The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

Xie Songlin also found a place to sit down in the circle where everyone was sitting. He took out the notebook that he had been using to take notes carefully along the way, and gently opened it. It was filled with various details of the inspection of the house just now.

He then cleared his throat and began, "Fellow villagers, Brother Lin showed us the houses here on the way here. They were all built in a unified manner, so the sizes and specifications are basically the same. With so many of us, it seems impractical to allocate a complete courtyard to each family, as the number of houses is limited."

Xie Songlin paused, looked around, and seeing that everyone was listening attentively, he continued, "My current opinion is that we should first distribute one unit per household. This way, there will be some left over. For families with larger populations, we can give them an extra unit. I see there's a lot of land around here that can be used for expansion. We'll ask the village head later. Those who want to build new houses can buy more land."

After Xie Songlin finished speaking about his ideas on house allocation, he glanced at everyone's faces with a questioning look. The initial allocation of houses was crucial, and no conflicts could arise later, so everyone's wishes had to be fully considered.

So, he raised his voice again and asked, "If everyone has no objection, I'll divide it like this?"

After hearing Xie Songlin's words, everyone was stunned for a moment, then looked at each other and began to discuss quietly. Some families with larger populations felt that allocating space based on population was reasonable, as it would ensure more spacious living spaces. Others were concerned about the possibility of uneven distribution, but felt that there seemed to be no better solution at the moment.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the scene was a bit solemn and expectant. Everyone was weighing the pros and cons of this distribution plan in their minds, and was waiting to see if anyone would be the first to express a different opinion.

Xie Songbai and his three brothers were the first to express their opinions: "I have no objection. I agree with Songlin's approach."

After a moment's thought, the village chief spoke up, "I have no objection. This is the best way to divide the land right now. If you have any objections, please speak up now and discuss it with us. But if you continue to criticize us after the division, I won't forgive you. We're supposed to live a good life in the village. We need to be considerate and cooperative with each other. We can't let this little thing cause unpleasantness. Do you understand?"

Everyone responded in unison: "I understand! Village Chief!"

The village chief looked at Xie Songlin and said, "Songlin's family is large, and it's all thanks to him that everyone was able to settle down here so smoothly. So I'm going to give him the three front courtyards. Do you all have any objections?"

"No objection, of course we have no objection." Xie Shou was the first to raise his hand in agreement. His benefactor Xie Ning was following Xie Songlin, so he naturally hoped that Xie Ning could live better.

"If there hadn't been pine forests along the way, we might not have gotten here."

"Then we must give the Songlin family the best place to live. We all agree!"

The others also expressed their agreement. Xie Songlin smiled a little embarrassedly: "Thank you very much, everyone. It has not been easy for everyone along the way. From today on, we can be considered to have officially settled here. As long as we work together, we will definitely live a good life in the future."

"Brother Songlin is right. We will be a family from now on. We will take care of each other and will definitely live a good life!"

"That's right, if everyone works together, this village will surely become more and more prosperous, and our lives will get better and better!"

After hearing what Xie Songlin said, everyone nodded in agreement. At this moment, the atmosphere on the scene was warm and enthusiastic, as if there was an invisible force that brought everyone together, and everyone's heart was filled with hope and enthusiasm.

Xie Songlin was delighted to see everyone so united. He smiled and said, "Then I'll start dividing the rooms now. You can all live in the order I've read the names."

Because the first three houses were allocated to Xie Songlin's family, Cheng Hui and Li did not go with them to divide the houses. They immediately started to pack up their things. Xie Lan and Xie Ning immediately followed to help. Everyone carried their bags. Xie Songlin took the lead and walked in front. Xie Wanxing and Xie Lin wanted to see the excitement of dividing the houses, so they followed Xie Songlin all the way.

"First, my mother and eldest brother and his family. Since they have a large family, they are divided into two sets. The courtyard in the back belongs to the village chief uncle, and then it is my fifth uncle's family. Your family has a large family, so you will also be divided into two sets..."

Afterwards, he led everyone to walk along the houses one by one. Every time he arrived at a house, he would read out the distribution of the houses accurately.

Just like that, as Xie Songlin read out the allocations all the way, the people who were assigned houses couldn't wait to go in and check the situation inside, and some had already started to clean up.

Finally, all the houses were distributed accurately. Only Xie Wanxing and a few others were left behind Xie Songlin, as well as Xie Dazhong who had been following him silently.

He stepped forward and said, "Dazhong, from now on you will be my brother, so come with me."

Xie Dazhong usually had a taciturn and tough image, but upon hearing this, his eyes actually reddened slightly: "Thank you very much, Songlin."

"Let's go back and pack up. We still have a lot of things to do later." Xie Songlin went up and patted Xie Dazhong on the shoulder, leading them back. The residence they were assigned was the first of all the houses. The location was really convenient. The house was in a conspicuous place. If someone in the village wanted to find Xie Songlin on weekdays, they could see his house at a glance.

Cheng Hui and Li had already roughly cleaned the first two courtyards, and the third courtyard was left for some people who had previously bought land on the small farm to live in.

However, the size of the courtyard was limited, with only three rooms in each. After some consideration, Xie Songlin made a unified arrangement. His children and Xie Ning squeezed into one room. Although the space was a bit cramped, the children were lively together and could take care of each other.

Cheng Hui, Xie Wanxing, and Li's mother and daughter squeezed into another room. All the female members of the family lived in one room.

Xie Kang, Xie Tai, Xie Dazhong and a few others followed Xie Songlin into the remaining room. They were not picky about the slightly crowded environment and just wanted to settle down first.

A special kitchen must be reserved in the remaining rooms. After all, eating is the most important thing, so there must be a dining room, and tables and chairs must be provided. We can't let everyone eat while standing or squatting. In addition, a room must be vacated to temporarily store luggage and other sundries to prevent things from being placed everywhere and making the yard messy.

In this way, these limited rooms can all be used for their own purposes. Although it is a bit compact, it can accommodate the family and their daily needs as much as possible.
