"I already have a lot of adobe bricks piled up. Let's use them to build a few big stoves. Then I'll borrow a few big iron pots from the village chief, and that'll be enough."
Shen Dali was very thoughtful. This way it will be faster.
A few people did what they said and went out to see if they could get help. Before leaving, they packed up the dried calamus and plantain seeds.
Let Lin Ting take it to sell when he returns to the county.
There were only a few calamus plants left by the river after Shen Dali and Yang Xiuxiu took them all. They left some for reproduction so that they could build their house with peace of mind.
Lin Ting put Changpu on the carriage, then went home to pack some clothes for Shen Wanyi and got ready to go out.
When she turned around inadvertently, she saw Shen Rou hiding aside, eavesdropping on her conversation with Shen Dali and others.
Lin Ting raised his eyebrows. As long as they didn't make trouble, it was okay to listen.
"Mom, are you going to take Xiaobao to see Daddy?"
Shen Wanyi was eating a cake and looked up at Lin Ting in a vague voice.
"Yes, take Xiaobao to accompany Daddy."
Lin Ting pulled Shen Wanyi into the carriage.
As for the Shen family, things were in an uproar.
"Grandma, don't sleep. I found out how Lin Ting and the others make money."
Ever since returning to the village, Shen Rou has wanted to go back to the county every moment, but she is short of money. There are still ten days left this month before Shen Jizu can take up the position of chief clerk. She is so miserable.
"Oh, what methods can their family use to make money? It's just charity from kind people."
Shen's mother has always been unwilling to believe that Shen Dali's family became rich after leaving her, and it was just a matter of eating a few pieces of meat.
"Mom, this time it's real. They've even hired someone to build the foundation. They're going to start building the house tomorrow."
Shen Jizu was very jealous. He hadn't even recovered yet, so why should Shen Dali recover first?
"What did you say? He's really going to build a house?"
Mother Shen didn't want to sleep anymore and picked up a palm-leaf fan from the bedside to fan herself.
"Grandma, I just heard Lin Ting and my uncle and aunt say that she bought the slope from the Tian family and wanted to hire someone to dig it up.
Look, that vegetable patch is almost as big as our yard, and we have to dig out the slope. How big a house would we have to build?
In the county, the houses with such large foundations are all two-entry and two-exit houses."
Buy a slope? Hire someone?
It seems that they have some money. Mother Shen really can't figure out how they make the money.
"Rou'er, tell me, how did they make money?"
Shen Rou proudly put her hands on her hips, as if she had discovered a huge secret.
"Didn't Third Uncle go to the river every day to dig up water plants? It turns out they weren't eating them, but taking them to the county to sell.
It seems that a lot of silver must have been sold. Lin Ting and Shen Qingzhou have not been seen these days. It turns out that they went to Wanhetang to treat their legs.
"Grandma, think about it, they're using it to treat their legs and buy slopes to build houses, so this water grass must be very expensive."
Shen's mother angrily slapped the bed with a fan. Shen Dali had such a good way to make money, but he didn't tell her.
"Damn it, Rou'er, did you hear where they sold the aquatic plants?"
This?
Shen Rou didn't hear clearly.
But she was very sure that Shen Dali and his family made their fortune by selling aquatic plants.
"Grandma, water plants can be used as spices, so of course they are sold to restaurants and hotels.
This is a great opportunity to make a fortune. No one in the village has discovered it yet. Let's go dig some water plants. Dad, Mom, Grandma, don't miss this opportunity."
The whole family felt that what Shen Rou said made sense. Since Shen Dali didn't tell them, they would go find a buyer themselves.
Since aquatic plants are so profitable, any restaurant in the county will definitely be vying for them.
"Ji Zu stays home and reads. Xu Shi goes to the river to dig up water plants. Rou'er, go call the second brother's family back. Go to the river and pull up the water plants and bring them home."
Xu didn't want to work at first, but when she thought about the money she could earn from doing this, she immediately changed her clothes, put on her backpack and ran away.
As long as they have money, they can move to the county again. How great is that?
Lin Ting had no idea what happened in the Shen family compound.
She took Shen Wanyi back to the county and bought her her favorite osmanthus cake.
When he saw Shen Qingzhou again, the little guy ran to the wheelchair, hugged Shen Qingzhou's arm and started crying.
"Daddy, are you in pain? Xiaobao doesn't want daddy to be in pain."
Shen Qingzhou rubbed her head, turned the wheelchair, and wiped her tears with both hands.
"With your mother here, Daddy doesn't feel any pain at all."
"But daddy is not well yet, Xiaobao, give daddy a blow job."
Shen Wanyi has two pigtails on her head. She has been eating well recently and her skin looks much more radiant.
"Wanyi, come sit here and let dad take a good look at you. Don't worry, your mom said dad will get better."
Lin Ting packed up the things he brought from home while watching the father and daughter having fun together.
This home is just so simple and ordinary, and it is wonderful.
"Shen Qingzhou, the foundation work for the house has already begun. Have you drawn the design for the house? If not, we can only dig the slope first."
Shen Qingzhou let Shen Wanyi play by himself. He turned the wheelchair and took out a piece of paper from the bedside and showed it to Lin.
"I roughly calculated the area, and considering the small slope where Tian Wang lives, I can build this house."
Lin Ting took the blueprint and looked at it. It was a very large courtyard house.
The main room has an annex on each side.
Next are the east and west wing rooms, and next to the two wing rooms is the ear room. The ear room faces inward, and there is a corridor built on the courtyard part.
The corridor is connected to the hanging flower gate, forming a courtyard with one entrance.
A thatched hut was built in the southeast corner outside the hanging flower gate, with a screen wall at the entrance and a back gate.
Forming a courtyard with two entrances and two exits.
The yard is relatively simple, but every corner of the eaves is beautifully designed. Shen Qingzhou is very good at embellishment, and the house looks majestic.
“I like this yard, so I’ll build it according to your design. However, as for the size, we’ll have to wait until the slope is dug.
I'll ask a craftsman to take measurements and then improve the size of the house according to your design."
Lin Ting felt that the area designed in Shen Qingzhou's drawings was not much different from the actual area, and could be replicated.
Lin Ting sat at the window and stared at the drawings carefully. The pink sunset outside the window became her background.
Shen Qingzhou's lips curled up. Seeing such a beautiful scene, he suddenly wanted to draw a picture for Lin Ting.
He seemed to be a little dependent on Lin Ting.
I don’t know when it started, but I often stare at her in a daze, and sometimes my mind is full of random thoughts.
As long as Lin Ting recognized any of his qualities, he would be extremely happy.
For example, Lin Wen heard that she liked the drawings he designed, and he even remembered her jokingly saying that she liked her abdominal muscles.
"Daddy, Mommy, Xiaobao wants a hug."
Shen Wanyi, who was only three years old, instinctively made her request.
Lin Ting smiled and turned around, ready to hug her, but before she put down the drawings, she saw Shen Qingzhou reach out and pick her up.
He let Shen Wanyi sit on the armrest of his wheelchair, with her little head resting on Shen Qingzhou's shoulder, and fell into a deep sleep.
The breeze caressed the windowsill, the setting sun penetrated the hair, and the three of them enjoyed the quietness of the afterglow. At this moment, the sunset glow was all eclipsed.
