Chapter 193 The Red Fruits Are Everywhere



Chapter 193 The Red Fruits Are Everywhere

The foundation has been laid and compacted, and now the building is being built. A group of people are bent over and busy working, it's very lively.

Chen An stood up and saw them. He immediately put down his work and shouted, "Mom, big brother!"

Mrs. Wu said distressedly, "Son-in-law, keep your hands for carpentry work. Don't help moving stones. Take a break when you need to. Be careful not to tire yourself out."

Chen An felt warm in his heart, and nodded with a smile: "I understand, mother!"

Cheng Yang curled his lips at Cheng Yue and said, "See, the son-in-law is still the closest to me!"

Cheng Yue just smiled without saying anything. She and Chen An took Wu and Cheng Yang for a walk, and talked about her own plans.

"This is a two-courtyard building. This side is the main gate. Going in is the front yard. Behind it is the back yard. There are the main house, the ear room and the wing room.

When the time comes, we will open a side door, and there will be a breeding farm outside. We will raise pigs, chickens, and ducks together, and there will be a vegetable garden over there..."

Although Mrs. Wu didn't understand what the term "second-floor room" meant, it did not affect her imagination. In short, the yard was very large, which could be seen just by looking at the foundation.

The more Cheng Yue talked, the more frightened she became. Her daughter said she wanted to build a bigger brick house, but she didn't say it would be this big!

Mrs. Wu took Cheng Yue's hand and whispered, "My daughter, how much money does this house cost?"

Cheng Yue said: "It cost about 120 taels to build the house."

Wu gasped, "So expensive! And it doesn't even count furniture?"

Other people's families build a few brick and tile houses, and the total cost is only thirty taels, but my daughter's house cost over a hundred taels?

For such a big house, the money for furniture might be enough for others to build their own house!

Cheng Yang reminded her, "Mom, my brother-in-law knows how to do carpentry work, so we can save some money on furniture."

Although he also felt that the house was too expensive, it was not that expensive considering there were so many houses.

Besides, Chen An is good at carpentry and can save some money.

Mrs. Wu slapped Cheng Yang hard again, "We have to buy wood from anywhere! How much can we save?"

Cheng Yang felt aggrieved. Why was he the one to be beaten again when this was about the house?

Cheng Yue comforted him, "Mom, don't worry about it. I have money, and I will build a big house so that we can live comfortably!

Besides, Xiaolin will get married and have children in the future, and the population will increase. Can't this house be passed down to the next generation?"

Mrs. Wu sighed and said, "I am just sighing. The foundation has been laid. What's the point of saying anything? But what you said is true. The money spent on building a house will not be wasted."

Cheng Yue took Wu's arm and said coquettishly, "Yes, mother, don't worry about it. I will pick you up when the house is built. I'm just afraid that you won't want to leave when you live there!"

Mrs. Wu was touched, but she still poked Cheng Yue on the forehead, "You are already a mother of three children, and you are still like this. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Cheng Yue smiled and said, "No matter how big he is, he is still my mother's treasure!"

Mrs. Wu awkwardly pushed Cheng Yue away and said, "You are the only one who talks sweetly! Well, now that we have seen the house, your elder brother and I will go home first. You can do whatever you need to do!"

Cheng Yue knew that Mrs. Wu was embarrassed, so she didn't say much. She went into the room and got some brown sugar and white sugar for them to take away.

Now, no matter what Cheng Yue gives her, as long as it is not too expensive, Mrs. Wu will not refuse it. Of course, she has to accept the child's filial piety!

Before leaving, Cheng Yang suddenly remembered his wife's instructions and said embarrassedly, "Little sister, your sister-in-law said that she will return all the fifteen taels to you when she has money at the end of the month."

His younger sister needed money to build a house, but they couldn't help at all. Even the money could only be paid back at the end of the month. As the eldest brother, he felt more and more ashamed the more he thought about it.

Cheng Yue knew what Cheng Yang was thinking, and said helplessly: "Brother, I'm not in a hurry to use it, I can pay it back slowly. If you take out 15 taels at once, what money will you have left? You will be in a hurry when you need it!"

Cheng Yang said firmly, "No way! I have to pay it back by the end of this month!"

Cheng Yue agreed: "Okay, okay, okay!"

Cheng Yang then grinned, "Then little sister, brother-in-law, mother and I will go home first!"

With that, the two of them waved and left.

They felt relieved after seeing it, and they didn’t need to come again next time. They could come back to see it after the house was built.

Mrs. Wu walked very fast, thinking about showing off to the old man when she got back, because she was the first one to see the house!

Not long after watching the two leave, several children who were learning carpentry came up. Chen An took the tools and continued teaching.

Cheng Yue hadn't accomplished anything the whole morning. Now that she finally had some time, she was just about to go to the kitchen to continue making pastries when she turned around and saw Chen Tong and Chen Ning coming back with two baskets of grass on their backs.

Eh? No! Take a closer look, these small leaves and red fruits, why do they look so familiar?

Cheng Yue stepped forward and took the baskets off the two people, then picked up a red fruit and squeezed it, and said happily: "Xiaotong, Xiaoning, where did you get this grass from?"

Chen Tong and Chen Ning didn't know why Cheng Yue was so happy, so they answered truthfully: "These red fruits are everywhere. We found two when we were digging the foundation. We gave them to the cows and pigs. We found that they liked them very much, so we went to the hillside to cut some more."

Cheng Yue: "..."

This is a medicinal herb, how can pigs and cows not like to eat it! What a waste of natural resources! Why didn't she find it a few days ago?
