Chapter 32 Borrowing money to build a house

Author: Seven taels of broken silver

The separation of the Cheng family this time was actually quite simple.

The family's money was in the hands of Old Man Cheng and Old Mrs. Zhao, and not a single copper was given to the Cheng family brothers. However, whether they worked or sold grain, all their money was confiscated. The grain harvested in the autumn was also confiscated.

Therefore, there is no need to divide the food.

But today, Ye Ning and several children shared two or three fish from each family.

The only good news is probably that you don’t have to pay anymore from now on.

In addition, there were still some unused homesteads in the village. With the quick help of the village chief, the Cheng brothers quickly selected a location. Cheng Erlang chose the homestead in the west of the village, where there was still open space near Dr. Zeng's house.

Parents in rural areas usually live with their eldest son, so Cheng Dalang's family naturally continued to live there.

Cheng Sanlang declined several times, and finally chose an open space in the west of the village. When it was Cheng Silang's turn to choose, there were no options on the west side of the village, so he had no choice but to choose the east side of the village.

At this point, the separation of the Cheng family finally came to an end.

The villagers who were lying on the wall of Cheng's house all dispersed and went home. When they were all gone, the village chief and Li Zheng grabbed the old man Cheng and explained a few more words. Isn't their partiality obvious to the villagers?

.

Mrs. Zhao was so angry that she went back to the house and lay down to sleep.

She doesn't cook and doesn't allow others to cook.

Hungry! All hungry!

In the entire Cheng family, Wulang was probably the only one who was very full because he ate a troublemaking duck. Now he had to sit lonely on the threshold and reflect on life.

Cheng Miaomiao looked at the wound on her father's forehead with some distress, and quickly asked him to sit down. She climbed onto the bench, puffed up her mouth and blew gently on his wound.

"With a breath, all the pain will fly away!"

Following her movements, a trace of golden divine power fell on his forehead, and the redness and swelling immediately faded a lot.

Cheng Erlang raised the corners of his lips, hugged her and sat her down in a funny way, and said matter-of-factly: "Okay, thank you Miaomiao."

I don't know if it was a psychological effect, but he actually felt that the burning pain in the wound was no longer that intense. The wound that wasn't painful at first was even less painful now.

Ye Ning fetched a basin of water from outside and carefully cleaned his wounds with a towel.

There was heat in her eyes, and Cheng Erlang held her wrist impatiently. Even without saying anything, the two of them understood each other's thoughts, and there was a burning feeling in their hearts.

"Are we moving somewhere else?"

At this time, Cheng Miaomiao's voice suddenly sounded.

Ye Ning took back her hand as if she had just woken up from a dream, her face was a little shy, and she pursed her lips and said: "Yes, we will live next door to Dr. Zeng's house. Are you happy, Miaomiao?"

Cheng Miaomiao clapped her hands in surprise: "Then you can steal the teacher!"

Two people: "..."

Looking at what he said, he was a little bit happy by the tone.

Cheng Erlang touched her head and corrected: "If Dr. Zeng agrees that you follow him, it won't be regarded as stealing from him, but you have to listen to Dr. Zeng's words, otherwise he may not be willing to teach you."

Cheng Miaomiao nodded casually. Even if Dr. Zeng didn't teach her, she could still identify what those medicinal materials were.

She kicked her feet, held her chin in her hands, looked up at him and asked, "Then when can we move out?"

Ye Ning paused for a moment, then turned to look at Cheng Erlang.

Cheng Erlang's eyes were a little gloomy. After all, he had lived here for more than 20 years, and suddenly he was separated from his parents, eldest brothers, and younger brothers. He had to move out if he wanted to, and he was still a little panicked for a while.

But he soon adjusted his mood, because he was about to have his own little home.

Cheng Erlang thought for a long time and said: "I saw someone harvesting rice today. Now I may still be able to hire people to build a house, but after a while, I won't be able to do it due to busy farming. What do you think, Aning?"

Ye Ning said without hesitation: "I want to build it before harvesting and move it over."

If we stay here any longer, we will get tired of each other and cause more troubles, so we might as well move away as soon as possible.

After the province was over, they started to get into ugly quarrels over various things.

"I agree!" Cheng Miaomiao immediately raised his hands excitedly and added in a sweet voice: "I also want to dig up the small trees in the backyard!"

That myrtle plant will bear fruit soon.

She jumped off the stool happily and started to look around in the house. She had just heard that she could take things away from the house, so she wanted to take away her little backpack, grandma's sewing box...oh, there are still

I have private money!

Cheng Miaomiao's eyes lit up and she happily handed the three coins to Cheng Erlang.

Those dark eyes were full of seriousness: "Dad, use this money to build a house."

The village chief's uncle said before that building a house requires buying a lot of things. She is a member of this family and should contribute!

After saying this, she puffed up her cheeks and sighed, and said dullly: "I sold a lot of money for the chrysanthemums, but I gave them all to grandma, and I don't have any left."

Cheng Erlang rubbed her little head.

He looked up at Ye Ning again, and saw that she looked a little worried, so he comforted her: "It's okay, we can borrow the money first, and then we can pay it back after the rice is harvested and sold."

He had already thought about it before. He could sell bamboo baskets, Aning could also weave tassels and sell them for money, and they could go up the mountain together to pick up some mountain products to sell.

And they don’t have to pay anything later, as long as they work harder, they can pay off the debt quickly.

Ye Ning pinched the handkerchief and smiled at him: "Okay."

Cheng Miaomiao looked between the two of them, a little confused as to why grandma didn't tell her dad that she had money from Aunt Zhuang, but she must have a reason for not telling her.

But it's still so sad that her little duck is gone.



The night is getting darker and the moonlight is cold.

Meng was tossing and turning on the bed but couldn't fall asleep. She opened her eyes and looked at the gray wall. She couldn't help pinching her man's arm and lowered her voice: "Master, why did you say we won't separate the family today?"

Cheng Sanlang turned over and said vaguely: "If I also say that we will separate our families, our family will not be able to get these three acres of land."

Meng didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Seeing that he continued to sleep and snored again, Meng became more and more frightened as she thought about it, so she quickly woke him up and asked.

"Our family has one acre of paddy field and two acres of dry land, both of which are good fields. Look at the three acres of land in the hands of the fourth brother, which are not too fertile. It's because he stood up so early and said that we would separate the family. My parents didn't

So happy."

Cheng Sanlang turned around and looked at her impatiently.

He snorted coldly: "Just do whatever I say from now on. My parents now think that we really don't want to separate our family, so we will move out later. They must have money in their hands, so how can they use the money to build a house?"

Gotta get it.”

Meng suddenly realized that he had even thought about building a house.

"Master, you are too smart!"

"My parents said that if you don't divide the money, you won't divide the money. So how can we conjure up so much money to build a house and buy things out of thin air? You are still the best, Sanlang!"

Cheng Sanlang held her neck and kissed her.

He said in a daze: "Go to sleep, let Goudan hang out in front of my mother tomorrow, so that my mother will remember how good we are."
