Chapter 222 Building Village Road

Because there is a shortage of craftsmen, when other families in the town do carpentry, the labor costs will be pushed up. Ye Zushun can at least have two or three taels of silver a month, and his son’s education does not cost money. The two daughters also earn some money by doing needlework. The family raises some chickens, ducks, and grows some vegetables. Unlike in the town, where everything is bought, the money saved in a month is actually more than in the town. !
Ye Zushun is very content: Yubao is studying at the door of his house, and often goes home to persuade his mother-in-law and daughter. Recently, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law scold him and dislike him much less often.

Seeing that according to this posture, the debts should be paid off this year, and the big tiled house might be rebuilt next year. Ye Zushun felt that the decision to return to the village was absolutely right!
After returning home, Erniang Ye pulled Ye Zushun into the house, and whispered about making shoes for Ye Zhen: After all, it was the first time in history, and she was still a little nervous. Ask the man for his opinion.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zushun nodded directly: "This is good! If you have the time, make a few more pairs. Make it for her four siblings, and Lu Chengze, who is also your niece and son-in-law. When they get engaged, you also If you don’t follow the ceremony, let’s do it together.”

Ye Erniang was stunned for a moment, very surprised: "You don't object?"

Ye Zushun was also stunned for a moment, and when he understood what his mother-in-law wanted to say, he couldn't help laughing bitterly: "I never opposed you and her! It's just that in the past, no matter what I said, you... "Will you listen?
Before she finished speaking, Erniang Ye already understood, and she glanced at the man with sawdust on his head and body with a complicated expression.

These days, the man who works as a carpenter outside sees his back bent a lot, he is really tired!

Although my three mothers have been doing needlework recently to help supplement the family income, the real support for the family's income is the money earned by Ye Zushun as a carpenter.

The man who never grunted, didn't say any complaints after encountering an accident, just went out to do things, and handed over the money to his wife when he came back.

Maybe before, I was really too cruel to him...

Feeling guilty for her own man, Ye Erniang patted the sawdust on Ye Zushun's body with a towel, told him that the kitchen had boiled the bath water for him, then turned and went to the back room, and asked Ye Yuzhen and Ye Yucui to take out the soles of his shoes together.

How long will she be busy making five pairs of shoes by herself?Of course, two daughters must be called.

Ye Yuzhen was not happy at first, Ye Erniang glared at her: "Why don't you think about it, if everyone in Yejia Village knows that we have a bad relationship with Ye Zhen, what will happen after your marriage with Yu Cui?"

Ye Yuzhen immediately stopped talking.

She also heard recently that since Ye Family Village became rich, a matchmaker inquired about whether there were unmarried girls of the right age in Ye Family Village. The matchmakers are gone!
If it weren't for the fact that there were no secrets in the village, there would naturally be women who would spread the word to her family, but Ye Yuzhen didn't know about it yet.

She has never been so panicked like recently: If you can't get along with Ye Zhen, will it affect her finding a husband's family? !Maybe you won't be able to get married? !
But think about it again, isn't it because of the deadlock between my family and Ye Zhen's family when Yuanwai Liu's family in the town withdrew their marriage? !
Ye Yuzhen shrank her head and obediently took the shoe soles handed over by her mother, and honestly began to accept the shoe soles.

Ye Yucui silently took the other pair of soles for Ye Ying, and was about to start putting on the soles.

Ye Yuzhen: "Why don't you help me take this one first, and then take the other one?"

Ye Yucui glanced at the pair of shoe soles in Ye Yuzhen's hand, and said calmly: "The soles made by the two people are different, and the stitches are different. It is better to make the same pair of shoes by one person."

Ye Yuzhen saw that it was indeed the case: the soles of Ye Yucuina's shoes had diagonally arranged stitches, which were finer and more neat, while the soles of her own shoes had much wider stitches and were a little messy...

Well, after such a comparison, it’s no wonder that the shoes made by myself are not so popular among the students of Hongye Academy. Every time they sell, the shoes sold by mothers and sisters sell faster.

Ye Yuzhen stopped talking.

Ye Zhen didn't have time to pay attention to the little thoughts of the two families, she wanted to build roads, roads in the village.

The road from Hongye Town to Hongye Academy at the entrance of the village was repaired before, and now she wants to repair the road in the village.

However, the roads in this village are not their own after all. The first thing is to get the consent of each household, and the second point is not to let each household feel that they deserve to pay for road repairs if they have money.

What is love and what is duty, Ye Zhen has always been more concerned about things.

So Ye Zhen asked Tianfeng to invite the village chief, patriarch, and elders to come over for dinner and discuss road construction.

Although Ye Zhen is just a little girl who is less than 13 years old, but I don't know when, the village head, patriarch and other old people who are very credible in the village have treated Ye Zhen as a serious adult .

Can an ordinary 13-year-old girl open such a big Hongye Academy?

Can an ordinary 13-year-old girl pave the road from Hongye Academy to Hongye Town with bluestone slabs without asking the village to pay a penny?

Would an ordinary 13-year-old girl think of repairing so many houses on both sides of Qingshiban Road, and then rent them out at a high price?
Can an ordinary 13-year-old girl bring up the three jerk brothers in the family in a year?

Even the elders in the entire Yejia Village and even Hongye Town, no one has such abilities!

Such a little girl is a very important figure in the eyes of the village chief, patriarch, and elders!

So when Ye Zhen sent Tian Feng over to treat her to dinner, the village chief, clan chief, and clan elders all expressed that they would be there on time.

When it was almost time for dinner, the village head, the head of the clan, and the elders of the clan came over one after another.

Ye Zhen didn't talk about business, and invited everyone to sit down for dinner first.

When the cooks put the delicious meals on the table, the village head, the patriarchs, and the elders all sighed in their hearts: Sure enough, life is better, and now even the cooks are hired.

Look at the dishes on this table?Braised fish, spicy chicken, toothpick beef, roast duck...

This dish is full of color, flavor and taste!

Where can ordinary people afford such a meal?Even going to Yanguilou to eat is nothing more than that, right?
Ye Zhen also had no choice: I go out for a long time, if no one at home cooks, what will the rest of the people eat?
