Siheyuan: Why is my crossing so ugly?

Chapter 15 Entering the Village to Build a House
After Comrade Xiao Du returned to the city, he went to Yin Lao Liu's house first, and knocked on the door at night to scare Yin Lao Liu enough.

A few words explained the situation. In order to perform well in front of Du Weiguo, Yin Laoliu already had almost enough people to work. Hearing this, he added a rush of work and was very happy. This month is considered Comrade Xiao Du's monthly subscription. .

Although he is good at craftsmanship, he doesn't work every day.

The houses in the countryside are simple. Xiao Du said that the village provides 8 strong laborers. The problem now is bricks, cement, glass, and wood.

Yes, Xiao Du is going to build two brick and tile houses for Aunt Zuo directly, just like that.

Yin Laoliu said that the foundation will be dug tomorrow afternoon, the brick house will be built the day after tomorrow, the beams and windows will be erected the day after tomorrow, and the kang will be made into chimneys one day, and the work can be basically completed in four days.

He can handle bricks, tiles, wood, linoleum, as long as the cement can arrive the day after tomorrow, and the glass can arrive the day after tomorrow, there will be no problem at all.

Rural houses are built with red bricks and red tiles, which is much cheaper, 140 for labor and materials for four days.

Xiao Du nodded in agreement, and made an appointment to meet directly at Xiao Du tomorrow morning.

Afterwards, Comrade Xiao Du went directly to Yu Huaihai's house and told him about this matter. Yu Huaihai's eyes turned red when he heard that, and Mr. Yu is also a passionate man.

I can't wait to go to Zuojia Commune to see Niu Niu now. As for some cement and glass, that guy's chest slapped loudly.

It's almost 10 o'clock, and the courtyard is closed.

So that night, Xiao Du didn't go back to the courtyard at all, and slept directly at Huaihai's house. The two rooms in his house are 70 square meters, and there is no furniture, which is quite generous.

This night was the most peaceful night for Comrade Xiao Du since he was reborn and time travelling. Maybe he was tired, or he felt at ease, but he slept very soundly anyway.

The next day was the weekend, early in the morning, as soon as the courtyard opened, Du Weiguo and Yu Huaihai rushed out on their bicycles, and directly picked up Xiangbei who was still sleeping in bed.

When the two of you said something to me, the blood that was incited to the north was boiling.

The three of them rushed out without even taking care of breakfast.

First, I went to the non-staple food store and bought 10 catties of fatty pork, soy sauce, salt, and miso. I passed by a supply and marketing cooperative and bought a pack of white rabbits, a can of malted milk, and a large production line.

Then I went to the Sanliang Store, where someone was on duty on weekends, and bought 100 catties of stick noodles, 20 catties of white flour, and 10 catties of soybean oil.

I went to the vegetable market again and bought 20 catties of vermicelli.

The three of them carried three sets and twenty-eight loads before they managed to get the things to the gate of the courtyard where Xiao Du was, sweating all over their foreheads.

Non-staple food stores, supply and marketing cooperatives, and vegetable markets are all paid by the son, and the grain stores are all paid by the son, as well as the follow-up cement and glass.

All other wages and materials are paid by Mr. Du.

At this time, yesterday's enthusiastic board master was already in place at this time, and all the goods were put on the board truck.

At this time, I happened to meet the third master coming out of the courtyard with a fishing rod and bucket in his hand. It seemed that he was going fishing.

The third uncle looked at a cart full of things, including noodles, fat meat, vermicelli, cigarettes, and big white rabbits, his eyes turned green at that moment.

"Hehe, Director Du, what song are you singing? Don't tell me you want to open a restaurant?"

"Hey, third master, my brother's house is repairing the house these few days, and we are going to help today. Are you going fishing?"

"Ah, yes, hehe, I have a rest today and go fishing for two rods."

Originally, the third master wanted to say a few words, but at this time, Yin Laoliu led a man, and the two of them rode over on a bicycle. Judging from their posture, they should be carpenters.

After saying hello to Yin Lao Liu, Comrade Xiao Du smiled at the third master and said:
"Third Master, then I wish you a successful start and a lot of harvest. The master worker is here, so I'll go there first."

"Come on, let me borrow your good words."

The third master stared helplessly at the cart of food, he was shameless after all, turned around and left.

Master Ban said with a smile: "That master just now, his eyes turned green, and he almost threw himself into my car."

Xiao Du smiled and said nothing, the carpenter that Master Yin brought was surnamed Cui, and he was also a skilled craftsman.

A group of 5 cars, plus a trolley, Mercedes-Benz on the streets in 1963, it was quite eye-catching.

It is not inferior to the Land Rover team of later generations.

Yu Huaihai's car was bought by his father this year, while Xiangbei's car was borrowed from their yard.

Walking halfway, Comrade Xiao Du's belly was like thunder. It wasn't a bad stomach, he was simply hungry. He is now in excellent physical condition, and the only side effect is that his appetite increased greatly, and he would feel hungry if he didn't eat a meal.

Last night and this morning, Xiao Du didn't eat anything, so he was going crazy hungry.

I couldn't resist anymore, Comrade Xiao Du, under the guidance of Mr. Ban, found a shop where he could eat. He ate 5 steamed buns and 2 bowls of tofu nao like a hungry wolf.

It didn't take 3 minutes in total, what a wolf!

Yu Huaihai and Xiangbei choked and rolled their eyes.

Eating like this is definitely unhealthy, but the situation is special.

The sixth son Yin, Master Cui, and Grandpa Ban didn’t come in to eat and waited outside. Comrade Xiao Du was always embarrassed and ate slowly.

At around 10 o'clock, a group of people came to Zuojia Commune in a mighty way. The shock of 5 bicycles appearing at the same time is almost as shocking as 5 Lamborghinis appearing at the same time compared with later generations.

As soon as Comrade Xiao Du arrived at the entrance of the village, he found Niu Niu standing there pretty, surrounded by a large group of wild children watching the fun.

Seeing the convoy led by Du Weiguo arrive, Niuniu cried at that moment: "Look, he didn't want me!"

Then he ran towards Du Weiguo, shouting while running: "Brother, brother!"

Xiao Du felt that his eye sockets were a little wet, so he quickly stopped the car, and just now he stood firm, Niuniu threw himself into his arms.

Thin ones, maybe not even 40 catties.

"Brother, they said you won't come, that I'm a loser, bastard, and that you don't care about me anymore!"

Niuniu cares about him, but there's nothing wrong with that. Xiao Du is still young, so he can't be called uncle!

"Listen to them farting, who said that? I'll beat him to death."

As he spoke, Comrade Xiao Du stood up straight, his eyes widened, and his face turned furious. The little kids who watched the excitement were scared away.

"Niuniu, this is brother Huaihai, and this is brother Beibei. They are all good friends of my brother, and they will all be your brothers in the future. You will have three brothers in the future, and no one will dare to bully you again."

"Niuniu, you are right, no one dares to bully you anymore." Yu Huaihai said.

"Niu Niu, I'll give you candy." Xiang Bei.

"Thank you, brother."

Seeing the sensible and well-behaved Niuniu, who is so pitifully thin, the hearts of the two brothers are about to break.

"Come on, Niuniu, let's go home, we're building a house today."

Comrade Xiao Du picked up Niuniu and put her on the beam carried by Erba Da.

Niu Niu should have never ridden a bicycle before. She was very frightened and happy, lying obediently on the handlebar like a kitten, holding tightly the big white rabbit given to the north. She had only seen this candy before. Never had it.

When we arrived at Aunt Zuo’s house, it was even more lively than yesterday’s scene. The walls were almost torn down. After all, it was daytime, and five bicycles and five city people came all at once.

There is also a cart full of food and drink. People in the village lamented that Mrs. Zuo had a good life, she met a nobleman, and the fortune is turning.
