Chapter 86 Dream House
None of the brothers and sisters could convince anyone, and they argued for a long time.

In fact, the best way is to build more houses. Wouldn’t it be better to have one room per person?

But the family didn't have that much money. Although I had a savings of more than five taels from selling the newly harvested rice, the money was not used, so I had to save some money.

Otherwise, what if there is an emergency and you can’t get the money?

In addition, Lin Chunniang had another hidden consideration.

A woman will get married eventually. She herself has reached the age of marriage, Cuiniang is also fifteen, and Yuniang will be old in a few years.

By then they would all be married, and the two rooms that had been expanded at home, plus the rooms vacated by their sisters, would be suitable for the three older brothers to live in when they got married.

Lin Xi slapped the table with her little hands and said with great force: "Build a new house."

Lin Chunniang smiled and hugged her over, "Xibao, you think I don't think about the new house? But our family doesn't have that much money. Do you know what money is?"

Lin Xi calmly took out a gold bar from his pocket.

It's from Li Mi's treasure chest.

She took one out and hid it on her body in case of emergency. Wouldn't it be needed now?

The Lin family were all dazzled by the golden gold bar, and were so shocked that they were speechless for a moment.

Only Yu Niang asked confusedly: "What is this?"

Lin Xi's voice was clear: "Gold bars and money can buy a lot of delicious food."

Jade Girl: “Wow, money!”

She took the gold bar from Lin Xi's hand and touched it curiously. This was the first time she saw money that looked like this. It was so beautiful.

Lin Chunniang finally reacted, but she still couldn't take her eyes away from the gold bar, "Xibao, where did this gold bar... come from? It couldn't have been given to you by Young Master Lin, right?"

Lin Xi looked up proudly: "I picked it up."

The Lin family: "..."

They quickly calculated in their minds that the gold bar looked like ten taels, which would be 100 taels in silver!

Xibao picked up 100 taels of silver!

It’s worth ten years of hard work in farming!
Lin Chunniang was crazy about it, but she still refused with difficulty, "Xibao, if you pick it up, it's yours. We can't use it. I'll keep it for you, and I'll give it to you as a dowry when you grow up."

Why was Lin Xi willing to stay in the Lin family and secretly help them several times?

It's because Lin Chunniang and everyone in the Lin family are upright and will not bully and squeeze her just because she is young.

If she were picked up by someone like the Liu family, she might not be able to stay for a whole day and would have to find a way to leave.

Of course, the Liu family would not take back a girl like her. In their eyes, girls are losers and not worth spending money on.

The Lin family treated her with sincerity. Although she could not reciprocate the same sincerity, she could help them within her ability.

Most importantly, she wanted a room to herself.

Lin Dayou also expressed his position: "Yes, we can't use Xibao's money."

People's hearts are not enough. Once this hole is opened, they may not be able to help but continue to use Xibao's money in the future.

The more times they do it, Xibao will suffer the consequences, and they themselves will easily develop a greedy temper.

If Xibao's money was not used by them, they might blame her in turn.

This is predictable.

Before his death, his father told him to be upright and upright, so that he can go far and long.

At that time, he was still a little confused about its meaning, but now he suddenly understood it.

Daddy is afraid that they will not be able to control themselves when they encounter temptation.

Lin Xi slipped off Lin Chunniang's lap, pretended to be angry and sat on the ground, kicking her legs: "I want to live in a big house when we build a new house!"

I learned this trick from Liu Zhaodi.Lin Chunniang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she quickly pulled her up and said, "Okay, okay, let's build a new house and give Xibao a big house."

The worst thing is to spend more money.

But she still had no intention of using her gold bars.

Lin Xi thought she had agreed, so she stuffed the gold bar into her hand, climbed onto the bed, lay on the low table and grabbed a brush to write and draw.

I plan to design my new house myself.

At this time, there was no homestead land in the countryside, so villagers would just enclose the land and build houses as long as they were not too excessive.

The Lin family lives in a remote area. There are not many people nearby, and they can plan within a few hundred meters.

First of all, there must be a strong wall, preferably two or three meters high, so that if someone wants to cause trouble, they will not be able to drive straight in like before, and it will be like entering an uninhabited land.

A well needs to be dug in the front yard so that we don’t have to fetch water from the river in the future and it will be convenient for doing laundry, cooking and so on.

I also want to build a pavilion. In the summer, I can sit in the pavilion and enjoy the shade, watching the stars and blowing the night breeze. It makes me feel comfortable just thinking about it.

In winter you can barbecue in the pavilion.

A promenade should be built next to the pavilion, and a circle of grapes should be planted along the promenade. The grapevines will climb up to the top of the gallery and cover it densely, forming a natural green parasol.

……

In the last ten years of the last ten years, life has been precarious and homeless. No one knows how deep Lin Xi's longing for a fixed residence is.

Now that we have the opportunity, of course we have to build the ideal house.

I imagined the house countless times in my mind and dreams. Don't be too smooth when writing. It only took half a day for Lin Xi to draw the design.

My hands are just a little sore.

Lin Xi showed the design drawing to Lin Chunniang.

Lin Chunniang was taking Sanfu and Yuniang to beat dates in the yard.

This jujube tree, which has not produced fruit for three years, has produced great results this year. The jujubes are many and big, and they are bright red, hanging on the branches like small lanterns. It is very pleasant.

Seeing Xibao waddling towards her like a little duck, Lin Chunniang quickly put down the bamboo pole in her hand, stretched out her long arms and picked her up easily.

"Oh, Xibao can walk now, it's really amazing."

They didn't teach her, so Xibao just left on her own.

This child is not only a lucky star, but also very smart. I am afraid he is not a purple star in the sky.

Lin Xi showed her the design drawing, "New house."

Lin Chunniang looked at her little hand and exclaimed: "Xibao, did you draw this? It's so beautiful."

On the paper was drawn a small courtyard with two entrances, white walls and blue tiles, which looked strong and beautiful.

The front yard is spacious, with a well, a pavilion, and a grape arbor. There are two rooms against the east wall, a stove room, a firewood room and a utility room.

Facing the courtyard gate are three bright and spacious main rooms, the middle room is the main room, and the east room and the west room are the bedrooms.

There is a back door in the northwest corner of the main house, leading to the backyard. The layout of the backyard is similar to that of the front yard.

There are two wing rooms on the east side and three main rooms on the north side, for the three girls in the family.

There is a small building in the south that can be entered and exited alone. This small building was prepared by Lin Xi for herself.

Each bedroom has an independent bathroom for easy access to the toilet and shower.

As for how to implement the toilet and pipes in the bathroom, it's easy. Just draw the drawings and give them to Lin Wushang, and ask him to find a craftsman to build them.

The material can be made of ceramic or pottery. As long as you have a mold, I believe it will not be difficult to bake it.

Lin Xi also drew many flowers, plants and trees in the backyard, which will become a small garden from now on, so this drawing is not a strict design drawing, but a panoramic view of her ideal house.
