Chapter 62 Building a New House

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Jingshan looked at her meaningfully.

Jiang Hao covered Mrs. He's mouth and lowered her head to pretend to be dead.

Anyway, if she doesn't sleep with Xiao Jingshan, she won't be able to have a baby. Sooner or later, she will be asked, so she might as well just make an excuse and say it's not easy to get pregnant.

Even if they have sex, she doesn't plan to give birth right away. She is still young and is prone to dystocia.

When she said this, Wang Wu and others looked embarrassed.

Thinking that they had touched Jiang Hao's sore spot, each of the young men hesitantly apologized.

"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, we rough guys didn't know what to say, so we just made a joke with Brother Xiao. Don't take it to heart."

I couldn't help complaining in my heart, it's only been two months since we got married, why are we so anxious?

Jiang Hao saw them apologizing one after another, and just as he was about to say something, he heard Xiao Jingshan say, "Didn't I tell you that you are prone to dystocia at your young age, so don't worry."

That look was long and meaningful.

Jiang Hao accidentally bit the tip of his tongue and was so painful that he almost burst into tears.

Who is anxious? ! !
A few people on the side winked and looked at Brother Xiao, who was so good at talking that his wife was moved to tears.

It seems that they will have to learn more in the future to marry such a beautiful wife.

Seeing that Mrs. He was very drunk, Jiang Hao dared to let people continue to drink. He looked at Xiao Jingshan with tears in his eyes, "Third brother, I will send you back first, and I will wait for you at Dongjiekou."

How could Xiao Jingshan leave her alone? He said to a few people: "Brothers, please help me cover. I will send the people there."

Wang Wu and others nodded repeatedly.

There are differences between men and women, Xiao Jingshan couldn't help Mrs. He, and he didn't want to tire Jiang Hao, so he simply borrowed a cart from the stall.

Fortunately, Mrs. He told Jiang Hao where her family lived before, so they were able to send the person back smoothly.

It was Mrs. He's eldest daughter who opened the door. She thanked Jiang Hao repeatedly and invited Jiang Hao to come in as a guest.

Jiang Hao didn't go in, but followed Xiao Jingshan around the streets a few times. On the way home, his head was as low as a quail's.

Sure enough, Xiao Jingshan still mentioned it.

"Stop telling lies about being unfit to conceive, otherwise it will spread and it will give you a bad reputation. How will you know if it will work if you haven't tried it."

Jiang Hao choked for a moment, blushed slightly and muttered, "Let them talk, anyway, my reputation was not good before."

Xiao Jingshan turned around and saw her pretty face, his Adam's apple moved.

He has such a strong body, how could he not be able to plant seeds?

……

The first month of the year was just gone, and it was February and March in the blink of an eye.

The weather is getting warmer, and there is a hint of green in the countryside.

Wu Jinsong sent someone to give him a dividend, which was a full 1000 taels of silver, which almost blinded Jiang Hao.

Xiao Jingshan's value also rose, from a fast catcher to a fast catcher, and his monthly silver rose by another tael.This gave the couple another layer of understanding of Wu Jinsong's abilities.

Of course, plans to build new houses are also on the agenda.

Xiao Jingshan had found the craftsman who built the house in advance, and the new courtyard was planned to be built next to the original courtyard.

For this reason, the village chief even came to persuade Xiao Jingshan to let him go to the village and live with his fellow villagers.

Jiang Hao and Xiao Jingshan agreed that this place was good, it was vast and quiet.

Before building the house, Jiang Hao made a special trip to Gaoliang Town and ordered a few pots from his elder brother. Otherwise, it would be difficult to cook when there were so many people, and there were also pots specifically for hot pot.

The rule at this time is that the head of the family has to take care of the food, and there are two meals a day.

Before starting the work, the master must come to the owner's house to discuss and decide on how many rooms to build and how big they will be over the dinner table before starting work.

So Jiang Hao was busy in the kitchen after breakfast, and Xiao Jingshan also asked for leave and did not go to the Yamen.The chef Jiang Hao ordered four dishes for lunch, namely braised pork, braised pork, braised chicken, and stir-fried rabbit.

Yes, it's all meat.

There is no way, who knows that the rule at this time is that the owner of the house with more meat and vegetables will appear generous.

Before noon, Master Liang came and was entertained by Xiao Jingshan in the courtyard.

The Xiao family did not have a main room to entertain guests, and it was not suitable for them to sleep in the room. The weather was getting warm, so they simply set up a table in the yard.

Master Liang was sitting in the yard of the Xiao family with some regrets. How big of a house could this family build if they were so poor?

All cats have been waiting for the spring to earn money to support their wives and children all winter long.

"Master Liang, you have tea, lunch will be ready soon." Jiang Hao brought two bowls of tea and went to the kitchen to continue working.

In rural areas, women generally do not sit at the table when discussing matters.

"Xiao Laosan, how many rooms do you plan to build in this house and how big is it?" Master Liang took a sip of tea and asked tentatively, thinking about how to push Xiao Jingshan later.

It was winter before, and there was no work to do. He was so excited that he decided to build a house for the Xiao family without finding out which Xiao family it was.

He is a well-known big worker in eight villages across ten miles and eighty miles. He has dozens of people under his command, and everyone is counting on him for food.

If the Xiao family builds fewer houses, he won't even be able to shout at his subordinates. Wouldn't this offend people?

Xiao Jingshan saw Master Liang's intention and directly took out the drawings drawn in advance from his arms and spread them out in front of the two masters.

"Just follow this picture, Master Liang, and see what's wrong?"

Master Liang was stunned on the spot.

The Xiao family wants to build such a big yard?

He immediately regained his energy. After seeing it clearly, he couldn't help but say, "Others are fine, but this is the courtyard wall..."

"Oh, guard against wolves." Xiao Jingshan said casually.

Master Liang's mouth twitched as he looked at the three-meter wall marked on the drawing.

However, in such a big yard, the people under him were very busy, and Master Liang suddenly became warm to Xiao Jingshan.

When Jiang Hao was served and Master Liang tasted it, his attitude became even warmer.

He praised Jiang's good workmanship again and again, saying that he could bring people to start work tomorrow.

Jiang Hao just arrived with the last dish, "Don't worry about the house now, what we mean is to build the courtyard wall first."

In rural areas, anything big can be spread for ten miles, and courtyard walls can also isolate some people from pink eye.

Although Master Liang was puzzled, he would do whatever the master said.

After this meal, Master Liang's mouth was full of oil, and he was extremely satisfied. When he returned, he went to the home of a good craftsman to inform him, and he brought more than thirty people to Xiao's house to work early the next morning.

Xiao Jingshan had already painted the courtyard wall. It would take several days to just build the walls of a large courtyard of several tens of meters. The wages paid were high, and the craftsmen who came to work were very happy.

It was a bit difficult for Jianghao to cook for more than thirty people by himself. Tian Cuihua and her daughter were also called to help by her, and the Zhao family's father and son were also called by Xiao Jingshan to do small jobs.

The Zhao family has a small amount of land and a large number of people. All the work in the fields has been done, and it is idle to be idle. They have to recruit small laborers anyway. The two families are close, so the wealth does not go to other people's fields.

Jiang Hao and Tian Cuihua were busy in the kitchen. Tian Cuihua and Zhao Xuehua were responsible for the noodles. She was responsible for cooking and Qiuling was responsible for lighting the fire.

For lunch, she prepares stir-fried bacon with cabbage and eats it with crotch noodles.

Trouser belt noodles are a noodle dish that every household in this area makes. As the name suggests, the noodles are as wide as a trouser belt.

The meat was still the wild boar that Xiao Jingshan hunted before. She dried most of the meat to make sausages, which was easy to preserve.

This year, the family is almost tired of eating, and it is just for the craftsmen who are working.
