Chapter 187 New Home
One of the strong men led Su Mo and the others to the east end of the village, where there were three mud houses in disrepair.

In front of the house are weeds as tall as a person, which have obviously not been taken care of for a long time.

"You stay here, don't cause trouble, don't run away, otherwise you will reap the rewards."

Yan Conling asked crisply: "Uncle, did we choose the house at random?"

Yan Congling was naturally cute, her voice was crisp and sweet, and her screams made the strong man's heart melt.

Originally, this strong man had no good impression of the exiled prisoners.

Those who were exiled were all those who had committed crimes.

There were also prisoners who were exiled in the past. At that time, Ma Defa treated them equally and wanted to influence them with love.

But those people always had a condescending attitude and looked down upon everyone. They would not say curse words and even teased the widow. Many people in the village were bullied.

Later, it was Ma Defa who ordered them to be driven out of the village and left to fend for themselves.

It is said that without the protection of the village, the exiled prisoners soon fell ill and died.

So from then on, the villagers didn't have a good impression of the exiled prisoners.

It can even be said to be disgusting.

But this little baby's milky voice is not annoying at all.

The strong man's voice also softened: "Yes, the houses in this area have been granted to you. You can live in these three houses as you like."

Then the strong man took Su Mo and the others to see the land allocated to them.

Earth is the foundation of survival, and everyone has it.

At this time, productivity was low, so the amount of land was increased to solve the problem of food and clothing.

Su Mo remembered reading in miscellaneous histories that each person was allocated three to five acres of land, depending on the situation in each place.

Apparently, Mahu Village is poor.

There isn't much land either.

Su Mo and the others were allocated three acres of land each.

In the second room, there are Zhang Guilan, Yan Yi, Su Mo, Wang An'an, and Yan Congling, plus Yan Congkuan, Wang Feng, Yan Ming, and Yan Congxin, for a total of nine people.

A total of 27 acres of land were allocated.

Moreover, the land allocated to Su Mo and the others was really not very good.

It is estimated that even if it is cultivated, it will not survive.

It stands to reason that when seeing a place like this, the exiled prisoners would be very angry and would argue.

Strong men are also prepared for this.

But Su Mo and the others were not angry, and even thanked the strong man.

The strong man wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

Damn it, these exiled prisoners used to be either high-ranking officials or dignitaries, and all of them were domineering. Today, there is someone who has no airs and even wants to thank him?
As soon as the strong man left, Su Mo and the others started to take action.

A home must feel like a home.

……

Another strong man led the people from the Yan family's main house to the southeast.

It's not that far away from Su Mo and the others, but it's not like you can't see them when you look up.

But this strong man was not so lucky.

Tang Si and Lin Meng'an didn't look down on strong men at all.

I feel that strong men are typical mud-legged people.

Even if they are exiled, they are not comparable to these mud-legged people.

Lin Meng'an immediately became unhappy when he saw that Tsuchiya was assigned.

"How dare you give us a house like this?"

The strong man also looked down upon these exiled prisoners.

They've all been exiled, and they still can't tell how much they weigh, so they're making noise here?

"You can't help it." The strong man responded calmly.

Tang Si asked: "I see there are several brick houses over there, can we live there?"

The strong man rolled his eyes and cursed in his mind: How many exiles still want to live in a brick house?I want to eat shit!
"No, that's all for the owner."

There are seven people in the Yan family's main house, namely: Luo Si, Yan Yan, Tang Si, Yan Ce, Lin Meng'an, Yan Yan, and Yan Congrui.What we were assigned were two earthen huts.

This is not enough room to live in.

This is their long-term residence in the future, so how can they not argue with reason?
"There are seven of us, how can we live here? Can we at least give us two more rooms?"

"You can't stop!"

"How about giving me an extra head office?"

"You can't stop!"

The strong man felt that his patience was almost exhausted. These people had no choice but to live there, and no one was forcing them to live there.

There are a bunch of prisoners who can't tell who they are, and they are still negotiating terms.

And Tang Si was even more upset. How could she live in two rooms?And that old woman, who is following?
In the end, the negotiation was fruitless, and Tang Si and the others had no choice but to follow the strong man to see the land.

The land allocated to the Yan family's first room and the Yan family's second room were adjacent to each other, with only an aisle in between.

Based on three acres of land per person, the Yan family was allocated a total of 21 acres of land.

Their land looked slightly better than Su Mo's, but it was still very barren.

Tang Si cursed several times in his mind:
"Yan Ming's family was stabbed a thousand times, and the three of them went to lick Su Mo's shoes."

"You don't care about me, you are shameless. If you are missing three people, you are missing nine acres of land."

"And that bitch Yan Congxin also followed Su Mo and didn't have three acres of land."

"We have only been allocated 21 acres of land now. We were originally allocated 33 acres. These beasts are doing a lot of harm to people."

Cursing in her mind, she started to get angry at these things again.

"How do you farm this kind of land?"

“You can’t grow food just by looking at this kind of land.”

"Isn't this bullying? We want to change places."

"Why don't you just say we'll starve to death?"

Faced with numerous questions, the strong man only had one answer: "You don't have to plant seeds."

This made Tang Si very angry.

In the end, the strong man threw away his sleeves and left in anger.

……

Su Mo first looked at the three earthen houses.

It looks very shabby on the outside, but luckily it's still intact on the inside and there's no problem with people living there.

There are compartments inside each earth hut, dividing the earth hut into three.

It should be a storage room, a living room, and a room for cooking and eating.

"Sister-in-law, you and Xiao Ling'er should choose a room first."

Wang Anan chose the one on the far left: "Let's live in this one."

This room is the smallest of the three mud houses, but it is enough for her and Yan Conling to live together.

Wang Feng chose the one on the far right: "We live here."

This room only looks a little bigger than Wang An'an's, but overall it's still a little smaller.

Su Mo took Yan Yi, Zhang Guilan, and Yan Congxin to the middle room.

This room is the largest of the three.

After everything was unloaded from the bullock cart and placed properly, everyone started tidying up the house in full swing.

There is a lot of dust in the house, everywhere it touches is dirty, and there are many spiders that have built their webs here.

It was already dusk when we tidied up the house.

Su Mo found that there were no basic daily necessities such as pots and pans at home. Fortunately, he had used them all the way in exile, so there was no shortage of these, so he could make do with them for a while.

I was sweating all over and didn't know where to get water. It seemed that my bathing today was a waste.

Tomorrow morning, it seems I have to find someone to ask where to get water.

Moreover, when he arrived in a new place, Su Mo didn't know where the shops were, so he needed to walk around to get a good idea.

The weeds outside the house haven’t been pulled out yet, and we need to find time to pull them out. Looking at it this way, there’s still a lot of things that haven’t been done.
