Chapter 208 Building the courtyard wall
Although Lin Wan'er has a lot of power to speak at home, she generally respects the decisions of Wu Lang and Liu Lang. Therefore, after seeing them nodding, Lin Wan'er expressed the thoughts in her heart and planned to Ask for their opinions. If they all think it is feasible, then this plan can be passed unanimously.

"Big Brother, Second Brother, I want to spend some money to find a few masons in the village to build our courtyard walls a little higher, otherwise we won't be at ease every time we go out. At home, I am afraid that someone will climb over the wall and sneak in while we are not at home, and run into our house to cause harm."

"Even if no one is interested in our house, after all, the courtyard wall is old and it is piled up with loess. It has been exposed to wind, sun and rain for a long time. It is inevitable that the wall will not be strong, especially when it is blown. When there is a strong wind, the whole sky is gray outside, and people who are choking can’t open their eyes, and there is some dust in their noses.” When she first arrived, there was a strong wind, so that the yard was [-] meters away. The outside scenery was invisible, and the whole family was too scared to open the door, for fear that the dust outside would blow all over the house. Those gloomy days were nothing but a nightmare to her, and now thinking about it makes her back feel cold .

Goro and Liulang looked at each other after hearing Lin Wan'er's words, and felt that her method was feasible, but after considering the current financial situation of the family, Goro still bite the bullet and said: "Little sister, building a yard is a lot of money, masons, my little one." Labor, materials, these all have to be spent, plus a lunch every day, it will cost a lot of money, otherwise, let’s move the matter of building the yard later, until we have money It's never too late." Although he was a little moved by Lin Wan'er's decision, he was the eldest son of the family after all. After his parents were gone, he had the obligation to take good care of his younger brothers and sisters, so he had to be rational when thinking about problems. Because the building of the yard has hollowed out the bottom of the house, how will I live the rest of the day.

Lin Wan'er saw Wu Lang's concerns, knew that he had a calm temperament and generally followed the rules, and if he wanted to convince him, he had to analyze the matter thoroughly with him, so Lin Wan'er smiled and explained to him: "Brother, This is related to the health and safety of life and property, so we can't be careless, and the money that should be spent must be spent, after all, we will benefit in the long run after the courtyard wall is built."

"As for the wages and materials, don't worry too much, brother. If the family is tidying up now, there is still some money left. In a few days, sister-in-law Osmanthus and the others will come to our house. At that time, we will send the high-quality dried shiitake mushrooms we received Put it on, choose a sunny day to go to the town, and this will bring you a lot of money, are you afraid that you won’t be able to build the courtyard wall then?”

After saying this, Lin Wan'er ran back to her room again, took out a broken earthen jar from the groove in the corner, put it on the table, and put the money stored in it in front of Wulang Liulang. I took it out and counted it. There are more than seven taels and 600 coins in total. They are all broken silver and copper plates strung with red strings. If there are no other big expenses, there is no big problem in living.
