Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 211

"It stands to reason that you don't have many family members. Even if you include your grandfather's family, the foundation should be a three-entry courtyard. With such a house size, even the rich and nobles in Fucheng live in three-entry courtyards!"

"I've calculated that the 1000 taels I borrowed from you won't be enough after the house is built, and we've already made a bet that as long as I win you, I don't have to pay you back the 1000 taels of silver!"

"Then just pray that you can beat me!"

"Okay, now you have read what you should see and said what you should say. It's getting late and I'm going back to help Granny Hua prepare dinner!"

"Go back by yourself, I'll hang around here!"

Three months, three months later is the autumn harvest time, and I only have three months to get along well with Meng Yuan!

"Second Young Master, why are you here?"

Seeing that Mengyuan was not by Ling Xiaoyu's side, Lin Tian hurried forward to say hello!To put it bluntly, this construction team is still under the name of Ling Xiaoyu. If Ling Xiaoyu hadn't taken a fancy to his craftsmanship, he would not have such a large construction team!

"Old man Lin, you did a good job just now, but during the time I'm here, you can play well so you won't be exposed!"

"Don't worry, it's rare for a girl to be bothered by the second son. Even if I risk my old bones, I still have to cooperate with you, sir?"

"Old man Lin, does the construction period here have to be completed in three months?"

"The span is too large, and some places are cumbersome. This is the sketch that Miss Meng gave me, and asked me to build it according to this sketch!"

Ling Xiaoyu took the sketch, and besides the lines drawn on it, some special ones were also marked on it!
"Old man Lin, are you sure these are drawn by Miss Meng and handed over to you? What do the marks on them mean?"

"Back to the second son, old man, I asked Miss Meng, and she said that the marked place is the toilet and bathroom!"

"Toilet, bathroom? What the hell is that?"

"I heard from Miss Meng that this seems to be a toilet and a bathing place!"

"The latrine and the shower are put together. If someone wants to go to the latrine and someone takes a bath in it, wouldn't it collide? What kind of design is this? You really are, you said you are an old foreman, look at these sketches Why didn't you think of reminding her? She is young and ignorant, so you don't understand at your age, do you?!"

"Second son, Miss Meng said that this is a house she specially designed for herself and her family. I mentioned it to the old man, but Miss Meng said that she can only do it according to the sketch, and if it needs to be changed, she has to go through it. agreed!"

"Since this is the case, then you should do as she said! If possible, shorten the construction period as much as possible while ensuring the quality of the project. There are still many things on my side that need to be done by Meng girl! In addition, wait for Mengjia Ling Tian will tell you where the next construction site is after the project is over!"

Since she wanted to make noise in the fishing village, the buildings in the fishing village had to be rebuilt, so old man Lin's construction team was the No. 1 choice!
"It's all up to the young master's orders. It's nothing. Second young master, I'll go there first! This is the first day of work, and there are still many things to supervise. After the foundation is dug, we will start building walls and so on! These technical tasks , it’s all extremely delicate work, you can’t be sloppy at all!”

"Well, it's okay, you can go to your work! I'll go around again!"

He has already told the emperor's brother-in-law about the fishing village, but the condition is that he will go to Daewoo Kingdom after three months and wait for the final results of Mengjia's rice field and fish farming. What to do... Apart from doing business, there is nothing to do that's it!
Dreamer...
"Girl, you see that these dishes are already ready, and the dishes from Yue Fu Lou are on their way. The sun is also going down. Are you going to call the workers and ask the villagers to attend?"

Mengyuan looked around at the villagers outside, even if she didn't bark, it seemed like she couldn't stop the hungry wolf-like eyes of these people, right?Didn't you see that their eyes were all on the dishes on the table?
"Grandma Hua, tell Uncle Cheng to go to the construction site and invite the workers over. As for the villagers, they will naturally know what to do when the workers arrive! And oh, thirty tables, every There is a piece of sweet and sour fish on the table. If you want to eat rice noodles and steamed buns as a staple food, you can look at them, but be careful not to let people carry them in their pockets and eat them and pack them! We have a lot of food today, but I'm not rich and powerful, and if they eat it, I have to take it back for them!"

"Girl, don't worry, even if you don't tell me, you haven't seen the two uncles and wives, it's already counted according to the head? A table of ten people, adults sit at a table, children make a table, and the staple food of each table is based on individual circumstances. Got it! Guaranteed not to let some people who are greedy for cheap get away with it!"

"I did this to save money. We have already prepared enough dishes. Even if we don't eat the staple food, we won't be hungry. If it wasn't for the fear of being gossiped by the villagers, I would like to cut half of the staple food!"

"Everyone knows that you are kind-hearted, girl, but those who have suffered thousands of dollars may not think so! Well, girl, this matter is already prepared, and we are waiting for the guests to serve. You have been busy all afternoon, so go to Madam Let's have something to eat with Madam over there!"

"Okay, then you need to worry more about Granny Hua here!"

Thirty tables and thirty fish were all handled by her alone. In that low kitchen, she was in a good mood!From the moment I entered, my clothes hadn't been dried. When I came out, my whole body shivered when the evening wind blew!
Mengyuan wanted to find Ling Xiaoyu after finishing her work, but she couldn't find her after wandering around for a long time. She wanted to ask her father, her mother said that her father had gone to deliver food to the old house!The old man Meng came here in the morning because of his grandfather, and then he was angry and left at noon. Dad went over and talked nicely for a long time. I heard that her second uncle also persuaded him for a long time, but the old man just didn't want to come to the table.

Helpless, Mengxiong, who has always been respectful of filial piety, had no choice but to go to the old house with a basket filled with every dish!
When Mengxiong came to the old house, he saw the old man sitting on the stone pier and smoking a big cigarette. As soon as he saw him, he got up and went back!Just when Mengqing came out, he handed the vegetable basket to Mengqing, and told her to watch the old man eat it!
"Uncle, don't worry, grandpa said just now, whether you want to go there or not, it's not that he can't embarrass himself, don't worry, I will ask my father to persuade grandpa after my father comes back! Uncle, it's okay If you don't, I'll cook first!"

"Hey, go, look at your grandfather, and go to uncle's house if you have something to say!"

"understood!"

"Uncle Meng, is your father... unwilling to go there?"

"Ouch, Da Bo, your silence scares me!"

Ling Xiaoyu followed Mengxiong when he went out with the basket, but he walked lightly, and Mengxiong was so focused on delivering the food to the old house that he didn't notice behind him.

"Uncle Meng, I've been following you, you just didn't notice!"

"Really? Sigh~~ I was busy today, I just didn't pay attention for a while, let's go, let's go back too, it's time to sit at the table, if Mengya can't find this meal, she won't serve it!"

I have to say, knowing a daughter is like a father!Mengyuan searched all over, but she couldn't find Ling Xiaoyu, even Ling Tian Lingyun who came back from the town didn't know where her master had gone!
"I'm back, I'm back, girl, the master and the second son are back, and they are heading this way!"

Hearing Cheng Bo's words, Mengyuan pushed aside the crowd.Well, these two people are walking back talking and laughing!
"I said, what's the matter with you two? Let so many people wait for you two?"

"Uncle Meng, you are right, you really understand your daughter's temper clearly! It's time to sit down, but these villagers are still standing, which means that your daughter really can't find us. Announce the opening!"

"That is, I am her father!"

"Oh, I'm really sorry. I went out just now. I'm really glad that everyone can join us tonight. I don't have much to say. Now that everyone is here, let's start the table! Everyone take a seat Come on, open your stomach and eat."

"Okay, hurry up, let's sit here! Look at that dish, the bursts of aroma make my stomach sour!"

"What are you, I can eat more for this meal, but I haven't eaten anything except drinking water since I woke up in the morning. Just by smelling the aroma of the vegetables, I feel that I can eat the whole table. Eat all the dishes!"

While the villagers were pulling the children to sit, Cheng Bo coughed loudly twice and successfully attracted the attention of the guests. "Fellow folks, today is my lord's big day, the first day of construction of a new house, so in order to earn some popularity for the new house, I invite the folks to have a banquet. Now, besides hugging In addition to the children, the adults sit at the same table, and the children sit at the same table. In this way, the children will not interfere with the adults drinking and eating!"

"Hey, it's the first time I've heard that children and adults sit separately at this banquet! Now that they're separated, doesn't it mean that if the table can't accommodate the whole family, they have to separate?"

"That's right, I'm still thinking about getting the kids to bring more food later, we can't eat that much tonight, so we can have a toothpaste tomorrow if we take it back!"

"That's right, why did they separate?"

The villagers' comments were undisguised, even Meng Yuan, who had never learned martial arts and had no internal strength, could hear them clearly!

We all know that most of the people who entertain people in rural areas will follow the ceremony when drinking wedding wine or building a new house.But now, the workers are invited to provide Chinese food and dinner. It’s okay to be rude, but the villagers are just like the workers. Except for a mouth and a stomach, let alone one or two eggs, it’s just one egg. There are no leaves of green vegetables!

Forget it, but he still said so loudly that he wanted to pack it back!Did you make a mistake?
"Ahem~~ If you are dissatisfied with this arrangement, you don't have to eat it! Anyway, you don't come with the gift or anything. If you eat it, it's free. If you don't eat it, I can give the rest to the workers tomorrow. There are so many meat dishes, I believe the workers will not mind eating leftovers!"
