Reborn farming life

Chapter 99 New Neighbors

Soon a large plate of delicious sweet potato fries was fried, and Li Yu reheated some of the meals that he had cooked earlier and brought them into his room together. Cui Yuanyuan followed Li Yu closely, "Sister Yu, Liu Where are Nanny and Tuantuan? Why haven't I seen them?"

"Shh! Keep your voice down, grandma and Tuantuan are taking a nap at this time." Cui Yuanyuan stuck out her tongue after hearing this, and lowered her voice, "It's a lifetime of blessings for Nanny Liu to recognize you as a good granddaughter. It seems that the old ladies in those big mansions live a similar life."

"Hehe, what are you talking about? It's a blessing for me and Tuantuan to have grandma who loves me and Tuantuan! Besides, what have you seen in that house? Eat your sweet potato fries!" As Li Yu said, he stuffed a sweet potato fries into Cui Yuanyuan's mouth. Cui Yuanyuan opened her mouth and said inarticulately while chewing, "I haven't seen it, I haven't heard of it! I followed my mother last time." When I went to the town to sell eggs, I heard people say that the old lady in the house does nothing all day long, just teases her grandson at home, finds someone to talk to and so on."

Li Yuxin thought about the same thing. In this era, there are no entertainment activities. The only fun for the women in the house is probably to listen to operas, fight each other, and compare their wealth. "Yes, yes, what you said makes sense. Don't you also want to enter the house in the future? I don't think you are used to such a boring life, so ah! You should marry a farmer honestly and live a stable life for the rest of your life. !"

"Tch, I won't tell you anymore, and I'm thinking of abducting me again! You should expect me to marry a rich man so that I can help you in the future, right?"

"Come on, I don't need your help, I just hope you live a happy life!"

"Hey, that's right, you don't need my help at all, not to mention that you are smart, even Brother Che is capable, and when he gets fame in the future, you will be the lady of the official family!"

"Hehe, aren't you a friend of Miss Guan's family?"

"That's right! Why didn't I think of it! You said that if I married Brother Che, would my dream come true? But I think Brother Che doesn't like me anymore, hey! I'm just miserable Yeah!" Li Yu knew that Cui Yuanyuan was just joking with him, so he didn't care too much, and after the two talked for a while, Cui Yuanyuan went back, and she had to go to the fields to do farm work in the afternoon!

In the evening, after the family had dinner, Li Yu told Cui Yuanyuan about the need for someone to build a house nearby. Granny Liu thought about it and said, "Someone really wants to build a house? Why not?" Jian Lizheng came to our house to say something?" Li Yu was stunned for a moment before remembering that anyone who wants to build a house must have the neighbor's consent, and he was also puzzled, yes!It stands to reason that if someone builds a house next to his home, he should come to say hello.Now there is no news, does it mean that no one wants to move here?No matter what Li Yu thought, she would know what was going on the next day.

Early the next morning, Li Yu took her small wooden bucket to water and weed the fields. As soon as he walked out, he saw Uncle Liu walking towards his house.Li Yu took a few steps to greet him, "Morning, Second Uncle Liu! Where are you going so early?"

"Hehe, Sister Yu! Just in time, I'm going to your house to talk to you about something." Although Li Yu's mother-in-law Liu is the elder of Li Yu's family, she should go to her for anything, but everyone in the Liu family village knows Li's family affairs Li Yu He is the master of the house, so everyone likes to directly talk to Li Yu about anything.

"What's the matter with Second Uncle Liu? Why don't we talk at home?"

"No, there's nothing else. I just want to tell you that someone bought the land next to your house to build a house. There shouldn't be any problem!" Li Yu pondered in his heart after hearing this. What kind of family is it?Let Lizheng say it in person, most people come to the neighbor's house to say it, so it must be either rich or expensive!Li Yu didn't stop thinking about it, "Hehe, of course it's okay, but what kind of family is this? Uncle Liu said it himself."

"Hehe, I can only tell you that this is a big family, and I didn't expect that they would choose us to build a house. Well, I have something to do and leave first. You should go to work too. It looks like you have to go to the land. went?"

"Well, then Second Uncle Liu will go to work, I will also go to the field to have a look!"

Li Zheng nodded and walked towards the east of the village with his hands behind his back, Li Yu shrugged and went into the field.Li Yu now feels uncomfortable when he doesn't visit the fields every day. Watching the seedlings he planted grow up little by little is really a sense of accomplishment and joy.

In this way, Li Yu spent the whole morning in the field, and she didn't go back with her small wooden bucket until it was almost noon. Li Yu walked all the way from the edge of the field, and many people working in the field stood up and laughed. He said hello to her, and Li Yu would see these people every day when he came to the field, so everyone became familiar with them over time, and they often talked and chatted during the break.

When Li Yu arrived home, he found that many people had gathered around his house, most of them were holding tools and equipment. Li Yu thought that the house of his future new neighbor was about to start construction today.There are many people watching the fun, and they are still a little curious about their future new neighbor, Li Yu. As the saying goes, "A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor." It's very comfortable, so Li Yu also wanted to inquire about it.

But she was disappointed when Li Yu went to the onlookers to inquire. It seems that her new neighbor is really mysterious!No one knows what kind of family they are? !After watching around for a while, Li Yu went home. Anyway, he would see someone later, so Li Yu stopped asking desperately.

In the days that followed, Li Yu still insisted on working in the fields every day, and watched his neighbor's house being built little by little every day.In a blink of an eye, spring returns to the earth and everything recovers.The day in May is sunny and gentle, and the creek has also become fuller. The whole earth seems to have thrown off its burdens, shed its weight, and glowed with youthful vitality, which is flamboyant but colorful.

"Sister! Sister! Tuantuan wants to play in the fields with you!"

"Hehe, good! My sister took Tuantuan to play in the fields, shall we catch snails in the ditches?" It rained just yesterday, and the ditches were overflowing with water, and there were a lot of snails under the water.

"En, en, Tuantuan still wants to catch small fish!" Li Yu hugged Tuantuan on his chubby face. Tuantuan has grown a lot and gained weight in the past few months. After working in the field for more than two months, my body is much stronger than before, and I have no problem holding Tuantuan at all.

"You! Can't you rest at home? See Yuanyuan wishing to rest at home more, it's you, running around like a runaway horse!" Li Yu could only giggle at Granny Liu's evaluation, but in fact she herself I'm also very curious, I am obviously a very lazy person, but I don't know why I have been running into the fields every day for the past few months, and I don't feel bored at all.

"Grandma, you don't know, the field is really interesting!"

"To put it bluntly, grandma, I have been working in the fields for decades and I don't think it's interesting, but you think it's interesting. You're really a maid, and you're so busy!"

Li Yu stuck out his tongue and recognized Granny Liu's words, "Grandma, I took Tuan Tuan to the field, you should rest at home and don't work around, don't you feel tired all the time recently?"

"En, I got it! Be careful with Tuantuan, don't let him play in the water for too long!" Granny Liu kept telling Li Yu worriedly.

"Hey! Grandma, don't worry, I'm sensible. Tonight we'll eat pepper fried snails! Just wait for us to catch snails and come back!" Li Yu hugged Tuantuan after speaking, and asked Tuantuan to hold a small wooden bucket and sit down. Went to the fields.

When he walked to the newly built house, Li Yu couldn't help but stop and look at it. Every time he passed by the house that was seven or eight times the size of his own family, Li Yu couldn't help but stop and sigh, "This is really amazing. What a majestic house! The two stone lions at the entrance alone are powerful enough, I don’t know what kind of family built this 'mansion'!"

This house was officially completed three days ago. It can be seen how much labor was used to build such a large house in just two months. After the house was built, Li Yu used to grind the gatekeeper out of curiosity. The old man took himself in to have a look. It can be said that there are carved beams and painted buildings, which are too beautiful to behold. Each independent courtyard has its own characteristics, and none of them is the same. Li Yu especially likes one of the courtyards. The two houses in that courtyard are The two-story house has a large lotus pond in front of the house, and a small pavilion is built in the middle of the pond.

The stairs of this two-story house are set in the east room, and you can go up to the second floor by following the stairs. There is a window, and there is a door on the northwest side. After opening the door, there are steps extending down to the backyard.There is a large bamboo forest in the backyard. In the middle of the bamboo forest is a small bamboo house, which is very fresh and elegant.

After Li Yu saw such a design, he really sighed. He had never seen such a novel building before. Li Yu was a little envious, but thinking about his own red plum grove, it was still very good.

At this moment, Li Yu hugged Tuantuan and looked at it for a while. Just as he was about to continue walking into the field, he heard the sound of wheels behind him. Hearing this movement, there should be many carriages coming this way. Li Yu turned his head curiously. Seeing more than a dozen carriages pulling a large pile of furniture and chests running towards him, Li Yu knew at the first thought that this might be his new neighbor moving here.Out of curiosity, Li Yu didn't leave in a hurry, but stood to the side with his arms around him, wanting to see if he could see what the owner of the house was like.

Li Yugang stood aside, and the fully loaded carriages stopped at the gate of the house one after another. A middle-aged man in a gray robe jumped off the first carriage and began to direct a group of servants to move things.Li Yu looked at the middle-aged man and always felt a little familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen him.Just when Li Yu was confused, a voice made Li Yu completely understand.
