Chapter 111: Looking at the Foundation in Surprise
Later, when my aunt, uncle and cousin came out, everyone looked unhappy.
My grandparents also looked unhappy.
At this time, Song's mother stepped forward and pulled her mother's arm: "What's wrong, mother?"
My grandmother glanced at my aunt.
At this time, the eldest aunt said: "The He family is here to cancel the engagement."
Everyone in the yard was very surprised.
At this time, the third aunt didn't dare to say anything else. If the first wife didn't get married, the third wife would really have no chance of getting married.
If that doesn’t work, think of a solution yourself.
Can't waste time with them.
Zhao Lin is already fifteen years old. He has grown up in the blink of an eye.
Time flies.
My aunt didn't look very sad.
why?
Because I know the information Xia Xia revealed to me.
As long as the Zhao family has a bright future, there will be many girls who will come to propose marriage.
I originally wanted to talk about their marriage.
As a result, the other party came straight to the point and said that he came to cancel the engagement.
Just retreat!
Zhao Yuan is only seventeen years old now, so he can get married in two years.
The conditions are different, and the conditions for choosing a spouse will definitely be different.
But my uncle and Zhao Yuan felt very uncomfortable. They had known since childhood that He Yuer was their fiancée, so they had always treated her very well.
Until two years ago.
Then he noticed that she no longer called him Brother Yuan as often as she did when they were little.
At that time, I knew that the He family might have other intentions.
Otherwise, their marriage wouldn't have been delayed.
In the past two years, He Yuer's brother worked in the county, got to know people in the county, and married into a family in the county.
The He family might want He Yuer to marry into the county with the help of her brother's relationship.
In this era, let alone in the county, even if you work in a town, people will look up to you.
Therefore, if the other party wants to choose the better one due to the conditions, there is nothing wrong with it from their perspective.
Shen Xia asked: "Didn't my aunt tell them that conditions would get better in the future?"
The eldest aunt shook her head: "Before I even had the chance to speak, the He family talked about canceling the engagement."
The second aunt was originally sad because her eldest nephew was broken off from engagement.
Only after hearing what Xiao Xia said did he react.
I almost forgot, just refund it!
At this time, Zhao Xue comforted her eldest brother and said, "Brother, don't worry, my future sister-in-law will definitely not be the kind of person who despises the poor and loves the rich. Our family's future life will gradually get better."
"At that time, there must have been rows of beautiful girls waiting for my brother to choose." Zhao Xue joked.
Zhao Xue's comfort made Zhao Yuan feel better.
Looking at my sister's worried face, I said, "Okay, I'll borrow your good words."
No one knew why, but everyone tacitly agreed not to tell anyone what Shen Xia had said last night.
The two old people were originally very sad about this matter, but in the end both parties were fine.
I accepted it myself. In fact, the marriage had been delayed for two years, and everyone had some idea of the situation.
When going back.
Because they had things when they came, but when they left, there were six more people, plus the five people from the Song family, a total of eleven people.
Even though the ox cart is not small, it is still a bit crowded to sit in.
But riding a bullock cart is definitely better than walking.
The group said hello and left.
It was already afternoon when I got home, just before 3 p.m.
It's one o'clock in the afternoon.
Song Ming saw everyone coming back, including his eldest uncle, second uncle, two cousins, and two cousins.
so many people.
Song Jiang looked at Song Ming's surprised eyes and said, "My uncle and cousin are here to help repair the house, and my cousin is here to help Xia Xia with the work."
Song Ming nodded: "Oh, okay. It's a good time for us to eat together! The rice is ready in the pot."
Mother Song laughed and said, "How did you know we would come back at this time?"
Song Ming smiled and said, "It wasn't me who said that. It was my fourth brother who said that."
When Shen Xia heard this, she didn't expect that he could guess this.
Actually, I can't guess.
There were five of us going there, and we could only rest for one night at most, definitely not more than that.
The appetite for five people is quite a lot.
Song Ming continued, "It's just that I didn't make much, so I can only give one bowl to each person."
At this time, my uncle quickly said, "It's okay, we all ate buns on the way, the foundation is there, let's just work!"
My second uncle also agreed, "That's right."
The two cousins also nodded.
Song's mother smiled and said, "No, you still have to eat something, otherwise you won't be able to make it to the evening."
So in the end, everyone ate a small bowl at noon, but Song Ming cooked a lot of dishes, so although they didn't eat much, the amount was the same as at Heping's house.
After dinner, my uncle and his friends put down their bags and started thinking about working.
So he asked Song Jiang and Song Ming to take his uncle and cousin to the construction site.
And Shen Xia arranged how to sleep at night.
Fortunately, my eldest and second brothers built a rather large thatched hut at the construction site a few days ago.
At that time, if you didn't care about the bed, you could just find some wood, set it up, and then cover it with some grass and a piece of cloth.
So that’s the situation at the construction site. Luckily the big brother had paved the road wide a few days ago, so the six of them could squeeze in without any problem.
Then let’s make arrangements for the old house here.
Song Jin, Song Yun, Song Yu and Xiao Tian can only squeeze together for a while. However, Song Yun will go to school in half a month, so it’s okay for the three of them to sleep in one room.
Then the two cousins slept in Xiaowu's previous room.
As long as the main house is built, you can move in and live temporarily, as long as it can shelter you from the wind and rain.
Because it is the end of April now, and it will be May in a few days. With so many people here now, the main house should be completed in a month, and it will be June when it is finished.
There were many heavy rains in June, and my brother’s simple straw hut would definitely not have lasted.
There are often heavy rains.
Unlike now, there will only be an occasional rainstorm and it is not very heavy.
The two of them brought their uncle and cousin to the construction site and looked at the busy crowd.
Yes, it’s the crowd. There are too many people.
At this time, the foundations of all the courtyards, big and small, had been built.
It’s almost time to start building the brick wall of the main courtyard.
My uncle looked at the construction site and said, "Xiao Jiang, so many people in your village are building houses together? But aren't they too close together? You should leave a bigger yard around them so that it will be more convenient to raise animals in the future."
My uncle gave this advice based on his own experience.
The second uncle also said, "That's right. It will be convenient to plant something at the door later. You see the foundation in front is okay, but it's far away. You see the two on the right are a little better, but the six on the left are too close."
Zhao Yuan also spoke up: "That's right, there are so many of you, we can't stay at the door anymore."
Then the younger cousin Zhao Yun also spoke up: "By the way, cousin, you haven't told me which one yours is!"
Song Jiang and Song Ming looked at each other.
At this time, Song Ming looked at his two uncles and said, "Uncles, do you think it is possible that they are all from our family?"
When the four heard this, they were dumbfounded. What could this mean?
this----
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ninety foundations.
This is because they can't find anywhere to spend the money, so they have to repair so many things.
