Chapter 159 Moving to the Front Yard
Shen Xia was shocked. What happened to this third brother?
Shen Xia looked at the third brother like a frightened rabbit, and kissed his back gently: "Third brother, what's wrong with you?"
After a long time, I heard the voice of the third brother: "I had a dream last night that you were leaving the Song family, but you didn't come back for a long time today. I thought you really weren't coming back."
Shen Xia raised the corner of her mouth: "Why don't you come back? No matter what I become in the future, I will be a part of this family and will treat my brothers as my own brothers."
Song Jin paused. Is that what you mean?
Xia Xia has someone she likes?
"Xia Xia, is it because Third Brother is not a good person that you don't like him? I know that I am a loser." Song Jin said in a pitiful tone.
The corner of Shen Xia's mouth twitched. What kind of words are these?
"No! Third brother is very good!"
"Really?" Song Jin let go of Shen Xia and looked at Shen Xia's face in confusion.
Shen Xia nodded vigorously: "Really? With Third Brother's looks, the girls who like him will definitely line up from the doorstep to the county."
"Does Xia Xia like it?"
Shen Xia nodded without even thinking: "I like it!"
"Okay, Xia Xia, wait a moment. I'll get some water for you. You must be tired from the journey." Song Jin let go of Shen Xia and began to get water for her.
Shen Xia was completely confused.
What is going on .
His sadness was like the wind, coming quickly and going away quickly.
The next day I woke up.
Everyone is still doing their work as usual.
Whenever my uncle, who raises silkworms, has questions, he comes to ask after work in the afternoon.
Because Shen Xia is usually not up yet when going to work in the morning.
It seems that the workers there are very happy while working.
Maybe it’s because there is a business of raising silkworms!
Today is the day when my uncle pays everyone their first wages.
Then my uncle came to me and said, "Xiao Xia! I'm going to pay everyone today, but no one wants to take it."
Shen Xia frowned: "How can this be possible?"
After saying that, he followed his uncle to the construction site.
I saw the two uncles from the Qian family registering there, but no one went to claim it.
All are working.
Shen Xia clapped his hands: "Everyone stop what you are doing and come here."
Because everyone has been with Shen Xia for more than a month, they still respect Shen Xia.
So when they heard the sound, everyone gathered around.
Seeing everyone sweating profusely, he said, "I heard Uncle Qian say that since I am leading everyone in raising silkworms, I won't charge you for your labor. This is not allowed. If you work hard, you must get something in return."
"I don't care about personal relationships here. I only care about efficiency and ability. Even the villagers working in my village will get equal pay for equal work."
"Boss, you help us make money and we do some work for you, so how can we charge you for it?" said a simple man.
Shen Xia looked at him and said, "You did the work but got no money in the end. Do you think it's good for our family's reputation?"
"We did it on our own initiative." said one person.
"Yes."
Shen Xia looked at everyone and said, "First of all, I am very grateful for your enthusiasm. I appreciate it, but I have to accept your wages. If you want to repay me, doing a good job is the best reward."
Finally, Shen Xia added: "If anyone doesn't accept it, don't come tomorrow."
Everyone can see that Shen Xia is not joking.
So they lined up one by one to receive the money.
Looking at the money I received, it was a little higher than other families.
I thought that if I could follow my employer for a long time, I would have hope for the future.
Shen Xia thought that the weather was getting hotter, so he gave an extra two cents a day in allowance.
But people in this village have always thought that there is no salary.
So I was quite surprised.
No one thought about getting paid at all, because everyone was supposed to help with repairing houses in the village.
Others came to help in the beginning because they wanted the Song family to repair the house as soon as possible so that they could lead everyone in raising silkworms.
At this moment, looking at the money in my hand, I was very happy.
Wait until everyone has received most of their gifts.
Shen Xia went to the front yard for a walk.
It looks like the front yard is almost finished.
The eldest and second brothers were responsible for buying some small things for the new house.
Because the front yard was repaired.
There were many rooms, and the carpenters rushed to build a few beds.
So my eldest brother, second brother, and uncle all moved into the front yard.
My uncle was reluctant at first, as someone had already moved in before he had even moved anywhere.
Shen Xia comforted her and said it was okay.
Because I have to raise two silkworms and also grow malt.
Tianxinzhai needs goods again.
Make the maltose that was made earlier and send it over first.
Then you have to malt the barley again.
Tianxinzhai has increased the quantity, so more malt will be produced in the future.
So there is no room for anyone to live in the old house anymore.
But it certainly won’t work if there are no people living there.
So Shen Xia and Song's mother also moved to the front yard.
Zhao Xue and Zhao Xin also moved here.
My brother stays here at night, so we have to keep someone here at night.
The beds here are old, so no one has moved them there.
The old house is now used for malting and silkworm breeding.
The stove in the front yard had already been lit.
So you can cook normally.
Shen Xia never liked living on the first floor. Although the second floor was a little hotter, fortunately the floor was high enough and Shen Xia had a suspended ceiling in the middle, so the temperature was still acceptable.
Then there is my mother, who lives on the first floor, and my two uncles, cousins, who also live on the first floor, two to a room.
Song Ming lived on the second floor, along with Song Jin and Xiao Wu.
that's it,
On the sixth day of June,
Everyone moved into the front yard.
Because it is a closed courtyard, no one can come in without permission.
The big wall hadn't been built yet, so everyone was walking back and forth in the open space outside.
There is a yard at the back with the roof repaired, and the carpenter moved his work point to the back.
The front yard was completely cleaned.
Because it is a two-entry courtyard.
The only thing missing is the rockery and flowing water, which I have to design myself.
When it was being built, I asked my uncle to reserve a spot for me.
Shen Xia looked at the front yard and felt a sense of accomplishment.
Today is the day we all move into our new home, so we definitely have to get together.
Because our house is more spacious now, we can also entertain guests.
In the evening, I invited my third uncle and third grandmother, as well as Uncle Qian and Uncle Qian's family, to stay for dinner.
Divided into two tables.
At dinner time,
Thinking that Aunt Liu next door's sorghum was almost ready to be harvested, he told his uncle that the big wall could be built and the foundation could be dug.
Then the brick work in the small yard at the back has taken too long, so we can arrange people to repair the wall.
My uncle also agreed.
Watching Shen Xia arrange these things very clearly.
The Song family's future wealth is simply unimaginable!
June 13th
On the way to Wuyang County.
A luxurious carriage.
There were dozens of guards with swords on both sides.
One can tell from his aura that he is of high status.
"Princess, it would be a bad idea for us to come to Wuyang County just because of the young master's childish words!" said a nanny.
"What's wrong with that? When we arrive in Wuyang County, this princess can arrange for someone to investigate first. I've also thought it through. It's just that Zhan'er likes it, so I don't object. After all, our relationship has been getting worse and worse over the years." After she finished speaking, sadness flashed in her eyes.
"Should we say hello to the young master first?" the nanny reminded.
"What can I get from him if I greet him? And if I ask him, will he tell me?"
Seeing that her princess knew what was going on, the nanny didn't say anything more.
But don't cause any more trouble.
The princess looked at her personal nanny with a worried look on her face and said, "Don't worry! As long as she is a good girl and Zhan'er is willing to come back to Beijing with me, I will agree to their marriage. I can't waste his energy over the years."
