Zhang Caixuan didn't know if it would be useful to invite the Taoist chief, but people at the moment thought it was auspicious, so she wouldn't be bothered, she asked the village chief and Zhang Gucheng carefully, and she probably knew what was going on.

"How many rooms do you plan to build?" Zhang Gucheng asked again.

Zhang Caixuan thought for a while, "Five rooms."

In fact, she wanted to make as many as possible, but she didn't want to make too much publicity.You know, there are so many people in the Zhang family living in six main rooms.

Zhang Gucheng pondered, and said for a while: "It's a bit big, what kind of bricks should I use? Do you want the courtyard wall, and how high should it be? You have to think about it."

Zhang Caixuan didn't know this at all, and neither did the original owner's memory, so she asked honestly, "Fifth Grandfather, if you want to be warm in winter and cool in summer, which brick is the best?"

Zhang Gucheng couldn't help smiling, "Many people now use green bricks, but in fact they are not. If you really want to be warm in winter and cool in summer, you still need the adobe bricks used in our village. As long as you are willing to spend your time and money, the house is better than the green bricks." , use it for decades.”

Zhang Caixuan frowned, "But I won't."

She really wants a house that is warm in winter and cool in summer. If it is simple, she can buy blue bricks, and she will get it quickly after spending money, but she doesn't just need to have a house, at least she has to keep it warm.

The village chief smiled, "What's the matter, your fifth grandfather will know, now is the slack season, find more people, and the weather is good, I really need to do it, soon."

It was indeed very fast. Zhang Caixuan bought two acres of wasteland, which looked like a large area, but in just four or five days, all the weeds were cut down, and in some places even the stones were almost cleared away.

Zhang Caixuan also simply said, "Please trouble Grandpa Fifth."

Zhang Gucheng was very happy, he hadn't built a serious house for a long time, he usually built one or two rooms for urgent use for others.

"It's just... Girl Caixuan, do you have enough money?" The village chief asked solemnly, remembering something.

Zhang Gucheng also answered, "If you use earthen bricks, the labor cost is high. After five rooms are built, at least a few taels of silver will be required."

Hearing this, Zhang Caixuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although she didn't have much money, she didn't spend it recklessly.The Liao family gave ten taels, Qin Shuxian gave twenty taels, and more than four taels were saved.It took more than one tael to get out of the Zhou Mansion that day, and then I gave some to the village chief, and then there was money to buy the land, and now there are more than 20 taels.

After paying the wages of these people for a few days, it is more than enough to build a house.

But she is not that stupid, and the money is not leaked, even if the village head is a good person, she will not tell it frankly, so, uncertain: "Should it be enough?"

The village chief also breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good. If you really think about it, you should start construction as soon as the weather is good, but..."

He looked at Zhang Caixuan seriously, "After all, you are a girl's family, and you will marry someone in the future. Have you thought about building a house?"

"I've thought about it." Zhang Caixuan said seriously.

This place is desolate, and Qin Sulin may be the only neighbor of Zhang Caixuan in the future.But even if there were no neighbors, she was determined to live here.In the future, the house and the land cannot be too far apart.As for getting married, it should be a long time later.

Zhang Caixuan went to his house with the village head, and settled the wages for the past few days. Twenty people worked for less than four days, and it was [-] cash. She insisted on giving the village chief [-] cash, and the rest The next thing is to give him wages.

The village chief wanted to refuse, but Zhang Caixuan hurriedly stopped his refusal and said, "Uncle, I will ask you for help in the future. If you don't accept it, I won't dare to bother you."

After finally accepting the money, the village head became more and more satisfied with Zhang Caixuan, and said: "Then, starting tomorrow, I will find someone to make bricks."

Of course Zhang Caixuan wanted the sooner the better, said: "The wages are still ten cents a day, the same regardless of food, let everyone take care of it, I really can't help it."

The village chief nodded with a smile. In fact, no matter how much the rice was paid for, everyone was satisfied, and most people were willing to deliver the food themselves.

Sure enough, Zhang Caixuan finished cutting down Zhang Caixuan's wasteland that day, and the village head paid his wages neatly. Everyone was very happy.It is not that no one has hired people in the village to work before, but the wages are not so fast, and some people even have arrears for several years.

When Zhang Caixuan came home, everyone in the yard was very excited. This time, there were six people from the Zhang family, and there were more than 200 people in four days. It could be seen that Mrs. Li and the others were very excited, but when she saw her enter the door, Mrs. He smiled. He smiled and said: "Bao'er, you said you have that money, so why invite outsiders? There are only so many people in our own family, and it won't take long for you to clean it up."

As soon as the words came out, everyone in the yard thought of this, it was worth hundreds of pennies.

After Zhang Caixuan heard this, she didn't take it seriously. Anyway, she paid money, and Mrs. He even said the word "help".She would rather figure it out more clearly, and don't want to be confused.It's okay if she really wants to take advantage of it, but she paid money for nothing and said she would help. I don't know how much she thought she had benefited from the Zhang family.

She smiled slightly, "If only my uncle and a few older brothers are allowed to clean up, I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed to collect the money. Besides, I'm busy cleaning up and building a house."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Li said, "Bao'er, we didn't urge you to move out, so why are you in such a hurry?"

Zhang Caixuan smiled and didn't answer.

There are so many people in the Zhang family, and there are many things going on every day. On the surface, they are friendly, but secretly they don't show signs of each other.

If you want Zhang Caixuan to tell you, it is best to separate the family when you get married. Although such a family lives together, although saving money is fast, but after a long time, the brotherhood will be gone.

I don't know what they talked about last night, anyway, their family treated Zhang Caixuan the same as before, even He's joked as if what happened yesterday didn't happen.Of course Zhang Caixuan hoped that their family would be more friendly when she lived here, and she would feel uncomfortable living here if there was a real quarrel.

Half of the people went to help Qin Sulin clean up the wasteland, and the rest started to make earthen bricks at Zhang Caixuan's side, digging a big pit, mixing water, several kinds of soil dug from the mountain and green silk grass in it, and kneading constantly Step on it until it is sticky, and finally put it in a wooden mold, hammer it firmly with a wooden hammer, and then dry it.

Zhang Caixuan has never seen this before, but most of the houses in the village are built like this, so it is no problem to live there for decades.She researched it, and it may be that the various kinds of soil are so sticky, and the green silk grass is also very resilient.She doesn't have to use blue bricks, if others can live in earth bricks, so can she.

Qin Surin would come over occasionally to have a look, and even asked Zhang Gucheng, it seemed that he also planned to use earthen bricks.

The formerly desolate place has now become the busiest place in Qingshan Village, not only dozens of people working, but also children from various families will come here to play.

Ever since she left the Zhou Mansion, she seldom thought of the old days, she fell asleep when she was so tired all day long, she didn't have time to think about that much at all.

Until seeing a carriage coming straight to the wasteland from a distance, and seeing the familiar green shed carriage, Zhang Caixuan's heart tightened suddenly, someone from the Zhou residence came.Remembering that Zhou Mansion had nothing to do with her now, she relaxed a little.

The carriage stopped at the edge of Zhang Caixuan's field, and those people seemed to be looking for Qin Sulin, and they had to cross Zhang Caixuan's field to get there.

The person who came down was a young maid, dressed in the pink clothes of the second-class maids in the inner courtyard of the Zhou Mansion, and accompanied by two rough envoys. She frowned when passing by Zhang Caixuan's pit, ignoring the curious eyes of everyone around, and went directly to On Qin Surin's side.

Zhang Caixuan just came to look at the big pit, to study the principle.Hu Niuniang came to deliver the meal, approached her and whispered: "Caixuan, you were like this back then, why did you come back and suffer all this?"

After speaking, he shook his head.

Zhang Caixuan was silent, and lowered her head to glance at herself. She was dressed in blue muslin, with a piece of cloth wrapped around her hair, and there was mud on her body. She really looked like a village girl.Not to mention that her hand, which was just a thin callus before, is now scarred and full of blood blisters, just like the maidservants of the Zhou Mansion.

But when she thought about the people and things in the Zhou Mansion, she didn't regret it.She wants the freedom now more than Zhou Mansion's comfortable food and clothing.

The woman brought by the maid also brought two trays covered with cloth, but she couldn't see what it was, so she came back soon and got into the carriage and left.

After the carriage left, all the people murmured in low voices, "So the Zhou Mansion is here again?"

"Although he comes here often, Mr. Qin doesn't look like he's rich..."

"...I'm afraid I didn't give you money!"

"...Maybe it's a snack or something like that, it's not useful."

Everyone speculated, Zhang Caixuan turned and left after hearing a few words casually.She is a girl herself, and it is inappropriate to spend time with these people. She planned to come over and study the earthen bricks, and then go to the place where the water is leaking to dig a hole to store water.

She planned to build a house over there, but the side of the big pit was closer to the river, and a little farther away from the foundation. She was digging the pit with a hoe and was digging seriously, casting a shadow in front of her.Looking up, Qin Sulin stood in front of her with a complex expression.

Zhang Caixuan straightened up and took a breath, "Young Master Qin, you are so close, aren't you afraid that I will dig you?"

Qin Surin was silent, and said after a while: "The Zhou mansion just came."

Zhang Caixuan continued to work, nodded and said, "I saw it."

Qin Sulin's tone was serious, "He's here to urge me to hire you."

Zhang Caixuan's hoe suddenly tilted, and it dug into the stone, splashing a little spark, but she didn't care about it, and asked quickly, "What did you say?"

In fact, she had already heard it clearly, but she was just curious for no reason. How could Qin Shuxian think of marriage again?

She left the Zhou mansion largely because of Qin Shuxian's love for Zhou Bingyan. She didn't want a woman to get too close to him, and she was also a maid whom Zhou Bingyan cared about.It stands to reason that Zhang Caixuan has already left the Zhou Mansion, and has nothing to do with Zhou Bingyan anyway, so Qin Shuxian should not care about her that much.

Don't talk about the relationship between brother and sister, anyway, Zhang Caixuan can't see that she has any affection for Qin Sulin, but only sees her dislike and disgust for Qin Sulin, so naturally she won't worry about Qin Sulin's brother's marriage.

Zhang Caixuan frowned and pondered for a while, but still didn't understand why these nobles thought of her again.
