Landlord's hot day

Chapter 39 Move to a new house

As soon as Liu heard Yuer's words, he answered without thinking about it and said, "Although your mother usually bullies your father like a mother Yasha, if we are really twisted, your father is much more twisted than your mother!" With your father's bad temper, even if our whole family opposes it, he will not change his mind. After all, your father has always been looking forward to a good life of your uncle. Only when he has a good life and your father as a brother can be relieved..."

How did the fish not know that Yang Dazhu was a straightforward, kind-hearted but sometimes more stubborn than a cow?

That's why Yuer deliberately said the opposite and asked Liu to analyze Yang Dazhu's personality to her in turn. Liu's personality was thoroughly analyzed Yang Dazhu and soon sighed helplessly: "Oh, forget it, I'm not angry with your father. If he was not such an affectionate real person, I would not have married at that time. It's him."

Yuer was secretly relieved when she saw Liu's thought about it. She deliberately chose a good word and said, "Mom, don't be too unhappy. We agreed to lend this room to my uncle's family. When the brothers marry a daughter-in-law and have a baby, our family's house is not enough, and our uncle's family will naturally borrow it. The house is back."

"Oh, my mother is not a stingy person, but your aunt is an extremely difficult, selfish and insatiable person. My mother is afraid that she will stay in the few rooms we live in," Liu said for a pause, and then complained about Yang Dazhu, "Your father is really, and he doesn't discuss it with me. Just one word of the matter!"

Yuer also knows the worries in Liu's heart, but Yuer also knows Yang Dazhu's temperament very well, so she can only sigh helplessly: "That is, Dad discussed with us in advance, and in the end, he will insist on giving the house to his uncle's family. Who let Dad be a good brother who is affectionate and righteous?"

When Liu saw the fish, she also sighed and thought that she was as worried that Fang would not occupy the house in the future. She quickly whispered, "Sister, don't worry. If you divide your aunt in the future, she will still rely on her. I have my own way to deal with her!" Don't let her take advantage of us anymore! If she could use her greedy mind on the right path, she would not have lived in a big house earlier than our family!"

Yuer no longer asked when she saw Liu's vowed appearance. She thought that since Liu was sure that Fang would not stay at home in the future, she would not talk more about this matter, but changed the topic to make Liu happy. With the clever companionship of Yuer, Liu's slowly did not feel so angry with Yang Dazhu.

The next day, Yang Dazhu and Yang Erzhu made an exception and did not go fishing, and the family began to happily move the packed items under the boat. Of course, due to the tight time, Yuer, Liu Shi and Yang Qiniang were still busy packing and packing while moving, and in addition to a few children of the Yang family, Xiao Shuanzi and Li Erniu also came to help pull things to their new home with a trolley.

The big guy has been busy all day from morning to night before moving the things on the two ships to their new home. After moving, everyone was exhausted and had no strength to clean up the new home. After the family simply had dinner, they rushed to spread straw mats and bedding on the ground for a night, and ate it the next day. Start cleaning up the new house immediately after breakfast.

Most of the farmyards in this small village are square courtyards, and their new home is no exception. It is a large square courtyard with an overall shape of "back".

The yards in the countryside are not as exquisite as those in and out of the city. In short, houses have been built around and a square open space is left in the middle. This room is for people, and there are several large water tanks on the left side of the empty space in the middle, a row of pottery jars for pickling things on the right, and the rest is used to dry grain and other things on weekdays.

Yang Dazhu took his family to visit the big yard and divided the house to everyone. First of all, they walked into the spacious and bright hall in the bottom row of the word "back" and in the center. There was a picture of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea on the wall at the bottom of the room, drawing a long case with some valuable vases and utensils on it.

There is a black square table in front of the case, with a chair on each side of the square table, and a chair perpendicular to the left and right chairs. This decoration is much more exquisite than the hall in the ordinary farmyard. I think the owner of the Luo family should have had some identity, and this hall is the place where he received guests.

There is a spacious room on the left and right of the middle of the hall. The two rooms are divided into inside and outside. Look at the decoration and pattern of the room. There should be sleeping people here, and there are some valuable sundries piled up outside. Yang Dazhu and his wife lived in the left and right big rooms in the east. The Fang family in the west was very greedy, but Yang Dazhu was given to Mr. Yang.

With such an arrangement, the two large rooms under the word "back" were full, and then Yang Dazhu began to arrange the two rows of houses around the word "back".

There are six slightly smaller rooms on each side. Because Yang Dazhu and his wife live in a large room in the east, the fish brothers and sisters live in the row of rooms on the left in turn. Six people and one person per person is just right. The closest to Yang Dazhu and his wife's room is Yang Qiniang, and the next is the fish. Several children are also divided according to their generations. I lived in the rooms behind the fish.

The remaining six rooms on the right are slightly more spacious next to Mr. Yang's room. Yang Dazhu has let Yang Erzhu and his wife live in, while Yang Erlang and Yang Wulang live in the second and third rooms.

This person is full, but there are still three rooms left on the right, so one of them is used as a kitchen, one is used as a study for children to read and write, and the other one is used as a warehouse for food, farm tools, fishing gear and other sundries.

After this arrangement, there are only two rooms close to the left and right of the gate. Because these rooms are most close to the outside and close to the gate, the two rooms in the east were used to live for the long-term workers of the family, and the two rooms in the west were pigsty and toilets...

The Yang family has no money to raise pigs and hire long-term workers at present, so except for the toilet, the other three rooms can only be temporarily empty.

After the separate rooms, the big guys began to clean up their own rooms, put the things moved from the boat one by one, and then write down what was missing in their respective rooms one by one...

Although the Luo family left in a hurry and left the furniture and some worthless decorations of the Yang family, after the Yang family moved in, they still had to add some furniture and daily necessities. After all, in the past, their whole family lived on the boat, because the place was small and many things I didn't buy it. At present, the place is spacious and I have to buy it one by one.

After these scattered things were added and the whole family lived comfortably, Yang Dazhu sold his old boat, and then added some silver to buy a bigger new boat. Yang Dazhu also spent some money to repair the relatively new ship.

These scattered expenses also cost a lot of silver, so the silver of the previous pawn pearl finally left less than 300 taels of silver.

And the Yang family has just moved to a new home, and Yang Dalang, who took the imperial examination in Shangzhoufu, also entrusted people to bring good news, saying that he has successfully passed the state examination... This is a double happiness for the Yang family!

After learning the news, the Yuer family immediately burned incense to worship their ancestors and told the ancestors of the Yang family the good news. Liu's neighbors and villagers who walked through the streets announced the good news. Yang Dazhu specially went to the city to buy a long red firecracker and set off a lively firecracker outside the Yang family's new house to celebrate Yang Dalang's entrance examination!

However, although Yang Dalang was admitted to Juren, he could not immediately leave for his hometown to share his joy with his family. Instead, he wrote in the letter he brought back that he could not return to his hometown for the time being and wanted to stay in the state government to study hard with his classmates and friends, so as to save him the time to return home and prepare for the next provincial examination for more time.

After reading Yang Dalang's letter and listening to Yang Silang's explanation, Yuer knew that the candidates in the original state examination would concentrate on the Ministry of Ceremonies of Tokyo to participate in the provincial examination in winter. Yang Silang also said that these candidates are called "juren" or "gong sheng", so everyone will honor Yang Dalang as "Yang Juren" in the future.

And after participating in the autumn, it is about to enter winter, so Yang Dalang's remaining time is not very generous, so he proposed to stay in the state capital to study hard. When it was almost time, he went straight to Tokyo to take the provincial examination. Because Yang Dalang had to rush to Tokyo at the end of winter and take the provincial examination in early spring, Yang Dalang could not spend the Spring Festival at home.

Yang Dalang made the matter clearly and made decisions to go to high school in the future. Therefore, the Yang family understood him very much and agreed that he would not go home and stay in the state government to study hard during the Spring Festival.

However, Liu still felt distressed that Yang Dalang stayed alone in other places for the Spring Festival, so he took most of the remaining 300 taels of silver from the family and sent it to Yang Dalang together with the family letter.

These two hundred taels of silver are not only Yang Dalang's food expenses for the past few months, but also the travel expenses for him to move to Beijing. Liu was also worried that Yang Dalang would spend some money on something after arriving in Tokyo, so he took most of the money left in the family to Yang Dalang, leaving only a few pieces of money to deal with the coming year-end. Anyway, their family still spent the New Year when they had no money in previous years.
