With the wine that Wang Yongzhu bought back from the town, he sent two catties to the ground every day to warm up the men, and the mud bricks were increasing rapidly every day, and the rows of stacks were neatly placed, just waiting for the wind to dry, and then they could be used.

Shopkeeper Wu really didn't lie, this wine was better than the last time I bought, the men drank it and said that it was strong, and when they took a sip, a fire went down their throats, and their whole bodies were warm.

Everyone is full of energy.

After the foundation is laid, the walls are built.

The first batch of mud bricks had been dried and moved to the new house, and Master Chiang, with his group of brothers, began to build the walls.

After the exterior wall is built, a thick layer of mud wrapped in cattail grass is applied inside and out, so that the wall is not afraid of rain.

Once the walls were built, the house was one day at a time.

The necessary stones and timber were successively transported to the new house.

The tiles needed for the roof have also been half burned and shipped over.

The new house is busy every day, and the people are buzzing.

On the side of the Wang family's courtyard, under Wang Yongzhu's insistence, the level of food has been maintained.

Wang Yongzhu relayed the skills he learned from the chef of the restaurant to Jiang and other mothers-in-law who cooked.

The meal is also renovated every day, what pork stewed vermicelli cabbage, what meat stewed potatoes, cabbage stewed tofu, big herring stewed tofu with pot stickers......

More than ten days have passed, and it stands to reason that I will lose weight if I work hard every day.

Under such a rich meal of the Wang family, I was stunned that I didn't lose weight, and there were many people who did some light work, and their waists were rounded.

Not to mention the mothers-in-law who helped with the cooking, in the past 20 days, their faces have become round, their chins have doubled, and their complexions have improved.

When the people in the village saw it, who was not envious in their hearts.

The Wang family is so willing, and the people who help also know in their hearts, the house that was supposed to be completed in a month was completed in 20 days, and most of it was completed, and only the upper beams and the final cover tile were needed.

The upper beam is the most important step in building a house.

The auspicious day has already been chosen, and those who clash with each other on the auspicious day of Shangliang cannot go to the new house, so they must avoid it.

Before going up the beam, you have to sacrifice to the gods, burn incense and pray.

Then, select two Shangliang masters who belong to the dragon and the tiger, and wear strips of red cloth around their waists.

The most important middle beam is selected by the master of the upper beam, the middle beam must be a fir tree, to be straight to the sky, the kind with lush leaves, the more small cedar trees around, the better, symbolizing the descendants of the lush and endless.

You can't choose a single tree.

When felling, there is also a requirement that the small cedar trees around them should not be overwhelmed, and the direction of the fall must be towards the south.

Before making the middle beam, the master has to light incense and set off firecrackers before it can be made.

Both ends of the beam should be hung with a copper coin tied with red silk thread to take the meaning of peace and shun.

As soon as the auspicious time comes, the two Shangliang masters will carry the middle beam, while singing the Shangliang song, and the people below will shout Shangah, good luck! Lift it up and put it away steadily.

After the middle beam is stabilized, the master of the upper beam will also sprinkle all kinds of peanuts, dried fruits and other things prepared by the main family.

Watching the lively men, women and children can go to grab it, the more people grab it, the more lively it is, the better the omen.

This is called beam throwing.

After throwing the beam, everyone has to withdraw from the new house and let the sun bask in a beam, which is called drying the beam.

For this day, the Wang family has long prepared firecrackers, red paper, red cloth strips, and sacrifices to the sky

of incense, candles, and offerings.

I also bought a lot of dried peanuts and fruits, ready to throw the beams when the time comes.

Sure enough, as soon as the auspicious time came, Master Shangliang had a strip of red cloth wrapped around his waist, and he put the beam steadily.

There are a lot of people who come to see the excitement, one is that they all want to see the big courtyard of the Wang family, and the other is to publicize the people who came to help, who doesn't know that the Wang family is generous, and today the beam will definitely not be stingy.

Sure enough, the master of throwing Liang went up with a basket, a lot of peanuts, dried fruits, and occasionally a few copper coins were thrown down.

Not to mention children, adults can't help but grab it, and it's very lively for a while.

I only saw Wang Laozhu and Mrs. Zhang smiling.

The master of the beam throwing over there was still a word in his mouth: "Throw the beam to the east, and the sunrise in the east is full of red; Throwing the beam to the west, the unicorn sends the son to hang double happiness; Throw the beam to the south, and the children and grandchildren will be the champions from generation to generation; Throw the beam to the north, and hoard white rice at the end of the year. ”

Wait until everyone has finished grabbing these peanuts and dried fruits and dispersed.

Everyone quit the new house, let the sun shine for one day, and the next day they could go up to other beams, purlins, and so on.

At this point, the basic house is almost done, and only the final tiles need to be covered.

These are all in charge of the brothers brought by Master Jiang.

So after the beam, the Wang family will invite all the helpers to eat, which is called remuneration, and thank everyone for helping.

On this day, several mothers-in-law who came to help used their skills to cure five tables of banquets, and they couldn't sit in the courtyard, so they were directly placed outside the courtyard.

On each table, there is a large pot of braised pork and stewed potatoes, a fish, a pot of braised chicken stewed mushroom vermicelli, a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of pig's head meat, and three side dishes, which are better than some people's happy events.

The most pleasing thing is that there is also a jar of wine on each table, about two catties.

Zhuang Hu man, who doesn't like to drink a little wine, this is in the Wang family to help, can take two sips every day, as soon as you see the wine jar, the alcohol addiction will naturally come up.

Without the persuasion of the master's family, one by one they poured out the bowls and drank them.

It was so noisy that in the afternoon, they were full of wine and food, and they helped each other to go home with a drunken face.

When the banquet was over, the mothers-in-law who had been waiting for a long time neatly cleaned up the table, washed the pots and pans, swept the floor, settled the completion money, and went home happily.

The people of the Wang family can't rest yet, and they have to return other people's tables, dishes and chopsticks.

You can't empty your hands on the table, you have to put a few eggs, or a handful of peanuts or something.

The errand work was handed over to a few children.

Master Jiang and the others drank a little too much, and they all went back to the house to lie down and snored loudly after a while.

Several men from the Wang family were also a little tall, except for Song Chongjin, who was still awake, most of them were dizzy, and they also went back to the house to lie down.

Only Mrs. Zhang, Lin and Jiang were left, quietly discussing the arrangements for dinner and future cooking.

From today onwards, those helpers don't have to come again, and in the future, only Master Jiang and the others will have dinner at home, and the Jiang family and the Lin family will be able to support them.

Wang Yongzhu is calculating how much money he has spent so far.

In addition to Master Jiang's wages, the rest of the material money and helper's wages have been settled.

Over there, while picking vegetables, Lin said, "I always feel like something is missing today?" ”
