Chapter 330: Building a New House

Qiaolian found the veterinarian Lao Xiong, discussed with him, and compared the treatment of colds, took the medicine and gave it to the horse.

Anyway, it's this time, a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, what if it's not a gangreus, it's really a cold?

Unexpectedly, after taking medicine for a few days, the horse really got better.

The yellow nose was gone, the breathing was not so short, the eyes were no longer red, and the grass began to eat vigorously, and the spirit recovered.

This can make Qiaojuan very happy, and everyone will say that his horse is not a nose.

Qiao Lian was also very happy to hear the news, she was glad that she insisted on stopping those people at that time, and did not really agree to kill the horse.

Otherwise, the Zhang family will have a lot of labor, so what will happen to work in the future?

The spring ploughing has all ended, and it has rained a few times in succession, and the land is moistened, and the seeds in the field have absorbed enough water and begun to germinate into the soil.

At this time, the big guys can also breathe a little bit of relief and rest, and everyone is working hard to farm in the spring of this year, and I really feel tired and panicked at this time.

Taking advantage of the fact that the crops have not yet emerged, Secretary Han gave the big guys a holiday, and the people who have been busy for a spring can finally relax a little at this time.

Other people's families can be idle, but the Qu family can't, because Qu Weiyang and Qiaolian discussed and decided to build five new houses behind their own house.

The children are getting older, and there will not be enough to live in the family in the future, so it is better to take advantage of this time to build a house quickly.

Besides, this woodcarved house is not very warm after all, and it has to be repaired, so it is better to build a better house.

After the big frame is up, Qu Weiyang takes the time to do it slowly, and he can always pack it up this summer and wait for the winter to move in.

Last year, the two of them were calculating this matter, and Qu Weiyang also prepared materials in advance.

Qu Weiyang burned the bricks once, thinking that this thing was much easier to use than adobe, so when he was idle, he would take off the blank with the mud, and if he had saved too much, he would put it in the clay kiln and burn it once.

This autumn and spring, a lot of bricks have been burned alone, and although there are still some missing to build a house, it is enough to buy some more from the system.

Qu Weiyang also put wood in the forest in winter, and when he had time, he went to the stone stone behind Shizuzi to beat stones, and the stones and wood he saved this winter were enough to build five houses.

Originally, Qiaolian thought that it would be okay to build it next year, but then she thought about it, she had to build it whenever she wanted, so it would be sooner rather than later.

Since Qu Weiyang has almost prepared the materials for building a house, why not build it earlier? Otherwise, so many materials are piled up there, and it is too eye-catching.

So Qiaolian found Secretary Han, went through the formalities from the township and approved a homestead, and chose a site to build a new house behind her house.

It happened that the spring farming was over, so Qiaolian found Zhang Wenguang's brothers, as well as several families on Shizuizi's side to help, and also found a carpenter to make doors, windows and beams.

On May 26, just ten meters behind the Qu family's current house, ground was broken and construction began.

This time to build a house, I basically adopted Qiao Lian's opinion and designed it according to the standards for building houses in later generations.

Therefore, the foundation must be dug deeper, and the province will be damaged by freezing in winter.

Their original house was that when winter came to the third or ninth day, the ground would bulge and be high, and sometimes the door could not be opened, so they had to use an axe to cut it.

When the spring thaws, the ground falls again, and the door becomes a pit, which has to be filled in again.

In order to prevent such a thing from happening, Qu Weiyang adopted Qiao Lian's advice and dug the foundation to a depth of one meter and eight meters.

Then lay stones in the foundation, and fill the joints with sand and cement, so that the foundation is relatively strong and not afraid of frost damage in winter.

In order to build a house this time, Qiao Lian deliberately exchanged a lot of cement white ash from the system, as for the sand, it is not worried, there are some by the river, it can be used by digging it out and sifting it, and there are two piles in the courtyard of the Qu family.

Cement has been there for years, and most people still call it cement, which is only available in big cities, and it can't be seen in Fusong.

Most of the houses are built in adobe houses, using yellow mud. So when I don't see something I don't know, the big guys are quite puzzled, and they don't know how to use this thing.

"This is cement, which is called cement on the outside, which is a good material for construction, and in order to build a house, Weiyang specially bought it from other places.

This thing is much stronger than the yellow mud we use, and it doesn't fall down, unlike our yellow mud house, which has to be re-plastered every few years. Qiao Lian explained to the big guy with a smile.

"Sand and cement are three to one, add water to reconcile, and then use it to build the foundation.

Wei Yang said, let's build the foundation all the way up, and use stones directly under the window sill, so that it is strong. ”

Qiao Lian was afraid that the big guy didn't know how to use cement, so she deliberately told it again, and asked Qu Weiyang to demonstrate it, and everyone saw the cement that came out, and then it suddenly turned out that it was also used as yellow mud.

Qu Weiyang is the director of the county supply and marketing cooperative, and now the supply and marketing cooperatives are cattle, everyone has to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy and sell things, and from this year, they have to ask for tickets to buy things.

I was not optimistic about Qu Weiyang's work before, but now I am also very hot, and I am trying my best to have a good relationship with the Qu family, just waiting for when there will be defective products in the supply and marketing cooperative, and let Qu Weiyang help them bring some back.

Qu Weiyang is now away from the barracks, and he is no longer as serious and difficult to get close to as before, he is much more easy-going than before, but he is quite willing to help, and he has a very good relationship with many people in Daying Township.

So this time the Qu family built a house, and there were really a lot of people who came to help.

There were enough people and materials, so some people and cement, some handed stones, and some people laid stones in the foundation.

The big guys worked together and did it very fast, and after a day's work, the foundation was laid to the ground level.

"Okay, let's stop and rest, let's do this today, and continue tomorrow.

The big guys are tired for a day, hurry, quickly wash your hands and wipe your face, come to the front room and sit down to drink saliva to cool off.

Dinner has been prepared, rhubarb rice, pork stewed vermicelli, enough to manage. When the time came, Qiao Lian hurriedly came over and beckoned the big guy to go to the front room for dinner.

In these years, you can't pay people to help, people are purely here to help.

Qiaolian also thought about it, she couldn't use people in vain, waiting for the house to be built, these helpers, she tried to send some cloth or daily necessities and the like, it was not good to owe too much favors.

Of course, when people come to help, the host must take care of the food.

For this, the Qu family deliberately killed a big fat pig, and in addition to selling it to the supply and marketing cooperative, they all kept the people who served the helpers.

The Qu family has a good life, they don't lack anything, and this meal is naturally very good.

This spring work is tiring, where is there any oil and water in the stomach of the big guy? Although the style of the Qu family's meals is small, they are full of each of them, and they are full to eat, so these helpers are extremely happy.

At noon, the big guy ate very well, and in the evening, Qiaolian added two more dishes, the rhubarb rice was fragrant, with oily dishes, and none of these people ate less.
