Chapter 109: Stop Morally Kidnapping Me

Chuxue moved quickly. While her mom was cooking lunch, she ran to Uncle Liang's house at the east end of the village: "Auntie, are you busy?"

Uncle Liang's wife saw the person coming: "Girl Chuxue, why are you here?"

"Auntie, where's my uncle?"

"He's in the backyard organizing the vegetable plot. Are you looking for him for something?"

Chuxue nodded with a smile: "Yes. I got a homestead approved by the village and want to ask Uncle Liang to help me organize it."

A look of joy appeared on Uncle Liang's wife's face: "Is your family really going to build a new house?"

"The doctor said Dad needs to rest well. You know the situation in my family. If we keep living there, how can we have peace? Besides, if I don't spend the money I have, I'm afraid Grandma and Grandpa won't be able to settle down."

"That's true. Wait, I'll go call your uncle."

But before she could walk to the backyard, Uncle Liang walked back after hearing the commotion in the front yard: "Chuxue is here?"

"Uncle Liang, have you taken any jobs recently?"

Uncle Liang propped his hoe on the ground: "Shanglin Village came to find me a few days ago, but the date for building the house hasn't been set. What does your family want to do?"

Uncle Liang's wife snatched the words: "Chuxue's family got a new homestead approved and wants to build a new house."

This made Uncle Liang a bit surprised: "Isn't your house big enough to live in..."

Just as he said this, he thought of something: "Where did you choose the homestead?"

Chuxue smiled: "They said it's that piece on the dirt slope at the end of the village."

Uncle Liang also disapproved: "Chuxue, that place is good, but first, it's a bit remote, and second, if you want to live securely, you have to stabilize the slope in front. That's a not-so-small expense."

"Uncle Liang, that place is only fifty meters away from the houses in front. After the slope is stabilized, people will definitely choose to approve homesteads over there."

Seeing Chuxue had such strong opinions, Uncle Liang didn't want to persuade her anymore: "Fine, then are you prepared to build a mud-brick tile house or a brick tile house?"

Chuxue didn't hesitate: "A brick tile house. It's comfortable to live in, and there will be fewer troubles in the future."

She said this and took out the house structure diagram she had drawn: "Uncle, this is what I'm thinking. Build three large rooms for the main house, build two side rooms on each side, and arrange the kitchen and utility room to the south. This can be built a bit smaller."

Uncle Liang was also shocked by this big move: "Chuxue, this is a brick tile house. Building it like this will cost a lot of money. Three large main rooms, one room will cost sixty, and the side rooms are relatively smaller and lower, but it will cost at least fifty yuan. Plus the kitchen and utility room to the south, it will cost four hundred and fifty or sixty."

"Uncle Liang, you also know I got some rewards. It's better to turn it into a house as soon as possible than to keep it in my hands. And I want to build the house as soon as possible so Dad can rest quietly earlier. I have to trouble you to help organize this."

"As long as you've decided, I definitely have no problem here. I can pull together a construction team today."

"That's fine. The village cadres are going to measure the land in the afternoon. If you have time, help me go over and take a look."

"Fine, I'll go over in a bit."

She finished talking, refused Uncle Liang's wife's invitation to stay for a meal, and hurried home. Her mom's meal should be ready soon.

As she expected, she was still a distance from home when she saw Chunxiao coming to call her.

Chunxiao saw her and ran over: "Second Sister, Mom asked me to call you back for dinner."

"What did Mom cook?"

"Stir-fried spicy sauce and rolled out two-flour noodles."

"Second Sister, Mom said you're going to measure the homestead in the afternoon?"

"Hmm."

"That's really great. Finally, we don't have to look at their faces anymore."

Just as they arrived at the gate, they saw Liu Jianqiang standing at the main gate: "Chuxue, are you really going to be so ruthless?"

Chuxue wasn't afraid of him: "Weren't you the ones who were ruthless first? Stop morally kidnapping me here."

After saying this, she pulled Chunxiao into the main gate.
