Chapter 852: The House is Built

Professor Song was originally scheduled to return in mid-November, but before he could return with his students and family, the time had already reached December.

The temperature this winter was really cold, and every cooling came unexpectedly, turning sharply downward.

In December, in this warm winter that is becoming more and more common, in previous years, the first snow might not have fallen yet, but in Yunqiao Village, the scolding sounds of Dabai and Goose Sister early in the morning could even be heard through several mountains.

Nothing else, the pond was frozen.

The ducks went to the pond in groups as usual. The withered yellow grass leaves had the cold and crisp feeling of frost. When their feet stepped on them, the broken ice on the ground gradually melted into the soil.

The ducks stared at the pond and watched Dabai step on the ice twice and turn around, and couldn't help but be confused.

Just... it's frozen, what else can they play during the day?

The pond was empty, and the fishing enthusiasts couldn't withstand this sharp drop in temperature. As early as yesterday, when signs of ice appeared on the surface, they rushed home to update their equipment and recharge their batteries.

The ducks looked around blankly, and finally returned to the duck shed with their feet flapping, squeezing together, quacking and quacking, really noisy.

Qiaoqiao came over with a bucket to feed the ducks, his nose and ears were frozen red, but since he was a child who wasn't afraid of the cold, he was determined not to wear a hat!

"Dad, the house is built, but you didn't invite anyone for the topping-out banquet? You didn't tell me either... Oh! If I had known, I would have bought the refrigerator and air conditioner on Double 11! Although the activities are fake, at least it could be a hundred yuan cheaper, enough for our family to eat well for several meals..."

But it was just a little improvement. The duck shed next door was adjacent, so it would be much better than the pond.

Understood, that's the sentiment of rural village life when you are full, warm, and have nothing to do.

The boss of the You Ran vegetable garden next door took his brother-in-law, his younger brother-in-law, and the waiters, and sat in the empty and lonely hall, watching the opposite side busy again early in the morning, feeling so heartbroken that he wanted to bite his handkerchief!

And the reason why Song Youde ran to Zhang Yanping's new house was that Old Xu handed over the house the day before yesterday, but the house was as empty as the dormitory on the mountain.

"Oh right, buy more. When the time comes, Master Jiang and Professor Song's family will also need to be prepared."

Is that reasonable?

……

The area is small, only 30 square meters, but with tables, chairs, snacks, and fruits, in the middle is a large iron stove, with a smoke pipe running through the top—

So Song Tantan contacted someone to send furniture and appliances, and someone had to be there to wait for delivery and installation!

He, who treats everyone equally, soon thought of another problem:

This was a small room specially left when the house was built, considering that villagers would come to visit and the villa living room was too big to chat conveniently!

Why do children have so many questions? I'm tired of answering.

Xin Jun next to him couldn't help laughing, and slowly turned the chestnut on the stove: "I told you to open the chestnut wider, but you insisted on being lazy... Why? Was the flick on the forehead just now fragrant?"

Auntie instantly became energetic.

On the other hand, she sighed: "The big villa is good at everything, but it lacks a stove, and I always feel it's not flavorful enough."

Lan Li:...

Heavens, it adds up to ten thousand yuan!

Chickens love to rake the ground. Where they play, there are vegetable plots and grasslands. It's really a grain of grass seed and a leaf of vegetable that they want to dig out!

"What about the chickens? The pigs? Can they live by the river?"

Pigs can be anywhere, but the current number of breeding on the grassland is just right. If there are more, it will be a bit worse—

And Song Tantan had plans long ago: "If you have time today, go tell Brother Wu Lei to do a disinfection first. In two days, bring Dabai and the ducks directly to the grassland."

Since the temperature dropped, there were fewer and fewer duck eggs. Now, less than 20 can be picked a day. It's not summer or autumn when there are many stored, so Boss Chang has to come over and cry for a while.

Cheap, practical!

And over there, Zhang Yanping also received a call from his eldest daughter, Hongmei:

As long as the fire is lit every morning, the room will quickly become warm in less than ten minutes. It is clean and comfortable. Aunt Lianhua now does some work in this room.

Xin Jun directly exposed him: "But the room next to the kitchen is specially designed for roasting fire!"

After all, picking duck eggs is really happy!

And then he started worrying: "So cold? They have no way to go out and play, will they just stop laying eggs?"

"No," Song Tantan said mercilessly: "Chickens are suitable for the mountains. Next year, we will expand the scale and let them run all over the mountains behind the house."

The back mountain is full of trees and shrubs. When the surroundings are fenced larger, there will be more than enough space.

There is already pasture grass planted by the river, so we can't let them dig everywhere.

She calculated like this, and I don't know if it was a coincidence, but Song Youde, who was huddled in Zhang Yanping's new house, said "Ouch," and his forehead was flicked by a chestnut that exploded on the stove table.

The back mountain is full of trees and shrubs. When the surroundings are fenced larger, there will be more than enough space.

Wait until the mountains on both sides are negotiated, and the sheep jump and run up the mountain. When the space is vacated, we can discuss the pigsty.

By the way, take a bag of chestnuts from the freezer and get a few sweet potatoes from the cellar... Isn't this just a matter of convenience!

Song Youde picked up the chestnut, his expression resentful: "If you have the ability, don't eat the shell I opened!"

Auntie remembered the cheapness she didn't pick up, and at this moment she was annoyed. But after calculating again, the old man's new house was built, and Tantan covered everything. She couldn't just buy air conditioners, refrigerators, and washing machines, right?

—You're already wearing long johns, why wear a hat?

And then started worrying: "So cold? They have no way to go out and play, will they just stop laying eggs?"

—You're already wearing long johns, why wear a hat?

I said it was difficult, but my face was full of longing—

And then started worrying: "So cold? They have no way to go out and play, will they just stop laying eggs?"

—You're already wearing long johns, why wear a hat?

Down jackets are available to everyone, so I won't mention it. In the village, windbreakers are more practical for working in winter... and this thing has a thermal layer, which can be worn in spring, autumn, and winter...

Besides, we have to hatch some more in the spring.

I said it was difficult, but my face was full of longing—

And then started worrying: "So cold? They have no way to go out and play, will they just stop laying eggs?"

Went back and chattered to Song Tantan: "Sister, isn't the duck shed too big? Can you build a big new one for them next year?" ===== CHAPTER 853 =====
