Chapter 109 Discussing a New House

Wen Wuyan saw Gu Qingqing buy some pig offal again and asked in confusion, "Qingqing, why did you buy it again? Shouldn't you buy it before the next market?"

When it comes to this, Gu Qingqing's eyes immediately light up, and then she shares with Wen Wuyan with a beaming face, "We were supposed to go to the next town market, but you have no idea how good the business is today. A lot of people have gathered at the original stall before I even arrived. If it weren't for the help of the noodle stall owner and Boss Jiang, who knows what would have happened today. Crazy is not enough to describe it."

Then Gu Qingqing told him in detail what happened today, and at the end Erhua repeated what his mother had said.

Erhua went off topic while talking, "Sister, we met Brother An in town today. He brought us crystal dumplings, which were so delicious. He also bought us candied haws. I've already eaten mine, but I'm saving yours. Wait for me, I'll get it for you."

Erhua went to the car to pick up the lunch box. Dahua was worried about her and immediately went to help her. She also corrected her and said, "Erhua, you can call Shen Chenan brother, but you can't say "we"."

"Why? He said we can call him Brother An." Erhua asked puzzledly.

"Because he is not as old as me." Dahua replied.

Erhua instantly became happy and pestered Dahua, "Sister, does that mean he has to call you sister, too? When I see him, I'll tell him that you can't call him brother, he has to call you sister."

Dahua said that she took the lunch box from the car and put it on the small dining table before she opened it.

There was half a plate of neatly arranged crystal shrimp dumplings in the food box, and a candied haws wrapped in oil paper. There was also an oil paper bag next to it, which I guess contained food as well.

Erhua kept chattering on the side, "Sister, look at this, isn't it delicious? My brother An and I ate a few on the way, they were so delicious."

Erhua pursed her lips unconsciously and wanted to reach out to take another one.

In the blink of an eye, the crystal shrimp dumplings disappeared with a snap, and Dahua closed the lid of the food box again.

"Sister."

"Dad and Mom definitely didn't eat them. There are only five of them. You can only eat them at dinner time tonight. Otherwise, if you eat one now, Dad and Mom will definitely give you another one in the evening. We are both children, so one is enough for us. The rest are for Dad and Mom."

After hearing this, Erhua could only swallow her saliva. Knowing that she couldn't eat the crystal shrimp dumplings now, she was thinking about the candied haws in the box.

"Sister, you don't want to eat candied haws either? This one isn't as delicious as the one mom makes, but it's also very sweet."

Erhua's thoughts were written all over her face. Dahua saw through it and said sternly, "No, I'll share it with my parents in the evening."

Erhua saw that she couldn't even get to eat the candied haws, so she pouted and said "oh" unhappily.

"What about Youguozi? Youguozi is my mother..." Erhua was silenced the moment she was glared at.

Dahua glanced at Erhua, then sighed, opened the lid of the food box again, picked up the candied haws, took off the biggest one on the top, and stuffed it into Erhua's mouth before she could react.

"Go play somewhere else. There's only one for today. If you want more, there won't be any more." After saying that, Dahua went back to the house with the lunch box.

A smile instantly appeared on Erhua's face. She then spit the candied haws into her palm and ran after Dahua happily, "Sister, I'll share them with you! Also, mom bought us toys! Yours is a little rabbit."

On the other side, after Gu Qingqing carried the bucket of pig offal to a corner of the yard, she told Wen Wuyan about the drawings she had taken back from Jiang Qingyan today.

"Oh? He actually has the blueprints?" Wen Wuyan was surprised.

"Yes, he said he got it from a friend. I saw one that looked pretty good, so I borrowed it from him and will show it to you later. If you think it's okay, I'll buy the steps tomorrow when I go to town."

After saying that, Gu Qingqing went to the sink to wash her hands. After wiping her hands with the towel handed to her by Wen Wuyan, she took out the drawings from the bamboo basket in the car.

The two sat down and studied it for a while.

Come to the conclusion first, it looks good.

Once again, they concluded that they didn't buy enough bricks.

They originally planned to build five main rooms, three east wing rooms, and finally a utility room and kitchen using blue bricks as the foundation. If they were to build everything according to the blueprint, they would need at least twice as many blue bricks.

Wen Wuyan looked at the three courtyards and hesitated, "Qingqing, we probably don't need so many rooms right now. Besides, aren't these too big?"

Gu Qingqing pointed to the cross-courtyard part and said, "We don't need to build a house here. We can use bamboo as a fence here in the future, and plant flowers inside. There is no need to enclose it with blue bricks. In addition, we can leave the back house part as a reserve. If there are many people in the family in the future, we can build them next to each other. If there are only a few of us, the main house and the wing rooms alone will be enough for us. We can also discard the back house and keep one courtyard."

After Wen Wuyan heard what she said, he suddenly smiled gently, "Qingqing, if we do as you said, why do we need to find a blueprint? Wouldn't it be the same as the houses in the village?"

Gu Qingqing was choked by Wen Wuyan's question, and she wondered why he said it so fluently, wasn't it just the configuration of the houses in the village?

Gu Qingqing asked hesitantly, "How about we remove the cross-campus part? The rest should be based on the blueprint? Do it all in one go?"

Wen Wuyan thought for a moment and said to her, "No, it's not possible. But we have to invite Uncle Zhang He and the village chief to help us figure it out. Let them also calculate the bricks and loess needed to build a three-courtyard house. If it exceeds the cost by too much, we'll do as you said before."

Gu Qingqing stood up and said, "I hope it's not too expensive. If we can afford it, then we can live comfortably here! I'll go and invite them all over."

Seeing Gu Qingqing getting up and walking out, Wen Wuyan suddenly called her back, "Qingqing, I asked Yuzhu to help me deliver a letter to Old Yang today. I promised him that I would treat him to a drink when he comes back."

Gu Qingqing expressed her support and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow to buy you some wine."

Gu Qingqing took Dahei out and went to Niu Zhanghe's house to explain her purpose to him. After getting Niu Zhanghe's reply, she started to enter the village.

After entering the village, I met Zhang Cuilan, who looked down on me and said unhappily, "Hey, if you don't bring a girl, you'll bring a dog. What are you doing in the village?"

Before Gu Qingqing could even speak, Dahei seemed to have smelled shit and barked at Zhang Cuilan, bypassing Gu Qingqing.

Gu Qingqing's breath was stuck in her throat, and she was instantly amused by Dahei's standing up for her.
