Chapter 484 Moving to the Valley
Chapter 484 Moving to the Valley
There are only two houses at the moment, so men and women will still have to sleep separately after the houses are built.
We can only live in our own rooms after all the houses have been built.
However, the kitchen over there has not been built yet, so they still need to continue eating in the old house for the time being.
In the morning, as soon as it got light, everyone started to work busily. Although no one had much stuff when they arrived, after accumulating for some time, everyone had a lot of stuff.
All the new clothes, shoes, bedding, etc. had to be moved to the house across the valley.
The servants packed all the things into backpacks and went to the new house together.
As we walked along, everyone kept talking, the smiles on their faces grew bigger and bigger, and they chattered about their plans for the future, with their hearts and eyes filled with anticipation for the future.
Xu Han also got up early today. She watched them move all their things to the new house and went to join in the fun.
The new house is very large. Although it is just one room, its area is half that of an ordinary room.
The reason for building such a large house is mainly because there are many people living in each house. If the house is built small, life will inevitably be inconvenient.
At that time, the kang in the room will take up a large part of the space, and other wardrobes, tables and other things will not be able to fit in, making it very troublesome to turn around.
So when building the house, Lu Chuan deliberately built it bigger, so that in addition to the kang, he could put some other things in the house, making life more convenient.
After arriving at the place, Xu Han directed everyone to put their things into the house first, and then helped them to tidy them up.
"Make the beds and put the clothes in the closet first. There's still time, so take your time. We won't work in the morning, so put your things away first."
Liu Erzhu smiled and said, "Madam, we don't have much stuff. We can just lay out the bedding. The clothes and other things are what we will wear in the near future. There is nothing to organize, so it won't delay the work."
The others also echoed, "Yes, ma'am, we can put the things back and continue building the house. We want to finish building the house as soon as possible and live in the new house as soon as possible!"
When Zhou heard this, she quickly stepped forward, grabbed Zhu Chunfeng's ear and yelled, "You little bastard, aren't you living in a new house today? What's wrong? This house is so big that it's not enough for you to sleep in!"
Seeing his mother getting mad, Zhu Chunfeng begged for mercy, "Oh, my mother, that's not what I meant.
This is a big brick and tile house, how could I dislike it! I was so happy.
I'm used to working hard, don't you want to finish it early?"
Everyone looked at the mother and son fighting in front of them, and no one stepped forward to stop the fight. Instead, they watched from the sidelines and gloated over their misfortune.
Mrs. Li did not forget to add fuel to the fire and said, "Hahaha, boss, you have been making mother angry recently. Now let's see if you dare to do this again."
Zhu Chunfeng quickly said, "I won't do that anymore. I will definitely work hard and will never be lazy."
When Zhou heard this, she got even stronger and said, "What? You still want to be lazy and not work?"
"No, no, it's unfair! I really wasn't lazy. I was very hardworking. If you don't believe me, ask dad."
Upon hearing this, Zhou glanced at her old man. Zhu Qiang nodded, and Zhou gave up.
After some fun, everyone packed up their things. There really wasn't anything much that needed to be packed. The only things they moved in this time were some clothes and bedding, eating utensils and work tools, which were all still in the yard!
After all, there is not even a yard here now, and there is really no place to put it.
Originally, Xu Han and the others didn't plan to let them move in so soon, but they wanted to hatch some chickens and ducklings while the temperature was right. However, there was no place to hatch them, so they had no choice but to let them move in first.
It's better to move here, at least the house won't seem too crowded. To be honest, Xu Han really doesn't feel used to living with so many people recently. Her movements are restricted in all aspects, and sometimes she even dares not speak too loudly.
Ever since Han Qi heard Xu Han and Lu Chuan talking last time, whenever Han Qi was at home, Xu Han would subconsciously lower his voice no matter what he said. This scene made Lu Chuan laugh a lot.
You know, the Taoist priest has many more ears than Han Qiling, but Xu Han has never behaved like this before.
Maybe she still didn't trust Han Qi from the bottom of her heart. After all, she didn't have much contact with Han Qi, and her impression of him was not very good.
Therefore, it is normal to be subconsciously wary of Han Qi.
After the servants packed up their things, they picked up their tools and started working again, regardless of Xu Han's dissuasion.
Recently, all the weeds in the fields have been cleared, and now all we have to do is wait for the crops to mature and be harvested.
There was no work to do in the fields, so Mrs. Li and the others helped build the house, and they could also do things like handing bricks to the men in the family or fetching water.
Although women are not as strong as men, they can still do many tasks.
Now with the addition of these women, the house is built faster than before.
As the three little girls were still relatively young, Xu Han did not expect them to be able to do any heavy work, so she let them stay at home to do some needlework and help take care of the vegetable garden.
These jobs were easy, and the girls cherished them very much. Knowing that their jobs were easier than those of others, they dared not stop and wished they could use needles and threads to make clothes all the time.
Seeing that everyone was busy again, Xu Han felt it was not appropriate for her to stay here any longer, so she turned around and went to the orchard.
Today’s eggs have not been picked yet, so let’s go pick them up first.
Zhou has always been responsible for feeding the livestock. Ever since Zhou took over, Xu Han seldom came to the chicken coop. Apart from daily inspections, she has not come here specifically to feed the chickens in recent times.
Zhou said, "Madam, I will go home to get the basket for picking up eggs. Please wait for me here for a while."
"Okay, go ahead. I'll go in and take a look first."
She walked into the orchard, picked a ripe pear, wiped it with her hands and started eating it.
After eating a pear, Zhou came back with a basket. Xu Han was responsible for picking up eggs, while Zhou was responsible for feeding the chickens.
While picking up eggs, Xu Han said, "I see that the pears in the orchard are ripe. When you go back later, bring a few baskets and we'll pick all the pears. Otherwise, they will be eaten by birds when they are ripe, and then they will be wasted."
Zhou looked at the pears on the tree and said with a smile, "It's time to pick them. The pears this year are all very big. I think we can pick a lot."
