Chapter 19 Building a New House

Just as Gu Ye had said before leaving, Gu’s mother came to discuss building a house with Shen Zhiyu that day. Shen Zhiyu knew nothing about these things, so she brought Chen Cuijuan, Shen Dahe, and Shen Guoqiang along. Knowing that Gu Ye had already arranged for this before leaving, Shen Dahe’s opinion of Gu Ye finally softened a little. He wiped his sweat and said, “Although Yuzu and the others don’t come back to live here often, they should still have a place. Anyway, your yard is big enough, just build a suite. In the future, when Yuzu and Gu Ye have children, they can come back and live here.”

 A suite meant a bedroom plus a front hall. This wasn’t just building a room, it was building a separate house. Shen’s mother estimated that the money Gu Ye had left was just enough. It was their own money to build the house, and they would live in it themselves.

 As long as Shen Zhiyu didn’t mind, she didn’t mind either. ” Yuzu, what do you think?” Chen Cuijuan roughly sketched it out for Shen Zhiyu, who immediately nodded, “I think it’s pretty good, Mom. If the money isn’t enough, I still have some.” It was fine to live at home. If they were to live at Gu Ye’s house in the future, there would be his father-in-law, mother-in-law, older brother, and younger brother, so the bigger the house she could freely move around in, the better.

“Why would you need to spend your money? It’s enough!” Seeing Gu’s mother’s sincerity, Shen Dahe secretly nodded, no longer hiding it, “We’ve also saved some wood, we’ll bring it over and use it together. When this month is over, the work in the fields won’t be so heavy next month, I and the two boys at home can all go and help.” Gu’s mother, “That’s great.”

 This was why it was best to find a daughter-in-law from a well-off family. If you found a daughter-in-law from a poor family, you wouldn’t expect them to help, you would be thankful if they didn’t drag your family down. The Shen family might not be as good as dual-income families in the county.

But Shen Dahe was the team leader of the production team, and Shen Zhiyu had an older brother and a younger brother, if anything needed help, her family could always pitch in. And the most important thing was, you look at the pigsty when you buy a pig! People like Shen Dahe were so generous, Shen Zhiyu, who grew up around them, would definitely not be bad either.

Therefore, even though almost all of the money Gu Ye had left would be spent on building this house, Gu’s mother was still happy! It was such a pleasure to be related to this family! Shen Zhiyu couldn’t get a word in edgewise about the details of when the house would be built, how much material to buy, and how many people to ask for help. But Chen Cuijuan let Shen Zhiyu listen in. A new wife would eventually become a mother-in-law, she had to learn these things slowly. Wang Xiulan, standing by, watched them talk about how to build the house, and how they would buy bricks to build a brick-and-tile house, her eyes were red with envy. Their family was still living in a mud house.

 Gu Ye and Shen Zhiyu, who wouldn’t even be living in the new house for a few days a year, were building it with such beautiful red bricks, wasn’t that wasting good stuff? And the house was being built in Gu’s family’s yard. Although Gu’s mother said it nicely, saying that the house was just for Shen Zhiyu and Gu Ye, and no one else would be allowed to live in it.

But the house was in their yard, and Shen Zhiyu and Gu Ye weren’t usually at home, who knew? Chen Cuijuan was afraid that Wang Xiulan’s mouth would cause trouble, and she had been tightening the reins on her recently. So Wang Xiulan was almost about to burst, but she didn’t dare to say anything in front of Gu’s mother. As soon as Gu’s mother left, she couldn’t hold it in anymore. “

 Yuzu and Little Gu don’t live here often, why build such a big house? In the end, isn’t it just for Little Gu’s two brothers?” Thinking about that beautiful brick-and-tile house, Wang Xiulan was so excited, her saliva almost sprayed onto everyone’s faces, “I say we should build it smaller, and save the rest of the bricks and wood.” “Save it for you to build a house, right?

” Chen Cuijuan directly exposed Wang Xiulan’s little scheme, rolled her eyes, “Don’t pretend to be concerned for us. I know you well, I know what you’re going to do as soon as you sit down!”
