The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 117 Building a House (2)

In addition to more than a dozen young people from the Lin clan, these people also had several original residents of Liuyang Village recommended by Yang Bao, and there were also several from the Mo clan. It was that day that they went to the Mo family to pay New Year's greetings, and they did not force the Mo family to use money to build a building. Several people from the ancestral hall.

The master who built the house was also hired early. Coincidentally, this master's surname was Lu, and he was none other than Liu Tinglan's uncle.

After Mo Yan and Liu Tinglan were rescued, they went back to their respective homes. Liu Tinglan rested at home for a few days, and then went to Mo Yan's house with her parents to express her gratitude to Mo Yan.

The two went through adversity together, and their personalities got along well, and they became good friends as soon as they went back and forth. When she learned that the Mo family was going to build a house, Liu Tinglan immediately recommended her uncle Master Lu to Mo Yan.

Master Lu is well-known in the city. He is the first person many wealthy families think of when building or renovating their houses. He was still a scholar himself, but because he was interested in architecture, despite the strong opposition of his relatives, he lost his books, formed a construction team by himself, and began to build houses for people everywhere.

Master Lu was an upright man and never cut corners when building houses for others. He also knew how to draw pictures and built houses that were both strong and beautiful. He gradually became famous in the capital. In addition, he came from a scholarly family and was famous, so he was different from ordinary architects. He was always polite to anyone who invited him.

If it weren't for Liu Tinglan's request this time, and Master Lu because Mo Yan helped his niece, the Mo family's house wouldn't be able to hire such a 'great god'.

On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Master Lu rushed to Liuyang Village early in the morning with more than 30 partners. According to the drawings given by Mo Yan, he quickly made plans and marked the foot lines with ink.

Looking at the large swaths of black feet, both the helpers and the villagers watching the excitement couldn't help but click their tongues: How many houses must be built in such a large area!

After all the foot lines were marked, more than eighty people took hoes and shovels, threw away their arms, and started working enthusiastically on this wasteland.

The foundation of the Mo family is close to Yuhua Mountain. The terrain is much higher than Liuyang Village, and the view is extremely wide. On the left is the trail into the mountain, and on the right is the river flowing out of the mountain. In terms of Feng Shui, this is definitely a Feng Shui treasure.

To build a house, you must first dig the foundation. The Mo family's building area is not small, and just digging the foundation is a big project.

Fortunately, there were many people helping, and the wages given by the Mo family were generous. Everyone worked very hard, and it took only half a month to dig all the foundations, including the courtyard walls.

While the foundation was being dug, cartloads of stones, bricks, tiles, etc. were also continuously brought in from outside.

These materials for building houses were bought from good stone quarries and good brick cellars through Master Lu, and the prices were very affordable, which saved the Mo family a lot of money.

Mo Yan knew that if it weren't for Master Lu's sake, let alone buying these good things cheaply, there would be a problem whether he could buy them smoothly.

There was so much noise about the Mo family building a house that many people commented sourly behind their backs: "Isn't it just that I made a few bucks? Look at this to show off."

"That's right, there are only a few people living in such a big house. Wouldn't they be too scared to sleep in an empty house at night?"

"Hey, people's money is hot, and we who are just digging in the dirt can't even think about it!"

"..."

Naturally, Mo Yan didn't take these sour words to heart. They were just talking about sour grapes because she couldn't eat the grapes. She couldn't stop them from talking about them. No matter how much these people said, she would cover them up.

If the money is gone, you can make it again. If the house doesn't suit your needs, you can't tear it down and rebuild it again!

If the Mo family's lavish construction of a house with green bricks and tiles makes people in Liuyang Village envious and jealous, then when bags of white glutinous rice are steamed and poured onto the ground, mixed with mud and pounded into rice paste. At that time, almost everyone present was bleeding from the heart.
