When they returned to Litang Village, many people saw Li Debao driving a lot of goods, and there were third uncle Li Wei and Li Jiahao sitting in the car. They knew that they must have bought a lot of things and came to see if there were anyone they needed to help. The villagers were kind and there was something to help. Needless to say, they would come to help as long as they saw it.
"Oh, is this a rice cooker, or two?" said a sister-in-law.
"This is the floor, this floor is good!" said a big man.
"Will it be too wasteful to lay the floor in an old house?" Many people expressed their incomprehension.
Everyone knows in their hearts that Li Jiahao is a rich man in the village now, and rich people should enjoy it. But many people don’t understand it very much. Rich people like Li Jiahao can buy a house in the city. Why do they have to build a house in the mountains? How great is the city? People in the mountains are trying to get out of the mountains, but Li Jiahao insists on returning to the countryside from the city, which really doesn’t understand.
But it doesn't matter if others don't understand. As long as you are happy, the city is too noisy, the pressure is too great, and there is no human touch. But it is different in the mountain village. Everyone in the village knows it. You can run from the east end of the village to the west end of the village. After dinner, take a walk in the village and chat, it is really a unique flavor. Also, the mountain people in the mountain village are simple and kind. If you are in trouble, you will go all the way together. Unlike in the city, no neighbors know each other.
Anyway, it doesn’t cost much, just live in a comfortable place. But others still don’t understand. It’s really crazy to spend so much money on it for comfort. From now on, the Li Jiahao family will be the most luxurious house in the village. What’s even more puzzling is that renovating the old house is really a waste.
Everyone unloaded the goods and saw a large truck coming to Li Jiahao's house, "Uncle Jiahao, this seems to be a car for your house!" said Li Dawa's child.
The car drove to Li Jiahao's door and stopped, three big men walked out, and said, "Who is Li Jiahao? This is your electrical appliance."
"I am, please put the things in the living room." Li Jiahao said quickly.
Three big men carried the solar energy, TV and refrigerator into the living room, and then drove away.
This was another shock. The villagers couldn't accept it at this time, two solar energy, two refrigerators, and a huge TV. "Baby, why did you buy so many electrical appliances? You don't know how to save some money. Why did your third uncle go with you and don't care about you?" Grandma said blamingly.
When they took the TV apart, everyone was stunned. When did they see such a big TV, as big as a movie screen? In the past, movies were often played in the village, and everyone sat together with a small stool. Now every family has a TV, so there are fewer movies. Now the TV is in front of them, not a movie screen. How much electricity does such a big TV cost? The villagers sighed again. "Jiahao, we will also move a stool to your house to watch TV in the future." That's right, many villagers now have black and white TVs, and the rich ones are at most small color TVs. Now this is a 32-inch large TV, which is the first time I see it.
There are solar energy and refrigerators, which is even more unsuccessful. "San Auntie, you are happy now. Look at how filial the child is, and you have bought you such good electrical appliances. You can enjoy the happiness in the future!" Looking at the envious eyes of the villagers, Auntie San, Uncle San was so happy, it was really impossible to describe it in words. The children kept touching the solar energy and refrigerators with their hands. Jiahui saw it and was afraid that the child would be touched, so she quickly stopped him and said, "Be careful not to touch it."
"Jiahui, you can't touch these things, let them touch them." Li Jiahao said with a smile. Although Li Jiahao promised that he would not be touched, Jiahui still pouted and didn't want the children to touch them.
"Baby, you guys are spending too much money. If you continue to spend like this, then my granddaughter-in-law may not be found." Grandpa blamed.
"Brother, you bought me a new quilt, and then I will live in the old house from now on." Jiahui said with a smile.
"You kid knows that enjoyment is all spoiled by your brother. Go and do your homework for me." Aunt San pointed at Jiahui and said.
"Haha." Jiahui grimaced, like Jiahao squeezing his eyes. Li Jiahao smiled. Indeed, this girl was spoiled by her. As long as this girl wants, she would be satisfied no matter how difficult it was.
At this time, Xiao Diandian ran to Li Jiahao's feet, "Hey, you look so cute when you look at the little thing. I heard that it was the one it found last time." A sister-in-law said.
Xiaodian seemed to understand that others were praising it, and immediately raised his front paws, and walked on the ground with his two hind paws, which made everyone laugh. Li Jiahao couldn't help laughing, "I didn't expect you to be cute." Then Xiaodian rubbed against Li Jiahao's legs again, looking very cute. Finally, the girl Jiahui ran over and took Xiaodian away, "Let's go out to play."
"You girl, you know how to play, and you don't know how to do your homework." Aunt San started cursing again.
But the girl Jiahui pretended not to hear it, and went out with a bunch of children. Suddenly the room became much quieter.
Afterwards, Li Debao brought five or six big men to prepare to start construction. It was not a trivial matter. It was to worship the land father-in-law and the land mother-in-law. Put an incense burner in the yard, light incense, and burn yellow paper. While burning, grandma also said: "Please land father-in-law, land mother-in-law, and all kinds of gods, to ensure the health of people and animals, and to ensure the prosperity of the family and the prosperity of the house." After all, the first shovel began to move.
At this time, the firecrackers prepared by Uncle San began to light up, and the crackling sounds were heard. The mountain people covered their ears, the birds in the forest chirped, and the dogs in the village were also yelling and running around. The candies, biscuits, peanuts and walnuts prepared by Aunt San began to sprinkle them at this time. The children and villagers began to pick up candies and biscuits. The more they picked, the better it was.
Li Jiahao looked at the lively scene and disagreed. The construction of houses in the village is like this, and he must follow the trend, otherwise his grandparents will be blamed again. If you don’t do these things, the construction workers will definitely be very scared and dare not touch the ground. I am afraid that they will alarm any gods and immortals, and they will not dare to offend them. Although they are trying to break superstition now, these are all for good luck, and there is nothing wrong with it.
After eating candy, biscuits, and so on, the villagers also said blessings, such as the prosperity of the family and the health of the people and animals, all of which were heard.
The new house started to be built, and the Li Family was standing happily with the people in the village to chat, disperse the smoke and disperse the candy. The scene was really lively. Twenty minutes later, the crowd dispersed and the construction workers were working very enthusiastically. Li Family was holding the cigarette and carrying the water for a while, and it was very enjoyable to dry it. In a few hours, the lime in several houses had been painted halfway.
Li Jiahao was busy handing cigarettes and water, and the workers were sweating profusely. Li Jiahao quickly asked them to rest, but who dared to rest? The leader was watching from the side. There was also people who gave such wages, so they were embarrassed to not do it well.
