Chapter 160 Building a House and Getting Beaten

After all the formalities were completed, Zhao Chunming returned to Tai Sheng Rice Shop and left other matters to Wang Jinlai.

Wang Jindong and the two sisters of the Wen family who were dressed as men - Wen Jinshuang and Wen Jinyu, built temporary houses in the Ku Shui Mountain area.

Wang Jindong was very familiar with this type of house, as his family used to live in such a mud and thatched house.

The first step to building a house is to roll adobe bricks. First, tie the straw into pieces and mix them with mud, then roll them into adobe bricks. After the adobe bricks are thoroughly dried, they can be used to build a house.

The beams are made of wood, covered with wooden boards and then straw, and then covered with ceramic tiles. This kind of tile does not need to be fired at high temperature. The person building the house only needs to make a thin blank and dry it with fire to form grooves.

Wen Jinshuang and Wen Jinyu were extremely grateful when they heard that their master had spent his own private savings to buy the mountain in order to accommodate them. However, they had no chance to meet their master to express their gratitude, so they could only work hard.

So the surrounding villagers often saw the three young men working from dawn to dusk.

Wang Jindong was a 14-year-old boy. He took two boys around 12 years old to the foot of the mountain to drag adobe bricks in preparation for building a house.

The nearby villagers deliberately passed by here to see who would live at the foot of Kushui Mountain. Everyone said that the elder brother who escaped from famine brought his two brothers to build a house at the foot of the barren mountain to survive...

Let's not talk about all this for now, let's just say that Wang Jinyi was called by her mother to be punished again, and this time she was hit hard with two rulers. Although her mother was taking her time and didn't want to really hit her child, the palm of Wang Jinyi's left hand was swollen from being hit by the ruler.

Her little hands were swollen like steamed buns and she couldn't even make a fist. Wang Jinyi knew that she had acted on her own and had taken the two girls from the Wen family away. She said that the younger one was a human abductor and the older one was against the court. These two blows were considered a light punishment, so she didn't cry.

The mother was very angry, but she also felt sorry for her child. In fact, Wang Jinyi didn't cry, not because her little hand didn't hurt, but because her mind was not on this hand at all.

Wang Jinyi is now thinking about Zhao Chunming.

Now that he thought about it, Zhao Chunming was quite successful. He had a rice shop under his name, and the business was very good. In a few months, he also owned a mountain, although it was a barren mountain.

But people who don't know would still think that Zhao Chunming has become rich now! Who knew that this is the lady's business? !

Wang Jinyi thought about it seriously. Letting Zhao Chunming be a nominal "director" might be okay in the short term, but it would not test people's hearts. No matter how determined people are, the master needs to use his brain.

We have to think of a good solution. Besides, we can't register all the properties under Zhao Chunming's name!

The nurse applied medicine to the young lady's injured hand while blowing the wind. Seeing that the young lady was dazed, she thought that she was frightened by the beating of the lady, and kept comforting her:

"Miss, you must listen to Madam in the future. No matter what you do, you must use your brain and don't always make Madam angry!"

The mother outside the door felt sorry for her daughter. She clutched the handkerchief in her hand and hardened her heart and refused to look at her daughter. But she was also afraid that she would get angry if her child was hurt, so she just instructed Qing'er to go to the kitchen to make some light meals.

At this time, Wang Jinyi stared with his eyes wide open, but his mind was working fast, and all he could think about was how to build a large-scale infrastructure in Ku Shui Mountain.

Pictures of famous garden buildings that I have seen flashed through my mind one after another.

Rockeries, stained glass windows, borrowed scenery, and long corridors, oh, they are so beautiful!

Wang Jinyi felt that his weakness was architect design, so he naturally thought of a person, that is Wen Bai. He asked him to bring a few books, gave him a rough plan, and asked him to take on this task and do the preliminary construction.

Wang Jinyi was worrying about having too many tentacles and not having many people available to him. When he heard someone blowing their nose outside the door, he shouted:

"Mother!"

The mother responded, "Hey! Mother is here."

She pushed the door open and saw her mother's red nose. Wang Jinyi knew that her mother felt more pain than she did, and she felt the pain in her heart.

However, you have to grit your teeth when disciplining your children. Otherwise, blindly indulging them is no different from feeding them chronic poison.

After all, Wang Jinyi is not really three years old. She is several years older than her mother. How could she not understand these things?

The mother felt that she was too bold and presumptuous in punishing Wang Jinyi these two times. In fact, even Wang Jinyi herself thought that she had indeed gone a bit too far!

If it was my own child who did this, I would beat her harder, but not on her hands. I would definitely hit her on her buttocks, and then punish her by making her kneel down, not allowing her to eat, take a bath, etc.

Wang Jinyi was thinking about all sorts of things with a strong sense of substitution. Her mother came over, held her daughter's little hand, and blew gently. Looking at her mother's slightly trembling hands, Wang Jinyi felt that the two of them had swapped roles.

She stretched out her right hand to help her mother push the long hair on her forehead back. The mother and daughter looked at each other. Wang Jinyi narrowed her eyes and looked at her mother. The mother hugged her daughter tightly:

"Be obedient and good in the future, and don't be so bold!"

"Mom, if I were as silly as other children, would you still like me?"

"Of course I like you. You are my favorite child. I will not love you less just because of what you become!"

"Yes! Now that I am like this, shouldn't my mother like me too?"

"Um?!"

The mother felt that she was confused by this child. No, it seemed that the slapping was in vain. She felt so heartbroken that she began to blame herself. Why didn’t this child receive any education at all?

The mother turned her child's shoulders in confusion and looked at her daughter who was grinning mischievously.

"Alas!"

Wang Jinyi asked all the servants in the room to leave and started chatting with his mother.

"Mother, now that I bought the mountain I want to go and see it."

"No."

"Well, I've already bought that mountain and built a house at the foot of it. I'll ask someone to walk the entire mountain. Is that okay?"

"Do you want Wen Bai to go again?"

"Mother, you are really my good mother, how did you guess it so quickly?"

"This is what Wen Bai asked for himself?"

"Huh? No!"

"Jin'er, you have to know that if he runs away with his two sisters, your father will go to jail!"

"Ah? Is it that serious?"

Wang Jinyi finally understood why her mother beat her so fiercely. This matter was so serious that her father would go to jail.

It seems that I have to be extremely careful about using classical Chinese from now on!

Since the literary and vernacular versions are not working, what should we do? Who else can take on this responsibility?

Wang Jinyi thought about all the people under his control and realized that he didn't have such a person.

Alas, my foresight is too poor. I just keep moving forward without making any preparations. What should I do next?

Seeing her daughter worried about the construction of Ku Shui Mountain, the mother took her child's planning as a big deal. She returned to her room, took out the roster of people living in Yongxing Lane, and looked through it. No one could help her daughter build a house in Ku Shui Mountain!
