Chapter 505 The fight started
On the third day after the required quantity of seeds was reported, the county government sent someone to deliver the seeds to the village.
The village head brought everyone to collect the seeds, and then distributed the seeds to each household.
Lu Qingqing looked at the seeds she was given. The surface of the corn kernels was covered with a layer of white and green mixed substance.
I heard from the person who distributed the seeds that this was done to prevent diseases and pests.
Lu Qingqing remembers that when she was a child, the corn seeds planted in the village were all red.
Every time I sow seeds, my palms are stained red.
The seeds have now turned white-green. I don't know what is used, but I think the principle is similar.
Since most of Baoshan Town had to start planting corn again, the men from the village who came to help also asked for leave.
Even the few families who planned to continue growing rice took leave to replenish water in their paddy fields.
Time to plant crops waits for no one.
The people in Lu Qingqing's team did not understand the climate conditions here. Seeing that everyone in Baoshan Town was already planning to plant seeds, they decided to plant the seeds as well.
As for the house, the craftsmen can only build it first.
It took two days for each family to plant the corn kernels.
The temperature has been rising slowly over the past two days.
The old village chief saw that the situation was not right and was afraid that more people would suffer from heatstroke, so he had to reduce the time he worked every day.
Now, it was almost the end of the Si hour, and everyone in the camp went to rest in the shade.
Fortunately, the craftsmen were grateful for the kindness of the people in the team and basically got up to work before dawn.
As for the men who came from Baoshan Town to help, most of them arrived at dawn.
A few people who were extremely unconscious and often late were sent back after being warned twice by the village head.
Now everyone knows that a disaster is coming, and every family is eager to earn more money to take back.
Those who usually have a lot of thoughts have also become honest.
After this experience, the men who came from Baoshan Town to help worked more diligently.
Therefore, the prices of houses are still rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Under the shade of a tree, Lu Qingqing sat on a stone, looking at her own house not far away, hoping that it could be built soon.
The temperature has been getting higher day by day these days, and she feels that the air she breathes in is a little hot.
If the house is built with blue bricks and tiles, the temperature inside will always be much lower.
Moreover, with the shelter of the house and the door closed, it would be easier for her to enter the space.
Now because of the hot weather, everyone's tents were moved under the shade of the trees.
All the families were crowded together, and if you stretched out your hand from your tent, you could reach the tent of the person next to you.
It can be said that there are basically no secrets between the families.
You can hear clearly which man is snoring and which child is grinding his teeth at night.
In this situation, she didn't dare to risk going out to get ice to cool down.
Yesterday, Qin Lang had a layer of prickly heat on his back, and coupled with the sunburn and peeling from building the house, his entire back looked a bit miserable.
When she discovered it in the evening, she applied ointment mixed with space water to him, and the swelling finally went away today.
But Qin Lang was a stickler for details. He was determined that the work of building the house could not be delayed, and he refused to listen even when asked to take a few days off.
These days, we continue to work in the high temperature every day.
Lu Qingqing had no choice but to prepare a few more pots of space water.
Qin Lang was busy, and she was not idle either.
There were so many small tasks involved in building the house that she ran around to help.
After working hard every day, I am covered in sweat.
The clothes on his body were wet and dry, and then wet again.
The men were fine, as they could go to the bay next to the dam to wash in the evening.
The women had a lot of trouble. They could only fetch water from the dam, clean out the tents, and squat inside to wipe them.
But the weather was too hot, and I was sweating again soon after I cleaned myself.
The hot weather not only adds a lot of trouble, but also makes people more irritable.
In recent days, there have been frequent quarrels and fights in the team.
Lu Qingqing had heard it so many times that she was somewhat used to it.
However, during dinner today, some men in the team actually started fighting.
When Lu Qingqing heard the noise and rushed over, she found out that it was Boss Lu and Lu Third who were fighting.
She watched from the side for a while and knew that Lu Laosan was going to suffer this time.
Seeing that Dazhuang wanted to come forward to help, he hurriedly called him over.
When they found out that his hand was scraped, they took him back to apply medicine.
At this time, the two brothers Lu Lao Da were still fighting.
There was no warmth between them as when they first met. They were punching and kicking each other, both wanting to beat each other to death.
Old man Lu watched his two sons fighting. Although he tried to persuade them, he sided with the eldest son with his hands.
This brings us to the cause of today's fight.
After the team settled in Baoshan Town, Old Man Lu and his three sons were immersed in the joy of settling down.
But when it came to demarcating the residential land, the three of them had their first verbal conflict.
After days of indirect inquiries, Old Man Lu already knew that the third brother had a large sum of money.
Therefore, he rarely said that he wanted Boss Lu to take care of him in his old age, but instead implied that he wanted to follow the third brother.
Although Boss Lu was disappointed, he would not force his father to come with him, leaving the family of three to starve.
After each family had chosen their own house site, Boss Lu looked at his empty wallet and had to go to his younger brother to borrow money.
As mentioned before, Sun Cui had been keeping an eye on her own cash box for a long time, fearing that her husband would lend money to his father and brothers.
Therefore, when Boss Lu asked to borrow money, Boss Lu didn't say anything.
Sun Cui jumped out first and said frankly that she didn't have enough money to build a house.
Boss Lu had heard from his father that the third brother was rich. He was very angry when he heard it and asked the third brother if this was how he treated his brothers?
In his heart, Lu Lao San didn't want to lend money to Lu Lao Da, but he didn't want to say it directly.
Now, it was said through Sun Cui's mouth.
When Boss Lu questioned him, he just acted like his wife had the final say and he couldn't make the baby in her belly angry.
When Old Man Lu saw this, he was very unhappy.
In his opinion, sons should be the masters of the family.
But the third son married two wives, both of whom were afraid of their wives.
If Sun Cui is the one who has the final say in the family, just look at her when she looks at me as if she is a burden.
From now on, he will probably not have a good life if he follows the third brother.
After Old Man Lu figured it out, he began to speak up for the boss.
But Lu Lao San had made up his mind and refused to lend money no matter what Lu Lao Da and Old Man Lu said.
Boss Lu had no choice but to ask for help from Boss Lu.
He said he could help him build the house, but once the house was built, he wanted to lend him a room to live in first.
Only then did Lu Laosan agree.
But after this incident, Old Man Lu and Boss Lu were very dissatisfied with Sun Cui and her husband.
But because I have no money, I can only bear it.
During the days after settling down, Lu Lao San continued to spend some money on Lu Lao Da and others.
This resulted in Sun Cui's attitude towards Boss Lu and Old Man Lu becoming even worse.
As for Old Man Lu, she was still concerned about her own man, but it was not so obvious.
But when it comes to Boss Lu, he almost treats him as his own long-term worker.
Every day at dawn he had to help build the house, and when others were resting, he had to go to the dam to fetch water.
In addition to being used for daily cooking and washing, this water is also used to feed horses.
As for Da Zhuang, he was not idle either.
When the adults were working, he was sent out to cut grass.
After no longer fleeing from famine, Lu Laosan and his wife were reluctant to feed the horses anymore, so they asked Dazhuang to cut more grass.
