Chapter 173

In the next few days, Wang was not at home, and Old Woman Su had always been arbitrary at home. She couldn't hold it in her anger, so she felt so painful.

Almost what happened to Wang before, Zou family encountered each other.

That's it, Old Woman Su has been lying in bed for more than a month and almost two months, and Wang has never come back during this period.

Mrs. Su urged Su Laosan to pick up the person several times, but Su Laosan did not go either.

The old Su family has been making noise like this, and the villagers also regard their affairs as jokes.

There are two major events in Xiangyang Village during the two months of the Chinese New Year.

One thing was that the village chief’s family made money by selling spicy soup in the town. Many people in the village learned to do business, including those who sold steamed buns, those who sold sesame cakes, and those who took their own cabbage and white radish that they grew in winter to sell to the town.

There are many people in the town, no matter whether the business is good or not, as long as you go, you can sell it for a little bit.

So a few people started doing business in the town. They took the village chief’s ox cart out every morning and went home with the village chief’s ox cart in the afternoon.

Anyway, it’s the slack season, and I’m idle. I go around every day and I can sell it for a few cents.

Another big thing is that the large tile house of Su Hongshan’s family is about to be covered with beams.

The main body has been built, and only the capping beam is left.

Xiangyang Village has a tradition. When building a new house, you need to treat guests and set off firecrackers.

In the past, there were always one or two new houses in Xiangyang Village every year, which usually built three mud houses for their sons and daughters-in-law. The neighbors helped each other and built the house.

The so-called "upping the beam" treat means steaming a pot of mixed noodles and placing red choruses to the families who helped them, and giving them a few to the best of luck. It can be regarded as thanking them for helping them build their own house.

On the day of Shangliang, it is better to manage the food for the neighbors who helped build the house, most of which are multiple meat dishes.

The Su Hongshan family is different. Their houses built large blue brick houses, with more than a dozen houses in the southeast, west and north. This is comparable to the houses of the landlords.

So several days in advance, the villagers were urging the village to invite the whole village to dinner when they asked Su Hongshan’s house to be covered with beams.

The village chief’s wife also specifically talked about this to Su Hongshan.

"Daya, look at this matter. If you don't invite it, the villagers will definitely make a fuss. It would be fine if your family built a few houses, but the house is built in a grand manner. The villagers all believe that your family has money. If you don't ask for a good meal, it's unreasonable."

When talking about this, the village chief’s wife sighed.

I don’t know where the gust of wind in the village was blowing. When everyone saw her these days, she asked Su Hongshan’s family whether to invite the villagers to dinner, how many dishes were there, and whether she would like to help.

At the beginning, the village chief’s wife would deal with it casually.

But after being asked too much, she realized that this was not possible. If there was no indication, the villagers would probably have to arrange it.

After all, the house of Su Hongshan's family is really built in a grand manner, and even she couldn't help but envy her, thinking that it was a grand courtyard that could only be lived in by the landlord's house.

Not to mention others.

Since she is Su Hongshan’s godmother, she always has to consider her more, and at least she cannot be told by the villagers.

Looking at the worried look of the village chief’s wife, Su Hongshan smiled and said:

"Godmother, I'm just about to discuss this with you. I'm going to the beam the day after tomorrow. I want to ask my elder brother and sister-in-law to bring me some vegetables when they come back tomorrow."
