Rebirth in the 1970s with Space

Chapter 25 Arrival at the Courtyard

There are only two households on the high platform of her house. Hers is one of them, and the other is the Sun family who moved to Zhangjia Village a little earlier than Zhang Da and his family.

There was a stream running between the walls of the two courtyards, so although the two families were neighbors, they were also 50 meters away from each other. Because Zhang Da and his family came to the village later than the Sun family, Zhang Qingzhu's family was left with a position inside the mountain.

This location is very delicate. There are mountains to the right and back of Zhang Qingzhu's house, a village in front and below, and Sun's house on the left. To enter or leave, you have to walk across the small bridge over the stream and pass by the door of Sun's house. No one can get up from other places.

The stream flows down the road outside. After going down the slope, you have to walk across a small bridge to reach the main road in the village. This small bridge was built by Zhang Qingzhu's family. It was just a bamboo bridge before. Later, Zhang Bo got a job and felt that the bamboo bridge was not strong enough, so he changed all the bridges in his family into stone bridges.

This place is at the end of the village, and the residential land on the platform is small, so no one from the village chose this place after it was divided.

When the Sun family and Zhang Da and Zhang Bo arrived, the team allocated them a homestead in this area because they were not from the village. Since the Sun family came first, they chose the homestead at the entrance. In terms of size, the Zhang family's homestead is bigger than the Sun family's.

Even though the area is half that of other houses in the village, it can still be considered a small courtyard with two entrances if it is placed in the city. The villagers advocate not to separate the family, so in order to live in a more spacious place, each household has a very large homestead.

Otherwise, there would be no room for 20 or 30 people in the family. And every household has a very large vegetable garden, which can be used not only to grow vegetables but also to grow grain.

The village is backed by a mountain and there is a big river beside it. Whether it is wood, mud, or stone, as long as you have the strength, the cost of building a house will not be too high.

So, as long as the people in the village are not too lazy, their houses are very good. Of course, this refers to mud brick houses, thatched houses and stone thatched houses. Only a very small number of people can afford to build brick houses.

Zhang Qingzhu's house was a stone-walled, blue-tiled house, which was quite nice in the village. But compared with Zhang Jia's blue-brick, blue-tiled house, it was not as nice.

Although Zhang Xue's courtyard was chosen later, more and more younger generations moved out to live on their own after the death of their elders, so that now Zhang Xue's courtyard is located in the center of the village.

Instead, the courtyard, which was originally located next to the central avenue of the village, became the most remote location. So Grandma Zhang followed Zhang Xue to live in the big brick and tile house, and the courtyard was passed on to Zhang Bo's family.

Zhang Da's family was one of the few families in the village that had split up while the elderly were still alive. Zhang Cai's family and Zhang Hong's family built blue brick and tile houses on the left and right of Zhang's family, and the three families' houses were built together.

Before he passed away, Zhang Da built houses for his three sons in the village. No one wanted to live in this old house, so he gave it to Zhang Bo to use when he came back occasionally.

On the surface, these blue brick and tile houses were built with money Zhang Bo paid for, but in fact, Zhang Da used his own savings to build them for his son.

As the son of the Zhang family, Zhang Da received a lot of bonuses and monthly allowances since he was young. Later, when he lived with Zhang Bo, the Zhang family gave him a lot of rewards.

But when he came to Zhangjia Village, he did not act very rich in front of outsiders. When Zhang Da came to the village, he said that he used to work as a helper in a furniture store, but later the store closed, so he brought his children to settle in the countryside. His wife was injured during childbirth and passed away within two years.

So when Zhang Da finished building the house and got married, he said he didn't have much savings left. Everyone believed him. Fortunately, Zhang Da had a carpentry skill and could make furniture for others to earn money. Otherwise, he might not have been able to marry Grandma Zhang.

So even Grandma Zhang didn't know that her husband was a rich man. Before his death, Zhang Da entrusted his savings to Zhang Bo, asking him to wait for the right time to give it to his descendants instead of giving it directly to his children and grandchildren. Zhang Da had a blind trust in his young master

As for why Zhang Da wanted to settle down in Zhangjia Village, it was because he listened to Zhang Bo. Zhang Bo said to settle down here, so he obediently settled down in Zhangjia Village.

As for how his young master, who was so young and had never left Shanghai, knew about the existence of this village, he would not think about it. His young master was so smart and had read so many books, so it was normal for him to know the existence of a village.

All of Zhang Bo's abnormal behavior will automatically become normal in Zhang Da's eyes. There is no need for too much explanation, Zhang Da will give himself a reasonable reason to convince himself.

At present, Zhang Qingzhu does not know these inside stories. Instead, he carefully observed the location of his home and was very satisfied. Although the original owner had been here before, he did not remember the geographical location of his home very well. He only knew that his home was very remote.

Zhang Qingzhu and the others entered the yard and quickly put the luggage in the house. Zhang Xue drove the ox cart away because he had things to deal with in the team in the afternoon. Zhang Cai helped Zhang Qingzhu pack the things he brought.

Zhang Cai also arrived last night. After delivering Zhang Qingzhu's luggage, he put it all in the warehouse of Zhang Qingzhu's house and locked the door and left.

Zhang Cai thought that it was still early for dinner, so he helped Zhang Qingzhu move out some of the things he could use and put them away. He would have to go back to work tomorrow and would not have time to come and help.

The two of them worked for more than two hours before they finished packing. Looking at the time, it was time to go to Zhang's house. It would be bad to go too late. So Zhang Cai took Zhang Qingzhu to Zhang's house.

Before leaving, Zhang Qingzhu took Grandma Zhang's subsidy certificate, 1,000 yuan in cash, some specialties from Shanghai, and gifts for the Zhang family.

These gifts were picked on the way back when I was sitting in a bullock cart with nothing to do, and I entered the space through my spiritual sense or mental power. There were also some things prepared by Yu Hu.

And put it in when Zhang Xue and Zhang Cai were not paying attention after Zhang Song and the others got off the car. Now it was taken out in front of Zhang Cai, as if it had been prepared long ago.

Seeing that he had taken a lot of things, Zhang Cai went to the warehouse and carried a large backpack. He put all the things Zhang Qingzhu had taken out into the backpack. The full backpack made him feel that Zhang Qingzhu had been a bit wasteful.

What he didn't know was that although these things looked like a lot, they were nothing to Zhang Qingzhu. And don't look at them as a lot, in fact, except for the good things for Grandma Zhang, the others were just mediocre.

And this is only the first time. From now on, they should not think that Zhang Qingzhu will give them anything casually.

Zhang Cai carried a backpack and walked with Zhang Qingzhu to Zhang's home. On the way, many villagers came to greet him. Zhang Qingzhu also generously told everyone that he had just returned from Shanghai and brought some Shanghai specialties for the Zhang family.
