The east and west wing rooms were all built to be spacious, with a three-bay pattern. Behind the two wing rooms, there were two small courtyards. Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan would live there. Shao Yunduan needed to study, so he chose a quieter place.

Shao Dalang, Shao Sanlang and Shao Xiaoqi had rooms of their own, whilst Shao Taotao and Ms. Fang shared the main room.

According to the blueprint given by the first section of the family, the construction team was in full swing on the day of construction, and more than half of the villagers came to watch the excitement.

But no one from the second or the third section of the family showed up. Obviously, they were still very annoyed.

Ms. Fang did not care. She pretended as if her mood was not at all affected.

They did not even care what the Eldest Uncle was thinking at the moment.

Qiao Xuan and her team went into the mountains again, when everyone was so busy.

Qiao Xuan was thinking about the golden sprouts and lavender tea leaves. She had many tea seeds at home last time, but they were not enough. Many seeds were not mature enough and they needed to revisit that place.

They went into the mountains for five days in a row. On the first day, they picked tea seeds, and then they started to seek and pick the creeping figs as well as mushrooms.

The courtyard they were going to live in henceforth was large enough to sun dry those things.

When seeds were taken from the creeping figs, they were sun dried in the sun and were put in the large bamboo pan.

In the meanwhile, they dug more than 20 to 25 kgs of lillies and dates.

There were still many persimmons and wild chestnuts in the mountains, but they had not yet reached the ripe season, and they had to wait for a while before they turned delicious.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan worked for a few days and soon after, visited the Zhang Village again.

The project of opening the land at the Zhang Village was almost done. The couple was very satisfied by the effect.

This was for planting tea trees, not crops, as long as the large and small tree stumps were dug up, it would not matter if the weeds were not cleared.

They needed to make a lot of effort in removing the weeds in the first two days. Then it will slowly fall in place.

By the time the house was built, the opening of the land project would almost come to an end. At that time, they could start to build the side yards.

Building a house was quick. It was much faster and more convenient to lay the foundation and start laying bricks than earth ramming. Building a house would take about four days.

Ms. Fang saw with her own eyes that a tall, magnificent, and spacious main house was built, she felt extremely happy.

The main room was larger, and when that was done, the other rooms would be constructed even faster.

After all the rooms were done, they could build the entire large yard, then the small yards would be divided, along with the utility rooms. They would build sheds for raising chickens and ducks, lay floor tiles, repair drinking pools…

In this way, they would be able to finish the work within one month or so.

Then they would install doors and windows and have the requisite furniture made.

They were definitely going to move in before the New Year.

The other sections of the family were so jealous and furious. After they were driven out the other day, they were secretly paying attention to how fast the new house was built.

Ms. Niu felt very sour inside her heart, seeing the house getting ready little by little.

She turned to look at Second Uncle. “We can build a new house too. Silang needs some space to get married. We need it to look good for him!”

Second Uncle felt quite annoyed too, as he said, “Yes, we will build one on our empty space, not with their help! We are going to get a new house too!”

“True!”

Only then did Ms. Niu feel slightly better.

She was getting a new house too!
