The Ruan Family owned a plot of land at the head of the village. When the Ruanlin Family divided their property, they had already decided to build a house there, so this land was allocated to Ruan Jianguo. The plot was large enough not only for a sizable building but also for a spacious courtyard.
Since this was the first family in the sixth brigade to build a multi-storied house, even the Captain had come, surrounded by a crowd filled with not just villagers but also onlookers from neighboring villages.
After all, few built multi-storied houses in those days, and even if one didn't have their own, it was good to indulge one's eyes on others' constructions.
The crowd buzzed with discussions, each person's comments laced with envy, and while there were some sour remarks, the Ruan Family just pretended not to hear them.
