Chapter 19 The Plan to Build a House

Happy Reading's...

After buying and selling land yesterday, Ali immediately changed the name of his certificate to his name. It was already an agreement between him and his wife, Litha.

In between the busy work and shuttle Amad, Ali and Litha took the time to shop at the building materials store. Without taking Amad. As usual, Amad is still in the house of Ipah.

All building materials are available near his estate. Starting from sand, cement, soil urug, stone for foundation, brick, also ceramic.

"Alhamdulillah deck, we're done shopping. Now you call mom and dad. You said we needed building coolies to work on our dream home" Ali ordered.

"Yes mas. But why aren't people here doing our house?" ask Litha curiously.

"It looks like our neighbor in his work village is more deft and really deck. We tell them to, let them get a salary. We have to help the people closest to us first, right?"

Litha nodded.

"Yes, the phone is now on deck. I want to clean myself first. It's so sticky on the body".

"Yes mas".

Then Litha called her neighbor in the village, Mbak Neli. At that time, only a few people had cell phones.

Tuutts...

The residence of mbak Neli.

Neli's mother is cooking, suddenly her phone rang.

"Yes hello. What's up Litha?"

"I want to have an important talk with my father and mother" Litha replied across the street.

"Oh, I'll send you a message from Litha. Wanna call now what's gonna happen?"

"If mbak Neli does not bother, now also what is it mbak?"

"I'm actually cooking again. But it's okay mbak, I want otewe to mbak house first. Call Mbah Inem and Mbah Miskun".

Neli's mother walks into Litha's parents' house.

"Sorry to bother you"

"What is mbak. As neighbors we have to help each other right?"

"Yes mbak"

"I call my parents first mbak yes, not on the phone lid" said Neli.

"Yes mbak"
