"What's the matter with you coming to my house?"

Xiao Qingshan held his pipe in his mouth, but did not light it.

Lu Zheng took out the opened cigarettes from his pocket, took out two and handed them over.

"Uncle, I'll tell you the truth. My father worked so hard to find a daughter-in-law, so he abandoned me. I have no one to help me run the business, and I'm afraid I won't be able to return to the city in a short time."

"I don't have a home anymore, so I want to have my own home in this village. I would like to ask you to help me find a place to build a house so that I can have a home!"

Xiao Qingshan nodded.

"There's no precedent for this. I'll discuss it with other village leaders, but it's likely they'll agree."

"There's a lot of wasteland in the village. You can build a house there, but you can't take it with you when you leave. You have to hand it over to the village. Is that okay with you?"

It is actually a waste of time to discuss with others. In fact, building houses for the villagers can still be agreed.

The educated youth's household registration has already been transferred to this village, so it is unreasonable for the people in this village not to approve a residential plot for them.

"I can't build a house by myself. No one knows for sure, and I don't even know where to get the materials. So, Captain, I'll have to worry about this. As for how much money it will cost, please give me an estimate!"

"My deceased relative left me some money when he came here, and I used it to build a house and settle down. It's just enough! It's not a lot of money, so I need the captain's help to figure it out!"

As long as you agree to this matter, it will be easy.

"It's the busy farming season right now. After the next half month, I'll have someone build you a house! Just like the ones in the village, a house made of mud bricks and tiles!"

"Tiles and glass are the most expensive, plus the labor costs, it's going to cost over a hundred. At most, we can only build three ordinary houses like in this village!"

Lu Zheng nodded.

There are houses like this everywhere in the village, and since he had just arrived, he didn't want to stand out too much.

He had a sum of money, which he had divided with his brother. His brother had been thinking about the money, but he had hidden it well and had now brought it to the countryside.

After the house is built, we have to slowly plan. First, we have to get that girl to break off her engagement...

A glimmer flashed in Lu Zheng's eyes. He thanked the captain again and again before leaving the educated youth point.

Guixiang couldn't help but sigh as she looked at Lu Zheng's back.

"What a poor baby!"

Xiao Qingshan knocked on his pipe and poured out all the ashes inside.

"Anyway, he'll be living in our village from now on. As long as he works hard, he'll have food to eat. He won't starve to death!"

Although it is said that men and women are equal, women hold up half the sky.

However, they were still at a disadvantage in terms of strength. At least the lives of ordinary male educated youth were much better than those of female educated youth.

Xiao Qingshan sighed.

Building a house for Lu Zheng is no small matter. He has some money and he is also good-looking. I am afraid that the village will be in turmoil again.

As for Xiao Ru, she was directly dragged home by Wang Hua.

Xiao Ru has been lonely in the mountains for thousands of years. At first, she had no intelligence, and when she gained intelligence, no one talked to her. Now she looks at the world with confusion in her eyes.

Wang Hua sighed sadly.

"My silly girl..."

My daughter is silly. Although I don't mind her and can keep her forever, she will grow old one day and will go away first in the future.

What will happen if this silly child is left alive in this world?

Song Yuan was a down-to-earth child. Although his parents were somewhat reluctant, they finally accepted the favor because of the kindness they had shown him in the past.

Raising a child for 100 years means worrying for 99 years.

Will Mrs. Song torture her own daughter?

Even if this silly girl was bullied, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to explain herself clearly.

Fortunately, the old lady is not in good health and probably won’t live long.

"Ru'er!"

A young man's voice came from outside.

Xiao Ru tilted her head and looked outside the door.
