Chapter 52 What’s It To You!



Soon the three of them arrived at the educated youth site. Lu Wensheng saw from a distance a pile of red bricks and red tiles neatly stacked on the open space on the right side of the site, and a pile of sand next to it. She knew that these were all the things she would need to build a house.

He immediately ran to Village Chief Li and flattered him:

"Uncle, you're so quick! You're a practical man. You must have been busy with my affairs all morning. Thank you for your hard work!"

As he spoke, he took out a pack of tobacco from his small backpack and said with a flattering smile:

"Uncle, I bought this for you when I went to the county town today. You must accept it! I will need your help to take care of me in the country in the future."

In fact, this tobacco was from Lu Hongjun that she had picked up back then, hehe...

It was only when I saw Village Chief Li puffing on his pipe just now that I remembered that she had this good thing.

Village chief Li happily took the tobacco and put it in his pocket. Fortunately, his trouser pocket was big, otherwise it would not have fit in.

He weighed the bag secretly, it must be half a pound! Just by looking at the color, he knew it was top-quality tobacco. He liked this comrade Xiaolu more and more.

"Well, I asked Erzhuzi to go to the commune to buy red bricks for you early in the morning. Now the guy is pulling the beams. We will start the construction once all the materials are collected."

Li Zhenguo is the eldest of the Li family. He is a taciturn person. Now seeing this new educated youth not only speaks fluently but also handles things so skillfully, he feels that he has lived in vain for the past twenty years!

He couldn't help but secretly doubt in his heart, is it really that he is too stupid?

No, in the future he needs to learn more from the educated youth from the city. Even if he can't be good at dealing with everyone, at least he needs to be able to get along with everyone.

So he followed his father and said, "Well, after work is over, I will call my brothers to dig the foundation. It will be cool at night."

He was not afraid of working overtime. Not to mention that he got paid every day, the two bags of brown sugar his mother gave him last night helped him a lot.

So he was a little grateful to Lu Wensheng. No matter what his purpose was, he did get some tangible benefits. With those two bags of brown sugar, his wife's body could recover. If he worked harder, having two children in three years would be no problem!

Lu Wensheng was very happy when he heard that they would do it tonight:

"Thank you very much, Brother Li!"

Li Zhenguo just responded with a silly smile. Lu Wensheng didn't mind and happily thought about how the house would look like when it was built.

"See? That white lime frame is your homestead. When the house is built, I will find someone to build a fence for you so that you can grow some vegetables and raise a chicken if you want." Village chief Li planned for her.

Lu Wensheng looked at the large open space in front of him, which was right between the educated youth site and Li Erzhu's home, about 50 to 60 meters away, and neither side was close. So he nodded with satisfaction and said:

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions. We'll do whatever you say!"

Village chief Li felt even more satisfied when he looked at the girl in front of him, and sighed silently in his heart: If only all the educated youth were like Xiaolu, he would save so much trouble!

At this time, the people at the educated youth camp also heard the noise and came out. The old educated youth had all gone to work, and only Shen Lingling and Lu Hao came.

"Hello, village chief, hello, Brother Li! Sister Lu, when did you come back?"

Seeing that only Shen and Lu were there, Lu Wensheng said, "Just came back a while ago. Where are the others?"

Lu Hao: "Brother Chen went up the mountain. As for Bai Zhiqing..." As he said that, he turned around and looked at Shen Lingling.

Shen Lingling replied: "Sleeping!"

"What? Why are you sleeping in broad daylight?" Village chief Li was distressed. How could a young man just lie on the kang without working?

"oh……"

"Hmph, she will have a hard time tomorrow!" She is still sleeping. Just wait for his punishment!

He had heard that the educated youth Bai was delayed in collecting food because of sleeping. How could he sleep so much at such a young age?

He had disliked her for a long time. She was arrogant and unreasonable, and even called them mud-legged people. If he didn't make things difficult for her, he wouldn't be named Li!

Seeing that the old man was really angry, Lu Wensheng changed the subject and said:

"Uncle Li, let me get some tools to clear the weeds first, so as not to delay my brother Li and the others from coming to work tonight."

Village Chief Li's expression became better now, and he nodded and said:

"Okay, you do it. We'll leave first, as we still have work to do in the fields!"

"Hey, Uncle Li, take care. Brother Li, take care."

Lu Wensheng sent the two away and followed Lu Hao and Shen Lingling to the educated youth point.

It was so hot! She was tired and thirsty...

I couldn't help but ask, "Lü Zhiqing, where did you buy the watermelon? I'll give you money to buy another one later... It's too hot today!"

Ma Yingjie touched his nose and said, "Sister Lu, Shen Zhiqing bought it at noon and said he would cut it when you come back. It's now in the well!"

Lu Wensheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately climbed onto Shen Lingling's neck and said in surprise: "Oh, baby, how come you are so nice!"

Shen Lingling had never seen such a bold person in her life. She was immediately stiff. She didn't know whether to push him away or not. She had to explain with a red face:

"I...you...it's too hot today. I'm afraid you'll get a heat stroke when you come back..."

Lu Wensheng was amused by her reaction. This little sister is quite shy: "Yeah, yeah. Lingling is the best to me!"

Although Shen Lingling was shy, she was really happy! She bought watermelons because Lu Wensheng not only treated her to a meal but also sewed sleeves for her. She wanted to return the favor, so...

As if he had thought of something, he turned to look at Lu Wensheng and said, "Shengsheng, I also sewed a pair of sleeves for you today!"

Lu Wensheng thought about her needlework...

Suppressing the bad feeling, he pretended to be surprised and said, "Really? I'm so happy!"

Shen Lingling lowered her head shyly and said, "Well, it's just not very good..."

Lu Wensheng: “It doesn’t matter! I like everything Lingling sews”, right…?

Seeing these two hugging and hugging each other like they were in love, Lu Hao felt a little uncomfortable:

"Hey~ Stop it, you two. It makes me uncomfortable..."

Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling spoke at the same time: "What does it have to do with you?"

Lu Hao: ...

Looking up at the sky, he said unnecessarily! Brother Chen, where are you...

Han Muchen was currently in Daqing Mountain getting familiar with the terrain. He came here with a mission. His grandfather said that the thing was in Daqing Mountain and asked him to find it!

He had already caught two rabbits along the way, and had not discovered anything else. He muttered to himself as he walked:

"Take your time to look for it. It's not that easy to find it!"

He turned around and walked down the mountain when he saw the sun was about to set. When he came up, he found a newly opened path. Thinking of the things Lu Wensheng brought back yesterday, he guessed that it must have been opened by her.

This route actually saved him a lot of time. In order to prevent being exposed, he cut a bundle of grass at the foot of the mountain and covered the rabbit with it, thinking of giving it a snack in the evening.

It should be okay to let Xiao Sheng do it, right? After all, she is the best cook among all the educated youth...

He doesn't want to work with the old educated youth at all now!

Or...he would move out with Ma Yingjie as well?
