She said hello to everyone and went to Carpenter Li's house. It was already dark. She kept praying in her heart that she would never meet Li Aiguo and Li Chunhua again...
Fortunately, the Ping An Brigade was not very large, and it didn't take long for them to reach Carpenter Li's house. Seeing that his door was open and there were several torches lit in the yard, she went straight in:
"Uncle Li, are you busy?"
Carpenter Li was planing wood chips. He turned around when he heard the sound coming from the door. Seeing that it was Lu Zhiqing, he smiled and greeted him:
"Lu Zhiqing is here? I saw your house was built this afternoon and I knew you had to come over tonight."
He pointed to a large wooden barrel and several frames placed against the wall and said:
"The bathtub and window frames are already finished, as is the wardrobe. They will be brought to you tomorrow."
Seeing that there was no room for her to perform, Lu Wensheng sighed in her heart that Uncle Li's emotional value was maxed out, and her impression of him improved a bit.
"Uncle Li, you are really amazing. How much more money do I need to give you?"
Carpenter Li replied, "Let's talk about it after everything is done."
He patted the desk he was working on and said, "See? I've been working overtime for you these past two days."
Lu Wensheng thanked him again, took out a box of Daqianmen from the space and put it on the table, saying: "Thank you for your help, Uncle Li!"
Carpenter Li was also a perceptive person. He knew that Lu Zhiqing was a wealthy man, so he said, "If you have any problem, just tell me. I will do whatever I can for you."
Hearing this, Lu Wensheng pointed at the window frame and said, "Uncle Li, do you have window paper here? Could you help me paste it up?"
She planned to use window paper for a few days until she could get some glass.
Carpenter Li replied, "No problem. I'll take your aunt with me when we go to An tomorrow and let her paste it on for you."
Lu Wensheng responded: "Thank you, Uncle Li. I have one more thing to ask. Where can I buy the mat?"
Carpenter Li said, "You can go to Old Man Ge for this. His bamboo craftsmanship is well-known."
Lu Wensheng nodded to show that he understood: "Then I won't delay Uncle Li's work. I'll go to Uncle Ge's place tomorrow to take a look."
"Okay, go slowly when you go back. Take this and return it to me tomorrow." He pulled out a torch and handed it to Lu Wensheng for lighting.
Lu Wensheng didn't hesitate to take the torch and left.
When she arrived at the educated youth center, Shen Lingling had already boiled water. Seeing Lu Wensheng coming back, she asked her to take a bath:
"Go take a shower and go to bed early tonight. I'll move with you tomorrow."
Lu Wensheng was curious: "How do you know I'm moving tomorrow?"
Shen Lingling said helplessly: "You dried up the kang today, I'm not stupid..."
What a damn tacit understanding!
Lu Wensheng smiled without saying anything, then went to the bathroom with the basin.
After entering the space and taking a bath in the spiritual spring water, I relieved the fatigue of the day and felt like I was reborn. I came out of the bathroom in high spirits and lamented while drying my hair:
Hey, I need a hair dryer... When can I use one...
After standing in the yard for a while, he prepared to go back to the house to sleep when his hair was almost dry. However, when he entered the house, he saw that Bai Qian's bedding was gone, and he wondered:
"What about her?"
Shen Lingling said happily: "I disliked the west wing because it was too small and hot, so I moved to the upper room."
She is really happy without Bai Qian!
Lu Wensheng felt the same way. The two of them slept more comfortably!
They got up early the next morning, but there was no movement in the upper room, probably because they were all sleeping in. When Lu Wensheng came out, Shen Lingling had already prepared breakfast. After the four of them had eaten, Han Muchen and Lu Hao went up the mountain to chop firewood, while Lu Wensheng cleaned the new house and pasted newspapers, and Shen Lingling was still making mung bean soup.
It was almost half past ten when Lu Wensheng finished plastering the walls. She felt a great sense of accomplishment looking at the newly renovated house. She touched the kang and found it was completely dry. She planned to go to Uncle Ge's house and buy a mat to lay on the kang.
At the educated youth point, Zhang Fangfang hurried back from outside and found Shen Lingling and said, "Han Zhiqing caught some fish by the river. He asked me to come back and ask you to bring a bucket over."
Shen Lingling thought that she had nothing to do, so she carried the bucket and walked towards the river. Zhang Fangfang followed closely. Perhaps it was almost noon, as there was no one by the river.
Shen Lingling walked to the river with a bucket and looked around. She didn't see Han Muchen and Lu Hao, so she turned around and asked Zhang Fangfang:
"Zhang Zhiqing, Han...ah!"
“Help…Help!”
Zhang Fangfang was a little nervous at first, but the moment she pushed Shen Lingling into the river, she suddenly calmed down. But she still had the eighty yuan in her pocket, and no one saw it anyway, so Shen Lingling could only have fallen into the water accidentally.
Seeing Shen Lingling still struggling in the water, he hurriedly ran away. Han Muchen and Lu Hao, who had just returned from chopping wood, were so frightened by this scene that they threw the wood on the ground and quickly jumped into the river to save her.
"Brother Chen, left, left, yes, yes, yes, hurry up!"
Under Lu Hao's command, Han Muchen finally caught Shen Lingling who was about to sink to the bottom, and hurriedly hugged her and swam towards the shore.
His heart was beating like a drum. He was really afraid that Shen Lingling would drown. He and Ma Yingjie finally dragged her to the shore.
The two looked at the unconscious Shen Lingling anxiously: "Brother Chen, what should we do!"
Han Muchen said: "I'll watch her, you go find someone and take her to the hospital immediately!"
Ma Yingjie replied: "Okay, I...I'll go find the village chief right now..."
"What's wrong? What's going on?!"
At this moment, Lu Wensheng ran over carrying a roll of mat. She saw Lu Hao and Han Muchen moving around by the river from a distance. When she got closer, she found that it was Lingling!
