Chapter 20 Start of Work (1/2)



After being busy for the whole morning, Wang Juan rubbed her stomach and prepared to go to the scrap station to eat.

As she was walking on the road, she was still thinking about what to eat for lunch today. But when she got there, she found out that Zhao Lei had just arrived not long ago.

"Have some noodle dumplings. There's also a can of meat." As we were in a hurry, we could only eat noodle dumplings, but we couldn't fool people too much.

Wang Juan didn’t like it when she heard that they were going to have noodle dumplings for lunch, but she was happy when she heard that there was meat. Even though she disliked that the meat was from canned meat, it was still meat after all.

At the dinner table, Zhao Lei briefly mentioned the house he and Lao Yang had visited. "Lao Yang said that the back half of the house could be made into two floors."

"The lower floor is two meters high, and the upper floor is about 1.9 meters high at the highest point, and the lower part is about 1.5 meters high. It can be enclosed and made into a cabinet to store clothes."

"Lao Yang said that if we build a terrace above the kitchen, we can also open a door from the attic."

Wang Juan thought for a moment and said, "Just go in and out from the attic."

Although there is no privacy in the attic, what is privacy in this day and age?

Zhao Lei had the same idea, "It can save the money for a staircase."

"Maybe there's not enough space." Wang Ke finished a big bowl of noodle dumplings. "The noodle dumpling soup is good. It would be great if I could eat it in the evening."

"You wish." Wang Juan said bluntly, "Why don't you think about it, this is flour and meat."

"I'll make it for you another day, still at the scrap yard." Zhao Lei didn't dare to bring such a cheap thing with him.

Do you think you can eat whatever you want when you are home? Whatever you want, daydreaming is absolutely unacceptable.

When you are eating, the smell may get out and your neighbors may come to visit you.

Wang Ke knew that it was impossible to eat such delicious food continuously, "Thank you, brother."

"We'll start the project today, including labor and materials." It's not that Zhao Lei couldn't get the materials, but it was too complicated.

More importantly, once the neighbors knew that he had obtained the materials for building the house, they would definitely want his help.

Zhao Lei was not opposed to helping his old neighbor, but he was worried that the Zhao family would ask him for help with purchasing, and then he would be getting something for nothing.

The Zhao family moved in. Zhao Lei brought the people who built the house to his home to look at the house and also made preparations for the renovation of the house.

But they all thought that on the third day at the Yu family's house, the craftsmen would already be in place.

Before Zhao Tiezhu and his son went out to work, they saw several workers starting to bring in bricks.

"Renovate the house today?" Zhao Tiezhu heard Zhang Cuiying raise the question.

Zhao Qiang and Zhao Liang were stunned, especially the latter. It's not that they didn't go to Zhang's house, but Zhang Nini didn't give her a good look, especially when she knew she was coming and asked her to do housework, her face completely dropped.

As for his wife, she felt that he did not protect her and even talked to his father-in-law. Zhao Liang really felt aggrieved. Which daughter doesn't do housework after marriage? Does she really think she is the daughter of a capitalist? That's not acceptable.

On their side, neither Zhao Tiezhu nor Zhang Cuiying asked when Zhang Nini would come.

What made him even more anxious was that after the two children knew Zhang Nini went to her parents' home, they only called her mom at first, but never mentioned her again afterwards.

Not to mention crying and wanting his mother, there was no such reaction at all.

Zhao Liang knew that if this continued, the relationship between the two children and them would only become more and more distant.

Now hearing that Zhao Lei was going to rebuild the house, he suddenly felt irritated and didn't understand why things turned out like this.

The man he married was Wang Juan, and in his eyes, neither of them was a smart person.

Zhang Cuizhen nodded, "When we were looking at the house yesterday, Zhao Lei and Lao Yang were the ones who talked the whole time."
