Chapter 12: Daily Roasting!



Liu Jianguo stayed.

The two sat on small bamboo chairs in the courtyard.

In front of them was a small square table, which could be used as a dining table or a tea table.

"Lin Zhiqing, the total cost of materials and labor for your courtyard is 278 yuan."

Liu Jianguo handed her the accounts he had written down, saying, "Take a look. You can ask me if you have any questions."

"OK."

Lin Jingyu glanced over at it.

The content is very simple, with every material and labor cost clearly listed.

"Can."

Lin Jingyu took out the rolled-up money from her pocket, counted out 278 yuan and handed it to him, "Uncle Jianguo, please count it and see if the amount is correct."

Grandpa Liu was a veteran who was discharged from the army after being wounded. When he returned, all his family members had passed away.

He lived alone, earning a living by driving an oxcart during the day.

He stayed in a small hut next to the cowshed at night to take care of the village's cattle.

Grandpa Liu should have returned from town by oxcart.

"Third Grandpa, Third Grandpa~"

Lin Jingyu arrived at the small hut next to the cowshed and called out, "Third Grandpa, are you home?"
