Chapter 116 Shocking Others for a Whole Year
Xiao Cailian said, "Let the whole family clean up together later."
Lu Xiang said, "That's too hard." She felt embarrassed.
Xiao Cailian immediately hugged Lu Xiang's arm and kissed her as if she were her own daughter.
Xiao Cailian said, "You're such a nice kid, but you're just too polite. This time, you're thinking about the family, so how can they not help you clean up? Once you're done, we'll set up a nice table and have some wine and have some fun!"
When the people around heard this, they took a deep breath.
Although there used to be a tradition of congratulating someone on moving into a new house, as people have been poor for a long time, this gift has been dispensed with.
When I heard what they said, I felt longing again. It turned out that they were living a good life.
Xiao Cailian said, "Buying such a big house was a big deal in the past. Who could have imagined that my son would be able to live in such a nice house? It's all thanks to Lu Xiang!"
The people around him flattered him even more, "That's right. We were all blind before. We didn't see such a big group of treasures. Lu Xiang is beautiful, capable, and speaks smartly. I don't know why her parents hid her so well."
After a pause, he continued, "It's useless to ask you to pick the good one. If she had been like this back then, how could you have gotten the chance?"
This was said openly, but it was a subtle compliment to Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang smiled awkwardly: "What did you say, aunt?"
Xiao Cailian said, "A person's fate is determined by heaven. Why didn't this happen to someone else, but to my son? This is just the fate of the two of us!"
Lu Xiang secretly gave Fu Qinhui a look, asking him to rescue her. Fu Qinhui understood and said, "Mom, let's go back and change clothes first."
It's covered in dirt and looks unremarkable.
Lu Xiang quickly said: "Yes!"
The aunt next to her smiled and said, "Just now I said you two were clingy, but I really didn't say that I was wronging you."
Xiao Cailian smiled and said, "Then you guys go quickly."
As soon as they left, they heard laughter from behind.
When a married couple is together and wants to go back to their room, there is an unspeakable ambiguity in itself.
But everyone meant well. Lu Xiang was teased, and it was almost a daily occurrence.
Lu Xiang went into the house and secretly changed her clothes. She said to Fu Qinhui, "Mom doesn't seem to be angry anymore."
Xiao Cailian was quite angry when she found out that they bought a house, so why was she showing off?
Fu Qinhui said: "Our mother is not an ordinary person!"
She likes to show off a bit, and now she has bought such a nice house.
I can't stay at home anymore, I have to go out and tell people about the benefits of buying a house.
But it's better this way, it frees everyone up. If she were unhappy all day, her family would feel uncomfortable.
The literacy class was showing initial success, and with the house purchase in mind, the village chief gave everyone a holiday. The Fu family only had one business: making duck necks.
Soon Lu Xiang heard someone knocking on the door.
Lu Xiang opened the door and saw her second and third sister-in-law standing outside.
Mrs. Fu said, "Sister-in-law is pregnant, let us help you clean up."
They had nothing to do anyway, and they really wanted to go and take a look.
Lu Xiang said: "Thank you, sister-in-law, I'll go tomorrow."
Mrs. Fu was impatient and said, "What tomorrow? We just happen to be free and have nothing to do. Let's chat and laugh together. It won't be boring at all. We can finish everything quickly."
After hearing what she said, Lu Xiang had no choice but to go with them.
Fu Qinhui went outside to get a rag and a basin.
They went out together, and Xiao Cailian was still chatting with a group of aunts and grandmas outside.
Seeing that they were going, the others also said, "Let's go to work together!" The villagers are all hardworking people, and it is better to let them move around than to let them stay still.
It's really hard to refuse such a kind invitation.
When they opened the door of the Shen family mansion, Lu Xiang and Fu Qinhui had already gone through a baptism and seemed much calmer this time.
But others were watching it for the first time.
"Oh my God!" I was completely shocked.
They had never seen such a beautiful house.
Although it is dilapidated, the main courtyard is very large, there is a tree inside, and even the bricks and tiles on the eaves are carved.
The villagers don’t understand aesthetics, but just by looking at the blue bricks and tiles, they know that the money is worth a thousand yuan.
One thousand yuan is not even enough to buy half of these bricks and tiles.
The others went from house to house, jokingly saying, "I wonder if there's anything left here."
Someone nearby said, "This house has been raided many times, and they've dug deep into the ground. How could anything be left here?"
"What a shame! I heard someone dug up gold ingots in a house they bought. How much would that be?"
I don't know who said this, but if a rich man had found something, he would have made a fortune. The others were so engrossed in it that they didn't bother to clean it up and left with excuses.
When I got home, I told my family that I wanted to buy the remaining mansions.
If there really is something there, wouldn’t I be rich?
Lu Xiang watched from the side without saying anything. Others only knew that gold and silver jewelry were valuable.
Ever since I noticed the beams and furniture were made of nanmu and red sandalwood, I've taken a closer look. The valuables are all out in the open, but some people don't know that even the tables, chairs, and benches are valuable.
Even the plain vases that remain look ordinary, and the inscriptions on the bottom are from the Song Dynasty.
Everyone helped to clean it up, and the linen turned pitch black after a slight wipe.
If you polish it every day, it will take at least a month to make it look good. This house is indeed very neat. I heard that in the past, even landlords had maids to serve them.
An aunt said, "If I could really live in this house, my life would be worth it."
Lu Xiang said to Xiao Cailian, "Mom, we've reserved a room for you. You can pick whichever room you like."
A smile suddenly appeared on Xiao Cailian's face: "Hey, as long as you have this intention! Mom won't live here." Although she said that, the smile on her face became even brighter.
Giving her such great face in front of outsiders, she is indeed a good daughter-in-law.
As Lu Xiang cleaned up, the other villagers heard the noise and came over to watch. The more they watched, the more impressed they were, even a little jealous: "Wow, you guys are so quick."
He also wanted to save up enough money to buy this house. Living here would be like being a wealthy family. He could enjoy the life of a wealthy family in the past. It was beautiful to talk about.
I envy Lu Xiang more and more. She has good vision and is quick to act. She doesn't hesitate at all when she knows there is something good.
Xiao Cailian stole the show when cleaning the house today.
When the villagers saw the Shen family mansion, they also became interested in the other mansions that they had not bought. Soon the other three were also sold.
There are also people who want to buy houses, but the village has too many people and there is not enough space for them, and people nowadays are not like they used to be.
Now that conditions are better, people are no longer willing to compromise, and all the mansions have been sold.
The village chief also promised that a number of new houses would be built on the other side of the river in the future.
We are still in the planning stage. If anyone wants to buy a house, they can go and register and wait for the planning to be finalized before telling them about it.
