Chapter 38 Good News
Zhang Juexia didn't know what method Ye Beixiu used. In the afternoon, everyone in the Ye family went to the back mountain to help open up the wasteland.
This is also what Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu want to see, building houses and clearing land at the same time.
Wang Guilan, Li Yiqun and Ye Suyun would come to help Zhang Juexia cook every day. Zhao Baofeng would also come. She couldn't sit still, so she would sometimes run to the back mountain to help with some work within her ability.
However, Pang Xiujuan had never shown up since they started building the house.
Ye Yunliang felt a little embarrassed, and he explained to Zhang Juexia, "Your mother is not feeling well, she..."
Maybe this person didn't tell any lies, because when he said this, his face was as red as a big piece of cloth.
Zhang Juexia smiled and said, "Uncle San, Mom is not feeling well, just let her take good care of herself."
Zhang Juexia didn't care at all whether Pang Xiujuan showed up or not. What was she doing here? She came and acted like a mother-in-law, telling you what to do, saying this is not allowed and that is not allowed. Isn't this just asking for trouble?
She feels good about the present day.
Ye Beixiu didn't need to help build the house, and with someone to help him clear the land, he could go into the mountains from time to time. If there was game in the trap, he would carry it down. If there was no little confused fish caught, he would catch it.
Zhang Juexia and her friends would also wander around the mountain, picking wood ears and digging wild vegetables.
After the rain, they also pick mushrooms.
Zhang Juexia uses these delicacies given by nature to cook different meals for everyone every day.
Zhang Juexia dried the leftover food and kept it for winter.
A month passed quickly, and Li Chengyi was very satisfied with his work.
Since the owner was willing to buy materials, they worked much more enthusiastically, and the house they built looked exceptionally good.
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu were very satisfied with their new home and expressed their gratitude to Li Chengyi.
After a warm reception, Li Chengyi led his men down the mountain. Before leaving, he specifically reminded Ye Beixiu, "If you need any house-building work in the future, be sure to look for me!"
Zhang Juexia and Ye Beixiu no longer had to live in the shack. The furniture in the front yard had not arrived yet, so they temporarily moved to the warehouse in the backyard.
Ye Beixiu felt that the current warehouse was many times better than the thatched hut they lived in before.
Ye Jishun took advantage of the fact that Zhao Xiang had not come home to make furniture for a few days and took Ye Beixiu to dig a cellar at home.
The cellar digging was done in extreme secrecy, and no one else knew about it except the people involved.
Except for the main room, cellars were dug in all the other rooms, even the three storerooms at the back were not spared.
After finishing all this, Zhao Xiang took his apprentice to the customer's home to make furniture.
Zhang Juexia then realized that Zhao Xiang's apprentice was his youngest son, Zhao Xin, who was sixteen years old and quite skillful at work.
Zhao Xiang was very skillful and had a quick mind. After Zhang Juexia described the appearance and gave him a general idea, he could make something similar.
Because Jinshui Town is quite far away, the father and son stayed at home and planned to go home after making the furniture.
Zhang Juexia couldn't help but ask curiously, "How is your shop's business going?"
Zhao Xiang pointed at Zhao Xin and said, "This is my youngest son. I have the eldest and second oldest sons at home, as well as their mother. The business won't be neglected."
"You are brothers fighting together, father and son fighting together!"
Zhao Xiang is very satisfied with his current life. "Since I have this skill, I don't let my children learn other skills. I let them learn carpentry from me. Having a skill is more important than anything else."
Ye Jishun nodded and said, "You have a good skill. It is not exposed to the wind or rain, and you can still have enough food to eat."
"Who says it isn't?"
Ye Jishun looked at Zhao Xin carefully again, "Have you found a wife, my dear?"
Zhao Xiang shook his head. "Not yet. His mother is a little anxious. I'm fine. I have a skill to rely on. Why should I be anxious?"
"You have to look for it slowly!"
"Marriage is something you can't rush, uncle. I remember your grandson's wife's family is from Dahe Village, right?"
When Zhang Juexia heard Zhao Xiang mention Dahe Village, he responded.
"Are all the people in Dahe Village surnamed Zhang?"
"That should be about the same, right?"
"Do you know Zhang Defu?"
Zhang Juexia looked at Zhao Xiang warily. Zhao Xiang thought she didn't recognize him, so he turned back to chatting with Ye Jishun about family matters. "Marriages are something you really can't take lightly. A while ago, the third son of Liu Hong, a wealthy family in our town, got married, and it was a complete joke."
When Ye Jishun heard that there was something interesting to listen to, he said, "My nephew, come and tell me about it!"
Zhang Juexia also put down the work in his hands and listened carefully.
"The third son of the Liu family arranged a marriage as a child. His daughter is from the same village as your grandson's wife's family. This family is really dishonest. They switched the two daughters before the wedding. On the first day of the wedding, the third son of the Liu family discovered that the bride was a fake and immediately demanded a divorce."
"Can you take a break?"
"Divorce! She was fake to begin with. The Liu family is a well-known family in town. They can just divorce her if they say so!"
"Does the girl's family agree?"
"What else can they do if they don't want to? The girl's mother came to make trouble, and the Liu family simply had her thrown out and said they would report her to the police if she came again. They were already in the wrong, so how could they dare to make trouble again? They had no choice but to leave in disgrace."
"Well, I'd like to say this guy shouldn't do anything bad. He's wasting a grown-up girl. It'll be hard for her to get married in the future."
"Ah, ugh. Uncle, that's not the way to say it. There's no pity for that girl at all. She stole her sister's marriage, so why should she be pitied? If she hadn't been so eager to live a prosperous life, how could this have happened? I heard that the groom chased her out of bed in the middle of the night, her clothes in disarray. All the idle and nosy people in the town took advantage of her."
Seeing that Zhang Juexia was listening not far away, Zhao Xiang lowered his voice embarrassedly, lowered his head, and pretended to continue working.
Zhang Juexia felt so happy in her heart. Zhang Qiuye, this is what you deserve. Ha... ha... ha, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Bei Xiu's wife, what's wrong with you? Is there any good news? Tell us."
"Shopkeeper Zhao, you've worked hard today. My husband hunted some rabbits in the mountains yesterday. I'll stew some rabbit for you."
"Okay, okay. It's better to be close to the mountain. We've been eating meat every day these days. If we keep eating meat, we really won't want to move anymore."
"Manager Zhao, take your time. This furniture requires careful work. Don't rush."
"When we were making furniture for the Liu family, Mrs. Liu told us the same thing. It's a shame to waste our excellent craftsmanship."
"Manager Zhao, you should be happy. Your craftsmanship is so good, and the Liu family's conditions are there. Maybe after a while, their third son will marry again."
