The next morning, Yang Jia saw that it was getting late, so he asked Sister-in-law Yang to take him to knock on the door, as it was not appropriate for a man to knock on someone's door alone.
Mrs. Yang knew all the reasons, so she didn't refuse. Even if he didn't mention it, she was still thinking about it.
The two came to Xiaoguo's house and knocked on the door.
After a while, a strong baby voice was heard, asking them to wait a moment.
The sound of running could be heard from far away, gradually getting closer and soon reaching behind the door.
"Auntie!"
Zhuangzhuang called out as soon as he opened the door. He looked at the people around Yang Dasao and rolled his eyes, "Hello, brother!"
Those who are not married should stay in the small room. Just listen to your mother!
Zhuangzhuang thought so.
This title made Yang Dasao and Yang Jiale unable to stop smiling. Their strong little mouths were so sweet.
"Where's your mother?"
After Mrs. Yang finished laughing, she looked at the chubby little face and asked.
After hearing this, Zhuangzhuang opened the door beside him, revealing Xiaoguo who was tidying up in the corner of the yard.
The place she cleaned up was where she wanted to build a hut. It was called a hut, but in fact it was just a shed that could be locked on all four sides. At first she wanted to build it herself, but she was afraid that she couldn't do it safely, and it wouldn't be worth it to ask Qin Anming to come back, so she just found someone in the village to help build one.
"Sister-in-law, come in quickly!"
Xiaoguo heard the sound behind her, so she turned around and asked them to come in quickly.
After hearing this, Zhuangzhuang stepped aside and made way for them to come in.
After rubbing her strong little head, Mrs. Yang took Yang Jia and walked inside.
Zhuangzhuang remembered his mother's words, left the door wide open, and kept an eye on the puppies to make sure they didn't run out.
"Xiao Guo, this is Yang Jia. You can call her sister-in-law."
Sister-in-law Yang introduced each other, Xiao Guo nodded and greeted Yang Jia, and Yang Jia also called her sister-in-law. He knew that she was Shan Hege's wife, so it was right for him to call her sister-in-law.
Xiaoguo responded and looked at the obviously immature boy in front of him.
It should be said that he is a boy. He doesn't look very old at first glance. If he were in the future, he would be a high school student.
You can’t blame Xiaoguo for judging people by their appearance, but can such a young child really move the board?
Before Xiaoguo could doubt it, Yang Jia proved his ability and it turned out that his three years in the military camp were not in vain.
As soon as Yang Jia entered the door, he took up the task of preparing to purchase wooden boards. He first measured the size and the number of boards, and then went to buy them.
Wooden boards are sold in the village. One of the families used to be in the timber business, and now that the man has returned, he has immediately resumed his business.
Yang Jia went to the wood seller alone, moved four large boards and one small board, and kept track of the bill while Xiao Guo went to do the math.
Xiao Guo nodded and said yes. She didn't expect that Yang Jia was so reliable in his work. He didn't use any money as a middleman between the two companies, and there wouldn't be any mess in the future.
Xiaoguo took note and went to settle the money in the afternoon.
The cabin was easy to build, even easier than Xiaoguo had imagined. It was finished in less than a day.
Xiaoguo went back to the house and took out five taels of silver. After Yang Jia washed his hands, Xiaoguo handed the silver over.
"See if it's enough. I also looked at the market price in the county. See if it's less or not?"
Yang Jia took it and looked at it, and was shocked. Why are there so many?
"No, no! Two taels of silver will be enough."
He took the two taels of silver and handed the remaining three taels back.
"It's okay, it's okay. Five ounces is just right! Keep it!"
Yang Jia would definitely not accept it. He refused to take it no matter what and begged for it back into Xiaoguo's hands.
Although money is a good thing, one cannot go against one's conscience. Two taels at most, not a penny more.
While the two were arguing, Zhuangzhuang happened to come across a verse that he didn't understand, so he took out the book and prepared to ask Xiaoguo to help him solve the problem.
As soon as he came out, he saw the two of them pulling each other. Xiao Zhuangzhuang thought his mother was being bullied, and he exploded instantly. He rushed over with all his strength and pushed Yang Jia away, shouting, "You can't bully my mother!"
The voice was shouted with full momentum, and Xiaoguo and Yang Jia were both stunned.
Xiao Guo hugged the angry Zhuang Zhuang and apologized to Yang Jia embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Zhuang Zhuang doesn't understand what's going on."
Yang Jia reacted and laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, Zhuangzhuang is still protecting you, haha!"
Xiaoguo also felt warm in his heart and still had an apologetic smile on his face.
Zhuangzhuang now realized that he had misunderstood someone, so he quickly apologized to Yang Jia and said he was sorry.
A young man should correct his mistakes when he realizes them.
Yang Jia cheerfully said it was okay and accepted Zhuangzhuang's apology. Actually, he didn't think it was a big deal at first, but Xiaoguo told him to accept it, saying that being young is not an excuse for doing something wrong.
Yang Jia immediately understood Xiaoguo's intention, so he accepted Zhuangzhuang's apology and the matter was over.
Later, Xiaoguo insisted on giving him the remaining three taels of silver, but Yang Jia was still not ready to accept it. Xiaoguo rolled her eyes and handed the money to Zhuangzhuang, asking Zhuangzhuang to give it to him and sell him a cute gift at the same time. This way, he would not refuse, right?
Zhuangzhuang understood Xiaoguo's meaning immediately. He took the silver and stuffed it into Yang Jia's hand. He looked at him with his big, twinkling eyes, making him unable to refuse.
Yang Jia paused, sighed, and took the silver.
Following his sturdy little hand, I happened to see the collection of poems he was holding in his arms, and my eyes lit up.
"Zhuangzhuang, is this poetry collection yours?"
Zhuangzhuang looked down and nodded. It was his.
Xiaoguo also looked at the collection of poems, blinked twice, and looked at Yang Jia in confusion. What's wrong with the collection of poems?
"Oh, I'm so sorry. I also like reading and have always liked various poetry collections, so I couldn't help myself when I saw it."
Yang Jia shook his head and spoke embarrassedly.
Xiao Guo nodded in understanding. So that's how it is.
Zhuangzhuang's eyes flickered, and he looked at Yang Jia with sparkling eyes, "I have a lot more, I can lend them to you, but you can't wrinkle them, how about that?"
Zhuangzhuang also likes poetry collections. When he met Yang Jia, who also likes reading, he was very happy. He met someone with similar interests, so he was not stingy with his poetry collections.
Yang Jia was also very happy and felt a little excited, but he knew that he couldn't nod impulsively and had to get Xiaoguo's permission first, so he looked up at Xiaoguo.
Xiao Guo looked at Yang Jia, guessed what he was thinking, and nodded, "Books are strong, so he has the right to decide."
It means that Zhuangzhuang has full authority.
Yang Jia thanked him repeatedly, and Zhuangzhuang dragged him into the house. They came to the bookshelf that Xiaoguo had prepared for Zhuangzhuang and let him choose the books he wanted to read.
Yang Jia was stunned when he came in. He was so shocked that his jaw dropped. The whole wall was filled with books, all arranged in an orderly manner from left to right, neat and tidy.
There are all kinds of books of all types. Yang Jia's eyes are almost not enough. Isn't this a small bookstore? Great! !
