Zhao Jianshe's attitude softened, but he had no idea how much it would cost to expedite the production of a new wooden door. Besides, he had to go home in two days and was in a hurry, so he turned to the old carpenter's apprentice Chen Yechu and asked.
"Ye Chu, how much would it cost to make a wooden door like this in one or two days, including the installation fee?"
Chen Yechu smiled inwardly, it was her turn to take action. She stroked her chin and looked seriously at the wooden door leaning against the wall:
"With such a tight deadline, this wooden door is custom-made. It has to be made to measure and remade, and wood is hard to come by, so the wood is a bit expensive. Add to that the labor costs of overtime, installation, and so on, and it'll cost at least fifty dollars."
Hearing the price, Qiu Hong jumped up again: "You are robbing me. You want fifty for a broken goal? You are trying to extort money from me."
It's you, old hag, who's being blackmailed.
The current Chen Yechu is no longer the person who allowed her to be twisted and squeezed. Now she is Niu Hulu Yechu, and she will not tolerate it. Her eyes turned cold and she retorted rudely:
"Then you can finish the door yourself within a day and find someone to install it yourself. See if there is anyone to help you. Don't go and ask who in the team likes your son. If it weren't for the sake of building comrades, who would be willing to help? You have a problem, who will spoil you?"
"What do you mean by that? Please explain clearly..."
Xia Zhipeng's face turned pale and his expression was gloomy. He turned around and interrupted Qiu Hong.
"Mom, stop talking. This is our fault. We'll pay for it. Let's finish this here and go home. I miss home, and don't let Dad wait anxiously at home."
His mother still doesn't know about the changes and things that have happened to him in the past two years. He has never told his family, and now that he has started a new life, he doesn't want his family to know.
Seeing that her son looked unhappy, Qiu Honghong sighed and said nothing more. She was worried about her son and didn't know how much he had suffered in the countryside.
Xia Zhipeng returned to the kang and took out five big unity notes from the bag his mother had brought and handed them to Zhao Jianshe: "Thank you for your trouble, Brother Jianshe."
He turned around and bowed sincerely to Chen Yechu: "I'm sorry, and thank you."
Chen Yetu had a cold face and did not answer.
This farce ends here.
Xia Zhiou also packed up with his cousins, and they finished packing their luggage in a few minutes. The three of them carried large and small bags. His cousin supported Qiu Hong, who covered her face. The four of them walked quickly out of the Youth League compound.
Qiu Hong had never been so embarrassed in her life as she was today. She came in arrogantly and left in disgrace.
Chen Yechu and Wang Mengmeng laughed heartily as they looked at the backs of the four people.
Wang Mengmeng clapped her hands and was in a very good mood.
"That's good! I've finally gotten rid of this family. When I get home, I'll tell my parents to stay away from them. With his mother's personality, she's going to get into trouble with someone big sooner or later. The whole family will be finished sooner or later. They need to stay away from them as soon as possible and don't let them bring trouble to my family."
Chen Yechu nodded. Wang Mengmeng guessed correctly. In the previous life, his family fell into decline because the old woman had offended the wife of a big shot and suffered retribution. Both of them lost their jobs. What was hateful was that after coming to her house, he did not restrain himself at all and started to torture her, causing her to have a miscarriage and become infertile.
Now she suddenly felt fortunate that she had not given birth to a child, otherwise she would not have been able to give up the child so readily, and she would not have been able to get away from the scumbag so decisively after her rebirth, jump out of the fire pit, and quickly gain a new life.
Zhao Jianshe came over with fifty yuan in his hand and said, "Ye Chu, this money is for you. Please help me pass it to Carpenter Chen."
"No need. We have a farewell dinner tomorrow, right? Let's use this money to buy some pork and vegetables for a good meal. We can also exchange the remaining money with the other members of the team for some dry goods and local specialties to take home."
Chen Yetu smiled and waved his hand, arranging the fifty yuan clearly.
Zhao Jianshe hesitated while holding the money, "Is this okay? What about the door?"
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. You just take the money. There's nothing wrong with it. It's settled. Tomorrow's farewell dinner depends on you and Sister Guifang." Chen Yetu looked at Wu Guifang who was standing beside him.
Wu Guifang smiled and patted her chest to assure him, "Don't worry, I will definitely get it done."
"Okay, I'll trouble you to open the door." Zhao Jianshe smiled and agreed to the decision.
Then Ning Xiyue saw Chen Yechu go back to the house to get the tools, take out the wooden board she had stored in the kitchen for practice, and then take out a new wooden door hinge. She walked to the room where Xia Zhipeng slept, knocked and patched the broken part with a new one, and then used a planer to smooth it out. In less than ten minutes, she repaired and installed the door.
"Ye Chu, you are the best when it comes to making money." Ning Xiyue looked at the newly repaired door and gave her a thumbs up in admiration.
Chen Yetu put away his tools and laughed happily.
"Haha, it was that old woman who came to mess with us before. She was the one who got into trouble. This can be considered as her final contribution to our Youth Home. It can also be considered as a good deed for her."
"Great, Ye Chu."
Wang Mengmeng and Liu Yao touched the intact wooden door and were amazed.
Seeing that the door had been repaired, Zhao Jianshe felt relieved. He put the money in his pocket with peace of mind, and walked over with a smile on his face to discuss the purchase of tomorrow's meals and local specialties with Wu Guifang.
Wu Guifang made a decision upon hearing this: "Don't wait any longer. We are free today. Let's go to the team to collect the dry goods now. Tomorrow morning we will go to the town to buy vegetables and meat."
"Okay, I'll give you twenty yuan first, and we'll split up." Zhao Jianshe took out two "Great Unity" notes from the five and handed them to Wu Guifang: "Remember to keep a record of the bill."
"middle."
As soon as the words fell, two action-oriented people, one carrying a large backpack, ran excitedly towards the team.
