Chapter 269 Don’t Be Friends with Geniuses

Early the next morning, Brother Tang and Yan Shenjue went to see it.

In fact, Tang Shitou’s courtyard can be said to be very good.

Although Tang Shitou is a greedy and calculating person, he is not a lazy man. He keeps his house well managed, with solid fences. The best thing is that there is a well in the yard, which is convenient to use.

Moreover, the house is not shabby. The main house has three large rooms, which is common in the countryside. It is divided by the top box cabinet given by Shen Zhuoli, so people can live on both sides. With the ear room and the wing room, it is definitely big enough to live in. There is also a firewood room and a kitchen. There is also a pigpen and a vegetable garden at the back. If my grandfather and his family come and want to raise pigs, there is also a place to raise them.

When Tang Qingshan and Brother Tang came to clean up the house, they looked around twice but couldn't find a good place to clean up the house. They wanted to give Tang Shitou some more money... What kind and thoughtful fellow villagers are they! They knew they needed a house and took the initiative to give it to them!

Brother Tang counted on his fingers: "Grandpa, eldest uncle and aunt, second uncle, third uncle, small pine, small cypress, small bridge... seven couches, oh, couches are enough, each of the side rooms and wing rooms should have a cabinet, right? Two boxes in each room, dining table, chairs and stools..."

Yan Shenjue put his hands behind his back, looked around, and said, "It doesn't seem to match these two top cabinets. These couches really don't look good. Can't they be thrown away?"

Brother Tang had figured it out pretty much, and he couldn't help but laugh when he heard him talk.

He wasn't talking to himself, he just didn't have the confidence to make suggestions so he pretended to be talking to himself, but in his heart he still wanted to respond.

Brother Tang was used to taking care of his younger brother, so he tapped his forehead and said, "I heard that you suggested giving Xiaoyu two hundred taels and asking him to set up the yard, the people, and the tools?"

He directly took out a silver note and gave it to him: "How about this, I will also give you a hundred taels and give you one day. You must buy all the things needed for this house. You can't add money to it yourself. Can you do it?"

Yan Shenjue: “…”

He wanted to say he couldn't do it, but after visiting many woodworking workshops these days, he felt that he could do it.

Brother Tang said, "Don't forget, it's not just furniture, there are also pots and pans, and food. My grandpa and his people are escorts, and when they come here, they definitely won't bring anything except a change of clothes, so if we want them to live comfortably and stay for a long time, we have to buy everything for them."

Yan Shenjue said seriously: "I... really can't I add money to it?"

Brother Tang was amused by him and laughed twice, then he immediately straightened his face and said seriously: "No, not even a penny! I tell you, one hundred taels is a lot to buy these things, fifty taels is not a small amount! Do you believe that another villager can buy them with ten taels?"

Yan Shenjue sighed, "Okay then."

So on this day, Brother Tang truly experienced what it meant to compare prices from three stores, no, compare prices from thirty stores... The two of them went around all the shops in the nearby streets.

Fortunately, he also knows Kung Fu, otherwise his legs would have been broken from running.

Fortunately, a genius is a genius. Yan Shenjue spent most of the day shopping in stores, and then, probably comparing the products in his mind, he spent the remaining half an hour quickly shopping... He entered the store, ordered something, paid the money, and asked them to deliver it to such and such place tomorrow... He left, went into another store, and repeated the above process.

Brother Tang saw this and really wanted to tell him that there is a thing in this world called negotiation!

But forget it. If he knew this, he wouldn’t be able to buy all of them in two days.

Anyway, the two of them spent a day buying everything, and the next morning they sat at home waiting for delivery. After a morning, the whole house looked brand new. Brother Tang looked around but couldn't find anything he was missing.

Seeing Yan Shenjue with his hands behind his back, his expression calm but his beautiful eyes slightly shining, Brother Tang immediately praised him exaggeratedly: "Xiao Jue, you are too amazing!! Much better than me! You are worthy of being a genius. Geniuses are geniuses in everything they do. Mortals like me cannot compare to them."

"It's nothing," Yan Xiaolang said modestly, "In fact, I still made a few mistakes. For example, this table is indeed the best-looking among the cheap ones, but you see, its height is not suitable. If I could buy a slightly shorter one, just one centimeter shorter, such as the one in Xu's shop, the third one on the east bend of Changxing Street, it would be more suitable. It is only eight cents more expensive, but it can be placed under this pattern and it will look more beautiful... For example, this basin..."

Brother Tang: “…”

An ordinary, maybe a little stupid big brother, with only one idea.

He will never be able to be friends with a genius in his life.

Although Yan Shen Jue's behavior is quite funny, just think about it, you spent two days memorizing an article with great difficulty, and then you happily asked him how it went. He calmly told you that although he memorized it after only reading it once, he also mispronounced a word when he read the second sentence. Although he has now memorized eighty articles, that's still less than a hundred!

How sour and refreshing must that feeling be?

He couldn't help but feel sorry for his sister. How miserable she must be to have such a little gentleman! How miserable she must be every day!

So after returning home, he took some time to comfort his little glutinous rice dumpling.

As a result, the glutinous rice dumpling said strangely while eating the candy: "Xinbao is not sad? Not anxious? Because Xinbao is also a genius! When Xinbao is well, he will definitely not need to learn things a second time."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Brother Tang: “…”

The eldest brother was deeply shocked.

Xinbao blinked his eyes and quickly taught the secret: "In fact, you have to learn to use your own strengths to compare with other people's weaknesses! For example, if I want to compete with Brother Xiaoxian, I can't compete in literature or martial arts, but I can compete in medical skills! For example, if you compete with Brother Xiaoxian, you can compare..."

She looked back and forth at Brother Tang, trying to find a good point...

Brother Tang waited silently, and then Xinbao's eyes finally lit up: "You can compare heights with him!! You can also compare heights with Xinbao! You can compare heights with A Niang and everyone in the family!! No one is taller than you!!"

She looked like, "Are you happy?"

Brother Tang said silently: "Thank you."

After living for 16 years, I finally understand what people mean by "big fool"! ! A few days later, the Lin family finally arrived.

As soon as they heard that they had left the city gate, the whole family went out to greet them.

Originally they were just waiting at the entrance of the village, but Mrs. Lin was anxious and kept moving forward, and finally met the Lin family's group halfway.

When she saw the old escort leader Lin, Madam Lin burst into tears, forgetting that there was a little girl at her feet, and ran down to greet him: "Dad!!"
