Chapter 126 A Day in Vain
After hearing that Xiang Laosi and Chen Sanqiang were helping Pei Huaiyuan, Lin Yunchu came to the Pei family.
At noon, I cooked a meal for them very skillfully.
I fried pork with peppers and made a tofu and fish head soup.
The fish head soup had a rich and refreshing aroma, and the smell made the people working outside feel their stomachs growling.
After finishing, she looked at Chen Sanqiang and Xiang Laosi with a smile.
It was clearly a bright smile like a spring breeze, but Xiang Lao Si gave him a creepy feeling.
"How can we eat it when we just did such a simple thing?"
After pushing the last cart of bricks, he fled.
As soon as he ran, Chen Sanqiang ran away too.
"Xiang Lao Si, you are too cowardly. They invited us to dinner, why wouldn't we eat? We worked all morning."
Chen Sanqiang complained to Lao Si.
"Are you a starving ghost reincarnated? You must have this meal. What is our purpose? Are we here to eat their food? After eating their food, can you still have the heart to do it?"
"And I always feel that the woman has no good intentions. Maybe she put laxatives in our portion."
"We've fallen into her hands several times, and we've learned from our mistakes. Do you want to get into her cage just for a little bit of delicious food?"
Asked the fourth brother back.
"So what are we having for lunch?"
"You can just cook something or eat something cold."
“……”Chen Sanqiang.
"Okay, don't be so unconvinced. It's just a meal. Once we've gotten over this, I'll make you a chicken and stew it for you."
"Okay, I don't have much rice at home. You can go back to your own house to eat. We'll meet at Pei's house after dinner."

Pei family.
"Huaiyuan, I always feel that those two guys have bad intentions. They look like they are here to help, but they are actually causing trouble."
"He has no awareness of being a laborer, and he is just pushing a cart of bricks and rushing around recklessly."
"They also threw bricks randomly. If I hadn't practiced before, I would have been hit by them."
Gu Jiacheng said as he washed his hands.
Pei Huaiyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly and smiled lightly, "Brother, you are not only good at cooking, but also good at martial arts."
Gu Jiacheng could see that they were acting and making trouble, so how come those two didn’t realize that their acting skills were so poor?
But don't refuse people who offer to work like this.
He just happened to be in need of someone to carry bricks.
After being praised like this, Gu Jiacheng's face smiled like a blooming flower.
Take another sip of the fish head and tofu soup. The meat is fresh and delicious, and the tofu is delicate and melts in your mouth. It is simply delicious.
His sister's craftsmanship is really great.
Fortunately, those two guys left, otherwise he would have to compete with them for food.
But when he thought about it again, he felt more and more uncomfortable that such an outstanding girl of his was going to marry Pei Huaiyuan.
The more I think about it, the more I feel like my clean and beautiful cabbage at home has been eaten by a pig.
"Sister, after dinner, go back and help your sister-in-law with her work."
Gu Jiacheng spoke.
Lin Yunchu was a little surprised, but still cooperated and said, "Oh, okay."
“…” Pei Huaiyuan vaguely felt that Gu Jiacheng was a little angry.
After Lin Yunchu returned home, Pei Huaiyuan took out a pack of cigarettes from his bag and handed it to Gu Jiacheng.
Gu Jiacheng doesn’t smoke, but he recognized that these were Phoenix cigarettes!
Everyone in the commune smoked IOUs and could not even afford the three cents a pack of Yangqun brand cigarettes, but Pei Huaiyuan took out a pack of Phoenix cigarettes that cost nearly 80 cents and gave it to him.
The price of this pack of cigarettes is equivalent to his one-day salary.
The sense of honor of being respected came up immediately.
"Huaiyuan, what are you doing? I don't smoke."
"My eldest brother doesn't smoke, but his brothers-in-law and brothers-in-law do. I only have this one pack of good cigarettes, who should I give it to if not my eldest brother?"
"..." Gu Jiacheng was amused, "Then I'll take it."
He really doesn't smoke, but as soon as he takes out this cigarette, he will look very impressive.
It seems that this brother-in-law still knows some etiquette.
Gu Jiacheng started working again in a good mood.
He had just finished building it for a while when Xiang Laosi and Chen Sanqiang came again.
The two found that Pei Huaiyuan was not there.
"Are you looking for Huaiyuan? He felt a little upset that you didn't have lunch at his house, so he went to the company to buy melon seeds and some snacks, saying that he would give them to you later."
I see.
The two continued to work.
The speed, although not as fast as when Pei Huaiyuan was here in the morning, was not slow either.
I just kept waiting, and it was almost evening and Pei Huaiyuan still hadn't come back.
Pei Huaiyuan did go to the commune department store, but the main reason he went there was to buy hardware needed for the house, such as nails.
So after he had packed everything, the sun was almost setting when he came back.
When he entered the yard, he was deeply shocked by the speed of Xiang Laosi, Chen Sanqiang and Gu Jiacheng.
Less than half of the wall had been built in the morning, and when he came back, the kitchen wall had been basically completed.
This progress is really fast.
It was originally expected that it might take a week to complete the kitchen, but now it seems that the roof will be built tomorrow and the tiles will be laid the day after tomorrow. Once the tiles are laid, the kitchen, bathroom and toilet will be completed.
Xiang Laosi had never done any work at home. He had been moving bricks all day and his legs were so tired that they felt weak. When he saw Pei Huaiyuan coming back, he couldn't even straighten his back.
Even if he could get up, he now had no excuse to bump into Pei Huaiyuan.
Xiang Lao Si sighed coldly. Was he going to work for a whole day in vain?
