The three renovation workers worked very hard, and after finishing their meal, they started working on their respective tasks. Su Chenhao would occasionally check in with them to update them on the progress of the project. Qiao Xiaoshan assisted them from the side.
Qiao Xiaoni, on the other hand, had some free time. With nothing to do, she went to the market and saw that Old Chen had a pig's head, three pig's trotters, and more than 3 jin of pork belly left. She bought them all.
Old Chen was overjoyed. He thought he wouldn't be able to sell all the meat today, but it all sold out in one go. He was responsible for carrying the packaged meat.
Qiao Xiaoni followed behind all the way back to the store.
She bought so much stuff to prepare for tomorrow's banquet. I wonder what the old family home is preparing. If it's what she's thinking, then there'll be quite a show to watch...
Qiao Xiaoshan was so anxious when he saw that his sister had bought so much meat that he kept pacing back and forth, saying, "I can't eat all of this meat."
Qiao Xiaoni said, "The day after tomorrow, I'll bring you your favorite braised pork, and I'll also ask the chefs to try it."
The three cooks, upon hearing there was meat to eat, exchanged glances, all extremely pleased. This employer was kind; they knew to bring them meat. They were already happy to have white flour buns for lunch. Their attitude towards work naturally became a little more serious.
The work was finished as it was getting dark, and the three workers took their tools and went home.
Qiao Xiaoni and Qiao Xiaoshan exchanged a few more words before riding back with Su Chenhao.
It wasn't appropriate to discuss space matters while on the road, so Qiao Xiaoni only told Su Chenhao about the upcoming arrangements.
After arriving home, Su Chenhao brought the pig's head and trotters he had bought into the house.
Li Meihua felt a pang of heartache again when she saw how much stuff she had bought.
Qiao Xiaoni said to Qiao Haisheng, who was smoking, "Dad, can we bring these things tomorrow?"
Qiao Haisheng glanced at the contents of the bag and asked, "Isn't it a bit much to bring so much stuff?"
Qiao Xiaoni said, "Although Grandpa told us that all we need to do is send people, we can't actually do that! If we don't pay, we can just bring some meat, and then no one will complain about us."
Qiao Haisheng thought of his two troublesome sister-in-laws at home, who could indeed stir up trouble in public. His daughter was more thoughtful than him, the father.
"You're right, we can't let outsiders find fault with us."
Dinner was already prepared. After a quick meal, everyone went back to their rooms to rest after a busy day.
Because of what happened last night, Qiao Xiaoni didn't call Su Chenhao over secretly. She planned to wait until she was done with her work for the next few days before finding a suitable time to talk to him. Anyway, a few more days wouldn't make a difference.
Before I could even lie down on the kang (a heated brick bed), I saw Momo jump in through the window. He was covered in dust, as if he had been in a fight.
Where did you go?
He rolled his eyes silently. With nothing to do during the day, he went to the mountain to kill time. Everything was fine at first, but on his way back, he encountered a large black and white python that kept staring at him for some reason. Since he had no cultivation, he could only skillfully avoid it and barely managed to escape back.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Qiao Xiaoni took out a towel from her space and wiped herself from head to toe. The towel was covered in dust, but she couldn't see any bloodstains.
"Don't come back if you get this dirty again." He casually groomed its fur.
No one had ever taken care of him like this before, mainly because everyone around him was afraid of him. It was the first time he had been cared for like this, and it would be a lie to say he wasn't moved. He really enjoyed the feeling of being cared for.
