Watching the carriage slowly go away, Lin Qiaoqiao felt a little melancholy. This was the first time she said goodbye to her family in her own home.
The house beams are now completely put up.
Lin Qiaoqiao returned to the house and took a look at the next room. The two kids were sleeping. They got up early in the morning. They were busy playing all afternoon, so it was normal for them to be sleepy.
They returned to the house, and Lin Qiaoqiao picked up the red paper for accounting. She saw that she had collected nearly 300 yuan. The money was tied up in red paper, and the thick stack was very eye-catching.
"It's a lot! The smallest one is 5 yuan, and the big one is 10 yuan. I didn't expect to receive so much money."
Qin Fang, "To be honest, I didn't expect that, I thought they only had two dollars at most.
Chen He didn't come today, probably because he was delayed by something. Lao Wang went back home without even eating after cooking. I will treat him to a meal tomorrow as a way to thank him. The dish today was pretty good and everyone was quite satisfied. "
Lin Qiaoqiao saw that Lao Wang gave 30 yuan as a gift at the end.
"He also gave me a gift worth 30 yuan!"
"I haven't seen this yet!" Qin Fang looked over and saw Lao Wang took 30 yuan.
"I can talk to him tomorrow. This is a bit too much."
Lin Qiaoqiao, "He is just trying to flatter me. If you say anything to him, he will think that you didn't give enough gifts."
Qin Fang thought about it and it seemed like that was the case. "That's it. I remember his wife is about to give birth. I'll give the gift money back then."
Lin Qiaoqiao folded the paper and stuffed it into a book. "You can do whatever you want with this. Although we collected a lot of money today, I feel that we can only get back our investment."
Qin Fang, "It's good enough to get my money back. I thought I would lose money!" He took a sip of water and thought it was still early. "I'll go to the field and see how the seedlings are growing. If I'm tired, I'll take a nap!"
Lin Qiaoqiao nodded, "Okay, go ahead!"
Qin Fang took another sip of water and then took his straw hat and went to the field.
I have to say that the weather is very hot now. You will sweat all over if you just walk around.
I went to the field and saw that the corn seedlings were growing well. I will come back early tomorrow to pull them out.
He Xiuxiu was weeding under the scorching sun. She felt indignant when she thought that they were staying comfortably at home while she had to go out to work.
The moment she looked up, she saw Qin Fang walking towards the village, and she couldn't help but follow him.
Qin Fang felt there was someone behind him, so he turned around and saw it was An Yue's niece. He just glanced at her and continued walking forward, but he walked twice as fast as before.
He Xiuxiu ran and chased but still couldn't catch up. When she stood up and took a breath, the person had disappeared.
I felt extremely disappointed, and thinking that there was still work to be done, I had no choice but to go back to the field.
When I was feeling depressed, I was suddenly hugged. I turned around and saw that it was Liu Guoliang.
"Why are you here?"
"Come and help you with the work." Liu Guoliang laughed.
Seeing that there were no one around, He Xiuxiu gave up struggling.
"Why did you come to see me? What if my aunt saw you?"
"She won't come out!" Liu Guoliang had no other choice. Since it didn't work at home, he had to go out, so he boldly came to the local area.
The weather is quite hot today and everyone has gone to dinner, so he estimated that no one would come to work in the fields. Unexpectedly, his guess was right, and there were indeed not many people working in the surrounding fields.
Thinking of this, the hand started to become restless, and finally carried the person directly into the bushes.
It’s not that He Xiuxiu didn’t resist, but after trying a few times it was useless and that’s how it was.
Before she tried it, she didn’t understand, but after this happened, she felt an indescribable joy…
Little did they know that their scene was seen by the gossipy old woman in the village. The two of them went into the bushes and did not come out for a long time. What else could they do except that?
Such explosive news was even more interesting than the farce that happened this morning. The gossipy old woman stopped working and went back to spread the news.
Everyone was a little bit unconvinced. After all, An Yue was quite capable. She was an expert in housekeeping and was also quite good at managing men.
Liu Guoliang was a very lazy man, but under her teaching he became diligent, otherwise his family would not be living as well as it is now.
Because An Yue was embarrassed by everyone last time, she hid at home and had no idea about the rumors outside.
As the story got more and more popular, everyone began to believe it was true.
What’s funny is that because Liu Guoliang is not very popular, no one told him that whenever he passed by, people behind him would point fingers at him.
He Xiuxiu felt that everyone's looks were a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was going on. Life had to go on.
Since Qin Fang couldn't achieve her goal, she could only choose someone else. Anyway, her dream of marrying into a good family would not be shattered.
…
When starting to renovate the house inside and out, there aren't as many small laborers needed as before.
In addition, the weather was quite hot, so Lin Qiaoqiao simply hired a few people from the village to work as laborers. She ignored the morning meal and only took care of the lunch.
Even though there were many people who wanted to do the work, we still selected 5 people.
As for the skilled worker, he was invited from the county town. He did a pretty good job and didn't talk much. Everything seemed to be going well.
Just after lunch, Li Xiaoyan came to visit with her son.
Lin Qiaoqiao led them into the house and entertained them.
Li Xiaoyan saw the fan on the roof and asked, "What is this? Is it a fan?"
"Yes!" Lin Qiaoqiao led her into the house because Li Xiaoyan would not tell anyone.
"How much does this thing cost? It's really expensive, isn't it?" Li Xiaoyan became interested in the fan because it was so cool. Standing under the fan, she felt cool all over, especially when she was sweating.
"Don't blow the fan all the time. You'll catch a cold easily if you keep blowing it." Lin Qiaoqiao reached out and touched Cao Dashan's head. The child had a chubby face, but most importantly, he was very obedient and likable.
Qin Chuchu was painting in the next room. It was hot and she didn't like to go out, so she took Cao Dashan over and let the two of them play. Then she talked with Li Xiaoyanzi in the room.
"Have you heard?" Li Xiaoyan chose the best position to sit down and felt the fan blowing on her face, which was really comfortable.
Lin Qiaoqiao took the fruit plate on the table to the kang, which contained grapes, peaches, and bananas.
"Stop chatting, eat some fruit! Chuchu has some fruit in her room, and she'll give it to Dashan."
"Your family's living conditions are unparalleled. Not to mention our village, there are only a few in the surrounding villages." Li Xiaoyan picked up the banana and started eating. "You don't know how much I want this. This thing is too expensive. I can't bear to let others buy it."
