Sure enough, the construction team showed up the next day.
He Linyuan paid the deposit and Captain Zhao brought his men here in person.
"Li girl, this is Lao Fang. Just tell him what you want it to look like."
Lao Fang is a dark and thin man who looks very honest, but he is an expert at building houses. Song Li gave him the drawings she had prepared in advance, and Lao Fang understood them after just two glances.
"Do you want to build it in the style of a quadrangle?"
"Yes, every house will be equipped with floor heating. Money is not a problem. Do you think it can be built?" Song Li originally wanted to build a two-story villa, but she didn't like climbing up and down. A courtyard house would be better, with a small yard in the middle, which is convenient for growing flowers and vegetables.
"If you can, leave it to us."
It took a month or two for the house to be built, and Song Li took her two children back to her parents' home.
Ever since Song Chengye and Ding Lanxiang had a big fight a few years ago, there has been no news for so many days. Even if they are divorced, they should have obtained the certificate by now.
Zhang Xiu kept complaining about it for several days at home, until Song Li said that she would go to the food factory to ask about it next time she went to the city, and Zhang Xiu finally felt relieved.
Because Song Li moved in, the food quality of the Song family improved.
Brothers Song Chengcai and Song Chenglin go fishing in the ditch every day. Song Li fries, deep-fries, steams and bakes her food in many different ways. No one knows how she cooks it, but it tastes better than others.
Fish is free, and although it consumes some oil, you can eat meat every day, so even Zhang Xiu has no objection.
Li Guizhi was the one who was most happy about Song Li's return. She learned cooking from Song Li every day and listened to her talk about things in the county. The two sisters-in-law got along better than sisters.
Song Li knew the knot in her second sister-in-law's heart. Li Guizhi had not been able to conceive because she had damaged her body when she gave birth to Xiaohua, resulting in a cold uterus and a deficiency of qi and blood. If she wanted to have a child again, she had to nourish her body first.
She prescribed two doses of medicine for Li Guizhi and asked her to take them for a month. She would definitely have good news after a month.
Li Guizhi was half-believing and half-doubting, but her sister-in-law's words had a kind of magic that made her want to believe it unconsciously.
Besides, she wanted to have another child so much that she had tried so many folk remedies before, so this time wouldn't make a difference.
......
Xiang Qian moved out with his grandmother and sublet the house to Lin Yong, a former colleague of Xiang's father. Lin Yong was also a worker at the sawmill. He had many children in his family, three of whom were married.
When a whole family is squeezed into a house of less than 80 square meters, there are many conflicts.
The news of the sublease was a timely relief, and Lin Yong signed the contract immediately. The rent was five yuan per month, and the lease term was five years.
This is also what Song Li taught Xiang Qian. In case prices rise in the future and the rent is too cheap, he will suffer. If they agree on it now, there will be no disputes if the rent increases in the future.
After the house was sublet, Zhu Cuihua really came to make a scene, but Lin Yong was not Xiang Qian and would not care about letting Grandma Xiang be bullied by her.
Zhu Cuihua was a bully in her family, but she was scared after being blocked at the door by the five brothers of the Lin family. She never dared to make trouble again.
Knowing that there was no hope of buying the house, she scolded Xiang Qian and Grandma Xiang at home for several days. In the end, she was reported by the neighbors and almost called the police before she stopped.
Xiang Qian has been selling the soap necklaces that Song Li gave him these days. Recently, goods from the south have arrived in Heilongjiang Province. After the New Year, he feels that many things are different.
"Sister, do you think that one day we can openly set up stalls and do business without having to hide from the police and not be afraid of being arrested? We can make a good living by doing business."
If you hide for too long, you will lose hope.
Song Li's eyes were firm as she answered him, "Yes! I definitely will!"
The wind from the south has already reached Heilongjiang Province, and the reform and opening up is getting closer and closer. I believe that they will be able to set up stalls openly in the near future.
"If I say I can do it, then I can do it. I believe in me!"
Xiang Qian has a blind trust in Song Li. After all, it is because of following Song Li that he can have what he has today.
I believe it will only get better in the future!
Song Li left him a batch of soaps and daily necessities and asked him to sell them slowly.
Then he was asked to find a few brothers and they were going to start a new business.
This was also what the two of them had agreed on before, selling tea eggs.
The tea is produced in her space. The tea eggs cooked with it are delicious and nutritious, and will definitely be another hit.
Tea eggs are especially easy to make and convenient to sell.
Xiang Qian’s brothers each took a pot and sold them at the station, in front of the cinema, and even in the family compound.
Each tea egg costs 20 cents, and after deducting the cost, you can still make 15 cents. The strategy is to sell at a low price but high volume.
Song Li sold the tea and secret recipe, accounting for 30% of the profits, and Xiang Qian shared the remaining 70% with several brothers.
Because of Song Li's generosity, several brothers wanted to adopt her as their godsister, but in the end they were driven away by Xiang Qian.
"Shameless! They are older than you and still want to take advantage of you. Sister, don't pay any attention to them!"
Song Li looked at Xiang Qian's protective look and said with a smile, "Let them call me whatever they want. You lead the people to work hard and strive to make sure we all live a good life next year."
Xiang Qian was so excited by what she said that he nodded heavily, "Okay! I will definitely live up to my sister's expectations."
After leaving Xiang's house, Song Li rode her bike to the food factory.
There has been no news from Song Chengye, and Song Li is worried that something has happened to him.
The food factory is located at the westernmost end of Songbei County. She asked the security guard at the door, and when he heard that she was looking for Song Chengye, the security guard looked sad.
"Accountant Song was taken away by the police for embezzling factory funds."
"What?"
Song Li never expected this to happen. In order to get revenge, the Ding family directly framed her elder brother.
Song Li was filled with rage and rode her bicycle towards the Public Security Bureau.
Song Chengye has been locked up for half a month.
Since he returned to Ding's house with Ding Lanxiang on New Year's Eve and told his father-in-law and mother-in-law that they wanted a divorce, he was reported for corruption and bribery on the same day and was sent to the police station.
Song Chengye wanted to appeal that he was wrongly accused, but because of the pressure from the Ding family, no one dared to accept his case.
Song Chengye was already in despair.
"Excuse me, is Public Security Liu here?"
Song Li didn't even stop the car, she parked it and went to find Liu Xuejun.
The young policeman saw such a beautiful woman for the first time. His face flushed and he stammered, "Liu... Liu Gongan hasn't come back from his business trip yet..."
"Then when will he be back?" Song Li was anxious.
"No, probably in the next two days. Do you want to report the case? There are other police officers in our Public Security Bureau."
For example, him.
The young police officer was eager to recommend herself. Song Li took a deep breath to relax herself, "Then can you let me meet Song Chengye?"
"Song Chengye?"
The policeman took a few seconds to figure out who he was: an accountant from the food factory who was sent there for corruption.
This crime is very serious. Those who embezzle public property will be shot.
Moreover, this case was investigated and handled personally by the superiors, and the police officer had no right to let Song Li see anyone.
"I'm afraid that's not possible. He's guilty of corruption, and we have to wait until the case is fully investigated before we can allow him to visit the prison."
"I see."
Song Li did not make things difficult for the policeman. It was obvious that the Ding family had no intention of letting Song Chengye go. If she wanted to rescue her elder brother, she had to find evidence of Song Chengye's innocence first.
