Chapter 351 Building a House
Chen Qing has learned her lesson and doesn't make promises to others casually, lest she forget about it when she's busy.
As for building a room for He Yuan, it was Zhang Dongmei's father who was chosen again. It was Zhang's father who came to apply for it for the second time.
It’s all for his own son.
His son and the widow were already having a very passionate relationship, so he wanted his son to go to the city to work.
Even during the busy farming season, he would not allow his son to stay at home and show affection to a widow!
The reason why he asked his son to come to the city to build a house was because his son had a classmate whose father was good at building houses, and they could form a small team to go to the city to work.
Zhang's father has already discussed with his daughter and asked him to see more of the city's prosperity and let him fall in love with the outside world.
Zhang Dongmei agreed.
But the probability feels small.
Her brother has always been a man of his own ideas, and once he makes a decision, nothing can change his mind.
He liked the widow because she was an educated youth, talented, and one of the last batch of college students.
Her brother's grades were average, but he had always been infatuated with female classmates with good grades since he was a child.
When he was young, he was the follower of the top female student in his class. It was not until junior high school that his classmate dropped out of school and he stopped being a follower.
Unexpectedly, when love began to arise, he found another educated youth.
Zhang Dongmei didn't know how to persuade him, because she felt that the girl was pretty good and liked her brother, so her brother was totally taking advantage of her.
But even though her parents loved her, their minds were not open enough to accept that their son fell in love with a widow who was ten years older than him.
When Zhang Dongmei waited for her brother to come to the city, she told him again and again: "That's someone I'm very grateful to. You have to make their house better, okay?"
"I know." Zhang Dongfei patted his chest and assured: "Sister, don't worry, I will do my best."
A group of them came to the courtyard, and the supervisor was He Yuxiang.
He asked for leave.
Chen Qing refused at first, until He Yuxiang said, "I can get two 100s even if I don't go to school."
Chen Qing was impressed by his show.
So I didn't persuade him anymore.
He Yuxiang supervises them to see if they are cutting corners or being lazy. Although they are young, they already have the workmanship of capitalists.
He Yuxiang felt that the wages paid by his aunt were very high, only one dollar a day, and because the weather was hot, she only let people work seven hours!
7am to 11am.
3pm to 6pm.
He Yuxiang didn't want them to think that city people were easy to cheat, so he wore a fisherman's hat and looked at them with a stern face.
Not only does he have a stern face, he also learns secretly!
He Yuxiang believes that for those who are in need of houses now, building houses can make money and is also a skill. It is always good to have more skills. Learning more will help you find a job better when you grow up.
He was cold, didn't like talking to others, and was walking around the scene, which perfectly fits the stereotype that city people are not easy to mess with.
When Chen Qing saw He Yuxiang's attitude, he just wanted to say: That's just an individual.
While her brother was busy, Zhang Dongmei took time out to take him to the movies.
Zhang Dongfei was very happy watching it.
Zhang Dongmei took her brother to the zoo again, which made Zhang Dongfei even happier.
She kept taking her brother around, and her mother-in-law started yelling at her.
After hearing this, Zhang Dongfei never went out with his sister again.
Zhang Dongmei was angry and aggrieved.
Zhang Dongfei waited for Old Lady Qin to chat at the alley entrance, then came to his sister's house and said, "Actually, she and I didn't make it. She thought it was troublesome to be with me, and I'm still in the stage of pursuing her."
"Then our dad said you kissed!"
"I was playing in the river with her daughter that day. I tripped over something and almost suffocated. She was trying to save me." Zhang Dongfei sighed, "I'm not an adult yet. In her eyes, I'm just a child."
Zhang Dongmei felt that her brother was having a hard time too: "Why don't you find someone else to date? Aren't there many educated youth in the village? And the top student in the grade you liked before is not bad either."
"The top student in the grade has already given birth to two children." said Zhang Dongfei.
Zhang Dongmei's breath was choked.
Suddenly I felt something was pressing on my chest and I couldn't breathe.
"I remember she seems to be only one year older than you?"
"Yes, I once heard that she had given birth, so I sent her a pound of Fuqiang powder. When I was there, her husband didn't react and happily took the powder. But later I heard that she was beaten up by her husband. She was still in confinement at that time!"
Zhang Dongfei gritted his teeth and his eyes turned red when he thought of this.
He doesn't love her.
It's just pure heartache.
The two had been playmates for so many years, but she was tortured like this...
Both siblings were silent.
Xiao Yu said bitterly: "That bad guy who hits his wife casually is really not a human being. If I meet him, I will let Xiao Hei bite him!"
Zhang Dongmei and Zhang Dongfei both looked at the angry little kid at the door.
Zhang Dongmei didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Xiaoyu, why did you come here suddenly?"
"I'm here to see Brother Dongfei. I want to give him a bottle of soda." Xiaoyu gave him the Arctic Ocean.
Zhang Dongfei quickly refused: "No, no."
"Yes! I have learned your labor method. I have already ranked third in the labor class. As long as I get first place, I can go back to the competition."
Xiaoyu was full of fighting spirit and handed the Arctic Ocean to him again.
Zhang Dongfei looked at his sister.
Zhang Dongmei nodded: "You keep it."
Zhang Dongfei immediately took the soda with a grin on his teeth. It was icy cold. He took a sip and his eyes lit up: "You city people have such a good life."
Then, thinking of the city kids in the alley who looked no different, he changed his tone and said, "Xiao Yu, you have a really good life."
"Yes, it's my aunt and uncle-in-law who make my life good." Xiaoyu smiled sweetly.
Zhang Dongfei rubbed her hair and felt that the five-year-old Xiaoyu was really well raised.
He followed Xiaoyu back to the courtyard and asked again, "What is your brother doing?"
"Cook."
"That's fine."
It's lunch time.
All three of them hid in the shade to rest.
The father and son saw Zhang Dongfei's Beibingyang and asked, "Did your sister buy you a soda?"
"no."
Zhang Dongfei shook his head.
He didn't explain who gave it to them, but gave the father and son a sip as well.
The father and son felt refreshed after drinking the water. It was indeed a good place to live in the city. There was everything and the water was so sweet.
He Yuxiang steamed the rice and called them to come and eat.
Chen Qing's family doesn't provide vegetables, but they do provide meals.
So the three people who came to help ate rice with pickles.
This is already a good meal for them.
People in rural areas generally eat coarse grains, and only during the double harvest period can they eat white rice.
After eating, the three of them rested for a while before starting to work.
He Yuxiang continued to put on his fisherman's hat and followed them to learn how to build a house.
