Chapter 671 The Young Lady and the Repairman (1)

In the summer after the college entrance examination, Bai Yao moved with her parents to a remote town.

Bai Yao's father is a botanist and has an experimental base here, which is used to cultivate new varieties. As for Bai Yao's mother, she was transferred to the local junior high school and became a junior high school teacher.

The couple considered that their jobs were basically settled here, so they bought a manor that had been vacant for many years. It is said that this manor has a history of hundreds of years and is not small. Bai Yao's mother, in particular, likes the layout of this manor very much.

The front yard can be used to plant flowers, and there is a wooden house in the backyard, which can be used to store miscellaneous items. Of course, it can also be used as a study. In short, there are too many places in this manor that can be used and transformed.

When the family of three moved in, they cleaned up two bedrooms for temporary living. As for other places, they still needed to clean and repair. Bai Yao's parents were not professionals in this area, so they asked several local people to deal with the problems in the house.

They used to live in a big city. Bai Yao was used to the comfortable life of a big lady. They were afraid that she would not be used to living in this town, so her parents were willing to give her whatever she wanted. They bought her everything!

Of course, Bai Yao really didn't like it here.

In this small town, you can't order takeout, and it's not convenient to go out shopping. If you want to go to the city, you have to drive for an hour, which is really troublesome.

But fortunately, she can still play with her mobile phone.

It rained coldly yesterday, but the weather is good today. The sunlight is not too glaring, and it is just the right warmth to dispel the cold.

Bai Yao, wearing a green floral dress and a sun hat, sat on a white bench in the front yard, flipping through the application guide in her hand. In a few days, her college entrance examination results will be out, and her parents respect her opinion on what she wants to study. She can

apply for any major she is interested in. After all, her grades have always been good, and she will definitely have no problem passing the admission line of key universities.

The ping-pong sound next to her was really disturbing, and she couldn't read anything in the book at all.

She asked the people in the bushes, "Aunt Fang, what are you doing over there?"

"It should be the people who are repairing the house knocking on something." Aunt Fang is the nanny hired by the Bai family. She is a local and knows how to plant flowers. The food she cooks is also delicious. She is also hardworking. Now that she has nothing to do, she helps to clean the weeds in the garden.

The hostess of this house said that she wanted to plant roses in the front yard, and she kept it in mind.

Aunt Fang's husband also works in the manor. The couple can have such a good job opportunity, of course they will do everything with all their heart and responsibility.

The name of Minghu Town comes from a lake called Minghu, which is just behind the manor, so everyone calls this manor Minghu Manor.

Bai Yao didn't know who the previous owner of the manor was. She only knew that the manor had a long history. In addition, it had been idle for decades. Most of the manor's wooden structure must have many places that needed repair.

When having dinner yesterday, her parents did say that the invited people would arrive today.

Bai Yao really couldn't concentrate on reading. She threw the book in her hand, pulled down the brim of her hat to cover her face, folded her arms, leaned back in the chair, closed her eyes and rested.

But the knocking sound became louder!

Bai Yao couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up and walked towards the direction of the sound step by step. As the sound became louder, she also saw the person on the roof of the wooden house.

He was a boy about her age, with slightly sweaty black hair, his eyes silently staring at the tools in his hands, and his profile was cold and hard, just like the feeling he gave people.

Although it was not hot today, squatting on the roof facing the sun, his hands were still working, and the warm sunlight was also hot.

He probably stayed outdoors often, his skin showed a healthy wheat color, and beads of sweat slid down his jawline, passing through his neck, passing the vaguely visible collarbone, and disappeared into the white T-shirt.

Perhaps he noticed the eyes observing him, and his movements paused slightly. While turning his face, his eyes drooped, and he happened to meet the eyes of the girl who was looking up on the ground.

Bai Yao held up her hat, her eyebrows slightly raised, "Are you our new repairman?"

The boy nodded and said politely, "Hello."

His voice was exactly the same as the feeling he gave people, without any fluctuations, like a piece of wood.

Bai Yao replied: "Hello."

She said again: "My name is Bai Yao, what about you?"

"He Mian."

Bai Yao chewed his name in her heart, she smiled, "Well, He Mian, I remember you."

She turned around, as if she had forgotten the purpose of reminding him to be quiet when she came, and walked away with brisk steps, as if she was taking a walk, and accidentally discovered this corner, and unexpectedly discovered the boy on the roof.

When Aunt Fang saw Bai Yao walking towards the backyard, she guessed that Bai Yao was going to cause trouble. After all, Bai Yao, the eldest daughter, did have a bad temper. But seeing her walking back in a good mood, she couldn't help but feel strange.

Bai Yao sat back in her chair and asked casually, "Is the man named He Mian also a local?"

Aunt Fang replied, "Yes, he lives near the manor. It seems that the He family has lived nearby since the manor appeared."

"I think he seems to be about my age. Is he working so early?"

"It's all because his parents are not up to the standard." Aunt Fang lowered her voice and said, "His father is a gambler and hasn't been home for several years. His mother was traumatized by this and is a little abnormal. In fact, this child has good grades, but he couldn't continue his studies in the second year of high school. Now his family relies on him alone to support the family."

Everyone in the town knows about the He family's troubles. When mentioning He Mian, everyone will have some sympathy. Aunt Fang is not the kind of person who gossips behind their backs. She only said a few euphemistic words and didn't mention it again.

The Bai family is generous and never delays wages when hiring people.

Aunt Fang thought it was a good thing that He Mian was able to find a job here. She was worried that He Mian, who was taciturn and didn't know how to say nice things, might have upset the young lady, so she couldn't help but say, "Although He Mian doesn't talk much, he is careful and serious in doing things. He has learned to take care of himself at a young age and can repair a little bit of everything."

The implication was that the Bai family had hired him to do the job, which was absolutely worth it.

In fact, He Mian was able to come to the manor to work as a repairman because of the introduction of Aunt Fang's husband. Aunt Fang's husband was trapped in the mountains before, and she was very anxious. It was not realistic for one person to go to the mountains to find someone at night. Later, He Mian helped to find the person who was lost in the mountains.
