Chapter 43 Building a House



A few days later, it was He Jinshu's vacation day. After lunch, Chen Chen and He Jinshu returned to Wujia Village together.

After arriving at the village, he ran into the little kid again. When he saw Shen Zhen's carriage, he ran over and asked, "Brother Shen, I heard that your family is going to build a house. Can my father go to your house to work?"

The child's nickname is Zhuanzi, and his real name is Wu Zhuan. He is 7 years old this year. He was the first child to go to the He family to apologize, and he was also the child who often shouted slogans to He Jinshu in the He family.

Now Shen Zhen was driving the carriage forward, and he was running beside the carriage.

Seeing this, Chen Chen stopped the carriage and asked, "What kind of work can your father do?"

Chen Zhen felt that although this child was naughty, at least he could correct his mistakes and had good character, so it was not impossible for him to give him a chance to work.

When Zhuanzi heard this, he said happily, "My father can do all kinds of work. He used to help others build walls and he can mix mud too."

"Okay, then ask him to come to the He family to find Li Mo in a couple of days. I'll give him something to do then." Chen Chen said to Zhuangzi.

Upon hearing this, Zhuanzi immediately bowed deeply to Chen Chen, and then said excitedly: "Thank you, Brother Chen. In the future, I will definitely sing praises for Mr. He in the He family and let his reputation spread far and wide in our ten miles and eight villages."

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen waved his hand and said, “Ashu doesn’t like being praised in this way, so you don’t have to shout slogans like this anymore.

In the future, when you chat with others, just say more good things about him. If anyone says something bad about him, tell me and I will deal with him."

"Okay, I will definitely say more good things about Xiucai in the future." Zhuanzi patted his chest and promised.

"You go home, we are leaving."

After Chen Zhen finished speaking, he drove away in his carriage.

He Jinshu, who was sitting in the carriage, listened to the conversation between the two people outside. He was a little numb to Chen Zhen's persistence in praising his reputation, so he simply ignored him.

After arriving home, Chen Zhen told Li Mo what had just happened.

After hearing this, Li Mo said, "I just wanted to discuss this with you guys. In the past two days, many people in the village have come to ask if we still need workers. Do we still need to recruit people?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Chen looked at He Jinshu and asked, "Ah Shu, are we going to recruit people in the village?"

There are a total of 10 people in the construction team, and they are all good at their work. However, if we want to speed up the progress, we need to hire more people.

However, given the previous performance of the people in Wujia Village, Chen Zhen wanted to ask He Jinshu's opinion. If he was unwilling, they could recruit people from other places.

"You can find some people with good character." He Jinshu said lightly.

The people in Wujia Village do sometimes quarrel with others easily, but this is because the village is too poor. Now that they can provide opportunities for them to make some money, it is not a bad idea.

After hearing this, Chen Zhen nodded and said to Li Mo, "Then find a few honest and hardworking people to come and do the work."

"Okay, I got it. I will arrange it in the next few days." Li Mo nodded and said.

After breakfast the next day, Li Mo first carried Grandpa He to the rocking chair at the door, and then planned to go to the village to discuss recruiting.

Chen Zhen was at home with nothing to do, so he decided to go along and take a look. He even asked He Jinshu, "Ah Shu, do you want to go along and take a look too?"

He Jinshu shook his head and said, "No, I still have to go to school."

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhen stopped trying to persuade him and followed Li Mo out.

Grandpa He sat in the rocking chair and watched Chen Chen's back as he left the house. Then he said to He Jinshu, "Xiaoshu, many of Chen Chen'er's ideas are different from others. If you have any problems in the future, you can discuss them with him more often. Perhaps you will gain something unexpected."

"Okay." He Jinshu responded, and then said to Grandpa He: "Grandpa, I'll find a doctor to check your legs for you later, okay?"

He will have his vacation in more than a month, and then Chen Zhen will help Grandpa He treat his leg. Chen Zhen said that it can be cured in 5 times. He needs to find a doctor to check Grandpa's leg in advance, and then cover up the fact that Chen Zhen helped with the treatment.

Grandpa He touched his knee upon hearing this, then smiled and said, "Why bother treating it? Don't waste the money. I've gotten used to it over the years, but it's a bit of a burden on you."

He Jinshu felt an indescribable emotion surge in his heart after hearing this, but he did not show it on his face. Instead, he said in a gentle voice, "The doctor this time is different. He will definitely be able to cure your leg."

Grandpa He thought He Jinshu said this in order to get him to agree to treat his leg, so he waved his hand and refused, "Xiaoshu, I know you mean well, but after all these years of tossing and turning, this is the result, so your efforts are in vain.

I think things are pretty good now. Since I had my son, I have enjoyed a lot of happiness. When I pass away, I won’t have any regrets. "

After saying that, he shook his body and rocked twice in the rocking chair. This rocking chair is really comfortable to sit in, Grandpa He sighed inwardly.

Seeing the satisfied look on Grandpa He's face, He Jinshu moved the chair he was sitting on closer to Grandpa He's rocking chair, and then whispered to him seriously, "Grandpa, this time the doctor can really cure your leg."

Although it was hard to believe that paralyzed legs could be cured, He Jinshu had to believe it after seeing Chen Chen's ability.

Grandpa He looked at He Jinshu's serious expression, sat up slightly from his rocking chair, and then asked in disbelief, "Xiaoshu, are you telling the truth?"

He Jinshu nodded slightly and said, "Just listen to my arrangements on this matter, and don't ask any more questions."

"Xiaoshu, tell grandpa the truth, will treating my leg have any impact on you?" Grandpa He asked He Jinshu, staring at him.

If such an outrageous thing happens to Xiaoshu, I will definitely not agree to it, Grandpa He thought to himself.

After hearing this, He Jinshu felt warm in his heart, and then he comforted him: "Grandpa, don't worry, this will not affect me, just cooperate when the time comes."

After hearing this, Grandpa He felt relieved for the time being. Although he didn't have much hope of curing his leg, since Xiaoshu said so confidently that it could be cured, it wouldn't hurt for him to treat it again. If the leg could be cured, maybe he could help his grandson.

So Grandpa He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you arrange when the time comes."

He Jinshu nodded when he heard this, chatted with Grandpa He for a few more words, then got up and went to the study to read.

On the other side, Chen Chen and Li Mo were organizing the people of Wujia Village to sign up for building houses.

Chen Zhen plans to recruit another 20 workers. Together with the people from Foreman Liu, there will be a total of 30 people, and the house can be built in about one and a half months.
