Chapter 194 Each Has Its Own Plan
When Song Zhenping heard Xiao An ask what milk was, his face suddenly turned bad.
Because when my mother was pregnant with Xiao An, she heard the news of my father's death and it caused her to have a difficult labor.
Coupled with the noise made by my aunt and second uncle, my mother cried every day.
My younger brother has never had a sip of milk since he was born, and he was raised entirely on millet porridge.
He originally wanted to lie to his brother, but looking at Xiao An's clear eyes, he could only honestly say: "You haven't drunk it!"
Xiao An licked his lips and continued to ask: "Brother, have you ever tried it? What does it taste like?"
He is now smart and has many questions, like a child growing up.
Song Zhenping didn't lie to Xiao An just now, but he couldn't lie to her now.
But when Xiao An asked him what milk tasted like, he couldn't remember and could only perfunctorily answer, "It's sweet!"
Xiao An's face fell, and he pouted and said, "Why haven't I ever drunk it?"
Song Liyun was always eloquent, but she didn't know what to say at this moment. She could only coax Xiao An: "Milk is just like sugar water. I'll make you a bowl of iced snow pear sugar water later!"
Abu looked at Zhao Tingduo. They now knew why Xiao An had not grown up at the age of eleven.
At this time, I felt a little heavy when I heard Xiao An say that he had never drunk milk.
After a moment, Zhao Tingduo nodded slightly, and Abu immediately smiled. He said loudly to Xiaoan, "Xiaoan, from now on, Brother Abu will take you to a place where you can drink milk every day."
Xiao An was surprised and said, "Really? Brother Abu lied to me again."
Abu raised his chin with a proud look on his face: "Who would lie to you? Of course you can drink as much as you want, as long as your stomach can hold it."
"You can also hang a bottle around your neck!" Zhao Tingduo also joked with a smile.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Baolinju is so lively that it seems like a festival.
At the Xue family's house in the town, a white and gray puppy was tied in the corner of the yard.
Xue Zhuang sat on the edge of the kang with a sullen face and said to Xu Yan'er and Xu's wife, "Pack your things and leave now. Don't come to Suijin Town again."
Xu Yan'er twisted the corner of her clothes. She didn't want her sister-in-law to stay at home any longer.
But after what happened today, Xiaobao's forehead started bleeding again for some reason.
Mrs. Xu also knew that she had gotten into trouble. She felt wronged and that she couldn't blame herself alone for all these things.
At that time, Xiaobao just liked dogs, but Song Liyun insisted on fighting for it, and she was betting on that.
If I had known those men were so bad, I would have beaten Xiaobao up and given the dog to them.
However, if she hadn't done this, she wouldn't have known what it felt like to be cared for by a man.
Now that Xue Zhuang wants to kick her out, it's even less likely that she will leave.
"Master Xue, I know I was wrong. From now on, I will stay at home to take care of Yan'er and make small clothes and shoes for her.
To be honest, my mother-in-law is old and her eyesight is not good, so I make clothes for the children and adults in the family.
Yan'er is pregnant, and doing needlework every day is tiring for her eyes and waist. When you come home, she still has to serve you tea and food, which is quite tiring.
When you are away from home, I can still chat with Yan'er."
Mrs. Xu spared no effort to promote herself, but now she regretted it very much. She should have been more diligent when she first arrived and not had to waste so much time and effort.
Hearing that her sister-in-law could stay at home with her, Xu Yan'er felt a little moved and looked at Xue Zhuang eagerly.
Normally it was fine when Xue Zhuang was at home, but sometimes when she was alone at home, she would feel anxious and angry when she thought of those evil people who would suddenly jump out and knock her unconscious.
Especially now that she is pregnant, Xue Zhuang can't stay at home to take care of her all the time. She can't even sleep without someone by her side.
It’s just that her sister-in-law is lazy, talkative and annoying, so she just wants her sister-in-law to go back and let her mother come over instead.
But when it comes to needlework, it is indeed her sister-in-law who does most of the work at home, which puts her in a very awkward position for a while.
Xue Zhuang turned and looked at Xu Yaner.
After he misjudged Song Liyun, he began to change his mind: women cannot be like soft dough, they should still have the ability to make decisions.
It is better to let the daughter-in-law make the decisions on her own matters.
Seeing that Xue Zhuang no longer insisted on his attitude, Xu's sister-in-law hurriedly said to Xu Yan'er, "I have already cut two small clothes from the cloth you gave me the other day.
The things that Master Xue bought are really good, soft and smooth, perfect for children with delicate skin.
If you think my needlework is good, you can let me make all the clothes for the baby. You are heavy, so you can rest more."
When Xu Yaner heard about the cloth, she remembered that she had thrown it away out of anger just after Xue Zhuang brought it back. She looked at Xue Zhuang guiltily and said to Xu's sister-in-law, "Let me see the small clothes you cut."
"Hey! Come, let me support you, don't fall!" Xu's sister-in-law diligently supported Xu Yan'er's arm, and the two went out together.
Xue Zhuang was surprised, but then he thought: If someone is too nice to him for no reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. He should hold on to the money in his home more tightly.
Zhao Tingduo stayed in Baolinju and started to follow Song Liyun every day.
Now that the old houses in the town have been demolished, how they should be rebuilt has become a hot topic.
Each piece of land requires five taels of silver as payment, and it is impossible to ask each family to pay dozens or hundreds of taels to repair the house.
So, some people want to build their own houses using adobe and wood, while others simply want to speculate on land and invest, just buying it with the intention of reselling it.
Almost every day, people sitting in the guild hall would talk and plan something.
On the third day of the market, Song Liyun, Xue Zhuang, Hu Qing, and Manager Mu, the people who actually bought the land, gathered together again to discuss building houses.
They were planning to build a house.
Seeing that more and more people came to the market, even Xue Zhuang, who only planned to buy a courtyard, wanted to buy two shops.
The money for buying the land has been paid to the county government, and the clerk has also signed a white deed to prove that it can be sold.
As long as Qili County issues the deed, we can start construction.
It's just that the weather is hot now, so they decided to hire someone to repair the house after the autumn harvest.
The current problem is: this row of houses includes shops and houses, and we still need to figure out how to renovate them.
Zhao Tingduo followed Song Liyun without saying a word.
Although he had been in and out of Hecheng Town Beifu many times, he had never experienced repairing or building a house.
Moreover, if I want to settle down and build a city in the future, I will also need this kind of experience.
Xue Zhuang and Hu Qing were both surprised at Zhao A Shi's sudden appearance beside Song Liyun.
Song Liyun explained it this way: These were the guards lent to her by the Wan family.
Zhao Tingduo still agreed and stood behind Song Liyun seriously and responsibly at any time.
Now everyone knows that two bandit leaders escaped from Tianxiang Tower, and Suijin Town is in fear. It is reasonable for Song Liyun to borrow a guard.
The town needs to be rebuilt, and Song Liyun, as the boss of the Acorn Workshop, also has to consider the development space of the workshop.
She had seen the Acorn Workshop at Hu Qing's place, and as soon as she returned to Baolinju, she took out paper and pen and started drawing.
When it came to the start of construction, everyone realized that something had gone wrong. The Acorn Workshop was now built in an ordinary yard, which made it inconvenient to use water and dry clothes.
Moreover, when the town was first established, the living area and commercial area were separated, but the industrial area was not planned separately.
Manager Mu meant to move the acorn workshop to the riverside. Since it was Song Liyun's property anyway, it would be convenient to soak acorns by the river.
Song Liyun rejected this plan, saying that the carton factory was a heavily polluting enterprise and it would be better to work away from food.
