Chapter 43 Surprise (shuhaige.net)



Upon hearing this, Madam Su immediately brought her son out, and the two of them looked around the entire courtyard.

“Son, our yard is indeed big, but if we divide it up, then we won’t be able to keep these rooms…”

"Yes, that's why I discussed it with you, Mother! Father, say something too. My carpentry skills can't go to waste. Even if I just make some tables and chairs, I can sell them. Besides, I also want to make cabinets, beds... and other furniture. Once I establish a reputation, our family's business will be booming!"

Su Shan looked at his youngest son and wholeheartedly agreed with what she said.

"Second brother, you're going to open a workshop?" Su Ruyi, who had just gotten up, perked up immediately when she heard their discussion.

“Yes, your second brother is planning to build a workshop here!” Su Chenshi said with a smile.

"Really? That's great! Second brother, you're amazing!" Su Ruyi said excitedly.

"Hehe, I still need my parents' support!" Su Jingxing said with a smile.

"By the way, Second Brother, what kind of furniture are you planning to make?" Su Ruyi asked curiously.

"Well, let's start with simple tables and chairs, and then gradually expand the scale to make more complex furniture, such as wardrobes, dressing tables, and so on," Su Jingxing said enthusiastically.

"Wow, that sounds amazing! Second brother, when I get married, will you give me a set too?" Su Ruyi said expectantly.

"Don't worry, little sister, your brother will take care of everything!" Su Jingxing smiled confidently.

"My second brother is the best. Unlike my eldest brother, who only knows how to protect that bitch of unknown origin and doesn't care about us at all!"

Just as they were talking, Zhao Lingling came out of the room.

"Father, Mother, since my husband wants to open a workshop, our location is just right, and the workshop can't be too small. If no one lives in the neighboring courtyard, we can buy it too. It would be best to expand our house as well, as it's really too small. It's not even as big as my room at my parents' house!"

“Yes, yes, Lingling is right!” Madam Su Chen looked at Su Shan.

Buying the property next door would cost a lot of money, but they weren't willing to spend that money for nothing.

They all agreed verbally, but secretly harbored many ulterior motives.

Zhang Lingling convinced them to agree, and then began to observe the layout of the entire house.

"Dad, Mom, is no one living in the neighboring yard? If no one lives there, let's buy it, then knock down a small door here, and expand our room a bit..."

"Second sister-in-law, expanding is easy, isn't it? Look, we can just connect eldest brother's room with yours, right?" Su Ruyi said.

"Yes, how come I didn't think of that? If we connect them, we'll not only have rooms, but also a small living room."

"If my parents come to visit someday, they'll be happy to see how big my room is..."

“How can that be? If we combine our room with my brother’s, where will he stay?” Su Jingxing shook his head.

"Second brother, what are you worried about? Eldest brother always talks about how he earns money to support the family, so he must have a way. We don't need to worry about it!"

“Yes, yes, yes!” Madam Su immediately put on a smile: “That’s right, buying the neighboring courtyard and rebuilding it would cost a lot of money…”

Zhang Lingling glanced at Su Jingxing, then went inside without saying a word.

Su Jingxing knew perfectly well what Zhang Lingling's glance meant. He immediately frowned, feeling a little nervous, and cautiously looked at his mother.

"Mom, Linlin is an only child. In the future, all of her family's assets will be mine. Are you still worried about not having enough money?"

Besides, my father-in-law might be able to do it. I've learned a lot from following him these past two years.

However, my father-in-law recently wanted to expand his workshop, so he spent a lot of money, and I didn't bring back much money.

"Mom, please cover the cost for me first. After Father-in-law passes away, everything that belongs to him will be mine, and everything that belongs to me will be yours."

"That's right, Mother, just listen to your second brother!"

Hearing these words, Madam Su was overjoyed!

"Alright, alright, but don't forget your mother then!"

"Of course! I won't forget!"

"What do you say, old man?"

“If our son wants to do it, then let him do it!” Su Shan agreed.

After leaving home, Luo Yunhe went straight up the mountain, found a small tree he liked, and cut it down.

The sapling was much thicker than her arm, just the right size to serve as a support.

She cut down three trees according to this proportion, then trimmed all the branches, leaving about two meters long.

She cut off the rest and pulled them all back.

She threw the branches on the edge of the ground and put the three trees in the hole she had dug.

I feel that these trees are just right, and I am very satisfied.

However, her four acres of land needed a large number of these trees, which put her in a bit of a predicament.

Just as she was struggling with her decision, a group of teenagers dressed in matching outfits followed Su Jingxuan towards them from a distance.

"We're going to work in the field today. Listen to me, whoever does the most work today will get the most kills when I go hunting in the mountains tomorrow, and I'll treat you all to a big meal then!"

"Great! Master Su, you have no idea how much my head aches from reading every day. Today I finally have a chance to go out and have some fun!"

This large group of people marched westward toward the wasteland.

The villagers naturally saw it too, and they all peeked around curiously.

They had just reached the edge of the field when they saw Luo Yunhe standing in the ground staring at the tree, seemingly lost in thought.

"daughter in law!"

"Hmm?" She turned her head and saw Su Jingxuan standing at the edge of the ground, with the students from the academy beside him.

"Husband, aren't you giving lessons today? What are you doing here?"

"I'm giving a field lesson today. Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes, of course!" Luo Yunhe looked at them with surprise and delight.

He quickly placed the three trees he had prepared in front of them.

"I need a lot of these trees. You can see clearly that they are this thick and this big, and they must be this tall!"

The students stared at the trees she brought over and nodded one by one.

"That's easy, there are plenty of them on the mountain!"

"Yes, but we don't have the tools!"

"I'll go to the village to borrow some, wait for me!" Luo Yunhe was naturally happy to have someone help her cut down such trees, so without saying a word, she dropped the trees and headed towards the village.
