Just as this thought came to mind, Su Yan asked with a smile: "Yueqing, are you going to split up before or after building the house?"
Ke Xin looked at her sister-in-law in surprise, raised an eyebrow and asked, "Dividing the family?"
"Yes, this matter was decided a few days ago." Su Yan said, then regretted it for a moment and said, "Look at me, I saw you just having fun and forgot to mention this matter."
Ke Xin had a smile on her face, but her heart was gradually turning cold. She said, "Sister-in-law, I'm a very trusting person. Tell me what's going on?"
"After they returned home, Hao Yueqing proposed to split the family. Uncle and Auntie both agreed, but the time hasn't been set yet." Su Yan looked at Hao Yueqing and asked with a smile, "When the time comes, will Auntie and Uncle follow you or Jiang Cai?"
Hao Yueqing smiled awkwardly and hushed Jiang Kexin. She said, "My brother and I want our parents to live with us, but they can't let go of Jiang Cai. So we've decided to stay with Jiang Cai. After Jiang Cai gets married, our parents will live on their own. Our three families will give us some money and food every month as a filial gift."
After hearing this, Ke Xin lowered her eyes and said nothing. She could only hear her sister-in-law and Hao Yueqing chatting. Fei Yang saw this and stepped forward, put his arm around Ke Xin's shoulders, and said, "My dear, the monkey show has started over there. Let's go and take a look."
After saying that, he grabbed Ke Xin and left without even glancing at the people around him. On the contrary, when he passed by Hao Yueqing, he turned his head away in disgust, pretending not to see her.
Seeing this, Su Yan smiled at Hao Yueqing and said, "My brother-in-law is really too protective of his own shortcomings. I just wanted to say a few words to Ke Xin, but he called her away before we even started chatting. He really is holding her in his hands for fear of dropping her."
How could Hao Yueqing not know that she had found a way out for herself? She couldn't hold it in any position and went down the ramp: "That's right, not only does my brother-in-law dote on me, but even my mother-in-law dotes on me too. I've seen that world."
When Jiang Xin and Su Yan got married, she came with her father and saw how Han Ruyue doted on Jiang Kexin.
Su Yan didn't say anything, but followed Jiang Xin to the front to look for Ke Xin. The two of them finally got together to talk, but they were interrupted by someone.
At that time, Liu Feiyang protected Ke Xin and stood in front of the first row, watching the monkey obediently perform various actions, which aroused constant cheers from the surrounding audience.
In her previous life, it was common in circuses, so Ke Xin didn’t find it anything new. However, the man next to her seemed to be enjoying the show, so she patiently joined him in the craziness.
The moon rose above the treetops, and the number of people at the lantern festival gradually decreased. Ke Xin and Liu Feiyang then went home.
I didn't see my eldest brother and his wife from beginning to end. I guess my eldest brother took his wife to play somewhere else.
She was not in a good mood to go home. Liu Feiyang teased herself for a while, and then she felt a little better: "Okay, stop jumping up and down like a monkey. Let's go home. We have to get up early tomorrow morning!"
"If you listen to my wife, you will never make mistakes." Liu Feiyang stood at attention, which made Ke Xin laugh.
The wind was dark and the moon was high, and a breeze blew by, bringing a hint of chill.
The next day.
Before daybreak, Ke Xin packed some fruits from the space and placed them at the back of the convoy. This time she would be gone for several months, so she had to bring a lot of things with her, but most of them were food. She had relatively few clothes and daily necessities. In her mother-in-law's words, she could just buy some when she passed by her own store, so there was no need to bring so many things.
Han Ruyue grabbed Kexin's hand and stood in front of the carriage, saying reluctantly, "When mother is away, you have to take good care of yourself. If Feiyang bullies you, don't feel bad. Just deal with him. If you can't beat him, wait for mother to come back and take care of it for you."
Ke Xin's eyes welled up with tears. "Yes, I will, Mom. You and Dad should take good care of yourselves. I've written the uses of the medicine on the bottles. Please keep an eye on them when you use them."
"Also, you must keep the water Feiyang gave you. It will be useful at a critical moment."
"Don't worry, Mom knows everything."
As soon as Han Ruyue finished speaking, Liu Xu followed Feiyang and came over. He looked at Jiang Kexin and said, "I have found the people for you. They are on the way here. I will leave the matters here to you."
Even now, her father-in-law was still thinking about her, and Ke Xin nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely take care of this."
Liu Xu raised the corners of his lips, believing Ke Xin's words: "Dad believes you."
After saying that, he helped Han Ruyue onto the carriage, waved to the two of them, and then the convoy gradually disappeared from their sight.
Looking at the carriage going away, Jiang Kexin felt that the burden on her shoulders was getting heavier.
After breakfast, several craftsmen came to the door one after another. Today was the day to give them the blueprints. Although there was still half a month before the house was built, it would take time to see the blueprints in advance, know how many people to arrange, and purchase materials.
Moreover, the place where the house is to be built needs to be measured to see whether the leveling is sufficient. Even though such a long time is reserved, it still takes a lot of time to complete the work.
Liu Mansion, front hall.
All six masters were present, and Jasmine distributed them to each craftsman according to the standard surnames on the drawings.
"First, you can see if such a house can be built. Then, I can calculate the cost of building the house and the workshop so that I can give you a deposit."
After all these years of building houses, to be honest, this time they met a person who was easy to talk to and straightforward. Several craftsmen looked carefully at the drawings in their hands.
The blueprint is so clear that even the distance of the roads is marked out. Not to mention the height and width of the house, the number of windows, and the specifications, even the toilets are drawn in a realistic manner.
Master Wen had seen many blueprints, but this was the only one with such clear markings. He said, "Mrs. Liu gave me such an exquisite blueprint, I have no problem with it at all."
"It's a house, but it has five courtyards. The construction period may be longer, especially since the road is paved with bluestone bricks, which requires more effort and is not cheap. The only thing that is easier is to leave a vegetable garden behind the house."
Ke Xin knew that he was talking about her mother's house, which she designed based on her mother's description and adding some servants' rooms.
She gave Master Wen a clear statement: "A long construction period is fine, what I want is quality."
Master Wen was silent for a moment. "Then I'll calculate how much silver it would cost to build a house like this. However, my calculation will be slightly off, so it won't be the final figure."
"I see."
Master Wen picked up the blueprint and squatted in the corner of the yard, calculating with gestures.
