"I haven't decided yet. It depends on my taste. It doesn't have to be too good, just suitable. If Brother Zhang knows anyone, he can recommend one. The price will be based on the market price. We won't take advantage, but we can't overcharge our acquaintances either." Tian Chengcheng said with a smile.
She felt that a family-oriented man like Zhang Youcai must have good character.
If it were the selfish type, he would have long been clamoring to get married and live alone, and would not even care about how his mother and younger siblings lived.
Zhang Youcai was very happy when he heard this.
"My family has an unused house. Back then, the brigade took care of us and specially allocated a residential plot along the street. However, we didn't have money, so we gradually fenced it off over the years and bought some bricks and cement. When there was no work, I took my brothers and sisters to build it ourselves. We just built a few houses along the street, and the cement has just dried. We are preparing to rent them out. Why don't you go and take a look?"
Tian Chengcheng didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Whenever she needed something, she didn't have to go out to look for it, it would just come to her.
It's really a koi carp!
"Great, then find a time tomorrow afternoon and take us over to check out the location. If it's suitable, we can rent your place first."
Tian Chengcheng said happily.
Zhang Youcai was also very happy. He went in and greeted Wang Baoli. "Uncle Wang."
When Wang Baoli heard that Tian Chengcheng wanted to rent his house, he said, "The location is pretty good, but is the house you built yourself sturdy? Don't hurt anyone."
"Don't worry, Uncle Wang. When I built the house, I thought, since it's a rare opportunity to renovate it, I have to build it solid. It would be best if I could live in it for a hundred years without it collapsing.
I didn't skimp on materials. A lot of their walls are made of sand mixed with white lime. If you knock on them, the sand will fall off and you can't even knock a nail through. My house uses cement sand, so that's definitely not the case."
Zhang Youcai paused.
Although Tian Chengcheng didn't understand what he was talking about sand, she felt that since he said so, it must be a good thing.
Wang Baoli smiled and said, "That's fine. You're just like your father, so down-to-earth. It's a pity that your father passed away so early. You and your son must have worked hard over the years."
"It's not hard, everything is fine. I was always taken care of by the brigade before, and now I'm separated. I can also earn money to support my family. As long as I am willing to work hard, life is better now than before."
"That's true. Life is better than mine."
Wang Baoli smiled and handed him a bag. "These are the leftover scraps from recently. They're useless. Take them back to your mother and see if you can make them into a shoe upper or something."
Zhang Youcai did not refuse, but accepted it after thanking him.
There are many children in the family, and the clothes and shoes for the brothers and sisters were all subsidized by their mother with these small purchases. Some of them are quite large. He knows that Wang Baoli is kind-hearted and takes special care of them, and he remembers it all.
Every year, fresh sweet potatoes, peanuts and vegetables from the fields are sent to Wang Baoli.
"Wait." Tian Chengcheng said, "We still have some scraps of cloth left in the warehouse. They're useless. You can take them back."
"You also sell cloth?" Zhang Youcai was surprised.
"Of course, the cheap fabrics sold here are what my uncle and I made. We've already made back our investment and even made a small profit. The rest is just piling up."
Tian Chengcheng said this and ran to the warehouse in the backyard, tore off a few pieces of cloth and messed them up, thought for a while, stomped on them a few times on the ground, and stuffed them into the bag.
Wang Xiaohong happened to see it and was shocked.
"Fubao, what are you doing?"
This kid, even if there is so much fabric, he shouldn’t waste it like this. Is he even stepping on the fabric for fun?
Tian Chengcheng was a little embarrassed and whispered something in her ear.
Wang Xiaohong said with relief: "Fubao is such a kind and good child, go ahead."
Tian Chengcheng carried the bag and skipped to the front.
Wang Nuo saw it and asked, "Mom, what's going on? Why is Fubao so happy?"
"She's always very happy, and it's good to be happy!" Wang Xiaohong smiled and urged Wang Nuo to work. She couldn't help but tell him about Tian Chengcheng's experience with the cloth. "That child is so kind. She will definitely be rewarded in the future."
Wang Nuo's mouth twitched after hearing this. "Mom, do you think Fubao is okay no matter what she does? She's a spendthrift, giving away good things for no reason. If I did that, wouldn't you skin me alive?"
"Stop talking nonsense all day long! If you had Fubao's ability, and wanted to give gifts to others and do good deeds, Mom wouldn't stop you. The key is that you don't have any, and you still have to let Fubao worry about you."
Although Wang Xiaohong said this, there was a smile on her face.
Wang Nuo finally understood.
In my mother's heart, I can never compare to Fubao! But who made Fubao so cute? So what if I can't compare to him?
Tian Chengcheng stuffed the bag into Zhang Youcai's hand and said, "Go back. Just come back around three o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
Zhang Youcai nodded, "Okay, thank you!"
Tian Chengcheng was seeing someone off when she saw Liu Jia. "Brother Zhang, wait a minute, could you please take my aunt back home? I'm alone this time, and the fare is fifty cents."
After Tian Chengcheng finished speaking, she directly stuffed fifty cents into Zhang Youcai's pocket.
Liu Jia couldn't resist her, so she had to go along with her, but in her heart she was thinking about buying some silver jewelry and making a bracelet out of it to give to her.
Zhang Youcai left, and Wang Baoli looked at Tian Chengcheng with a smile.
"What have you done again, kid?"
"Grandpa Wang, that's a good thing!"
Tian Chengcheng showed her nice little white teeth and said with a smile, then took out a bag containing dozens of grilled skewers.
That's right, she packed a separate portion when she went.
"Grandpa Wang, Brother Huzi, Big Sister, Second Sister, Auntie, come and try the skewers, they're delicious!"
Fu Xinhan, Wang Hui and Runyu were the most shocked by this operation.
When did she hide all these skewers? Where did she hide them?
Fu Xinhan walked over and smelled the skewers. The smell was very strong, but he was sure he didn't smell it on the way.
His brows were furrowed.
As soon as Tian Chengcheng saw the look in his eyes, she knew he was up to something, so she spoke first, "I was afraid the smell would disappear and it would get cold, so I stuffed it in my aunt's backpack. She didn't even notice."
"Naughty." Hu Zi couldn't help but nod Tian Chengcheng's head while eating the skewers. "You call this a barbecue skewer? This is so delicious!"
"If you like it, eat as much as you can, but don't eat it too fast. There are brittle bones in it. Chew it up before swallowing!"
Tian Chengcheng was afraid that they were eating too fast and something like what happened to Yingying would happen again, so she reminded them to eat slower.
At this time, Liu Bin and Wan Qian came and hugged Tian Chengcheng excitedly.
Wan Qian was especially excited, wiping away tears, "Fubao, today is really thanks to you, otherwise Yingying would be dead!"
Tian Chengcheng already knew the outcome and said, "Auntie Wan, I'm glad Yingying is okay. Yingying is lucky. She always manages to turn misfortune into good fortune."
"It's not that she turned misfortune into fortune, it's that she met a noble person like you." Wan Qian couldn't stop crying.
I feel sorry for the child and also scared.
The doctor said that in that situation, if the patient couldn't vomit out the contents in time, there would be almost no chance of survival if he was sent to the hospital.
