Chapter 26 Furniture



Xu Lei frowned. What's wrong with this woman?

Zhang Min felt ashamed and angry when she saw Xu Lei's puzzled look.

"Third brother, I'm Zhang Min, Meili and I are..." Zhang Min had to explain.

But before Zhang Min could finish, Xu Lei immediately stopped her from saying the next sentence, "I'm sorry, I don't know you, so I can't accept you calling me Third Brother."

Xu Lei seemed to remember something.

This woman is Zhang Min, a female educated youth who has a very good relationship with Xiaomei.

It seems that the female educated youth had a conflict with Yuzhu yesterday just to vent her anger.

What's wrong with this woman? He doesn't even know him, but she comes up and calls him "Third Brother".

To put it bluntly, this name is only appropriate for people you are very familiar with or have a good relationship with.

"Also... I don't care what your relationship with my sister is, or what you talked about. It has nothing to do with me. I don't know anything about it. Please be careful with what you say next time. I'm married."

After saying that, Xu Lei left without looking back.

When it comes to love matters, Xu Lei has always been open and honest, never dragging his feet.

People don’t need so many emotional entanglements in their lives. It is a waste to put your energy on unnecessary people.

Wouldn't it be better to use that time to do something more meaningful?

In Xu Lei's opinion, it is not that having many relationships is good, but one true love is better than thousands.

Now he already has Jiang Yuzhu.

He only needs to manage his existing relationships and cherish the people in front of him. Other unimportant people are not within his scope of concern.

Zhang Min looked at Xu Lei's resolute back and stomped her feet in anger.

If... if Jiang Yuzhu hadn't sabotaged her, would she be the one marrying Xu Lei now?

Looking at the calluses and small cracks on my hands, they are still dry even though it is not winter yet.

It is not difficult to imagine how miserable it would be in winter.

Zhang Min was unwilling to accept this. Was she going to live like this in the countryside for the rest of her life?

Xu Lei thought that he had to tell his wife when he got home not to associate with that group of educated youth in the future. His wife was simple and innocent, so she wouldn't be fooled.

When I got home, everyone was up.

"The third brother went up the mountain to chop firewood, why didn't he call us to join him." The second brother saw the third brother coming back with two bundles of firewood on his back, and hurried to get them down.

"It's okay. I got up early today. My eldest brother, second brother and fourth brother had to take care of me when I was not at home." Xu Lei went to the kitchen, picked up the water scoop and washed his hands.

"It's time to eat, why don't you call your wife?" The old lady couldn't help but frown when she saw the look on her third son's face.

It was obvious that I was unhappy.

"Mom, call her tonight. By the way, I want to take advantage of the holidays and time to bring Yuzhu back to visit my parents."

"We're already married, but we still don't know the door to our father-in-law's house."

Xu Lei thought that it would take some time before he could return to the army, so he took this opportunity to quickly deal with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

Old Master Xu sat on a rock, smoking his pipe, and nodded, "It's time to go take a look."

The old lady hesitated to speak and finally said nothing.

"I'll prepare today and leave tomorrow." Xu Lei just said this to his parents.

You have to go whether you agree or not.

Besides, the old couple had no reason to refuse.

"Third brother, we've brought it to you." There was a noise outside the yard.

It was Carpenter Wang’s two sons who drove a donkey cart and brought over the things Xu Lei bought.

"Dazhu, Erzhu, why are you two here? Come in and sit down." When Mrs. Xu saw the two sons of Carpenter Wang, she warmly invited them into the house.

"Auntie, we won't go in. We'll just unload the things for Third Brother and leave. We still have to go back to eat."

“This…” The old lady was dumbfounded when she saw so many pieces of furniture in the car. When were these bought?

"Thank you for making the special trip. Just put it in the yard for me." Xu Lei moved a table down.

The eldest brother, the second brother and the fourth brother also hurried to help take the things out of the car.

Needless to say, these were all bought by my third brother.

After the unloading was completed, everyone gathered around the furniture to look at it.

Xu Lei took out the cigarettes from his pocket and handed two to Dazhu and Erzhu respectively.

"Third brother, you don't have to be so polite." The two of them were too embarrassed to take it.

They spent money to buy so much furniture, isn't it your duty to give it to them? How can you have the nerve to take their cigarettes?

This Daqianmen is 35 cents a box, which means each cigarette costs two cents.

"Third brother, we can just take one at a time."

Each of them took one, but couldn't bear to smoke it. They sniffed it under their noses and put it on their ears with a smile.

"Then let's go."

Seeing the two Wang brothers leave, everyone gathered around.

"Tsk tsk, third brother, you are really good. You bought so much. Will the house be able to fit them all?" The eldest brother was very envious when he saw so many new furniture.

This is much better than the furniture they had back then and the style is newer.

"Why can't it fit? My room is so empty that there's only space left." Xu Lei's room is about the same size as the eldest and second sons' rooms.

But the eldest and second sons were married at the time, and they got married one after the other, so they made the furniture together.

It was cheap then too.

The room has everything that should be there, such as a kang cabinet, a wardrobe, a large box, a table and chairs.

Xu Lei's room was empty because he and the fourth brother had not yet married, so there was no furniture, only a kang cabinet.

They are all rough men, just deal with them.

Besides, Xu Lei is not at home because he is serving in the army, so there is no need to make so much furniture.

Let’s talk about it when the third and fourth sons get married.

But Xu Lei got married so suddenly that he didn't have time to make furniture.
