Chen Xingling rolled his eyes and chuckled.
"That's true! Marriage does require some impulsiveness. If you are too cautious and picky, you may end up being looked down upon by no one."
Lin Ming is almost at the age of knowing the destiny, and he has a more thorough understanding of the world.
"Nichang is a beautiful and capable girl. These are her excellent conditions, and they are also the 'capital' you just mentioned. But her conditions are too high and too high, and there will be fewer people who can match her. After all, the more outstanding people are, the fewer there are. Most of us are peddlers and ordinary people."
"Yes." Chen Xingling nodded in agreement.
Lin Ming chuckled helplessly: "There are already few people who can match me, but I still treat them with a picky attitude. The chance of being able to choose will only be smaller. Low probability plus low chance, how many opportunities can there be? People, being too persistent may be stubborn. Any emotion requires a degree. If you are too rigid, you will break. You must keep it in mind."
"Yeah." Chen Xingling nodded, and asked curiously, "Teacher, has this problem been solved?"
Lin Ming shook his head: "The man seems to still be upset, and even slandered Nichang to others, saying that she was trying to cheat him into marriage. The man's family seems to be very extreme, and they send people to discuss things almost every day, which makes Principal Li very annoyed. He is old and usually likes to be quiet, so how can he stand such torment? Look, he has even brought out his old illness."
Chen Xingling couldn't help but feel sorry for Principal Li, and whispered, "This kind of thing should be cut off immediately, and the knife should be made clear immediately, otherwise it will be very bad for the girl's reputation if it is dragged on."
Lin Ming also felt that what the teacher said made sense, and smiled bitterly: "Principal Li must also know this truth. However, the man seems unwilling to give up. I heard that the man is too obsessed with Nichang, even to the point of being a little crazy. He is lying in the hospital, and he is still thinking about Nichang all the time."
"It sounds a bit scary." Chen Xingling shrugged.
Lin Ming laughed dumbly: "Shouldn't you young people prefer this kind of style? Some girls like this kind of thing very much. It seems to make them proud, and they even think it is proof of their charm."
"I'm not like that." Chen Xingling said honestly: "I'm not that kind of pretty girl. I don't think I have much charm. It's enough for me to be liked by my lover. I love him and he loves me too. That's lucky enough."
Lin Ming turned his head and stared at her for a while, then smiled.
"He is a real person. Real people! Real people are precious. After all, we live our lives in a real way, not relying on some illusory and false face. People should not be too greedy for emotions, otherwise they may suffer backlash."
Chen Xingling understood it all at once.
It seems that Li Nishang is arrogant and conceited. She enjoys the vanity and satisfaction of being pursued by a group of suitors. She even thinks that this is a manifestation of her infinite charm.
Teacher Lin was her neighbor and knew her quite well, which was why he secretly mocked her like this.
Lin Ming is a teacher and doesn't like to gossip about other people's private affairs. When chatting, he just says a few words lightly and quickly changes the subject.
"Ma Dali is a very determined young man who loves learning and life. He is the one who moved me the most among this class. He is very close to you and hopes that you can help him secretly. When he gets through the difficulties, he will definitely excel in the future. As a person, he is definitely not an ungrateful person."
Chen Xingling smiled and nodded quickly.
"Teacher, I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will do my best."
Chen Xingling had read the original book and knew that Ma Dali would indeed be very capable and wealthy in the future. She was familiar with the plot, but the teacher judged people by their appearance and looked at them with extraordinary vision.
As expected of a teacher - he has a really good eye!
Lin Ming nodded with satisfaction and personally walked her out of the school gate. He watched her ride away on her bike before turning back to school.
Chen Xingling did not go home. As it was still early, he went to the construction site first.
From a distance, I could see my eldest brother, second brother and a few workers unloading wood from a tractor. There seemed to be some green vines piled in the corner.
Chen Xingling hurriedly got out of the car and asked them to come down for some water.
"We just drank." Chen Daxing laughed and wiped his sweat: "Ayi's wife poured several large bowls of water, and we drank until our stomachs were full."
Chen Zhongxing explained: "You said you wanted the last batch to make furniture. My brother and I picked some big and strong wood for you."
"No way?" Chen Xingling couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Is this - Chicken Wing Wood?"
Chen Daxing nodded. "It's chicken wing wood, which is very suitable for making furniture. These are old woods, at least a decade old."
"Maybe even more!" Chen Zhongxing glanced at his sister and said angrily, "How can you use ordinary wood to make furniture? It has to be at least this grade."
Chen Xingling touched his nose and explained with a low laugh: "We used so much wood inside and outside that it has seriously exceeded my budget. If the furniture uses too much wood, I'm worried it will be too expensive."
"Not expensive." Chen Zhongxing explained: "You have craftsmen here who make it themselves, and they bought the wood themselves from the deep mountains and old forests. It's much cheaper than buying it at a local specialty store!"
Chen Daxing lowered his voice and said, "Your second brother and I will pay for these. Don't worry about it."
"No, no." Chen Xingling said with a smile: "I save money wherever I can, it's not that I'm short of money."
The two brothers ignored her.
Chen Xingling explained, "I have already ordered some furniture. I just need to make a set of sofas and two desks. The antique shelf in the living room and the bookshelf in the study have been made and installed. They look pretty good."
Chen Zhongxing asked curiously, "Why haven't you painted it yet? Are you planning to paint it together with the window strings?"
"No paint." Chen Xingling explained: "The whole house is made of logs, and I only applied a layer of protective transparent paint. No other paint was applied. I like the original color of logs, and it smells good."
Perhaps influenced by the aesthetic standards of this era, all furniture, big and small, including wooden doors on the market like to be painted, and a thick layer of it.
Chen Xingling was extremely afraid of the pungent smell of paint, and was also worried that little Hu's child would not grow up well, so he refused to paint at all.
Even the protective paint on the outside was what she squeezed out from the supermarket space. It is an environmentally friendly paint that meets international standards, which is very cautious.
In addition, the windows inside and outside are very large, and the doors will not be installed for the time being to ensure ventilation inside and outside and that there will not be too much pollution from building materials.
In fact, some sandalwood or mahogany naturally has a light woody fragrance, which is very pleasant to smell.
She bought some, but they were too expensive, so she planned to make only two desks, because Gu Qi spent almost all of his time at the desk when he was not asleep.
Chen Zhongxing laughed out loud: "Okay, okay, the house is for your family to live in anyway, you can do whatever you want."
"Where's the wooden bed?" Chen Daxing looked around and asked, "Why hasn't it been built yet? The wooden boards needed for the bed are wider and thicker, and I don't think these woods are good enough."
"No, no." Chen Xingling hurriedly explained: "The wooden bed has been ordered, and it will be delivered in a few days."
Chen Daxing asked, "What kind of wood is it made of? Don't use some inferior wood. It would be better if we go to the mountains to buy some for you."
"Don't worry." Chen Xingling laughed and said, "It's a retro wooden bed made by an acquaintance. Xiaohuzi's bed is made of rattan and is a bit smaller, about one meter and two meters wide."
The construction of the small garden was quite labor intensive, especially the detailed work involved. The labor and material costs had already exceeded her original budget by more than a thousand yuan.
Fortunately, now that the renovation is almost complete, all the furniture, appliances and kitchen supplies can be moved out of the supermarket space, so she doesn't need to worry too much.
"If it's someone you know, go ahead." Chen Daxing was the eldest brother after all, and he always kept his father in mind. He reminded him again: "These are all things that we need at home, and the quality must be trustworthy."
"It's all right." Chen Xingling hastily assured: "Quality guaranteed!"
The quality of goods in large international supermarkets - no doubt about it!
