Chapter 57

"You prepare the bricks and leave another man for us. We will come back tomorrow morning. If there are no accidents, we can build them in one day." Xu Dawen said to the housekeepers of the two families.

Because he was neatly dressed, courteous, and spoke without arrogance or impetuosity, the two housekeepers felt very secure. This is a professional craftsman!

Unable to keep them, the two butlers had no choice but to send them out and tell them to come early tomorrow morning.

Xu Dachong and the two cupped their hands together, then led Wang Dayou to turn around and leave.

Walking out of Xicheng, where rich businessmen gather, Wang Dayou, who had been holding back for a day, couldn't control his guilty conscience anymore, and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Xu, is a piece of linen really okay? We're just making a kang, isn't that, isn't it good?"

He is also a little clever at ordinary times, so when he saw the Xu family's Pan Kang, he thought about learning it. What he thought about was to learn more skills in the future and earn more money.

But now, this is not a little bit more money!
Seeing that he was still not enlightened, Xu Da stopped abruptly, and asked in a deep voice:
"Aren't our two families the only ones who know how to cook a kang in the whole Hejian? Isn't this unique skill worth the price?"

"Besides, we have to get up before dawn tomorrow to work for them. We don't even have to pay for food, and we still bend over to work all day. Aren't we tired?"

"What's wrong with taking some cloth from him? If it wasn't for me now."

Realizing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he suddenly stopped, "Forget it, you just need to know, I don't like your big brother, and I won't even do it if they give me two hundred pieces of cloth!"

Xu Da took a deep breath, and cast a glance at Wang Dayi, "We're all human, so why think of yourself as so worthless?"

Xu Datou left without looking back. He was obviously dressed in coarse cloth, but it was as elegant and elegant as silk yarn with wide sleeves.

Wang Dayou stood silently in the dark alley, watching him striding towards the light from the darkness, unable to recover for a long time.

With a sound of "squeak", the door of the house was gently opened and then closed again. Immortal Xu Daxian, who was still elegant and unrestrained just now, frowned tightly, with a look of bitterness and hatred on his face.

The room with dim yellow lights was opened from the inside, Xu Da raised his eyes and saw the expressionless Xu Dalang.

Xu Shi didn't expect to see him with such an expression, the young man tilted his head, and looked him up and down with both eyes.

This gaze, which seemed to be like an X-ray, forced Xu Da to quickly pass him and rush into the room.

Warm air blows in. In the house, Wang and Xu Yue, mother and daughter, are learning how to make clothes with Xu Erniang with needles and threads. By the way, they are sewing thick quilts for sleeping in winter. Everything is so warm and peaceful.

It's just that the three of them didn't raise their heads, and didn't even glance at him when he entered the door, as if he was air.

Xu Da suddenly felt a breath of depression in his throat, neither spit nor swallowed, so he sat down on the edge of the kang with a "bang", looking for a sense of existence.

The effect was there, the mother and daughter immediately raised their heads and looked at him.

As if she had just discovered his bitterness and hatred, Xu Yue asked with concern:

"What's wrong with Dad? Didn't make any money? That's okay, we can take our time."

The girl comforted him very earnestly, but Xu Da felt even more frustrated.

It was the first time Xu Yue saw such a cheap father, and finally got serious, put down the needle and thread in his hand, and looked at Auntie.

Something is wrong with Dad!

Wang Shi had already noticed, but she was not good at comforting people, so she could only look at Xu Da and wait for him to speak.

After several seconds of silence in the room, Xu Da said disappointedly: "I scolded Wang Dayou."

Xu Yue and her family members nodded in understanding, it turned out that they were guilty.

Xu Da continued: "I have double-standards."

It was Xu Yue who taught him this word. Xu Yue couldn't remember why she taught Dad to say this word at that time. Maybe it was because she saw too many people's selfishness on the way to escape, so she felt so emotional.

The mother and son signaled Xu Da to continue.

Xu Da sighed, and told about how he and Wang Dayou went out to find business today, and then talked about the charging of the kang.

There was no problem with everything, until when he told Wang Dayou, "We are all human, why should we think of ourselves as worthless", Xu Yue understood instantly.

She didn't know the specific identity of her father before, but she knew that he was a cultivator, and he should be a high-ranking second generation of immortals.

If you change to a modern identity, you should be the rich second generation. If you change to Daqing, you should also be a noble son, that is, the exploiting class that A Niang often talks about.

As a qualified exploiter, he actually told Wang Dayou, who was in the exploited class, to ask him to increase his labor costs.

This is subtle.

When he was an exploiter, Xu Da looked down on the people at the bottom, thinking that they were worthless at all, and it was their good fortune that ordinary people could serve the cultivators.

But now, he is no longer a great immortal.

He was just a common man, a poor man who almost starved to death, and still worked hard to earn money to support his family.

That's why he was so angry when he saw that Wang Dayou had doubts about his own value.

Because now, he is just a "mortal without any value".

After sorting out Father's complicated psychological feelings at this moment, Xu Yue crawled over and patted Father's shoulder lightly,

"Father, not everyone can have such an opportunity to empathize, you should cherish it."

Xu Da turned his head to look at the little girl in front of him, his eyes were cold, "Are you sure this is to comfort me?"

Xu Yue showed a harmless smile and nodded heavily.

Mrs. Wang hugged her little daughter to her side, with a strong sense of protecting the cub, and Xu Dayou's cold eyes instantly became extremely moved.

"It's nice to have a brother, remember to apologize tomorrow." Wang urged.

Looking at Xu Da's two thin single clothes, she asked Xu Yue to take out a string of jade bracelets and handed them over.

Xu Da was a little confused, is this a consolation prize?

Wang urged: "It's getting colder and colder. If you want to run outside, you can't just wear these two single clothes. Take this bracelet and change into a fur coat. Dress warmly and protect your body."

Hearing this, Xu Da's eyes were full of disbelief, "Wang, you, you... why are you being so nice to me all of a sudden!"
Seeing Xu Da's shocked expression, Wang Shi suddenly felt a little funny, couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, and laughed.

She didn't speak, just looked at him with her two black eyes, her brows and eyes were crooked when she smiled, as if she contained infinite tenderness.

The dim light softened the fierceness of her body. She was dressed in Jingchai and held a needle and thread in her hand. She really looked like a little wife who cared about her husband.

This Wang family is actually not ugly.Xu Da secretly thought.

He opened his mouth, wanted to say something, but stopped abruptly, and lost his voice.The tips of her ears were reddish, she looked down at the jade string in her hand, and then looked up at Mrs. Wang. There was only warmth like candlelight flowing in her heart.

Xu Yue looked at A Niang's sober eyes, and silently felt sorry for her careless father for three seconds.

A Niang, this is clearly just the rational allocation and reuse of resources.
