Chapter 119 But He Likes It

Everyone watched mule carts passing by, feeling as if they had knocked over a bottle of five flavors.

"Okay, don't look at it, you should do more work if you have the time."

"Fifth brother, should we grow so many cabbages and radishes?"

"Would you like to sit there and count, how many months and days in a winter, what can you eat in your family?"

Fifth Master Meng repeated what the second elder brother said to the big guys: "If you die in the cold, even if you sit on the top of a hot kang and eat cabbage, it is better than starving to death with a cold pot and a cold stove."

Everyone heard this, so they hurriedly stretched out their hands and continued to work.This time I worked harder than before, and I was really afraid that I would be frozen and starved to death in winter.

The hunger on the road of exile left an indelible shadow on the hearts of these people.

Meng Wuye: This is a good thing.

Meng Qingping was flattered to see the six craftsmen sent by Qianhusuo in one go.

It was Qi Yuanshan who invited him to the side and told the truth to Meng Qingping a little embarrassedly.

"This year the higher-ups cried poorly, and the money allocated was half less than in previous years. With this amount of money, there are not many places that can be repaired. It is strange to say that this year, there are fewer people building houses. These craftsmen have nothing to do. You can live in a thousand households and eat free food every day."

Thinking of the bitter face of the head of a thousand households, and hearing that the house built by the Meng family was covered with earthworms, it was as if seeing a savior, and stuffed these once-hot craftsmen over.

"It's also a beautiful name, it's easy to work if there are many people, but in fact, it's just using us as wrongdoers."

"I think what the head of the thousand households said is reasonable. More people make it easier to work. As long as we can guarantee the quality and finish the work as soon as possible, a few more craftsmen will do."

The six craftsmen were all listening, fearing that they would be sent back by the master at this time.

Being sent back by the master's family is not only bad-looking, but also the thousand households will stop sending them food and wages for at least one month.

They are all craftsmen with their names on the register, and their wages are not much. After this, it will become a problem for the whole family to eat and drink, and the winter will be even more difficult.

At this moment, after hearing what the master said, knowing that they would not be returned, the six craftsmen looked much better.So I took the initiative to discuss with Meng Qingping, how much material to use is more cost-effective, so as not to waste materials.

Then several craftsmen did it themselves, took out the things they brought, and built a simple shed as a residence.

Looking at the yellow cloth they used to build the shed, Fu Xinci's big eyes widened. Could this be the legendary tarpaulin?
With this guess, Fu Xinci leaned towards her grandfather like a little fox, pointed to the oilcloth that the craftsmen took out, and expressed her guess.

"Ci'er said that thing, can winter...?" Meng Qingping spoke a lot faster excitedly.

"Grandfather, I'm not sure, that's why I want you to go out and buy some of that material. We'll know after trying."

"Okay, grandfather will tell them now." Meng Qingping understood his granddaughter's plan, and his blood boiled with enthusiasm.If their family can really grow vegetables in the winter, it will be a good thing for their family.

Fu Xinci stayed where she was, waiting for her grandfather to talk to the craftsmen, when she saw a petite figure walking towards them stepping on the big bluestone on the small river.

If he didn't know who she was, and saw her disgusted eyes, he would have thought she was Jiao'e who was raised in a deep boudoir.

He Xiaoni didn't leave the yard for several days, she was ashamed.

She felt that the beautiful image of Miss Jiao had completely collapsed that night, and she couldn't accept this fact, so she huddled in the yard for the past few days.

If it wasn't for the fact that her parents told her about the seriousness of the matter when she got up this morning, she still didn't plan to come out.

After breakfast, she changed into her favorite dress, and her mother urged her to come out.

But when she thought about her uncle's harsh words to their family that night, she really didn't want to go out.

Their family has relied on their uncle for the past two or three years, and their life in this land is very nourishing.

Unexpectedly, after that Qi He came, his uncle's attitude towards their family would change. She couldn't accept this difference of falling from the sky to the ground.

She sat there, lowering her head and thinking about her thoughts, and she didn't move her place for a long time.

Later, it was her younger brother He Xiaobao who couldn't stand it anymore and ran over to drag her out of the gate.

The afternoon sun was very dazzling, and it was also very hot at this hour. He Xiaoni felt her body was dripping with sweat just after walking a few steps.Looking down at his favorite pair of embroidered shoes, it was also covered with dust.

"It's so annoying." He Xiaoni stomped her feet, and another cloud of dust flew up.

She really wanted to turn around and go back, but she saw her mother standing at the gate of the yard, giving her winks all the time.

Recalling what her mother said to her, if they still want to live like before, she must marry Qi He.

Thinking of Qi He's attitude towards her, He Xiaoni also felt apprehensive.

If she knew that their family had to rely on their uncle to live a good life, she and her younger brother would not have Qi He like that.

Alas, money is hard to buy, I knew it earlier.

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became, and then she secretly blamed Qi He.What are you doing here? It's good to stay in Qijia Village honestly. Why do you have to come here to make trouble for their family.

He Xiaoni came here unwillingly, Qi He also saw it, without saying a word, grabbed Fu Xinci's arm and ran to his father's bay red horse.

Seeing his plan, Fu Xinci almost went crazy with joy, it couldn't be what she thought.

Sure enough, it was exactly what she thought.Qi He dragged Fu Xinci to the side of his father's war horse, helped Sister Fu onto the horse first, then he untied the horse's reins, and Fu Xinci easily dragged him onto the horse's back.

"Father, I'll take Sister Fu for a walk." After Qi He finished speaking, he wanted to imitate his father, and his legs were ready to clamp the horse's belly.

It's just that with his short legs, it's not so convenient to clamp the horse's stomach.

How can this be done?
Fu Xinci climbed onto the horse's back, how could she give up easily, she secretly activated the wood-type supernatural power, lightly tapped the horse's belly, and the tall maroon horse immediately walked out slowly.

"Ci'er?" Fang Shi and Fu Yuke were terrified, and they were about to chase after Meng Qingping, but Meng Qingping stopped them.

"The horse is not running fast, don't worry."

"Father, that's a tall horse. Our Ci'er has never even ridden a donkey." Fang was really scared.

Qi Yuanshan was also worried, just as he was about to ask his son to come back, he saw He Xiaoni walking over crookedly.

Now he finally knew why his son ran away with a kick.

It doesn't count if you run by yourself, but you also took the little girl away.

But he likes it.

To be honest, I didn't think it was a big deal before, but he didn't like to listen to what He Song said recently.
