Chapter 48 We Are Family
When she got home and saw that the house was in full swing, Li Wanqing temporarily put aside her dissatisfaction and concentrated on helping Lin Shuirou.

In the evening, a family of four huddled in a temporary hut and discussed whether to make furniture in the town or in Fucheng.

Now the foundation of the new house has been laid, and all the materials needed to build the house have been purchased. It will be built very quickly.

Liantang Town is located at the junction of Ning'an County and Guizhou Prefecture, more than 50 miles away from Ning'an County, and only [-] miles away from Guizhou Prefecture.The things in Guizhou Prefecture are more complete than those in Ning'an County, so many people in the village choose to go to Guizhou Prefecture.

"The furniture in the Fucheng must be more expensive than the ones in the town. We only have 300 taels of silver in hand, which may not be enough." Lin Shuirou went to Guizhou Fucheng once before she got married. To buy furniture for marriage, she still knows some furniture prices in Guizhou Mansion.

Knowing that the family's savings are limited, building a house to buy materials, plus wages, all of which add up to seven taels, that is to say, they can only use 200 taels.

"Father, why don't you go to the city to see and understand?" Anyway, the styles in the city are always better than those in the town.

"Well, what Qing'er said is right. Let's go and have a look first, and don't buy it. After comparison, we can make a decision on which one to order." Li Rulin also thinks so. Building a house is a big deal, and life may only be Then once, of course he wanted to do his best.

Seeing that the father and daughter had already made a decision, Lin Shuirou knew it would be useless to stop her, but she still had to say one thing: "You can buy the furniture in Xiaochen's house in the town."

"Why?" Before Li Muchen could speak, Li Wanqing had already asked.

Li Rulin knew his wife's intentions, so he kept his humiliation silent. Li Rulin supported his wife's actions.

Li Muchen also looked at Lin Shuirou in puzzlement, and he was also puzzled.

"In a few years, Xiaochen is going to get married, and she will buy a new one." Seeing the puzzlement in her children's eyes, Lin Shuirou explained, in fact, it's okay for her not to explain, but she was afraid that her son would misunderstand her. Mothers treat their siblings differently.I bought good ones for Li Wanqing, but bad ones for him.

"Oh, then let's buy mine in the town too, and you and dad's will go to the city to buy." Hearing Lin Shuirou's explanation, Li Wanqing said decisively.

"I and your mother's house are also bought in the town." Li Rulin echoed Li Wanqing's words, even Li Wanqing didn't care about those superficial vanity.Both he and his wife are in their decades, let alone care about it.

Seeing his father and sister vying to buy furniture with him in the town, Li Muchen said blankly: "Father, sister, you are..."

Li Wanqing cut off Li Muchen's words, and said with a smile: "We are a family."

Li Rulin and his wife were very pleased to see their daughter love their younger brother so much.

Li Muchen's eyes became hot, and he only made a nasal sound: "En."

They are a family, so love each other.

These words were to be remembered by Mu Chen for a lifetime.

We talked all night, and the next morning just after dawn, the three of us had breakfast and drove the ox cart into the city.

Although it was agreed to buy furniture in the town last night, Li Wanqing still wanted to visit Fucheng. She has been in this world for almost half a year and has never been to a city. In fact, she is still full of curiosity about this world. Today She has the right to go to the city to see the world.

Fucheng is Fucheng. The scale, the population, the spacious streets paved with blue bricks, and the sound of yelling and selling are not comparable to a small town.

The main purpose of the father and three children coming to the city was to look at the furniture. After some inquiries, the three of them couldn't help being speechless. The price of furniture in this prefecture is really much more expensive than that in the town. A dressing table is more expensive than that in the town. The expensive six hundred Wen.

Not to mention the other big pieces of furniture, for example, the cabinet is a tael more expensive than the ones in the town. It is undeniable that the quality and style in this prefecture are indeed much better than the ones in the town, but the price is also much better.

"Father, let's go back to town and buy it." After shopping around, Li Wanqing had to agree with Lin Shuirou's words last night.

"En." Li Rulin nodded heavily.

Although 200 taels is already an astronomical figure for ordinary people, their family's silver is not blown by strong winds. If it is really necessary to spend all the money to buy furniture, Li Rulin will also feel heartbroken.

Li Muchen was only ten years old alone, and the father and daughter didn't ask him for advice anymore, they turned a corner from the street selling furniture to the street lined with restaurants and snack bars.

Li Wanqing looked around happily, since her goal was to open her own restaurant, of course she had to take care of the market, what was missing?And what is missing is what people need, so she will do it, so that her chances of success will be greater.

Li Rulin didn't know what Li Wanqing's plan was. Seeing a pair of children staring at the food stalls on both sides of the road, he thought they were hungry: "What do you want to eat, tell Dad, and Dad will buy it for you."

Although their family is not a wealthy family now, they still have money to buy snacks.

"Father, I want to eat that." As soon as Li Rulin finished speaking, Li Muchen pointed to a stall selling wontons in front.

Following the direction of Li Muchen's finger, Li Rulin saw that it was a small stall owned by an old couple. At this time, the small table next to the stall was already filled with two tables. It seemed that the business was good.

"Okay, let's go eat that." Li Rulin was illiterate, and he couldn't understand the two large characters on the banner in front of the stall.

Li Wanqing saw it and knew it was a small stall selling wontons, so the three of them walked towards the stall.

After walking, Li Rulin saw that what was cooking in the pot were actually wontons. After asking the price, it was five yuan for a big bowl, and he ordered three big bowls.The three of them sat down at the empty small table and waited.

Li Wanqing was still looking at the popular scenes on the street with great interest. In fact, what she most wanted to go to were those restaurants to see what they were selling.

"Father, I want to go there and have a look." Li Wanqing pointed to Jinxiu Zhai opposite the wonton stall.

Li Rulin looked up and saw that the Jinxiu Tower was full of dignified young masters, he said with a dry smile, "Qing'er, next time."

Li Wanqing's purpose was just to go in and have a look at the dishes inside, so he did what he said, and said while getting up: "Father, you and Xiaochen are waiting for me here, I will come as soon as I go."

"Qing'er—" Li Rulin stretched out his hand, and Li Wanqing had already run to the opposite side.

"Father, do you want to follow?" Li Muchen was also worried.

"Well, dad, go and talk to the boss." Li Rulin got up and walked to the old couple. After explaining, he came back and took Li Muchen into the opposite Jinxiu Building.
