Chapter 225 Luo Ruiyun

Li Kailang rode his bicycle to the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Go find Liu Lishun to buy some tickets first. Buy more tickets this time and replenish them all at once so that you don't have to come again during the Chinese New Year."

"Buy more timber tickets, just in case."

Li Kailang first went to the corner of the alley to find Liu Lishun. In the past, Li Kailang always found him outside the supply and marketing cooperative.

But those times were at the end of the month, and Liu Lishun would go to the supply and marketing cooperative on purpose, but now is not the end of the month.

After a while, Li Kailang discovered a sneaky figure, and when he took a closer look, it was indeed the person he was looking at.

"Hey, Brother Liu!"

"Hey, Brother Li! Why are you here? Are you short of tickets?" Liu Lishun handed over a stack of tickets without saying a word.

After a while, Li Kailang left with a pile of tickets, satisfied, and came to the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Huh? That is?"

Suddenly, Li Kailang found a familiar figure outside the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Senior Brother!" Li Kailang shouted.

When Lu Wenjiang heard a familiar voice, he turned around and saw that it was Li Kailang.

"Hey, Xiao Li!" Lu Wenjiang said in surprise.

"Brother, sister-in-law!"

"It's Xiao Li!" The figure beside Lu Wenjiang turned around, looked at Li Kailang, and nodded slightly.

The figure is graceful and her soft voice reveals a softness.

Beneath the fair skin is a gentle face, which seems to always carry a sense of tranquility and warmth.

Her gentle and kind temperament makes people attracted to her.

It was Lu Wenjiang’s wife, Luo Ruiyun.

Luo Ruiyun is a few years younger than Lu Wenjiang, but she is the one who puzzles Li Kailang the most, and even Zhang Jinwu and Han Xiaohui.

How did Lu Wenjiang, a big and rough man, marry such a gentle woman like Luo Ruiyun?

She actually still fooled around with Lu Wenjiang, and now she is 25 years old and still has no child.

However, Luo Ruiyun is not a housewife. She is quite capable, as she was able to marry Lu Wenjiang.

"Xiao Li, you are such a fool. When you go out to buy things, you should wear some decent clothes. Look at your clothes, they are all torn."

"When we get to work tomorrow, I'll get some fabric from the factory and ask you, Wen Jiang, to bring it to you."

Luo Ruiyun found that Li Kailang's shirt was torn in some places.

"How embarrassing is this!"

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about. Your sister-in-law works in a textile factory. It's not impossible for her to take some fabric!"

"Pa!" Luo Ruiyun slapped Lu Wenjiang lightly on the head and scolded:
"What do you mean? This is public property, you can't just take it!"

"Yes, yes!" Lu Wenjiang nodded repeatedly and continued:
"Your sister-in-law is the team leader and has quite a few shares on hand. It's almost the end of the year, so cash them all out!"

Every worker working in a large factory has hidden benefits, and Luo Ruiyun is no exception.

As a worker in a textile factory, she received a certain quota every month and had to spend money to buy cloth, without using tickets or even spending any money at all.

Therefore, Lu Wenjiang's family had no shortage of clothes.

"How can this be so embarrassing!" Li Kailang felt a little embarrassed.

Lu Wenjiang said: "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. My new clothes are all ready this year. If I don't use them, I won't need them anymore!"

Luo Ruiyun agreed softly: "Yes, Xiao Li, you don't have to be polite. If you don't take it, it will be too formal, and I will be angry!"

As she spoke, a blush appeared on Luo Ruiyun's fair face, as if she was really angry.

Lu Wenjiang also took advantage of the situation and grabbed Li Kailang's collar: "You kid, you dare to make my wife angry, are you looking for a fight?"

"Qi!" Luo Ruiyun couldn't help but smile when he saw Lu Wenjiang being so reckless.

"What are you doing? You scared Xiao Li!" Luo Ruiyun patted Lu Wenjiang's arm gently.

"You kid, hurry up and thank me. If your sister-in-law hadn't begged for mercy, I would have beaten you to death!"

The two of them sang the same tune, and Li Kailang had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender.

"I was wrong! I was wrong!"

"Humph, you're smart, kid! It's settled, I'll give it to you tomorrow!"

Lu Wenjiang let go of Li Kailang's collar and returned to Luo Ruiyun.

Luo Ruiyun looked at Lu Wenjiang with a smile and took his hands into her arms.

Seeing this, what is there to not understand? Luo Ruiyun likes Lu Wenjiang because he can give her a sense of security.

Besides, since Lu Wenjiang still dotes on her, there is no reason for Luo Ruiyun not to be with Lu Wenjiang.

"By the way, what are you buying at the supply and marketing cooperative? We can go buy some together." Lu Wenjiang asked.

Li Kailang replied: "Oh, nothing much, just some oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and a few more."

Before Li Kailang could finish his words, a shout suddenly came from a distance.

"Brother Lu, Xiao Li!"

The three of them looked in the direction of the voice, "It's Xiaofen and Xiaoya!"

The people who came were Zhang Fen and his sister Zhang Ya.

Zhang Fen ran over excitedly: "Sister-in-law! Why are you all here? Are you doing something secretly without telling me?"

"Brother, can you speak?" Zhang Ya slapped Zhang Fen on the back.

"I go--"

"It hurts!" Zhang Fen covered his back and jumped in pain.

"Zhang Ya, you can't hit your brother for no reason!"

"Hmph, who told you to speak without thinking? What else can you do outside the supply and marketing cooperative?" Zhang Ya said disdainfully.

"Sister-in-law!" Zhang Ya called out in a low voice and came to Luo Ruiyun.

"Hmph!" Looking at Luo Ruiyun holding Lu Wenjiang's hand, she rolled her eyes at him and took Lu Wenjiang's hand away.

Then he let Luo Ruiyun hold his hands.

"Sister-in-law, give me a hug!" Zhang Ya said coquettishly.

"How old are you, but you're still like a child! I don't want you to hold me!" Luo Ruiyun nodded Zhang Ya's head and said with a smile.

"No! I just want a hug!" Zhang Ya shook Luo Ruiyun's hand.

"Okay, okay, hug me!"

Luo Ruiyun gently held Zhang Ya in his arms and coaxed her like a child.

Zhang Ya buried her head in Luo Ruiyun's arms with a look of happiness.

"Eh~~~"

Zhang Fen couldn't help but shudder when he saw Zhang Ya acting so coquettishly.

"Who can stand looking at this girl?"

"Damn it! I've never done that before!" Lu Wenjiang gritted his teeth.

"That's enough, Xiaoya, just hug me for a while, don't keep hugging my wife!"

"Well~sister-in-law!" Zhang Ya ignored her and shook her head coquettishly.

"Stop it!" Luo Ruiyun glanced at Lu Wenjiang in a reproachful manner.

"Who wouldn't be confused after seeing this!" Li Kailang muttered to himself.

Even Zhang Jinwu couldn't control Zhang Ya's carefree personality, but she was defeated by Luo Ruiyun.

"Damn it! By the way, Xiao Li, what else did you say you wanted to buy?" Lu Wenjiang could only change the subject.

“Oh, and I need to buy some wood too!”

Lu Wenjiang was puzzled: "Wood? Why did you buy that?"

Li Kailang said as a matter of course: "What else can I do? Of course, I can make furniture! What else can I do!"

Hearing this, several people looked at Li Kailang in surprise.

Zhang Fen asked, "When did you learn to make furniture?"

Li Kailang replied, "It didn't take long, just a few months. At least I've been practicing for a while and making some furniture."

Finally, Li Kailang added: "Although the fight was not good!"

"Really?" Lu Wenjiang didn't believe it. It wasn't that he didn't believe what Li Kailang said, but this matter.

The drivers basically work very hard every day and rest when they get home. They don’t have time to do carpentry work or make furniture.

"Really? If you don't believe me, come to my house and see for yourself later!"

"Okay! I also want to see how well you play. If it's not good, I will ask you to make furniture for me." Zhang Fen said directly.

"Okay, I'll just go to your house and see how the decoration is going?" Lu Wenjiang also agreed.

After the house was renovated, Li Kailang invited Zhang Jinwu and others to stay, but they were delayed by some things. When he invited them again later, the new house period had passed, so no one went.

Li Kailang invited, "Okay, it's settled. Come to my house later. I'm going to buy some wood now. Do you want to come with me?"

"Okay, I don't have anything to do, so I'll go with you to take a look!" Lu Wenjiang agreed.

The others had no objections, so they accompanied Li Kailang to take a look.

This time, Li Kailang bought 6 square meters of timber tickets from Liu Lishun. After what happened to Jia Shizhong, Li Kailang decided to be prepared and prepare more.

Secondly, Li Kailang was worried that in the future, due to food shortages, timber plantations would be cut down and replaced with crops.

"Hello, I want red sandalwood, huanghuali, ironwood, beech, elm, and nanmu."

The first three are slightly more expensive, while the last three are relatively cheap.

"Okay, please wait!" The salesperson took the timber ticket from Li Kailang and went to prepare.

Lu Wenjiang asked, "Xiao Li, you bought so much wood. Are you going to use it all? I think it's quite a lot and will take up a lot of space."

"I saw other carpenters only buy a little, why do you buy so much?"

Others also looked at Li Kailang in confusion.

Seeing this, Li Kailang explained: "You can't use it all at once. If you take it little by little, it will eventually be used up. I have also used up all the ones I bought before."

"As for the large amount, these woods have to be stored well and won't go bad. It's okay to buy more at one time."

"Each type of wood has its own function, and you can tell them apart if you buy more."

Hearing this, several people nodded, still half understanding it, but since it was Li Kailang who spent the money, they didn't say much.

Suddenly, Li Kailang thought of something.

"By the way, if you want to buy wood, it's best to buy red sandalwood."

"Rosewood? Why buy it? We don't know how to do carpentry, so it's useless to buy it!" Zhang Fen was puzzled.

Li Kailang looked around and saw no one, so he whispered, "You just don't understand this!"

"You see, this red sandalwood is not expensive now, but it will be very valuable in the future. If it is made into furniture, it will be even more expensive."

"Why?" Zhang Ya asked rarely.

"Really? But why do we need to save red sandalwood?"

Li Kailang explained: "Because this red sandalwood is not easy to grow, it takes decades or even hundreds of years to grow to a size that can be purchased. It takes a long time."

"There are a lot of red sandalwood now, so the price is not expensive. When it becomes scarce in the future, it will be expensive. If you leave it unused, it may become a family heirloom."

"Really?" Zhang Fen looked at Li Kailang with his eyes like flash lights.

"Really, can I still lie to you?"

"That's right! You calculated very accurately!" Lu Wenjiang agreed.

Li Kailang's previous predictions went smoothly and the food was prepared in advance. The only thing that didn't come true was the bicycle.

Li Kailang reminded: "But don't buy a bunch! Just buy one and keep it. It will take decades for this red sandalwood to be valuable."

"Oh! I thought so!" Zhang Fen was very disappointed. He really wanted to buy a bunch of rosewood to keep.

Lu Wenjiang looked at Luo Ruiyun and said, "Okay, since Xiao Li said so, let's buy a square of red sandalwood next time."

"Okay!" Luo Ruiyun nodded in agreement.

As they chatted, the salesman came back and said, "Comrade, the wood is ready. Do you want to go take a look?"

"Okay!" After a few people took a look at the wood, Li Kailang went to pay.

Then he went out to find a mover and asked him to take the goods to the courtyard.

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the courtyard.

"Please, masters, please help me move it in!"

As he spoke, Li Kailang went in first, opened the door of the ear room, and cleared out a space.

The movers followed closely behind, and as soon as Li Kailang finished packing, they moved in.

"Please, everyone, move in. You can put them anywhere you want." Li Kailang gestured.

The movers couldn't help but show envy when they saw the furniture that took up half of the space.

Lu Wenjiang and his companions curiously went into the room and saw all kinds of furniture.

"Oh my god, Xiao Li, you made all of this!" Zhang Fen looked at them in amazement.

Tables, chairs, benches, wardrobes, cabinets, dressing tables
The more time went by, the more complex the furniture was. Those were also made after Li Kailang was promoted to Carpentry (Proficient).

"Of course, look at all the debris on the ground. Didn't I create it?" Li Kailang couldn't help but feel a little arrogant.

Luo Ruiyun and Zhang Ya looked at it and couldn't help but walk forward and gently touch the wardrobe and dressing table.

These are the things women like.

"With so many pieces of furniture, what are you going to do with them, Xiao Li?" Luo Ruiyun asked.

"What should I do? I haven't thought about it yet. Sister-in-law, just take whichever one you like when you go back!"

"How can I feel embarrassed!" This time it was Luo Ruiyun's turn to feel embarrassed.

With Lu Wenjiang's ability, it is not a problem for him to have a dressing table and wardrobe at home, but they are not as new as Li Kailang's.

It was left to them by the previous generation, so they didn't buy a new one.

Li Kailang said: "This is nothing. My sister-in-law can give me fabric. These things only take some time to make. It's nothing."

"Besides, I bought so much wood and I have more furniture to make. If you take it away, it will save me some space."

The two of them passed the buck to each other for a while, and Lu Wenjiang said directly: "Ruiyun, don't be polite with Xiao Li, just take whatever you like!"

"And me, I want one too!" Zhang Ya said immediately.

"Okay, take them all, take them all! Take whatever you like." Li Kailang didn't care.

"Then I won't be polite! Don't miss it!" Zhang Fen smiled.

Li Kailang made a lot of furniture, but there were only a few large pieces of furniture. Several people picked among each other and took away most of Li Kailang's things.

Suddenly, everyone felt embarrassed, and Lu Wenjiang said directly:

"Xiao Li, we have picked up all your furniture. It is not easy for you to make furniture. We will buy it from you."

Li Kailang waved his hands repeatedly: "Really, it doesn't cost much!"

"No, that won't work. You have to spend money to buy wood, and it takes time to make furniture."

After some evasion, Li Kailang gave in and took the money, but he only took the money for the materials.

Seeing Li Kailang collecting the money, several people felt better.

"Comrade, the moving is done! Can you see if there is anything missing?" said the mover at this time.

"Okay, thank you for your help!" Li Kailang said as he was taking out the money to return to them.

"Hey, Xiao Li, I'll pay for it. Please help us move it."

Lu Wenjiang directly held down Li Kailang's hand and took out money to pay the movers.

"Xiao Li's money has been paid, so it's a good opportunity for you to help move these furniture and deliver them to my house."

"Mine too!" Zhang Ya immediately agreed.

"Okay, we'll move it right away, right away!" said the mover happily.

I just finished moving one order and another one came. I can make a lot of money.

Several people lent a hand to help move out the furniture.

"Well, I'll lead the way so that the masters won't get lost!" Zhang Fen volunteered.

After all, there were so many extra furniture at once and they had to be moved back home. If it wasn't for someone familiar with the place, Zhang Jinwu and Lu's father wouldn't dare to accept them, for fear of sending them to the wrong person.

"Okay!" Lu Wenjiang accepted it happily.

"Brother, I'll go with you too!" Zhang Ya said anxiously. She was in a hurry to go back but was also afraid that her mother would snatch her away again.

She couldn't bear to give such new furniture to others.

"Look at you like that, don't worry, I will definitely not let mom take your wardrobe, just stay at your brother Li's house, I will pick you up later."

After saying this, regardless of whether Zhang Yatong agreed or not, he turned and left.

"Hmph!" Zhang Ya snorted lightly, and Luo Ruiyun couldn't help but smile.

If Mr. and Mrs. Lu didn't care about these things, she might have been anxious to go back.

"Okay, don't worry, Master's Wife won't take yours. If she does, I'll back you up and get it back for you!"

Luo Ruiyun put his hands on Zhang Ya's shoulders and comforted her.

"Really? Sister-in-law, please don't lie to me!"

"Really!" Luo Ruiyun nodded.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, you are the best!" Zhang Ya buried her head in Luo Ruiyun's arms again.

Lu Wenjiang nodded in agreement. If Luo Ruiyun wanted it, Master's Wife Han Xiaohui wouldn't be able to refuse.

"Okay, let's go and see how Xiao Li's house is decorated."
