Chapter 265: Rich Harvest, Jia Zhang's Fault in the Construction Team
After lifting a thousand-pound stone slab, Lin Chen smiled.
"System, these things are so comfortable to look at! Although I don't need them now, I just want to take them away."
[It will be useful sooner or later. It will never see the light of day here anyway. It is only right for the host to take it away...]
Lin Chen took another look and asked: "How much are these gold, silver and jewelry worth?"
[Excluding artworks, the current price of gold and silver is about US$100 million]
"Oh my god, I'm an instant billionaire."
ten minutes later
The original earth pit was backfilled and Lin Chen flushed it with water before leaving.
I'm in a particularly good mood today, so Lin Chen decided to celebrate...
Exercising helps them sweat and has a detoxifying effect on their bodies.
When Lin Chen returned to Xia's Hutong, Chen Xueru and Xu Huizhen were already prepared...
……
Since Qin Huairu moved in, they have handed the tavern over to Zhang Long and Zhao Hu. Every day after the silk shop closes early, they come here...
"Brother Lin Chen is back. I'll go get him some water for a shower..." Liu Lan said as she got off the big bed.
"Lan Zi, how about you be the vanguard and consume the first wave..."
Chen Xueru winked at Liu Lan as she spoke, and Xu Huizhen clenched her fist and gestured to encourage her.
When Liu Lan saw her sisters encouraging her so much, she had no choice but to agree to them.
"Uh! Okay, okay..."
The little girl is easy to fool. When her sister encouraged her, she didn't care anymore...
in the bathroom
Lin Chen took a bath and splashed water everywhere...
And it took him half an hour to shower.
……
Twelve o'clock at night
Lin Chen then quietly came to the kang in the east room... Qin Huairu's eyelashes moved slightly, and she felt that her man had come back and slowly leaned towards Lin Chen.
"are you tired?"
Lin Chen kissed her forehead and smiled: "It's still early! Why are you awake?"
"I fell asleep at ten o'clock, and my son kicked me in the belly just now. Didn't he wake up again? It seems that he knew that his father was back..."
The two chatted for more than an hour, and Qin Huairu was imagining a beautiful future...
Lin Chen did not tell her the general background trends for the next thirty years, anyway he could protect her.
No matter how stormy it is outside, as long as my family has enough food and drink and is happy, that's enough.
……
The next morning around ten o'clock
Courtyard house
I don’t know how it happened, but Banggeng had just fallen asleep for less than half an hour.
The shouts of a construction team working together in the backyard and tamping the soil woke Bang Geng up again.
Jia Zhang had just taken a break after holding the baby for the whole morning, and she couldn’t stand Banggeng’s crying anymore.
So she picked up her eldest grandson and went to the backyard to find trouble, cursing.
I can't not use my grandson as a shield! There are too many people in the backyard. If the construction team makes a mistake, I will be the one who suffers.
"Damn it, are you guys doing this on purpose? Just pound the tamping stone! Why are you shouting? You won't work without shouting, right? Look, my eldest grandson just fell asleep and you woke him up again..."
Since the last time they woke up Bang Geng with firecrackers, the construction team realized that Jia Zhang was not a good man and had restrained herself a lot... She didn't want to offend anyone.
But today they really need to shout together when tamping the soil, and they just asked Bai if it is possible.
Bai naturally agreed with them shouting... A big banquet is not for free, since you are invited, you should do what you should do.
A young man from the construction team chuckled and said, "Big size, how about I hold your grandchild for you? We need to shout slogans and work together to tamp the ground today, I'm really sorry."
When Jia Zhang saw that the other person was dirty and covered in mud and sweat...she didn't want her eldest grandson to be held by him.
"Go away, look at what you've done. I can't let you hold my eldest grandson...just keep your voice down!"
Just then, Bai came back from boiling water for the construction team, and she immediately started to argue with Jia Zhang...
Second Aunt, Dwarf Tiger joined in...
Half an hour later, Jia Zhang was so tired from carrying her grandson that she had to retreat back to the central courtyard.
……
Two days later
Liu Haizhong started directing the people in the courtyard to set up tables, chairs and benches early in the morning... Today is Sunday and three families are going to hold a Liang banquet. Together with the construction team workers, there are more than ten tables... People in the courtyard can sit for free, so every household is very enthusiastic to help. Men and women are all involved...
Jia Zhang, the only lazy person, was so happy when she saw everyone busy.
"Finally you guys are setting up the banquet! I'm here to scare you to death, how dare you not set up the banquet... You can't fool people with this."
Jia Dongxu hurriedly stopped his mother from talking to herself.
"Mom, can you please keep your voice down? It would be embarrassing if Master heard it. It would seem like our Jia family was the one causing trouble. If you have nothing to do, go wash the clothes Banggeng took off..."
In fact, the dwarf tiger who was helping to wash the vegetables had heard...
Jia Zhang rolled her eyes at her son and went back to her room. Now Jia Dongxu only listened to Ma Lan, and Jia Zhang was upset when she saw her son was useless.
"Humph, how come I raised an ungrateful wolf..."
Ma Lan in the inner room couldn't help but smile as she heard Jia Zhang's mumbling.
"My sister-in-law is right. Even good-for-nothings need to be praised frequently... Jia Dongxu has completely taken control of us now. Let's see what this evil mother-in-law can do."
If Ma Lan didn't want someone to take care of Bang Geng, she would have started to encourage Jia Dongxu to find a husband for his mother...
Poolside
Ma Lan held the stick and looked at Sha Zhu in the direction of the kitchen. When the other party noticed her, he nodded to her.
Last night, Sha Zhu told Ma Lan that he had to at least give her a big chicken drumstick today...
Ma Lan was very satisfied with the silly boy's current attitude.
……
In the kitchen
While the other women were away, the short-legged tiger hurriedly walked up to Bai and whispered, "Bai Lianhua, how about we stop fighting today? That lazy Jia Zhang wants to wait for the feast... How about we join forces to deal with her?"
Bai looked in the direction of the Jia family and said, "No problem, we will make a table with her later."
The short-legged tiger didn't know that Old Xu had been seduced by Jia Zhang... Otherwise, he would have come to her house right now, and wouldn't have waited for the seat to join forces with outsiders to attack her...
While preparations for the grand banquet were being made in the Siheyuan, a blind date was also going on at the Fan family in Qianmen.
Su Chunxia took her sister aside and told her what to pay attention to during a blind date.
"Sister, he and my brother-in-law got beaten like pigs that day. Not that great!"
Su Chunmei recalled the scene when she first met Ouyang Yi...and she still wants to laugh.
Su Chunxia also remembered what happened that day...but her man was also beaten, so she had to protect him.
"Oh, your brother-in-law said that they ran into a martial artist. Otherwise, they wouldn't have suffered a loss... You were right to listen to your parents."
Su Chunxia hurriedly changed the subject...
"Sister, we can live in the same alley in the future! We can just ride a bicycle together to work..."
Su Chunxia thought of Ouyang Yi's monthly salary of more than 70 yuan.
"Before we get married, ask Ouyang Yi to buy you another one. I'll take you out every day... He only makes 70 or 80 yuan a month! Your brother-in-law, I and you, the three of us, don't make as much as he does alone."
