The carriage stopped, and the Li family's butler jumped out of the carriage,
"Silly girl, I have brought all the manpower. Just tell us where to do it and leave the other work to them."
Xing Rui took a look and saw that there were not only many strong laborers sitting in the car behind, but also several women. She looked at the housekeeper of Li Mansion inexplicably.
"Why are there still women?"
"Oh, I'm here to cook for everyone, so you don't have to worry about that. Just tell us where to build the house.
As big or small a house as you want to build, let them do the rest."
Xing Rui never thought that the eldest young master of the Li family would be so thoughtful. Everyone is coming, so let's take them there first and then talk about it.
"You guys go straight ahead along this road and go outside the village to where the houses are being built at the foot of the mountain. I will be there soon."
"Okay, we'll wait for you there."
The housekeeper of the Li Mansion nodded, turned around and got into the carriage again,
Xing Rui watched these people walking by and was about to return to her godmother's house.
Several villagers passing by hurriedly came over.
"Silly girl, why are there so many people and cars? What are you going to do?"
"Oh, you're here to help me build a house. Sorry, I'm waiting for you."
Xing Rui nodded and hurriedly walked home without saying anything to these curious people.
"Girl, what's going on?"
Lao Wangtou just followed him to the gate and saw these people. He looked at Xing Rui with strange eyes.
"Godfather, Godmother, didn't I say that I wanted to open a medical clinic? The eldest young master of the Li family has sent people over to dig the foundation.
First dig out the foundation and let it grow until it becomes solid in autumn, then build the house.
This time we will build a house made of all blue bricks."
"Girl, are we going to do something?"
Mrs. Wang said hurriedly.
"No need for Godmother, they all brought it, I just need to tell them how long to dig the foundation.
When I'm fine, I've already drawn a sketch, and I'll just give it to the housekeeper of the Li Mansion later."
"Then don't we need to leave someone to look after us?"
Old man Wang asked again, Xing Rui looked at Liang Sheng who was rubbing his feet in the room and smiled,
"Isn't there someone there?"
"Liang Sheng's ankle is sprained. It's inconvenient for him. It's better for me to stay and take care of him. There are so many people here."
Old Man Wang took the initiative to ask Ying to stay, and Xing Rui actually planned to do so.
"Okay, godfather, please do some hard work. I don't know much about building a house. If there is anything they can't do, just tell me.
You're welcome, they are all laborers hired by Master Li and paid for."
"Well, let's go there quickly, don't make people wait."
Xing Rui nodded, but saw Liang Sheng standing up from inside and jumping towards the outside with a stick.
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Liang Weiwei, who had just gotten up, got off the bed and saw her father jumping up, so she hurriedly went to meet him.
"What happened to your leg?"
"It's okay, I accidentally sprained my foot."
As soon as the second daughter opens her mouth in such a soft and soft manner, Liang Sheng's face will immediately show an expression of Wen Mo being very helpful.
Xing Rui felt very uncomfortable looking at her. She was obviously the girl he had picked up, so why did he, the father who picked her up, look like he was enjoying it?
I don’t know what tricks this man used to make several children recognize him so much, especially the little girl Liang Weiwei.
"Mom, can I go over and help too?"
Although Xing Zihe was much better, Xing Rui never let him leave the stick and walked carefully.
Seeing him walking out of the back room at this time, Xing Rui greeted him.
"Good boy, don't you tell me? Your illness will be cured only after the house is built. Take good care of your sister at home and don't let her run around outside."
"oh,"
Xing Zihe looked a little disappointed. He blamed himself for his poor health.
"You and Weiwei should eat quickly. Just leave some food in the pot for Duoduo and feed it to her when she wakes up."
"Mom, dad's leg is broken, why should we go to the house?"
Liang Weiwei held Liang Sheng's arm without the stick and looked at Xing Rui pleadingly.
"Your father is the only one who can read in this family, so he can be considered the master of this family. If he doesn't go when I'm not around, you can decide what to do?"
Xing Rui obviously meant this to Liang Sheng.
"You should be busy with your business. Since I am the master of this family, I know what I should do."
I am the master of this family? Haha...
Did the owner of the house build a house without knowing it beforehand?
You cunning woman, you can treat me, Liang Sheng, as half your master!
I'm your puppet on strings, Xing Rui. Forget it, good men don't fight with women.
When Liang Sheng fell silent, Xing Rui knew that this man must not be holding anything back.
Ignoring him, he picked up the basket and walked out with his godfather and godmother.
Xing Rui handed the drawing to the housekeeper of the Li Mansion. The housekeeper looked at it for a long time but didn't understand it, so he handed it to Xing Rui again.
"Silly girl, just tell me how many houses to build. These people are all good at building houses. As long as you tell them where to build them, they will know what to do."
Xing Rui looked at the sketch he drew, fearing to arouse suspicion.
They are all drawn bit by bit with charcoal using the yellow paper used to wrap the pastries.
Also, what I drew was the layout of the house after it was built, so digging the foundation didn't seem to be useful.
"See the house I'm building now? It's three normal houses. I ask you to build one more house than this one, which is like four normal houses."
"Come here, listen carefully, and dig as the silly lady said."
A dark-faced man walked over and stood aside very humbly, listening to Xing Rui's words.
"Come, follow me. I'll tell you. Just remember it."
Xing Rui looked at his house which was a bit to the south. This house was built to accommodate patients, so naturally it couldn't be built on both sides according to the layout of wing rooms.
Fortunately, the area around me is very large. The Hong family probably planned to build a very large mansion back then, and the filled area was enough to build a large courtyard.
"The foundation of a four-room house was dug out next to my main house."
Xing Rui walked around on one side. There were still a lot of adobe piles there, and they had to ask those who came to work to move them away first.
"Okay, it'll be fine if it's side by side with this adobe house, right?"
"Um"
Xing Rui nodded, looked around again, and suddenly thought of something.
"I also want to build a toilet. Do I need to dig a foundation for this one?"
"Toilet?"
That dark-faced man was confused. The house has been built for so many years, but I haven't heard that a foundation is needed for the toilet.
Xing Rui also noticed the big man's surprise and hurriedly explained.
"I built separate toilets for men and women, so that when I build my medical clinic, it will be convenient for patients to use the toilet."
"Master, I have been building houses for so many years, but I have never seen anyone who needs to lay a foundation to build a toilet."
The dark-faced man asked very carefully.
"I've thought about it. We are located in the north, and the winter is relatively long and cold early.
I asked about building a house. The foundation is very deep. Is there a toilet?"
Xing Rui had found the most suitable place to build a toilet and stopped.
"Let's just go here. The foundation doesn't need to be too deep, but it needs to be laid. There will be a room for men and women."
