Chen Dalian, Liu Lu and a few other buddies helped Brother Zhou organize the wedding, dealt with the remaining ingredients for the banquet, and arranged all the trivial matters. They only had one night's rest and went to the construction site on the morning of the 15th.
Brother Zhou and Ms. Li had a happy wedding, and the next day they packed up a homecoming gift and returned to Grandma Cao’s house.
Most of the Cao family members helped take care of the belongings and went back to their respective homes on the afternoon of the 14th. On the day when the new couple returned home, only Granny Cao’s male cousins went to Granny Cao’s house to have lunch with the new uncle.
Brother Zhou accompanied his new wife back home, preparing to go to work the next day. As a result, it started to rain at dawn on the 16th. It was light rain, but it kept falling, and the outdoor work at the construction site could not be started.
Brother Zhou called the foreman to confirm that there would be no work that day because of the rain, and then asked his buddy to come to his house for dinner at noon. Not to mention that the buddy had to work for two days to help him organize the wedding. It was tiring to hold the banquet on a hot day, so he invited his buddy to have a meal to thank him.
one time.
Liu Lu and others didn't show any politeness, they all agreed. After breakfast, they went to Zhou's house to have a meal, and then went to Le's house to play.
Brother Le was chatting with his buddies at home, while Zhou Qiufeng had invited guests to play at home. She had something to do and went to the village to discuss business with someone who grew glutinous rice. She made a reservation for the glutinous rice from the family who wanted to sell it, and asked the owner to grind the rice before waiting for the weather to clear.
Go pull it again.
There are several early-rice companies in Meicun that grow glutinous rice. Everyone keeps a part for themselves, and basically sells a few hundred kilograms. If the Le family wants to buy glutinous rice, they are naturally willing to sell the rice to the Le family.
Knowing that the little girl said that the weather was going to change, Yan Laoyan packed up the dry rice on the evening of the 15th and left it in the sun for two days. The rice was very dry and ready for storage.
The two elders secretly waited for the rice to be eaten, and packed two large boxes for the little girl to keep for research. They also left a basket of rice under the eaves of the south building to let it absorb some water and moisten it for two days before rolling it.
Rice and other rice are collected into the warehouse.
When things really changed in the morning, the two elders were so surprised that they nagged the little girl for a while, until the little girl became so annoyed that she stopped paying attention to them.
After being bombarded for a while by the almost talkative Yan Lao, Mr. Le Xiao’s head was hurting. He finally managed to escape, put on wooden clogs with ten centimeter-high soles, and held a big umbrella to go out.
Young Master Yan was ordered to stay at home again. With a grimace on his face, he climbed back to the second floor and took out his computer, crying and complaining to his brothers in the team.
The wolf men far away in the capital: "..." The captain stayed at the little Loli's house and had a good time, and he came to show off when he was still fine. I really wanted to beat him to death!
Le Xiao, a student wearing waterproof clogs, walked to the village road and called a supervisor of the construction team responsible for the school construction site to make an appointment to meet.
The supervisor of the construction team received Miss Le's appointment, called another supervisor and a supervisor, brought simple measuring instruments and notebooks, and hurried to Jiudaoxiang Street.
The three of them drove a van and arrived first. After waiting for a while in the Xiang Street parking lot, they saw the girl from the Le family strolling out of the rain holding an umbrella.
People were getting closer and closer, and the three gentlemen also saw the little girl walking on "stilts" shoes. It's no wonder that she also wore a Hanfu with wide robes and long sleeves on rainy days and was not afraid of getting her shoes and skirt wet by the rain.
When she met with people from the construction company, Le Yun discovered that even though she was wearing a pair of high-heeled waterproof clogs, she was still a little shorter than the three men, which made her so depressed that she wanted to hit the wall.
No matter how depressed I was, I couldn't miss my business. I led the three construction engineers into the alley of the cross well and went to the outside of Granny Cao's house. I pointed to Granny Cao's house and asked them how much it would cost to knock down the old house and renovate it.
How much time does it take and how much money is expected.
Because of the rain, Grandma Cao didn't go to the vegetable garden. She was watching her eldest granddaughter teach her youngest granddaughter how to read. She didn't know Miss Le was outside the house until she heard her voice, and hurried from the main room to the eaves to greet her.
Cao Qingyue and Cao Bingyue also followed her grandma outside. When they saw Sister Le's family, they happily called "Sister Le".
The master came out, and Le Yun invited the three gentlemen to enter the main room of Granny Cao's house.
The watermelons grown at home were not picked. Fortunately, the Cao family prepared some fruits when they came to help the day before yesterday. Cao Bingyue first poured a cup of warm water for the guests, then found some cantaloupes, washed them, put them on plates, and brought them to the main room to greet the guests.
After autumn, a rain finally came, which relieved the heat. Sitting at Grandma Cao's house and drinking warm water, I didn't sweat from the heat.
After drinking water, Mr. Le Xiao said that he had hired professionals from a construction company to measure the dimensions of Granny Cao’s house and assess the project budget for knocking down the house and rebuilding it.
Grandma Cao was confused and said blankly: "My family is not planning to build a house."
"You are not planning to build a house, but I am planning to demolish the old house and build a new one for you. The house in your hometown is made of mud walls, and rats have hollowed out the interior in several places. If heavy rain comes diagonally and wets the walls,
The mud walls will collapse, or a strong typhoon of magnitude 5 or 6 can blow down the walls. It is very unsafe to live in a house like this. You have to demolish it and build a new one to live safely."
Le Yun explained with a smile. Without waiting for Granny Cao to say anything, she added: "Besides, Granny Cao, one of your two granddaughters is in high school and the other will go to kindergarten soon. You Zai has a lot of homework when he is studying. Your granddaughter from your hometown
The lighting in the house is not good, and it is easy for the little cubs to do their homework in a house with bad lighting."
Cao Bingyue was shocked: "Sister Le, you want... to help us build a house?"
"Yes," Le Yun nodded gently: "I am optimistic about you and your sister, just think that I am investing in you, creating a better growth environment for your sisters, so that you can grow up healthily and be successful in the future. Don't forget your roots.
Do some good deeds that you can do and let the world know that our men in Fang County are upright and our girls in Jiudao are kind and righteous."
Listening to Sister Le's words, Cao Qingyue felt that every word she said weighed more than a thousand pounds. The corners of her eyes suddenly became wet, and she nodded heavily: "I will! I will also supervise my sister well, and I will be an upright person."
Cao Bingyue doesn't understand yet, she just knows to stay close to her sister and be obedient.
Grandma Cao had tears rolling out of her eyes and her voice was choked with sobs: "Miss Le, please put yourself in my granddaughter's shoes. I have nothing to say. Although my savings are not much, they are still around a hundred thousand. No matter how much I have, I will be fine."
I have to ask you to stick it on."
"Grandma Cao, keep your money. When your granddaughter gets married and you have a great-grandson, you can keep the money to buy milk powder and clothes for your great-grandson."
Le Yun was not surprised that Granny Cao, an old lady, had accumulated over 100,000 yuan, and smiled lightly: "I have made a rough budget, and the demolition and reconstruction will not exceed 300,000 yuan.
To be honest, I usually make millions or tens of millions when I make money, and two or three hundred thousand is just a drop in the bucket to me.
I am not short of money. As long as the money is well spent, I don’t feel bad even if it costs hundreds of millions. If it is not well spent, I will not be willing to part with a penny. I think Granny Cao and your old granddaughter are worth it, so I am willing to spend time with them.
Invest in yourself.
I am only responsible for providing the funds, and the project is left to the construction company. Grandma Cao, you always take advantage of your eldest granddaughter at home to know what documents are needed. You can go to the village cadre tomorrow to help get the construction permit.
Then pack up your things and put them with the Cao family members if they can. If there is no place to put things, move the important things to Grandma Zhou’s house for storage first.
Pigs, chickens and ducks can also be taken to Grandma Zhou’s house. Grandma Zhou’s house is spacious. Even if Grandma Zhou doesn’t have enough space, my house also has room to keep chickens, ducks and pigs.
Once you get your things out, construction will start here right away. If the speed is fast enough, it can be completed before New Year's Day, and the house can be built by the end of the year at the latest for you to live in a new house during the New Year."
"I listen to you, whatever you tell me I should do." Grandma Cao said in her heart, wiped her eyes, and said no more nonsense. The Le family girl was determined to cultivate her granddaughter, and she accepted this love.
"I just like Grandma Cao, who is straightforward and straightforward. She doesn't talk too much and doesn't engage in vain things. She is so comfortable. Let's make an agreement. I will tell Uncle Zhou when I go back that you talked about building a house. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow
It should still rain. Let Uncle Zhou and Aunt Li come back tomorrow to help pack things."
Grandma Cao is not a mother-in-law, a drag-and-drop person. Le Yun feels very relieved. She has completed the ideological work, and the rest is to discuss how to build it.
There is no problem. After discussion, the layout of the house remains unchanged. The first floor must be a reinforced concrete building. Two rooms will be built on the second floor with tiles on top. The two rooms on the second floor will be used to store things, leaving room for the two rooms.
Used to dry things.
The kitchen was also demolished and a new one was built, and the livestock house at the back did not need to be rebuilt.
Miss Lejia and Granny Cao were talking. The three people in the construction company were confused at first, and then they were in admiration. Miss Le, she asked them to measure the foundation without consulting the owner?
Ms. Le is worthy of being a celebrity in E North. She is courageous and has no pressure to play first and then play!
Miss Le and Grandma Cao discussed it, and the three of them went to measure the dimensions of the house. After measuring, they showed it to Miss Le and the Cao family's grandparents, so that they could also confirm the dimensions.
Cao Qingyue wrote down the dimensions of the house's foundation.
After getting the dimensions of the house, Le Xiao's classmates and the people from the construction company left. The three people from the construction company went to the street and took a bus back to the project department at the elementary school construction site to immediately calculate the project materials and funds and prepare the contract.
Grandma Cao sent away the Le family girl and the construction engineering personnel, and took her granddaughter to nag her and told her not to speak ill of her conscience in the future, and took her eldest granddaughter to take care of the property.
Xiao Le's classmate returned to the village from Grandma Cao's house and went straight to Grandma Zhou's house. He found Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou and Grandma Zhou who were busy preparing lunch. Zhou Tianming told them that she was helping Grandma Cao build a house and asked Grandma Cao to take care of her granddaughter.
Come to Zhou's house to stay temporarily.
The young and old of the Zhou family were shocked.
When Xiao Lele said she wanted to help Granny Cao build a house, she certainly didn't mean to do the work. When she said building a house, she meant to help her build a house with money.
Building a house costs at least hundreds of thousands. Xiao Lele and Grandma Cao have no blood relationship, and they didn’t have any deep friendship before. Xiao Lele is actually willing to spend hundreds of thousands to help Grandma Cao build a house. Do you think you can help her?
Surprised?
After coming back to his senses, everyone looked complicated.
Especially Ms. Li, her eyes were red. She knew that Miss Le wanted to make her, the new daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, look good. Otherwise, why would Miss Le have given her a dress, borrowed a luxury car, and now built a house for her parents' family.
She couldn't say anything to swear to heaven that she would not be ungrateful, but she remembered in her mind the support and care the Le family girls gave to the three generations of their family.
In the future, if the two cubs dare to imitate Li Xiaoyan and Zhou Jiachunmei, she will break the person's legs and cut off the relationship without anyone else telling her, and she will act as if she has never given birth to such a cub.
Ms. Li wiped her eyes and said to her mother-in-law and Brother Zhou: "If Qingyue and Bingyue make trouble, if Xia Long and I are not at home, Mom, you and Tianming don't have to worry about me. You should scold me."
Just scold them, and give them a beating if they need to be beaten. If a child does something wrong and doesn’t get beaten to death, it won’t last long.”
"Okay, as you said, I won't spoil my children. I will speak to those who can be reasonable. If I don't change my words, I will be slapped." Grandma Zhou nodded happily. She was most afraid of the person who protects the cubs regardless of importance, Mrs. Meng.
Just never let her hit Li Xiaoyan when she made a mistake.
Zhou Tianming also nodded, and Le Yun recognized the Cao sisters, indicating that the two cubs were teachable, and he would also supervise the two stepsisters.
The Zhou family was mentally prepared. Le Xiaoxiao walked home happily and saw Mrs. Wang, Grandma Chao and Mrs. Wu making dumplings, as well as Grandma Liu Qi and Grandma Zhang San who came over to sit around.
The handle was pushed and shoved away by the old ladies.
The old ladies refused to let themselves get involved, and Mr. Le Xiao also took over other people's work. He took off his clogs and wore embroidered shoes and went up to the second floor. He continued to take out the box containing the patient's diagnosis and continued to write the diagnosis.
Zhou Qiufeng went out for a walk and has come back. She and Sister-in-law Liu, Sister-in-law Zhao, Sister-in-law Hu, Sister-in-law He, fried sesame seeds and peanuts in the kitchen and were grinding them. Dad Le and his buddies were eating melon seeds and chatting about the mountains.
Li Xian took his junior brother to class first, and Lao Yan and Lao Yan didn't attend. They also went to the living room on the second floor to sit, drinking tea and playing chess with Young Master Yan.
In fact, the two elders didn't want to play chess, but every time the little girl was at home and she was working on the second floor, they would usually make tea and drink it, so Yan Shaozi always stuck to the little girl and got good tea.
The two old men, who have become mature in age, have only recently understood the mystery, so now when the little girl is not teaching Leshan at home, they secretly stay on the second floor.
Mr. Yan, who was left behind by the little Lolita, made a pot of tea and complained to his brothers. As a result, two thirds of the pot of tea was taken away by the two elders. There was nothing he could do. Seeing that the Little Lolita was back, he went there again
Make a pot.
Sister-in-law Zhao and others ground the sesame and peanut fillings and went to make the buns.
At noon, the dumplings and steamed buns made by the old ladies were also baked. The women did not go to Zhou's house and ate dumplings at Le's house. Le Ge brought a pack of freshly baked dumplings and went to his mother-in-law's house for lunch with his friends.
Classmate Du Miaoshu, who was fed a lot of chicken soup by the girl at the same table, had a good night's sleep and woke up naturally. When she woke up, she found that no one else in the dormitory came back last night.
People who have boyfriends stay up all night, so you can imagine what they are doing.
Student Du, who understood instantly, was embarrassed. He opened the curtains and saw that it was raining lightly outside. He was filled with emotion. No wonder he woke up late. It turned out to be raining and it was too cool, so he slept soundly.
Feeling the refreshing feeling on her face, Du Miaoshu did some stretching exercises, washed her face and brushed her teeth quickly, packed herself up and was about to go downstairs to find food, when a call from Manager Xue came in.
After answering the phone, Manager Xue knew that she had gotten up and told her that he was downstairs and asked her to have breakfast. Classmate Du went downstairs carrying a small backpack.
Xue Yunlang was waiting downstairs with an umbrella. He saw the girl running downstairs with a bright smile: "It's raining today, so I can't run in the morning. Are you interested in going to the lotus pond in the nearby park to enjoy the rain?"
"Okay." Du Miaoshu decided to spend some time with Director Xue, and naturally readily accepted the invitation to go on a date.
The girl was in good spirits and did not refuse to go out for a walk. Xue Yunlang also understood that she was expressing her willingness to be with someone else. He happily opened the umbrella and took the girl into the rain curtain to start the first date of love.
