Pampered Pastoral: Orion’s Delicious Little Lady

The construction team building the wall was in full swing. Mrs. Li pulled Song Lihua aside, her voice full of pride: "I tell you, this construction team is the third son of my second cousin's third aunt's fourth son. I was introduced by a friend of my second brother. It is said that they are very skilled in building walls, and they used to build walls for wealthy families!"

Song Lihua was stunned for a moment. She always felt that the Li family had quite a lot of relatives. Was this what she said when she bought Lu Chunquin last time?

He is also the second brother of the third uncle of the fourth son of the second cousin's third aunt, right?

This second brother is quite powerful and has a wide network of contacts.

According to the current construction progress, it will take about two to three days to expand the courtyard, and the cost is not high. The total construction materials and construction costs are only [-] yuan.

However, according to their unwritten rules here, Song Lihua has to bear three meals a day for the workers during these two or three days.

Song Lihua's budget is very sufficient, and the material and construction costs are completely within her budget, so she is not stingy about eating three meals a day.

In the morning, there are big white steamed buns, pickles and gruel; at noon, there are strong braised pork, stir-fried vegetables and white rice; in the mid-afternoon, there is cold skin to relieve the heat; in the evening, there are pimple soup and pancakes.

There is plenty of fuel and water every day.

Song Lihua now has a very good reputation in Lujiacun. In addition to the Li family, Aunt Zheng and Lu Mingyuan and his son also often come to help. People come in and out every day, which is very lively.

In just a day or two, Song Lihua's name has been widely circulated in the construction industry.

It is really a blessing for the workers to meet such a boss. They eat well every meal and have endless energy to work.

Some employers are stingy, and every meal is extremely perfunctory, so that they have no energy to work, and the construction period is delayed for a day or two.

Having said that, there are always those who do whatever they want just because their boss is easy to talk to.

After the courtyard wall was expanded, Song Lihua hired people in the town to dig a pond and build a new house.

I originally thought that the construction team invited this time would be as diligent as the one introduced by Li's second cousin's third aunt's fourth son's third uncle's second brother's friend, but she did not expect that the five-day construction period would be extended. By the eighth day, the work was only half done.

Nowadays, apart from the built wall, there are only empty wooden shelves inside Lu Jingzhe's house.

Song Lihua, Lu Xiaoman, Zhou, as well as Lu Chunquin and Lu Dongzhi all stayed at Li's house.

Li Shi naturally doesn't care.

Her husband and son both worked in the town and only came back once in a while, leaving her alone at home.

Now that Song Lihua and the others are here, Mrs. Li says that her family finally feels a little bit human.

"You can stay here with me as long as you want. It's just a good time to keep me company. There's no need to worry about the house." Mrs. Li kept comforting Song Lihua, thinking that she was afraid of being disturbed because she was staying in her own home. This pushed the construction deadline forward.

Song Lihua shook her head and frowned: "I'm not afraid of troublesome Aunt Li, our two families are so familiar with each other. I'm afraid that the construction team will see that there are only three weak women in our family, and it's obvious that delaying the construction schedule will lead to death. They are asking us to cook for them for nothing!"

After Li Shi thought about it, it was possible.

Song Lihua served them three delicious meals a day, just to make them work faster so they could move into their new home early.
