The hunter's husband is so sweet

Chapter 27: Build a Big Brick House

Lin Chen was a little hesitant and didn't know what to say. Qi Xuan didn't force him and asked him to think it over carefully. No matter what, he, Lin Chen, would be Qi Xuan's younger brother in the future.

Lin Chen shook his head, "Brother, I don't mean anything else, I just..." Lin Chen took a deep breath and made up his mind, "Brother, I decided to sell the house to you, but at a normal price, otherwise... otherwise I won't sell it to you."

Qi Xuan poked Lin Chen's head and said, "Whoever gives you more money will not only not give you more, but will also enslave you to work, and will not give you food if you don't do a good job."

Lin Chen was amused. This was the first time he had laughed sincerely in the past few days. He believed that the days ahead would get better and better. Since the decision had been made, they did it right away. Qi Xuan followed Lin Chen home to find the house deed. Fu Jingyi first went to get his own house deed to harness the ox cart. The three of them were going to the town government office in a while to sign the deed first.

After a busy morning, they finally completed a series of procedures including signing the deed, paying the deed tax, and stamping the deed. They also handled the household registration of Qi Xuan and Lin Chen. When they asked Lin Chen if he wanted to change his surname to Qi, Qi Xuan refused. No matter what he was called, Lin Chen was still his brother.

Qi Xuan took the new house deed, while Lin Chen received thirty-five taels from the house sale. The group walked out of the government office happily. Qi Xuan decided to go to the Yingke Building for dinner. There were many reasons for celebration. First, he and Lin Chen were brothers in the household registration; second, they were going to build a new big house; third, Lin Chen got a lot of money.

"So this is a day worth celebrating. Husband, please treat us to a meal." Qi Xuan said to her husband with a smile.

"Okay, I'll treat you." Fu Jingyi was online again. He took Qi Xuan and Lin Chen straight to the Yingke Building. With Qi Xuan's two dishes, the business of Yingke Building was more popular than before. The waiter who was seeing off the guests at the door of the store saw Fu Jingyi and his friends coming, and hurried to greet them. He took the three of them into a private room without saying anything, "Fu Hunter, the shopkeeper has ordered that you can only use this private room next time you come. You sit down first, I'll go call the shopkeeper." After saying that, he ran out.

Shopkeeper Wu, who got the news, also came to the private room and thanked Qi Xuan. His two recipes doubled the business of the Yingkelou, and the way he cooked the venison was also praised by the superiors, who gave him a lot of rewards. Recently, Shopkeeper Wu was in a good mood.

"Hahaha, Brother Fu and my husband, you are my benefactors. I'm treating you today." After saying that, he looked at Lin Chen and asked, "Who is this?"

Qi Xuan hurriedly introduced, "This is my younger brother, Lin Chen, also a little brother." Lin Chen was a little nervous and stood up suddenly.

"Oh, it's the young man from the Lin family. Don't be shy. Come and sit down. I'll have someone bring some cakes and pastries to fill your stomachs. The dishes will be here soon. I'll go and do my thing. Enjoy your meal." Shopkeeper Wu seemed to be very busy. He greeted them and left in a hurry.

"Brother, brother-in-law, you are awesome. The owner of such a big store is so polite to you." Lin Chen initially thought that if they came to such a place to eat, the guys would definitely look down on them as villagers. Unexpectedly, not only did they have a private room, but they also waived the meal fee. His admiration for Qi Xuan and Fu Jingyi deepened.

"It's all thanks to your brother's ability. He has brought a fortune to our family with just two recipes." Fu Jingyi praised his husband generously. This made Lin Chen even more curious, and he pulled Qi Xuan to ask what the dish was. Qi Xuan was about to say something when the dishes came up. He didn't waste any words and pointed at the two dishes, "Here, three fresh vegetables and sweet and sour pork tenderloin, eat quickly."

Lin Chen had never eaten such delicious food before. He ate two bowls of rice even though he had a small appetite. His stomach was full. He wiped off the oil on his mouth and still felt unsatisfied. "Brother, it's so delicious, so delicious! I want to eat it every day!"

Qi Xuan was amused, "I never get tired of eating it every day." Lin Chen shook his head, "It's so delicious, I never get tired of eating it every day."

Even Fu Jingyi was amused. Watching the two brothers getting along, and watching Lin Chen gradually return to his old self, Grandma Lin should rest in peace. "Your brother will get more, not just these two dishes, I will cook them all for you in the future."

After the meal, they packed up the crab roe cakes as usual, but this time they only packed one portion. Lin Chen had already eaten with them, so he only packed one portion for Qi Yue.

A few people were strolling around the street doing nothing, trying to digest their food. Fu Jingyi wanted to go to the brick kiln to take a look. Since they wanted to build a big one, they had to ask workers to measure it so as to calculate how many bricks were needed.

When I arrived at the brick kiln, I found that the guy in charge of measuring was not there today, so I had to leave my address and make an appointment to come the day after tomorrow. Ordinary bricks are 10 wen each, blue bricks are 13 wen, and the best blue bricks are 15 wen. The guy also said that if the quantity is large, there will be a discount.

After leaving the brick kiln, Lin Chen wanted to go to the fabric shop to buy a few handkerchiefs to embroider. Qi Xuan also wanted to make two sets of clothes for Lin Chen, so the three of them went to the fabric shop again.

Lin Chen originally wanted to look at cotton handkerchiefs, but he couldn't resist the waiter's constant recommendation of silk and satin. His hands had become very rough because of long-term rough and heavy work. When the waiter introduced the fabrics, he didn't dare to touch them, for fear of damaging them and having to pay for them. Finally, Qi Xuan waved his hand and bought him a few pieces, and some embroidery thread. He also selected two pieces of cloth for Lin Chen to make clothes. Then he left Fu Jingyi to pay the money and took Lin Chen away.

Afterwards, they went to a jewelry store and bought a hairpin for Lin Chen. Although it was only made of wood, Lin Chen was still very happy. He also took advantage of Qi Xuan and Fu Jingyi's inattention and used the silver he had just received to buy them a silver hairpin and a hairband respectively. He also selected gifts for Wang's aunt and Qi Zheng and Qi Yue.

By the time Qi Xuan found out, it was too late. Lin Chen had already paid the money. "Don't spend it carelessly in the future. This is your dowry money."

Lin Chen knew that they were sincere to him, "Brother, whose little brother has so much dowry? This is my private money. The private money is kept for my family to spend."

Fu Jingyi found a rouge shop, asked the shop assistant, and bought a few cans of oil for the boys to use to wipe their hands and faces. It was another day of great purchases. The few of them drove the ox cart back to the village before the town's curfew was lifted.

They met many villagers along the way, and Qi Xuan did not deliberately hide it, but showed it to them openly. They were going to build a big brick house, so there would be no end to the gossip in the future.

Some of the aunts saw Lin Chen wearing a new hairpin and started gossiping in a sarcastic manner. Qi Xuan happened to hear it and was so angry that he wanted to get off the car to argue with her. Lin Chen held him back and said, "Brother, forget it. Let them talk. There will be a lot of such talk in the future. It's not worth getting angry."

Qi Xuan could only glare at the man fiercely, which frightened the woman so much that she trembled and ran away in shame.
