I have a mall space system, raise the baby first and then fight

Li Xinghe was as surprised as a child who received a gift.

Shen Lianxin had long discovered that Li Xinghe's moon-white robe had been washed so much that it looked worn out, and that he wore the same one every time they met, proving that he had no clothes to change into.

The clothes were not only clean and tidy, but also so old that they were almost without patches.

Of course, Shen Lianxin didn't prepare it specially for him. She just bought it when she was choosing clothes for a few children in the mall when she entered the room.

"Well, it's getting late. Go and accompany your classmates, and then go back to the academy early."

Li Xinghe packed his things into the backpack given by Shen Lianxin and prepared to leave.

"Sister, our teacher said that there is a war in the north, and the people in some border towns are living in poverty. Soon there may be a large number of refugees fleeing to the capital, and our Yuncheng is among them."

Shen Lianxin was slightly shocked. Yuncheng was not too far from the northern border. If a war broke out in the north, Yuncheng would be greatly affected.

"understood."

Li Xinghe left. Shen Lianxin felt uneasy. Although the war was at the border and Yuncheng would not be affected for a while, she felt inexplicably irritated when she heard the word "Northern Frontier".

Time flies, and after nearly two months, Shen Lianxin's big house was finally built.

Still riding in Huang Bo's ox cart, Shen Lianxin took Gu Chengzhen back to Yunshan Village.

Uncle Huang greeted with a smile, "Hey, from the hunter family. It's been a long time since we last met. I heard that you made a lot of money in the city, so I thought you wouldn't return to Yunshan Village."

Shen Lianxin handed over two copper coins and took Gu Chengzhen to sit on the ox cart.

"How could that be? Yunshan Village is my root. I have to go home someday!"

Shen Lianxin did not deny that she made money. After all, the villagers would know sooner or later. She built such a big house, and no one would believe her if she said she didn't make money.

People are like this. When you live better than him, he will be jealous of you, criticize you in every way and go against you. But when you are much better than him, to the point where he is far behind, he will not be jealous of you, but envy and admire you.

Just like people envy others, but look up to and worship God.

Shen Lianxin wanted to live in a big house, live a good life, and return to Yunshan Village, so naturally she was not afraid of people knowing that she made money.

Gu Chengzhen held the candied haws in his hand and ate it with relish.

A bright smile was on the little face.

"I can finally go home, Mom. I want to go home so much."

When Gu Chengzhen heard that a big house was built at home, she became extremely excited.

After being out for so long, it’s time to go back.

Shen Lianxin touched her head and said, "Eat quickly. Grandpa Huang will be driving the car soon and you can't eat."

The ox cart was shaking, and Shen Lianxin was afraid that the sticks would prick her.

Gu Chengzhen nodded and sped up the movement of her mouth, taking bites quickly left and right, which made Shen Lianxin happy to see.

After a while, everyone arrived.

The aunt from the same village couldn't hide her jealousy when she saw Shen Lianxin.

"Hey, you are a rare guest from the hunter family. They say you have made a fortune out there and won't come back to our Yunshan Village."

"How can I not go back? Haven't you seen the big house built on the land at the village head? It's so beautiful, it belongs to the hunter."

"Yes, it is so magnificent. I think it is no worse than the mansions of the masters in this city. How much silver did the hunter family earn?"

Shen Lianxin smiled without saying anything. Some of these words contained envy and jealousy, while others contained sarcasm. Shen Lianxin didn't want to pay attention to them.

The ride was bumpy and Shen Lianxin's butt was numb.

Finally returned to Yunshan Village.

The two shaky little thatched houses were transformed into a majestic mansion. Hanging at the door was an antique wooden carved plaque with two large characters on it: Shen's Residence.

Shen Lianxin was very emotional. From the time she got here, she was so poor that she couldn't even afford rice. But in less than a year, she finally had a big house of her own.

When Zhang Gong saw Shen Lianxin coming back, he wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"Madam Shen, how is it? Isn't this mansion magnificent? But is it what you imagined in your mind?"

Shen Lianxin took Gu Chengzhen for a tour inside and outside the house and nodded with satisfaction, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your care. This house is just what I wanted."

Then, Shen Lianxin paid the remaining 60 taels of silver.

Engineer Zhang happily took over. The work was basically done, with only some finishing touches left. Engineer Zhang contacted someone to help Shen Lianxin with the decoration of the house. After the house was ready, Shen Lianxin came back to inspect it.

He paid Zhang Gong 10 taels of silver more and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Give the brothers some tea."

Mr. Zhang wanted to refuse, but half-heartedly put the silver into his pocket happily.

"Ms. Shen, you are too polite. If you need any work in the future, remember to look for me. The money is easy to talk about, and I guarantee you will be satisfied with the work."

Shen Lianxin nodded. This job is well-known far and wide. The fee is not low, but the work is definitely good. Shen Lianxin is not particularly knowledgeable about construction. It doesn't matter if she spends a little more money, but the quality must be up to standard.

The final handover was completed. Zhang Gong led his men out of the mansion.

There were only Shen Lianxin and Gu Chengzhen in the huge courtyard. Shen Lianxin suddenly missed having a few children. It would be so lively if the whole family was together.

While I was in a daze, I heard someone knocking on the door, "Is Lianxin back?"

Shen Lianxin hurriedly opened the door and saw Aunt Zhang, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, grinning with joy.

"Hey! It's really you. I said I heard some noise and saw you coming back."

"Osmanthus is here, come in quickly."

This is Shen Lianxin's only good friend in this village. She is very happy to meet him again after a long separation.

Xu Guihua punched Shen Lianxin twice, "Damn you, you haven't come back for such a long time. If I hadn't seen you building this big house, I would have thought you would never come back!"

Seeing Xu Guihua like this, Shen Lianxin quickly pulled her to sit down, "How can that be possible? Yunshan Village is my root. Where can I go if I don't come back? Besides, even if I want to leave, I will let you know."

Xu Guihua rolled her eyes at her and said, "You have a conscience."

Shen Lianxin pretended to take out a plate of snacks and a plate of melon seeds from the kitchen, and boiled water to make a pot of good tea.

"Don't leave today, eat here. Let's chat and I'll cook later."

Xu Guihua was also happy. "Then I won't be polite to you. Look at this big house. It's so grand. I have never lived in such a big and nice house in my life."

Shen Lianxin laughed, "Then I'll stay here today."

"Live here? No, no, no, I can't. I don't deserve such a big house."

"What's the point of being worthy or not? Houses are for people to live in. This house is mine, and you are my good sister. If I say you can live in it, you can live in it."

Xu Guihua scratched her head sheepishly and said with a smile, "Okay, then we'll stay here for a night. Thanks to you, otherwise I would never be able to live in such a big house in my lifetime. I'll just enjoy it today."

As they chatted, the two laughed heartily. The brief estrangement caused by not seeing each other for many days and Shen Lianxin's success was diluted in the waves of laughter.
