My Gentleman Reborn

Chapter 18 Want to Build a House

In Zhao's family, He Yuzhou did not leave in a hurry, but took the sweet potato tart to tease Zhao Xiaoqing in a good mood.

Zhao Xiaoqing gave He Yuzhou a lot of face this time, and acted very surprised, holding the dim sum as if he was reluctant to eat it, and his eyes widened after he took a small bite.

He Yuzhou finally swept away the depression from last time, and watched Zhao Xiaoqing eat in small bites in a good mood.

Zhao Yi laughed while watching from the side.

Aunt Zhao entertained He Yuzhou with tea and snacks. Last time, he didn't have any delicious snacks, but this time He Yuzhou tried them all.

They are all ordinary snacks, peanuts, melon seeds and candies.

The tea seems to be ordinary farm tea, but there seem to be few tea trees in the village.

He Yuzhou drank a few sips, looked at the door and asked with some doubts: "Uncle Yi, did you buy this tea? I don't think I have seen any tea trees in the village?"

"Oh, this!" Zhao Yixiao said with some embarrassment: "I picked this tea from the mountain. Our village doesn't grow tea, and few people drink tea. Drinking tea is my bad habit, but Tea is expensive outside, so I went to the mountain to find some and roasted it by myself, so as to relieve my greed.”

After speaking, Zhao Yi said again: "It's a pity that my roasting skills are only enough to try it myself, and I can't sell it. Otherwise, one or two ordinary tea leaves are worth one or two silver."

Zhao Yi seemed to be implying something, but He Yuzhou didn't answer.

Zhao Yi thought about the tea set she bought last time, looked at her but couldn't hold back and said, "Xiao Zhou, if you know how to make tea, you can try it."

He Yuzhou was taken aback, then laughed and said, "Uncle Yi, do you really think I can do everything? I don't know how to bake this tea."

"So..." Zhao Yi was a little disappointed when he heard that, and He Yuzhou smiled and said, "But I'm pretty good at making tea, although it's rather strange."

"Strange?" Zhao Yi became a little interested: "How strange?"

"This..." He Yuzhou couldn't tell why, so he had no choice but to say: "Otherwise, when Uncle Yi has time to take me up the mountain, I'll go find some 'tea' and give Uncle Yi a try."

"...This...is very good!" Zhao Yi seemed very happy.

Seeing this, He Yuzhou said rather embarrassedly: "Actually, I came this time to discuss something with my uncle."

"?" Zhao Yi looked at He Yuzhou suspiciously, and He Yuzhou lowered his head in embarrassment and said, "That... Actually, uncle, I really want to build a house."

Zhao Yi was taken aback, put down his teacup, looked at He Yuzhou, He Yuzhou said: "I have my eye on a piece of land, there is a bamboo forest not far from the mouth of the river, beyond the bamboo forest is a mountain, outside the bamboo forest there is a large open space, there is The path leads outside, and I want to build the house there."

Zhao Yi frowned: "It's a bit far away from people's homes, and it's close to the mountains. Xiaozhou, a girl like you, might be in danger if you live in a place like that."

"It's not scary, I'll just build a wall outside." He Yuzhou said.

Zhao Yixiao: "It seems that Xiaozhou has already made up his mind."

He Yuzhou nodded resolutely: "I want to settle down so much. Only with my own home can I live in peace of mind."

Zhao Yi sighed: "That's true."

He Yuzhou said: "But I don't know the land price here, and I don't know the price of the building materials needed to build a house..."

"You have to ask the village chief about the price of the land." Aunt Zhao who had been by the side interrupted.

Zhao Yi answered quickly: "Uncle Yi can contact you for building materials and the like, but Xiaozhou, you'd better wait another month for the start of construction, since everyone is in the busy season of farming, I'm afraid you won't be able to find someone to build the house , and, Xiaozhou's money should not be enough, right?"

He Yuzhou nodded in embarrassment: "This is what I want to ask Uncle Zhao..."

Zhao Yi smiled lightly: "Come on, I understand Xiaozhou's meaning, so how about it, if you want money for building materials like building a house, don't worry, Uncle Zhao Yi will pay you first."

"...!" He Yuzhou didn't expect Zhao Yi to agree so readily, stood up excitedly, bowed deeply to Zhao Yi and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhao!"

"Xiaozhou get up quickly, there's no need to make such a big gift, you just go and get busy collecting land and labor money, don't worry about building materials."

"Thank you!" He Yuzhou's nose was slightly pantothenic.

Zhao Yi sighed, looking at He Yuzhou with loving eyes.

After being reminded by Aunt Zhao, He Yuzhou returned home and took a bowl of braised pork and went to the village chief's house.

This was the first time that He Yuzhou came to the village head's house after he lived here. The village head's house was a little far away from him, and it was in the village, so he would not meet them when he went out of the village.

This is He Yuzhou's first visit.

It was getting late at this time, and it was time for dinner. When He Yuzhou went there with a bowl of oily braised pork, the village chief's family was eating.

There are as many as seven people.

In addition to the village head and his wife, there are two men and three women.

He Yuzhou was a little embarrassed outside the courtyard with braised pork.

When the village chief and his wife saw him, they hurriedly welcomed him in.

The others looked at him suspiciously, and the village chief introduced, "This is the girl He Yuzhou who moved to our village a few days ago."

"Girl? Why are you wearing men's clothing?" A woman frowned and looked at He Yuzhou in disgust.

"Even though it's men's clothing, I won't admit my mistake, so please stop talking." A man next to him scolded.

The village head scratched his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "Don't worry, this is my little daughter Congli, the one who spoke just now was my eldest son Congdi, and this is my second son Cong Erchi, these two are my daughter. Daughter-in-law."

"Hello." He Yuzhou greeted them one by one.

Passed the braised pork to the village chief and said, "Village chief, I bought some meat today and brought it for you to taste."

The village head smiled kindly: "You child, you can't live well by yourself, why do you still miss us."

As he spoke, he wanted to push the braised pork back, but the old woman next to him hurriedly got up to take it and said, "This Xiaohe has a heart, how can I not take it."

With that said, he picked up the braised pork and placed it on the table.

The village chief was stunned for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly: "Otherwise Xiaozhou will come and eat together, and my wife will set up more bowls and chopsticks."

"Crack!" With a loud noise, Cong Li put his chopsticks heavily on the table, and said with displeasure in his eyes: "I don't want to eat with this disgusting guy in men's clothing!"

"..." He Yuzhou was silent, he didn't seem to come at the right time.

There was silence in the room, and finally the grey-haired wife of the village chief spoke. She smiled with wrinkled face, and said lovingly: "Xiaohe, my daughter is innocent and ignorant. Don't worry too much if you are unobstructed."

The woman spoke calmly, and casually dismissed Cong Li's rudeness.
