Chapter 53 The House
The son who is as clear as jade has a serious tone and an even more serious expression.

Du's mother was stunned by the question, and she looked at Yu Zhizhou at a loss, not wanting that Yu Zhizhou had a more surprised expression than her, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

"I ask you what is the name of the girl in red who is singing today?"

Not getting an answer, Mr. Fei frowned and asked again.

"She said her name was Du Shiniang."

To be invited by Xu Zhizhou must be a distinguished guest, Mother Du did not dare to offend, she thought about it and said cautiously.

She didn't know if it was true or not, anyway, that's what the girl said.

Sure enough, he heard correctly, Mr. Fei frowned even deeper.

Ah Li didn't hear clearly just now, but now he was surprised when he heard the word Du Shiniang.

After the farewell on the boat that day, there was no news of Ms. Du, did she actually become a singer in the Land of Love and Moon?

"Where is she now?" Mr. Fei asked suddenly.

"Sub-banquet."

Zhizhou wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Mr. Fei, who looked at Mama Du, "She often comes here to perform music?"

"No no."

Mother Du didn't know what went wrong, and she was a little nervous, "This is the first time I've seen her, but she said she will come again."

Sitting in the carriage, Zu Zhizhou kept looking at Young Master Fei, "Zi Yan knows that woman?" He asked meaningfully.

Mr. Fei nodded, and said after a while:

"Yuanzhi, help me check someone."

After returning home, when Xu Zhizhou's carriage left, Ah Li also looked dignified and puzzled.

"My lord, how did Ms. Du end up here? At the beginning, she said that she remembered something and planned to seek refuge with her trusted relatives. Could it be that the relatives treated her harshly?"

"I can't rule out this possibility," Mr. Fei said, "Since we met, we can't ignore it, you go to Xianqulou to do some sorting, and then wait for good news from Yuanzhi."

Ah Li should have done so, and went out after serving the young master to change his clothes.

Just after walking out of the yard, Mama Gu, who was serving the young lady's food and clothing, came up to her, "Housekeeper Li, the young lady has already gone to bed, and I told you that there is no need to prepare tomorrow's lunch."

"understood"

A Li waved his hand, "Young lady's favorite snacks, let's prepare some."

Mama Gu glanced at Ah Li, but hesitated to speak.

"what happened?"

Ah Li paused as he was about to leave, turned around and came back to ask.

"Housekeeper Li, did the old slave do something wrong to make the young lady angry? Otherwise, why did you ask the housekeeper to prepare lunch a few days ago, and you won't let me do it these days."

Ali smiled and waved his hands.

"It's not that you did anything wrong, the little lady said that she missed the taste of eating when she was a child"

Is that right?Mama Gu's expression became even weirder.

The cook who was invited by the young master two years ago, was favored by the young lady because she loved her food. The young lady secretly said that the food made by Uncle A Li was really unpalatable. Will you miss it?
After he finished singing, Bai Fu slipped away. Naturally, he didn't know what happened afterwards. After returning home and washing up, he fell asleep contentedly.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Bai Fu took Xiao Liang's car to Xiaoxi Village, first went to the field to check the renovation situation, and then took Xiao Si'er to the land where the house was planned to be built.

Several villagers were tidying up the corners when they saw Bai Fu stop his hands and salute cautiously.

"The son is here!"

"Sir, do you think this is appropriate?"

"My lord, just tell me what you want."

Bai Fu signaled them to be busy, and took out a soft ruler to measure the size under the surprised eyes of the villagers.

"Is the young master planning to design the house himself?"

Xiao Si'er cleverly took the other end of the soft ruler, stood at the spot designated by Bai Fu, and measured the land section by section.

Bai Fu squatted down to look at the numbers, then wrote and drew on the paper, while answering:
"How can I be so capable, I just want to give a general idea, and I need to discuss it with the craftsman."

Little Four oh oh nodded.

Bai Fu finished measuring here, and Shen Sanjin led the craftsmen there.

"You chose a good place here"

As soon as Shen Sanjin came, he picked up nice compliments, and Bai Fu raised his eyebrows.

"Oh? Brother Sanjin, tell me how to do it well?" she asked.

Shen Sanjin smiled and looked around in a decent manner. As expected of a veteran, he immediately said:
"Look, this land is surrounded by mountains and rivers, low at the front and high at the back. First of all, it is a rare place to gather wealth from the perspective of feng shui. Looking at the back, the mountain is gentle and rocky, not easy to landslide. It is located in the upper reaches of the water source, so it is not easy polluted."

Shen Sanjin said a lot without changing his face, Bai Fu was very satisfied, and asked with a smile:

"Then after it's finished, Sanjin, do you think it can be sold for a lot of money?"

Shen Sanjin chuckled.

"That depends on how you build it." He turned around and introduced the craftsman, "Old Li, this is Mr. Bai, and they are all from our own family. You can give us a real price."

Looking at Bai Fu again:

"Old Uncle Li is a distant relative of my maternal grandfather's family. He started building houses very early. Although it is not one of the best big workshops in Bailu Town, his Li's workshop is good at building houses like yours, and the price is fair. Feel free to use it."

Bai Fu just liked Shen Sanjin's shrewd, capable and unambiguous energy.

"Hello, Uncle Li." She nodded and said hello.

Old Uncle Li was in his forties, wearing a simple robe, with a dark complexion, and looked quite friendly.

Uncle Li returned the gift and asked politely, "How does Mr. Bai want to build it?"

Bai Fu handed over the blueprint that had just been measured, took out another piece of paper, and drew on it while explaining his thoughts.

"Because the ground dragon and fire wall are to be built, it is best to use brick and tile structures—"

“There should be more windows to ensure ventilation”

"Wallpaper is going to be used on the interior walls of the bedroom, and the surface of the masonry in the early stage should be as smooth and flat as possible"

"The internal structure does not need to be too complicated, as long as the square is clean and tidy, here, here, there should be reserved space for built-in furniture"

Lao Li was a little silent after listening.

"My lord, if the structure is mainly made of bricks and tiles, the price may not be suitable." Old Li Shicheng said.

Bai Fu said he knew.

This Xiaoxi village is mostly thatched houses, and the village chief's house is better with adobe brick houses. The town only uses wood and bricks to build houses, and what she wants to build is a pure brick structure, and the cost must not be cheap.

It's not that she doesn't want to use more wood to save money, but that the ancient winter is too cold, if she wants to make fire walls and earth dragons, she can only use brick and tile structures, otherwise the winter will be too difficult.

"You first estimate the price for me according to this idea, and then I will see how to change it."

Old Uncle Li nodded and took the blueprint, checked around the foundation, and confirmed some details before leaving.

"Master Bai wants to repair the house and sell it for money?" Shen Sanjin asked curiously after seeing off Lao Li.

Bai Fu smiled, "Temporarily built to live in, there is a lot of vacant land next to it, and it will be gradually expanded in the future, and sold as soon as it can be sold, and then I will ask Brother Sanjin for your help."

Shen Sanjin naturally agreed.

Bai Fu asked some more about the procedures for building a house, and then took out the money and gave it to him.

Shen Sanjin didn't answer this time, just smiled.

"Brother Bai, we know each other so well, how can you pay for such a small favor." He said generously.

Bai Fu raised his eyebrows, not quite believing——
Brother, when have you ever struggled with collecting my money for a small favor?

Seeing Bai Fu's expression, Shen Sanjin was a little embarrassed.

"that"

He hesitated and said, "There is no need for money, just give me a copy of the popcorn you have in Detiange, my wife loves it."

Bai Fu was stunned, and immediately said that there was no problem, and he would send it when he went back.
