There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 166 Inquiring About One Thing (One More)
At night, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng were lying on the bed, chatting before going to bed every day.

Luo Cheng talked about the things in the field, "Pick up some water tomorrow morning, and we can sow rice seeds in the afternoon. Winter melon seedlings, cucumber seedlings, and melon seedlings are big and germinate quickly. I have already transplanted all of them. Cabbage The buds of the seeds have grown, but they are too small. If you transplant them now, it may not be easy to survive, so let them grow again."

When it comes to transplanting vegetable seedlings, Li Jiaoniang planned to do it herself.

She had only planted flowers in her previous life, and was very yearning for planting flowers and plants. Now that she has traveled through time, she finally has the opportunity to fight in person, but Luo Cheng has finished it.

She sighed and said, "Why have you done everything? I should do such a small thing as planting vegetable seedlings."

Luo Cheng glanced at her lightly, "Aren't you feeling unwell?"

"How can it be so delicate?" Li Jiaoniang laughed.

"I'm idle anyway." Luo Cheng said.

Li Jiaoniang smiled, this man thinks of everything for her.

She thought of one thing, and said, "After paying off part of the debt today, I still have two yuan of money on hand. Let's find time to repair this house? I asked the people in the village, and they told me how many people The masons and carpenters here are very good. Shall we go talk to those people? Let them arrange their time."

Luo Cheng didn't object, "Well, it's time for the house to be repaired. I'll ask the craftsmen tomorrow."

He looked up at the roof, the house was 20 years old.

Li Jiaoniang was not feeling well today, and after talking, she yawned a few times, turned over and fell asleep.

Luo Cheng looked at her for a while, then quietly got out of bed.

He dragged out the wooden box containing the old books under the bed, moved them to the outside room, lit the oil lamp and looked through them.

There are a few books that were painted by Luo Fucai's son, and they are all poetry and story books, which Li Jiaoniang loves to read, but they are not important to him.

What he cares most about is a map of the capital city.

20 years have passed, and this picture is still clear.

Grandpa told him that when he was 20 years old, he must go there.

But today's Bianliang, the capital city, has already fallen into the hands of Jinren, so where can we take a walk easily?
Besides, what about going there?
His mother is dead, and all the members of his grandfather's family are also dead.

There are no relatives there, just a city of sorrow.

……

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Luo Cheng went to find the villagers in the village who knew how to do bricklayers and carpentry.

Li Jiaoniang rode a donkey to the brick kiln at the junction of the two villages.

How many tiles and bricks are needed? She and Luo Cheng had discussed it early in the morning.

When the kiln owner saw her coming, he knew it was business and immediately greeted her with a smile.

Li Jiaoniang took out the written numbers, "The quantity I want is written on it, let me see, how long will it take to ship the goods? I am in a hurry."

"It's mainly tiles, and a small amount of bricks." The brick kiln owner thought for a while, "Three days, you will receive the goods in three days. As for the price, I have always paid this price here, and it has always been fair. If you want more, I will deliver it when the time comes." You get 20 yuan bricks."

The price is within her budget, not more than two pennies, but the time is a bit slow.

"Could you hurry up, the rainy season is here, I have to renovate the old house before the rainy season." Li Jiaoniang urged.

The owner of the brick kiln stretched out his hand and scratched his head, "It's already very fast, I'm also rushing to rush the goods, if it is rainy, my bricks and tiles can't be made yet. Otherwise, if you are really in a hurry, take some old ones first. use?"

"Will the price be cheaper?" Li Jiaoniang also saw his second-hand goods and asked.

The color of bricks and tiles is batch by batch. Different soils, different batches of firing, and different fires will have different colors.

Some people are particular and like all bricks and tiles.

She and Luo Cheng don't care, as long as the bricks and tiles are good and the house won't leak after using them.

It has been sunny for more than half a month, and it is summer again. The rain will definitely come fiercely, and the house will collapse if it is not repaired.

The brick kiln owner frowned and thought for a while, then said, "Sure, then I'll give you [-]% of the price."

"Sixty percent, your fragmented tiles are of different sizes and colors, and you can leave them alone, so you can sell them to me at a lower price." Li Jiaoniang bargained, "Sell them earlier, and collect the cost earlier. .”

There are three kinds of Nawa, a large red tile, a medium-sized cyan tile, and a small black tile.

The brick kiln owner convinced her, "Cheng Chengcheng, let me give it to you."

Li Jiaoniang said, "I've brought the money now. The master's house has packed the car and sent it to my house. I live in Jinshan Village."

The brick kiln owner was upset, "Do you still want me to deliver it? You don't have a car?"

"I just rode a donkey. Where did I get the car? If you don't give it away, then I'll borrow a car when I go back?" Li Jiaoniang patted the donkey's back and turned to go back.

The brick kiln owner was worried that after she returned home, after discussing with her family, he would have to put the second-hand goods away again.

You know, it's been a year.

He immediately called to her, "All right, all right, little lady, wait a moment. I'll ask someone to load your car and deliver the goods right away."

"Okay, master, you are straightforward in your work." Where is Li Jiaoniang leaving?She used the aggressive method.

If you buy hundreds of tiles from him, you won’t even give them away. It’s too brainy to do business.

After the tiles were counted, Li Jiaoniang paid the money.

She rode ahead on a donkey, and the nephew of the owner of the brick kiln followed behind her, driving Lawa's ox cart.

When he got home, Luo Cheng couldn't help complaining, "Why didn't you rest at home and ran out again."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "I rode a donkey and walked around without any effort."

Luo Cheng saw a cart full of tiles and asked in surprise, "Have you gone to buy tiles?"

Li Jiaoniang said, "This is a second-hand product. The brick kiln owner sold it to me at a low price. Looking at the weather, there will be heavy rain soon. The house needs to be renovated earlier. The new tiles will come out in three days, so I bought it first." Use some old ones."

Luo Cheng helped her off the donkey's back, "Go back to the house and rest, I'll move the tiles."

Li Jiaoniang was inconvenient today, so she didn't force herself and said, "Okay."

It's just that, she was about to walk into the courtyard when someone called her from behind.

"Eldest niece?"

Hearing the sound, Li Jiaoniang's expression immediately darkened.

It's this lingering guy again, the gambler is really difficult to deal with!
She had no choice but to turn around and said with a smirk, "It's Uncle Six, Uncle Six, what's the matter?"

Luo Fucai waved the white paper folding fan, smiled at Luo Cheng who was moving the tiles, "Luo Cheng, let me say a few words to your wife, you are busy with your work."

Luo Cheng said with a cold face, "Jiao Niang is busy too."

Li Jiaoniang turned her eyes and said to Luo Fucai, "Yes, I'm busy. Look, so many tiles are going to be moved into the courtyard. I don't have time to talk now."

As she said that, she walked back and rolled up her sleeves to move the tiles.

When her sunflower water was coming fiercely, she didn't dare to use too much force, she just moved a piece of red tile and walked slowly into the courtyard.

After walking a few steps, he looked back at Luo Fucai, "If Uncle Six is ​​in a hurry, why don't you help me remove the tiles? Brother Luo Cheng's waist is sprained and he can't use his strength. I sprained my ankle and walk slowly."

Luo Cheng glanced at him, "..." His waist is obviously in good shape.

Luo Fucai looked at the two of them, and shook his head, "I said you two young people, don't be careful when you do things. You have to get out of the way, and I will move it for you."

Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Sixth Uncle has worked hard." Then she said to Luo Cheng, "Don't move more, your waist is bad, don't be brave."

Luo Cheng, "..."

Luo Fucai was tall and strong, and he was in a hurry to ask Li Jiaoniang, so he worked very hard to lift the tiles, running faster than Luo Cheng.

Seeing the little boy who delivered the tiles, he was dumbfounded.

Luo Fucai's reputation is very good, the entire Yushan Village, most of the people in Jinshan Village, who doesn't know him?
"It's weird." The boy rubbed the back of his head and muttered to himself, "Luo Fucai, the gambling ghost, actually works so hard? I used to hate sweeping the floor."

With Luo Fucai's help, the carload of tiles was quickly moved.

The boy drove the ox cart away, and Luo Cheng cleaned the yard.

Luo Fucai led Li Jiaoniang to the corner of the courtyard to talk, and he asked in a low voice, "Niece, I heard that your family has a rich relative? The one who came to see you in a carriage yesterday? Where are they getting rich now?" ah?"

Li Jiaoniang narrowed her eyes, this Luo Fucai, what is his plan?

"It's not a relative, they recognized the wrong person." Li Jiaoniang shook her head, "I just look like a niece of their family, I don't know them."

Luo Fucai was not disappointed, and continued, "My niece, you just tell me where they live now, don't worry about anything else."

Li Jiaoniang thought, can she ignore it?
That was the Li family, a ruthless family that she didn't want to have any contact with at all.
