After eating, I have to rest for a while.

The sun was too fierce, and Chen Liangxian and the other three could not do their work.

Although Ji Yuanhai can work, think about it and don't be so awesome - no master would be so involved in others, let them rest first.

After getting together to drink some water and talk, Ji Yuanhai also learned more about Chenlou Village through Chen Liangxian and the other three.

Speaking of Ji Yuanhai's grandfather, Chen Laowu, who loved his son, the entire Chenlou Village knew about it; Chen Dani and Chen Erni returned to their parents' house to work and help out, and Chen Liangxian also knew about these things.

Chen Liangxian commented on this: "This is not a way to live, what should we do in the future?"

Ji Yuanhai also asked Chen Liangxian, you are already the captain of the production team. It is said that it is easier to record work points than ordinary members and you can earn more. Why are you still willing to work?

Chen Liangxian smiled bitterly: "No matter how much work points you get, the collective money of the brigade is not much, so you won't be able to get much."

"If you work for a year, you only get one or two hundred yuan. When you get it, it's enough money for a whole year. You still have to buy food... Life is not easy..."

"I heard that in the county next door, there is a production team that does a good job, and the members can get three hundred yuan... That's three hundred yuan. Life is much more comfortable. In addition to basic food and drink, there is still a lot of money left!"

Chen Liangxian's words were full of envy.

Ji Yuanhai nodded silently and said nothing.

After resting, I worked again all afternoon.

In the evening, the production team's whistle blew to call it a day. Ji Yuanhai and Chen Liangxian suggested: "Let's stop here today?"

Chen Liang first said: "The sun has gone down and it's cooler than before. Let's work for a while."

Ji Yuanhai said with a smile: "You guys keep working for a while, and I have to prepare food for you."

"It turns out that I was only thinking about preparing lunch, but not dinner."

"No, no!" Chen Liang waved his hand first, "We just want to work for a while, we should go home to eat!"

Having said that, Ji Yuanhai was still going to cook dinner for them.

Just as he was talking, two people walked over in a hurry.

The one in front is Mother Ji Yuanhai, and the one behind is Lu Heling.

As the two approached, Ji Yuanhai's mother suddenly felt surprised: "Brother Liangxian? Why are you here to work?"

Chen Liang first looked at Ji Yuanhai - does your mother know about wages?

Ji Yuanhai coughed and said, "Mom, my uncle is here to help."

Chen Liang understood immediately upon hearing it that he had to hide it.

"Yesterday I saw my eldest nephew coming to our village to look for work. I said you still need to find outsiders? My eldest nephew, I will do this for you."

Ji Yuanhai's mother also nodded when she heard this, and said to Ji Yuanhai: "Your uncle does a good job. People in Chenlou Village also say that he is reliable. Just let him build this house."

Chen Liangxian smiled and said: "If you don't dare to take it seriously, I just come here to help my nephew. There is nothing else."

Ji Yuanhai's mother asked: "Brother Liangxian, how much does it cost to build this house?"

Chen Liangxian smiled awkwardly: "I don't know about this, I'm just here to help."

"You've already excavated the foundation, when are you going to pull out the adobe?" Ji Yuanhai's mother asked again.

Chen Liang said to himself, "It turns out that you didn't even know that the house you built was a red brick house, so I couldn't tell you."

If I tell you, you two will start to make a fuss, and my job will be gone.

If Chen Laowu and Chen Dani knew that Ji Yuanhai had money to build a red brick house, they would probably not be clean.

"I don't know that either..."

Before Chen Liang finished speaking, Ji Yuanhai's mother's face darkened.

Chen Liangxian's ability to build houses is the best in Chenlou Village. He is a very capable person.

He must know how much it costs to build a house and when and what work to do.

But he didn't say that it could only be arranged by Ji Yuanhai in advance.

"Yuan Hai, come here, I have something to tell you!"

The mother's face was solemn and she called Ji Yuanhai aside.

"Let me ask you, how are you going to build this house? How much will it cost?"

"I don't know about that." Ji Yuanhai said, "Lu Heling holds all the money, and he will spend whatever he wants at that time."

"What nonsense are you talking to me about!" the mother said angrily, "You are treating me like a child! You don't know this, how can you still build a house?"

Ji Yuanhai also straightened his face: "Mom, my family is about to be separated. Why are you asking me?"

"You see, my grandparents and my father no longer ask me questions."

"I want to ask what's wrong!" the mother asked back.

Then I just won’t tell you.

Ji Yuanhai thought to himself and changed the topic directly: "Mom, do you have anything else to do?"

"How much salary do you pay him?" Mother asked again.

Ji Yuanhai replied: "It's not open."

"No? No salary, why should he help you?" Mother was surprised, "Just because you are my son? He doesn't usually help your grandpa's house!"

"Can anyone help?"

Ji Yuanhai said directly: "Mom, if you really have nothing else to do, I can help you find something."

His mother didn't like him and spoke angrily: "Are you telling me that I'm looking for trouble?"

"My brother-in-law's wedding is a big event. Is it called looking for trouble?" Ji Yuanhai asked.

Mother suddenly became energetic: "Is your brother-in-law getting married? Do you have a suitable introduction to your brother-in-law?"

"If you really have it, don't hide it from me!"

Ji Yuanhai actually had a draft of this matter in his mind, but now he was just talking about it.

"I really don't have a suitable marriage partner. I just want to help discuss it."

"You said that my brother-in-law is definitely not going to be able to work in his current situation. His face is paler than a woman who wears powder, and his belly is bigger than that of a pregnant woman. This is not his destiny to work."

"In my opinion, I must find a woman who is capable of working and laboring, with a big body and a round waist. When the time comes, she will work to earn work points and support my brother-in-law."

"Mom, do you think this is right?"

Ji Yuanhai's mother thought for a while and nodded: "What you said is somewhat conscientious, and you are right."

"Your brother-in-law is good at everything, but he has been weak since he was a child and has been unable to work. It is indeed a good thing to marry a woman who is down-to-earth and willing to work."

Everything is good? Feeling weak?

Okay, okay, I can barely say what you said is true.

Why should a woman marry someone else and work like a cow to support a man who only eats and doesn't work? Just because my uncle is passing on a single seedling?

Ji Yuanhai suppressed the curse in his heart and continued: "Mom, you can ask around when you have time. Whose daughter is energetic at work, strong and has a thick waist? It would be right to introduce her to my uncle."

Ji Yuanhai's mother nodded, indicating that she remembered.

Ji Yuanhai added: "Also, mother, do you know there is a trick for finding a wife for a man now?"

"What's the trick?" Mother asked.

"That is to show that your family is blessed and you will be able to live a good life in the future." Ji Yuanhai said.

"Blessed? How do you show it?" Mother asked in confusion.

Ji Yuanhai patiently explained to her: "Whether you are lucky or not depends on whose house 'Grandma Mai Wang' stays for a long time... Mom, just tell people this, and it should be fine."
