Chapter 258 There is strength in numbers

There are only twenty taels left.

If he spends it all, how can he make a profit?

Bai Jizu refused directly.

Besides, his body couldn't bear it anymore.

Mei'er is very clingy.

He was very weak.

I couldn't stand staying for three nights.

"Humph, you don't love me. I'm afraid everything you said to Mei'er last night was all false."

Mei'er turned around and acted in a bad mood.

"Good Mei'er, when I make enough money, I will be with you for a year. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to do it this time."

Bai Jizu finished the wine in his glass, picked up Mei'er and walked towards the bed.

As the curtains dropped.

The sky outside was also getting dark.

The scene changes.

Jiang Fubao has returned to the village. On the village roads, he can meet many villagers who are out for a stroll after dinner. Today his grandfather went to the shop to help out, so when the villagers saw him, they all greeted him with great enthusiasm.

In the past, these people were considered friendly if they didn’t roll their eyes at my grandfather.

Jiang Fubao knew what was going on.

She watched her grandfather chat with the villagers with a fake smile on his face, and then let her father drive away.

"Grandma, look, there are so many people at our door." Jiang Fubao has the sharpest eyes and can see everything clearly even though it is dark.

She pointed in the direction of her home and spoke to grandma.

"Hey, why are there so many people here? What are they doing?"

Zhang Jinlan looked in the direction her granddaughter's finger was pointing, and saw at least seven or eight people gathered outside her house, including her own sons Yahe and Eryong, as well as Ma Chunxia and Wang Taohua's sons.

I returned home feeling puzzled.

Niu Niu stopped and they got off the ox cart. Only then did they see Jiang Zi Chong from Wang Xiu Lian's family standing in the crowd.

"Aunt, uncle, you're back. The house has been built and we can move in today."

Jiang Liwen, who was sitting on a rock to rest, saw the Jiang family coming back. He stood up, wiping the sweat off his face and said.

"Oh, you all came to help? The wooden house was built so quickly? You are really capable. I hope you didn't get tired. So, you all come to my house for dinner tonight. Auntie will cook for you personally."

The moon had come out and was shining on them.

Although it is not as hot as during the day, the evening breeze still carries the residual heat of the day and does not feel cool at all when it blows on the face.

They were sweating profusely while building a wooden house for their family. Zhang Jinlan felt a little guilty about this and was ready to go into the kitchen to cook.

"No, no, no, Auntie, we have already eaten. Now that the house is built, we will go back first. There are still things waiting for us to do at home."

After Jiang Liwen finished speaking, the others nodded and left together.

The speed was so fast that Zhang Jinlan couldn't stop it.

She reached out and grabbed Jiang Zichong, who was walking at the end, and asked in confusion: "I can understand that Liwen and the others came, but weren't you washing dishes in town? Why are you here too? Could it be that... you didn't go to town today?"

"The shopkeeper said that it was very hot these days and I worked hard, so he rewarded me with a day off. When I came to chat with Brother Eryong, I found that he was building a house, so I helped him."

Jiang Zichong said honestly.

"No wonder, I was wondering why you didn't go today, Zi Chong, don't blame your aunt for nagging, since you're going, just work hard, your boss is a good man, Er Yong mentioned to me that as long as you work hard and don't make mistakes, he won't drive you away, the situation is not good now, it's good enough to make some money.

Your mother is confused, don't be like her, you are already this age, there are some things you should listen to, and some things you should not listen to, and don't learn from your brother who has high expectations but low skills, save more money, you never know when the food prices will rise and you won't be able to afford it, with money on your side, you will have confidence, okay, since you don't want to stay for dinner, then go back early."

In Wang Xiulian's family, Jiang Zichong is the only one she likes.

This child has been well-behaved since he was young, and he is also loyal and hardworking. If he hadn't been burdened by his family, he wouldn't have gone hungry.

Life will definitely be much better after the separation.

But after all, this is someone else's family affair, she has no right to interfere, and can only say a few words indirectly.

"Well, Auntie, I know it all. If it weren't for Brother Eryong's help, I'm afraid I wouldn't have gotten the job of washing dishes. Now there are more and more people looking for work in the town. Every time I go to the town, I can see a large group of people sleeping outside the city gate, just to get in and find work the moment the city gate opens.

Life is difficult. I just wash dishes. It's easy. The shopkeeper treats me well. He allows me to bring food and always lets me rest. I know who treats me well. Auntie, I will go back first. If you have work to do at home, please come to my house to find me. I will usually be home before dark. I will be there as soon as you call me."

Hearing Zhang Jinlan's advice, Jiang Zichong nodded obediently.

In fact, he is very satisfied with his current life.

Every day when he came back from town, he would bring some leftovers, so the food at home became better and better.

His two children have gained weight on their faces due to eating so much.

The family's income now depends entirely on him, and his parents dare not openly get angry with his wife and children.

It’s much better than before.

He was content.

All of this was given to him by the Jiang family.

He couldn't be more grateful.

"There is not so much work to do. Go back and have some rest. You have to go to town tomorrow, so don't go so early. So, you can go with our ox cart tomorrow. You won't be too much."

This was the first time that Zhang Jinlan took the initiative to invite someone to ride in a ox cart.

Jiang Zichong wanted to refuse, but he saw Jiang Eryong wink at him.

I can only agree.

"Thank you, auntie. I'll wait for you at the entrance of the village tomorrow."

"Okay, go back." Zhang Jinlan smiled and waved her hand.

Wait until people leave.

She didn't have time to enter the yard, so she took two servants to the bridal chamber.

It's said to be a new house.

It's just a simple house built with wooden boards.

There are only two.

One room is for living, and the other is a mixture of a toilet and a storage room.

There are large gaps between the wooden boards and they are roughly made, but they look quite solid.

The freshly cut wood is not completely dried, but with the sun being so strong, it is not likely to get moldy.

After all, you're just staying there temporarily, so there's no need to make it so nice.

"You two, just sleep on one bed. This bed looks pretty big. After dinner, I'll find you some bedding. You can use it as a cushion or as a cover."

Due to time constraints, the wooden bed was not polished carefully and there are still rough edges on it.

If I lie down directly, I'm afraid I'll turn over in my sleep and cut my arm.

Zhang Jinlan is not that kind of evil person.

The old bedding at home came in handy.

"Go pack your bags and take a rest. I'll call you when it's time to eat. Come to the yard to wash your hands and eat. Okay, I'm going to get busy."

Zhang Jinlan turned around and left the new house.

Jiang Fubao also followed happily.
