The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 124: The sister of childhood friend in the novel (28)

"Xiangbei, are you home?" The village chief went straight to Wang Xiangbei's home after returning from the farm.

Wang Xiangbei, who was repairing the roof, poked his head out from the top and said, "Uncle, I'm here."

"Why are you climbing so high?" The village chief looked up at Wang Xiangbei on the roof.

"There's a leak here. Let me fix it." Wang Xiangbei always speaks briefly and to the point.

"Come down quickly. The thing you mentioned before has been settled. Come down and I will tell you in detail." The village chief said happily.

Wang Xiangbei didn't hesitate and slid down the ladder beside him: "Uncle, you say."

"My cousin has a son who wants to live in the village, so his place is now available." The village chief began his deception today, "You also know that this is a good thing about public grain. I am the first one to ask you."

"Uncle, I'll go." Wang Xiangbei agreed without thinking.

Village Chief: Is it that easy? He still has something to say!

"There is one thing, they don't have a house in the village." The village chief felt a little embarrassed, but when he thought about it, the house was originally given to them and their son by the village, and they only felt better after they had renovated it themselves.

"They want my house?" Wang Xiangbei finally understood. "If I give them the house, where will I live?"

"They also allocated houses outside the farm." The village chief was afraid that Wang Xiangbei would regret it and hurriedly said, "It's a little small, with only one room, but the yard is quite big. If you want a house in the future, you can build another one."

Wang Xiangbei frowned and said nothing.

"How about this! Anyway, you can't live in three rooms in this house by yourself." The village chief thought for a while and gave a compromise suggestion, "I will help coordinate to demolish one room, take the materials over, and build another one for you in the yard over there?"

"I want to move half of the kitchen over there, too." Wang Xiangbei put forward his conditions again, "I will move in once the house is moved."

"I have to talk to someone about this." The village chief didn't dare to make the decision on his own.

"I promised, I won't default on my debt. Of course, the person I changed to can't cheat me either." Wang Xiangbei rarely smiled, showing his teeth, and reached out to touch Xiaobai's head. "Until I move all my things away, Xiaobai will look after the house for me."

The village chief finally understood that Wang Xiangbei seemed quiet and honest, but if anyone wanted to bully him, he wouldn't have to do it himself.

The next day, the village chief found Zhang Wang and told him exactly what Wang Xiangbei had said.

Zhang Wang didn't say anything. He then called his son and daughter-in-law over and told them the situation.

When the daughter-in-law heard that the other party had three rooms and half a kitchen, she wanted to move there first. She would have the final say on what to do then. How could she be afraid of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy?

But as soon as this thought came to his mind, his father-in-law saw through it.

"Daughter-in-law, don't have any bad thoughts about what we have agreed on." Zhang Wang glanced at her and said, "You should move to my place first in the next few days. When the house is ready, you can move over there.

Don't be unconvinced. Wang Xiangbei may be young, but he is capable of dealing with wolves. Don't let him cause trouble for the village by causing wolves every day."

When the village chief heard his cousin say this, he remembered this matter.

Yes! It's still a light punishment for Xiaobai to guard the place. If the wolf is attracted, it will be a big trouble.

After the plan was agreed upon, the task of demolishing and building a house became much simpler. The workers were all villagers found by the village chief, and the meals were provided by Zhang Wang's family. Since they all had the surname Zhang and were considered relatives, the wages were not high. In addition, a ox cart was borrowed and the materials were ready.

It took less than three days and was basically completed.

On the fourth day, Wang Xiangbei pulled all his belongings over in an ox cart. He didn't have much clothes or anything else, but mostly the food he had stored.

The people present were so enraged by the sight of them carrying the items out of the cellar one batch after another.

Wang Xiangbei didn't care about other people's opinions at all. He was not afraid that others would be jealous and want to snatch his things away, because he knew no one would dare to move.

It took two trips to transport all the grain.

The new house was very close to the Su family, just two households away.

In addition, a cellar was dug in the new house. Wang Xiangbei paid someone to dig the cellar himself. However, the best thing about the new house was that it was very close to the well.

The next day after Wang Xiangbei moved into the house, he and Zhang Wang's son went to the farm to handle the quota handover procedures.

On the day of going through the formalities, Su Guoan happened to be with the supply team going to the forest farm, so he didn't know about this matter.
