“Mother, let them leave tomorrow. We won’t let them stay in our house anymore.”
Madam Fang patted her. “What nonsense are you talking about? We’ve already accepted the money. How can you not let him stay? If you really chase him away, it’ll be difficult to explain to your uncle.”
“B-But she doesn’t know what’s good for her.” Chen Yulan recounted what had happened just now. She was very irritable, especially when she felt the smell of dumplings floating in her nose. She couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
Madam Fang frowned. “Forget it, forget it. She doesn’t know what’s good for her. Isn’t there still that pair of young siblings and that fool mother? Those three don’t know anything. They’ll definitely be easy to fool. Another day, when that girl isn’t around, say a few good words. Are you afraid that they won’t give us anything good? Alright, let’s cook first. We’ll find an opportunity tomorrow. I’m starving.”
“Mother, didn’t you just eat date cake?”
Chen Yulan muttered twice, but she still got to work.
Gu Yundong happily distributed the dumplings and said in a low voice, “That mother and daughter are not easy to get along with. Stay away from them in the future, understand?”
“I know, I know.” Gu Yunshu nodded repeatedly as he ate. “I’m a man. It’s not good for me to be too close to them.”
Gu Yunke saw that his brother had already eaten a few and was instantly extremely anxious. However, he remembered to answer his eldest sister’s question and hurriedly nodded. “I’ll be obedient and stay away. Older Brother, eat slowly. Help me blow on it first.”
Madam Yang nodded. “In the future, when I see them, I’ll run. I’ll run immediately. Dongdong, you don’t have to worry.”
After saying that, she immediately lowered her head and the three of them began to eat assiduously. The dumplings that Big Sister made were the best. They tasted delicious.
The corners of Gu Yundong’s mouth twitched. “Take your time. There’s enough.”
The family of four did not treat Madam Fang and her daughter the same as Aunt Ke. After eating, they boiled water, washed up, and went to bed.
The next morning, Gu Yundong took the blueprint and brought Madam Yang and the other two to the village chief’s house. Before he left, he locked the door.
Chen Liang was already waiting for her. Beside him stood a tall and burly middle-aged man.
As soon as Gu Yundong entered, he introduced, “Yundong, you’re here. Come, come, let me introduce you. This is Feng Daneng from our village. You’re Uncle Feng.”
“Hello, Uncle Feng.”
Feng Daneng nodded and looked at this family of four. He understood why the village chief said that he would be in charge of this matter. It was indeed inconvenient without an adult man in this family. The house they built would not be very big. However, each person would earn 40 copper coins a day. Could they afford it?
Chen Liang patted Feng Daneng’s arm and said, “Your Uncle Feng is an expert in building houses in our area. As long as he’s not busy with farming, he will work near us to help people build houses. When he was young, he even stayed in the prefectural city for two years. His skills are unparalleled.”
“Uncle Chen’s help is naturally the best. I’m not worried.”
“Hahaha.” Chen Liang liked Gu Yundong’s words. She was nice! She was not like the girls and women in the village. Not only were they loud, but they also made people’s ears hurt. “Alright, didn’t you say yesterday that you would go back and think about how to build a house? Think about it. Then tell your Uncle Feng about it.”
“I’ve already drawn the blueprint. Uncle Feng, take a look.” Gu Yundong unfolded the blueprint in her hand.
Feng Daneng and Chen Liang were a little surprised and came over to take a look..
