Away from the big book, the educated youth became the village favorite by running errands

Song Youlin glanced behind him and was startled by Bai Lingling, so he quickly hid behind a tree.

"Sister, you're just going to let her follow you like this?"

Song Shuangshuang didn't care. "If she wants to follow, then let her follow. Sooner or later, people will know about it." Anyway, the money has been handed over to the accountant, and the agreement receipt is with her. Could Bai Lingling still take the house away? So, even if she made a move, it couldn't change it.

Bai Lingling might make some trouble, so she would teach Bai Lingling a lesson before moving out so that she would behave herself for a while.

She had seen that Bai Lingling was a cockroach, invincible! She came every now and then to disgust people.

When Song Shuangshuang arrived at the place, she saw that not only Carpenter Guan was there, but Aunt Chang's family was also there, wearing straw hats and weeding. Even Xiao Tiedan was sticking his butt out pulling weeds.

"What are you doing, auntie? Why are you here in the middle of the day? We've already agreed to find someone to do the work, you guys should take a break!" Song Shuangshuang quickly ran over to ask them to stop. "It's so sunny, what if you get a heat stroke?"

Aunt Chang said nonchalantly that it was okay, they would just do this little job and it wasn't a big deal.

Song Shuangshuang didn't believe it. The weeds in the yard were almost as tall as Xiao Tiedan. It was not as easy as Aunt Chang said.

Song Shuangshuang snatched the hoe from Aunt Chang's hand and said with a stern face, "Aunt Chang, if you are like this, we can't get along. I won't repair this house, and I don't want the rent money."

Aunt Chang had never seen Song Shuangshuang like this before, and was afraid that she would get angry and not repair it, wasting dozens of dollars, so she quickly said that she would quit.

Liu Xiaolin was holding a hoe, not knowing whether he should continue working, and his eyes drifted towards his mother-in-law.

Unfortunately, her mother-in-law didn't receive it, but instead looked at Song Shuangshuang.

"Sister-in-law, you should also take Tiedan home quickly. The child will get sunburned in the middle of the day."

"...Oh, okay." Every time she saw Song Shuangshuang before, she always had a smile on her face. She had never seen such a serious expression on her face. It was quite scary.

Guan Jianjun: "???" No one is taking care of him? His wife just took the child home like this?

Liu Xiaolin took Tiedan home and was startled as he reached the gate of the yard.

"Bai Zhiqing, what are you doing!?" He was peering into the yard like a thief, acting so stealthy and scary.

Liu Xiaolin's shout made everyone in the yard look over.

Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin knew that she followed them to peek, but they didn't react.

Aunt Chang didn't know. She squinted her eyes and looked at Bai Lingling, wondering if she had any bad intentions.

Bai Lingling didn't expect to be discovered as soon as she arrived, and she was a little at a loss. Seeing that everyone in the yard was staring at her, she didn't know if she had a brain cramp or what...she ran away.

Everyone: “…” This guy must be sick.

"No need to care about her." Song Shuangshuang guessed that Bai Lingling was bumped into by Liu Xiaolin as soon as she arrived here, so it would be useless even if she heard her talking.

This psychological quality...tsk tsk.

The brother and sister planned with Aunt Chang, the carpenter, how to renovate the yard and what to do in which places. Aunt Chang also gave some suggestions. Having worked in the kitchen for half her life, she must be more experienced than the two young people.

I also wanted to connect the small stove to the two rooms. I also wanted to divide the separate house next to it into two parts, one for the bathroom, which is convenient for taking a shower in the summer and for washing in the winter. I haven't decided on the other side yet, so I'll leave it empty for now.

Song Shuangshuang and Song Youlin didn't plan to get another room to live in. What would they say if some educated youth wanted to live here in the future? Although they could refuse, wouldn't it make them look cold and disunited? It would be better to just cut them off from the beginning and say there was no room.

In modern times, we have seen people who say they are here to stay for two days, but end up staying for a long time. It is not easy to ask them to leave directly, so when you mention it in a subtle way, they ask for money and want to share the house with you.

But pull it down!

No place, no roommate!

Looking at the yard again, the toilet needs to be rebuilt, and a warehouse for storing firewood needs to be built. It just needs to be simple.

It would be even better if we could dig a vegetable cellar, which would make it convenient to store vegetables and the harvested potatoes and radishes would not spoil easily.

After they finished planning this, Aunt Chang gave them both a thumbs up, saying that they had almost thought of everything.

Song Shuangshuang asked Carpenter Guan to calculate how many people would be needed and how many days it would take to complete the job.

"Song Zhiqing, according to what you said, seven or eight people can finish the work in about ten days. It's just a little bit of work to dig a vegetable cellar and build a warehouse, which requires making adobe bricks.

Fortunately, the soil from digging the vegetable cellar can be used directly to make adobe bricks, so there is no need to go outside to get soil. Digging the vegetable cellar and building the house can be done at the same time, saving time.

It’s hot now and the adobe is drying fast. Once the house is built, we can build the kang. After the kang is built and heated overnight, we can move in.”

Carpenter Guan gave Song Shuangshuang a brief explanation of the process.

Song Shuangshuang took out the 70 yuan she had prepared and wanted to give it to Carpenter Guan, "Uncle, I'm troubled by your request for my house. Take this money and tell me if it's not enough." She felt that 50 yuan might not be enough, so she made a few changes on an impromptu basis today.

Carpenter Guan glanced at his wife before accepting the money. "I'll tell you what you buy and how much it costs. I'll return the remaining money to you. I won't take a penny from you."

"Don't give me the remaining money. I still need you to buy me some furniture, tables, chairs, and shelves for the kitchen. I don't have anything, so I have to buy them all from scratch. If the remaining money is not enough, remember to ask me for it."

Aunt Chang spoke before Carpenter Guan and said, "Enough, enough. That stuff doesn't cost much, there's no need to give it." She then gave Carpenter Guan a look.

Carpenter Guan nodded and said that was enough.

It would be strange if Song Shuangshuang believed it. She thought that she could get the money back from Guan Jianjun when the time comes.

Even if she wanted to take advantage of the situation, she couldn't just take advantage of Aunt Chang's family. Aunt Chang's entire family was mobilized to build a house for her.

If she gave people less money, she would curse herself in her dreams at night.

That afternoon, Carpenter Guan went to get the materials.

Bai Lingling ran back to the educated youth site and woke up the female educated youth who were taking a nap. Lu Xiaotao turned over heavily to express her dissatisfaction, but the others ignored her.

It was not until dinner time that Bai Lingling pretended to be curious and asked, "Song Zhiqing, what did you and Little Song Zhiqing do at noon? I didn't see you resting in the dormitory." She wanted to see how Song Shuangshuang would explain.

Because Bai Lingling wanted everyone to know, she was talking loudly. The male educated youth was almost done eating, but he deliberately slowed down his pace and pricked up his ears to listen to the noise over here.

Song Shuangshuang asked Bai Lingling directly, "Didn't you go with us siblings? Didn't you hear it?"

Bai Lingling blushed and stammered, "I, I didn't follow you."

Song Shuangshuang was anxious to go to the 'new home' to check on the progress. Seeing that the educated youth were also curious, she simply said, "My brother and I are planning to move out. We're going to look at the house at noon."

The educated youth were very surprised when they heard this. They had always thought that the siblings went out to the mountains every day just to pick some wild fruits or something, but they didn't expect that they were going to move out.

"Song Zhiqing, why do you want to move out? Will the village chief and team leader agree?" Feng Aiguo asked the two why they wanted to move out, and asked Song Shuangshuang to think about it carefully and not to go to the village chief rashly.
