Jiang Shuyue also stopped when she heard this, but she didn't interrupt, she just watched silently.

Lin Huaihua smiled and said, "Yes, do you know me?"

Unexpectedly, the man blushed, nodded first and then shook his head.

"Do you know him or not? Why are you nodding and shaking your head?"

"I...I'm Chen Yuanliang. Did Uncle Lin mention me to you?"

Jiang Shuyue and Lin Huaihua looked at each other. Isn’t this too much of a coincidence?

"Ah, I did mention it, it turns out to be you." Lin Huaihua also blushed. She just came to ask some questions, but she didn't expect to meet him by chance.

"Then she is my second aunt and can't be called sister anymore."

Chen Yuanliang glared at the little guy, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm sorry, it's just a kid talking nonsense, I'll tell him off when I get back, this... is the snack I bought, I haven't eaten it yet, you guys... you guys have worked hard setting up the stall, eat... eat it."

The man put his things down and ran away.

Lin Huaihua pouted, "Who wants to eat his snacks? This guy runs faster than a rabbit."

Jiang Shuyue smiled mischievously at the side, and looked satisfied with Lin Huaihua. That's right, Chen Yuanliang was a dealer in mountain products, hardworking and smart. She had asked people about him earlier and found out that he was a good person. He was the second child in the family, filial to his parents, and lived with his brother and sister-in-law, but his family was harmonious.

I just saw him getting along with his nephew, and I realized that he is also good to children.

Looking at it this way, Jiang Shuyue felt that Uncle Lin had good taste.

And he was obviously satisfied with Lin Huaihua.

On the way back, Jiang Shuyue pushed a cart of pig intestines. This time she went to two meat stalls and bought all the ones that the stalls didn't want. Naturally, she also bought dozens of kilograms of meat.

Although the cost is not small, I made 350 coins today after deducting the cost, and half of it is due to the grilled sausages.

"I still don't understand, how did he recognize me?"

Jiang Shuyue curled her lips, "It means that he is concerned about it and has asked around."

"Then he doesn't know that I'm here to set up a stall with you today?"

Jiang Shuyue shrugged and said, "Then ask him next time you see him."

"Who said I was going to see him? You bad boy Shuyue, you teased me. I won't pay attention to you. You have to go back and sew your bag." Lin Huaihua trotted back.

When Jiang Shuyue returned home, it started raining heavily in the afternoon.

While she was glad that she had returned in time, she also began to worry.

The Xiao family's houses are all thatched huts that have been there for decades. When Xiao Lin comes back in a few years, I'm afraid that the sky will be visible from the roof. Now it's raining outside, and the house has become a water curtain cave.

I still have to live here for a few years, so this really isn't an option.

She put on her shoes and went to the old couple's room.

She just came back, had a bite to eat and went to sleep.

At this moment, the old couple was packing up the pig intestine casings she bought. They washed them over and over again until the water became clear.

The old couple work very hard and are not shy at all.

"Why don't you take a nap? I and your father are here. You are not needed. You have been tired all morning. Take a rest. Mom will make you whatever you want to eat in the evening."

Jiang Shuyue is eating well now, and his body is getting better and better. He is really getting stronger day by day. "I'm not tired. I'm young. I just need to rest. Dad, Mom, I have something I want to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Old man Xiao spoke to her only after seeing how serious she was.

"It's nothing. I just saw that our house is not good enough. It always leaks. My house is still okay, but you see the walls of your house are cracked. I was thinking, why don't we build a new house?"

Old Man Xiao was dumbfounded. Who doesn’t want to live in a new house, but where is the money?

"Shuyue, your parents are incompetent and have wronged you."

"No, Dad, don't say that. I'm not wronged at all. I'll take care of the money. I don't know anything about building a house, so I'm afraid you two will have to do it. Besides, I still have to set up my stall, otherwise all the customers will run away."

"Shuyue, building three rooms will cost at least a lot of money!"

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "Well, let's not build three rooms."

"Those two rooms are also quite expensive."

"No, build five rooms." Jiang Shuyue said, "Three main rooms and two side rooms."

"Five... five rooms? How much does that cost?" Old man Xiao was so scared that he almost sat in the colon wash basin.

"I can make money. Now I have hot and sour noodles and grilled sausages. I plan to continue selling bags. It won't be long before I have them."

The old man of the Xiao family was stunned for a moment. He was happy and excited, but he didn't know what to say.

"Then... don't you want to wait for Xiao Lin?"

"Why are we waiting for him?" Jiang Shuyue smiled. "It rains a lot this year. By summer, our house won't be able to hold up. When he comes back, we'll all be homeless."

"Is there a lot of rain? Why do I hear people say there's a drought this year?"

Jiang Shuyue smiled, "Dad, believe me, there will definitely be rain this year, so this house really needs to be built."

"Then... then of course I'll listen to you."

Why would Old Man Xiao be unhappy? He has no ability to earn money, and the money is all paid by his daughter-in-law. What is there for him to be unhappy about living in the house for free?

"Then your mother and I will go haul adobe bricks and pick up stones tomorrow. Every bit saved counts."

"Dad, no need. I plan to build a blue brick house." Jiang Shuyue said.

"What? You can't even come up with the five taels of silver, my girl, are you... serious?"

Jiang Shuyue smiled and nodded, "Yes, if we are going to build it, we should build a better one and build a high wall. Xiao Lin is not at home, so we will be safer, right?"

It is safe, but where does the money come from?

Jiang Shuyue also made a temporary decision. After Xiao Lin took the parents away, she might not be sure to live in this house anymore. So she decided to take the trouble once and enjoy it for a few more years.

"By the way, Dad and Mom, I have to go to the county tomorrow."

She didn't have that much money, and it was time to sell the wooden plaque.

In the evening, Old Man Xiao asked again, "Shuyue, are you talking about the five blue brick houses?"

Jiang Shuyue was not impatient and smiled and said, "You are right, you know how to build a house. Calculate how many bricks you need and I will go to the town to buy them in a few days."

Old man Xiao counted on his fingers, but he still couldn't figure it out after just one try. He decided to talk about it later.

Jiang Liuyun clapped his hands happily when he knew that his family was building a house. He did not dare to ask more, but Jiang Shuyue guessed his thoughts, "Five rooms, you don't have to sleep in the woodshed anymore."

Jiang Liuyun blushed, "I...as long as I live with my sister, I can sleep in the woodshed."

"Then when the new house is built, you can sleep in the woodshed, and I'll let Changle sleep in one of his own rooms."

The kitten also became stronger day by day, and walked with more strength, "Meow!"

"Hey, then let me stay!"

The next day, Jiang Shuyue went to the town with the wooden plaque, and then spent twenty cents to hire a car to take her to the county, otherwise she would not be able to go back that day.

When he saw the city gate of Songjiang County, a sense of familiarity came over him, and Jiang Shuyue clenched the plaque in his hand.
