Although he was very surprised why Li Feng built the house in such a hurry, Li Shu quickly replied to Li Feng's question: "The day after tomorrow? I still have time the day after tomorrow. Do I need to go there then?"

Li Feng nodded and thanked, "Then thank you Uncle Wu. Brother Hui and I don't know anything about building a house. When the time comes, everything will depend on you when we get old."

Li Shu was very comfortable being complimented by him, man, even if he knew that the other party was complimenting him, he was still very happy to accept it, he smiled modestly and said: "Why is building a house as difficult as you said? At that time, I will just watch, and a lot of work needs to be done by others."

Uncle Wu answered so self-effacingly, of course Li Feng continued to praise him, he said with a smile: "Uncle Wu will have to worry about it anyway, by the way, Uncle Wu, when I just came in, I only saw Uncle Wu Auntie and you, where are my two cousins?"

Hearing that he was concerned about his two sons, Li Shu replied proudly: "Your cousin is accompanying his daughter-in-law to his father-in-law's house, and he will stay there for one night before returning tomorrow. As for that cousin of yours, the three of us had a little work to finish last job, so he stayed and probably returned within two days, what's the matter? Are you young people planning to meet up for a get-together?"

Looking at Li Shu's appearance, one could tell that he was very satisfied with his two sons, and he asked about it. Li Feng naturally followed his words and replied: "That's natural. I think my two cousins ​​and I have already + Haven't seen each other in a year, and we will definitely meet to catch up on the past and have a few drinks, but there is still one thing right now, and I need to ask them for help.

Li Shu was really in a good mood after being praised by him, so he agreed smoothly: "Speak, nephew, if there is anything, I will promise it for them first."

Li Feng did not expect that his distant cousin would agree so readily. For this straightforward fifth uncle, the smile on his face became much more sincere, and he said, "I want my two cousins ​​to help you." It’s not a big deal, it’s just a matter of inviting them to help when building the house, Wu Bo can rest assured, even though we are close to each other, we won’t be short of two cousins.”

Unexpectedly, the help boy Feng said was to ask him to call his two sons to help him with him. How big a house is he going to build?

You know, with the growth of the two sons, unless it is a big job, he will rarely let three people take the same job together, which is a waste of manpower.

With his fame, the eldest son was able to do some small jobs by himself a few years ago. He told the eldest son at that time that since he was married and had his own wife, he would take care of it himself. It is not necessary to hand over all the money earned from work to the public. It is right for the young couple to accumulate some private money. As a father, he will not take all that little money into his eyes.

But the most important point is that when you go out to pick up jobs, you must do the job beautifully. If you want to make money by smashing your own signboard, it is simply a dream. He is half encouraging and half beating. The craftsmanship is becoming more and more exquisite, and he feels that the other party is completely capable of becoming a teacher.

As for the youngest son, in the past two years, he has gone out to work with his elder brother, and now he occasionally does some chores to repair the house. I gradually became independent.

If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was a wealthy member of the county town, and he was specially asked to repair the garden and build a separate courtyard, he would never have taken his two sons with him.

Now that kid Feng is building a new house, he just asked the three of them to go there together?Is it because he has been a soldier in the western region for too long, and he still doesn't know much about these things?

He wanted to refuse directly, but when he thought that he had already boasted before, it was really not right for him to regret it after a long time.

But he also didn't want to waste the things his son bought, and at the same time let Boy Feng spend more money. He could earn money from his relatives and friends, but if he was asked to cheat, he definitely wouldn't.

After considering his words, he said, "Boy Feng, you heard what Uncle Wu said, it's not that Uncle Wu wants to repent, but that if you just want to build a new house, I can do it myself. It really doesn't take that much money." Man, Uncle Wu is really afraid that you will spend more money."

Seeing Uncle Wu who struggled a bit, Li Feng laughed a little. What this honest person is afraid of is that he spends too much money?Maybe he really didn't expect that what he was going to build this time was also a big house?

He paused and said: "Don't worry, Uncle Wu, I know the abilities of the three of you. Since I hope to call the three of you together, I won't waste your talent. Uncle Wu just brings people over, and he will know what I mean when he sees it, and if Uncle Wu comes in the next day, if he still doesn’t need my cousins ​​to help, I will naturally say nothing. I will not lose the salary of the two brothers."

Li Shu didn't expect that Li Feng didn't listen to his advice, and instead acted like a fool. The last sentence made Li Shu laugh even more, and he pretended to hit Li Feng. What the hell are you trying to do? If you don’t satisfy me in the future, I’ll go home and rest, and let you mobilize me with money!”

Li Feng smiled at him with a mischievous expression: "Uncle Wu, what are you talking about? I won't even be short of wages for part-time workers. What's the matter if I don't have my own? I'm afraid that next time I come in, Wu Auntie will drive me out with a broom."

"You little rascal, why did you arrange for me to come? Am I so vicious? If I hadn't brought you tea, wouldn't I not have heard your strange talk?" Gao's voice suddenly came from the door.

Li Feng raised his eyes and saw that Mrs. Gao put down the tea and made a gesture of hitting his head with the saucer. Li Feng raised his hands as if begging for mercy, and said, "Aunt Wu is really a god. , Cao Cao arrived, what is Cao Cao compared to Fifth Auntie?"

After listening to him say this, Gao really knocked on his forehead, pretending to be angry and said: "You are still addicted to jokes? This brain collapse is a lesson for you haha."

Li Feng pretended to be wronged and pointed at Li Shu and said, "Uncle Wu, it's really wrong for me to make fun of you here, but don't you see that Uncle Wu is also smiling happily?"

Li Shu didn't expect that Boy Feng would suddenly "lead the disaster to the east", so he quickly restrained his face, but he hiccupped while holding back his laughter, which made people laugh even more, even Gao Shi and Li Shu, who were pretending to be cold-faced, laughed When they got up, the embarrassment and barriers they hadn't seen for a long time melted a lot between the few people talking and laughing, and the relationship naturally warmed up a lot.

A long time passed unknowingly while the few people were laughing and laughing. When Mrs. Gao tried to persuade Li Feng to have dinner at home, he realized that he was going to leave.

He declined several times, saying that Brother Hui had already cooked dinner at home, and then he left Li Shu's house and walked home.

Thinking that he had completed another important task for his wife, Li Feng felt indescribably happy. When he got home, he found that his aunt was already cooking, and his wife seemed to be still doing business over there. Well, I don't know what I'm calculating.

Li Feng walked over quietly, afraid that his movements would disturb the other party in the slightest. After he stood behind Wu Hui, he began to carefully observe what his wife wrote on the paper.

He looked at it as if he was reading a heavenly book, those symbols couldn't be called words at all, right?I think he was the youngest scholar in the local area a few years ago, not to mention that he was well-educated and talented, but he was also well-read in poetry and books, and full of knowledge.

Moreover, he has always been the kind who can read many books. He is also quite proficient in arithmetic, which is regarded as a miscellaneous science by many scholars. see ^.

For this reason, many of his colleagues made fun of him, asking him if he planned to become a champion in the army?He just smiled every time, because he knew that reading was a kind of leisurely pastime for him, but many colleagues didn't understand it.

But even so, he was confused when faced with the "Arabic numerals" used in their era that his wife said.

But by observing the speed of his daughter-in-law checking the calculation on paper, he can also vaguely understand the benefits of this kind of number, that is, it is easy to calculate. Compared with the symbols and words in the mathematics he is learning now, it is simply simpler. Yes, the daughter-in-law's current speed is much faster than those old accountants who have accumulated over the years.

If I can promote this kind of numbers in the future, then everyone can learn a little bit of math?Many poor people will not be deceived because they are illiterate, let alone numbers, making life even worse?

But he also knows that his sudden idea is too whimsical, and he is just a commoner now, so how can he promote this kind of number and counting method across the country?

He sighed lightly, and Wu Hui asked with concern: "What's the matter? What's bothering you? Why are you sighing for no reason?"

It was only then that Li Feng realized that he had disturbed his daughter-in-law by making noise just now, he said apologetically, "It's nothing, it's just some ridiculous ideas, and my daughter-in-law, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have disturbed you." of."

Wu Hui put down the pen in his hand, turned his head to stare at him, and blamed him, "It's nothing, what are you talking about? I've noticed it since you came in, but you didn't open your mouth. By the way, what were you looking at just now?" ?”

So the daughter-in-law's insight is so powerful?Li Feng was a little shocked, and he replied without thinking about his wife's question: "I didn't see anything, it just depends on what you are counting and the symbols you use."
