The eldest lady became popular in the farming variety show
Chapter 168 Looking for a venue
Liu Yuxi saw Jiang Hexi coming up and waved to her excitedly:
"Sister Xi, your leg injury hasn't healed yet, why did you come here alone?"
Jiang Hexi smiled and said, "This place is going to be built like a Monet garden. The order and matching of each flower and plant is very particular and cannot be wrong. You can't figure out the artistic depth of field here just by looking at a blueprint."
Liu Yuxi put his hands behind his back and gathered the design drawings in his hands into a ball.
"Sister Xi, I'm really sorry for scalding you before."
She apologized repeatedly, "I just wanted to take advantage of the time you were recovering from your injury to oversee the construction of the garden for you. This way, both Prince Yan and I would feel better."
Jiang Hexi didn't appreciate her kindness at all, "So, it was Prince Yan who asked you to come here to supervise?"
Yan Jie heard this from a distance, and said with a strong desire to survive: "This matter has nothing to do with me."
Liu Yuxi felt as if she was slapped in the face, and her cheeks felt hot.
"That's what I meant."
"Now that you're here, who's going to look after the crops in the fields and the free-range chicken farm on the hill?"
Seeing her cold and stiff face, Jiang Hexi said, "I'm going to take a step back and then advance.
"Yuxi, the team decided to divide themselves into groups this way because of considerations."
She reminded deliberately:
"You will leave the farming variety show next time. I don't want you to take over the Sanxi Lakeside project because I'm afraid it will be difficult to hand over. The work in the fields and the chicken farm is done by hired aunties. I hope you can understand everyone's hard work."
Liu Yuxi was so embarrassed by what she said that she didn't get angry but laughed:
"Sister Xi, I'll trouble you to look after this place. I'll continue to work in the fields and chicken farm tomorrow."
She didn't show any dissatisfaction throughout the whole process.
Jiang Hexi watched her walk out. Just this fact alone made him feel intimidated by her.
Yan Jie has been waiting by the stream.
He looked at the sky which was tinged with dusk, thinking about carrying Jiang Hexi back, but at this moment Li Youtian drove over in a ox cart.
"Sister Xi, are you done with your work here?"
"Busy working."
Jiang Hexi walked towards him step by step, "Uncle, have you delivered all the ducks to Professor Luo and his wife?"
"I gave them all. Mrs. Rowe liked the ducks very much. When she got the box, she put them all in the pond."
Li Youtian picked up the bullwhip, gave her a seat and said, "Come up, I'll take you back."
Jiang Hexi didn't expect that he still cared about her and even remembered to give her a ride on his way back. Such kindness made her feel embarrassed and unable to say no.
"Uncle Li, is this your ox cart?" Yan Jie walked around to the front of the cart and looked at his ox track.
"My car can only accommodate one person. If I take Ximei with me, I can't take you with me."
Li Youtian didn't give him a good look. He still remembered the last time he caused Ximei to get scalded.
"Did you eat any grass after running all this way?"
"have eaten."
"are you full?"
Li Youtian glared at him arrogantly and fell silent.
Yan Jie pulled out a bunch of tender grass and put it to the ox's mouth, and the ox opened its mouth and began to eat.
"Uncle Li, this cow is obviously not full. It will be hard for him to pull you back alone, let alone bring Ximei with him."
Jiang Hexi walked to the side of the ox cart and said regretfully:
"Uncle Arita, I won't force you to do this. I'll have plenty of opportunities to ride your oxcart later."
Li Youtian hesitated and asked, "Then how are you going to get back?"
Yan Jie took the lead and answered for her, "I'll carry her back."
Jiang Hexi had to look at Yan Jie differently. Even if there was no opportunity, he would create one and go up.
The group returned to the stone courtyard in a van.
Chu Yang had a rare moment of leisure after dinner, so he suggested playing mahjong. None of the three grown men paid any attention to him, so he went to find his three sisters to join a table.
Chu Yang thought about it carefully. If he went to find Yu Xiangwan, he would probably be rejected mercilessly in person by her.
But if he convinced Jiang Hexi, given the relationship between Jiang Hexi and Yu Xiangwan, Yu Xiangwan would have to agree even if she didn't want to. In the end, there were only three people missing, and with Liu Yuxi's easy-going personality, she would definitely agree without hesitation.
So he found Jiang Hexi and said, "Sister Jiang, you have been unlucky lately."
Jiang Hexi became excited when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
"Think about what happened recently. First, I drank the wrong amount of rose wine and almost made a fool of myself in the live broadcast room. Then, I was scalded by boiling water for no reason. Don't you think this is a bit bad luck?"
"How do we transport it?"
Chu Yang told her mysteriously:
"There's a saying in my hometown that playing mahjong can change your fortune. As long as you have good luck tonight and win well, your bad luck will naturally go away, and good luck will come right after that, right?"
"Is it accurate?"
"From the personal experience of those people back home, it's quite accurate."
Jiang Hexi has always liked to pray for help. Some things are better to be believed than not. What if her luck really changes?
She immediately decided to win big at the mahjong table tonight!
Jiang Hexi immediately found Yu Xiangwan, who was unwilling to play mahjong at first:
"I am not good at playing cards and I can't afford to lose. More importantly, I don't want to deny my loss in front of the live camera and expose my character."
"My uncle is known as a gambling tycoon in Macau. Your ancestors made their fortune from this."
Jiang Hexi said provocatively: "A good father will have a good daughter. How come you can't even afford a mahjong table?"
Yu Xiangwan was completely irritated by her. She jumped up from the sofa and said:
"Sister Xi, tonight I will make you lose all your good luck in the second half of the year. Just wait for bad luck to plague you."
Jiang Hexi dealt with Yu Xiangwan and went to find Liu Yuxi.
"Yuxi, Wanwan, Chuyang and I are going to play mahjong. Do you want to come over and play with us?"
"Okay." Liu Yuxi agreed with a smile.
Before Jiang Hexi could even come up with the excuse of "three people short of one", she agreed immediately.
She vaguely felt that there was a dagger hidden in that smile, as if there was something unpleasant happening in the evening, and she wanted to get back at the card table that night.
Four people gathered in front of the rectangular table. When the sound of shuffling mahjong tiles was heard, everyone around them looked towards them.
When Chu Yang drew the cards, he said, "Do you three sisters know where I'm from?"
Yu Xiangwan didn't stop stacking the cards. She asked without even looking up, "Why, does this have anything to do with your card skills?"
"My hometown is Chongqing, Sichuan."
Chu Yang said proudly, "I grew up in a mahjong parlor. I have been exposed to too many mahjong games since I was a child. I started playing mahjong at the age of eight. With these twelve years of experience, there is no way I can lose."
The three people at the mahjong table were quite speechless at his mysterious self-confidence.
Yan Jie saw that the mahjong game had not even started yet when these people started fighting with each other.
He would not miss any opportunity to show his courtesy to Jiang Hexi, so he moved a stool and sat down.
Xie Wanyi still remembered that last time Yan Jie deliberately gave Wanwan a low score in order to help Jiang Hexi get promoted. This time, it was obvious that he was cheating, so he also found a low stool and sat on it.
Shen Yingyu sat alone on the sofa, looking at the excitement around the card table, wondering how he became the only one left behind.
