Good luck every time

Li Ruyi thought about it and felt that this was still not a sure thing.

She thought about building a wooden frame in front of the house, covering it with thatch and pasting window paper on it to keep out the cold in winter, and it wouldn't affect the children playing inside.

She did what she wanted to do. She drove the carriage to the door of her house, and the third child jumped out to open the door and remove the threshold.

The donkey cart entered the yard and the eldest sister came out of the house. Besides her, there were also a few gossip leaders in the village.

The weather had become much colder, and the location at the entrance of the village was no longer suitable for them to stay, so they found this place.

Li Ruyi is the head of the household and has a lot of money. He has no habit of saving firewood, so he has already started heating the kang.

Not only is the house warm, but everyone can get together to make clothes or shoes and if anyone needs needles and thread, they can borrow them.

There are some stingy people in the village, but most people still want to save face.

It doesn't affect anything if we pass some little things around to each other.

Li Ruyi is not stingy, she is just selective about the people she interacts with.

If some people do not affect her interests and can even be of some help to her, then she will not care about trivial things.

Some people are very nice to her and have helped her, but they tend to hinder her in some things, and she will deal with them accordingly.

Just like the third aunt.

Third Aunt is a good person, and Li Ruyi is willing to maintain this relationship with her, but she definitely doesn't want the other party to do things for her.

In fact, employment itself is about distinguishing between the primary and the secondary. Sangu is suitable for equal interaction, not for distinction between the primary and the secondary.

In contrast, Li Ruyi prefers Li Er's family. They want to rely on her for their livelihood, so they will lower their attitude when doing things and will take the initiative to consider the gains and losses for her.

Instead of just caring about your own mood.

Of course, Li Er didn't behave like this for no reason. This was also the result of Li Ruyi's training.

She used the incidents of stealing food and kidnapping to create an image of a strong person in Li Er's mind, so that even if the other party was stronger, older, and had more family members than her, he would not dare to think of resisting.

Then he pushed Li Er into a corner, shrinking his space further. When it became too small, a little kindness would make Li Er and his family grateful.

Full meals, new clothes, and occasional opportunities to make money are ways to make the other person feel comfortable.

Strength, connections, and the ability to handle problems are what they respect.

But all these are of no use in front of Third Aunt.

In fact, it’s not just the third aunt, even the eldest sister is like this.

Li Jixiang can have his own thoughts and pursuits, and Li Ruyi will allow the parts that do not conflict with Li Ruyi's interests to develop freely.

However, once interests are involved, she will never compromise with her elder sister.

As the two of them traveled together, it was always the elder sister who was compromising with her.

Of course, in addition to these people, there are also those who harbor malicious intent towards Li Ruyi.

In Li Ruyi's world, the means don't matter, only the results matter.

If someone can still be used, then give him a good face, such as the boss of thugs, or Li Laoliu now.

If you can't take advantage of her but still try to get close to her, then you can only rely on your own abilities!

This style of doing things has helped Li Ruyi recover a little from his earlier bad reputation caused by selling salt.

Of course, in addition to her own efforts, the third brother's fists also played an indispensable role.

"Hey, Ruyi is back! There are so many things!"

"This child is really extraordinary. Look at how well he manages his family at such a young age."

"Ouch..."

"A child who can take care of things is a blessing. He will be a good manager of the household when he gets married."

Speaking of getting married, several middle-aged women exchanged ambiguous glances.

They were all speculating about the relationship between Han Shian and the two big brothers of the Li family.

Some people think that Han Shian is attracted to Li Jixiang because they are of similar age.

But some people think that he has a crush on Li Ruyi, as if there is no connection between Li Jixiang and Han Shian.

These people were divided into two factions, each holding their own opinion.

Li Ruyi pretended not to know these things.

It's hard to explain clearly, so why waste time on it? As long as my elder sister lives under the eyes of the villagers, her reputation will not be affected and her future life plans will not be delayed, that's enough.

Li Ershi and Li Shiwu felt a little embarrassed looking at the aunts and sisters in the room.

Not all the people here are from the Li family. There are also people from the Han family and the Sun family. So the two of them had to move away a little and could only carry the things into the house in silence.

Li Ruyi also moved her things into the house, and her eldest sister and third sister followed.

Li Ruyi put her things on the kang and her elder sister came over to help her clean up.

The cotton bags were placed on the rack on the floor and the cloth was stuffed into the kang cabinet.

The remaining needles and thread should be wound onto the spool.

This spool of thread is also simple. Just choose a slippery corn stalk, cut a piece of it, wrap the thread on it, and the needle can also be inserted into it.

Someone came over to help them wind the thread and talked about which color of thread looked good.

Li Ruyi used the remaining thread to wrap up some of the ropes and gave them some. After a while, everyone went home contentedly.

After they left, Li Ershi and Li Shiwu, who were warming themselves by the stove, came in.

Li Ruyi handed the remaining work to the third brother and eldest sister, and she went out with the two brothers to discuss setting up the scaffolding.

As the three of them walked out, Li Ruyi heard Granny Ding groan twice.

She hunched her neck, clamped her legs together and walked out of the house quickly.

The medicinal herbs that Grandma Ding wanted were still not available.

However, she felt that it would be soon, and it all depended on whether Li Laoliu could gain weight this time.

It was definitely impossible to get one hundred or eighty strings of cash, but Li Ruyi knew the amount and she would not accept anything less.

The three of them came out, and Li Ruyi talked about building a shed in front of the house.

Building this shed may affect the lighting, but it will definitely be much warmer in winter.

Moreover, if the third child brings the children back, it will be a good opportunity for them to play here, so that no one will have trouble explaining what is happening.

Li Ershi and Li Shiwu listened and nodded.

This shed is very simple. First, you nail a sturdy frame, then make some muddy seams, put thatch on it, put chopped wood underneath, and paste window paper on top.

Everything is simple, but it takes a lot of effort.

Li Ruyi and the other two started working while it was still daylight, and by the time dark came, the simple shelf had taken shape.

The eldest sister asked them to go for dinner.

After dinner, Li Er was still addicted to his work and wanted to finish nailing the shelf, but Li Ruyi kicked him back!
