Beautiful Peasant Girl: The Young Marquis's Beloved

The old house of the Liu family is no longer inhabited.

Knowing that the old house was going to be rebuilt, Liu Dongcheng asked Liu Juan to invite the two elders to move back to their original house.

The old couple originally thought it was troublesome to move around, but one day after Zhu Jiacheng and his team started working... the old couple resolutely moved back with their two servants.

There was nothing they could do, it was too noisy. They were used to quietness these days, and the work in the backyard made their heads buzz.

Liu Xu stood outside the door, eyes full of surprise.

Isn't this progress too fast? When she came to see it yesterday morning, the foundation of the wing was still being laid, right? The roof will be completed today... Even the wall is almost finished.

Zhu Jiacheng was not like the foremen in Liu Xu's previous life who were only responsible for supervising the work and doing nothing else. He worked with the workers and was more skillful than the average worker.

At this time, he was laying bricks with his head down. A worker saw the catkins coming.

"Boss, the young master is here!" he said while raising his chin towards the door.

Zhu Jiacheng raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his face before looking over.

"Xu girl, why are you here?" He clapped his hands and walked towards the door. There was construction going on inside, so it was better not to let the little girl in.

"Uncle Zhu, I've found another job for you!" Liu Xu said with a smile, her eyes like a pair of crescent moons.

"Oh, that's a good thing. Tell me, whose house are we building it for?" Actually, they don't get many jobs building houses in winter.

It cannot be said that there are not many, but people usually only need a few people, because in winter most farmers stay at home and there is no need to hire too many people outside.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to recruit so many people to build a new yard for Liu Xu's family.

"Hey, this is my home. My grandpa and his family are coming, and there are too many people at home to stay. So, my mother asked me to ask you to help build two cross-yards."

"Are you still building the same courtyard as the main one?"

"Yeah, same thing. The yard can be decorated more elaborately. How long will it take to build it?"

"It will only take about ten days. After we finished building your house, more than half of the people left. I will recruit them back."

The two courtyards of the Liu family combined are probably about as big as this old house, it just takes some effort to repair the drainage.

"Okay then, leave it to Uncle Zhu. The sooner the better!" Liu Xu was delighted when he heard this. Sure enough, no matter in which time and space, the people in the Central Plains were always very fast in infrastructure construction.

"No problem! By the way, this old house will probably be finished tomorrow. After a little fumigation and finishing touches the day after tomorrow, it will be ready for habitation."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Zhu and all the uncles for your hard work. I will go and inform grandpa and the others right away!" After saying that, he waved to Zhu Jiacheng and ran towards the village.

Zhu Jiacheng looked at her cheerful back and shook his head and laughed. Alas, he wondered when his daughter would come.

It took a hundred days to heal his broken bones, and Liu Dongcheng can only sit up now.

When Liu Xu was sitting in the seedling box, he suddenly had an idea and asked Liu Dongxiang to make crutches for him. Now at least he can solve his personal problems by himself.

On weekdays, he teaches his youngest son to read and write at home. Liu Chengcai seems to be much more sensible now. At least, he sees the catkins coming now.

"Second sister, you're here! Grandpa is in the house!"

Thinking back to the past: "stinky girl", "dead girl", "little bitch"... these were all the catchphrases used by the mother and daughter of the first wife and the old lady Zhang, without missing a single one.

Liu Xu nodded lightly and went in.

He was the culprit who caused the death of the original owner and her mother's premature birth. Even though he was young or was being used by others, a crime was a crime and she could not forgive him.

Liu Chengcai's eyes dimmed and he returned to the house silently.

When Mr. Liu Dashan saw Liu Xu coming, he was very happy. Mrs. Zhang was also smiling and hurried to pour her some water.

"Grandma, stop busying yourself. I just came to tell you that the old house will be finished the day after tomorrow. You can ask Granny Wang and the others to clean it up and fumigate it before you can move back in."

"So fast!" Liu Dashan was surprised. It had only been a few days. "It turns out that this expert's moves are different!"

"Of course not. The main house has a bathroom just like mine. I'll ask Uncle He to come over and teach you how to use it."

"Oh, great!" The old man was satisfied. He had heard that the bathroom, no, it's called a washroom, in the second son's house was very convenient to use.

"If there's nothing else, I'll go back. There's a lot going on at home these days." Most importantly, there was nothing to talk about.

"Okay, since you are busy, I won't keep you here!"

After saying goodbye to the old couple, Liu Xu went straight out of the yard and went home.

When we got home, Aunt Lin and the others had already wrapped the ashes and placed them in the utility room.

It can be said that their backyard is safer than the front yard, because without Liu Xu and Xu Ruolan talking, outsiders are not allowed to enter.

It was almost lunch time, so she stopped running around and went to the main room to talk to Xu Ruolan, then stayed in the room to play with her brother.

The two little ones are wearing red cotton-padded jackets today, which are embroidered with a cartoon little tiger with catkins. They look so cute.

Seeing his sister coming, Xu Ge'er suddenly turned over and gave Liu Xu a "toothless" smile, which was so cute that Liu Xu blushed.

He picked up Xu Ge'er and started to chew him. The little kid laughed happily.

When Hao Ge'er saw this, he became anxious and turned over, babbling and yelling, as if to say that his sister was unfair and he wanted something too.

Liu Xu was so amused that he couldn't stop laughing. Seeing that he started to purse his lips, she quickly put Xu Ge'er down, picked up the little vinegar bucket, and quickly comforted him.

This brat is getting more and more troublesome as he grows older. If I don't comfort him quickly, my ears will be in trouble again.

In the end, he simply handed everyone over to Yue Niang.

After lunch, Liu Xu went next door to check on the progress.

There's only a little left and we can finish it today.

After returning home, Liu Xu began to arrange the people who would work tomorrow.

Fortunately, the villagers have tilled the soil and helped to weed the field. We can start planting tomorrow.

At the same time, Mu Lingxuan and his group were approaching Yongshun Prefecture. This time, he was accompanied not by Captain Yao, but by another Captain and twenty or so people from his camp.
