If you want a husband, you have to fight for it.
Chapter 36: No Pig Ears
The two women pondered over it from lunch to the afternoon but still couldn't figure it out, not knowing whether they should trust the butcher's words.
They walked around the house three times and opened all the windows that could be opened. But Aunt Liu still felt it was not enough, so she went out and basked in the furnace-like sun for ten minutes.
My face turned a little red from the sun, and I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but I felt like I had absorbed enough yang energy, and even my waist felt a little more comfortable.
In the afternoon, Guan Chuncao made dinner, which was still simple noodles.
She couldn't do anything more difficult, and hadn't learned how to light a stove. Even the noodles she cooked had to be supervised by Liu Ma.
The noodles cooked by Guan Chuncao are lighter than those cooked by Liu Ma. Just add a little oil and salt, and sprinkle a few handfuls of chopped green onions.
Fortunately, there were still some meat dishes she brought that she hadn’t finished eating, so she heated up a bowl and had another meal.
Aunt Liu thought that food in the countryside was always greasy, so she planned to eat one piece and put it down. Unexpectedly, it was quite delicious. She even ate three pieces without even forgetting to put down her chopsticks.
"By the way, what are you writing in that notebook?"
Aunt Liu recalled that when they were checking the house together in the afternoon, Wan Chuncao kept taking notes with a pen.
She took a curious look at it and saw only messy pictures drawn by Wan Chuncao with incomprehensible words.
Remembering that Wan Chuncao was an uneducated countryman who couldn't read, I didn't ask much. Now that I think about it, I have nothing to say, so I just find a topic to talk about.
Wan Chuncao didn't mind telling her what it was. She put a piece of braised pork in Xu Muyu's bowl and said, "This morning, when you were sitting on the sofa in a daze, didn't the master take me around the house? He told me where there were problems with the house."
Xu Muyu ignored the piece of delicious braised pork in the bowl. He poked the noodles with his chopsticks but didn't even think of putting it into his mouth.
Aunt Liu asked hurriedly, "What else is wrong with this house? What does the master say?"
"There are many problems. The master said that they all need to be corrected."
Wan Chuncao bit off a large piece of meat, pointed at the skylight above the kitchen with her chopsticks and said, "We have to open the skylight first to let the yang energy in."
The skylight was sealed by Yu Xiu after Xu Muyu got into trouble. Yu Xiu said that Xu Muyu had injured his leg and if there were so many windows in the house, the cold wind would rush in and hurt people.
Liu Ma thought about raising an opinion, thinking that the little wind was not a big deal. But Yu Xiu and Xu Muyu were at loggerheads, so she had no right to interrupt.
If we open the skylight again now, she has no objection and agrees with this approach, saying, "It's good to open this window, it's brighter."
"And the steps at the door."
As he ate, Wan Chuncao said, "The master said that the steps at the door are too high. We need to level them and make them into a gentle slope. This way, the God of Wealth can come in directly without having to walk up the stairs to bring us wealth."
Aunt Liu didn't know there was such a saying, so she asked, "Did you dig the steps?"
Wan Chuncao told her not to worry about it, as it was all for the God of Wealth to come in smoothly: "What's a threshold? We can dig it if we don't dig and pave the way. How can the God of Wealth come in if we don't dig and pave the way?"
"Not only do the steps need to be dug, but the kitchen also needs to be remodeled."
Aunt Liu shouted, "What? The kitchen needs to be remodeled too?"
Wan Chuncao said, "The master said that this kitchen is too high and needs to be lowered. It should be you who is pressing down on the kitchen, not the kitchen that is pressing down on you. This is all for your own good, you don't know."
Aunt Liu could accept this for now. She glanced at the kitchen and said, "I didn't expect there is such a term for kitchens."
"There are many explanations, but you don't know."
Wan Chuncao told her one by one what needed to be changed in the house.
"The latrine, the one in my man's room, also needs to be changed. The master said that the latrine is too small and needs to be dug deeper, otherwise it won't be able to hold human energy."
Liu Ma said, "That's called a toilet."
She asked in passing: "What can't save popularity?"
Wan Chuncao took a mouthful of noodles and said calmly, "I just can't poop."
Aunt Liu almost choked on her bite and put down her chopsticks.
Wan Chuncao also said: "The master said it would be best if everything in the room was bigger. The bathtub, the washing pool, the wardrobe, everything should be bigger, so that people would not feel cramped and would be in a good mood."
"The window needs to be made bigger to let in more light."
What she meant was, "I'm going to hollow out the whole wall and make a door."
There were quite a few things to change, all in the bedroom, even the windows. But changing it to the door was too exaggerated, so Aunt Liu asked, "Is that also the master's idea?"
Wan Chuncao said: "No, it was my own idea. Changing the windows into doors will make it easier for us to be transported out directly after we die."
Liu Ma thought her ears were misheard: "W-what?"
Guan Chuncao felt that her ears were not as good as pigs' ears. Pigs can even hear when to eat manure!
"I mean, I plan to change the window in the room into a sliding door. If my man accidentally falls in the room, he can be pulled out and sent to the hospital. In the future, when he gets old, he can also be dragged out through this door."
"When I die, I will be carried out through this door."
"The whole family can go out through this door, and they don't have to walk so far through the main gate. How convenient."
Who would talk like that? But he was not wrong, just a little harsh. Aunt Liu didn't know what to say, so she could only say, "According to what you mean, the family will have to make major changes, right?"
Wan Chuncao raised her chopsticks and said, "Of course, if you want to change it, you have to change it all at once! It saves a lot of time and effort!"
Aunt Liu asked casually, "It would cost a lot of money to make such a big change, right? Where did you get the money? Did Mr. Xu give it to you?"
"Snapped!"
Before Wan Chuncao could answer, Xu Muyu, who had been eating quietly at the side, smashed his chopsticks.
The chopsticks hit the table with such a loud noise that the table almost broke in two, and the dinner table was instantly silent.
"Mother Liu."
Xu Muyu's voice came coldly.
This was to let Liu Ma send him away from the dinner table, even though Liu Ma had a back injury and it was inconvenient for her to do so.
Xu Muyu's face turned extremely cold. Aunt Liu knew that she had inadvertently mentioned the taboo word. She didn't dare to say anything else. She put down her chopsticks, pushed the person away and left.
Wan Chuncao was left watching them leave with a confused look on her face.
Aunt Liu did not push Xu Muyu back to the room. She opened a small door opposite the room and pushed Xu Muyu in.
Wan Chuncao heard several heavy mechanical sounds coming from the room. The door opened and closed, and opened and closed again, but no one came out.
After going up to the second floor, Aunt Liu pushed Xu Muyu out of the elevator and walked towards the largest room on the second floor.
That’s right, the second-floor villa building has an elevator.
It was specially installed for Xu Muyu to make it convenient for him to go up and down the second floor.
Pushing people up to the second floor, Aunt Liu seemed more cautious than usual and paid more attention to Xu Muyu's expression, especially after they stepped into the largest room on the second floor.
Xu Muyu was very indifferent and had only one word for Liu Ma who pushed him up to the second floor: "Get lost."
Aunt Liu left in a huff, not daring to say a word or complain at all.
After the person left, there was a dull sound from upstairs as if something fell off and hit the floor.
It was so loud and heavy that no one dared to get close.
After a long while, someone brought a bowl of noodles that had never been eaten and knocked on the door.
