After her husband died, her parents came to force her to remarry

The news that Zhang Fu wanted to renovate his house spread throughout the village in just two days.

Everyone was envious, and when they heard that his family was looking for someone to repair the house, many people came to want to work.

But Jiang Xiaohe doesn't care about this matter, let Zhang Fu and Zhang Quan make the decision.

Moreover, she was not familiar with the villagers, and she didn't know which ones were diligent and which ones were lazy.

After calculating the day to start construction, Wang Qiuxia packed up the few things in her house and moved them to the woodshed in the backyard.

Then their family moved to Zeng Hua's home to stay temporarily.

Zhang Fu and Zhang Quan finally selected eight people in the village to help repair the house, paying them ten cents a day and providing them with lunch.

The person who was chosen was very happy. He could go to the town to work, and the cheapest salary was only seven or eight cents a day. People like Zhang Daniu who could work in a quarry would only earn twelve cents at most, but the Zhang family offered him ten cents directly. The job was in the village, and he could go home every day. Who wouldn't be happy to do this?

But the people who were chosen were happy, and those who were not chosen were naturally unhappy.

Immediately, someone came to Zeng Hua's door to make trouble: "Why can't my husband come to work?"

Zeng Hua was not someone who was easily bullied. He put his hands on his hips and started to curse: "Yu Honghua, who we hire to work is our business. We pay for the work, not yours. Who are you to blame? I tell you, we can hire whoever we want. You have no right to interfere! The people we choose are all capable of repairing houses. What can your wife do? If you want to work so much, you can repair the house yourself, so that your whole family can work." At the end, he might have been really angry and spit at the side: "Bah, I gave you face, but you still came to my door to make trouble!"

Yu Honghua's face turned red with anger after being scolded by her.

Zeng Hua continued to speak: "Get out of my way. We don't need a guard dog at our door!"

After saying that, he closed the door.

Yu Honghua was so angry that she stamped her feet and cursed: "We are all from the same village, why did you invite others and not my family... Jiang Xiaohe, you little bitch, get out of here, if you don't give me an explanation today, this matter will not end... Ah!"

A basin of water was poured out. Jiang Xiaohe held the basin and thought she was ridiculous. "I'm not going to tell you anything. Who do you think you are? I'm telling you, my second aunt can talk to you nicely. I don't have her good temper. If you keep talking nonsense at the door, I won't hire anyone from this village. I'll hire people from outside to do the work, and then tell them that I fired them because you made me so upset!"

Yu Honghua's face and body were all wet, and she shivered all over. She pointed at Jiang Xiaohe with gritted teeth and said, "You dare!"

"Do you think I dare?" Jiang Xiaohe sneered, "When the time comes, I'm afraid everyone will come to your doorstep to make a scene!"

Yu Honghua pinched her collar and glared at Jiang Xiaohe.

"What? Are you not convinced? Are you still making trouble?"

Yu Honghua finally glared at her angrily before turning and leaving.

Jiang Xiaohe said to the people watching outside: "If anyone of you still refuses to accept it, you can come up and try!"

Many people in the crowd lowered their heads. Jiang Xiaohe snorted, turned back to the house and closed the door!

Wang Qiuxia said unhappily, "How can this make sense? We didn't invite her family, but she came up to make trouble. You said her husband is hardworking, but Hu Youliang is lazy and greedy. Did we invite him to cause trouble for us?"

"Yes, I think. She just wants to make money from us for free because we pay others ten cents a day and provide them with lunch!" Zeng Hua said unhappily.

After the two sisters-in-law finished talking, they smiled at each other and continued with their work.

There was already a basket of dolls in the bamboo basket next to them. Chen Xiuquan didn't say anything, but just led Zhang Danniu and Wang Xiaoya to make dolls. She was not from this village, so even if she ran out to say a few words, no one would pay attention to her.

Wang Qiuxia then said to Jiang Xiaohe, "The construction will officially start tomorrow. It's market time. Do you think we should go to town to buy some things?"

Jiang Xiaohe nodded: "Of course I want it."

Early the next morning, Jiang Xiaohe took Wang Qiuxia and Zeng Hua to the town. There were a lot of things to buy. After all, building a house would not be completed in a day or two.

When they arrived in the town, the three of them first went to the grain store, and Jiang Xiaohe bought rice, flour, salt and other things.

Zeng Hua pulled her aside and said, "We farmers are building a house, so there is no need to eat so well. As long as everyone has something to eat, it will be fine."

Jiang Xiaohe smiled and shook her head: "Second Aunt, only when you are full can you have the strength to work. If we eat better, everyone will work harder, right? Besides, this is bought for us to eat!"

After saying that, he smiled and paid the money.

Then they went to buy meat. Now that the weather was cooler, the meat could be kept for a longer time. Jiang Xiaohe asked for ten kilograms and also packed up the remaining bones.

Zeng Hua felt that the purchase was too much, but it was not her money that was being spent, so she said it would not be good to buy too much and did not say anything.

The three of them went to Bush's shop again and bought all the rags in the shop.

Only then did I prepare to go back.

On the ox cart, everyone was envious of them for buying so many things.

Someone immediately asked: "Zhang family, you have renovated the house, so you must have made a lot of money from selling the wine before, right?" The person who asked was Li Taohua's mother, Chen Guifang.

Wang Qiuxia didn't answer.

Jiang Xiaohe raised her eyes and glanced at her: "Why? Aunt Chen is so concerned about other people's affairs, why don't you become the village chief!"

Chen Guifang was suddenly gagged, and a hint of ferocity immediately flashed in her inverted triangle eyes.

"Jiang Xiaohe, why am I so arrogant? I just made a little money, what's so great about it?"

Zeng Hua immediately wanted to curse back on her behalf.

Jiang Xiaohe quickly held her down, looked at Chen Guifang, and smiled: "Aunt Chen is right, I made money, I am awesome, I am great, so what? If you don't like it, don't look at it!"

Chen Guifang was so angry that she wanted to jump off the ox cart and hit her.

Uncle Li, who was driving the ox cart, spoke up at this time: "Enough, stop arguing. If you keep looking for trouble, get off the bus."

Only then did Chen Guifang shut up.

Arriving at the village, Jiang Xiaohe and her friends carried their belongings and went home directly, watching as their houses were torn down.

Jiang Xiaohe brought some water to the workers, but didn't see Zhang Fu, so she called Hongwa and asked, "Where is your uncle?"

Hongwa wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "My uncle-in-law and Brother Daniu went to get some bricks. Uncle Zhang asked for some help yesterday. They came early this morning and calculated the quantity."
