After reading it, Zhang Xintong went home and continued to clean the house. She had almost finished cleaning and just needed to change some new bedding.

Nine days later, Zhang Zhenye brought Qian Yuzhu and Zhang Ruoan home, paid the remaining fees to the escort agency, and arranged for them to rest in the inn for one night. They were completely safe.

Qian Yuzhu’s dowry was really huge. She didn’t bring anything worthless. She simplified it again and again and brought 18 large boxes full of valuable things.

She is plump and beautiful, about 165cm tall and weighs 140kg. Zhang Zhenye likes this kind of girl, who looks very blessed.

Qian Yuzhu brought gifts for everyone, including ginseng for grandparents, good wine for Zhang Dahui, gold bracelet for Li Hehua, and facial powder for Zhang Xintong. She also selected a piece of fine cloth for each person.

The Zhang family certainly didn’t have these good things and couldn’t compare with the wealthy families, but they also attached great importance to it and gave gifts to everyone.

Zhang Xintong couldn't take the items out of her space, but she lovingly made two gifts for her. Qian Yuzhu loved them dearly: a crib for her child to sleep in, and a stroller for her to push. Both were made of high-quality wood, polished to a smooth finish without a single burr.

Qian Yuzhu brought a nanny and a maid with her. If she brought more children, the Zhang family would have no place to live. Having a crib and a stroller would save a lot of trouble.

Zhang Xintong had already cleaned up the rooms. Zhang Zhenye and Qian Yuzhu still lived in Zhang Zhenye's room, and the nanny and the maid lived in the remaining empty room of the Zhang family, which was just right.

The decoration, furnishings and bedding in the house were all newly replaced by Zhang Xintong. Although the house looks old from the outside, it is very comfortable once you move in. Even Li Hehua feels ashamed of herself for this. She didn't expect her daughter to be so capable.

"Sister-in-law, do you think it's okay?"

The Zhang family’s house is definitely not comparable to the Qian family’s. The rooms are very small, but they are made very warm and beautiful by Zhang Xintong.

The entire house is insulated to protect the children from cold. From the beautiful curtains and exquisite dressing table to the large, sturdy double bed, the quilts are fluffy and well-drying, and the covers are clean and beautiful, no detail has been neglected.

Qian Yuzhu holds Zhang Xintong's hand

"Thank you, sister-in-law!"

Zhang Xintong also held Qian Yuzhu's hand in return

"No need to thank me. Mother prepared all the food. I'll just do some work. Sister-in-law, welcome to join the Zhang family and become part of our family. Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, and I all like you very much. We will live together in the future. If you have anything you are not used to, just tell us and we will try our best to follow your habits."

Qian Yuzhu was very moved. She was very nervous before coming, but she finally felt relieved after meeting the Zhang family. They were all easy to get along with and were very nice to her.

"Okay! Thank you! Thank you, Grandpa, Grandma, and Mom and Dad too."

To the left of the Zhang family's house was Liu Meifeng's, and to the right was vacant land. Zhang Dahui had already applied to the village for a large plot of land for a homestead. He had originally intended to give it only to Zhang Zhenye, but Zhang Xintong also wanted it, so he asked for a larger plot.

Both men and women in the village can apply for homesteads, which is also the rule in the village. However, most daughters will get married when they reach a certain age, so they generally do not apply.

Zhang Xintong opened the window and pointed to the open space on the right.

"Sister-in-law, that piece of vacant land is the homestead that Dad and the village chief asked for for me and my brother. If you want to move out and live on your own, you can build a house there. We can build whatever you like. Dad and Mom said they will pay for the house, so you don't have to worry about anything."

Qian Yuzhu definitely wanted to build a house and live alone, but she didn't feel comfortable doing so.

"Your brother and I just came back and built a house. Wouldn't it be bad if you want to go out and live alone?"

Zhang Xintong smiled and shook her head

"Don't worry! My grandfather is the elder of the clan, no one dares to say anything. Besides, you guys are right next to our house, you can see him every day, it's okay."

Qian Yuzhu smiled happily

"Then I'll discuss it with Zhenye tonight."

Zhang Xintong nodded

"it is good!"

Qian Yuzhu discussed building a house with Zhang Zhenye that night, and Zhang Zhenye agreed without much thought. It was right next to his home, and his family also agreed, so he naturally had no objections. Besides, Qian Yuzhu had been a precious, wealthy lady since she was a child, and he didn't want her to suffer with him. He hadn't protected her well in his previous life in the dream, so he would definitely make her happy and healthy in this life.

Construction began quickly on the house, along with Zhang Xintong's. Unlike other families who had to think twice before building multiple houses, the Zhang family had few children, so building two houses was no problem. They took the land for the homestead, as it would be useless if they didn't build on it, so they just gave it to their daughter as a dowry.

Zhang Xintong hadn't expected such a surprise. She'd assumed the house couldn't be built until Lin Shaoyu came to propose, but now everything was settled. From then on, she and Lin Shaoyu would spend half of each year in Shangjing and half in the oasis. She quite liked it here; it felt like a peaceful and tranquil paradise.

The houses were built very quickly. Both Zhang Zhenye and Zhang Xintong's houses were two-story buildings, but Zhang Zhenye's house was bigger, with eighteen rooms upstairs and downstairs combined. The couple wanted to have more children and also wanted to bring a few more servants who stayed in Liangcheng, so they built a very large house.

Originally, the family wanted to build a bigger house for Zhang Xintong, but Zhang Xintong refused. She didn't want to have so many children. Her house only has six livable rooms. Although it is much smaller than Zhang Zhenye's house as a whole, each room is very large.

Zhang Zhenye's house is next to the Zhang family, while Zhang Xintong's house is next to Zhang Zhenye's house, separated from the Zhang family by one. Zhang Xintong thinks it's a good idea, as it will be more convenient for her to live with Lin Shaoyu.

The news that the Zhang family built a house for their son and daughter caused a sensation in the village, and those who had already taken a fancy to Zhang Xintong were even more excited. Although the villagers in the village had lived in the oasis for generations, their conditions were still different.

Grandpa Zhang is the elder of the clan, so naturally he gets a larger share of the inn's profits. Zhang Dahui and Li Hehua are also capable, and their family is well-off. After Zhang Zhenye came back, he went back to the inn and worked as a waiter. The Zhang family is one of the best in the village.

Zhang Xintong was beautiful, and the young man was attracted to her. With a house as a dowry, the young man's family was also attracted. So, when she came to discuss marriage, countless people came to her house.

Recently, when walking in the village, Zhang Xintong always meets young men who are courting her. They either give her wild flowers or food, which makes her not want to go out.

The same as Zhang Xintong is Li Hehua. Zhang Xintong is surrounded by young men, while Li Hehua is surrounded by the young men's mothers. They all want to marry into the Zhang family.

Over the years, Li Hehua knew what every family in the village was like. She had a few families she liked, and it depended on which one Zhang Xintong liked more.

"Girl, which boy do you like? Do you have any favorites?"

Zhang Xintong shook her head

"Mom, I don't like these. I like handsome and elegant men."

Li Hehua frowned

“But there’s nothing like this in the village?”

Zhang Xintong hugged Li Hehua and acted coquettishly

"Mom, my brother can go out and look for her, so I want to go out and look for her too, is that okay?"

Li Hehua looked serious

"No, your brother is a man, he won't be bullied when he goes out. What if you are a woman and get bullied outside?"
