Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Old Man Qiao knew that it was time to put the issue of building a house on the agenda.

He put down his pipe and said, "Sickle, come with grandpa."

It was still dark outside, and the wind was a little chilly.

Old Man Qiao led Qiao Jianer in a circle and said, "Look carefully, the area where Grandpa is walking is our homestead."

Qiao Jianer saw that the place where Old Man Qiao was standing was quite far away from the house and was almost twice as big as the other one.

As he walked, he said, "Don't look at us being poor in the past. We have a large homestead. My grandfather originally secured a large piece of land for our family, thinking that even if we can't build a large courtyard for the time being, what if we can build one later, or what if our descendants can build one."

"I waited and waited until they died, but my grandfather didn't get his wish, and neither did my father. My life is almost over, and I thought there was no hope. I never thought that you, Jian'er, would suddenly come to your senses and bring blessings to our family."

Old man Qiao said this with some sadness, but there was a smile on his face.

Qiao Jianer followed his grandfather along the circle.

On the west side is the road passing by the entrance, and on the south side are two households, one of which is the Qi family.

Therefore, the Qiao family’s residential land is a large area extending to the north and east.

After following Old Man Qiao for a walk, Qiao Jianer already had an idea in his mind.

There is no problem in building a yard that is twice as big as the current one, and there is no need to apply for expansion of the homestead again.

The remaining space can be enclosed and used to plant fruit trees, flower trees, etc.

Thinking of the fragrant flowers in spring and summer and the abundant fruits on the branches in autumn, Qiao Lianer is also full of anticipation.

This is the pastoral life she longs for most.

There is a yard filled with the smell of fireworks, flowers and fruits, and the fragrance of rice comes from the rice fields. It is so beautiful that it is indescribable.

In the world she came from, she became a corporate slave after graduating from university, on call 24 hours a day, and was treated like a beast of burden.

She had no regrets about coming here. Instead, she felt that it was the beginning of a new life, not working for a boss, but working for herself.

After arriving in the county town and arranging the food, Qiao Jianer began to prepare to build a house.

The county town has a special brick and tile factory, a timber factory, and a special construction team.

Qiao Jian'er went to the brick and tile factory and the lumber mill and ordered the finest bricks, tiles, and lumber available to ordinary people. The bricks were blue, the tiles red. The glazed tiles were truly beautiful, their luster flowing and breathtaking, but they were not suitable for use except in temples, the royal family, the residences of princes, and the residences of officials of certain ranks.

Except for the imperial wood, other good woods are available to ordinary people. She asked for several kinds of precious wood, such as nanmu, huanghuali wood, camphor wood, etc.

When she went out this morning, she took out one hundred taels from Old Lady Qiao and paid a deposit first. She would pay the rest of the money when the material was ready and started to be shipped.

There are 20 people in a construction team, and she directly hired three teams, all of which have a good reputation, skilled technology and rich experience. She wanted to complete it within a month, the faster the better, and spend most of the money she had on it.

Regardless of whether what the uncle said was true or not, it would always be a good idea for her to be prepared, and the house had to be built anyway.

If it is built quickly, everyone can move in as soon as possible, and it will be easier for my brothers to find wives.

The rainy season lasts for half a month and there is no change every year, but Qiao Jianer still leaves room for maneuver and sets the time as early as twenty days later and at the latest one month in advance.

Selecting bricks and tiles, selecting wood, and selecting people, Qiao Lian'er drove a horse-drawn carriage around the county town. After most of the day, he was so tired that he felt dizzy and his mouth was dry.

On the way, she also had to go to replenish ingredients for stall number eight.

After drinking a large bowl of divine water, I felt better.

However, when she returned to the stall, everyone noticed that beads of sweat were rolling down her forehead and she looked exhausted.

"Jian'er, take a rest. You are really exhausted." Qiao Yunni took a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from her forehead, her eyes full of heartache.

Qiao Jianer took a corn cob and started to eat it. Although he had taken time to eat at noon, he was very physically exhausted from constantly moving around.

Seeing a jar on the stall, she asked, "Mom, what is that?"

"That's the pickled kimchi from Ling Yin's family. Ling Yin came over just now and insisted on giving me this jar of kimchi."

"Ah, this girl just felt that we took too many things from us yesterday, and since the carriage ride was free, she had to bring us something."

"Such a big jar, I'm afraid it must be filled with all the pickled ones at home, enough for our family to eat for many meals."

Dayong said, "I just tasted a piece, it's delicious, Jian'er, you try it."

As he said this, he picked up a few slices of the tenderest cabbage.

Qiao Jianer tasted it and found it sour, crispy and delicious. Because it used mustard and minced ginger, it had a unique aroma.

"The craftsmanship is really good, it tastes even better than the ones sold on the street," said Qiao Jianer.

"Has Sister Ling Yin returned home yet?"

"I don't know. She just put her things down and left." Qiao Yunni said, "Jian'er, do you have something to talk to her about?"

"Well, I think this kimchi is so delicious. If I make it and sell it, there will definitely be a lot of people buying it."

Qiao Lian'er could see that the Ling family's living conditions were average. She could tell from the awkward look on her mother's face when she took the snacks that they seldom bought these to eat.

If this becomes a good business, it can still bring a lot of improvements to life.

"But renting a stall costs a lot of money. Even those stalls in remote streets cost three or four taels a month."

"Mom, I have a plan. I'll go find out if Sister Ling Yin is still here."

It's only the middle of the afternoon now, maybe people are still on the streets.

After finishing the corn cob in his hand, Qiao Jianer drove the carriage off again.

She didn't hold out much hope. If Ling Yin had come specifically to deliver the jar, she would be home soon.

Yesterday, the mother and her two children bought so many things that they won’t be buying any additional household items for the time being.

So, Qiao Jianer chased straight to the city gate.

"Jian'er, I'll go with you." Dayong caught up and let Ada take over his work.

"Brother Dayong, there's no need. You just stay busy here. I can do it alone." Qiao Lian'er said this deliberately and stopped the carriage.

Why does she feel that her eldest cousin is becoming less and less valuable?

"You've been busy running around building the house, it's hard enough. Let me see if there's anything I can help with." Dayong got on the carriage directly: "Let's go."

Qiao Jianer looked a little helpless, because she was also looking for a wife for her eldest cousin.

Sure enough, at the exit of the city, Ling Yin and her brother were seen standing on the roadside, trying to stop a carriage. Just then, a carriage was stopped by her.

"Sister Ling Yin." Qiao Jianer shouted.

Ling Yin was about to get on the carriage, but stopped when she heard the words, looked at Qiao Jianer, and then at Qiao Dayong.

"Sister Jian'er, what are you doing—?"

Qiao Jianer pulled her aside and said, "Sister Ling Yin, I'll tell you a way to make money."
