Becoming a stepmother of three children gives me space

Xiao Yunxi didn't wait for Dr. Lu, but waited for Master Bai Chibai who was building the house.

Uncle Tang is a carpenter, so he is good at repairs. But building a house is from scratch, and the load-bearing capacity of the walls and the amount of bricks used all require the control of experienced craftsmen.

Bai Chi held up two design drawings and asked her:

"Are the drawings yours?"

The person who drew the blueprint she drew should be the craftsman that Uncle Tang hired to build the house.

“I drew this…”

"You should be a craftsman who builds houses, right?"

"I trust the people Uncle Tang hired. I only have two requirements: the project must be completed before the end of the year and built strictly according to the blueprints. No unauthorized design changes are allowed."

Master Bai was stunned for a moment, then nodded:

"No problem. Building a house requires filing. Just give me all the design drawings and I'll file them with the county. We can officially start construction tomorrow at the earliest."

“For record?”

Uncle Tang never said that building a house requires filing. Besides, even if it is filed, you don’t need all the drawings, right?

She noticed that when Bai Qi talked about the drawings, there was greed in his eyes. It seemed that what Uncle Tang found was a bit unreliable!

"Old Gu, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you..."

Old Uncle Tang rushed in, and when he saw Bai Qi, the smile on his face disappeared, and he looked terribly gloomy:

"Why are you here!"

There was a lot of information. Xiao Yunxi pointed at Bai Qi and asked:

"Isn't he here to build a house?"

Old Uncle Tang shook his head,

"I wouldn't hire a beast like him."

"He has the blueprints."

Uncle Tang's expression became even more gloomy:

"I clearly gave the blueprints to Old Gu, where did you get them from?"

Bai Qi saw that he was exposed, so he stopped pretending and revealed his cards:

"Since we're old acquaintances, I'll be frank and say, 'Hand over the complete blueprints, and I won't hold you accountable for stealing them.'"

After failing to steal the blueprints, he tried to rob them!

Xiao Yunxi was too lazy to pay attention to him and asked Uncle Tang:

"Is there a feud?"

"He stole the design of the waterwheel that my master had improved, and falsely accused my master of stealing his own design. My master was exiled, and I was also affected. I couldn't earn money as a carpenter."

I see,

Xiao Yunxi hated people who betrayed their teachers and ancestors the most in her life, not to mention that this guy was trying to deceive her. With the Foshan Shadowless Kick, Bai Chi drew an arc and landed in the yard.

boom!

The aunties who were making clothes were shocked. They had no sense of public morality and just threw garbage around.

Xiao Yunxi patted Dabao:

"Do you know why people fly in an arc instead of a straight line?"

Dabao's mouth twitched: Are you sure it's appropriate to discuss this now?

"The arc formed by an object moving horizontally is also called a parabola. It's due to the effect of gravity. This is complicated. I'll teach you another day!"

Uncle Tang silently picked up the blueprints and found that a few were missing. Xiao Yunxi kicked Bai fiercely:

"Where are the remaining drawings?"

"I, I, I don't know. There were only three when I brought it."

"Who gave it to you?"

The man surnamed Bai didn't dare to speak. Hu Zi was a tiger and picked up a stick to beat him.

"Sister Yunxi is asking you a question. Answer me honestly, or I'll beat you to death."

Bang bang bang!

A good son is born under the stick, Bai Chi no longer stubbornly said,

"Master Ma, the horse husband, gave it to me!"

The faces of the people in the yard changed drastically.

Ma Hu is the evil son of the village head. I didn’t expect that he was involved in this matter. This is troublesome.

Old Uncle Tang grabbed Bai Chi by the collar:

"He gave you the blueprints? How did he get them? Where's Lao Gu?"

Bai Chi almost cried:

"I don't know. He asked me to trick him out, and I thought I could make money with the blueprints, so I wanted to get them first. I really don't know where they came from."

Uncle Tang punched him in the face.

"I told you to cheat on the blueprints!"

Then came the second punch.

"I will let you betray your master and ancestors!"

The third punch,

"I will let you commit evil and help the tyrant."

Uncle Tang was venting his anger on behalf of Xiao Yunxi, as well as for himself and his master. Aunt Li was worried that he might be too harsh, so she came over and pulled him away.

Bai Chi whimpered in pain, his nosebleed mixed with tears, he looked as miserable as could be.

"Get out of here now."

He is just someone else's gun, and keeping him is a waste of food. Uncle Tang wanted to go to the town to find the old consultant to clarify the matter, but was stopped by Xiao Yunxi.

Ma Hu is a very sinister person. Uncle Tang might get cheated if he goes to him.

"What do we do with the blueprints? Give them?"

“Once the house is built, the blueprints will no longer be a secret.”

The drawings provided are overview drawings, without top views, plan views, three-dimensional views, dimensions, or reserved piping diagrams. The house built is just a facade.

Besides,

Even if an experienced craftsman does not look at the blueprints, he can basically restore the approximate outline by following the construction of the house or taking a walk around. Therefore, as long as there is a house, the leaked blueprints are just waste paper with more beautiful drawings.

Uncle Tang led people to dig the foundation, but there were no master craftsmen. Xiao Yunxi had to build the house herself.

The aunts continued to make clothes in the yard, and everyone was worried. Aunt Li was pricked by the needle several times, obviously worried about Xiao Yunxi.

Xiao Yunxi was very angry.

She didn't want to confront the village head for the time being, but Ma Cuilan and Ma Hu were causing trouble everywhere. If she didn't say something, she would be unworthy of her identity as a time traveler!

She decided not to sell tofu anymore. She took a bamboo basket and a big axe and went up the mountain. She was going to make the horse owner pay the price tonight.

On the other side,

Bai Chi escaped from Tangjia Village and crawled to the Ma family. He knelt in front of the horse owner and cried with tears and snot:

"Master Ma, please help me. Look at the way they beat me."

Ma Hu's face was gloomy and pale, and it was obvious that he had indulged in excessive sexual activities. He hugged the two women and touched them all over, which made the women angry.

"Master, you are so bad."

"Then do you like it or not."

"I like it very much."

Ma Hu put his hand into the woman's skirt and looked at Bai Chi:

"I can make the decision for you. I can also forgive the 200 taels of silver you owe me and give you another 50 taels. You have to cooperate with me to do something."

Only a fool would refuse the opportunity to get rid of debt and get money.

"It's all up to Master Ma."

Ma Hu showed a sinister smile and waved his hand. Master Bai, who was still in an excited state, was kicked down, and then the servant came up and held him down.

"What is this for?"

"Work with me."

After failing to catch the man in the morning, the frightened bearded man took out a complaint from his pocket and threw it in front of Bai Chi. Bai Chi glanced at it and

"I, Bai Chi, am suing Xiao Yunxi, a peasant woman from Tangjia Village, Luochuan County, for stealing the blueprints and assaulting me, leaving me with disabled legs..."

He looked horrified:

"Master Ma...this...this...what does this mean?"

"literal meaning."

Bai Chi struggled madly, crying and begging for mercy:

"Please let me go. I will pay you back the money I owe you. I can sell the waterwheel design and pay you back. Please let me go... wuwuwu."

Ma Hu sneered,

"You pawned the design to the county pawnshop. Do you think I don't know? Even if it wasn't pawned, the waterwheel design is worthless. The Zheng family behind Linglong Pavilion in the prefecture has made a new replacement. The government will purchase from the Zheng family in the future. Your design is worthless."

Bai Chi was really panicked.

"Master Ma, even if the Zheng family imitates it, they can't get away with it. I will sue them in the government and make them pay compensation. The compensation will definitely be more than 200 taels."

Ma Hu cursed loudly:

"Idiot! What can you use to sue the Zheng family? What can you use to fight the Zheng family? I give you two choices. One is to break your legs and file a complaint with the county. You don't have to pay back the money you owe, and I'll give you 50 taels. The second choice is to sell your wife and daughter to a brothel, send your son to the palace to be a eunuch, and go to the mines yourself."

Bai Chi looked ashen. He couldn't afford the price of the second path and could only accept his fate.

The bearded man picked up a stick as thick as his arm and brought it down hard.

boom!

"Ahhh!!"

The shrill screams could be heard from far away.
