After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs
Chapter 70 Time Waits for No One
She remembered that the carpenter who made the furniture was named Lin, and she would take Old Mrs. Tian with her tomorrow to ask about the price.
After a busy day, she didn't even know Xiao Pan had returned.
When Xiao Pan saw his mother busy in the house, he tactfully did not disturb her.
When Zhao Huanxi finished drawing the rough blueprint and came out of the house, it was already dark outside. The yard was quiet with only two dogs watching, and there was no sign of the children.
He slapped his thigh and said, "Oh no, I have to go cook."
As soon as she entered the kitchen, she found that Xiao Pan had already cooked the meal and was about to invite her.
"Mom, it's time to eat." Xiao Nian was putting chopsticks on the table.
Zhao Huanxi sat down very sensibly and said to them with a smile:
"Oh, I can eat ready-made food today, not bad, thank you for your hard work~"
Xiao Pan brought the dishes over and spoke softly:
"Mom has been working hard these past few days. This is what we should do."
She brought over a few more bowls of rice before taking off her apron and sitting down with Xiao Yin.
Zhao Huanxi looked down at today's vegetable and said: Wow, this big piece of fat meat, wow, this piece of meat...
"Mom, try it quickly. I haven't cooked for a long time. Although the taste is not as good as mom's, my second and third sisters all say it's delicious." Xiao Pan waited for Zhao Huanxi's praise with starry eyes, just like a little puppy wagging its tail.
Zhao Huanxi picked up the fried pork slices with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and tasted it, then praised:
"Hmm... This tastes good. Danier, you are really amazing. I give you a thumbs up." He gave a thumbs up.
Although he didn't know what his mother meant, he knew that she was praising him, and Xiao Pan felt so happy that his heart was about to burst with joy.
He picked up some roasted meat with chopsticks for his mother before starting to eat.
"Big sister, this roast pork is so delicious, big sister is really amazing."
"I think big sister is amazing too."
The two sisters began to take turns praising Xiao Pan, praising her to the skies, and suddenly they felt their confidence was overflowing.
By the end of the meal, Zhao Huanxi was already greasy from the fat meat. However, he was oblivious to the sight of the maids still devouring the food.
It reminded her of her childhood, when she was also very poor. For example, she could only eat meat once in a long time, and would only eat a rich meal during the Chinese New Year.
One Chinese New Year, my grandmother cooked a sweet white pork dish. I loved the fatty meat and ate a ton of it. Since then, I've never eaten fatty meat again. The sight of it makes me sick.
That is to say, after traveling here, this body had never eaten much meat before, so it can eat a little bit now. Otherwise, it would vomit at the sight of it.
I went out to feed the hens, and when I came back, the maids had finished eating and were washing dishes.
Zhao Huanxi looked at this scene and really wished that time would stay at this moment forever. How wonderful that would be.
Unfortunately, time will never stay where it is because of your thoughts. More than half a month has passed in a flash, and Zhao Huanxi has been very busy during this half month.
The weather is getting hotter day by day, but the rain from the sky seems reluctant to stop, with only a few drops falling from time to time.
Fortunately, Zhao Huanxi has a small well at home, so he can use it to water the vegetables every day. The beans in the backyard are beginning to bear fruit, the melons are beginning to bloom, and even the eggplants have grown some medium-sized fruits.
In the past half month, Zhao Huanxi has not had a single day off. He either goes to the foundation to keep an eye on it, goes to the town to buy materials, or goes to the carpenter Lao Lin's house to check on his furniture.
At that time, Zhao Huanxi took the drawings he had drawn to Lao Lintou's house to ask him to make furniture. He was a little surprised. The size of the drawings and some storage grids made him shine.
The old man also wanted to challenge himself, so he took on the job with great excitement.
I heard from Old Mrs. Tian that this old man has very good skills, and he is the one who made the food for Old Mr. Lu.
Not including the wood, the bed, wardrobe, table, chairs, benches, etc. were all included in the price. Anyway, Zhao Huanxi gave him everything in the house that needed wood. The total cost was more than 30 taels. Finally, under the eloquence of Mrs. Tian, the old woodsman finally agreed to the deal for 30 taels.
Zhao Huanxi paid a deposit of ten taels of silver, and the balance would be paid after the inspection was completed. After all, they were in the same village, and Old Lin was not afraid that Zhao Huanxi would run away, so he agreed.
The foundation at the back...oh no, it can't be called a foundation now, because the frame of the house has been built, the walls have been built, and now the roof is being built.
The progress of the roof is a little slower, but fortunately there is strength in numbers. According to Lu Lin and his wife, it is estimated that the roof and floor tiles will be completely completed in another half month.
Zhao Huanxi was overjoyed at the news. He didn't plan to hold a beam-warming banquet after the house was completed in two days. He would hold a moving banquet after the house was built.
Another thing happened in the village these two days. Liu Dashan and Zhang Yanzi’s eldest son Liu Yuanbao returned from the town.
When he entered the house, he didn't find his mother. Instead, he found the widow dressed in red and green. He was immediately furious. Later, Liu Dashan hesitantly explained that he had divorced his mother.
Later, Liu Yuanbao learned that his mother had moved into a dilapidated thatched house in the village. When he went to look for her, he discovered that she was so sick that she couldn't even get out of bed.
Later I heard that he invited Doctor Lu to treat his illness, and he separated from Liu Dashan and lived with Zhang Yanzi.
Zhao Huanxi suddenly thought of the explosive scene he heard in the firewood pile last time. He wondered if this guy knew that there was already a green grassland on his head.
By the time the new floor tiles were laid, summer had already arrived. After finally waiting until the work was almost finished, Zhao Huanxi also wanted to prepare the things for the wedding banquet.
"Huanxi, let me go with you. I'm strong and can help you move things." Xu Qingzhao came to her house at some point.
After asking Patriarch Lu to look at the date, we decided to set it on the first day of June, which was only three or four days away.
The weather was hot at that time, and several children developed eczema, and even I was not spared.
Thinking that the new house would have better ventilation, we hired a few more men and women, which sped up the progress a lot, and we were able to complete the project many days ahead of the original plan.
"Would that be too much trouble for you?"
Zhao Huanxi really needed help and wanted to ask Old Lady Tian to help, but Old Master Lu was not feeling well due to the hot weather, and Lu Lin and his wife were busy with her house, so they had to let Old Lady Tian take care of Old Master Lu at home. There was no way for her to go to town with her.
Xu Qingzhao smiled and said, "No, it's not a big deal. I've been eating a lot of good food from your house lately."
During this period, Xu Qingzhao would sometimes bring over game he hunted, and occasionally leave some for him to eat, but not much.
"Then we have to leave early tomorrow morning. Let's go early and come back early."
"it is good."
Xu Qingzhao showed a faint smile on his face, turned around and went back to his home with light steps.
Zhao Huanxi didn't have time to appreciate his mood. It was getting late and he had to cook dinner quickly.
At this time, Xiao Pan came over with a piece of clothing and tried it on Zhao Huanxi.
"Mom, try it on. This is the first new dress your Danni made for you." Xiaoyan said proudly. Zhao Huanxi couldn't help but pinch her little face.
In the two months since Zhao Huanxi traveled through time, he has eaten well and slept soundly. His daughters have gained a lot of weight, especially Xiao Nian, who has almost become as big as a little bun in more than two months.
Even Dahei and Xiaohei have grown a lot. They are now full of energy every day and seem to be ready to destroy the house.
I took Xiao Pan's clothes and went into the house to try them on...
"Daniel, why is one side of your dress longer than the other? I see. You want me to wear half in summer and the other half in winter, right?"
Zhao Huanxi couldn't help but joked that the main problem was that the dress was half short-sleeved and half long-sleeved, and the waistline in the middle was crooked, which made it look incredibly funny.
"Hahaha, Mom, stop teasing me. Take it off quickly and I'll change it."
Even she couldn't help laughing out loud.
Zhao Huanxi was delighted to see Xiao Pan smiling as if she were a flower, completely different from the timid Xiao Pan at that time, and he felt a sense of accomplishment.
