Reborn as a devoted sister-in-law, she leads the entire village to prosperity.

Chapter 55 Yu Banxia's Skill in Winning People's Hearts

Although Yu Meihua's family would not mistreat their daughter, they also wouldn't say they liked her.

It all started with that day when they ate wild boar meat. Their family changed; they became kinder to the sisters, and their home gradually became filled with laughter and joy.

When Mother became gentler, the elders all became more loving.

Yu Meihua knew that all these changes were brought about by Yu Banxia.

"Hey, why are you all so happy?" A group of people gathered at the village entrance, chatting and laughing. Seeing them return with their bounty, they assumed they had found some prey.

Zhao and the others looked at Yu Banxia, ​​who then said to them, "We found some medicinal herbs on the mountain, and the aunties and grandmas helped us dig them out. I told them that if we sold them, we would share the money with them."

"That's great! Next time, we'll go up the mountain with Xia Ya and share in her good fortune."

Because there was hope for the future, and the villagers knew that these women had found medicinal herbs, they were not envious of these women. Instead, they even joked with them.

"Then it's a promise from your auntie, next time I call you, you can't not go, okay?"

"Haha, okay, as long as our Xia girl calls me 'Auntie,' Auntie will definitely go."

"You've been busy in the mountains all afternoon, go back and rest. The mung bean and lily soup this afternoon was delicious, thank you, Xia girl," the aunt said to Yu Banxia again.

Yu Banxia waved goodbye to them with a smile and headed home.

The group went directly to her house as usual, and after an afternoon, the outline of the new kitchen in the yard had already appeared.

Because it doesn't require a deep foundation, a wooden frame can be used for support, and brick walls can be built. The new kitchen can be completed in a maximum of three days.

"Wow, this kitchen is quite large; it makes the yard feel half its original size," Aunt Mei said to Fan Cuilan, looking at the kitchen frame in front of her.

Fan Cuilan smiled at Aunt Mei and said, "It's alright. Xiaxia said that once the workshop is renovated, the kitchen can be demolished or kept. It doesn't matter if it's a little small."

“It’s fine if we don’t demolish it, since your family is going to build a new house anyway,” Zhao said.

Fan Cuilan smiled gently and said that made sense.

Everyone put their things down and prepared to pick some shepherd's purse, but Yu Banxia said, "Let's not pick it now, let's do it tomorrow. The mud will help it last longer."

"Alright, we'll do it tomorrow then. We'll head back now." Aunt Mei picked up her basket, said goodbye, and went home.

Zhao went to visit other people's homes. Before dinner, the news that Yu Banxia would set up a school in the village so that all the young men in the village could go to school had spread throughout the village.

Everyone in Anping Village was overjoyed, while the bricklayers from other villages were filled with envy.

What if they try to steal the lucky girl from Anping Village after only one day in the village?

Why are the people in their village so useless? Why can't anyone give birth to a blessed girl like Yu Banxia?

The next day at noon, everyone in the village, including the bricklayers, tasted the wontons made with shepherd's purse and meat. Just as Yu Banxia had said, they were fresh and fragrant.

After eating the "Fairy Tofu" in the afternoon, they suddenly stopped envying the people of Anping Village and were all extremely grateful to Zhang Quangui.

Because he organized them, they were able to eat so much delicious food.

I've never worked for anyone and eaten so well.

On the first morning, the half-meal was large white steamed buns with meat. The women who delivered the meals said that the lucky girl from the Yu family called it "mo jia rou" (a type of steamed bun with meat).

At noon, there was a large table of food, with meat, vegetables, and soup on every table. Although it was only one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and one soup, you probably couldn't find another one like it in the entire Southern Jin.

In the afternoon, they had mung bean and lily soup with steamed cake, two for each person. It was so fragrant and soft that they almost couldn't bear to eat it and wanted to send it back to their children to try.

The next day was different again. There were big meat buns with porridge. Lunch was still one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and one soup, served with white rice.

Many of the young men among them started crying while eating; they were living the life of gods.

"Work hard, and you won't have to stay in our Anping Village anymore. You can eat as much as you want at home," Zhang Quangui said with a smile, encouraging everyone.

"Foreman, we've worked for you our whole lives. If we betray you, may we be struck by lightning."

Once one is established, another will follow. Although Yu Banxia did not personally intervene, she successfully won over the hearts of her brother-in-law.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed quickly, and the kitchen was completely finished. Simple cabinets were installed on the walls, but the doors had not yet been installed.

The wall is also used as a cabinet, specifically for storing bowls, pots, steamers, and various molds.

"This kitchen is so beautiful! Shall we start working here?" Zhao looked at the newly built kitchen with great delight.

She turned to her husband and said, "Honey, this kitchen is so beautiful, so bright and spacious. We don't need one this big. When the workshop is built, let's ask my nephew-in-law to build one for us too."

“Sure,” Yu Dazhuang replied cheerfully.

There were many such voices, and suddenly one voice said, "Xia girl, will the kitchens in our future welfare housing be like this too?"

Yu Banxia looked at the person who spoke. He was a young uncle who was twenty years old and still unmarried. It seemed that he wanted to be allocated a house for his future marriage.

"Of course, not only will we provide welfare housing for everyone, but we will also provide furniture for everyone."

"Really?" Everyone was even more delighted upon hearing this.

Yu Banxia smiled happily: "I plan to build welfare housing in the row of houses near my home. Once the first batch is built, my relatives and friends will squeeze together to live together for a while."

"Then demolish everyone's houses and replace them all with new ones."

“This way, we can all live in the same beautiful two-courtyard houses without changing the original location, and we won’t need to apply for new land for our houses. What do you all think?”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

"That's a good idea, I agree."

"I agree too."

"Village chief, I don't know if you'll accept newcomers. I've only been in Anping Village for one day, but I don't want to leave. I want to be a villager of Anping Village," a young man from Zhang Village said with a face full of anticipation.

Yu Baishun hesitated for a moment, then looked at Yu Banxia and said, "What do you say, person in charge?"

Everyone burst into laughter and looked at Yu Banxia.

Yu Banxia said, "When the time comes, our village will definitely expand, so it will be better to accept people we know well."

“Here’s what I’m thinking: if we really expand, we can apply for a homestead later and build it together. If you can afford it, you can buy it directly; if you can’t afford it, you can rent it.”

"After a certain number of years, the house belongs to you, but the land deed belongs to our Anping Village."

"However, those who come to Anping Village later do not receive dividends, but can work in workshops, but they are not allowed to access the core area."

"Entering the workshop to work can earn you benefits, and those who reach the required number of years can receive rented housing as a benefit."

"Of course, there are rewards and punishments. Entering the village requires following the rules. If you violate the village rules or betray the workshop, you will be expelled from the village and severely punished."

Yu Banxia's last sentence stunned everyone.

This little girl has such a commanding presence that it makes you want to submit to her.
