Otherworldly Days

When Cao Xiangnan woke up the next day, without exception, he had two panda eyes and two dark circles hanging under his eyelids. He didn't sleep well last night, and he was not in a good mood this morning.The soup in the pot was ready, and he drank two big bowls of soup before he felt a little better.

"What? It must be those people in the village. Damn it, if they are caught, they will be sent to the government." Sun Bailian jumped up when she heard that Qi Wanfeng was attacked by thieves. A good thing was done by those sneaky people.

"Wan Feng, how are you doing?"

"We have nothing."

Cao Gang asked with a sullen face, "How many of them have you seen?"

"Four." Cao Xiangnan also had doubts in his heart, and the figure who ran out at the end was too familiar.He could recognize the people who had lived together for more than ten years even when they turned into ashes. Since his brother came to visit his house at night, he would find it ridiculous to say it.

"I'm afraid those people will come again. I think they came to steal the horse. Last night we woke up when we heard the sound of the horse, and those people also ran away when they came out. Fortunately, nothing was missing at home." There are a lot of things, not to mention rice and grain, there is also some silver in the house, if it is stolen, it will be gone.

Fortunately, there are people here at all times, and they are not afraid of thieves coming to visit during the day and entering the house to steal things.

The problem is that he lives far away from the village, and even if he is shouted by a thief in the middle of the night, no one will help him catch the thief, so this is also a difficult thing to do.They can't even stay awake just to catch a few small thieves, and stay here to catch people.

"Think about this matter and see how to deal with it." Cao Xiangnan pondered in his heart and said.

"Yeah." Cao Gang nodded, he was also thinking of a way...

When Sun Ji heard this, his face was also solemn, and he obviously thought of this.

The rice noodles in the kitchen came out one after another, and they were quickly loaded into the carriage.

The nearby land has been bought, and they can start building houses here.Cao Xiangnan has done the calculations, he has some silver taels in his hand now, and it is not a problem to build a green brick and tile house. There are still a batch of orders at Yipinzhai in the back, and there will be only a lot more in the future. Can also continue to come.

"Brother Cao Gang, I will go to the town with you in a while, and find a gentleman to see what time it is to build a house. The fence here is too low, and it is easy for thieves to come and go at night. When the time comes to build the house, remove the fence. Make it higher." Now they are the ones who are worried about this place, and the building of the house is also on the agenda, and Cao Xiangnan also wants to build the house as soon as possible.

"Well, I will go with you later." Cao Gang said.

Cao Dapeng and Sun Ji also knew that Cao Xiangnan was going to build a new house. They all remembered that when they first came here, it was still an uninhabitable place to live in. However, if the house has money, it would be better to build it earlier. I am also worried about being stolen in the middle of the night.

"Xiang Nan, if you need any help, just ask." Sun Ji said.

"Well, it's done." Cao Xiangnan patted Sun Ji on the shoulder and said, "If we build a house by then, I'm afraid we'll have to find some people from the village to help.

"There's still me, and there's me." The big fool yelled, as if he was afraid that people would forget him.

"I know." Cao Xiangnan laughed, and he was very grateful to these brothers in his heart, otherwise Cao Xiangnan would not have the blood relationship and family relationship today. In the face of money and interests, they are as indifferent as water. In fact, people are selfish. He has already tasted all kinds of heartache and pain in it.Fortunately, without those people in Cao's compound in this life, he still has Qi Wanfeng and his children, and these brothers, he is not struggling alone.

Every morning on the pier starts with excitement. They arrived in the town and set up their stalls.The boats docked here will have people come down to purchase items and board the boat. As soon as they opened the stall today, some people came to buy more than half of the pho, and bought a lot of other food, and it was a big deal as soon as the door opened.

In the morning, someone will come to buy food, eat a bowl of porridge and a serving of rice noodles for breakfast.The business of their stall is very good every day. If someone comes to buy things on board like today, if they are generous, they will not have to worry about the business for that day.

"You stay here and watch. Let's go back and prepare some more." Fortunately, it was still early, and the carriage traveled quickly to and from the village and town. Cao Xiangnan told Sun Ji to look at the stalls, and he got into the carriage and left with Cao Gang.

They bought something in the town and went back to Caojia Village. Seeing Fulang who came back so soon, Qi Wanfeng couldn't help asking, "Why did you come back so soon today?"

"I met a big customer this morning." Cao Xiangnan told about the good things he encountered as soon as he opened his business this morning.

Qi Wanfeng smiled and said, "That's good."

His belly is gradually getting pregnant now, and he is tired after standing for a long time. Fortunately, he is not alone in the work at home, and everyone helps.Fu Lang is also reluctant to let him be too tired, he will pay attention to his body now, if he can't hold on, he will sit down and rest, not forcing himself like before.

"Father." Kangkang called out when he saw Father who had returned.

The rice noodle in the kitchen was still steaming, Cao Gang went into the kitchen to help as soon as he came back, reached out and touched his son's head, the father and son had the same size two faces, even the eyebrows were wrinkled in the same way.

Cao Xiangnan went to soak ten catties of rice, and then started to process other things. The processed pig offal was stewed in the pot, and another pot of braised pork was cooked. The smell of the stewed meat in the two pots was overflowing.

The children in the house woke up, An An called Eminem inside, and Qi Wanfeng went in when he heard the sound.The second boy of Sun Bailian's family also woke up, with sleepy eyes on his face, no need to pay attention, Sun Bailian is still busy in the kitchen, and has no time to take care of his boy.

"Wanfeng, you need to shush." ​​Jing Bao rubbed his eyes, opened his mouth and yawned.

Qi Wanfeng took the child down and let him go down to pee by himself.

There are still many differences between the younger brother and the boy in some respects. An An in his family is much more delicate than the two boys in Sun Bailian's family. He has not been feeling well for the past two days, so he clings to him even more.

The two children in the room woke up, Qi Wanfeng led the two children out, and put porridge in a bowl for the little ones to eat.

"Wan Feng, you go have breakfast first." Cao Xiangnan said.

"Okay." Now he is also hungry easily, and he is hungry after getting up and busy all morning, so Qi Wanfeng also sat down to eat with the little ones.

Now everyone knows how things are done, there is always someone to fill in when there is a spare moment, and everyone is busy with their own business.The food stalls in the town are set up, followed by the efforts of all of them.

The second batch of pho was ready, and along with everything else, they sent it to town.

At this time, the fortune teller also set up a stall and began to tell people's fortunes. Cao Xiangnan found the fortune teller here.There was a "Li Banxian" signboard, and a blind fortune teller was sitting in front of the stall. When someone came over, his blind eyes moved, and he asked, "Boy, can you give me your hand."

"Old man, I'm not a fortune teller. I'm here to ask you if you have a good day recently. I want to see if you can build a house." Cao Xiangnan said.

"Build a house." Li Banxian pinched his fingers and calculated a date, and he said, "Ten days will be a good day."

"Sir, are you free today? Can you go to Caojia Village with me? I'll pick you up in a carriage and help me see where the house is built." Cao Xiangnan thought for a while and asked again.

He didn't believe in these things before, but now he can't help but not believe in them. Some things are better to be believed than not to be believed.It is always good to find a gentleman to see the date and the place before building a house. You still have to believe in Feng Shui.

"Well, let's go." Li Banxian stroked the goatee and nodded.

Turning around, Cao Xiangnan went to call Cao Gang over, and asked him to come and take the old man to Caojia Village to show him the land.The business at the stall was handed over to Sun Ji, and they were relieved that Sun Ji was now in charge of it alone.

"Old man, please get into the carriage." When Cao Xiangnan helped the old man into the carriage, the old man grabbed his hand and said this, but he didn't pull it away.

"This fate..." Li Banxian, who was blind in both eyes, counted his fate for most of his life. It’s a lifetime of great wealth.”

Cao Xiangnan was delighted when he heard it. Everyone likes to hear a fortune teller say that you are rich. He just thought that this blind fortune teller told everyone that.

They went back to Cao's Village, Cao Xiangnan led Li Banxian to the land he bought, and asked, "Where do you think is better to build a house?"

"Just the area under my feet, with this as the center, you build here to ensure the prosperity and safety of your descendants." Li Banxian stopped moving when he came here, stomped his feet, and said.

"Thank you, old man." Cao Xiangnan bowed his hands and said.

He took out the red envelope he had prepared a long time ago from his arms, handed it to the husband, and said, "Small care is not enough to respect, and I hope you don't dislike it."

Just at this time, Qi Wanfeng came over, Li Banxian looked at the brother who was coming with his blind eyes, moved his fingers, stared at his belly and said, "Well, this baby is a kid, congratulations .”

Qi Wanfeng was a little scared when he was sized up like this, but he smiled when he heard what Mr. said, "Really?"

"Fu Lang, what I'm carrying is a kid." He grabbed Fu Lang's hand and said.

"It doesn't matter if you are a boy or a brother. They are both our children. I will love him." Seeing Qi Wanfeng happy, Cao Xiangnan also smiled, but in his consciousness, the boy and brother are the same, and they are not No difference.

Hearing this, Li Banxian sighed and said, "You are a good man, and you will be well in the future."

"Thank you, old sir." Qi Wanfeng said.
