The Pastoral Wife: Holding the Doll and becoming the richest man

Chapter 24 The Tool Man Delivered to Your Door

After the two discussed it, there was a big question, where will they live during the construction of the house?Ming Xiaoxiao was silent for a while, although it is not cold now, but the weather is getting colder every day, and then it will be unbearable.

"The old man in Uncle Liu's family passed away the year before last. After his family split up, two rooms were vacated. I'll ask. Let's live next door first. I'll find more people. There should be no problem in about three months." Li Zhirui After looking at Ming Xiaoxiao's idea, he estimated the approximate time.

Ming Xiaoxiao thought about it, thought it was okay, and was about to start to act, when he heard someone knocking on the firewood door of his house outside.

"Xiao Haochen, come and open the door for me!" Ming Xiaoxiao knew it was Bai Huitang's butterfly when he heard the voice.

She knew that this guy would come to harass them if he knew where his home was.

"Brother, you're here!" Haochen got Li Zhirui's signal and hurried to open the door.

The neighbors in the neighborhood saw a guest coming in a carriage from Li Zhirui's house, and they all came out to have a look. Seeing that Li Haochen opened the door for him, they all stuck their heads out to have a look.

Ming Xiaoxiao is a bit strange, she can be sure that Li Zhirui didn't like Bai Huitang before, could it be because they cooperated, so Haochen was asked to welcome Bai Huitang?

It's already a bit impolite for a child to go out and open the door, although an uninvited guest like Bai Huitang just smiled and didn't welcome him.

Li Zhirui went out very face-saving, looked at Bai Huitang who was stunned to visit the half-collapsed thatched cottage in his home, and kindly invited Bai Huitang and Dr. Wang who was driving to pick up things.

"Zhirui, which relative of your family is here?" Aunt Liu's family saw Li Zhirui coming out to pick her up, so she took the opportunity to ask.

Li Zhirui sighed, and said to Aunt Liu: "Didn't my house collapse yesterday? Xiaoxiao, the nephew from the family who is studying medicine, came to have a look."

When Bai Huitang heard this, he was about to refute, and greeted him with a bright smile: "Nephew, come quickly, your aunt has something to tell you!"

She didn't know what Li Zhirui's plans were, but as a family, she needed to cooperate temporarily.

Aunt Liu's family asked quietly through the low wall between the two families: "Has your daughter-in-law found a relative? Don't blame my aunt for talking too much. Your parents bought yours for you. Now that you find such a rich relative, how can you pay attention!"

"It's okay, I just said it with a smile, and I won't leave in the future." Li Zhirui knew that Aunt Liu's intentions were good, and he didn't mind, "Auntie, our west house has collapsed, and I want to discuss something with you and uncle. Take care of your relatives and find you later."

Aunt Liu's family nodded, thinking that she wanted to borrow their vacant house, and she would clean up for them in a while. Her family had just handed over Shu Xiu, and money was a little tight.

"Your family is a bit like a grand banquet. Why is your elder brother so enthusiastic about me?" Bai Huitang felt a little bad, "Do you want me to buy you a house? Such a small matter can't make such a big noise !"

"First, we didn't invite you to come; second, I'm afraid of being tricked when I buy a house." Ming Xiaoxiao brought a bowl of sugar water to Bai Huitang and Doctor Wang. Hearing Bai Huitang's unpleasant words, he retorted unceremoniously go back.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong, but I bet, your elder brother is going to plot against me!" Bai Huitang took a sip of sugar water and felt much better. Although he felt uneasy, he should calm down and say something nice.

Ming smiled and ignored him, watched Li Zhirui who had just finished talking with Aunt Liu's family come in, glanced at him, and found that Li Zhirui blinked his left eye, and knew that he must have plotted with Bai Huitang.

Ming Xiaoxiao moved the bench in the yard to the door of the east room and sat with Li Haochen at the door of the east room, watching Li Haochen talk to Bai Huitang.

"Why is Doctor Bai here today?" Li Zhirui asked calmly, with a smile, he didn't know why this Doctor Bai came here, but he knew.

Bai Huitang paused for a moment, then smiled suddenly: "I originally thought that Dr. Ming of your family was the smartest, but suddenly I discovered that you are the shrewdest."

That day, Li Zhirui and Doctor Wang came with officers and soldiers, and found that Second Young Master Bai had hidden something in the flowers when he was taken away.Li Zhirui picked it up, originally intending to return it to Bai Huitang, but found that it was the letter between Bai Huitang and Doctor Liu.

He didn't know a few words, but he still saw the words "Bai", "Liu" and "Xianghe Inn" in the past few days, and after thinking about it, he put them away.

Originally, he wanted to show it to Ming Xiaoxiao, but when he heard Doctor Wang secretly discussing the next plan with another doctor, he understood that although the plan was made by Mrs. Bai San, the place where they lived was Bai San. The young master leaked it.

"Speaking, needless to say, I'm not a pushy person. It's our little people's greatest wish to have a family's food and clothing." Li Zhirui took out the letter paper and a small pendant, "You should do one thing. These are all returned to you."

Bai Huitang looked at the letter paper and the small pendant, and suddenly asked, "What's your relationship with Cui Kai?"

Li Zhirui smiled and said calmly, "Have you considered it?"

"Forget me, tell me, what's the matter?"

Li Zhirui took out the design drawing of his own house, handed it to Bai Huitang, and said to him, "We have to live in our house for two months. We need blue bricks for the walls, gray tiles for the tiles, and mahogany for the tables, chairs and benches."

Bai Huitang didn't quite believe it, and asked suspiciously: "It's just such a small matter, why are you playing such a big card?"

"Answer or not? If you don't agree, I can do it myself. But Doctor Bai may not be able to take this letter paper and this pendant back." Li Zhirui knew very well the function of this pendant, and it was impossible for Bai Huitang to refuse.

The three of them discussed again, and Li Zhirui sent Bai Huitang away.

Ming Xiaoxiao didn't know what was going on, but Bai Huitang promised to bring someone to build a house for them tomorrow.

"Haochen, go to the next door and play with brother Ergou for a while, mother and your father to discuss something." Ming Xiaoxiao arranges the children out first, the next conversation is not suitable for children to listen to.

Haochen obediently went to Ergou's house next door, closed the door with a smile, and examined Li Zhirui.

"I'll say anything, don't be angry!" Li Zhirui was afraid that Ming Xiaoxiao would really get angry with him, so he quickly replied, "You didn't care too much before, Cui Jian and I learned carpentry for a while, and his pendant is a key. They should have one at home. A lock that needs to be unlocked may not be able to open even if there is a key, I can help them open it."

"I don't know much about letter paper. It should be very important, so I put it away."

Ming Xiaoxiao thinks this is good, Li Zhirui is very concerned about her paying to build the house, and Bai Huitang delivered it to the door himself, so don't blame Li Zhirui for being cruel.

"Do you think it's not good for me?" Li Zhirui knows that scholars are all about character, he has never read a book, and he doesn't need to be polite to Bai Huitang for indirectly harming them and asking for himself.

So he was a little nervous.

"No, this tool is delivered to the door. It is not for nothing, and the lock that can make people like Huadie care so much must be very important. You help him unlock it and he helps you build the house. It's fair."
