Chapter 81 The Old House (February [-]th)
There is no doubt about employing people, and there is no need for doubting people. Since Su Rui decided to use him, she absolutely trusted him.

"Okay, then calculate how much money you need in the early stage, and I will hand over the money to you later, and you will help me arrange all the work in the later stage. Of course, I will not treat you badly."

Chen Cai was a little excited. He didn't expect Su Rui to trust him so much. Originally, he fled to Sujia Village and got separated from his clansmen. His unlimited trust is average.

Su Chang was happy to see that Su Rui had explained everything well, and he didn't say much. He didn't think that Su Rui didn't trust him if he didn't ask him to buy bricks and tiles. On the contrary, he felt that Su Rui trusted him.

There were eighteen rooms originally to be built, but now there are six more rooms, one hut, and one back door. Counting 26 rooms, each room costs one tael of bricks, and 26 rooms are considered to be 26 taels. The wall itself can be built with stones or soil, but Su Rui felt that it was not safe, so she asked to be surrounded by a two-meter-high brick wall, which would cost an additional five taels of silver.

Su Rui went back to the house, took out 35 taels of silver from the space, handed it to Chen Cai 33 taels of silver and said, "Uncle Chen, the brick kilns and tile kilns are far away, I don't feel relieved if you walk there, how about it. You find two taels of silver." If someone goes with you, this extra two taels of silver is considered as money for you to hire a carriage and eat and drink on the road."

Chen Cai took it, and said gratefully: "Su Yatou, thank you for trusting me so much. I will definitely build you the most satisfactory house."

Su Rui smiled and nodded, "Uncle Chen, I believe you."

After discussing it, Chen Cai saw that it was still early, so he circled the place where the foundation needs to be dug. Tomorrow, other people will dig the foundation first, and he will take the two of them to buy bricks and tiles.

Su Chang was happy to see that there was nothing to do with him, and thought that he could still help by going to the county seat.

"Girl Rui, since I have nothing else to do, I'll go to the county seat."

Su Rui felt that Su Changle and the others had really worked hard. They had never had a rest since they started to sell goods and now they have a shop, so they hurriedly stopped them.

"You've been busy for so long, it's time to take a break. When you're proficient in learning and making in the backyard, you can tell Aunt Hua and Aunt Lin that you can go and see it every three or five days in the future. There is no need to do it every day. Then watch."

Su Changle thought that there was indeed some work to be done at home, so he didn't refuse.

"Okay, then I won't go today. It just so happens that there is some work at home, so I'll go back and pick it up."

Sending Su Changle away, Su Rui just wanted to sit down and have a rest when Su Ya knocked on the door and came in.

"Sister Rui"

Su Rui looked at Su Ya helplessly, "...the one who should come is still here"

Su Ya looked at Su Rui embarrassedly, "Sister Rui, I don't want to come either. Grandma asked me to call you."

Su Rui sighed, how could she not know who meant it?
"Hey... I didn't blame you. From the news that I sold wild ginseng, I knew that such a day would come."

"Then are you still going?"

Su Rui nodded, "Go, why not?"

When Su Ying entered the room, she heard that Su Rui was going to the old house, and looked at Su Rui nervously, "Sister, we will go with you."

Su Chenrui was afraid that Su Rui would suffer, so he hurriedly said, "Sister, we will accompany you."

Su Qiao also nodded at the side, as for Su Wan and Su Chennan, they were sleeping and snoring.

Su Rui smiled in relief, thinking that the pain was not in vain, and she was afraid that she would be bullied.

"No, you are here, I can't concentrate, and I have to be distracted to take care of you. But I can handle it myself."

Su Chenrui wanted to say something, but was blocked by Su Rui, "You are at home, take care of your younger siblings, so I don't worry, be good, listen to elder sister."

Su Ying grabbed Su Chenrui and nodded, "Eldest sister, don't worry, I will take good care of my younger siblings."

Su Rui nodded, looked at Su Qiao's worried eyes, reached out and rubbed her face, "Didn't you say you want to cook apple sauce today? Eldest sister is looking forward to seeing the finished product when you come back."

Su Qiao nodded, "Well, I'll go to the cellar to get apples in a while."

Seeing Su Chenrui's hesitant appearance, Su Rui knew that if he didn't arrange something for him, he would definitely be fidgeting all the time, "Chenrui Qiaoer needs to keep stirring applesauce, so you Just help cook the pot."

"Um"

Su Rui made arrangements for her siblings, "Sister Ya'er, let's go! Don't make grandma wait too long."

"Ah."

Walking out of the main room, just in time to see Meng Mingzhou push away and walk in, Su Rui smiled and ignored it.

In the old house, Mr. Su and Mrs. Su sat on the main seat of the main room. Uncle Su, Mrs. Liu, who was married later, Mr. Su and Mrs. Li, Mrs. Su, sat on both sides.

Su Rui stopped at the entrance of the main room, took a deep breath, and then walked in slowly and smiled to greet everyone, "Hello grandpa, grandma, uncle, uncle, aunt."

Uncle Su frowned, dissatisfied that Su Rui ignored Liu Shi, "How did the second child teach you? You don't know how to salute when you meet an elder? Are you so uneducated?"

Su Rui was surprised, "Uncle, didn't I salute you?"

"Your aunt is here, why don't you be polite?"

"I've always thought that the aunt is only the one that the media is marrying. This Liu, huh? How can I call it appropriate?" Su Rui's pretended surprised expression made Liu's face turn pale.

It's true that she wasn't married into Su's family by Ming Media, but Mrs. Su bought it back for five taels of silver, saying she was a flat wife, but no woman in Su's family village looked up to her.

Uncle Su blushed in anger, he didn't know how his relatives in the village were talking, he didn't have the guts to argue with them,?Can Tao not discipline his juniors?

"You little bastard, is this how you talk about your elders? See if I don't take care of you for the second child."

Su Rui looked at him coldly, standing motionless.

"What qualifications do you have to deal with me?"

Uncle Su angrily turned left and right to look for a stick. Seeing that the matter was developing in another direction, Mr. Su raised his hand to stop Uncle Su who was cursing.

"Okay, boss, sit down first and look at your current appearance. Su Rui is a child of our family, how can you yell and scold?"

Uncle Su looked at the old man's eyes and suddenly calmed down. By the way, the main thing now is to ask Su Rui for money, so he can't provoke her.

Uncle Su regretfully watched Uncle Su calm down. He really hoped that he would make trouble as hard as possible, so that he could get more benefits.

"Rui girl, you dug up wild ginseng and sold it for money years ago. The old lady loved you so much, so she didn't want it. Now I dug up another one. If you don't respect your grandma, it won't make sense, right?" Aunt Su saw the old lady Gazing at her, he opened his mouth slowly.

Su Rui sneered, there were waves one after another, if the hard ones didn't work, then the soft ones, there were quite a lot of tricks.

"Why? Auntie usually sells handkerchiefs and purses, and the money is also honoring grandma?"

Aunt Su's heart tightened, how did she know?Uncle Su didn't even know about this, so he calmed down, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did I sell embroidery?"

"Oh? Is that so? Did I make a mistake at the gate of Xiuzhuang a few days ago?"

Su Rui lightly took out a pink and white handkerchief from her sleeve, and looked at it carefully.

Seeing the pattern on the handkerchief in Su Rui's hand, Mrs. Su knew it was made by Aunt Su.She glared at Aunt Su, and signaled to see you later.
