Wearing eighty books, the little widow turns into a rich woman

Wang Zemin opened the courtyard door and saw her stunned: "Li Rong, what happened so early?"

Yang Lirong laughed dryly: "Brother-in-law, I'm going to come and see the bean curd in the elder sister's shop, I forgot how to add gypsum water."

"Oh! Come in quickly, your sister just wants to order tofu curds." Wang Zemin smiled, let her into the courtyard, and closed the courtyard door.

Wang Zhilin, who was turning the millstone on the eaves, curled his lips at Wang Zhixue: "Brother, look at Auntie, you think our family is like his family, and they don't talk too much."

Wang Zhixue didn't say a word. He didn't like his aunt's family either. They were better off than them. The two cousins ​​and the little cousin never said hello to them, and even made fun of them with outsiders.

At Yang Liqun's house, Yang Lirong helped to order the bean curd and press the tofu. Seeing that she made a total of eight versions of tofu and two large buckets of bean curd, she felt that she earned more than five yuan a day, and she became more and more excited when she thought that this business was her own.

After the tofu and curd were ready, everyone had breakfast together, and Wang Zhixue and his brothers left in a hurry.

Yang Lirong thought that there were three people in the eldest sister's family earning money, and felt a little jealous and regretful. She shouldn't have offended Lin Lan, otherwise her family would have been earning money long ago.

Wang Zemin sent Yang Liqun to the entrance of the cave, and then went home to work.

The two sisters sold out the tofu and bean curd, and Yang Liqun really took her to the mason's home to order a stone mill, and the mason asked her to pick it up in three days.

Coming out of the mason's house, Yang Lirong said gratefully, "Thank you sister."

Yang Liqun smiled: "We don't have many sisters. When the old man was around, she always taught us to be kind, so that outsiders would not dare to bully us."

After hearing this, Yang Lirong thought of the past, and felt a little ashamed: "I see, I will never be the same again in the future."

Yang Liqun told her again: "Today is Saturday, and the business is better than usual. As long as you cook well, make the tofu bigger, and give more beancurds to others, everyone is willing to buy from you."

Yang Lirong responded repeatedly, and happily went home to let Yu Hui collect the soybeans.

Lin Lan finished delivering the goods in the morning market and just finished writing the letter to Lao Chen when Yao Xiuyun came and asked her to go to the street of No. [-] Middle School to see the master repairing the house.

Lin Lan sent the letter by the way, and the two went to Yucai Road together.

Xu Dong recruited more than a dozen craftsmen to dismantle all the small kitchens built in the yard, as well as the messy walls that separated the house, and repaired and strengthened the walls of the front and back yards with the removed bricks.

The living room divided into small cubes became spacious and bright, and the separate kitchen and bathroom became spacious and bright after the partition on the upper floor was removed.

After the attic was cleaned out, the log-colored wooden floor was exposed, which had been polished to a shiny finish by several masters working on it.

Yao Xiuyun nodded in satisfaction: "They work very fast. You see, everything is clean and tidy. They can move in after the decoration is completed."

Lin Lan nodded: "Well! It's hard to find something to do now. The production team only pays one or two cents for a day's work. The wages for working outside are high. If you work hard, everyone likes to come out and do it."

She thought of the house on Liman Street, and planned to ask them to renovate the house on the other side after they finished this side.

"Yes! Many of my mother's relatives in the countryside are having a hard time. This time, my cousin is the one who took the lead in the work. He is a good carpenter, and he is also practical." Yao Xiuyun said while abducting Lin Lan, " You look at Xiangyang, and when you see you coming, the corners of your mouth curl up in a smile."

Lin Lan turned her head and saw Li Xiangyang and Xu Dong coming from there. Seeing his smiling face, she felt a little guilty. She had shrunk her head into her shell for several days, trying to escape.

Seeing her guilty look, Li Xiangyang knew that she was running away again.

Xu Dong said to Yao Xiuyun: "I discussed it with Xiang Yang, and the layout of the house will remain the same, only the attic will be redecorated, and the floor will be repainted with two coats of tung oil."

"We want to transform the attic on the top of the building into a study room, where children can read and write and enjoy the distant scenery. The fence of the small platform outside the attic can be changed, and a flower garden can be built on it, and grapes and flowers can be planted. , you can enjoy the cool on it in summer.”

"Okay!" Yao Xiuyun responded with a smile, looked at Lin Lan and said, "Sister Lin, how do you plan to pretend in your family?"

Lin Lan nodded: "I think it's good to install the attic like this, and the original layout of the house is also very good, so I will decorate according to the original layout. For the yard, grow vegetables in the backyard, keep the roses under the walls of the front and back yards, and plant them again. Flowers and fruit trees."

Yao Xiuyun clapped her hands in agreement: "Okay! Let's find some pears, cherries, oranges and peaches to plant."

Lin Lan added with a smile: "There are also persimmon trees, and there are fruits to eat in winter. Next time my brother comes, I will ask him to help us find them in the mountains."

Li Xiangyang and Xu Dong also agreed to plant flowers and fruit trees in the front yard, and said that each family planted two different ones, so they could eat different tastes at that time.

After a few people discussed it, Xu Dong and Li Xiangyang went to tell the master who worked in the building over there what they wanted.

The master responded with a full mouth, and said that some of the wood removed from the house and yard were good, and they could be used to replace the fence on the roof.The remaining boards can be used to build a chicken coop in the backyard and raise a few chickens.

After making arrangements, several people rode back together.

Yao Xiuyun looked at the time and said to Lin Lan: "You and Xiang Yang go back first, and we will go to school to pick up the children."

There are no weekends this year, and there are half-day classes on Saturdays.

Lin Lan nodded: "Okay, let's take a step first."

Li Xiangyang rode to the side of Lin Lan, coughed lightly, cleared his throat and said, "Lin Lan, have you considered it?"

Lin Lan glanced at him with a guilty conscience, and said hesitantly after a long time: "I, I haven't figured it out yet!"

Looking at her guilty look, Li Xiangyang felt a faint sweetness in his heart, and said in a gentle voice, "It's okay, just think about it slowly!"

"Yeah!" Lin Lan nodded in response, then looked up at him, "Xiangyang, you really thought it over clearly, Uncle Li also agreed to marry me?"

Li Xiangyang nodded without hesitation: "I've thought it through a long time ago. My dad hasn't fully agreed yet. Don't worry, I have the confidence to convince him."

Lin Lan didn't make a sound after hearing this, and just rode her bike in silence.

When the two arrived at the entrance of the alleyway of the vehicle factory, Li Xiangyang looked at her: "You go back first, I have to go to the pig farm, and I will send fat pigs to the slaughterhouse in the afternoon and hand them over to the supply and marketing cooperative."

Lin Lan nodded: "Okay, be careful on the road."

Li Xiangyang nodded and watched her ride away before going back.

As soon as Lin Lan got home and put the car away, the old lady came, looked at her with a smile and said, "I heard from Dingbang that the two of you bought the house together, and that the yard is quite big."
