Chapter 49, Three to five days and a lifetime
Unexpectedly, Master Yao came the next day with a dozen craftsmen, and they were very active.

It's just that Xu Jin looked a little big with so many people, and asked Xiao Zeyi to buy a bowl yesterday, but he didn't buy it.

Also, there is no food at noon!
At this time, the craftsmen are already busy, and they need to sort out the west side first, and then dig the foundation.Xu Jin was busy directing the Xiao family brothers to transfer the chickens and ducks, and was also distracted thinking about what to do with the lunch at noon.

The custom here is to hire people to work and take care of lunch, and the meal should not be vague.

Xu Jin's head grew big, and he stared at Xiao Zeyi several times.

"Sister-in-law, my brother definitely didn't do it on purpose." Xiao Mochen spoke for his brother.

Xu Jin was getting angry, "Tell me what he's doing! Master Yao and the others came from Xinghua Village, so the long journey can't let them go back to have a meal at noon and then come back?"

There is another reason for her anger, Xiao Zeyi's sense of presence is too strong.He was in the yard, and the people who built the house didn't dare to speak loudly!
It is also a skill to live like him that everyone is afraid of!
Xiao Mochen didn't dare to argue for his brother anymore, did his sister-in-law eat gunpowder today?
Xiao Zeyi looked gloomy. Yesterday afternoon, he was so focused on selling the roe deer and going to the mountains again, but he completely forgot what his wife said!Now being scolded, he doesn't even have an excuse to refute.

He could only say: "Seal these chickens and ducks and I'll go to Qinghe Town again."

Xu Jin gave him a sideways glance, "The house is so busy and you want to go out? Do you understand?"

Xiao Zeyi...

His daughter-in-law is indeed a bit tempered today!Could it be that she found out that he secretly held his little hand last night?

Xu Jin didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise he would definitely give him a big roll of his eyes.She is really cranky today!She got up late, and was woken up by Master Yao and his group of craftsmen, but when she woke up, she found her aunt had arrived!
Xu Jin is most annoyed that there is no aunt towel in ancient times!This means that every time I come to my aunt, I have to wash the sheets and dresses for several days.Also, she didn't dare to move during the day, for fear of missing something and embarrassing herself.

Piansheng starts construction on a new house today, and she is here as an aunt.

I'm afraid that most ancient people feel unlucky, right?

Xu Jin glanced at Xiao Zeyi irritably, thinking that if this man finds out and dares to dislike her, hmph, she won't serve her anymore!

Temporarily move the chickens and ducks to the half-collapsed room next to the stove, but this is not a long-term solution, and we still have to find a way to completely solve these unregistered people.

It's too small, otherwise it will kill a pot of stew and have a good meal!
Xu Jin thought anxiously.

If she had known that the house would be built so quickly, she would not have caught these chicks and ducklings back in the first place.

What should we do now?
All problems!

Xu Jin scratched her hair irritably while walking to the toilet, it was really annoying!

Behind them, the Xiao brothers looked at each other.

"Brother, what happened to my sister-in-law today?" Xiao Mochen couldn't hold back, and asked the doubts in his heart.

Xiao Zeyi answered with a guilty conscience: "I don't know, and she didn't say anything." After thinking about it, Xiao Zeyi confessed again, "Anyway, be good today and don't mess with her."

Xiao Mochen glanced at his elder brother suspiciously, "Why do I feel that you are the one who made sister-in-law unhappy?"

Xiao Zeyi became angry from embarrassment, "Kids, what do you know!"

As he said that, he turned around and left without giving his brother a chance to refute.

Xiao Mochen only had time to ask his back: "Brother, where are you going?"

Only air answered him.

Xiao Zeyi went to Yue's family first, and now many of them drove Xu Yu off the field with big sticks, only Xu Wang's family was there.

When she heard the knock on the door, she asked out of habit, "Who is it? Here it comes!"

"Auntie, it's me!"

The deep and thick male voice scared Xu Wangshi back a few steps, she barely stood still and the first thought in her mind was, why is this plague god coming again!
Bah bah bah!Xu Wang soon realized that the man outside was her son-in-law, how could he be called "Plague God" again?
Mrs. Xu stabilized her mind, and then hastily opened the courtyard door.

"Daughter... son-in-law is here!" She wanted to smile, but unfortunately she didn't succeed.

Xiao Zeyi cut to the chase, "Auntie, the masters who built the house are here, Xu Jin is too busy, can you go over and help?"

"Yes!" Mrs. Xu agreed without even thinking about it. She wanted to bite off her own tongue as soon as she said the words. That's Xiao Lao San's family, she wants her life!
"Thank you, aunt! Then I'll go first."

Xiao Zeyi left after finishing speaking, Xu Wang nodded mechanically, "Okay, go slowly!"

It wasn't until Xiao Zeyi's back was completely invisible that Xu Wang muttered: "It seems that the son-in-law is not very scary! He is quite polite."

I don't know if these words are her sincere words, or to comfort myself.

Mrs. Xu turned around and went back to change into clean clothes, then locked the door and went to Xiao's house.

Although I am afraid, this is to help my daughter, and I cannot refuse!

One must cross the river to go to Xiao's house. At this moment, a large group of girls and daughters-in-law are squatting by the river. The aunts and aunts are washing clothes, chattering lively.Someone saw Mrs. Xu approaching from afar, and she hurriedly shouted: "Sister-in-law Xu is going out?"

The chattering sound disappeared instantly.

It seems that the hot topic everyone talked about before was related to Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Xu knew for a long time that because of her daughter's marriage recently, her family and her daughter's house were a pastime in Xiaohu Village after dinner and tea every day, so it was not surprising.

"Yeah." She smiled, responded softly, and prepared to pass over the group of people.

Who would have thought that she wanted to leave, but someone insisted on her staying.

"Hey, Mrs. Xu, where are you going? Why are you wearing new clothes?"

It is said that they are new clothes, but in fact they are only half-new and not old.

People who are not rich these days, people who know how to live, will save the best set of clothes for guests or important occasions, and they usually wear old ones, patched and patched.

Without waiting for Xu Wang's answer, another person said: "Aunt Xu, I heard that Xiao's family is building a house, don't you want to help?"

These days, it is a customary rule that every family builds a house with a bunch of relatives to help.

Xu Wang could hear the sourness in these people's words, and felt like a big lump of cotton was stuck in his heart, but he had to force a smile.

"I'm going to help my son-in-law. It's late now. You are busy, so I'll leave first."

"Hey, don't worry!" Someone shouted, and Xu Wang's footsteps were so fast that he pretended not to hear him.

When she walked away, the man let out a "bah", and said in a strange way: "Look at Mrs. Xu's pride, sooner or later her daughter will die at the hands of Mr. Xiao!"

Everyone tried to persuade, but some really persuaded, while others fanned the flames, so the small river became lively again.

Lin Qingqian also happened to be washing clothes by the river. Ever since Xu Jin got married, she has been "very diligent". This washing clothes is something she must do every day.

She interjected at the right time, "Yesterday, I went to find Sister Xu to do needlework. Her house is really dilapidated. Even the kitchen is half down. I'm afraid I have no choice but to build a house?"

As soon as she said this, someone next to her immediately exclaimed, "Oh my God! Qingqian, how dare you go to Xiao Lao San's house!"

Lin Qingqian smiled softly, "I only went there after watching Third Brother Xiao go out. Sister Xu is good at sewing, and I want to ask her for advice. It's a pity...she is very busy now. She just keeps saying that she is doing well. Very good, let me hurry home."

Everyone's expressions changed, and they all "knew" who Xiao Laosan was. The more Xu Jin said that he was doing well, the worse it would be!
For a while, everyone was saying that Xu Jin was having a miserable life.
