"Manman, you know it's very hard for your uncle to buy a house for his two cousins. We don't need any help. Your uncle just wants to make money with his own hands."

After saying this, he secretly glanced at Qiao Manman's expression and saw that there was no change on her face.

He continued: "But your uncle is very stressed. I often see your uncle sighing into his mobile phone. You also know the housing prices in that city."

"Well, you are going to build a new house now. Your uncle couldn't get any work a year ago. I don't think I can help him. Manman, after all, your uncle is also an elder and we are all one family. Can you see if you can Can you help your uncle?"

Turning to look at Qiao Manman, she was peeling a small plantain and eating it. It tasted pretty good.

What the aunt said was that it was not easy for her, and she wanted her to leave the house to her uncle.

She waited for Qiao Manman to take the initiative and leave the job to her uncle.

However, Qiao Manman didn't take the usual path. After hearing this, she acted as if she didn't understand. She still ate bananas and looked at her aunt who wanted her to continue talking.

Seeing that she didn't talk to her, Chen Yongmei continued: "Can you see if your uncle can use that house in your house?" She finally said this and turned to look at the lady who was concentrating on feeding the silkworm babies over there. Joe's father, Joe's mother.

"I asked your mother before, and she said it was you who made the decision. My aunt is here to beg you today."

When he heard the word "beg", Qiao Manman's originally indifferent expression became serious.

"Begging me? Auntie, what you said is too serious." Qiao Manman met her aunt's eyes. Such a deterrent force made her even the most shameless aunt feel a little timid at this time.

The eldest aunt thought for a while and then said: "Manman, you don't know, we also hired an engineering team from outside, but they didn't finish it. Although it looked good, after a month or two, the house didn't look good. This leak is caused by mold.”

"If your uncle makes it for you, he will definitely do it for you with care. Your uncle and you are a family, and one family does not lie to the other."

"Really? Then wasn't the house we have now built by my uncle? You said that the steps were dangerous last time you went upstairs. Why are you saying that you are not lying to the whole family now?"

She felt a little guilty when she thought about the stairs in her eldest sister's house. It was true that her husband was not good at school at that time, so he built a house for her eldest sister's house just after he came back from working as a laborer at the construction site.

"Oh, that was so many years ago. Isn't the situation at that time different from now? It was popular at that time, and your uncle has learned a lot at the construction site over the years. Their construction team is very professional. of."

Then he turned to look at Qiao's mother, "Sister, do you think so? Now Tianqin's technology is much better than when he was building houses. The house in his hometown was also built by Tianqin bit by bit. Isn't there nothing wrong?"

Before they moved out of the mountains, my uncle and the others rebuilt a house on the original homestead. The house was not considered exquisite in the mountains.

Qiao's mother also didn't expect that her sister-in-law would still tell lies with her eyes open.

"I haven't been to that house a few times. I don't understand." After Qiao's mother finished speaking, she continued to work on her own affairs. Having a daughter was enough to deal with the affairs of her younger siblings.

"Auntie, our house will definitely not be given to my uncle. If it is too hard for the two cousins ​​to buy a house, I suggest not buying a house. Renting is also very good. There are many people in the city now It is popular to rent a house to get married, and my cousin can also jump on the trend."

"What's more, we have already signed a contract with the construction team, and the designer has prepared a design plan. If you insist on my uncle taking over the work on our house, I will pay the liquidated damages for you.

Not much, just like 60,000 yuan. "Seeing the calm look on Qiao Manman's face when he said 60,000 yuan, Chen Yongmei was extremely angry.

If they took over this house, they would only make tens of thousands of yuan. They would have to pay tens of thousands of yuan before they even made a profit. She would not engage in such a loss-making business.

"Haha, you have signed a contract. There is really nothing we can do about it." Chen Yongmei thought to herself that it was not good, because this little girl Qiao Manman really took advantage of her.

At this time, Qiao Zhiyuan came in from outside the door, "Mom, we can't talk to this girl you introduced."

Suddenly, when the eldest aunt heard this, her eyes lit up. She thought of something, said hello to Mother Qiao, and left.

Qiao Manman felt a little strange when her aunt left so inexplicably.

"What's wrong with auntie? She left in such a hurry."

Qiao's mother was a little confused when she heard what her daughter said, "Who knew she would always cause trouble. Your aunt is as annoying as that unkillable cockroach."

The Qiao family all agreed with what Mother Qiao said.

Qiao Manman recalled the meaningful look her aunt looked at Qiao Zhiyuan when she left.

Suddenly she understood something, it should be what the elder brother said when he came in.

"Brother, be careful lately. Auntie is probably going to introduce you to someone." Qiao Manman patted Qiao Zhiyuan on the shoulder and walked out of the silkworm room.

Dealing with my aunt was such a waste of time. The weather was nice and Qiao Manman went to Xiaohua Mountain again. First, he went to the vegetable field to pick some green vegetables and cabbage. He was going to stir-fry one cabbage tonight.

After looking, I couldn't find the vegetable basket. Grandpa Qiao must have taken the vegetable basket home. I tied the cabbage heart with a piece of grass next to the vegetable garden and put it on the roadside, waiting to be picked up when I went down the mountain.

Walking up the road from Xiaohuashan, you will reach the place where Grandpa Qiao raises chickens. I'm a little greedy again. Let's get some chickens to eat today.

He walked to the chicken shed and opened the locked door. After walking in, more than a dozen chickens were frightened. Qiao Manman spotted a chicken that was a little slow and seemed to weigh more than three pounds.

There should be a lot of meat. After the Chinese New Year, the orchard will be fenced off to allow these chickens to roam under the fruit trees. It will be a proper fruit chicken.

Thinking about it, Qiao Manman started drooling again.

With quick eyes and hands, he caught the chicken by its wings. When it was caught, the chicken was still fluttering, trying to escape from the woman's clutches, but these struggles were in vain.

Qiao Manman originally wanted to go to the mountains to see some fruits to eat, but there was no rope to tie the chicken, so she might as well go home and make fire and hot water.

I walked down the mountain road, picked up the cabbage and returned home.

Grandpa Qiao is drying some green vegetables and preparing to make some dried vegetables. In winter, we are used to eating braised pork here, so it will be very delicious to make some braised pork with pickles.

"Manman, do you want to eat chicken again?"

"Yeah, I'm a little tired today. Let's eat some chicken to replenish our energy." Grandpa Qiao glanced at his greedy granddaughter. Look at that struggling chicken again.

"Eat, eat, I want to take a supplement too." After saying that, he proudly went to dry his vegetables.
