Chapter 21
"The world is so big, I still want to go out and see it! Since there are no people who care about me here, why should I stay here? Sister-in-law, have you ever been to other countries? Have you heard of it? Tell me goodbye What about your country?"

Tong Xiaowu looked longingly at the woman next to her, "If we have a chance, let's go to other countries and experience the customs and customs there, and do you know..."

"Cough cough..."

Before Tong Xiaowu finished speaking, Fulin's sister-in-law touched her to stop her from continuing.

"What's the matter, sister-in-law? You don't have to worry, we can dress up as men, and I can earn money, so I won't starve to death anywhere."

Aunt Fulin's forehead was covered with cold sweat. She was clearly the one who warned her to watch over her man to live a good life. Why is it now that she seduces her to run away from home and disguise herself as a man to see around the world?If the two men knew about this, wouldn't they be pissed off?

Aunt Fulin's eyes were crooked, then she shook her head, signaling Tong Xiaowu to shut up.

Tong Xiaowu's back felt cold for a while, and she finally understood why Mrs. Fulin was winking at her. She turned her head slowly, and sure enough there was Feng Yuchen with a frosty face standing behind her.

"Give me the banknote, I'll give it to Brother Fulin!" His expression was not very good, his eyes were cold and desolate.

Tong Xiaowu obediently gave him the silver ticket, shut up and stopped talking.

After eating, Feng Yuchen handed the banknotes for buying materials to Brother Fulin, and in order to express his gratitude, he gave an extra three taels of silver as a gift to Brother Fulin and Brother Panglong and Panghu for helping to buy materials .

Originally, the three of them refused to accept them, but Feng Yuchen was very firm and his intention was very clear. If they refused, he would have to find someone else. After all, the house would take more than half a month to build, and it would not be good to delay them for such a long time.

In the end, the three couldn't hold back against Feng Yuchen, so they had to accept

After leaving the cottage, Fulin, Panglong and Panghu hired a carriage to go to the town to buy building materials, and Zhao Lichang and Zhao Hongzhu also left Feng Yuchen's house.

After eating, Fulin's sister-in-law and Tong Xiaowu helped clean up and took the children back to take a nap.

In the hut, only Feng Yuchen and Tong Xiaowu were left, and the air pressure dropped a lot.

Feng Yuchen sat by the bed and looked at the quantity of raw materials recorded in the notebook in his hand, with a cold face and indifferent eyes.

Tong Xiaowu walked in front of him slowly, and handed the sweet cucumber seed soup in front of him: "You haven't taken your medicine yet!"

He didn't speak!
She put the medicine bowl on the window sill, turned around and came to the table, "I will go to the fortune teller with Mrs. Fulin in the afternoon, and find an auspicious day to start work."

He still didn't speak, his face was still cold.

Tong Xiaowu pouted, not knowing what to say for a while?

She slowly turned around and came to him, guessing that he probably heard what she said before, so she asked, "Are you angry? Because of what I said to my sister-in-law?"

Feng Yuchen put down the notebook in his hand, looked up at her, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people: "You seem to expect me to like someone else?"

"No, I just respect you, you think you are only 19 years old this year, a 19-year-old boy will definitely have a girl he likes, this is also normal.

Although I like you too, I can't beat you up just because I like you, can I?So, as long as you tell me, everything is easy to discuss..."

Feng Yuchen frowned: "Discussion? Okay, I want to hear how to negotiate?"

Tong Xiaowu lowered her head, bit her lips, and thought: Naturally, you are all fulfilled. She knew that reconciliation in ancient times was very shameful. Many men would not agree to a woman's reconciliation, but she doesn't want to share with other women. Waiting for a husband.

If he likes someone else, she will naturally give way. Even if he doesn't get along, she can sneak away. She doesn't want to embarrass herself in that situation.

But she naturally didn't dare to say these words, "That's...that...hehe..."

When the man saw her like this, the expression on his face became even colder. He stepped forward, bent his fingers, and flicked her forehead, "You, you, don't let your imagination run wild in the future..."

Immediately, Tong Xiaowu felt a burning pain in her forehead, she squatted down covering her forehead, and when she looked up at him again, he had already left the yard.

This afternoon, Tong Xiaowu and Mrs. Fulin found a fortune teller in a neighboring village, and they found a lucky day recently to start building a house.

When they came back, Brother Fulin and Brother Panglong and Panghu had brought back two carts of blue bricks, and now they hired other people to bring several carts of stones over.

Tong Xiaowu hurriedly prepared to go to the town, because these people had to eat at home at night, so she had to prepare meals.

It is said that building a house is the most tiring, so Tong Xiaowu felt "Yuchen, I'm going to the town, I'm going to buy meat and vegetables!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Yuchen stopped her, "Don't run away, I have already asked someone to buy it back."

As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed her fingers, and brought her to the west room. Sure enough, he bought all the meat, vegetables, dishes, and everything needed in the kitchen, and there was also a new pot:
"I have already given Fulin's sister-in-law half a tael to help her cook for half a month, so you don't have to work too hard."

"Why do you still hire someone for this kind of thing?" Tong Xiaowu didn't expect him to do this: "It's just cooking, I can handle it."

"I don't want you to work too hard, and I'm afraid you have to go to the town to sell things." Feng Yuchen looked at her deeply.

At that moment, Tong Xiaowu felt her heart melted, and the unhappiness between the two of them before was forgotten on the back of her forehead.

In the days that followed, all kinds of materials were prepared, and on the day of the groundbreaking, there was a burst of firecrackers, and the construction officially started.

According to Feng Yuchen's idea, building the courtyard wall first and then building the house can also prevent someone from doing damage or throwing things away.

Early in the morning, Tong Xiaowu went to the town to sell things in Liu Er's carriage. Along with her were several girls who hadn't left the court in the town, including Chen Meili.

Several people sat in the car without talking, and Chen Meili was also very quiet. She looked at Tong Xiaowu in a strange way, as if she was about to eat her.

"Say what you have to say, and your eyes will fall out if you stare again." They could hold back, but Tong Xiaowu couldn't, she turned her head and looked directly at Chen Meili.

Chen Meili raised her neck and asked sourly, "Is your family really going to build a house?"

"En!" Tong Xiaowu nodded, remembering that Mrs. Fulin said that if Feng Yuchen hadn't had a broken leg and no house or land, there would be many girls willing to be with him.

Looking at these girls, they all grew up in the same village as Feng Yuchen. I'm afraid they are among the ranks of "there are too many girls" that Mrs. Fulin said?
