Farm girl is busy making money

Chapter 1010 The Lion's Big Opening

Chapter [-] The Lion's Big Opening

She said so much, no one wanted to listen, especially Zhao Shuangxi felt uncomfortable and wanted to shake off Hu's hand.

"Qin Hua fell in love with a girl from the county seat, and the two fell in love with each other, but the girl's family asked for too many gifts."

Hu lowered her head, and she didn't know where to squeeze out some tears. She raised her head and wiped it with her hands.

"Originally, the wedding date was set in the second half of the year, but the girl's father said that the bride price proposed should not be less than a dime, otherwise, they would make fun of it and prevent them from getting married."

Hu's hand just happened to be thrown off by Zhao Shuangxi, so she took advantage of the situation and covered her face, sobbing and crying.

"You know, where will your elder brother and I earn as much money as you?" Mrs. Hu deliberately sighed, and occasionally glanced secretly at Zhao Shuangxi.

"Although we also persuaded Qin Hua that it's better to forget it, but he just likes it. That girl has only one daughter in her family, and her family background is not bad."

"It's just that the marriage is all set now. If we can't get the gift money, what will we do? If the marriage is cancelled, where will we put Qin Hua's face in the future?"

As Hu said, seeing Zhao Shuangxi frowned, looking unmoved, she quickly lowered her head and wiped away her tears.

"Siblings, for the sake of our family, please help us." Mrs. Hu began to cry poorly again, and before Zhao Shuangxi agreed, she stretched out her finger, asking for 300 taels if she wanted the lion to open her mouth.

Originally, Zhao Shuangxi was still tangled in her mind, but anyway, they were indeed related. Since He Qinhua wanted to get married, as an aunt, she could give some, just treat it as gift money.

But she never expected that the Hu family could ask for so much in one mouth, which really broke her imagination.

Zhao Shuangxi didn't intend to give 300 taels of money. She knew in her heart that Hu was here to plot against her, and she was not a fool to speak so loudly, so she couldn't bear it at all.

"Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Even if we are related, it is no longer a family tree!"

He Lanshan was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect Zhao Shuangxi to speak so forcefully this time, and directly brought up the matter.

Hu probably didn't expect that, the smile on his face suddenly became awkward.

"I originally thought that Qin Hua would call me aunt anyway, so he could give me a little money, but sister-in-law, you can't treat me like a fool and kill a pig to death, right?"

Hu was also stunned, she never expected that Zhao Shuangxi would say such a thing.

The little fat lady listened to it, and couldn't help asking, "Master, it's true that your son is going to get married in the second half of the year, but I see that your family has been very happy before, and you even came out to show off to others, why? I've never seen you worry about this, have I?"

"Could it be that you just saw Double Happiness come back and wanted to cheat people out of their money?" The little fat lady interrogated from her soul.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Mrs. Hu was actually a little anxious.

When Zhao Shuangxi heard what the little fat lady said, she felt even more unhappy.

She pulled He Lanshan and was about to leave, but Mrs. Hu wanted to stop her, but Zhao Shuangxi pushed her away without hesitation.

Although she got rid of Hu Shi this time, the way He Lanshan looked back at her, it definitely didn't look like she was planning to let them go easily.

He Lanshan guessed in her heart that the Hu family would definitely find other ways to disturb them in the future, and her mind inevitably began to stir.

When we arrived at the village head's house, the village head's wife was preparing lunch. The village head's wife, who used to be a bit stingy, saw Zhao Shuangxi and He Lanshan today and warmly asked them to have lunch at their home today.

Zhao Shuangxi refused embarrassingly, but the village chief insisted on inviting them, so the two of them agreed to stay for dinner.

The village chief's wife was busy in the kitchen, and He Lanshan and Zhao Shuangxi had already chatted with the village chief about road construction.

"Uncle Village Chief, I have already inquired about road construction before I came here." As the main person who talked with the village chief about road construction, He Lanshan began to talk about her thoughts and suggestions.

Before coming here, He Lanshan inquired about the road construction for the village, such as what kind of bricks and stones to use, price, construction period, etc.

"Village chief, my idea is that since donating roads this time, we can't just do some face-saving projects, such as just building a main road. In fact, some fundamental problems of the dirt roads in the village cannot be completely solved."

He Lanshan thinks that the main road is spacious and flat, and the soil is hard. Even the general drizzle weather will not have any effect at all. Only the long-term continuous heavy rain will affect the road condition.

However, the condition of some other branch roads and small roads is much worse. Not only is the soil soft, but it is also very difficult to walk with uneven potholes.

He Lanshan believes that since she has made up her mind to contribute to the village's road repairs this time, it is necessary to thoroughly repair all the main roads and small roads.

The village chief was happy and excited after hearing her words.

The upward arc of his mouth almost flew up, "It would be great if this could really happen."

After reaching a consensus on the scope of road construction, He Lanshan and the village chief discussed in detail about various expenses, money expenditures and specific implementation issues. Zhao Shuangxi also joined the discussion together, expressing some of his own opinions from time to time.

The three of them waited until the village head's wife had finished cooking lunch and the food was served, but there were still many issues that had not been discussed in detail.

So the village head greeted them very enthusiastically to eat first, planning to continue the discussion after eating.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the village chief finally decided on the final plan for road construction in the village. He Lanshan and Zhao Shuangxi were also very satisfied, so they left and went back.

In the evening, He Lanshan and Zhao Shuangxi didn't live in the village either, and they went back to their house in the county seat in a carriage. Zhao Shuangxi also planned to invite a doctor the next day to take a closer look at how old Zhao was doing.

Now this trip back to the village, He Lanshan and the others have suddenly become the hottest characters. Even returning to the county town from the village, everyone received a very warm farewell.

Zhao Shuangxi was talking to the villagers, saying that he would come back tomorrow, He Lanshan was a little helpless.

Because they were stumbled by enthusiastic villagers, they couldn't leave immediately in a carriage. Unexpectedly, the news that they were going back to the county town was passed to Hu's ears.

Hu quickly came over to get a ride, saying that she happened to be going back to the county, anyway, she was a family and wanted to go back in their car.

Zhao Shuangxi was obviously unwilling, but Hu completely ignored it, and even got into the carriage directly.

In fact, it was a trivial matter to rub the carriage. In front of many villagers, Zhao Shuangxi was unwilling to drive her off the carriage, so she had to go.
