Chapter 37: Ask Uncle Fu for help
Li Cheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Uncle Fu, Aunt Fu, you don't need tea, I came today to ask Uncle Fu for help." After speaking, I felt a little embarrassed, after all, Uncle Fu and Aunt Fu always took care of him in the past, and now I have to ask Uncle Fu for help.
Boxi Beibei really wanted to hold his forehead and sigh, grinding his teeth, he tugged Li Cheng's sleeve with his hand, and his eyes gestured to the hand of the basket that he was writing because of nervousness. "Aunt Fu, this is something I brought, don't be too little, you used to take care of me, but now I want to make trouble for you."
Aunt Fu glanced at the contents of the basket: "You kid, you should keep the things for you to eat!" It's best to make up for Qiqi's body, you see how thin she looks like something. ”
Boxi Beibei watched the basket push back and forth in the hands of the two, and it was almost collapsed, if they continued like this, they would not be able to talk about business at night, and they would have to go to the village chief's house in a while!
stepped forward and snatched the basket from Li Cheng's hand and stuffed it into Aunt Fu's hand: "Aunt Fu, do you dislike us for giving too little?" Today we are here mainly to ask Uncle Fu for help, we want to build a house, but we don't know much about the quality of this aspect, and we want to ask Uncle Fu to check it. ”
Aunt Fu showed surprise, and then shook the basket in her hand with a smile: "Okay, good, Qiqi is really a blessed child, and now he can build a new house, then Aunt Fu will be cheeky to accept your generous gifts, since you are going to talk about [1] [Ben] [Read. Novel ybdu building a house, then I'll go and make tea for you. This time, without waiting for Boxi Beibei to speak, Aunt Fu went to the kitchen with a basket and hurriedly.
After everyone sat down, this will Boxi Beibei no longer catch ducks on the shelves, she will go on herself. "Uncle Fu, the most important thing for us to come today is to ask you for help, we want to build a house, but we don't understand the quality of the house, so we want to ask you to check it, of course, we still pay the salary."
Uncle Fu had already seen that now it was obvious that the cowardly Qiqi was in charge of the house, but he really didn't find out, but now this Qiqi is talking seriously, like an adult, which makes him a little stressed, as if his employer wanted to hire him before. Thinking about it, his face was a little embarrassed and replied to Boxi Beibei: "Qiqi, it's not that Uncle Fu doesn't help, the most important thing is that Uncle Fu is a carpenter, I'm afraid it's ............."
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Boxi Beibei said: "Uncle Fu, I mean to let you be the overseer, you don't have to do it, you just need to watch them do it, don't let them cut corners, do you think this is feasible?" You can rest assured, as for the salary, it is the same as the foreman. ”
After hearing this, Uncle Fu waved his hand again and again: "No, no, since you believe in Uncle Fu so much, Uncle Fu will take this job with a cheeky face, just according to the general miscellaneous wages, just go and see, no need to do heavy work, that miscellaneous wage I feel that I have taken advantage of you!" ”
Boxi Beibei heard that Uncle Fu agreed, and now is not the time to talk about wages, so he smiled and said: "Uncle Fu, I still want to ask you for help, since you are a carpenter, then you must know people in this industry, I want to build a carved building, so there are a lot of carpenters in this area, so you have to help me find it." ”
Uncle Fu said a little hesitantly: "Qiqi, the carved buildings are all lived in by those rich families, and it costs a lot of money to build a carved building!" ”
Boxi Beibei smiled mischievously: "Uncle Fu, don't worry, I have money, I won't pay you wages, since you want to build a house, then you have to build it better, besides, I don't have to build much, there are only me and my brother in the family." ”
"It's not that I'm afraid that you won't pay me!" As he spoke, he waved his hand anxiously.
Bo Xi Beibei's face turned a little red when he looked at it, it was Uncle Fu. "Uncle Fu, it's okay! Seeing that you are in such a hurry, I am just joking, since you have agreed, then the craftsman's matter will trouble you. ”
After speaking, he took out a silver ticket of fifty taels from his arms. "Uncle Fu, you take this silver ticket first, the money that should be advanced in advance depends on the advance, and the courtyard wall and everything must be made of green bricks! I am afraid of thieves at night. After speaking, he glanced in the direction next door.
Uncle Fu listened to Boxi Beibei's last deliberately aggravated words and her last look, looked at the fifty taels of silver tickets handed over, and waved his hand and said, "That can be used so much!" The bricks and timber are all paid for when they are delivered here. ”
Boxi Beibei saw that Uncle Fu didn't answer, so he stuffed the silver ticket into his hand. "Okay, Uncle Fu, I'll leave the house to you, I just have to pay for it, so the money still has to go through your hands, we don't understand any of this."
After speaking, he got up and left: "Uncle Fu, we still have to go to the village chief to buy land, so let's go first." ”
Li Tie and Li Zhu were not familiar with Uncle Fu, so Boxi Beibei left, of course they had to follow, only Li Cheng was still implicit with Uncle Fu.
When Boxi Beibei and the three of them walked to the door, they all heard behind them: "Li Cheng, you guys are drinking a bowl of tea and leaving!" Your aunt is still ................"
The three of them waited outside for a quarter of an hour, and Uncle Fu personally sent Li Cheng out, and while opening the courtyard door a little, he also said to Bo Xi Beibei, who was waiting for the door: "Qiqi, don't worry, Uncle Fu promises to contact all the craftsmen within three days, and guarantees that the construction will start in three days." ”
After Boxi Beibei thanked him, he took the three of them to the village chief's house at the entrance of the village, and when he arrived at the village chief's house, the courtyard door was open, Li Tian sat on the stone seat in the courtyard while drinking tea and reading a book, and there was a young woman embroidering next to him, hehe, a very quiet picture, but unfortunately it was broken by Boxi Beibei's bad deeds.
"Gongzi Li, is the village chief at home?"
Li Tian and the woman both raised their heads when they heard the voice, and when they saw that it was Boxi Beibei, the woman hurriedly put down the embroidery on her hand, got up to greet her, and showed a gentle smile on her face: "The original Qiqi!" Come in and sit, Daddy is resting at home! Because Boxi Beibei said good things to the village chief in front of the doctor yesterday, she has a good impression of Boxi Qiqi, and she thinks that she has wronged Boxi Beibei, so she feels more guilty, so she is more enthusiastic about her.
Boxi Beibei also smiled back. "That bothers the girl."
The woman covered her mouth and smiled, which really confirmed an old saying, and she smiled without showing her teeth: "Don't call girls and girls, you and I are about the same age, just call me Li He." ”
Bo Xi Beibei is not pretentious. "Li He, I want to find the village chief with something that needs to trouble him, do you think the village chief is convenient now?"
Li Tian, who had never had a chance to answer, replied: "It's convenient, you go into the hall, I'll call my father out, and Xiaohe will go make tea." ”
Under the leadership of Li He, the four of them waited in the hall for the village chief who was 'resting'.
