Chapter Twenty-Three: Joy

Ji Youyi went to the kitchen and began to tidy things up, but the matter of the door lock being picked has been lingering in her mind.

"By the way, Brother Zhao, did you see anything unusual when you came over today?"

Zhao Zhuang was going to go back to the house to supervise the work, but when he heard Ji Youyi's question, he turned around, "What's abnormal?" ”

"Did you see anyone else?" Ji Youyi pretended to ask casually.

"No? Is something wrong? ”

"No, I just asked casually, it's okay, you can get busy."

Ji Youyi snorted, put down the door lock for the time being, lowered her head and started to do the work at hand.

Aunt Wugen came over with some things in her hand, thinking that Ji Youyi was not at home and planned to hang it on the door, but she didn't expect to see someone working on the roof.

"Youyi, is Youyi at home?"

Ji Youyi poked her head out of the kitchen, "It's my aunt, why did you have time to come over at this time?" ”

Aunt Wugen stepped forward, looked at the busy workers with a puzzled expression, and asked, "Are you?" Is this renovating the roof? ”

"Yes, there was a rain leak yesterday, and I thought the rainy season was coming, so I found someone to fix it."

Aunt Wugen was puzzled, it had rained in the past two days, and she hadn't met the gossip of her neighbors, so she didn't know what happened yesterday.

"Who are you looking for? I heard that Zhao De broke his leg and couldn't start work. ”

Ji Youyi led Aunt Wugen to the kitchen and said: "It's Brother Zhao Qiang, I met him when I went into the city yesterday, and then he knew about the roof leakage in my house, so I'll find someone to help me fix it today, it's a shame to have him, otherwise I don't know what to do." ”

"Oh, that's right." Aunt Wugen looked into the room and happened to see Zhao Zhuang busy, which was a little uncomfortable.

Ji Youyi didn't know how she felt, and asked, "Why is my aunt free to come over today?" ”

"Hey, look at me, forgot about business." Aunt Wugen came back to her senses and put the meat in her hand on the stove, "There is a rabbit here, which was caught by your uncle in the mountains a few days ago, and I was thinking about opening meat for you and An An, so I brought it over." ”

"What's so embarrassing about that." Ji Youyi shirked, "Uncle's legs and feet are not very good, how can you give me the meat that I finally hit, no, I can't ask for it." ”

"Eh, look at you, this meat is what I and your uncle have in mind, you are like this, I am going to be angry."

"Then, then I'll thank Auntie." Ji Youyi thought about it, accepted the rabbit, and took out a small jar of wine under the stove: "Auntie, this is some wine that I went to the city yesterday, you can take it back to give your uncle a taste, it can be regarded as a little bit of my heart." ”

The exchange of gifts is not a debt.

Ji Youyi's idea is so simple, and Aunt Wugen is also happy.

"Okay, then I'll go back first, I still have some things to do with Aunt Wang." She smiled and carried the wine, glanced at Zhao Zhuang in the room, and continued: "By the way, do you know the recent happy event of Da Zhuang? ”

"Happy event? Brother Zhao didn't tell me? Ji Youyi was puzzled.

Aunt Wugen was happy and gossiped with a smile, "I'll tell you, don't tell others." Aunt Wang recently took a fancy to a girl in the next village and planned to propose marriage to Da Zhuang. ”

"That's a good thing."

"It's not, I've been there for the past two days just to talk about this matter, this matter hasn't been decided yet, and I can't tell you which girl it is, in case it doesn't work out by then, it won't be a delay in the reputation of other girls."

"Yes, my aunt is thoughtful."

Ji Youyi actually doesn't have much thought about other people's gossip, and she has more money in her head.

Aunt Wugen saw that she didn't seem to take Zhao Zhuang's matter to heart, and she was a lot more relieved at the moment, "Eh, then I won't bother you, I'll go first." ”

"Okay, sister-in-law, go slowly."

Ji Youyi didn't pay attention to Aunt Wugen's words, and after sending people away, she continued to be busy.

She used all the seasonings she had collected some time ago, and also found some wild peppers in the mountains, and with this rabbit meat, a plate of spicy rabbit meat, it was simply a wine dish.

She made another braised pork ribs, plus the vegetables brought by Zhao Zhuang yesterday, and she always got together six or seven dishes, thinking that it should be enough.

Zhao Zhuang took the workers to check it, and after making sure that there was no problem, he packed up his tools and prepared to leave.

"Youyi, the masters have done it, you go and take a look." Zhao Zhuang came out to say hello.

Ji Youyi saw that the time was about the same, and sighed: "Ah, it's done so quickly." ”

When she walked into the house, it was indeed much better than before, but it was not raining now, and she didn't know the exact effect.

"Brother Zhao, thank you, by the way, do you need to add some of this salary material?"

"No, no, no, there's ten more wen." Zhao Zhuang took out the money and handed it to her.

Ji Youyi waved her hand and confiscated it.

"Brother Zhao, let's give this money to the two masters to drink tea, I won't accept it."

"It's, it's not good."

"There's nothing bad about it, just hard-earned money."

Seeing this, Zhao Zhuang didn't say much, went out and divided the money to the two workers, and the two of them were naturally happy, and after thanking them a lot, they took their things home.

Ji Youyi didn't leave anyone behind, although she said that she was going to invite them to dinner, but it was a polite word after all, and they knew it in their hearts.

Not long after the workers were gone, Dr. Liu led the two children and brought Aunt Wang over.

"Youyi, I went to call Aunt Wang by the way, so you don't have to run again."

Dr. Liu is very good at coming to things and understands what he says.

Aunt Wang happily entered the house, "Youyi, has the roof been repaired?" ”

Ji Youyi smiled at Dr. Liu, knowing in her heart. helped Aunt Wang into the house: "Okay, thanks to Brother Zhao." ”

Aunt Wang looked up, "Mmmm, it's good, it's good, it's good." Da Zhuang did a good job and lived up to your trust. ”

"What did the aunt say? You and the master sit down first, and I'll bring the food. Ji Youyi settled down and went out to serve food.

An An didn't see her mother all afternoon, and went out with her.

When Brother Yuan saw this, he also followed.

Ji Youyi turned around and saw the two of them enter the kitchen with their front and back feet, "Why did you come along?" ”

"Serve the dishes." An An raised her hand and made the appearance of serving food.

Brother Yuan also did the same, nodding and standing aside.

Ji Youyi smiled: "Okay, okay, then you have to serve it." ”

She gave them two plates that were not too hot, and she picked up two more for herself, and the three of them went into the house together.

Zhao Zhuang took the food in her hand and put it down, and then followed her out of the door.

"Here, let me serve it."

In fact, there are not many dishes, Ji Youyi handed the dishes and chopsticks to Zhao Zhuang, "I'll serve the dishes, Brother Zhao will take the dishes and chopsticks, and the children will settle down." ”

Seeing that the two children were coming over again, she hurriedly picked up the dishes and led the people out of the kitchen.

A table of dishes, both meat and vegetarian.

Doctor Liu didn't think it was unusual, after all, he usually ate too much of Ji Youyi's dishes, but it was Zhao Zhuang, Aunt Wang and Brother Yuan, because they hadn't seen it, and their eyes were straight.

Aunt Wang: "Youyi, did you do all this?" ”
