Chapter 41: Repairing the House

Shui Sheng recited the names of places along the way while dipping a brush in the paste and pasting the window paper. Every time you memorize a word, it's like earning another copper plate. It's so pleasant to hum and sing.

The door opened with a hula and the footsteps were unfamiliar, and the water was vigilant and shut up, "Who?" ”

"I, Song Qiang..."

Song Qiang raised his legs and came in, looking around with a look of disgust, "You live here!" ”

"Well, Xinfen, you're back from Xunjiang."

"I'll come back when I'm done, and the eldest lady is still in Lan Kui Mansion. How do you live here? ”

"What's wrong with living here..."Shui Sheng didn't want to pay attention to Song Qiang and continued to paste the window paper.

"This yard is really small enough, and it can be walked in three or two steps."

"I think it's good..."

"This house has been abandoned for a long time, and it needs to be repaired well, my cousin's family repairs the garden, help you repair it?" A boat, for my sake, the price is negotiable. ”

Shui Sheng stopped what he was doing, "My father and I don't have the money to repair the house..."

"This house has to be repaired to get rid of the bad luck of aging, otherwise the dead will not be afraid to live in..."

"How... Say..."

"Ahem... It's really an outsider, on the east side of this river, there are crooked neck trees everywhere, who lives..."

"What's wrong with the crooked neck tree..."

"This area was also full of people many years ago, otherwise how did these houses come about, and then they either moved to Hexi or took their families and left their hometowns."

"Aquatic, what's the paste, I have to run out empty..."The door opened, and in came the dad, who was black and thin.

Shui Sheng hurriedly ran over to block his father and looked up and said, "This is my father..."

"Hello Uncle! I'm an aquatic fellow. Song Qiang hugged his fists and bent down to salute, Shui Sheng was surprised, Song Qiang was so polite to his father.

"Hello, hello," Dad squeezed out from behind the aquatic body, "this guy is really good-looking..."

"I heard that your family is happy to have a new home, so I'll come over on a boat to have a look..."

"The dilapidated courtyard, I haven't cleaned it up, hahaha..."

"Uncle, I'm here today to help you come up with ideas to repair the yard, my cousin's family repairs the garden, and the garden of the Hazuki family is repaired by my cousin's family, let's go out and find a teahouse to talk?"

"Huh? Okay, okay..."

The three of them went out, walked along the river, went down the riverbed, and sat on the Wupeng boat, Song Qiang helped the water father, and let the seat look humble and respectful.

As soon as he sat down at the teahouse, he beckoned Xiao Er and said that he would take care of his account.

"Aquatic and Uncle are foreign, probably do not know the folk customs of the land of the house, the newly built house to live in respect of the land god, placed in the center of the yard after the practice, the land master into the house to bless the house safety, and then people can enter the house. Even if there is no dirt in this house, it is inevitable that some small animals and insects are there, and animals have spirituality, and they must apologize for encroaching on other people's territory. ”

"If you ask my cousin to repair the house, I'll do it for your family in French. If you want to repair a house, you have to ask a reliable person to repair it, otherwise you will run into a black-hearted craftsman and put a small cart in the corner of the roof, which will be a bad thing. ”

"How?" Aquatic Daddy asked.

"Put a small cart on the roof, and when the little ghost comes, he will put the family's wealth and fortune on the car and push it away, and the family will be more and more broken." Song Qiang's face was serious, and his finger pointed at the table, "Many people don't understand why the family is getting worse and worse, it is very likely that when the family repaired the house, the craftsman made a small car out of wooden planks and built it into the wall, and the blessings of the family were smuggled away." ”

"Hey, hey..."The aquatic father was full of chagrin, as if he used to live in a house where the craftsman had stolen the cart.

"The feng shui of this roof is the most exquisite, large families generally put gold pixiu, one corner of the four corners, one corner of the little money, put a pair of diagonals. If you don't have money to put Pixiu, you can put a pair of lions cubs. I don't have any more money..."

Song Qiang paused to look at Shui Sheng and his father, "A pair of carved gourds is also okay..."

Both Shui Sheng and Daddy gasped.

"Put the gourd, let's just put the gourd..."Daddy patted the aquatic life.

"Me and Shui Sheng are guys on the same boat, this is for my sake, my cousin must give it cheap!"

"Oops, Aquatic is blessed to have met such a good friend." Daddy Shui was about to cry with gratitude.

"Tell me how much money you have, I will definitely earn it back in the future." Aquatic tone affirmatively.

Song Qiang stretched out three fingers.

Shui Sheng and Daddy took a look.

"Three...... Well... Hundred! ”

Song Qiang got up to leave, but was pulled by his aquatic father, "Three thousand? ”

"Three thousand three hundred dollars..."Song Qiang sat down, "The whole yard repairs the roof, plus exorcises evil spirits, and invites the land god into the house!" ”

Aquatic Daddy let go of Song Qiang's arm.

"Aquatic life is now in the Zhujia family to Xunjiang River to the special boat, and got a house, the home is repaired, gather blessings, and the aquatic life will get better and better."

"Dad, repair! After all, I also have a job to carry water to the mansion. Shui Sheng slapped the table.

"How much do you make on that errand, I'm at the dock for a month..."

"Daddy! Let's fix it! You still have to go to work, go back first, I'll talk to Song Qiang..."

Shui Sheng's father left, Song Qiang immediately returned to his unruly appearance, and the teacup slid in front of Shui Sheng, "Quick, pour tea for me!" ”

Shui Sheng picked up the teapot and poured the tea, "You really know how to do business..."

"Doing business to make money with a smiling face is not chilling, you don't have to be able to do it in front of me, there is no money to say, my family is a loan shark, I can lend you money..."

"Hmph... Don't look down on me, since I agreed, there is a way! ”

"Hahahaha, hahaha... Shuisheng, you have no mother since you were a child, and your father begged all the way to the house, and the steward of the dock saw that you two were pitiful, so that you lived in an idle warehouse and sold your strength at the dock during the day. You also have an errand to carry water to the mansion. It's not like you can go up once and stay forever. Although Lankui Mansion is the Zhizhou Mansion, it is actually nothing for the business of the Tsubaki family..."

Song Qiang took a sip of tea and moistened his throat, "Xunjiang has a big business abroad, and the capital and the palace are also customers of the Zhujia family." Guys who are serious about business have to go to school, and the master takes them to read business economics, which is not as simple as you think. ”

Shui Sheng was silent for a while, stood up and clenched his fists, "Brother Da Qiang, you look at me, so I will drink tea with a table, I and my father will give you how much money you have first, you tell your cousin to repair the windows and doors first, so that the wind does not leak, and your father can live in it." ”

"Look at you are also filial, okay!"

He came out of the teahouse, Shui Sheng went to the well to fetch water and transport water, and six buckets of water were loaded into the car, but Song Qiang's face was reflected in the bucket.

"Phew! I will be better than him in the future, he is nothing, but I know how much trade I am preparing now. ”
