The brick walls of the old house are quite strong, but no one has lived in them for more than ten years, and some wooden pillars and doors have been eaten by insects, so Lin Yue and they only dealt with it briefly.

Lin Zhiyu looked at the house carefully, thinking of his mother, but when his mother died, he was too young and his memory was very vague.

Yang Liu turned her head to see Lin Zhiyu standing in front of the window in a daze, her back was a little gloomy, she walked over and hugged him from behind, her face on his back.

Lin Zhiyu held Yang Liu's hands, and the warmth of the woman warmed up his lonely heart.

Looking at the vegetable stalks that had been dried by the sun, Lin Zhiyu smiled and said: "When I first came to your village, you walked in front of me when you came back from the town to learn tailors. Then you look back at me and smile at me. I thought, how can there be such a good-looking girl and still smile so good? ”

Yang Liu thought about it carefully, but didn't think about it at all: "I smiled at you?" No way, I rarely smile at strangers. ”

"Maybe I'm different."

Lin Zhiyu stretched out his arm and pulled Yang Liu in front of him and took him into his arms: "I was going to take the college entrance examination that year, and I thought that if I was admitted to the university, I would go to your house to propose my relatives." As a result, I didn't get in, and I didn't know how sad I was at the time. But you came to me and asked me if I wanted to live with you. You're such a daring girl. ”

He had been an unfortunate man until that day when she came to him, and since then, he has not only had a lover, but also a family.

"Why did you come to propose marriage after being admitted?" Yang Liu hasn't heard Lin Zhiyu say this, but he doesn't believe it in his heart, if he is admitted, he will hurry away and fly away, and he will come to marry himself, a country girl?

"You are good-looking, you can tailor skills, your family also spoils you, there are many people who want to chase you, how dare I pursue you in such conditions, if you are admitted to university, then I have confidence."

There was a knock on the open courtyard door, and the two quickly separated and walked out of the house.

The people who came were two middle-aged men in their forties, with honest faces, and asked with a smile: "May I ask if your family wants to renovate the house?" ”

Lin Zhiyu nodded and invited the two of them in.

Someone introduced himself, the elder brother Nong Gaoquan and the younger brother Nong Gaohe both learned the carpenter's craft from their father, but the younger brother later learned to be a mason and built houses for others.

Looking at the situation in the house, both of them praised: "This old house is really good, the roof is high, and these beams are carved with flowers and birds, so it used to be a big family." ”

Yang Liu didn't understand, he just felt that such a small house could be considered a big family, Nong Gaoquan pointed to the wall in the backyard: "The house over there should be the backyard at the earliest, and it should be sold to someone else's house after being partitioned here." ”

Sure enough, although this wall is also a little old, it is not the same as the bricks on the walls on both sides.

The kitchen and toilet were demolished, and the backyard was built into a two-story small building, with the kitchen, toilet, and dining room downstairs, and a large room upstairs to make willow's studio. The toilets are equipped with the latest showers and ceramic squatting toilets, the sewers are dug and the sewers are pre-built, and the wires and lights are all replaced.

The house on the right side of the hall has been converted into two children's rooms, with custom-made wardrobes, beds, desks, bookcases, wooden floors on the floor, and enlarged windows to increase the light and air circulation in the room.

The floor of the hall is covered with tiles, and the wood on the beams is all renovated, insecticide, and painted.

The master bedroom is divided into a bedroom and a study, and all the furniture is also made according to Yang Liu's requirements. Wooden floors are laid on the floor.

"We have to buy a lot of materials from the city or even the provincial capital, and the construction period may be a little longer." Looking at the paper on which the sketch was drawn, Nong Gaohe was both happy and a little embarrassed.

Most of them built houses very simply, and they had never encountered such detailed and high requirements.

"It doesn't matter if it's a little longer, but the quality must be guaranteed." Yang Liu and Lin Zhiyu are not ink people, they paid a deposit on the spot and entrusted carte blanche to the peasant brothers.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon when he left, Zhong Zhipeng was still there guarding, Lin Zhiyu and Yang Liu greeted each other, and Zhong Zhipeng took five lists for her. The two of them went back and hastily made some egg drop batter to fill their stomachs.

After resting for a while, the two of them did their own things, one cut clothes, and the other sat at the desk to prepare for class and correct homework.

Lin Zhiyu's back was wet, but he didn't notice the heat at all, until Yang Liu put a cup of tea next to him, and picked up a fan to fan him, then he came back to his senses, picked up the tea and took a sip, "You don't have to worry about me, I see that you have taken a lot of orders, I'm afraid you're going to be busy, right?" ”

"Cut it today, and let her sew it when Liu Wenying comes tomorrow."

"Aren't you sewing faster?" Lin Zhiyu knew that Yang Liu was very fast.

"Forget it, let's do it for her, I'm happy to be idle, and I can let her earn some money."

"Well, it's better for you to take it easy, the money is endless." Lin Zhiyu is an open-minded person, who attaches more importance to family affection and does not attach much importance to money.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Yang Liu got up and went to open the door, but it was an unexpected person: the young man named Xiao Gu next to Director Liu.

"Hello, Sister Yang, I can be regarded as finding you." Xiao Gu was very happy to see Yang Liu, he was actually older than Yang Liu, but he called Sister out to show respect.

Seeing that he was sweating, Yang Liu hurriedly invited him to come in and sit down.

Lin Zhiyu also got up to help pour tea to greet the guests.

Xiao Gu glanced at the crowded and well-organized room, where a batch of cut clothes were neatly stacked on the table.

After taking a sip of tea, Xiao Gu explained his intention: "Director Liu wants to invite Sister Yang to dinner, I don't know if you have time?" ”

It turned out that Xiao Gu had been here yesterday but had a pounce, and he came twice today, and this time he found someone.

"When?" Yang Liu asked.

"Tonight at six o'clock, the new star will have dinner."

Seeing that the time was only four o'clock, Yang Liu said that she would arrive on time, Xiao Gu smiled: "I'll go back and talk to the factory director first, and I'll pick you up later." ”

Yang Liu refused: "Don't take it, I'll go over by myself, it's not very far from here." ”

Xiao Gu also knew, so he nodded in response, and then took his leave.

"What's the matter with Director Liu?" Lin Zhiyu heard Yang Liu say that this person was an upright person.

"I don't know!" Yang Liu didn't know too much, and could only vaguely guess: "Do you want to go with me?" ”

Lin Zhiyu said: "I won't go, I don't know her, it's embarrassing to go, I'll pick you up later." It just so happens that I have an article in my hand that I want Mr. Fang to read. ”

"Okay." After saying that, he began to rummage through the box to find clothes to change.

In his previous life, Lin Zhiyu had always been Yang Liu's assistant, and he went back every time he entertained Lin Zhiyu, even if he didn't enliven the atmosphere at all. Yang Liu knew that he didn't like socializing, but next time he would still follow.

In this life, Yang Liu will not tie Lin Zhiyu to himself, he should have his own preferences and work, live the life he wants, and even have his own achievements, instead of becoming a man behind Yang Liu.

At 5:40, Lin Zhiyu sent Yang Liu to the door of the Nova Hotel, and then bought some food and went to Teacher Fang's house.
