Mu Siyu came in from the outside and saw Mrs. Tong rubbing her eyes, and asked with concern: "Why are you crying?"
Mrs. Tong put down her hand and said with half-squinted eyes: "No, I didn't cry. I was smoked when I was chopping onions and couldn't open my eyes."
"Let me help you wash it."
Mu Siyu helped Tong clean her eyes and helped her sit down.
"Stop it, I'll do the rest. You can rest here for a while."
Tong's eyes were half-squinted, and she felt warm in her heart as she watched Mu Siyu busying about skillfully.
"It will take a few days to build the house, so you should live here for the next few days. I will make two more beds for you while there are many people to help."
There are many men working, and asking them to help with many heavy tasks can save a lot of effort. In order to thank them, in addition to their wages, we can cook more delicious food for them.
"No need, we just get two wooden boards and make do with it. This is how we have been living for these years."
Where can the good things from the Mu family get their turn in the second room? Until now, the bed in Mu Dashan's room is just a wooden board with a stone cushion underneath. When you lie on it, you don't dare to turn over, and it makes a sound when you turn over.
"The past was the past, and the present is now. You couldn't make the decision before, but now you can make the decision for yourself. Since you make the decision, why don't you make yourself more comfortable?"
It took three days to repair the house, and another half a day to build a courtyard wall. Looking from the outside, the dilapidated house that was still crumbling just a few days ago seemed to be dozens of years younger, and it suddenly became energetic.
"Sister-in-law Yi, did you make these two beds?" Lu Daniu asked in surprise.
"Haven't you been helping me these past few days? The wood was brought down from the mountain by you, don't you know?"
Mu Siyu looked at the brand new room with a sense of accomplishment in her eyes.
"In a few days, I'll make a few cabinets to put things in. This home can be considered a presentable home." Mu Siyu said, handing a lock to Mu Zhenghan who was in a daze: "Then, from now on, this is where you and I will live."
Mother’s home.”
Mu Zhenghan's hands were shaking.
He has a family.
A month ago, he was still working humbly under the Jiang family's curse, like a slave in that family. In just one month, his life has undergone earth-shaking changes.
"Thank you...sister." Mu Zhenghan looked at her gratefully.
Mu Siyu smiled lightly: "I didn't do anything. If you want to thank me, thank your brother-in-law."
Mu Zhenghan looked at Lu Yi who was not far away: "Thank you, brother-in-law. Brother-in-law, I will repay you in the future."
"This kid." Several men in the village laughed kindly.
"Let's stay for dinner tonight! We'll treat it as a warm house." Mu Siyu invited everyone. "I also want to formally thank everyone for your help these days. I always ask you to help me move things. Thank you for your hard work."
Everyone was embarrassed.
However, there is really nothing to say about Mu Siyu's craftsmanship.
Lu Daniu looked at Lu Yi with envious eyes: "Brother Yi, you are really lucky."
Lu Yi glanced at Mu Siyu lightly and said nothing.
Everyone was embarrassed to agree at first, but Mu Siyu invited them very enthusiastically and even asked them to bring their family members. Seeing that she was not polite, they actually went back and brought their family members.
"Lu Yi, go and invite the village chief and his family."
Mu Siyu found Lu Yi who was carrying water and arranged some tasks for him without any courtesy.
"I'll go." Lu Xuan said from the side.
"You have to stay and help me light the fire. I can't do it alone." Mu Siyu said.
Lu Xuan sneered: "You have arranged things clearly for us."
Lu Yi looked at Lu Shaoyu and Lu Zhiyun who were choosing vegetables. Mu Zhenghan, who came back from picking vegetables, confirmed what Lu Xuan said, "arrange them clearly".
Mu Siyu didn't pay attention to Lu Yi's inspection.
She had to prepare several tables of dishes by herself, and she was so busy that she had no time to think about anything else.
The banquet is held today, firstly, to thank the villagers for their help, and to establish good relations with the villagers. The original owner was so incompetent that she offended everyone. She had to bring this situation back. Secondly, it was to show them
Pamper yourself and let them understand how virtuous Mu Siyu is now. Third, show everyone that even if Tong and Mu Zhenghan move out, they are still her family and she will not ignore them.
Everyone knows the situation of the Lu family, and they will not eat their food for nothing. Everyone who comes will bring some vegetables or rice wine they have saved. If these are not available, they have to bring a few freshly laid eggs to make them look good.
The host was warm and the guests were courteous. This banquet was warmer than expected. After all, the people chosen by Lu Yi personally must have been in the company of each other on a regular basis and were not snobbish.
Mu Dashan stood outside the door, listening to the lively voices inside, feeling as if a big stone was weighing on his heart.
He has nothing to eat today.
He went out to work at dawn. After a long day of work, he was so tired that he couldn't lift his hands. However, because of Jiang's hatred towards Tong, he was so angry that he didn't even stutter.
He didn't know how he got here.
Creak! The door opened and a child ran out.
The child must not have expected that there was a figure here, and because it was too dark, he could only see a shadow, and he was so frightened that he cried loudly.
"Wow……"
"What's wrong? Dog!"
A woman ran over anxiously.
"Why are you crying? Did you fall?" The woman picked up the little boy and saw Mu Dashan standing there awkwardly. "Dashan, what are you doing standing here? You scared our dog.
."
Everyone who was talking inside stopped talking and looked towards the door in confusion.
Suddenly you looked at me and I looked at you, and finally a pair of eyes looked at Mr. Tong who was sitting there shyly.
Tong stood up suddenly and wanted to go out to take a look, but was held back by Mu Zhenghan.
The little Mu Zhenghan looked at Tong with serious eyes: "Don't go."
"Han'er, that's your father!" Tong said nervously: "He must have regretted coming to see us. He still cares about us."
Mu Siyu frowned, scooped a spoonful of egg custard and fed it to Lu Zhiyun.
"Xiaoyun'er, eat more."
"Mom, Yun'er has eaten a lot, you should eat too." Lu Zhiyun pushed the spoon towards her mouth.
"Mother Shaoyu, how did you raise these two children? Why do you love them so much more than the other?" The sister-in-law next to her said with envy: "They are also beautiful and lively, like a fairy boy in front of the Bodhisattva's throne."
"Like their father, they were born and raised." Mu Siyu said.
Lu Xuan's mouth twitched.
What a flatterer.
However, it is indeed true.
Everyone knows what Lu Yi looks like. Before he was disfigured, he was the dream lover of many women.
Tong was finally caught by Mu Zhenghan.
Tong's eyes were red and she wiped her tears secretly.
Mu Siyu finally figured it out. The only one who could solve the problem in this family was Mu Zhenghan. Even though Mu Zhenghan was young, he had much more brains than Tong.
Mu Zhenghan picked up two sesame seed cakes and a chicken drumstick and walked towards the courtyard gate.
