Chapter 102: Finding the Door
Zheng Xinyue asked uncertainly: "Senior Brother Zhou, is it really okay?"
Seeing Zhou Jing nod, Zheng Xinyue thanked her excitedly.
You should know that you can learn a lot by following your senior brother and senior sister. No wonder she was so excited.
After separating from Zhou Jing, Lin Xi looked at the time and saw that it was already noon. She was the only one home and had to cook. Not wanting to cause trouble, she invited the two of them to go to the cafeteria together.
Feng Mengdi smiled and refused: "I'm not hungry yet, you go ahead."
Zheng Xinyue was curious: "I remember you only had a bowl of porridge for breakfast today. I ate two steamed buns and now I'm a little hungry."
The smile on Feng Mengdi's face froze for a moment, but she still whispered: "I have a small appetite. I haven't finished the food I brought home, so I won't go."
"Did you bring something from home? How long has it been? Don't..."
Zheng Xinyue wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Lin Xi: "I guess Mengdi is tired after a busy morning, so let her go back to the dormitory to rest first."
Feng Mengdi was immediately relieved: "Yes, I am indeed a little tired."
Zheng Xinyue nodded, said nothing more, and left with Lin Xi.
After eating in the school cafeteria, Lin Xi walked home. If he didn't take the main road, he walked through the alley opposite the school and got home in about ten minutes.
She took a nap first, then got up to pick up Shen Xiaofei from school.
This child has good social skills and adapts well to the new environment.
The couple bought groceries and went home to cook. After eating, Lin Xi studied while Shen Xiaofei took his newly bought marbles to challenge other children in the alley.
In the next few days, Lin Xi has been living a step-by-step life. If there is any difference, she is studying harder than before.
In addition to her usual professional classes, she is also speeding up her learning of later knowledge, trying to catch up with Zhou Jing and the others.
After all, in their experimental projects, apart from discussions, no one will waste time tutoring you to explain the principles. You have to understand everything by yourself.
Sometimes when the team needed it, she didn't even have time to pick up Shen Xiaofei. So she simply asked Aunt Yang to help pick her up.
She asked to pay, but Aunt Yang got very angry with her because of this, and Lin Xi was so frightened that she never dared to mention money again.
Just when she was extremely busy, the Lin brothers had a quarrel over something.
"If my second brother hadn't impulsively started a fight, we wouldn't be in trouble, and we'd have someone extort a hundred yuan from us. If Captain Xiao hadn't come forward, we would still be in trouble right now."
Lin Jiandang felt uncomfortable and couldn't help but reveal everything that happened during this period.
"It's a time when we are short of manpower to build a house. If you don't have a job and don't help at home, you insist on selling popcorn with me. Besides, those people just talked a few words and nothing happened, so you're going to kill me."
Beating someone will also make me suffer with you."
Lin Jianye was also very angry. He pointed at him and said: "You are being strung up on your neck and shit, and you don't even make a sound. I can't do that. And who doesn't know about your little tricks? I
I was also thinking that when my family is in need of money, I helped you sell popcorn and sold it wrong? Let me tell you, I don’t care about such a small amount of money."
"Second brother!" Lin Jianguo frowned and yelled: "We are all brothers, don't say hurtful words."
Lin Jianye snorted: "Everyone knows what the third child is thinking. He is afraid that I will split the money. Do you think I am that kind of person? I will pay the one hundred yuan myself. Next time someone goes to his stall to cause trouble, let him do it himself."
Yes, he deserves to be bullied."
Lin Jiandang choked: "When did I say I was afraid of you sharing the money? I just..."
"That's enough." Lin Youfa stopped the two of them with a stern face.
"My second brother has good intentions, but his temper needs to change. Fortunately, he only needed a few stitches. If it really happened, what would your mother and I do if we were to die?"
Lin Jianye stopped talking, but it was obvious that he didn't listen to what Lin You said.
He can eat anything, but he can never eat losses.
"Dad, I opened 20,000 bricks in the brick factory and the money has been paid. Let's borrow a car to bring the bricks back tomorrow." Lin Jianjun said and handed the receipt to Lin Youfa.
The price of a brick is 0.027 per brick, so 20,000 bricks are nearly 600 yuan.
Cement is 24 yuan per ton, steel bars are 680 yuan per ton, sand and gravel are 10 yuan per cubic meter, and doors and windows can be purchased for 200 yuan.
Therefore, a whole house of more than 100 square meters will cost about 1,500 yuan.
Originally, the family didn't have that much money, so my father and I planned to build a house out of adobe, but now Lin Jianjun directly cut out the bricks and built a big brick house in one step.
"I know exactly how much money each of you has taken, and I will pay it back to you when my family is rich."
The brothers knew that he had a more serious temper, so no one said anything.
"Is anyone home?"
Suddenly a woman's voice came. Everyone looked out the window and found that the other person was a woman about fifty years old.
Mother Zhao stood in front of the fence and stretched her neck as she looked into the yard. When she saw the stones and sand all over the yard, she couldn't help but curl her lips.
There was not a single red brick, so it looked like an adobe house was going to be built. Many of the brothers in the family were living like this, and I was really ashamed for them.
Seeing Fan Xiumei coming out, she quickly stretched out the hem of her clothes, half-raised her chin and asked, "Is this the old Lin family?"
Fan Xiumei opened the courtyard door: "Who are you, his aunt?"
Seeing her answer, Mother Zhao knocked him away and shouted into the yard: "Where's that little bastard Lin Jianye? Let him come out! Lin Jianye——"
Hearing someone calling his name, Lin Jianye rushed out of the room immediately: "Who are you? What are you doing to me?"
He is already tall and strong, but just throwing a pestle in front of him is really a bit scary.
Zhao's mother flinched, but quickly straightened her back: "Are you Lin Jianye? You know what you have done. You can mess up my family's Hongqi marriage, how can you be at ease?"
Hearing that she was Zhao Hongqi's mother, Lin Jianye suppressed his temper and explained: "I happened to bump into her at that time, and that man's job was not human affairs at all. You can't throw your daughter into a fire pit just by looking at the city's registered residence.
Litui.”
"Bah! How can I harm my own daughter? I think you are just a toad who wants to eat swan meat. You don't show your own virtue by peeing in the urine. What are the conditions of your family and what are the conditions of my family? If you miss my family's red flag, you will die.
Keep this in mind."
Her voice was thick and high, and soon a lot of people gathered around the entrance of the courtyard.
Although Fan Xiumei didn't know the specific matter, she still stepped forward to persuade her: "His aunt, if you have anything to do, why don't we talk about it in the house? It's not good to make a noise and let outsiders see it."
