The news that Ji Huai wants to buy a house is becoming more and more true as rumors spread. Everyone has changed from believing it to thinking it is really possible.

Yin Cai was shocked when he heard that he asked Sun Bin to find a carpenter. After returning, he quickly asked, "Are you really buying a house? Why did you even find a carpenter? Where is the house?"

"Buy it in two months," Ji Huai replied.

He was squatting with his arms bare to build the cement floor in the yard. When building the toilet, there were a few bags of cement and some sand left. The cement floor in the yard had pits and uneven spots, and there were holes in the corners.

The soil in the vegetable garden often spreads out after rain, making the yard muddy.

After repairing the cracks, he surrounded the vegetable garden with bricks and laid it with cement. The original bathing shed was turned into a chicken coop, and the chickens and ducks were kept inside, and a piece of land was enclosed to let it.

They can go out and move around during the day.

The remaining areas were all covered with concrete floors, which looked much better than before and seemed less cluttered.

"This..." Yin Cai didn't know whether to believe it or not. He kept looking at him and then said, "I'm in a hurry to find a carpenter now."

She always felt that something was wrong. Why should she look for things now?

He had a habit of bragging, and she was afraid that he was doing it for the sake of face, and that he would really be a laughing stock when the time came.

Ji Huai shoveled another small bucket of cement, carried it aside, and continued to build, "It's not easy to find good carpenters now. If you don't find them in advance, they will have to be dried by then. Otherwise, you will have to work hard."

Customized, custom-made wooden boards are not good, and they are very expensive. The whole house costs tens of thousands. Our place is very damp, and it will become moldy after a few years."

"I know that Sun Bin has a good relationship with Han Rui from Team 11. His father is an old carpenter and has been doing crafts for decades. He used to sell wood. There are many channels, so he can save a lot.

money."

"Nowadays, rich people are coming back to build wooden houses. They are very busy, no, they must be free. Even if they look for it now, they will not be finished by the end of the year. In the first year after buying a house, they have to live in the house to celebrate the New Year.

.”

....

Yin Cai was stunned when he heard what he said. He moved his lips but didn't know what to say.

Ji Huai used to drink and get drunk. He didn't get up until noon. His whole body was listless and sometimes he was neither a human nor a ghost. Now he works all day long. Although it is hard and tiring, he is full of energy.

He is busy, so he has to work quickly and his hands and feet must be nimble. He looks like he is walking with wind and his whole body is full of energy.

This person changed instantly, completely different from before. His words may be a little arrogant and exaggerated, but you can't completely disbelieve him.

Ji Huai has been working, and he has finished building another small bucket of cement.

Yin Cai used to boil water for cooking and buy vegetables when he came back. Now he doesn't use water for boiling, but uses a water heater directly. There are fish, shrimps, crabs, and various vegetables and fruits he brought back in the refrigerator.

?Um? I'm in such a hurry. I can take it easy when I get back.

She walked aside, took out coarse rice to feed the chickens, hesitated for a while and said, "You said that to buy three bedrooms and one living room, the down payment would be 40,000 to 50,000 yuan. You have to think about it, I don't have the money."

Really no money.

Even if there is, it is just drizzle.

"Yeah." Ji Huai buried his head and continued to build, "Let's get it right in one step."

"How much money do you have?" She spilled the rice and came out of the chicken coop. Out of excessive curiosity, she stopped and looked at him.

Ji Huai raised his head, met her eyes, suddenly smiled, and asked, "How much money do you have?"

In the past six months, whether he was at sea or transporting, he was tanned. His belly was gone, and the fat on his face was gone. He was just a black spot, but he looked like a dark and energetic young man.

.

He worked under the scorching sun, sweat seeped out, and the muscles on his arms had clear curves.

Yin Cai's heart suddenly trembled, and he became nervous. Was it because he discovered that he was saving money, or his heart started to beat faster? I'm sorry, he said casually, "I? Have no money!"

"Me? I don't have much money." He slowly looked away and continued working.

"You still want to buy a house if you don't have money?" Yin Cai didn't believe him. He threw aside the chicken feeding basin and walked directly to the kitchen. "What's the point of pretending to be poor? If you have more money, I can't spend it."

If you keep your money, even if you have money in the future, you won’t be able to share it with me!”

If you listen carefully, there is still a bit of resentment in the words.

Ji Huai did not deny it, he laughed softly and continued to lay cement.

As night fell, he sped up, built the last piece of land, took his clothes and went to take a shower. When he came out, the food was ready, and he was just in time to eat.

There were only two of them eating today. It seemed like there was something missing? What.

Ji Ziqing has gone to the city's primary school to study. At the beginning, Ji Huai found a care institution for her at the school gate. Teachers would pick her up after school, and then she would have meals on schedule. He would pick her up again in the evening and pick her up again in the morning.

Send it.

The town is more than half an hour's drive from the city. He persisted for less than half a month, but finally found that it was not working. He got up too early in the morning, and the time when he came back in the evening was not fixed. Ji Ziqing had to wait.

He went home to eat together, and it would be fine if he ate there, but the child would do his homework after eating, and she would have to wait for him to come back and do his homework again.

The time wasted on the road was too long and it was very frustrating.

Yin Cai suggested eating and resting directly there. After all, he had already eaten two meals. If he spent the night directly without paying any extra money, he could get an extra hour of sleep the next day. It would also be tiring to run back and forth.

Ji Huai was reluctant to let go, but he had no choice but to let her other side get used to it. Today was the first day.

Without Ji Ziqing's active atmosphere, Yin Cai and Ji Huai felt a little unnatural when eating. He was still able to eat well. He had already eaten one of the two fried fish and it was very delicious. He also said,

"This fish has to be fried to taste. It's too fishy when boiled in soup."

"No, it's delicious." Yin Cai didn't like eating this kind of fish and asked him to finish the other one too.

"No? Eat it?" Ji Huai asked her and put something into her bowl again, "Eat a little."

"No? I want to eat it." Yin Cai quickly picked it up and threw it into his bowl, "You said you fried two pieces, right? Did you? You wanted to eat it before you threw it to me? Eat it quickly!"

"This fish is nutritious." He picked it up silently and muttered, "I'm not even willing to sell it, so I thought I'd take it home to replenish it for you."

Yin Cai was inexplicably struck by what he said, and felt strange in his heart. He still said, "You want to eat it, right?"

Otherwise, keep it for your daughter to eat, it's none of her business.

Ji Huai saw that she really didn't want to eat, so he lowered his head and started to nibble, and said without hesitation, "This fish is really delicious."

Yin Cai: "...."

She ate her own food and ignored him.

Ji Huai finished the fish in a few seconds, "Xiaoqing, aren't you? You're really bored at home."

Yin Cai: "What's so boring? She has to do her homework at night, so it's better for you to go to sleep when she comes back. Sometimes the phone is still on and singing, which causes her trouble."

"I'm so tired. I woke up at five or six in the morning and had to pick her up and drop her off." He hugged himself, "Isn't this because I wanted to buy a house early and live in the city?"

If we can get closer, she can live at home."

As he spoke, he wondered whether his daughter would get used to living there.

After a quick meal, Ji Huai went back to his room to call his daughter.

His broken phone fell again last time and the screen was cracked. He spent more than a thousand dollars to buy a new one. This morning he gave the broken phone to Ji Ziqing so that he could answer calls easily.

.

When Yin Cai entered the room, he was talking to his daughter on the phone and turned on the loudspeaker.

On his side, he was worried about Ji Ziqing and missed her a little. But on the other side, Ji Ziqing said, "Dad, there is air conditioning here. Will it be hot if you sleep?"

"There are two other classmates in our class who didn't go back at night. We were playing checkers."

"Not yet? I told you dad."

....

Ji Huai hung up the phone and looked at the small broken electric fan in the dark house and fell into deep thought.

Before Yin Cai could reach the bed, he got on the bed next and said dullly, "We must buy a house as soon as possible. She can't live there alone? That's great. Just buy a house in that square, a few steps away from the city."

It’s small and close, you can reach home in just a few steps.”

"Don't you have much money? Can you afford it?" Yin Cai said to him deliberately.

Ji Huai lay down holding the quilt and looked at the roof.

The partition on the ceiling has been deformed, and a piece fell off last time, exposing the wood on the house, which was covered with spider webs and was also somewhat rotten.

Fortunately, Ji's father had a little money at that time, so he used good wood and it couldn't collapse for the time being.

Yin Cai thought he was pretending to be dead again and hiding it from her. His tone was very sad, "I've finished exchanging the car loan, and I only have more than 100,000 left."

"You have more than 100,000 yuan?" She was quite surprised. 100,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan was beyond her expectation, and then she said, "How can you buy a three-bedroom house with 100,000 yuan to 10,000 yuan? That's a down payment of more than 400,000 yuan."

One hundred to tens of thousands can only build a one-story house in the village.

Ji Huai clicked his tongue, frowned, looked at her sideways, and said seriously, "If you make more money this month, if you make more money next month, I'll loan the car again."

"Are there any old customers who have ordered shrimps and crabs? I have collected a deposit. The most important thing is that the boss's granddaughter celebrated her first birthday last time, so I also asked me to buy seafood. The order volume is quite large, so I guess I can make a profit."

No, it will be at the end of the month."

"It's definitely not enough. I plan to open a few more credit cards and make some advances with some supermarket owners."
