Early the next morning, Mu Wan'er and Shen Zui got up early and freshened up. As soon as they opened the door, they saw Sister-in-law Xu sitting on a small stool at the door.
"You guys are awake. I asked someone to find a carpenter for you first. Let's finish the beams today. Then we don't have to worry about the wood for the walls and other places. You can buy it if you want. If you don't want to buy it, you can cut it yourself. When the time comes, Let the carpenter take care of it again."
Sister-in-law Xu didn't have the cautious feeling she had yesterday, and had a fiery temper again.
In just a few sentences, you can clearly express what you need to do and how to do it.
"The carpenter is waiting for you in the woods over there. I have also asked people to tell the surrounding villagers that anyone who is free will come to help you."
After saying this, Sister-in-law Xu Shan gave a slight salute and turned to leave.
"Sister-in-law, please wait a moment."
Mu Wan'er quickly walked down the few steps, which were not very high, and came to Sister-in-law Xu, who still did not apply rouge and gouache today.
"Sister-in-law, you leave it to others to tell me. I understand what you mean. You think about us, but you really don't have to think about it that much. People live for themselves.
If you feel that you are inferior to others everywhere, you are really belittling yourself. Let's go together. "
As she spoke, Mu Wan'er took Xu Shan's hand, lifted up her skirt, and walked towards the woods with her head held high.
Shen Zui followed behind, her peach blossom eyes full of smiles.
The woods are actually not far from Grandma Chen's thatched house, just a few hundred steps away.
In the distance, several people had already heard the noise in the forest, and it seemed that there were many people there.
As I got closer, it turned out that most of them were familiar faces. Although they may not have spoken much, at least there were people who said hello in the fields.
This worldly world is much better than the immortal family on the mountain. Although the immortals are polite and considerate when meeting, the road is ruthless and everyone is actually a potential opponent.
On the surface, he is amiable, but secretly he is difficult to understand what others are thinking in their hearts.
Take the Shenzui Changsheng Sect as an example. This kind of thing has not happened before.
In the early years, there were two extraordinary geniuses who were trained together since childhood and competed with each other.
Later, when one person was climbing the realm, he was slightly slower than the other person, and distracting thoughts arose in his heart.
He did not practice seriously, but spent many years planning and used a "killing with a borrowed knife" strategy to get rid of his long-standing opponent.
After that, this monk became famous for several years, monopolizing the luck on the mountain, and his realm climbed rapidly.
But in the end, the fire could not be contained, and the conspiracy was later exposed, and the sect leader and several elders jointly killed him.
The most disastrous consequence of this incident was that the Eternal Life Sect was in a state of decline for a hundred years. It was not until Shen Zui appeared that the decline was reversed.
But in the mortal world below the mountain, especially in the countryside, there is probably no such kind of intrigue and intrigue. If there were some bad things, they were mostly things that the village gossips and bachelor men didn't talk about.
So when Mu Wan'er held Sister Xu's hand and Shen Zui followed, the people in the village were stunned at first. Although there were some puzzled looks on everyone's faces, most of them still didn't care.
No matter what, Mrs. Xu is still from her own village. Even if her reputation is not very good, if she really wants to say that she has some unclear relationship with any wild man, no one can really guarantee that she must have it.
In a village where you can't see anything when you look up, it's even harder to hide this kind of thing, so some people are just making fun of her, maybe they don't understand why they have such a deep prejudice against this widow.
"Carpenter Li, this is the real owner. If you need anything, just ask them."
Xu Shan stepped forward and said hello to a stout man wearing simple clothes and a turban on his head.
Li Carpenter seemed to be an honest man, and he was speechless. He just nodded to Mu Wan'er and Shen Zui as a greeting, and then showed a simple and honest smile.
"Carpenter Li, this is the wood we selected. Please cut it down and rest it for a while. This is our new house."
After Shen Zui finished speaking, he raised his hand towards Carpenter Li opposite him.
Unexpectedly, these words came out of his mouth, but they made everyone around burst into laughter. Many women in the village raised their arms and covered their faces with their sleeves to hide their smiles.
Some women who didn't care much about it didn't care about etiquette. They grinned boldly and even scratched their faces with their fingers from time to time.
Some men nearby who liked to think about the fight between gods on the bed even started to whistle and clapped their hands hard.
These actions made Shen Zui confused. He felt that there was nothing wrong with these words. Why did the people around him react like this?
Mu Wan'er's face was as embarrassed as a red apple. She turned around and punched Shen Zui's arm lightly.
"What are you talking about?"
At this moment, the girl wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
It's true that she likes to get drunk, but she has never experienced anything like this. When she was in school, she was just an ordinary little girl.
I have also fantasized about being proposed to in public, but it’s not like this kind of public embarrassment at all!
Granny Chen, who was sitting next to her, waved to Shen Zui and then said a few words in Shen Zui's ear.
Shen Zui first went from being confused at first, to shocked, and then finally flushed. A few expressions can be displayed vividly in just a few breaths.
The noise around them slowly subsided, and weddings and funerals were considered the most important events in the world.
Especially in the village, it is considered first-class. So most of the jokes that usually have a bit of a naughty nature are focused on this aspect.
This was the first time Shen Zui encountered this scene, but the tolerance he had cultivated over the years kept him from panicking.
The so-called immortal spirit is like this.
"I made a mistake. My words are slightly different in different places. Shen Zui has this idea, but I don't know what Miss Mu thinks?"
Now it was Mu Wan'er's turn to be shocked. She didn't expect that this would actually turn into a proposal on the spot.
"me···"
Mu Wan'er was at a loss and stood there, holding the corner of her clothes.
Shen Zui was not dissatisfied at all. He came to the girl in a few steps and put his hands around her body. "It doesn't matter, I can wait."
There was another burst of whistles that resounded through the sky, one after another.
Such a bold show of love is not to be said that it is impossible for a living family to have such a bold show of love. Even in this mountainous place with little education, it is rare.
But this time, there was less teasing and hooting in everyone's eyes. Instead, many women quietly pinched their men's arms.
"Look at others, and then look at you."
"Why do people's love words sound so nice? The key is that they are good-looking. I am so envious of this girl Mu."
On one side, the men bared their teeth, while on the other side, the women and girls were filled with excitement.
Mu Wan'er looked at the drunken man in front of her, wrinkled her small and exquisite nose, pretended to be vicious, and stretched out her palm to explore his forehead.
"You don't have a fever, right? It's getting weirder and weirder. Fix the main beam quickly."
Shenzui nodded and reluctantly let go of the girl's shoulders with his fingers.
He turned back to Carpenter Li and said, "Master, let's start working. I'll help you!"
"Okay, let's get started!"
