Chapter 62 Active Residence

Chapter 62 Youyuanju

In order to build the new yard as soon as possible, Shen Yunyao asked Liu to find more nearby villagers to do the work, and two more brick kilns were built.

Before the autumn harvest, Shen Yunyao's large garden-style yard was finally completed.

Shen Yunyao asked someone to set up the waterwheel she had made by the river closest to her home.

A water-powered mill was built next to the river, and water from the water wheel was directed into the new courtyard through water pipes made of thick bamboo poles. Each yard was connected by water pipes.

Thinking of the spring water she had encountered on the mountain, she specially laid a bamboo water pipe to take the spring water and guide it to the yard at the foot of the mountain. No one else dared to go up the mountain, so she had to do it on her own.

Shen Yunyao gave the village kiln how to make ceramic tiles, and she also laid ceramic tiles on the floor of her new home.

She also gave them how to make glass. Fortunately, a few people were particularly fond of studying and made glass.

Shen Yunyao also couldn't wait to install glass on her new yard.

For this purpose, the village expanded the kiln factory and added several places dedicated to refining glass and ceramic tiles.

After the new house was built, Shen Yunyao inscribed a plaque. Mu Hanxiao originally thought that this girl would ask him to inscribe it, but in the end, she didn't say anything, and he felt a little unhappy.

The words "Youyuanju" are written on the plaque.

Shen Yunyao was very satisfied with her words. Ever since the plaque was hung, she loved to stand at the door and read these words.

The newly built courtyards are almost built according to the layout of Shen Yunyao's drawings.

Before entering her new home, Mrs. Liu invited the whole village to a moving banquet.

There was a lot of fish and meat at the banquet.

Originally, people in the village couldn't catch fish and hardly ate fish, but this time they ate very much.

After finishing the banquet, they vaguely felt that their hidden illnesses were all cured, and they couldn't believe it.

Shen Yunyao saw that her eldest uncle, her second uncle's family, and Li Jing's family were also here.

Although none of them brought a penny as a gift, she didn't care as long as they didn't cause trouble on this big day.

These people are pretty good at eating.

Li Lan was not eager to eat, but still wanted to take it. All the unfinished dishes at the table where she was sitting were swept into the bamboo tube by her.

The eldest aunt Zhao was jealous of this big courtyard. There were so many courtyards and so many rooms. She must have room for her and the second family to live together.

When Ms. Liu came to the table to toast politely, she said to Ms. Liu unceremoniously: "Brothers and sisters, you are so thoughtful that you built a big yard for my house. I will choose one soon. Don't worry, it will definitely be your choice." I’ll choose again when I’m done.”

Mrs. Liu was confused, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand you?"

"With so many courtyards, aren't they prepared for my family and my second family's family?" Zhao asked with wide eyes.

Shen Yunyao stood beside Mrs. Liu and said, "I built my own house, why do I do it for you? What a beautiful idea!"

"You, why are you building so many houses?" Ms. Zhao finally realized that she had made a mistake.

Shen Yunyao said: "Our family likes a big place, so we can take turns living in it with so many yards."

Shen Yunyan glared at Shen Yunyao fiercely, thinking that you were just showing off on purpose!

Zhao said in a gentle tone: "We are all one family, and we haven't been separated for a long time. Why don't we live together again, get together, let's reunite, and work together in the future to do things together as a family."

"Sister-in-law is right, no one in my family is trustworthy." Second Aunt Qian interrupted.

Shen Yunyao curled her lips and thought to herself: Second aunt, if you have the ability, don't hurt me secretly, how much can I still trust you?

She said: "Everyone has a good meal. You will know what these houses are used for in the future. Mom, let's go to the next table."

After saying that, she took Ms. Liu away.

Mu Hanxiao was not in the bustling first two courtyards. He found a third-floor room in the third courtyard and stood by the window to watch the scenery.

"Sir! I'm lost, may I ask..."

Mu Hanxiao looked down and saw the girl downstairs looking at him with a red face.

Why is that face so ordinary!

The girl obviously didn't expect this. Her eyes widened in surprise and she immediately said, "Don't bother me, sir. I'll look for it myself."

She was worried about talking too much, what if this person really fell in love with her? She thought he was a handsome man, but he didn't expect him to look like this.

Mu Hanxiao sneered, this girl is so realistic, he ignored her and continued to look away.

"Why are you running here? Go to the front to eat. The door is over here." As soon as Shen Yunyao entered the courtyard, he saw the girl with a blushing face talking to Mu Hanxiao upstairs.

She didn't quite recognize the man, thinking he might be from the village.

"Are you going to eat in front or here?" Shen Yunyao raised her head and asked Mu Hanxiao.

Mu Hanxiao said politely: "That's it."

"Okay, just wait for a while."

Today, the clan school has a day off for the banquet of Shen Yunyao's family. Shen Yunhao entertains his friends in the front yard.

Shen Yunyao asked him to deliver food to Mu Hanxiao.

Mu Hanxiao was not used to the days when no one was around to serve tea and water, so he bribed Shen Yunhan and Shen Yunhao with money to do some small things for him.

When Shen Yunhao heard what his sister said, he immediately did it. He was wondering if he could earn a few more pennies from that big brother.

Sure enough, Mu Hanxiao waited for Shen Yunhao to serve him food, and after eating, he gave Shen Yunhao ten coins, "You can earn pocket money by yourself at such a young age, not bad. Use it to buy snacks."

He just said something pleasant to get Shen Yunhao to do more work for him.

In fact, he already had his own business when he was nine years old, but no one was as talented as him.

Shen Yunhao happily packed up the dishes and sent them back to the kitchen. He was making money from his own labor and was in a very good mood.

"Xiao Hao, how much did it cost to build this house?" Zhao met Shen Yunhao in the kitchen and pulled him aside to a quiet place to ask.

Shen Yunhao said: "I don't know. My mother and sister are in charge of this matter."

Seeing how sneaky his aunt was, he didn't want to talk to her.

"I heard that your sister came up with all the money-making ideas. Almost all the money was earned by your sister. Did your sister give your mother the land deed for this house? Your sister will get married in the future, so you should give it to her as soon as possible. Your mother got the title deed."

Shen Yunhao looked impatient, but soon turned expressionless and said perfunctorily: "Auntie, I understand. However, my family has its own plans for my family's affairs, so I don't need to worry about it."

"Hmph, I'm still doing it for your own good! Your sister is an outsider, from now on..." Ms. Zhao curled her lips and was interrupted mid-sentence.

Shen Yunhao said in his heart, you are so idle, what are you doing for my family? When did you not consider your own family? What you told me must be for your own family!

Sow discord!

He had to hide, otherwise the eldest aunt would never stop saying, "Auntie, my little brothers are still waiting for me, let's go first."

After he finished speaking, he ran away, never giving Zhao a chance to speak again.

Ms. Zhao spat, "You little bastard, you run really fast!"

Shen Yunyao had already gone to greet the distinguished guests outside the gate.
Chapter completed!
