Just a quick calculation, you are a fugitive!

"Is it that Boss Zhang?" Liu Chunhua asked.

After getting a positive answer, Liu Chunhua was proud: "I guessed it was him. He got the most gift money this time."

Then he frowned again: "Repairing the road, is it a cement road? It will be very steep after it is repaired, right? Can the car drive up?"

"That's why we have to ask Achen to take a look. Let's repair it in another place."

Hu Shiliang smiled and rubbed his hands: "Well, when repairing the road, it is inevitable to dig something out. With Achen here, we can also feel at ease, right?"

But there is more than just this calculation.

The village is really poor. Building bridges and roads is a great merit in the eyes of Cuicheng people. Even if it really depends on the matter, Su Chen, as a villager, can't charge more money.

Su Chen pondered for a moment and nodded to Hu Shiliang.

"Uncle Liang, let's go there the day after tomorrow."

Hu Shiliang immediately smiled: "Hey, hey, okay."

After agreeing on a time, he left happily.

Liu Chunhua was also happy.

She rubbed her still aching calf: "If the village really builds a road, cars will be able to drive up in the future, and we won't have to walk anymore. Oh, walking on the mountain road is too tiring."

Old Man Su said: "You are being hypocritical."

"I have walked on mountain roads all my life, and you are tired after walking once today."

"You are not tired. The road back is built. If you have the ability, don't take a car back."

Old Man Su shut up immediately.

Su Chen ignored the two elders, pondered for a moment, got up and went back to the house, quickly took out the remaining peach wood strips, and started carving.

Old Man Su was curious: "Achen, are you going to make a peach wood sword again?"

He saw Wang Haitao carving before, but the carving was not good, and it looked very awkward.

Su Chen nodded: "Boss Zhang gave me gifts and paid for road repairs. He also helped build my aunt's house. He also contributed to the villa before. I have to give back."

"Yes, yes, we can't be ungrateful."

Su Chen raised his hand and chiseled it down. After a while, a few pieces of peach wood took the shape of swords.

Liu Chunhua poured hot water to wash old man Su's feet, turned her head and took a look: "It's just a few pieces, not worth much, Achen, what use can it have?"

"Mom, this is lightning-struck peach wood."

It is rare in itself, and it has the effect of warding off evil spirits.

"After carving, inject divine thunder, and all evil will be invulnerable."

Liu Chunhua curled her lips: "Boss Zhang paid so much money, but this is still too small, just the size of a palm."

"What do you know? Is this thing based on size? It depends on the effect. Go, go, don't delay Achen's work."

"Go if you want to. If you have the ability, don't ask me to get you a foot cloth later."

Liu Chunhua slammed the door, leaving Old Man Su confused.

Su Chen smiled and continued carving.

Old Man Su finally called Honghong to get him a foot cloth.

Honghong poured the foot washing water and turned around to sit next to Su Chen.

"Dad..."

"Well, what's wrong?"

"Dad, can you buy me some cloth?"

Su Chen looked at her.

The little girl blushed a little: "I'm going to school, I want to make a beautiful schoolbag."

Su Chen nodded: "Okay, Dad will take you to the city tomorrow to have a look, you can choose it yourself."

"Thank you, Dad."

The little girl thanked him but didn't leave.

Su Chen looked at her again.

"Dad, what if I don't study well?"

The little girl twisted her hands together: "Tuition is so expensive~"

Su Chen laughed and put down the chisel.

"What do you think it means to study poorly?"

Hong Hong hesitated: "Well, that is, poor grades."

"Hong Hong, you have to know that there are always people better than you. Even if you get the first place, there are people who are smarter than you in a bigger city. You may not be able to get the first place even if you try your best."

Hong Hong frowned.

Su Chen rubbed her head.

"So, whether you study well or not is not judged by grades, just like a person's life, success is not judged by whether you have money or not."

"Then how to judge?" Hong Hong asked in a low voice.

"Everyone has different standards for judging. Before you are not sure what to judge by, compare yourself."

"Today I know ten more words than yesterday, and today I know a new word than yesterday. That means I have made progress, and that is good."

Su Chen scratched Honghong's nose: "Do you understand?"

Honghong still frowned, but nodded subconsciously.

"I know, Dad."

"Be good, go play with your brother and sister."

Honghong went in, and Acai slipped out again.

The little guy saw Su Chen carving peach wood, and he also took out the one he had carved before, and followed him to carve clumsily.

The light of the tungsten lamp was dim, and the figures of one big and one small were stretched on the ground. The squirrel Xiaoxian in the nest next to him suddenly opened his eyes and saw that they were carving. His tail shook and soon covered his face.

Acai was only a child of five or six years old after all.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, he fell asleep quietly on the table.

Su Chen gently put down the chisel, picked up his carving and took a look at it. The chubby little sword was quite cute.

After a good night's sleep, Su Chen was woken up by Liu Chunhua's loud voice the next day.

"Bullshit, Boss Zhang built the road because he likes your Xiao Cui, why are you so arrogant? Who would like Xiao Cui's face?"

"Get lost, don't think I don't know what you are up to, you want Xiao Cui to be someone's mistress, right? Do you have any shame?"

...

Su Chen frowned more and more as he listened.

What's going on?

Then I heard the door slam shut.

Seeing him come out, Liu Chunhua slowed down her breathing, but still said angrily: "Why is there such a thing in Niuwei Village? She was thinking of ways to trick Boss Zhang into living, and she was rushing to send her daughter off. I’ve never seen such a mean person!”

"Xiao Cui? Who is it?" Su Chen thought about it carefully, but still couldn't match the name to the face of the girl in the village.

Liu Chunhua put her waist in: "You are not from our village, but from the town. Do you know the old man who makes the cakes?"

Su Chen nodded.

"She lives next door to his house, and Yuxiu is her niece."

"Yuxiu?" Who is it again?

"You don't know? Ah Huai's wife."

Su Chen suddenly realized.

Then he asked: "What's going on?"

Liu Chunhua said angrily: "It's not the day of the birthday banquet yet. Xiao Cui happened to come to the village to watch the Yu show. Seeing the excitement here, she came over to join us. It happened that your third sister was recording the gift money and she noticed her. She was thinking about it. Yesterday Yu Xiu went to ask your eldest brother and the others, but he didn’t find out anything. He came directly to the door today, and even said with a big face that boss Ren Zhang fell in love with Xiaocui and built the road for her. I really..."

Liu Chunhua looked around, picked up the broom and punched the ground hard twice before she became discouraged: "I'm so angry!"

"How could there be such a messy person?"

Old man Su was laughing beside him: "Why are you angry? They have made it clear that they have no shame and no skin. It's useless for you to say anything."

"I……"

"Don't be angry, we will move out in a while anyway, and they can say whatever they want, but it won't reach your ears."

Liu Chunhua was still angry: "No, Boss Ren Zhang is building roads with good intentions, and he is being criticized like this? Are you okay with that?"

"And that Xiao Cui, the well-dressed one, went to the south to work two years ago. She seems to be unsettled. What if Boss Zhang is taken advantage of?"

What can be done?

After breakfast, Su Chen heard Old Man Su come back and say that Yuxiu had been called to talk by Hu Shiliang and asked her to conduct self-examination in the whole village.

However, she got into a quarrel with Hu Shiliang, took off her coat and rolled around. In the end, Hu Shiliang was so angry that he threatened the Li family not to do road construction work in the future, so the Li family forcibly took her away.
