Zhou Xiaoyun’s Happy Life

Chapter 187 Territory turmoil

Zhou Fang rode to her second brother Zhou Guoqiang's house. She was surprised when she saw that the old house had been demolished and the foundation was being laid: "Second brother and sister-in-law, I just heard that you are going to build a building. I wanted to take the time to come over and see if there is anything you need me for." Help, come here and see that you are all starting to work! It’s really not slow!”

Zhou Guoqiang was about to go out on his tricycle when he saw his sister coming, so he stopped the car and started chatting with her.

 Zhou Fang has always had the best relationship with Zhou Guoqiang. She said straight to the point: "Second brother, do you think you are short of money to build a house? If it is not enough, just tell me. If it is more, I don't have it, but if you want 3,500, just say you're welcome."

Zhou Guoqiang was moved in his heart, thinking that it would be better for him to be his younger sister. The eldest and the third eldest brother had an obedient conversation, but neither one of them said this: "It doesn't matter, your second sister-in-law and I have been saving for several years. I guess we have enough money to build a building." That’s enough. Thank you for your concern. I’ll tell you if I’m missing something.”

Zhou Fang said angrily: "Second brother, what kind of polite words are you talking about? We are biological brothers and sisters, I don't care who you care about! Of the four brothers and sisters, you were the first to build a building, but for Our Zhou family is very proud!"

These words were said to Zhou Guoqiang's heart, and he said excitedly: "I think so too. You see, there are only three or four families building buildings in the village. Our building can be considered as good as the one in the village." What a good family. I just want people in the village to see that I, Zhou Guoqiang, am a good person. In the past few years, I was so poor that I could hardly afford to send my children to school. Who would have thought that I would be like this one day? Thank you for lending me the money to buy a tricycle!”

Zhou Fang couldn't help but laugh when she recalled how her second brother Zhou Guoqiang had borrowed money from her uneasily a few years ago.

Zhao Yuzhen was extremely moved when she found out about Zhou Fang’s intention. Everyone loves to do this icing on the cake, but there are very few people who help when it is time for them. Zhou Fang is the most kind!

 This share of my heart will be accepted even if I don’t accept it.

Zhou Fang politely declined the kindness of Zhou Guoqiang and his wife to stay with her for dinner. She said that there were two children at home waiting for her to come home to cook and went back.

 The couple lamented behind their backs for a long time.

 You can see the human heart at this critical moment!

Of course, the other two brothers are pretty good too. Zhou Guofu took over his family's Xiaobao and Erya without saying a word. He understood that the couple was too busy to take care of the children, not only to provide them with food and sleep, but also to provide them with food and drink, which saved him a lot of trouble.

 Laosan and his wife always go to see Dabao and Daya when they have nothing to do, which is considered a good thing.

 Zhao Yuzhen's younger brother Zhao Gang took on the task of hauling bricks, cement, steel bars, etc. He only paid the cost, which saved Zhou Guoqiang a lot of money.

Zhou Guoqiang felt a little guilty and often forced some shipping costs to Zhao Gang. Zhou Guoqiang was very moved by the fact that he didn't earn a penny for hauling the goods, but he also helped lift them up and down.

Zhao Gang naturally refused to take it, and said: "Second brother and second sister, don't be so polite. I can't do anything else, so I can only do this for you. If you don't have enough money, just tell me and I will do it for you." I still have some money to pay for materials.”

The couple felt warm after saying this, so they often had to keep Zhao Gang down for lunch.

Building a building always requires someone to take care of it, so the couple had to take turns watching at home. If no one was watching, they would ask Shen Huafeng next door to come over and take care of her.

Shen Huafeng smiled more happily than he would have if he were building a building at home and agreed repeatedly.

Secretly, he raised the issue of the boundary between the two families with Zhou Guofu: "Our family and the second son's family had agreed on the boundary line when we separated. Our vegetable plot is small, so the base of the house must be ten centimeters wider, but today I saw It seems that the second family didn't pay attention to adding a few centimeters when they built the base. This is not possible. They took our land away from us! The real estate certificate did not clearly indicate the location. This location is only ours. What can we do about the verbal agreement between the two families at that time?”

Zhou Guofu didn't take Shen Huafeng's words to heart: "It's just a piece of land as big as a palm. How can it be calculated so clearly?"

They are all brothers after all, so why would they make a fuss over such a trivial matter? It would make people laugh to death!

However, Shen Huafeng didn't think so: "What's wrong with the land that's as big as a palm? No matter how small it is, it's our family's land. Why should I let the second brother and his wife occupy it for nothing? It's great to build the building first, so we can occupy more space." Well, I won’t let them go along with this.”

 To put it bluntly, I don’t want to cause some trouble for Zhou Guoqiang and his wife!

Zhou Guofu was silent. He wouldn't say this anyway.

Shen Huafeng took advantage of the afternoon when both Zhou Guoqiang and Zhou Guoqiang were at home and came over to talk about this: "I say, Haizi, his second uncle and his second aunt, don't blame me for being mean and fussy about my words. I've always been a person who doesn't speak quickly and holds back what I say. I can't help but tell the truth today. When our two families divided the vegetable plot, your family divided the vegetable plot by two centimeters and promised us a ten centimeter foundation. But now your family's foundation has to be a few centimeters larger. Yes. Look..."

 Speaking of this, Shen Huafeng paused deliberately, wanting to see the reaction of Zhou Guoqiang and his wife.

Zhou Guoqiang was stunned at first, then ran over to take a look, oh, it is really a little wider than before. Probably the bricklayer relaxed it a little when pulling the wire.

However, how can things like building a house be exactly right?

Zhou Guoqiang was somewhat critical of his sister-in-law, but he couldn't say anything. This man has no nerve to argue with women here.

Zhao Yuzhen was different. She immediately reacted: "Maybe the bricklayers didn't pay attention to loosening the wires more when pulling the wires, or I'll let them smash the foundation now!"

It was naturally impossible for Shen Huafeng not to help Zhao Yuzhen, who was about to leave, and said hypocritically: "Hey, that's all I said. How can we brothers care about so many things? Do you think so? Let's continue to build it. , let’s just suffer some losses!”

 Speaking as if you have been wronged a lot.

After Shen Huafeng left, Zhao Yuzhen was so angry that she really wanted to curse: "His father, do you think this is deliberately making us uncomfortable? It's obvious that he is jealous of us building a building and is causing trouble for us. What he said is It’s so irritating, I really want to scold her.”

Zhou Guoqiang shook his head and said: "What my sister-in-law said makes sense, but what should we do if we have already laid the foundation but can't give up a few centimeters? I can't bear to have to deal with her gossip in the future. "

Zhao Yuzhen became angry when she thought about Shen Huafeng's expression: "Come on, I won't accept her 'favor'. Let's give her two cents of the vegetable land and see what else she has to say."

This can only be done, Zhou Guoqiang nodded in agreement.

Two days later, Zhao Yuzhen found an opportunity and told Shen Huafeng about giving up two points of the small vegetable plot. Shen Huafeng got what he wanted and pretended to decline before happily accepting it.

Zhao Yuzhen said to Zhou Guoqiang: "I said we should build the building higher, and build the third floor one meter high to make an attic for storing things, so as to make people jealous."

Zhou Guoqiang did not object this time. I would rather spend more money to support this facade. Sometimes people worry too much and live a really tiring life.

 There is no other way, people live with only one face!
