Chapter 109: Undercurrent
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Recently, because Wei Chiyu often went up the mountain, Zhang Lan stopped him from making green bean tea at the homestead.
Instead, she would cook it at home before getting Zhou Yu to send it to the homestead.
In fact, there was another very important reason why Wei Chiyu was not allowed to make green bean tea. It was too expensive!
He did not cook it till the green beans bloomed. Zhang Lan had once gone to the homestead and found out about it. After that, she did not allow Wei Chiyu to cook them green bean tea again.
Zhou Yu responded and carried the large cauldron filled with tea onto the donkey cart.
Zhou Xiaoli also brought out bowls from the kitchen and followed Zhou Yu to the homestead.
Wei Chiyu’s friend was quite reliable. The workers he found were capable, and they were all experienced builders. They learned very quickly.
Although they were unfamiliar with working with Ma Fei and the others in the beginning, under Ma Fei’s lead, they quickly reached a tacit understanding and their progress was far more efficient than before.
Zhou Xiaoliu thought to herself that she had to thank Cao Liu for selecting outstanding construction workers for her.
Ma Fei stood on the scaffolding and saw the Zhou Family’s donkey cart approaching from afar. He immediately rushed towards Zhou Xiaoli and Zhou
Soon, the donkey cart arrived in front of the homestead. Zhou Xiaoli jumped down from the donkey cart and looked up at the workers on the scaffolding with a smile. “Brothers, my mother has made tea. Come down and drink it.”
When Ma Fei saw this, he smiled and shouted, ‘Guys, the young lady from the Zhou family has brought us tea. Everyone, stop your work and come down to drink the tea. Leti s continue afterwards!”
The workers were very happy. Although the weather had become much cooler and they would not suffer from heatstroke, their mouths were still dry from being under the sun all day.
Everyone would be happy to have some tea and rest.
Soon, after Zhou Yu parked the donkey cart, the workers lined up to collect their green bean tea.
Ma Fei took the tea from Zhou Xiaoli and praised with a smile, “This is the best green bean tea I’ve ever tasted!”
When the other construction workers heard this, they nodded in agreement. The atmosphere was peaceful.
Zhou Xiaoli smiled and served a bowl of green bean tea to the last worker. Then, she glanced at the newly built house.
At this moment, the house had a rough outline. Zhou Xiaoli asked, “Brother Ma, how’s the construction going?
Ma Fei immediately patted his chest and said, “These brothers are very good. Young Lady Zhou, don’t worry. I guarantee that your house will be completed next month.
Zhou Xiaoli nodded. Together with Zhou Yu, they learned more about the progress of the house from Ma Fei.
For example, the problem of digging wells, cellars, and ice cellars.
These people had discussed this with Foreman Cao before they built the house. He knew people who specialized in digging wells, so he could just do them all together.
However, now that Foreman Cao was injured, they did not know what would happen.
Ma Fei smiled and said, “Uncle Zhou, Miss Zhou, don’t worry about this. My master has already instructed me that it won’t be a problem to find someone to dig the well and cellar.”
Zhou Xiaoli nodded, but she remembered that she hadn’t visited Foreman Cao yet. She had to discuss with Wei Chiyu when they should visit Foreman Cao’s house.
“Um, Miss Zhou, thank you for the green bean tea. We have to get back to work!
After Ma Fei returned the bowl to Zhou Xiaoli, he called the workers who had finished their green bean tea back to their posts.
Zhou Xiaoli and Zhou Yu put away the bowls. After bidding farewell to everyone, they led the donkey cart home.
When the donkey cart passed by the willow tree in the village, Zhou Xiaoli noticed two pairs of eyes looking in her direction. She could not help but look in the same direction.
She saw two village girls about her age standing under the willow tree. Zhou Xiaoli recognized both of them. One of them was the precious daughter of the Lu family’s old woman, Lu Huahua.
The other was Lai Jinniangs youngest daughter, Zhou Guihua.
Zhou Xiaoli did not have a good impression of these two people. Now that the two of them were together, it was unknown what troubles they were cooking up.
When the two of them saw that Zhou Xiaoli had discovered them, they said something to each other and left.
Zhou Xiaoli stopped paying attention to the two of them.
The donkey cart soon arrived home.
After lunch, Zhou Xiaoli told Zhou Yu and Zhang Lan before running up the mountain
As she busied himself, the day passed.
The next morning, Liu Liangcai arrived at the Zhou family home early in the morning. Together with Zhou Yu, they carried more than 45 kilograms of sugar onto the donkey cart.
Zhou Xiaoli was wolfing down the egg soup in the kitchen. Then, she took the freshly made flatbread from Zhang Lan and took two bites of it. Mihen she saw that Liu Liangcai and the others were ready, she immediately ran out.
“Uncle Liu, I’m done eating. Let’s go.”
Liu Liangcai could not help but laugh. “There’s no hurry. Eat slowly. We’ll leave after you’re done.”
Zhou Xiaoli stuffed the last mouthful of flatbread into her mouth and nodded. “I’m done, I’m done.”
At this moment, Zhang Lan walked out of the kitchen and asked Liu Lia_ngcai, “Have you eaten? Do you want to eat at home before leaving? I just made flatbread.
“No need, no need. I’ve already eaten. We also had flatbreads at home today.” As he spoke, Liu Liangcai led the donkey cart out the door.
Zhou Xiaoli has been traveling to the county city frequently recently. She was familiar with this road to the county city. She closed her eyes and knew how to go.
The journey was very smooth. Soon, they reached the entrance of the county city. After paying the entrance fee, the two of them entered the county city.
Today, Zhou Xiaoli’s and Liu Liangcai’s purpose in the county city was to sell sugar.
Therefore, after arriving at the county city, the two of them went straight to Qing Tao WOrkshop.
This time, the shop assistants immediately recognized Zhou Xiaoli when she entered the Qing Tao Workshop.
He immediately smiled and welcomed her. “Miss Zhou, you’re finally here. My shopkeeper has been looking forward to your arrival for a long time.”
Zhou Xiaoli smiled and glanced at Qing Tao Workshop. “Where’s your shopkeeper?
“My shopkeeper is inside. Wait for me. I’ll go get him now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the shop assistant ran in.
At this moment, Liu Liangcai and another assistant had already carried the sugar in.
After entering the shop, Liu Liangcai looked around and quickly followed Zhou
Xiaoli. “Little Li, is this the place where we should sell the sugar to?”
Zhou Xiaoli nodded. “Yes, it’s here. Qing Tao Workshop. We’ve signed a contract with their family. Our sugar will only be sold to them.”
Liu Liangcai nodded.
“Miss Zhou, hahaha, you’re finally here.”
At this moment, Qian Zhantang laughed and walked out quickly.
Zhou Xiaoli also smiled and nodded. “Shopkeeper Qian, the business in your shop is booming.”
“Haha, then isn’t it all thanks to Miss Zhou? You don’t know about it, but the sugar you sent last time was all sold in less than two days. However, many people came to ask. Just pre-orders alone makes 6 kilograms.” Qian Zhantang chuckled and said, “You’re finally here today..”
