Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The issue was that they hadn’t even a proper betrothal gift. Wasn’t this an embarrassnt waiting to happen?

Seeing that Mrs. Liu went silent for a long ti, Gu Zishan quickly nudged her and said, “Mother, if Hu Chun doesn’t have any bad habits, please don’t stop .”

Mrs. Liu saw that her attitude was firm, so she didn’t try to persuade her anymore. Instead, she pointed to her head and said, “You… you’ll regret this one day.”

She paused for a mont. “No, we can’t just let you go like this. 1 have to talk to your father. I’ll ask him to give you so white potatoes as your dowry.”

Gu Zishan imdiately pulled her back when she heard that. “Mother, what are you so anxious for? We haven’t even approached him for the marriage. At least, wait until the engagent is settled.”

Mrs. Liu was stunned for a mont and nodded. She then turned around and left with Gu Zishan.

When Father Gu saw they had left, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

He then got up and went to the village chief’s house.

He would be preparing so food and wine and asking the village chief to invite Hu Chun over to inquire about his preferences.

The village chief looked at him in surprise and said, “1 didn’t expect you to take a fancy to that kid.

“But you have to consider this clearly. They ca from far away, and we don’t know their roots. It will be troubleso if there are any problems in the future.”

“I saw value in him as a person. That kid’s eyes are clear and bright; he’s not a bad person.”

“That’s true. It just so happens that they need wood to build a house. How about we invite him over about this? You can talk to him when the ti cos.”

“Sure, I’ll leave this matter to you, Uncle Qian.” Father Gu paused and added, “From your words, it seems that soone had also taken a fancy to Hu Chun. Did soone ask you about it?”

“I heard from Jiaxi that many people in the village are asking about him.”

“I see. I’ll have to trouble you to invite him over.”

“No problem; I will ask so questions for you too.”

Three days later, after the foundation of the new village was cleared, the brick factory began transporting bricks over.

Hu Chun finally found the village chief to discuss buying wood.

After the village chief made an appointnt for him to check out their inventory and talk in detail that night, he imdiately asked Qian Jiaxi to send a letter to Father Gu.

After Father Gu received the news, he took a pound of cured at and went to Widow Hua’s ho to buy a fat rooster. He also carried a large jar of wine and called the patriarch to go to the village head’s house together.

When the village chief saw the thing in Father Gu’s hand, he exclaid, “Woah! You’ve really put in a lot of money.”

“Not really. If you want to treat soone, you have to do it sincerely. We can’t let them look down on us.” Father Gu said with a smile.

“True that. Co in and take a seat.” After the village chief finished speaking, he called Mrs. Bai over and asked her to cook the food Father Gu had brought.

By the ti Hu Chun arrived, the courtyard was slling with the sll of cooking at.

After entering the house, the village chief saw that Hu Chun had changed into a new set of clothes and looked much more energetic. He teased, “Young man, you’re sure getting more and more energetic. Co, sit down and have a cup of tea.”

“Thank you, Uncle Qian.” Hu Chun sat down at the square table after he finished speaking.

“I heard you plan to build brick houses in the village?” The village chief asked.

“Indeed. The bricks in the kiln yard are now one copper for two bricks. I think it’s quite affordable, so 1 ordered to build brick houses. It also allows us to build faster than a mud house.” Hu Chun explained.

“There’s such a good thing? Last year, it was three coppers for two bricks.” The patriarch exclaid in surprise.

“Maybe no one’s buying it now.”

“That’s true. Every one wants to clear their stock while they can. By the way, 1 have gone over to the wood workshop to take a look.

“Rafters are fine, but wooden beams might not be enough.

“Especially the central pillar; we still lack half of what you need..”
