The Capitalist’s Spoiled Young Master? Perfect to Take Home as a Husband Chapter 171

"Alright," Mu Shian replied. His gaze lingered on Song Nianchu for a mont before he finally looked away.

In the distance, Song Nianchu didn't notice Mu Shian at all; she was too busy frantically roasting Xiang Tianyi in her head.

"Heh, if you actually have the heart to do it, I have no objections," Xiang Tianyi snorted.

"Then wait until our village's workshop becos a massive factory. Once we have so spare cash, I'll definitely mold a golden statue for you," Song Nianchu said with a fake smile.

"You'd better keep your word."

"I never lie." The expression on Song Nianchu's face was exceptionally serious.

She had said once they had spare cash, but she never guaranteed exactly how much spare cash that would be.

Xiang Tianyi naturally saw right through Song Nianchu's little sche at a glance. He didn't press the issue, his peripheral vision casually sweeping the surroundings.

"Didn't you say you were married? Where is your husband?"

"He's busy right now. Did you need him for sothing?" Song Nianchu asked in confusion.

"Nothing, just asking," Xiang Tianyi said flatly.

"Oh." Song Nianchu didn't pry any further.

anwhile, the minds of the power supply station workers standing nearby were blown.

This young woman was married?

Then what was going on with Xiang Tianyi?

He couldn't possibly have taken a fancy to a married woman, could he?

No, no, no, that was absolutely impossible.

With his family's background and status, he would never get entangled with a married woman.

But Xiang Tianyi's attitude towards her was clearly different.

"Alright, since we've inspected everything clearly, we'll be heading back." Xiang Tianyi didn't say anything more, rely casting a glance at the power supply station workers.

"R-right..." The few n quickly snapped back to their senses and nodded repeatedly.

"So when can we start construction?" Song Nianchu could hardly wait.

Life without electric lights was truly difficult. Lighting kerosene lamps at night was not only dim, but it also left the inside of her nose completely black.

When washing her face in the morning, she even had to wash out her nose.

"The application here will still take a few days. Probably... everything will be approved in three days." A power supply station worker glanced at Xiang Tianyi and forcefully changed five days to three days.

"Okay, do we need to prepare anything on our end?" Hearing that she only had to wait three more days, Song Nianchu's heart leaped with joy.

"You just need to prepare so lightbulbs yourselves; you don't need to prepare anything else," the worker replied.

"Alright, I'll keep that in mind." Song Nianchu nodded heavily.

"Then... we'll be going?" The workers looked at Xiang Tianyi inquiringly.

"Mhm." Xiang Tianyi gave a faint response and strode forward.

"Manager Xiang, let walk you out." Song Nianchu followed after him with unparalleled enthusiasm.

"You're only ever this enthusiastic at tis like this," Xiang Tianyi shot her a cold sidelong glance.

"Don't slander like that." Song Nianchu refused to take the bla.

Whenever Xiang Tianyi wasn't trying to scam her, she was always very enthusiastic toward him.

Hmph.

Xiang Tianyi rely gave a cold snort and didn't say anything more.

Xiang Tianyi and his group had driven over in a car. When Song Nianchu walked them to the village entrance, she saw the car parked to the side.

Song Nianchu's eyes were filled with envy as she looked at the car. To think that back in the day, she had car after car parked in her garage, yet now she didn't even own a bicycle.

"What, you have your eye on my car?" Xiang Tianyi raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah, I need to work hard so I can buy one too." Song Nianchu nodded without any hesitation.

"Do you even know how to drive, wanting to buy one?" Xiang Tianyi found it amusing.

"It's not exactly difficult. Once I buy it, I'll naturally know how to drive." Song Nianchu didn't even want to ntion that she had passed her driving test on the first try back then, with perfect scores across the board.

"Alright, then I'll wait for you to buy a new car and treat to a drink." Xiang Tianyi smiled as he walked toward his vehicle.

Song Nianchu felt as though she was being looked down upon, and anger imdiately rushed to her head.

Was this guy looking down on her, or looking down on won?

Once she bought a car in the future, she would definitely make a point of driving it in circles right in front of him.

After Xiang Tianyi got into the car, Song Nianchu was about to head back to the village. Unexpectedly, Xiang Tianyi rolled down his window, poked his head out slightly, and shouted at her.

"Hurry up with my goods. If you fail to et the quota again next ti, I'm going to deduct your penalty fee."

"I know," Song Nianchu said, growing even angrier.

The smile on Xiang Tianyi's lips, however, deepened.

He felt that Song Nianchu's flustered and exasperated look was much prettier than her previous fake, mannequin-like smile.

"Alright, I'm leaving." Xiang Tianyi rolled the window back up.

This ti, Song Nianchu didn't rush to leave. She waited until Xiang Tianyi's car had driven far away before finally turning around.

When she returned to the workshop, Wu Zhenggui imdiately ca up to greet her.

"Chu, what did the power supply station workers say? Can we get electricity over here?" Wu Zhenggui's tone carried a hint of nervousness.

"Yes, the power supply station workers said they'll probably co over to start construction in about three days." Song Nianchu purposely waited a mont before smiling.

"Really?" Wu Zhenggui exclaid.

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you about sothing like this?" Song Nianchu was also very happy.

"That's wonderful! We'll have electricity in three days!" Wu Zhenggui felt like he could go out right now and set off a few strings of firecrackers.

"Construction will still take so ti," Song Nianchu reminded him.

"Right, right, right, pulling the power lines over will take ti. But whether it's three days, five days, or ten days, we can wait, as long as we get electricity." Wu Zhenggui didn't care about these details at all.

"Right, as long as we can get electricity." Song Nianchu nodded, then rembered what the power supply station workers had told her earlier. "By the way, the workers just said we need to prepare our own lightbulbs. Have soone register everything later, and we'll go to the city to buy them all at once."

"Okay, I'll go register them right now." Wu Zhenggui was growing impatient.

"There's no need to rush. We can buy them when the electricity is about to be connected," Song Nianchu said.

"Alright, then we'll wait a bit longer." Wu Zhenggui forced down the excitent in his heart.

And in less than half an hour, everyone in the entire village—even the dogs—knew they were getting electricity.

Even while working, everyone's faces were filled with smiles.

When she finished work at noon and returned ho, Song Nianchu was just about to start cooking when Mu Haoxuan and Mu Yongnian ran into the house like the wind.

Seeing Song Nianchu, they imdiately crowded around her.

"Sister, Sister, is our village really getting electricity?" Mu Haoxuan asked, tilting his little face upward.

"Yes, but we still have to wait a little while," Song Nianchu nodded.

"That's great! Will our house have electricity too?" Mu Haoxuan couldn't help but confirm again.

"Of course we will."

"It's true, it's true, what they said is true! Our house is really going to have electricity!" Mu Haoxuan spun around in circles happily.

Back when he lived in Beijing, their ho had electricity. After coming to Qinghe Fishing Village, they had to light kerosene lamps at night, and he really wasn't used to it.

He had thought he'd never be able to use electric lights again in his life; he hadn't expected them to get electricity so soon.

Looking at the overjoyed Mu Haoxuan and Mu Yongnian, a smile also graced Song Nianchu's face.

But just then, an urgent voice suddenly called out from outside the door.

"Chu, co quickly! Comrade Mu is injured!"
