Chapter 132 The House is Completed
Seeing Old Man Fan so angry that he was fuming, Su Man didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Okay, let's go together. Anyway, I promised to take care of you until the end of your life. I can't lie to you."
"That's more like it." Old Man Fan said proudly, "Besides, I'm a doctor. You will benefit a lot if you take me with you."
"Yes, yes, there are indeed many benefits." Su Man followed his words and said, "Then you should get ready first. We don't know when we will leave. Anyway, we will go back to the village to pick you up when we leave."
"No, I will go to live in town with you guys, so that you won't cheat me like Luo Yun did."
Su Man: “…”
"Okay, whatever you say is fine. We can go to town together."
"Of course we have to go together. You two are both troublesome. If I hadn't been more careful, I don't know where you would have thrown me."
Su Man: “…”Okay, just like you like it, just say whatever you want.
She rubbed her temples.
"Then let's finish the house in the next few days. Anyway, the furniture I asked people to make is almost done, so we can just have them deliver it to us when the time comes."
"You have the final say. Just take me with you wherever you go."
Old man Fan still looked indifferent. He was afraid that Su Man would abandon him like Luo Yun did.
In the next two days, Su Man was in the village watching over the house. Nothing happened in the town either, and it seemed that everything was running well.
But all this calmness did not make Su Man feel relieved. Instead, she felt like there was a kind of tranquility before the storm, and she always felt that the quietness was a bit bad.
After staying in the village for three days, it is time for Su Man to go back to the town for two days, and then she will come with the furniture delivery person.
The furniture she bought this time was all designed by her personally, combining modern elements, and is both beautiful and convenient.
She also left some silver to the village chief, asking him to help find a few people to clean up the place.
As for the workers like Brother Li, after Su Man comes back in two days to check the house and find that there is nothing wrong with it, they will build a house for Hua Niang and Lian Di.
But their houses are ordinary houses, and even if there are two houses, it will take less than ten days to complete.
.........
Old Man Fan really follows Su Man wherever she goes. For example, when they go to town, whether Su Man is visiting stores or going out to buy things, he follows her closely.
Although Su Man felt a little helpless, she didn't say much in the end. She could still understand the old man's behavior.
After staying in the town for two days, Su Man planned to return to the village.
The next morning, a large number of ox carts loaded with furniture went directly to the village.
Not to mention the people in the village, even the people in the town were shocked when they saw ten ox carts loaded with furniture. Who on earth could be so generous as to have so much furniture?
However, everyone felt relieved when they found out that he was the owner of Youran Ju and Xia Qiu Lou. They had all seen how prosperous the business of these stores was in the past two months.
Now that I've made so much money, it's normal to buy some good furniture.
In fact, Su Man only got some beds, sofas, chairs, tables and other things in the living room, as well as a few wardrobes.
After all, time is limited, and some things cannot be completed so quickly.
However, Su Man still asked them to continue with the rest. They could send it directly to the village regardless of whether they were there or not. Before she left, she would also inform the village chief and ask him to help look after the house.
Su Man came out of Xia Qiu Building and was about to get on the carriage when she saw Fu Si coming over with a middle-aged man in his forties.
Seeing this person, Su Man must have been quite confused, because she didn't know what Fu Si meant.
“Madam, the old man will be with us in town from now on, and we can’t leave no one to look after the house, so I found someone. He will live in the old house and help clean the house occasionally.”
Su Man nodded, knowing that since the person was brought by Fu Si, he must be reliable.
"Old Qian has met the Madam."
The middle-aged man is called Lao Qian. On the surface, he looks like a simple and honest uncle, but whether it is his eyes, his steady and powerful steps, or his straight back, it can be seen that he is not an ordinary person.
Su Man suddenly couldn't help laughing. That bastard kept saying that he would keep her out of everything and would no longer care about her.
This did remove her from all matters, but it did not ignore her. Instead, it helped her arrange everything.
Fu Si and the others didn't understand why Su Man was laughing. Just when he was wondering and wanted to ask, Su Man smiled at Lao Qian and said,
"Then I'll trouble you to help me look after the house from now on. Go back first, it's getting late."
Lao Qian responded and started driving the car.
Fu Si, Fu Qi, Su Man and Old Man Fan got into the carriage.
Everyone was shocked when a large pile of furniture was wobbling into the village on a ox cart. Fortunately, they understood everything when they saw Su Man's horse-drawn carriage.
The villagers are now very grateful to Su Man, so they spontaneously want to help.
There was only one person, the widow Wang Hua, who was watching this scene with hatred in her eyes, and the handkerchief in her hand was about to be torn by her.
This damn Su Man is really annoying every time she comes back!
If Su Man hadn't been playing tricks, she would have become the best-living woman in the village with Wang Dahai's support!
But Su Man opened some crappy shops and had to employ those bitches in the village. Now she even feels inferior to those bitches!
She wanted to kill Su Man, but she had no choice. After all, Su Man was like a different person now. If she angered Su Man, she didn't know what the consequences would be.
She gritted her teeth in hatred and finally had to endure it.
.........
The house has already been cleaned thoroughly, and now all we have to do is put the furniture in to make it a complete new home.
Because there were so many people helping, the furniture could be put where it should be and it didn't take much time.
Old Man Fan couldn't help much, so he went to boil water to make tea. It was Su Man who said that it was not right for someone to send furniture from far away without even a cup of tea. At least Su Man felt bad about it.
Old Man Fan poured tea for everyone who helped deliver the furniture. Everyone was flattered. They didn't expect that they could even have tea to drink.
After all, they were paid, and generally, even if some kind-hearted people gave them tea, they would just pour water for them. After all, tea leaves were very precious, and few people were willing to do so.
Even if some wealthy people have money, they will not be given tea to drink, as they will feel that they do not deserve it.
This was the first time that they were served tea as a treat for guests.
After the people who helped deliver the furniture left, the door of the new house was surrounded by villagers, and everyone praised Su Man's new house.
"I've never seen such a beautiful house. Even the houses of the wealthy men in town are not as beautiful as this one."
"Yes, yes, I think so too. This is really the most beautiful house I have ever seen. If I could live in a house like this once in my life, I would really smile in my dreams."
"Don't even think about it. We will never be able to live in such a nice house in this lifetime. But now Xiao Su is slowly making money with us, so there's nothing to be afraid of. Even if we can't afford such a nice house in the future, we can still build a blue brick and tile house, just like Hua Niang and Lian Di."
"Yes, yes, but we have such a nice house in our village, and it's a face to tell others about it."
Everyone was discussing it, and of course there were some envious tones.
But it's useless for them to envy. After all, this is a height that they can never reach in their lifetime. They just feel that having such a good house in the village will make them feel proud when they tell others about it.
However, just when everyone was happy for Su Man's house, an inappropriate voice rang out.
"No matter how nice this house is, it's not yours. Why are you so happy? And if she really wanted you to be happy, she should have prepared a lively house-warming wine party and treated everyone in our village to a good meal. After all, she owns two restaurants."
These words were said by Widow Wang. The more she thought about it, the more hateful she felt. She couldn't help but come over to take a look.
Now when she heard everyone praising Su Man, she couldn't help it.
Everyone looked at her with a strange look in their eyes.
But Widow Wang didn't realize there was anything wrong. She thought that so many people agreed with what she had just said, so she straightened her back and continued speaking.
"Doesn't she have two restaurants? She made so much money and built such a nice house. Shouldn't she treat everyone in our village to a meal? Isn't that Youranju hers? Can't she just call the chef over to cook a meal for us?"
She had been coveting the food at Youranju for a long time, but it was too expensive and she didn't dare to go there. If she could eat it once, she would be able to brag about it when she returned to her parents' home.
The people around her already felt it was a bit outrageous and speechless when she said the first sentence. Now, hearing her matter-of-fact tone, some people couldn't stand it anymore and started talking about her.
"Wang Hua, how can you be so shameless? It's their business if they own a restaurant, why should they come and give you food for free?"
"That's right. How much money can a restaurant make in a day? How much loss will it have if it closes for a day? And they have to invite everyone in the village? I'm afraid it will be a huge loss."
"That's right. This is someone else's new house. If they want to heat it, they can heat it. If they don't want to heat it, they can't heat it. How can you force others to do that?"
"You! You..." Widow Wang obviously didn't expect that the villagers would not follow her plan at all. Instead, they spoke for Su Man, which made her so angry that her face turned red.
"Isn't what I said the truth? She's so rich! What's wrong with treating us to a meal? It's just stingy! If she was so rich, I would definitely treat you all to a meal!"
She roared as if what she said was true.
"What a pity, you're not as rich as me." Su Man's voice came from inside the house.
When she came out just now, she happened to hear what Widow Wang said at the beginning. She originally wanted to walk out, but after hearing what others said, she didn't come out. She just wanted to see how the situation would develop next.
She didn't expect that Widow Wang was so shameless that she could even say such words. She had no choice but to come out.
"You...you..." Wang Hua felt a little guilty when she saw Su Man coming out, but when she thought about how there were so many people here and she hadn't said anything wrong just now, Su Man would definitely not dare to do anything to her, so she immediately got a little bolder.
"I don't have as much money as you! But didn't I just say it? If I had, I would definitely do it!"
"You don't have it. You will never have so much money in your life, so stop daydreaming. It's too stupid and too funny." Su Man didn't show any politeness and directly retorted.
Some people couldn't help laughing, and they also thought Wang Hua was quite funny.
Wang Hua's face turned red, she was very angry. Originally, Wang Dahai was the best-off person in the village, but now it was Su Man who became rich, and she and Wang Dahai became the gossip of the villagers!
"Also, I think what you just said is not impossible to achieve, that is, inviting the villagers to dinner. I really have the ability to do this. However, I can invite everyone in the village to dinner, except your family, because I don't like your family!"
Su Man crossed her arms across her chest, not hiding her disgust for Wang Hua at all.
"Besides, remember what I told you, right? Don't mess with me, or I will make you regret it and pay the price. If you don't believe me, do you want to try it now?"
Although she had a faint smile on her face, she made people feel a little cold, especially Widow Wang. When she saw Su Man's eyes, her back felt a little cold and her face turned pale.
"I...I don't even want to talk to you! If you don't want me to, then don't! Who cares?"
She said this and ran out in a hurry, holding her belly.
Watching her run away, some people who had a grudge against her couldn't help but laugh at her.
Su Man sneered slightly. He was really a clown, jumping in front of others from time to time.
If it weren't for the fact that she had too much on her plate right now, and if Widow Wang wasn't pregnant with a child, she would have really taught Widow Wang a lesson.
Although she really hated Widow Wang, she would not touch her because she had a child in her belly. After all, the child was innocent.
She looked at the people gathered at the door of the house, smiled, and said,
"Everyone, thank you all for your help today. I will definitely treat you to housewarming wine, but not now. After all, the two children and their father are not at home. I plan to treat you to a good meal when they come back in a while."
When everyone heard this, they thought it was normal. After all, the husband and children were not at home, so there was no need to hold a house-warming wine party.
Everyone said it was okay, and that we should wait until the children came back.
Everyone was talking at once, and finally, knowing that Su Man had other things to do, they all went back home.
After everyone left, Su Man rubbed her aching neck and couldn't help but complain,
"Ah... I didn't do anything, why do I feel so tired?"
Old Man Fan looked at her and said, "I'll make some medicine for you later."
Su Man: “…” She just said that extra sentence.
