Traveling back to ancient times to make money and raise children is also free

Chapter 132 Zhang Kai's request. Do I have the potential to be a matchmaker?

The cock crowed at the fifth watch, and the dawn began to rise. The earliest winter lady had already gotten up to prepare breakfast. The sounds of washing pots in the kitchen, the crackling of burning firewood, and the sound of winter lady cutting vegetables intertwined together to form a unique symphony, ringing the quiet morning in the mountain village.

Everyone got up one after another, with the sounds of washing, talking, and walking, and another lively day began!

When I got up, Zhang Kai and the others were already up. They were talking to Xiu Wen and Jiang Chuan about something as they looked at the poured cement floor.

I ignored them and went straight to wash myself. Then I went to the dining hall to see if Granny Dong's breakfast was ready.

Grandma Dong made oil-splashed noodles, cooked porridge, and fried sour cabbage today, which made people's appetites whetted.

I helped to bring breakfast to the table and asked Xiuwen to invite them to come and have breakfast. The breakfast in the mountain village was really not as elaborate as that in the rich families.

I didn't consider whether Jiangchuan and the others were used to it or not. Each of them had a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and they could do whatever they wanted to eat.

There is a lot to do today. The other yards have been almost repaired, and only the backyard left for Xiaobao has not been completed.

But there is still a lot of cement paving work to do. The cement paving outside the house has only been completed in the connected areas, and the other main roads have not been paved yet. The room in Xiaobao's yard has not been paved yet either.

I also want to plant fruit trees in some places, and the water from the back mountain has not been collected yet, so there will be no water to flush the toilet.

Limestone, clay, sand, pebbles, everything had to be brought back. Each of these things took time and manpower.

What's more important is that it takes up too much of my energy.

Zhang Cai had already finished breakfast with his men and went to fetch clay and limestone. The others also performed their duties and were busy.

I ate a bowl of porridge with some pickles and it was very satisfying. I was afraid of Jiangchuan and Uncle Mo, and Uncle Wu was not used to it. I didn't expect that the three of them would do the same as me, take a bowl, fill it, grab chopsticks and start eating.

I ate a full bowl, washed the dishes, and prepared to mix cement. Xiuwen also finished eating, washed the dishes, and followed me.

Uncle Mo and Uncle Wu had just recovered and were a little tired, so they went back to their room to rest.

Zhang Kai, Jiang Chuan, and Xiu Wen saw me start to work and started to help.

Zhang Kai was a little absent-minded today. He didn't even say he was going back. When he saw us starting to work, he started to help.

But I got distracted while doing it.

Zhang Kai was helping me pack the clay here, and he and Xiu Wen were packing the crushed limestone over there. Xiu Wen held a bag and waited for him to shovel the limestone into it, but several times, while Xiu Wen was holding the bag and waiting for him to put the things in, he would start to daydream while doing it.

This happened several times. Xiu Wen frowned, feeling somewhat helpless. He wanted to remind him, but he didn't know what he was thinking, so he didn't say anything.

But I have to do it, these materials are not good when they come to me, I have to make a formula for these materials, and the required amount needs to be more precise. This will affect the proportion of my cement.

Moreover, Zhang Kai's mental state today is obviously not suitable for doing anything.

"Zhang Kai, are you worried about something today? Why don't you go back to the farm first! Niuniu, she must be waiting for you and must be getting anxious." He could no longer bear it and directly drove the man away!

"When Zhang Kai heard what I said, he simply put down his shovel and said, "Boss, Zhang Kai has something that he wants to ask you for help with."

I rolled my eyes at Zhang Kai. "Why didn't you say so earlier? You've been sitting there with a lot on your mind the whole morning."

"Boss is right. I am now the Prime Minister."

"Well, do you want to say it here or find another place?" I put the limestone in my hand on the ground and asked Zhang Kai.

Wang Kai felt a little embarrassed. "How about... Boss, let's find a place!"

Seeing Zhang Kai's embarrassed face, I walked a little further to the side. Zhang Kai followed me.

"Go ahead and say it. No one here can hear you." I looked around and saw that I was already far away from the crowd.

"Boss, I want you to help me find a matchmaker. I like Madam Tian and want to marry her. I would like to ask you to help me mediate."

This is a great thing. I didn’t expect that someone would ask me to be a matchmaker for him. It seems that I have the potential to be a matchmaker.

I asked Zhang Kai curiously, "Have you told Madam Tian about this? Did she know that you had this idea?"

Zhang Kai lowered his head and looked at his toes. At this moment, the man in his 30s was as shy and embarrassed as a young boy.

"Boss, I haven't told Madam Tian yet. Aren't I afraid she will refuse? So I want you to ask her for me."

"Did you come back just for this matter?"

"That's part of it. I also want to come back and see Niuniu."

"Okay, then when do you want me to ask Madam Tian?"

"I don't know, Boss, when are you free? I'm available anytime." Zhang Kai was overjoyed to see that I agreed. Even his tone of voice became lighter. He said carefully, "It's just that I can't be away from the city for too long. I want to go with Xiu Wen this time. Xiu Wen said he can only come back for one day and leave tomorrow. Boss, can you go with me to ask today?"

Come to think of it, when I came back, I probably just wanted to get things done as soon as possible.

"Okay, I'll go ask you today. Let's go now." I didn't know Xiuwen said she was leaving tomorrow. Since Zhang Kai said so, he must be telling the truth.

Xiuwen and Jiangchuan were still waiting for us at the ingredient preparation area.

When I told them that I had something to do at the farm, Jiangchuan immediately expressed his interest in going too.

Then, along with Jiang Qi, who was driving the carriage, the five of them got on the carriage and sped towards the farm.
