The Tempting Educated Youth Married to a Rough Man-Chapter 178 - 174: Cuihua~ Bring on the Sauerkraut~~
Mrs. Xiao suddenly jumped up, "Do I need you to teach me how to handle things? What do you mean I’m not good to the Second? It’s obvious he’s petty and keeps everything bottled up, always nitpicking.
And besides, our family business isn’t for you, an outsider, to meddle in! Pfft! Wang Laidi, clean your own rear before you talk about others!"
Mrs. Xiao’s fighting spirit never waned.
If it weren’t for encountering her nemesis, Mrs. Xiao Sr., she might have been able to stay rampant for a while longer.
Wang Laidi was scolded until her face turned bright red, "Pfft, as if anyone wants to meddle in your family’s crappy affairs."
Unable to win in words or insults, Wang Laidi left in discontent.
But before she left, she didn’t forget to deal a blow to Mrs. Xiao Sr.
"No matter how capable your third son-in-law is, he still doesn’t live in a blue-brick big-tiled house in the county city, do you know what kind of house Xiao the Second and his family are living in?
A blue-brick big-tiled house! Ha!"
Wang Laidi turned her head and ran, afraid of hearing something she didn’t want to from Mrs. Xiao Sr. again.
Instead, it was Mrs. Xiao Sr. who was left stunned after Wang Laidi left.
She had also heard that her second son, whom she never liked, was going to build a house.
But she didn’t hear much clearly.
Never expected it would be a blue-brick big-tiled house.
Could it be that this family is really more promising than imagined?
The uproar at the Xiao Family was something Mrs. Xiao knew nothing about, and even if she did, she wouldn’t take it to heart.
Keepsake poop in heart, and it really stinks.
After a little detour in the team, Mrs. Xiao had already made up her mind on the location.
The team leader couldn’t believe it, "Are you sure? This is at the foot of the mountain."
He was really desperate, was it true that birds of a feather really do flock together?
Wen Ran chose such a lousy place, and now the Xiao Family...
"Hey, this place is great, spacious, we’ll make the courtyard walls big."
Team leader: "... Pay up."
A homestead isn’t some random thing to mess with.
Mrs. Xiao waved her hand, "Fine, we’ll pay."
They’re already building a blue-brick big-tiled house, are they going to be short of a few bucks for a homestead?
They, the elderly couple, had scrimped and saved most of their lives, raising several children wasn’t easy, and after getting back from Wen Ran’s place, couldn’t sleep with the wind blowing.
Simply calculated the money they’ve saved over the years.
Building a blue-brick big-tiled house is very hard.
It’d be good to build half of it.
But...
Who says her son isn’t successful!
The team leader tried persuading them a couple of times, seeing the family happily preparing the door’s positioning and room layout, he was completely speechless.
Well, well, he was indeed a cat meddling in the mouse’s business.
Ranting here, in through one ear and out the other.
But, hehehe...
Why so happy inside!
Well, that’s good! They’re doing well, and it’s like a huge stone has been lifted from the team leader’s heart as well.

Xiao Chenye is obviously a man of action; he chose the site that day and had Mr. Xiao and the team leader gather people the next day to start preparing to lay the foundation.
Spring plowing is important, but isn’t it not the time for spring plowing now?
A brief interval is enough to build the house.
As long as there are enough people, the duration can be infinitely shortened.
And Xiao Chenye...
"Uncle!" He shouted while riding his bike, "I’m taking Ranran! Building the house, need blue bricks, isn’t it pressing?!
Take a leave! Taking leave!"
The team leader rushed out like a whirlwind, only to see the small figure of Wen Ran waving her hand.
"Xiao Chenye! You brat! You’re hauling bricks, what’s that little scamp Wen Ran going for?!"
Seeing them go further away, the team leader shouted, almost tearing his throat.
"So lazy from the get-go, you leave her here, you... ugh~"
Overexcited, the team leader made himself retch.
The team leader’s wife: "..."
She clicked her tongue, shook her head, truly couldn’t bear to watch her man’s foolishness.

Wen Ran sat on the bicycle, enjoying the breeze and the freedom, feeling like a bird out of its cage.
She had just opened her mouth to laugh, when suddenly a big tail swept into her mouth.
"Ugh~"
Wen Ran, quick on her feet, grabbed Songzhu’s chubby belly.
She was incredulous, "When did you tag along?"
Songzhu: "?"
Its bean-sized eyes were moist, chewing pine nuts, looking innocent.
Songzhu: (munch munch munch) What is this biped talking about? We little squirrels (munch munch munch) can’t understand a word, huh?
Xiao Chenye turned to see Songzhu and chuckled, "No worries, if it tags along, it tags along, doesn’t take much space either."
Wen Ran, unable to hold back, maliciously snatched the pine nut from Songzhu’s hands and promptly placed it on top of Xiao Chenye’s head.
She kindly reminded him, "Hold on tight, if it falls, it’ll become a pine pancake."
Songzhu, with its bead-sized eyes full of terror, stretched out a small paw and grabbed onto Xiao Chenye’s hair in a flash.
Xiao Chenye: "..."
Hiss~
His scalp tightened.
The two humans and one beast made their way to the neighboring commune just like that.
Yes.
To the neighboring commune.
Wajiao Commune.
Xiao Chenye’s brother lives in the Cuihua Team under Wajiao Commune.
Cuihua Team is famous for two things.
One is their pickled cabbage, known for its delicious taste.
The pickled cabbage is crispy and refreshing, and any girl married off from this area would receive thumbs up all around.
The supply and marketing cooperative often collects pickled cabbage from here, and even buyers from major factories visit every now and then.
Of course, the other is the fired blue bricks and tiles.
For this reason, Cuihua Team, holding two economic lifelines, is quite wealthy.
While the main transport in the Silly Deer Team is still ox carts, they have already been driving tractors.
After hearing Xiao Chenye’s introduction to Cuihua Team, Wen Ran couldn’t stop smiling.
Oh my, really bursting with laughter.
Never in this lifetime could she forget that line.
Cuihua~ bring the pickles~~
Now it’s perfect; Cuihua and pickles have really come together.
Xiao Chenye pedaled for two straight hours, his eyes dazed towards the end, losing any shred of speed ambition.
Indeed.
No man, no matter how capable, can pedal for two hours straight.
Even the great ox doesn’t work like that.
"Alright," Wen Ran sat on the back seat, patting his shoulder, "Let’s stop and take a break."
"I’m not tired!" Xiao Chenye nonchalantly, "It’s only been so long?"
"Oh, please," Wen Ran laughed, "We gotta take the road of sustainable development, understand?
You stop first, even if you’re not tired, my backside can’t take it anymore."
Even with the cushioning effect of cotton padding, bouncing around for two hours made her feel like her backside had a small taste of death. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Oh the agony, her dear backside!
