Manager Liu, did you use up that jar of chili powder last time?" Niu Dali smiled honestly.
"You don't know how popular the business has been since our restaurant used your chili powder. That can't be enough for that can of chili powder!"
Liu Fugui looked sighing, then rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "Brother, do you still have that chili powder in your house? I will pay twice the price!"
"What do you want to do? I have two cans at home. Manager Liu, if you want it, I will give you one!" Niu Dali said honestly.
"How can this be done? Friendship is friendship, business is business!" Liu Fugui's little eyes narrowed and he waved his hand quickly.
They didn't say much about this matter. Li Xianglan gave Liu Fugui a can of chili powder. Liu Fugui hurriedly held the chili powder and said goodbye to Niu Dali and his family.
Before leaving, I didn't forget to give Da Ya, Er Ya and Bier a happy money.
Leng Qiuniang had met Zhou Huang several times and felt that Zhou Huang had no children and could not help but feel it. When Li Xianglan visited Zhou Huang, she would also visit the old man.
This time, with Li Xianglan's invitation, she and Bier also came to Zhou's house.
Carpenter Zhou had been helping people build the house some time ago until he came back a few days ago. He knew that Niu Dali's family might come here like last year, and he and Zhou Huangshi were preparing the dishes they had for lunch in the kitchen early.
"Grandpa Zhou, Grandma Zhou, we are here!"
Daya and Erya shouted outside the door.
"Here's here!"
Carpenter Zhou and Huang, Zhou hurried out of the kitchen, and their old faces seemed extremely excited.
"Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou, I'm here to pay New Year's greetings too."
Leng Qiuniang made a New Year greeting gesture to congratulate her, and Bier also greeted Carpenter Zhou and Huang, who was also in charge of New Year greetings.
"It's better to be lively, it's better to be lively!" Carpenter Zhou and Huang, Zhou, looked kind.
At noon, Zhou Huang prepared a lot of dishes, including chicken and fish, and one soup and seven dishes. Niu Dali could see that these dishes were specially prepared. He couldn't help but look at the two old men with joy on their faces, and sighed in his heart.
Sometimes people compare themselves with others and they will be more dead. If Niu Laogen had half of Carpenter Zhou's, they would forget it and celebrate the New Year well, so don't worry about those bad things.
"Godfather, who are you working for these days? Why have you been working for so long and haven't done it yet?" Li Xianglan said curiously.
"The ordinary house has been built long ago, but it is not an ordinary family. It has large places and many places to be repaired!" Carpenter Zhou shook his head. He didn't want to do it, but it was hard for him to refuse the family to come and invite him.
"Is that place big?" Erya said with her big eyes,
"Well, it's very big, bigger than our village!" Zhou Carpenter smiled.
Da Ya and Er Ya both opened their mouths wide, Li Xianglan, Leng Qiuniang and Bier seemed very calm.
"Usually, mansions like this will not be built easily, let alone all of them?" Leng Qiuniang said with a frown.
"You are right. Generally, the materials used to build mansions are excellent. Not to mention decades, even if it is left for hundreds of years, there will be no problem!" Zhou Carpenter nodded and smiled, "But the mansion of this family almost collapsed last year!"
"I think someone must cut corners!" Erya said as a little detective.
"Is that true?" Daya said curiously.
"It's not that someone cuts corners, but that someone has shocked them!" Carpenter Zhou shook his head.
Collapse?
Niu Dali felt a little sad. Could it be that the place where Carpenter Zhou works is Zhentian Martial Arts Hall?
Leng Qiuniang couldn't help but look at him, afraid that she would think of it too.
"Why did people shake the house?" Erya scratched her little head.
"Grandpa also heard that he was a knight with great martial arts to save his beloved."
Afterwards, Carpenter Zhou told a story about a hero saving beauty, and Da Ya and Er Ya's eyes were lit.
Niu Dali was speechless.
Is this a good thing to make up?
What kind of knight and beloved are childhood sweethearts, but unfortunately they were seized by bullies. After the heroic knight learned about it, he rescued his beloved by gunfire under the siege of tens of thousands of people.
There are also various plots of twists and turns, love, hate, and ups and downs, which makes people sweat.
Leng Qiuniang lowered her eyes, her cheeks were slightly hot, and Li Xianglan frowned slightly, "Godfather, the place you built was the Zhentian Martial Arts Hall, right?"
"So you have heard this story too?" Zhou Carpenter looked at her and said.
Li Xianglan smiled bitterly, and couldn't help but look at Brother Dali and Qiuniang. If it weren't for Brother Dali who saved people, she would have thought that the story was true.
"Uncle Zhou, how long will the Zhentian Martial Arts Hall be built?" Niu Dali smiled honestly. It was because he was honest, otherwise it would be so embarrassing.
"It will be almost March and April. The knight almost collapsed the entire martial arts hall. It is more complicated to build it!" said Zhou Carpenter.
"Then are they good to you?" Niu Dali coughed dryly.
"Don't worry about me. Zhentian Martial Arts Hall is famous in the city, but now they have a request to me, so how dare they treat me?" Zhou Carpenter smiled confidently.
Niu Dali naturally knew where Carpenter Zhou’s confidence came from. Not to mention that there are many gentry and landlords in Kaiyuan County, the houses of many gentry and landlords were written by Carpenter Zhou. Just say that the construction of Kaiyuan City’s yamen is also due to Carpenter Zhou’s contribution. With this, Carpenter Zhou has the ability and confidence.
On the first day of the third day of the Chinese New Year, Niu Dali packed up the ox cart. Bier carried an old quilt in the ox cart. After it was ready, their family set out to visit her grandparents.
It’s a bit cold in the morning, especially when you’re on the road, when the cold wind blows on your face, it will look biting cold, but it doesn’t feel cold in the ox cart covered with old quilts.
"Brother Dali, are you cold?"
Li Xianglan lifted the curtain and looked at Niu Dali in single clothes, looking worried.
"It's okay, it's not cold at all!"
Niu Dali turned around, grinned and smiled honestly.
Along the way, he quickly arrived at Xishi Village in the cold wind. He originally thought that Xishi Village would be as lively as other villages, but he found that Xishi Village was very quiet and he didn't even see the children.
This is not in line with common sense. Adults may be too busy and tired during the New Year and rarely come out, but children are very yearning for the New Year. When the New Year comes, friends will gather together happily to chase and fight.
"Aren't you the grandson of the Xia family?"
At this time, an old woman in her fifties came out of the yard and saw Niu Dali's ox cart and shouted.
"It's me, I'm paying New Year's greetings to my grandparents!"
Niu Dali smiled politely and honestly.
"You'd better go to your grandfather's house to take a look." The old woman shook her head and said.
"What happened to my grandfather's house?" Niu Dali's face slightly sank.
"I'm not very clear. Your aunt's mother-in-law brought the yamen runners this morning and said she wanted to arrest people. But grandson of the Xia family, don't worry, the village chief and many people have passed by, and even my son and daughter-in-law have passed by. I think you'd better go over and take a look. I'm old and can't get that far!"
The old woman sighed. The Xia family had just improved, but she was thinking about her daughter's ex-in-law's family. What's the matter?
"Thank you aunt!"
