The Sickly General’s Wife With A Spatial Ability Is Loved By All

173 Feeling of the Zhang Family

Su Binglan tried her best to simplify her explanation so her uncle could understand her more easily.

“For example, if my father and I want to build a house but are too busy, we can pay you to build it for us. We can also tell you our requirements, and you can arrange for your team to build the house for us.

“As for the construction money, you will manage how much you will pay your team. You are the team leader, after all. If that’s the case, you don’t have to hire people to care for the meals.”

She believed in Su Zhengde’s ability to organize. Moreover, he was her grandfather’s son, so everyone would trust him if he organized things.

The more Su Zhengde listened, the brighter his eyes became. He knew his niece had an excellent idea. He experienced many things when he worked as a builder to help others build houses.

He quickly understood what his niece had said. “So, it’s similar to a boss paying his workers. I’ll oversee the construction of the house and be in charge of the entire process. As for my team, I would trust them to construct the building according to the blueprints and requirements.”

Su Binglan nodded. “Yes, that’s it, Uncle Zhengde.”

Su Zhengde stood up. He was so excited that he habitually wanted to pat his niece’s shoulder. However, he withdrew his hand when he thought of how his niece was the Su family’s only girl.

“Binglan, I genuinely believe you’re the family’s lucky star. I can take on many more clients with this arrangement. I can also recruit some villagers so they can earn more money, and it won’t affect my harvesting too much.” Su Zhengde knew the benefits of his niece’s idea.

The villagers would be grateful to him no matter who he chose to form his team. He could also make and sell more furniture if more houses appeared so his family’s conditions would improve. He also understood there were more advantages to this. That was why he was so excited.

Su Binglan was also delighted she could help her uncle because his family had helped hers in the past. It was great that she could help her uncle by offering him this idea.

She said, “I told you this because I know you have the skills and capabilities to do it, Uncle Zhengde.”

Su Zhengde said thoughtfully, “I will remember your kindness, Binglan.”

Su Binglan replied, “You’re being too polite, Uncle Zhengde. We’re family, so you don’t need to say such things.”

Su Zhengde smiled. “Okay, I won’t. If you need help with anything down the line, please let me know so I can help.”

…

When Su Binglan and her father left, Madam Zhou said, “I envy Qiuhua for having Binglan. Your niece is the family’s lucky star, and she’s so caring. If only she were ours.”

Su Zhengde said, “You can treat her as your own since you’re married to me.”

Madam Zhou smiled when she thought about what her husband said. “You’re right. Still, it seems you can earn plenty of money from the house-building project Binglan mentioned.”

Su Zhengde looked at Zhou Shi and smiled. “You understood her explanation too, huh?”

Zhou Shu had previously helped with her family’s business, so she had witnessed and experienced many things. Later, Zhou Shi and her parents settled down when a disaster happened, and Zhou Shi married into the Su family soon after.

“Of course, I understood her. If you can take on more jobs in the future, more villagers can ask for your help. Then we can rent out bigger houses with furniture and earn money from whoever needs them. Also, I thought of saving money so we can open a furniture shop in the future.”

It turned out that Zhou Shi had a business idea in mind.

…

It was a little late when Su Binglan and her father left Su Zhengde’s house. However, Su Binglan did not go to her parent’s house but to her own. When she reached the door, she realized it was open, and the candles were still lit.

When she arrived, she felt warmer because that was her home, and someone was worriedly waiting for her to return. Su Binglan had a strange feeling in her heart when she entered the yard and locked the door.

After entering the house, she saw her husband reading a book in front of the desk. Luo Jin’an stood up and looked at his wife when he heard her enter. He said gently, “You’re finally home!”

These three simple words left a warm and fuzzy feeling in Su Binglan’s heart. The two were like a real couple now. She said softly, “Yes, I’m home. It’s already so late. Why aren’t you asleep?”

Su Binglan looked at her husband expectantly as she spoke, probably wondering if he was waiting for her.

However, Luo Jin’an said clearly, “I was just reading.”

“Oh,” Su Binglan replied somewhat disappointedly.

“Should we get some rest?” Luo Jin’an asked.

“Okay.” Su Binglan nodded as the two retired to their respective rooms to sleep.

…

After breakfast the following morning, Su Binglan and the others prepared to take the oxcart to town as Su Fengmao hurried to his brother’s house. Su Binglan knew her father was going to her uncle’s house to discuss the bricks.

Since Su Binglan had bought a small donkey to help turn the stone mill, Shen Qiuhua could do other things while her husband busied himself with errands, etcetera.

Still, Su Binglan felt sad when she saw her father hurriedly limping toward his brother’s house. Nonetheless, she was going to visit the blacksmith because eight days had passed since she had ordered her items. Then she could treat her father’s foot.

Luo Jin’an, Su Xuexuan, and Su Xuehai went to the academy, while Su Binglan went to Binglan’s Desserts and Su’s Tofu.

She was quick when making desserts, and with the addition of spiritual spring water, she made a lot in the morning so she could be available in the afternoon. She only needed to look after the shop now.

Lin Zheng and his two friends also helped during the weekdays, so their boss could go and handle other things.

As for Su Wenzhe and his wife, the couple worked from morning to night. Immediately after they opened the shop doors, people rushed in to buy their Chinese hamburgers and herbal eggs.

The customers quickly ate their Chinese hamburgers and herbal eggs so they could have a full breakfast, while others only went there to buy tofu.

Liu Yinyin would be busy in the mornings while her husband made plenty of sesame buns, Chinese hamburgers, noodles, and haggis soup in the backyard kitchen.

Their business was booming, especially around noon, as many lined up to buy their sesame buns and haggis soup. Meanwhile, people filled the chairs under the shed outside the tofu shop and discussed several topics.

“Have you heard? Hundred Herb Hospital sent some medicinal herbs to the capital, but someone stole them as soon as the herbs arrived.”

“Yeah, I heard about that. There were a lot of expensive herbs too.”

“The most horrifying thing is that we don’t know if the Hundred Herb Hospital staff survived the robbery. Some say bandits did it, while others said it was the soldiers who fought in the war.”

“Hundred Herb Hospital is such a renowned medical center, yet someone dared to do that.”

“It’s chaotic out there, so no one cares how renowned they are. The robbers can make plenty of money with those stolen medicinal herbs.”

…

Su Binglan had just returned from delivering lunch to the academy when she heard the customers talking. Her expression changed because her second brother, Su Wenxiu, was a delivery person for Hundred Herbs Hospital.
