C45 Some People Have a Crush

"Mom, I'll say it one last time, my wife can only be Luo Mannmann. I don't want others, and there's also my business, so please don't worry about it."

Xiao Yiming sighed and went to work in the front yard. He definitely couldn't touch the banknotes his wife left him. He had to think of a way to earn more money so that he could raise enough money to find his wife.

Qiu Family

Auntie Qiu and Qiu Ju's mother were embroidering flowers in the room. The two of them had a casual chat, but Auntie Qiu appeared to be in a rather absent-minded mood. Her pair of tiny eyes kept peeking towards the door.

"Mother, why do you keep looking at the door? Are you waiting for someone? " Qiu Ju noticed the restless expression in Auntie Qiu's eyes and asked in puzzlement.

"Nothing." The corner of Auntie Qiu's mouth twitched, concealing that she would see Madame Li knocking on her door. Her elated face betrayed her thoughts.

She immediately opened the door to welcome him and asked, "Madame Li, how is it? How is the favor I've asked of you?"

Auntie Qiu was stuffing coins into her pocket as she spoke. "Don't, Aunt Xiao, you're too polite. I can't take it."

"What's wrong? From your tone, it doesn't sound like a good idea." Auntie Qiu's heart clenched. She couldn't go on and on.

"Auntie Qiu, don't mention it. That Xiao Yiming has a really bad temper. I didn't even say anything before I was chased out of the room by a broom.

Xiao Family is highly sought after, and the matchmakers of other families have also been chased out. It's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that there's nothing we can do. " Madame Li's face was filled with tears. She had never seen such a troublesome person before.

"About that, think of a way. The happiness of my daughter depends entirely on you …" Auntie Qiu hadn't finished.

Qiu Ju could guess the gist of it and immediately pulled on her sleeve, yelling: "Oh god, Mother, you actually asked the matchmaker to matchmaking for your daughter. You, you, you, how can your daughter say anything about you?

"Stupid child, what are you talking about? Mom, isn't it all for your sake? Your heart is hanging on Xiao Yiming, isn't that just helping you?"

Auntie Qiu's tiny eyes darted around as if she was calculating something.

"But didn't you not agree before? I really submit to you, causing such a ruckus with Xiao Family. You even sent a warm face to someone else's cold butt …"

Qiu Ju speechlessly rolled her eyes and sat back on her chair. She picked up the embroidery needle and continued to work on it.

These words caused Madame Li's face to turn green. Being hot faced against a cold butt meant that she was slightly angry. She then saw Auntie Qiu hurriedly trying to curry favor with her, "About that, Madame Li, sorry to trouble you. This is the payment for your hard work, I can't let you come here for nothing."

He shoved a dozen coins into her pocket.

Only then did Madame Li's expression lighten a little. "Alright, Auntie Qiu, you guys go ahead and busy yourselves. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving first."

"Sigh, take care." After Auntie Qiu's gaze had been sent off, she turned around to see Qiu Ju starting to criticize her. "Mother, you don't have to worry about me. Don't worry about me, otherwise, your daughter will be angry."

"Fine, fine, fine. Our daughter has her own ideas. Mother, you don't have to meddle in other people's business, okay?"

Auntie Qiu quickly agreed. After hearing that there was still several hundred silver taels in Xiao Family left behind by Luo Mannmann, once this daughter-in-law leaves, whoever marries into Xiao Family would be able to enjoy life already. Furthermore, this daughter likes Xiao Yiming so much.

Auntie Qiu chuckled as she looked at her daughter's pretty face. Her smile was full of calculation.

"..."

Wu Town

Mo Residence began to go through great efforts to rebuild the mansion. Under the scorching sun, a dozen or so workers were tearing down the walls, busying themselves. Everything was going according to Luo Mannmann and the foreman's plan.

"Miss Luo, look at this blueprint, isn't it right? This is the main building, right?" The foreman politely asked Luo Mannmann, who was watching by the side.

The workers who were working were barefoot and sweating. Maidservant was too embarrassed to look at them, but she didn't expect nothing unusual from Luo Mannmann's calm expression.

"Yes, that's right. The shape of this wall barrier is similar to what was drawn on the map."

The butler walked over, and after taking in the two people's serious expressions, he said:

"Hmph …" "I don't know where Naughty girl came from, but she was bold and shameless. She dealt with these workers every day, so she wasn't embarrassed at all. Her skin was as thick as a city wall."

The workers saw that the butler had arrived. They paused for a moment and then respectfully said, "Hello, butler …"

"En," the butler gave a light snort, straightened his back, and reprimanded him, "All of you have to move quickly. Time is of the essence, we have to finish this in the shortest possible time."

"It's the butler. The workers have been working very hard and I believe they will finish it within expectations." The foreman nodded and said.

The butler snorted lightly and walked away with his head held high.

The butler didn't seem to like Miss Luo too much, but the workers all had a high opinion of her.

This was because not only did she have a unique insight into architecture, she did not put on airs and often worked alongside them without fear of filth or hardship.

Seeing that Luo Mannmann was still around, the foreman hurried over to snatch the work from her and said, "Miss Luo, let us men handle this heavy work. How could a girl like you have so much strength?"

Luo Mannmann saw that she did not have any work to do. The sun was high in the sky and the workers had a cloth around their necks to wipe the sweat off their foreheads from time to time.

"How about this, we've all been tired for the whole day, so we must be tired and thirsty. I'll go get some snacks and some water."

When the workers heard this, they all sent grateful looks and worked even harder.

Luo Mannmann quickly brought several large plates of snacks and a large kettle and bowls over, telling the workers to sit down and rest for a while.

The workers were satisfied with their snacks and water.

"Miss Luo's really not bad. She's diligent, capable, and smart. I wonder who will be able to marry her in the future. That's great fortune for me."

A young man was biting on a piece of cake and was staring unblinkingly at Luo Mannmann who was busy pouring water for the workers not far away. A silly smile was still hanging on his face.

When the foreman at the side saw his infatuated expression, he knew that this kid's heart was moved. He could not help but ridicule:

"Oh, Tang Er, look at how excited you are. You must have taken a fancy to that girl. If you like her, go ahead and say it. We'll all support you."

The group of people started laughing, and the young man scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Don't spout nonsense, don't ruin the girl's reputation. I would like to say, but my family is poor, how could they be compatible with the girl? I don't want her to suffer."

"Oh, now my heart is in pain." The foreman suddenly opened his mouth, causing Tang Er to choke on his snacks. Cough, cough, he hastily drank some water to ease his anger.

"Are you a little better? Such a big person can choke on food, that's really something." The foreman patted him on the back to make him feel better.

"Big Brother Tang, are you choking on something? I still have some tea here. Come and drink some more. Smooth your throat." Luo Mannmann passed a bowl of water to him. This dessert was a little dry, and if one were to eat it anxiously, it would be easy for one to choke on it.

Tang Er instantly felt that it was worth it even if he choked. Was it because Luo Mannmann seemed to care about him a lot? He chuckled and a suspicious blush appeared on his face.

When Luo Mannmann had left, the foreman nudged Tang Er and joked, "Still looking? "I've already left."

The two of them were joking, and didn't notice the dark expression of a person not far away. This person was from Nanshan Village, and his name was Wang Daogu. He often worked in the towns to supplement his family.

Although the place where he stood was a bit far from Tang Er, how could he not notice the passionate gaze in someone's eyes?

Xiao Yiming, it's a pity that you, a wife who has been plagued by love all over the world, is being cared for by other men. If you don't hurry up, your wife will marry someone else.

He curled his lip and looked at Tang Er, and decided to shout loudly: "Are you still thinking about that girl? Don't you see that Miss Luo doesn't take you seriously at all? "

Wang Daogu wanted to choke off someone's thoughts. Seeing that the two were still talking, he couldn't help but take a cup of tea and pour some cold water on them.

Tang Er was still in high spirits. He was splashed with cold water and was immediately annoyed.

"What did you say?" I just like Miss Luo. What does that have to do with you? " Tang Er said as he stared at him. Could it be that this middle-aged man didn't rush out in the middle of the road to snatch him away?

"Young man, don't think too much. Miss Luo has a husband."

"What? This is impossible." Tang Er widened his eyes in disbelief.

How could a man with a husband let Miss Luo show her face outside? Perhaps Wang Daogu meant that Miss Luo had been married before, but he wouldn't mind.

"You're not saying that Miss Luo has married someone, right? I don't mind. I just like her, so I'm willing to wait." Tang Er said with a sweet expression.

Wang Daogu rolled his eyes speechlessly, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Silly boy, are you still not awake? "Don't wait for our husband to come knocking on our door. There is not enough time to pick up the broken heart."

After saying that, he sighed and walked away.

Luo Mannmann, who was not far away from Tang Er, stiffened when she heard this. She looked at Tang Er and also started to feel awkward.

Had she been too busy recently? No wonder Tang Er would bashfully and foolishly smile at her every time he saw her. It was because he had feelings for her.

Tang Er was not bad. He was 17 or 18 years old, able to withstand hardships and had a simple and honest smile. Marrying such a young man might be a good idea.

However, Luo Mannmann did not feel anything from him, unlike the feeling of blushing and heartbeats when faced with Xiao Yiming. Although she had left the Xiao Family, she would not casually find a man to live with.

Luo Mannmann saw that the workers were getting busy again and shook her head. She had really thought too much into it.

Wang Daogu immediately told Xiao Yiming that Luo Mannmann worked in Wu Town and Mo Residence. She treated Xiao Yiming, who had been yearning and tormenting these past few days, as if they had met with rain during a drought.

In fact, the next morning, Xiao Yiming hurriedly wrapped up Old Uncle Zhang's oxcart and rushed towards Wu Town.

When Xiao Yiming reached Wu Town Avenue, he stuffed a few copper coins in to pay Old Uncle Zhang's fare. Then, he hurriedly walked over to the Mo Residence mentioned by Wang Daogu.
