The store.

All the people who came to work in the village arrived and stood at the door. One of Mr. Zhang's men also came with the key in his hand, and his face was a little bad.

When Mr. Zhang left yesterday, he handed over the business in the shop to him and let him stare at it. Unexpectedly, this situation happened today.

See Xia Xi come in a hurry, meet up, "Xia Niang Zi."

Xia Xi came in a hurry and walked very fast, with sweat on her forehead, "what's the matter?"

He shook his head. "I don't know. At first, I thought they were late, but I didn't expect that when it was this time, I would let people call you."

The decoration is just half finished. Without these people, the rest can't be carried out.

"Do you know where they live?"

Xia Xi asked.

His subordinates shook their heads. Although he came with Mr. Zhang several times, he didn't know where these people lived.

Xia Xi pursed her lips.

Five craftsmen will not come at once. There must be something wrong.

The man suggested, "otherwise, let's go to the street and find a few people temporarily."

Can only be so, Xia Xi nodded, "you take me over."

There is a special street in the county, where people from all villages come out to look for jobs. In addition to those who work hard, there are carpenters and masons.

When they came to the street, the people who were waiting for work immediately widened their eyes. The weather was getting colder and colder, and there were almost no houses to build and repair. These people couldn't wait for a job for several days. Today, someone came. It seemed that they were in a hurry. Maybe there would be work to do.

"Which of you is a carpenter?"

The hand raised a voice to shout.

Hula, there were more than ten people around, all holding the tools in their hands, shouting, "I, I, I..."

"Back up, back up..."

His hands waved impatiently.

The crowd did not dare to step forward again, but retreated slightly.

"Lady Xia, look..."

Xia Xi's eyes flashed over these people one by one and raised her voice to ask, "who can see the drawings?"

Craftsmen, look at me and I'll look at you. Most of them are ancestral crafts, such as making furniture. They have never seen the drawings. Only two people raised their hands, but the voice was weak, and some of them were weak. "We'll see."

Xia Xi fixed her eyes on them and looked at them, "OK, just the two of you. After a while, she will follow me. Fifty Wen a day, plus a lunch."

Coax!

When she said this, the craftsmen fried the pot and paid 50 Wen a day, which was never before. They usually calculated by piece. How much did they make a piece? Unless they worked day and night, otherwise, they didn't have so much money a day.

No matter what the crowd was like, his men asked in a loud voice, "is there a bricklayer?"

With the carpenters' precedent, no matter whether they will read the drawings or not, they all raised their hands, "yes, yes, yes..."

There were too many people, and their eardrums hurt. Their attitude was not good. "I'll tell you, we're going to have a trial. If someone doesn't do well at that time, don't blame me for being impolite."

As soon as they heard this, someone immediately beat the drum and silently stepped back a few steps. This person is not easy to be provoked at first sight. Don't be beaten again if you can't earn money at that time. It's not worth the loss.

Finally, there are still two people left, Xia Xi didn't ask, directly let his people back to the store, she went back to the market.

"Sister in law, are you ok?"

Look at her face, Lan'er asked quietly.

"Nothing."

Xia Xi answers, and starts to fish.

After Qing'er came, she was so angry that she went to the market to find Xia Xi, "elder sister, why did those craftsmen quit at the same time? Is there someone secretly targeting US?"

Xia Xi mouth slightly hook, "yes."

Qing'er stamped her feet angrily, "who?"

"Your good brother-in-law."

……

The craftsmen they got were OK. After one day, they did a good job. They agreed to come to work the next day and let them come on time tomorrow.

Everyone leaves, Xia Xi leads Qi'er and Hu Zi back to Zhang Da's mother's home.

Aunt Zhang had already prepared the meal and was waiting. She heard the footsteps coming to the door and lifting the curtain, "come in, warm up, let's have dinner right away."

It's warm in the room with charcoal pots.

Three people into the room, Xia Xi way, "Auntie, I'll do it after dinner, you don't too tired."

Aunt Zhang is not smiling.

……

The next day, several craftsmen didn't come on time. They came directly to tell Xia Xi the news.

Xia Xi quickly cooked a pot of boiled fish, and his men came to the street again.

There are still a lot of people, but today no one has come forward to ask. What's more, they are still hiding.

Xia Xi frowns, eyes in the crowd re search, quickly find a carpenter hiding behind the crowd, strode past, standing in front of him.

Sensing their approach, the carpenter seemed to shrink for a while. Before they spoke, he arched his hands to them and begged for mercy. "Madam, there are old people and young people under me. Don't embarrass me any more. It's my fault not to keep my promise. I don't want yesterday's salary."

"What's the matter?"

Xia Xi asked coldly.

The carpenter's body shrunk again. He raised his head completely. His eyes glanced in a certain direction, and then he took them back immediately.

Xia Xi just saw the blue and purple on his face, now what no longer asked, turned around and walked.

His men are behind him.

Out of the street, can't help kicking the roadside wall, "Grandma's, if Zhang Ye is in, see which of them dare to trip."

Xia Xi looks cold, she is bright, Yu Yi is dark, this is not the way to go on, too passive.

For the next two days, no craftsmen were found, and the decoration of the shop was stopped.

……

In Luochen mountain villa, Fengche sits on the reclining chair and closes his eyes.

"Young master."

Feng an shouts at the door.

"Come in!"

Feng an pushed the door and stood in front of Feng Che. "Young master, someone just reported that it was Mrs. Xia's fast food restaurant that couldn't be decorated."

Feng Che opened his eyes.

Feeling the cold in his eyes, Feng an was excited.

The voice of the wind is clear. "Are you too busy?" I'm like a gossiper all day, and I'm a woman's Inquisitor. "

Feng an

Head down, silently looking at their toes.

Wind Che closed his eyes again and asked, "why?"

Feng an didn't respond, "ah?"

"I think it's time to change people around me."

Wind Che and chilly came a sentence.

Feng an

Busy way, "heard that is the decoration of the craftsmen all gone, Mrs. Xia everywhere can not find people, they shut down."

"Who did she offend?"

"I don't know about this."

"What do you know?"

Feng an

The master's temperament became more and more uncertain.

……

In the market, Xia Xi is closing the stall, and a carriage comes slowly.

Xia Xi didn't care, she was still cleaning up.

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the stall, and Feng an came down from it, "Madam Xia."

Xia Xi stops to clean up, nods, "the wind guards."

"Our young master, please."

"Sorry, I'm not free these days."

"We have craftsmen in Luochen villa."

In a word, let Lan'er take care of Qi'er and Hu Zi. Xia Xi gets on the carriage and comes to Luochen villa.

Fengche is still sitting on the couch, leisurely.

Feng an led the man to the door and reported, "master, madam Xia is here."

Feng Che opened his eyes, "come in."

Feng an opens the door, asks Xia Xi to go in, and then closes the door.

Xia Xi stands in front of Feng Che, "master Feng, let's talk about it if you have any conditions."

Feng Che's eyes glanced out of the window and asked, "Feng an, when is it?"

Feng an replied respectfully, "it's almost noon, young master."

Feng Che takes back his eyes, and the recliner under him shakes and shakes.

Xia Xi is also very on the road, "what do you want to eat?"

"Oily noodles."

Xia Xi didn't say anything and turned to the kitchen.

"Feng an."

The voice of Fengche came out of the room again.

Feng an quickly pushed the door, "young master."

"Send a message to the capital, let Qin Liang take three people to come here in two days!"

As soon as Feng an's mouth blows out, Qin Liang is a famous craftsman in Beijing. He specializes in building high gate mansions, but his master urges him to do ordinary craftsman's work.

In the heart belly Fei, mouth but respectfully answer a voice, "subordinate this go to spread a letter."

In the kitchen, Xia Xi made noodles and rolled them in person. When she finished, she brought them to Fengche and had two bowls. "Fengzhuang master, if it's not enough, I'll do it again."

Feng Che waved his hand.

Xia Xi puts down the noodles, turns around and goes out. After taking them to the door, Hou is at the door.

After two bowls of noodles, Fengche felt that he finally had a full meal. He took the kerchief and slowly dried his mouth. Then he raised his voice, "come on!"

The maid waiting at the door went in and picked up the dishes.

Then Xia Xi went in and said, "master Feng, craftsman..."

"What's for dinner?"

Wind Che asked slowly.

Xia Xi's forehead was blue and her whole body was angry.

As if not aware of her changes, wind Che is still slow road,

"All the craftsmen in Luochen villa are first-class. It's too humble to decorate your small shop. I've transferred a few out of class craftsmen from the capital. They won't arrive until two days later."

Xia Xi bit his back teeth and said, "thank you, master Feng."

"You're welcome. My elder sister told me to take good care of you when she left."

Take care of your head!

Xia Xi in the heart of the wind Che scolded countless times.

"Are you scolding me?"

Xia Xi was surprised and quickly denied, "master Feng is joking. I appreciate that it's too late for you. How can I scold you?"

The wind Che rare bend next corner of mouth, "know the last secretly scold my person end how?"

"Like, how?"

Xia Xi asked subconsciously.

Wind Che mouth corner more curved, Xia Xi but feel a cool air from the sole of the foot up.

"I dried it up and hung it on the wall of the capital."

His tone was not slow, as if to say what the weather was like today. Xia Xi but listen to the creepy, can't help but back a step, face also slightly changed.

Wind Che sees in the eye, is very satisfied, "go down, think about what to eat in the evening?"

Xia Xi steps to move, just walked a step, immediately stop, in the heart chagrin, oneself how a thick skinned thing scared? No, it's going to take a turn back!

Suddenly turned around, with a smile on his face, he said, "don't think about it. Today, I'll make Huaji for master Feng. It's better to use pheasant. It will be more fragrant."

Feng Che looks at her carefully and seriously.

Xia Xi face with a smile, really sincere, in addition to some bad tone.

Fengche can't feel the danger, so he takes back his eyes and closes his eyes

Xia Xi steps out briskly.

As soon as her footsteps disappeared, Fengche immediately opened his eyes, stood up and strode out, "prepare horses and go hunting."

Feng an

Feng Zhong

Silently looked at the foggy day, two people at the same time raised an idea in their hearts, "young master is crazy again."

……

It's going to be late. The kitchen has already started to prepare dinner. Fengche hasn't come back yet.

The housekeeper was so anxious that he ran to the outside of the villa and looked into the distance with his head outstretched.

Xia Xi also followed, but not to wait, but to find a place not far from the entrance of the villa, and then called the guard, "come here!"

The guard didn't dare move.

When the housekeeper heard it, he said, "Madam Xia, this is..."

"I'll make delicious food for you. Please ask them to come and help me."

The housekeeper's mouth slightly puffed. There was a kitchen in the villa. Where did he need to come out to cook? He tried to ask, "Madam Xia, but I'm not satisfied with the kitchen in the villa?"

Xia Xi waved his hand, "the housekeeper misunderstood. It's called Huaji. It has to be done outside. It can't be done in the kitchen."

The housekeeper was dubious and asked for a guard.

"Is the blade sharp in your hand?"

Xia Xi asked.

The two guards did not know what she was going to do. They looked at each other and nodded.

Xia Xi said with her hands, "you dig me such a big and deep pit."

Two guards

Housekeeper

……

When Fengche came back, it was already dark. The housekeeper stood anxiously in front of the gate, heard the sound of the horse's hooves, and rushed out immediately, "my young master, how did you come back?"

Feng Che's face was a little black. He stopped his horse and looked at Xia Xi.

Xia Xi has a smile on her face. The light of the lantern at the entrance of the villa shines on her face, which is not so ugly.

"Here you are..."

Wind Che black face to hit a pheasant throw to her.

Xia Xi almost didn't catch it. She took a look in her hand, shook her head, tut tut twice, looked up and asked him, "so small?"

Feng Che's face is blacker. Today, somehow, none of these wild animals came out. This one was hunted by Feng Zhong.

The voice was a little angry,

"I have a small appetite. One is enough."

"Really, the two bowls of noodles at noon..."

"Shut up

The breeze Che is a little exasperated to become angry, "if this call flower chicken does not do well, you that fast food restaurant also don't want to decorate."

Xia Xi immediately shut up and shook the pheasant in her hand.

The wind was so clear that the tendons of his forehead were beating.

The housekeeper was scared out in a cold sweat and hurried to Xia Xi, "Lady Xia, this is..."

"Woo woo woo."

Xia Xi talks with her mouth closed.

"Oh, lady Xia, what are you doing in riddles? You are talking."

"Your master won't let me say it."

Xia Xi still closed her mouth, and her voice was still whining.

Feng Che's forehead was full of tendons, and the whip in his hand aimed at her, "talk!"
