After having breakfast with Xu Hongdou, Zhao Shucheng and Xu did not continue to stay in the yard and stared blankly. They walked out of the yard and went to different places.
Zhao Shucheng didn't want to circle around Xu Hongdou all day. Although she looked very beautiful in Zhao Shucheng's aesthetics and had a unique idol plot, this was not the reason why Zhao Shucheng became a dog licking.
What's more, if Zhao Shucheng really surrounds her every day, Xu Hongdou may hate her and feel that she is ill-intentioned, so it would be better to have normal contact like this.
Just as Zhao Shucheng and Xu Hongdou were wandering around the village, Xie Zhiyao started a new day of busyness.
He not only wants to manage the industries under his name, but also help Xie Heshun introduce the business.
However, even if Xie Zhiyao is so hard-working, there are very few products that can be sold. Moreover, Xie Zhiyao helped Xie Heshun like this, but Xie Heshun was not very grateful in the end.
The wood carving workshop is not his own industry. It is so enthusiastic and doesn’t appreciate it. Moreover, relying on the few orders introduced by Xie Zhiyao is simply a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause. Xie Heshun is not willing to listen to Xie Zhiyao, and he is unwilling to help him for free. Beingware of Xie Zhiyao is just like being thieves. Xie Zhiyao’s employees all think that Xie Zhiyao is putting on a cold butt with a warm face.
When Xu Hongdou walked around and returned to Youfeng Xiaoyuan, he saw that Maqiushan was not meditating, but instead sat on Zhao Shucheng's recliner, wandering leisurely.
Xu Hongdou was surprised when she saw it and said, "Master Ma, are you not meditating?"
"I don't see how comfortable you feel when you lie here every day, so come and experience it."
"How does that feel?"
"Don't say, Zhao Shucheng is a guy who can enjoy it. It's very comfortable to sit on it, and he can also take a rest while having a tea. It's really good."
"That's right, this thing is much more comfortable than your meditation. Do you want to give it a try too?"
Maqiushan was a little moved, but he still refused to admit it and said, "This is different. Meditation and sleeping are different things. Besides, the recliner was made by Xiao Zhao himself, and it will take several days to order..."
"What a big deal, if you prepare the materials and ask Zhao Shucheng to assemble them, it will take most of the day. Zhao Shucheng has done it for me, and it will be fine to help you."
Maqiushan was indeed moved, but hesitated and said, "You are a girl, he will be fine to help you. I may not agree."
"Zhao Shucheng is not a person who forgets his true feelings when he sees sex. He treats men and women differently. Don't worry, there is definitely no problem."
Zhao Shucheng happened to come back at this time. When he heard Xu Hongdou's words, he couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the difference?"
"It's nothing. Even Mr. Ma wants a recliner, so I want to ask if you can help make one."
Zhao Shucheng said: "Why? It's just this matter. As long as Ma Master prepares the materials and takes care of them. And the materials problem is easy to solve. There are some in Master Xie's wood carving shop, just go and ask for some wood by yourself."
Maqiushan stopped pretending and said, "Okay, I'll go now." After that, he put his hands behind his back, and then he swayed as if he was not in a hurry at all, but when he walked out of the yard, he no longer looked like a master. He ran all the way to Xie Heshun's store to buy wood.
When Xu Hongdou saw Maqiushan leaving, she said to Zhao Shucheng: "Don't you think I'm asking for trouble for you, do you?"
"How could it be? I'm idle every day, so it's good to do some woodworking work. Besides, I live in the same yard. I'll definitely help if I can help."
"That's good. You have been cooking these days, and today I will let you taste my skills."
As he said that, Xu Hongdou put his cell phone on the table and went to the kitchen to get busy.
Zhao Shucheng was sitting on the lounge chair, shaking while savoring tea.
Suddenly Xu Hongdou's cell phone rang. Zhao Shucheng picked it up and saw that it was Xu Hongdou's mother called. He quickly shouted to Xu Hongdou: "Xu Hongdou, your mother has called you!"
After hearing this, Xu Hongdou said, "I can't walk away. Please help me to pick it up first to see if there is anything urgent. If it's okay, I'll go back later."
Zhao Shucheng hesitated for a moment, but pressed the answer button.
"Hey, aunt, hello!"
Xu Hongdou's mother was originally going to say something to her daughter, but when she heard the voice of a man, she was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Who are you? Where are Hongdou?"
"Auntie, hello, I am Hongdou's friend Zhao Shucheng. Is she busy now? Let me help me answer it. Is there anything urgent to find Hongdou here? Otherwise, let Hongdou come back to you later, or I will help you call her now."
"No need, just let Hongdou come back for me later."
After Xu Hongdou's mother hung up the phone, she kept guessing what Zhao Shucheng had to do with Xu Hongdou and why Xu Hongdou asked Zhao Shucheng to hold her cell phone and help her answer the phone.
Xu Hongdou heard Zhao Shucheng say that her mother asked her to go back, put down what she had in her hand, and said, "Okay, I'll go back to my mother first, and then go to cook later."
After calling my mother, I realized that my mother called me because of Aunt Sun’s affairs.
Aunt Sun's son, daughter-in-law, and family of three are going to travel to Beijing. They want to take advantage of Xu Hongdou's identity as the hotel lobby manager to stay in the hotel at a low price.
However, Xu Hongdou had resigned long ago and was hiding it from his parents, so he did not want Aunt Sun's son's family to go to the hotel where he worked, otherwise he would be helpless. So he did not agree to help directly, but instead used the excuse of the high hotel price and the holiday he was on, and he could not make the decision. He did not agree to help directly.
Xu Hongdou didn't help but ask Aunt Sun about the price she could accept, and said she would ask friends who also worked in the hotel to help her and arrange a more suitable hotel for them.
Because Xu Hongdou's mother was also present, it was difficult for her to ask her daughter what her relationship was with Zhao Shucheng. She could only simply ask how Xu Hongdou had been having fun these two days.
Xu Hongdou said, "I'm having a good time, I'm drinking tea in the yard with my friends."
After hearing this, Xu Hongdou's mother first thought that Xu Hongdou's friend was Zhao Shucheng, who had helped her daughter answer the phone. She knew her daughter's personality very well and could actually sit down and drink tea. This is not an ordinary relationship.
However, it is not the right time to ask questions. Not to mention that Zhao Shucheng may be around Xu Hongdou, and Aunt Sun is around him. If he asks himself, this matter may be directly spread by then.
However, Xu's mother also decided to have a good chat with her daughter at night to see what the relationship between Zhao Shucheng and her daughter is. Could it be that her daughter finally figured it out and was about to fall in love and get married?
This matter was successfully resolved, and Aunt Sun was naturally envious of Mama Xu and felt that she had raised two good daughters. Mama Xu was naturally very helpful when she heard Aunt Sun's praise, and also praised Aunt Sun's son for being good.
After seeing Xu Hongdou hung up the phone, Zhao Shucheng asked, "Hongdou, is it okay at home?"
"It's okay, it's just that someone at home is going to travel to Beijing and wants to ask me for help."
"It's fine, by the way, let's prepare for dinner!"
However, before Xu Hongdou's meal was ready, Maqiushan had already returned.
"Master Ma, you're going back and forth fast enough."
"Is it fast? It's just a feeling to say that it's fast and slow, the ancients said..."
At this time, Xie Heshun shouted outside: "Master Ma, where are you putting this wood?"
"Just here, here!" Maqiushan couldn't continue to say anything, so he could only settle the wood he bought first.
After Xie Heshun helped move in, he saw Zhao Shucheng's recliner chairs and thought of the business in his wood carving shop, and he was immediately worried.
He used to be the most outstanding wood carving master in the village, and even famous in all the villages. At that time, Xie Heshun was in a great honor. He wanted him to make wood carvings, and even those who wanted to do wood carvings had never stopped. Moreover, the apprentices who wanted to learn wood carvings from him were also squeezing.
At that time, Master Xie didn't have to ask for help, but others came to ask for help. However, in just over a decade, his own wood carving shop's business plummeted, and even such good things could not be sold.
Xie Heshun's son told him that machine engraving is faster than his own handicrafts and cheaper, and people are replaced by machines. However, he is unwilling to accept this result. Why has his good craftsmanship been broken for so many years?
After putting down the wood, he left in disappointment.
Xu Hongdou felt a little disappointed when she saw Xie Heshun leaving. She looked at Zhao Shucheng and asked, "What's wrong with Master Xie?"
"It's nothing, it's just that my disciples are leaving. I'm worried about my disciples."
"Are you leaving? Are they leaving?"
"No, I can't stand the loneliness and prepare to work outside, and I don't want to practice my craft here."
After hearing this, Xu Hongdou didn't think there was anything. After all, everyone has their own pursuits. And just like people in big cities, they can't just do one job, and they may not even be able to do the same job every time they change jobs. Maybe they are doing marketing today and they will go to sales tomorrow.
Maqiushan didn't care about these things, but asked, "Xiao Zhao, can you see these? I told Master Xie that I purchased them according to the size of the wood you made before."
Zhao Shucheng walked over and looked at it, saying, "No problem, the size is suitable, and even if it is not suitable, it is not a big problem to splice it slightly. By the way, Mr. Ma, do you have any requirements for the pattern on it?"
"I don't know much about this, but it's better to have classical charm. Of course, it would be better if it was a fairy-like style."
