    The repairing of the house looks lively, but in fact, it took five or six days for the dilapidated small yard bought from the village chief to look brand new and live in.

    But the house is good, but because it has been vacant for a long time, the furniture in the house has long been unusable, and there are some scattered daily necessities, all of which have to be prepared by him. Moving and settling is so cumbersome.

    Fortunately, with the help of Lin Laogen, the work of making furniture is much easier. He found a carpenter in the village to build it. Although he couldn't make the beautifully carved and high-end furniture in the carpenter's shop in the town, the furniture he made was also It is sturdy and durable. The most important thing is that the carpenters in the village are cheap, and Lin Laogen kindly helps him save money.

    Wu Qingyuan doesn't lack this amount of money now, but he doesn't plan to live in this house for a long time, and he will build a new house alone in the future. These things don't need to be so refined for the time being.

    Get things done with furniture, as well as other odds and ends of life, quilts, beds, pots and pans, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

    Thinking about it, Wu Qingyuan simply took Zhou Geer to the town. As a little brother who was taught to marry and run a family since childhood, Zhou Geer's family affairs must be more than his before and after the apocalypse. The strong, by the way, also take these opportunities to get acquainted with this 'brother'.

    In the morning, after getting up to change clothes and having breakfast, Wu Qingyuan was ready to take Brother Zhou out.

    Before leaving, when he saw Lin Amo in the yard, he couldn't help but ask, "Amer, I'm not busy with farm work today, do you want to go shopping in the town with us?"

    He has been living in Lin's house for almost half a month. He knows Lin Amo's character very well and likes to run around the most.

    But who would have thought that the usually lively young man who likes to join in the fun suddenly changed his rules today, shook his head, said with a smile, "I also sew clothes for Dad" and ran back to the house.

    Wu Qingyuan was a little regretful, but he could only give up and leave with Brother Zhou.

    Today is not the day to go to the market. Although there are many people in the town, it is not crowded. Wu Qingyuan took the initiative to chat with Brother Zhou while taking him to buy the living items after the move. It's up to him to take the initiative.

    But it's not bad. Brother Zhou and Amo Lin have played well since childhood, and the two have a lot in common. He started talking about the topic of Zhou Daniu, and also gave Zhou Daniu's black and white inch photo in the 1960s. made him think.

    Holding his brother's photo, Zhou Ge'er was very moved, and heard Wu Qingyuan make up some of how his 'aunt' living overseas misses him as a relative and misses him all these years.

    After some family offensive, Zhou Geer quickly opened his heart and got close to him a lot. It was more natural to call him cousin. Wu Qingyuan took him to the cloth village to make clothes and he did not refuse. , shyly accepted, for the first time in so many years, he felt the love of his family.

    However, he was still a little flattered when he saw that Wu Qingyuan chose all the best fabrics, and there were a lot of them.

    "I don't need so much, I have enough clothes, these, these are too expensive, just buy that kind of burlap..."

    He can accept Wu Qingyuan making clothes for him, but the villagers wear coarse linen on weekdays, and the clothes of good material are reserved for Chinese New Year and festivals to wear when they go away, but at this moment Wu Qingyuan buys so many at once. Good cloth for him, he was a little frightened, how much money it would cost.

    "Cousin, I, I don't need to dress so well, let's save the money to buy fields."

    Brother Zhou pulled Wu Qingyuan to persuade in a low voice.

    He didn't know how much money Wu Qingyuan had on him, but Wu Qingyuan settled in the village these days, buying a house, asking people to make up the house and making furniture, and now buying daily necessities. Less money.

    Now he still spends so much money to only make a few clothes for him. It will be a long time in the future. My cousin has not bought land or married, so he has spent all the money on him. He can't be a tow bottle.

    "You don't have to worry about the silver thing, and you don't need to be polite to me. You call me brother, the eldest brother is like a father. Who do you see being polite to your own brother? Don't worry, cousin has his own measure, come and see, Which of these colors does Brother Ling like? We have disturbed them for so long, so we should send something..."

    Knowing that Brother Zhou is also simple and simple, Wu Qingyuan explained with a smile, without too much entanglement, he directly shifted his attention and asked him to come over to help him choose.

    The price of cloth in the cloth village is indeed very expensive. A piece of ordinary cotton cloth costs half a copper coin. It is indeed very luxurious for the villagers to wear this kind of material for every garment, but if he can afford it, he will definitely not treat him badly.

    If the money is gone, you can make more money. There is no need to be so wronged and suffer. After dying once, he understands the saying of enjoying life better than anyone else.

    Brother Zhou didn't know how to persuade him, and he was moved again when he heard his words. He really felt that the villagers were right. Now that he has been transferred, he couldn't refuse to come up to help choose obediently.

    "Cousin, Amer likes blue, buy this..."

    He and Lin Amo have been friends for more than ten years. Naturally, he has a clear preference for friends. He quickly helped Wu Qingyuan choose a light blue cotton cloth. The clear and light color is indeed very suitable for Brother Lin.

    Wu Qing moved a little further and asked the proprietress to wrap it up, and then continued to ask Zhou Ge'er and Lin Amo's other preferences.

    "...Amer also likes to watch juggling. Every year when he comes to juggling in town, he will pull me to watch it secretly at night. Hehe, Uncle Lin always says that he doesn't follow the rules. In fact, Amer likes to join in the fun. By the way, Amer likes it. He likes snacks, white sugar cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, and sesame oil shortcakes, but the snacks are too expensive, so we can only eat them once during Chinese New Year..."

    Brother Zhou didn't have any doubts. He heard that he thanked the Lin family for their help during this period of time, so he naturally said what he knew.

    "Do any of these grocery stores sell them?"

    Wu Qingyuan listened quietly, wrote down these secretly, and then asked.

    "Some do, some don't. We don't have dim sum shops in town, and grocery stores don't always sell them. You have to go and see them to find out. By the way, cousin, we can go to the Fook Kee grocery store on East Street later. Look, his family has the most everything, we can buy oil and salt together, and he can send us to the village when there are more things."

    Brother Zhou also guessed that he probably wanted to buy some more snacks to give to the Lin family as a thank-you gift for their cousins ​​who had taken in them during this time.

    Thank you to the Lin family, as well as Amo. He is happy to give him cloth, but he must be happier to give him snacks. He knows his friends' preferences too well.

    "Okay, it's too hot, I'll go buy it, you rest here and wait for me."

    Writing down the name of the grocery store that Zhou Ge'er said, Wu Qingyuan asked him to stay in the cloth village and wait, and then went out to run by himself, leaving Zhou Ge'er in the cloth village looking at a pile of fine cloth, happy and worried.

    Here, Wu Qingyuan left Bu Zhuang and ran directly to the Fu Ji grocery store on East Street.

    He had been in town several times, and he was so familiar now that he could find the place without having to ask anyone.

    He walked very fast along the way. Almost from Brother Zhou's description, he could imagine the boy's happy smile after receiving the snacks, and he couldn't wait.

    He didn't quite understand why he was like this. Although he told Brother Zhou just now that he just wanted to thank the Lin family for buying something as a gift, what he thought in his mind was what to sell to Lin Amo and what the other party would like. .

    Wu Qingyuan's IQ is not low, but there are some problems with his EQ. It's not that he has a low EQ, but that he has a high EQ in analyzing things, but when it comes to himself, he pauses.

    He has lived for more than 30 years in the past and present life. He has seen countless beauties and beautiful boys, and he has never been short of people who have taken the initiative to court him, but he has never had any contacts.

    Friends who knew him even wondered if he had a physical problem. The beauties with bumpy and hot bodies, and the beautiful boys with white skin and attractive criminals, all stripped naked and standing in front of him, he didn't even respond!

    Even he himself once wondered if he really had a physical problem, but the normal reaction of a man when he woke up every morning proved that his body was normal.

    So he always thought that he was just a little more self-control than the average person. He wanted to find someone who was attracted to him, but his fate had not yet arrived. Over time, his emotional intelligence in this regard became even more dull.

    At this moment, Wu Qingyuan, who had a low emotional intelligence, never thought that he might already have a good impression of Lin Amo, but when Lin Amo received the gift, his eyes were smiling, his steps were faster, and he was alive. After more than 30 years, the silent heart has an abnormal excitement.

    Soon he ran to the Fook Kee grocery store on East Street to buy things, and when he came out, he was about to return to the cloth village, but he suddenly saw a figure sneaking past in front of him.

    Although the other party covered his head and face with a cloth, and covered his face with his hands, Wu Qingyuan recognized who it was at a glance, his flexible figure, and the one that he saw someone wearing just this morning. Clothes, who is not Lin Amo?

    Before he could say hello, he saw that the boy had flexibly turned into an alley, and entered a place at the entrance of the alley that looked like a restaurant but not like a restaurant.

    "Hey, eldest brother, where is that building opposite?"

    There is a plaque at the entrance of the building, but unfortunately Wu Qingyuan didn't know the characters here, so he could only hold a passing man to ask.

    The man was stunned for a moment, then looked him up and down and replied, "Brother, are you from out of town? Zuihualou, don't you know about our famous small shop in Shiqiao Town?"

    "......"

    When the words fell, Wu Qingyuan's eyelids jumped.
