Ye Qing's house was exceptionally lively today.
The renovation of the new house was completed. Ye Qing had just moved back from the Deaf old lady's place. In addition, the courtyard house was on holiday today.
During this period of time, the daily working hours of the workers were usually eight to ten hours.
Working overtime was very normal.
In fact, there was only one day of rest per week.
Today was the day of rest, so all the families in the courtyard house were basically there.
Ye Qing's renovation was a big deal for the Siheyuan.
Many people came to see how the renovation was.
The renovation workers all felt that Ye Qing's renovation was very beautiful, let alone the people in the courtyard house.
Ye Qing couldn't reject them and not let them in.
Even if Ye Qing bought a new tea set, it would not be enough for the people who came and went to drink water.
In the blink of an eye, a new kettle was emptied.
Many people were in their newly renovated homes. They were touching and looking around, their eyes full of envy.
Of course, there were also many who were jealous.
The sunlight was bright, and the furniture looked quite high-class. Instantly, every room in the courtyard house was a little unpresentable.
However, with the deaf old lady at home, the residents who came to see the new things did not gossip.
"You must have spent a lot of money!" Third Uncle asked Ye Qing enviously.
"It's alright. It's almost 1,000 in total. It's finally done!”Ye Qing replied.
Ye Qing didn't discount the amount of money. It was as much as it should be, so that these people wouldn't find out that the money wasn't right when they recommended it to him. It would be even more troublesome.
Many people in the room had also heard Ye Qing's words. When they heard that it was a thousand yuan, three words appeared in their minds at the same time: Prodigal.
He had spent thousands of yuan to renovate the house. Wasn't this squandering? At this time, 1,000 yuan could buy a house of about 50 square meters.
Even if he had money, there was no need to waste it like this.
When Third Uncle heard that it was a thousand yuan, he was also shocked. That much money was his salary for several years.
Third Uncle suddenly had an idea. Should he treat them to a meal?
Recently, Ye Qing had been preparing lunch for the workers every afternoon. Everyone had seen it.
Whether it was steamed buns, stir-fried vegetables, or soup, the smell spread throughout the entire courtyard.
However, every time, Ye Qing would cook just enough for all the workers. He did not give them any chance at all.
However, before Third Uncle could speak, Ye Qing looked troubled and said,""Originally, the house had just been renovated, so I should have treated everyone to a meal, but the renovation expenses exceeded the plan.
"Everyone knows that in the past, my father spent a lot of money on food to take care of me. There wasn't much left. In addition, I just bought a bicycle. Although the factory compensated me a little, the renovation of the house basically emptied me.
"You don't know that my grandmother has been paying for the food for the past few days, so I can only treat everyone to some tea. Please understand!”
Ye Qing said a lot, and everyone understood. There was no food, but there was tea.
However, when Third Uncle saw the tea Ye Qing brewed, he immediately frowned. This was not tea, but baby's breath, the cheapest tea foam. Only those poor people would drink this.
Third Uncle originally thought that he was already stingy enough. He did not expect that Ye Qing, who seemed to have suffered a huge blow when it came to spending money, was actually even more stingy than him.
Even he was embarrassed to use baby's breath to entertain guests.
It wasn't that Baby's Breath couldn't be drunk, but drinking tea was a culture after all. Baby's Breath would leave a mouth full of tea leaves, so how could he drink it?
Now, even the dumbest person would know that Ye Qing's attitude was obviously unwelcoming.
Many people turned around and left.
Someone could not help but say to the Deaf Old Lady,""Old Lady, you should also say something about Xiao Yezi. If he doesn't want to treat, then he doesn't want to treat. How can he use Baby's breath to chase people away!”
The Deaf Old Lady said in confusion,""What did you say?"
Seeing this, the person who spoke could only turn around and leave. Everyone knew what was going on with the old lady. She chose to hear or not to hear.
If he continued, he would only be asking for a snub.
Soon, most of the people in the room had left.
However, Third Uncle did not leave. He came later than the others and had not taken a good look.
He caressed. He touched the smooth wall and asked in surprise,""Are these walls all made of wood?"
"After the original walls were re-glued, they were sealed with wooden planks. I found the old master at the entrance of the alley. His craftsmanship is not bad.”
At this point, Ye Qing was also very impressed with the craftsmanship of the old carpenter. This wooden wall was made up of pieces of wood that were joined together seamlessly. If one did not look carefully, one would not be able to see the gaps.
In the future, when his drawing level increased and he painted on the wall, it would be even more difficult to tell.
Ye Qing was quite satisfied with this.
Third Uncle nodded. Ordinary people wouldn't be so extravagant as to use wooden boards to seal the walls.
Furthermore, the furniture in the house, including the wooden boards used to seal the walls, were all mahogany. No wonder the renovation cost only 1,000 yuan.
Just the wood alone was worth at least four to five hundred yuan.
After strolling around the newly renovated house, Third Uncle did a simple calculation and said to Ye Qing,""You really spent no less than 1,000 yuan. Even the bedding and everything else were changed. You even bought a lot of small furniture, including those new pots and pans. You really are willing to spend money!”
Ye Qing only smiled lightly when he heard Third Uncle's words. The old bedding was so old that the cotton had turned black and there were patches on it.
If he could get a new one, he naturally had to get a new one. On the big bed, Ye Qing also bought a new mosquito net. Along with other miscellaneous things, it also cost Ye Qing a lot of money.
Fortunately, there were basically tickets, so he saved a lot.
Ye Qing also admired Third Master's foresight and said,""Forget about the others today. Tonight, invite Third Master over for a drink. I made a bottle of aged Maotai for a long time!”
Hearing Ye Qing's words, Third Uncle's eyes lit up and he said,""Alright, I'll definitely come over!"
Ye Qing actually did not hate Third Master. Although Third Master loved to scheme, it was mostly to support his family. Otherwise, with his salary, how could he support his family?
Of course, it was also because Third Master had not schemed against him. Otherwise, Ye Qing would not have invited him.
The most important thing was that Ye Qing felt that he needed someone to speak up for him in this courtyard house. After looking at it for a while, Third Uncle was the most suitable person.
