Chapter 401: Not Knowing Better
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Carefree City had a subtropical climate. It was summer and it rained frequently. From time to time, hurricanes would appear on the sea.
Without equipment to accurately predict the weather, Bai Wutong was worried that there would be a typhoon. Where there was typhoon, fishing boats of all sizes were not allowed to go out to sea to fish.
Unexpectedly, before the typhoon arrived, the rain suddenly turned into a heavy rain.
The torrential rain fell again and again like hard fists, smashing everyone’s tent into a mess. The bottom of the tent overflowed like a river, and the top of the tent was filled with leaky holes. The commoners’ belongings were also soaked in the rain.
If the rain stopped, it was not impossible for everyone to endure it for a day or two and clean up their things. However, the rain was very heavy, and it did not seem to want to stop even after the people shouted their hearts out.
Apart from Bai Wutong and a group of people who had moved into the villa earlier, the other houses were still incomplete houses. Many of the internal structures had yet to be completed. However, it was raining so hard. If the commoners continued to stay in the tent, many of them would definitely catch a cold and fall sick, and their assets would be damaged.
Bai Wutong ordered, “Arrange for the people to enter the houses to take refuge in an orderly manner.”
…..
Under Bai Wutong’s order, everyone quickly took action. Based on the population records, they arranged for everyone to take refuge in different houses.
Apart from the slaves, everyone else had their own houses and could enter their houses to stay. Even though it had not been renovated, everyone was still excited and happy.
After confirming the house where they were taking refuge, the entire family carried their belongings and ran crazily in the heavy rain.
The slaves did not have much belongings, so they carried a small package in.
Seeing the others discussing about theor new house in the rain with smiles, they felt like floating duckweed and did not feel happy.
By evening, the rain was even heavier. Fortunately, most of the livestock, food, and supplies had been transferred. The pouring rain was accompanied by thunder and lightning, like an earth-shattering symphony.
The wind blew, and a woman weighing 50 kilograms could be blown away easily.
Bai Wutong gave her instructions again. No matter what else was in the tent, no one was allowed to leave the house without permission.
After everyone finished counting their things, they finally had time to rest. They changed into fresh clothes and surrounded the charcoal stove to warm themselves.
Lin Siyu invented the sewing machine and improved the textile machine. She led the entire family out of slavery and obtained three acres of land and a villa.
No one was allowed to enter the villa during the construction stage.
This was the first time they had entered their real home. Lin Siyu’s husband and son were so excited that they even forgot to change their clothes. They jumped up and down around the villa and sized it up carefully.
As Lin Siyu had donated the sewing machine and the spindleless textile machine to the Imperial Court for free, the size of this villa was also one of the largest houses.
The villa had a total of four floors. The basement was used as a cellar and utility room. The first floor had the kitchen, a large bathroom, and a living room. It was connected to the poultry pen which could be used to raise pigs, chickens, ducks, or pets. It was also very convenient to park a bicycle.
The second and third floors were all rooms that could be designed according to their preferences. Most importantly, the master bedroom on each floor had a unique bathroom. The bathroom had a washstand and toilet made of ceramic. It was specially designed. The water could be transmitted up through the pipe, which was very magical to them.
In the future, when she renovated, she could even go to the glass factory to customize a mirror and hang it in the bathroom. Jiang Cong and Jiang Zhi could shave cleanly in front of the mirror, and Lin Siyu could sit comfortably and dress herself up.
There was also a small garden on the top floor. It could be used to grow vegetables, dry rice, or raise fish. It could also be used to build a pavilion and allow one to have a wide view of the scenery. From time to time, one could hold a barbecue party with one’s family.
The two courtyards in front and behind were extremely spacious. Their combined area was about three acres.
Even if it was an incomplete house, Lin Siyu’s entire family was already extremely satisfied. They could even accept moving in immediately.
Lin Siyu lit the beehive charcoal and said to Jiang Cong, “I’ve already asked the foreman. He said that our house is basically completed. The rest is up to us to renovate. How do you think we should renovate?”
Jiang Cong was lucky enough to have been to the Great Empress’s residence and had seen Bai Wutong’s exquisite, low-key, but warm interior design. They had 500 taels of silver on hand, so Jiang Cong said, “After all, it’s a house we have to live in for the rest of our lives. If we want to renovate it, we have to renovate it nicely. Qinghe Academy has a special design studio that has cooperated with our factory. Let’s go and ask! If it’s expensive, so be it. We can still earn money in the future.”
The price of their design was not cheap. While Lin Siyu was a little hesitant, Jiang Wei said, “Mother, Father is right. Our house is so good. If the renovation is too shabby, it will be a waste of this house.”
Lin Siyu thought about it and agreed. She gritted her teeth and nodded. “Alright, then we’ll find a specialized master to design it!”
Everyone reached an agreement and started talking excitedly as they looked at the house.
Su Yue and Granny Su, who had temporarily moved into the mass apartment, were also looking around the apartment.
The layout of each apartment was different. There were apartments with three bedrooms, two bedrooms and single room.
Su Yue and her mother were assigned a single room apartment. The kitchen and toilet were along the corridor. If they wanted to cook, they could only share the briquettes stove with everyone and take turns cleaning the toilet.
This condition was much better than the tent. The small single room was completely enough to accommodate them.
Originally, everyone was very satisfied until they visited and realized that the three-bedroom, two-bedroom, and one-bedroom apartment all had an attached toilet and kitchen. Everyone with slave status all revealed their envy.
How good would it be if they weren’t slaves!
If they weren’t slaves, they could also own such a good apartment.
Everyone discussed enthusiastically in the corridor, looking forward to the day when they could invent something as impressive as Lin Siyu. They could get rid of their slave status and move into the apartment. Su Yue bit her lip and looked at the villa area that was blurry in the wind and rain, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
If the apartment was already so good, one could imagine how good the villa would be.
Granny Su comforted her. “Master treats us very well. He definitely won’t let us continue living in the tent in the future.”
Su Yue turned around and glanced at her coldly. “I’ll definitely move into the villa!”
Granny Su thought that her daughter had changed after experiencing so much. She did not expect her to not know better.
Granny Su sighed helplessly. “Why are you doing this!”
It could not be hidden that Su Yue had lost her virginity. How could a decent man be willing to marry Su Yue?
Moreover, Su Yue was a slave. Who would want their child to be born from a slave’s stomach?
Unless the Great Empress abolished slavery, in Granny Su’s opinion, Su Yue just had unrealistic rosy thoughts.
Su Yue did not think much of it. The people of the southern frontiers were open-minded. If a woman could have multiple husbands, why couldn’t she?
She remembered that the third son of the Zhao family, Zhao Pengfei, was not married yet. He was a good candidate..
