Chapter 132: The Villagers’ Shock 2

Unexpectedly, the old man nodded his head seriously after hearing this. “That’s also true. There are countless high-ranking officials and wealthy people living in Qingzhou City. As an old man, I’ve also met quite a few officials when I was working for others. These officials have concubines in their homes, even male ones sometimes. Every one of them… is truly quite perverted!”

“Is that so?” ‘So there really were perverts.’ He had just thrown out the excuse without much thought before.

The old man noticed that the youth’s movements when working the wood were quick and delicate. He did not seem like he was new to it at all.

The old man could not help but feel even more admiration for Si Jin. He was so beautiful that he had at first thought that his beauty was all there was to him. To his surprise, Si Jin was also able to do things without complaining about the work being tedious. He was also not loquacious, and he was a quick learner to boot. “You’re quite clever.”

Studying the blueprint as he checked his work, Si Jin replied, “I want to learn more things so that I can help Sister in the future.”

“Who is this sister?” He had never seen her before.

“My sister is the owner of this house.” Si Jin pointed at the large group of people who were currently working the land.

The old man was shocked. “So you’re her biological brother but she still lets you work here?”

Si Jin’s smile was very sweet. “No, I’m not her actual brother. I call her sister because she’s older than me!”

“What a respectful child.” The old man patted Si Jin’s shoulder. With a praising tone like that of an old teacher, he said, “You’re really gifted. Why don’t you join me and learn carpentry? You’ll definitely be an incredibly skilled carpenter.”

Si Jin looked at the old man with a pair of wide eyes before rejecting his suggestion. “I don’t think so. I belong to my sister. I want to get married off to her in the future so I have to become more useful now…”

“Married…” The old man’s jaw almost hit the ground. He corrected the child, “Foolish child, you’re supposed to say you want to marry her.”

Si Jin laughed, two pretty dimples appearing on his face. “Getting married off sounds about right. Sister is beautiful, smart, and rich! Men are of no use to her. That’s why I need to work hard and strive to be a useful person! After that…I’ll then become Sister’s boy toy.”

“…” The old man gulped, not knowing how to describe what he was feeling now.”

The boy had just said that he did not want to catch the eyes of perverts to prevent becoming their playthings, but in the end he, oh man… unexpectedly, his mind was filled with thoughts of becoming a beautiful woman’s boy toy!

Look at that ambition!

What has become of this world!

The old man felt a little behind the times for a moment.

…

The old man was Yuan, Yuan Yuzhi. Others either called him Old Yuan or Master Yuan. As the head foreman for this project, he had a budget of two thousand taels to build this house. To complete the job quickly, he had hired five other foremen from Qingzhou City who were meticulous in their work and also got them to bring people along with them. In a way, they were all making money together.

These foremen were well-known in Qingzhou City and they had built mansions for government officials. They were all masters and naturally knew how to read blueprints.

Each of the foremen was in charge of part of the work. They had been inspecting the blueprints in a puzzled manner as they worked. In the end, they could no longer stand it and looked for Old Yuan to ask some questions.

“Master Yuan, who the heck drew these blueprints?”

“The homeowner was the one who gave it to me. I heard it was the masterpiece of the master architect Li Qinglian,” said the old man mysteriously.

“Are you sure?” Master Cao could not quite believe that.

“That Li Qinglian had been missing for a long time though. How could a new masterpiece of his suddenly appear out of nowhere?” Master Bao was also a little suspicious as well.
