earing Xia Tian’s affirmative response, Ye Mengying couldn’t help but relax a bit: "The cost of this is rather high; around 5000 yuan. However, if it were diluted one hundred times over, the cost woul...Chapter 762: Working as a Laborer - Wuyou Chinese Network

"Uncle, it's fine. We can clean up ourselves."

Hearing Yun Qing say this, her uncle didn't try to persuade her anymore and simply said, "Alright then, I'll go home to get the brooms."

"No need, Uncle. The two of us will manage to clean it up; you should go ahead with your own business." Yun Qing hurriedly spoke, clearly able to tell that her uncle wanted to help her clean.

Yun Qing's uncle looked at Xia Tian once and suddenly seemed to understand something as he said cheerfully, "Alright then. I won't bother the two of you. Little Qing, Little Xia, you both take care of things first; we'll have dinner together later."

"Okay, Uncle." This time around, Yun Qing didn't refuse her uncle's kind offer.

Yun Qing's uncle soon left, but at this moment, Yun Qing came to the side of the car, opened the trunk, and took out two mops as well as some cleaning agents like sponges. She handed one mop to Xia Tian: "Let’s go sweep the floor."

Xia Tian finally understood that Sister Yun Qing had brought him here specifically to do hard labor.

But he didn’t mind; anyway, he was full of energy and strength. It wouldn’t matter if he worked as a laborer for a while. If he could continue being a laborer in the evening after doing it now, that would be even better.

Cleaning up a bungalow with two floors was actually quite an extensive project, especially since this house seemed to have been uninhabited for many years and some places had accumulated dust several inches thick. This made the task all the more daunting.

Fortunately, Xia Tian's energy was very abundant, and his actions were quick as well. At first, Yun Qing divided up the tasks equally between them, but in the end she found that she couldn’t keep up with Xia Tian at all. She then simply let him do everything by himself—fetching water to mop the floors and wipe tables and windows. All she had to do was carefully sweep again after him since he only cared about speed and not cleanliness, leaving many places slightly dirty.

The entire afternoon passed as they cleaned up. Xia Tian seemed quite relaxed doing most of the work, whereas Yun Qing sweated profusely and panted with exhaustion. Nevertheless, by evening, this house could be said to look brand new again. There was no longer any musty smell inside it; not a speck of dust remained, and everything looked bright and clean—completely unlike somewhere that hadn’t been inhabited for ages.

Middle Cloud Qing's uncle also came to visit a few times, but he just looked around and didn't say anything. Of course, Xia Tian now knows that Cloud Qing's uncle is called Yun Bo. Xia Tian also knows that Cloud Qing has her mother’s surname, which is the same as his policewoman sister-in-law. However, he doesn’t know whether the reason why Cloud Qing shares her mother’s surname is the same as it is for his policewoman sister-in-law. He hasn't asked about this yet.

"Sis Qing, are we staying here tonight" Xia Tian and Yun Qing are currently standing in the bedroom. Yun Qing is sitting on a bed resting; it's an ancient-style wooden bed. Although it should be quite old, after cleaning it up, it looks pretty new. The bed frame is still sturdy, but one drawback is that there is no blanket.

"Hn." Yun Qing softly responded, "I forgot to buy a blanket. It seems we have to go to the county town again later."

Xia Tian hadn't said anything when suddenly a voice came from outside: “Sis Qing, Brother-in-law, are you guys inside”

This voice is also familiar to Xia Tian; it's Yun Ziguang. It seems he has returned from Jianghai City.

"Yes." Yun Qing replied and got up to go out. Then she saw that Yun Ziguang was standing at the door, and there was a tricycle parked outside with some items loaded on it.

"Sis Qing, Brother-in-law!" Upon seeing the two of them, Yun Ziguang greeted them enthusiastically.

"Little Light, did anything happen later with your dog car" Yun Qing asked casually.

"Nothing happened, Sis Qing, Brother-in-law. I really thank you both today; otherwise, I wouldn't dare go home." Yun Ziguang was very grateful. He wasn't a wealthy person, and losing tens of thousands of yuan would be almost unbearable for him. Most importantly, he had been idle in the past and now worked hard to make money. If he were to suffer a big loss on his first try, he might lose confidence in continuing.

"You've just returned It's best if you head home." Yun Qing said indifferently. She wasn't very close with this cousin; however, it didn't mean their relationship was bad—it simply wasn't particularly intimate.

"Sis Qing, I brought some things back for you both," Yun Ziguang said as he started unloading items from the tricycle. "My dad called me and said that you would be staying at home but there were no quilts. So I bought a sheet set and quilt. We still have new cotton batting at home; I'll bring it over later. Additionally, I brought an electric water heater for you both. Sis Qing, wait a moment while I go get the cotton batting and then come back to install the water heater."

Yun Ziguang first carried in the water heater along with a canister of liquefied petroleum gas, then quickly left. A few minutes later, he returned carrying a brand-new quilt.

"Sis Qing, I'll go in and set it up for you first!" Yun Zhi Guang carried the cotton quilt and was about to enter.

"I'll do it myself," replied Yun Qing. This cousin's enthusiasm somewhat surprised her; she didn't expect that Yun Zhi Guang had actually bought everything she needed, which meant she wouldn’t need to go to town anymore.

Yun Qing started making the bed first, while Xia Tian helped Yun Zhi Guang install the water heater. Half an hour later, after the water heater was installed, Yun Zhi Guang hurried back home. Xia Tian naturally went to find Yun Qing in her bedroom but found that the bed had already been neatly made up. Yun Qing sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly lost in thought.

"Senior Sister Yun Qing, what are you thinking about" Xia Tian asked curiously.

"Nothing much," Yun Qing came to her senses and looked at Xia Tian with a rather gentle tone, "Is the water heater installed"

"It's done. I tried it out; we can take showers now." Xia Tian replied.

"You sit here for a while, I'll go take a shower first." Yun Qing was actually well-prepared this time, bringing a change of clothes. It was clear that she had already decided to stay here before coming, but hadn't told Xia Tian.

Yun Qing had sweated profusely and indeed needed a bath. Xia Tian didn't say anything; he just stared at the large bed, thinking about something delightful: tonight, he would sleep in this bed with Sister Yun Qing, and then he could do whatever he wanted to her.

Lying on his back, waiting for Yun Qing's return after her bath, Xia Tian didn't know how long passed when he suddenly heard footsteps. He leaped up but then became unhappy, staring at the person in the doorway and asking unhappily: "Hey, who are you guys"

The people appearing at the door were not Yun Qing, but two men. One was older, around sixty years old with white hair, while the other was young, only in his twenties. They looked quite similar, though it wasn't clear whether they were father and son or grandfather and grandson.

"Excuse me, is Yun Qing here" The elder man asked politely., Uncle wants to pay respects to someone. He just hasn't seen that person yet, so he hasn't left," Yu Jin said somewhat helplessly."Get in the bus and let's talk about it later!" Hu Tu grabbed Yu Jin...
