In the end, Shi Jing stayed behind since there must be soone with a pregnant woman at ho.
Sister-in-law Liu pushed a cart to the field, these two large pots of sugar buns amounted to seventy, which was enough to eat.
When she reached the field, Wei Kaiyun warmly invited everyone to eat.
Everyone was naturally happy to eat sugar buns.
Feifei called Jianbin, and the two went ho.
It wasn’t until it was dark that all the waterlons were finally planted, and Wei Kaiyun breathed a sigh of relief.
Tomorrow will continue to cover the ground film, and there are also lons and squash. We also need to nurture vegetable shoots.
At least for these three days, this land must be watched over.
Upon returning ho, the rice porridge was already made, using red pickled vegetables to stew scallop at.
Everyone was tired, so the al could not be made carelessly. Otherwise, the body couldn’t take it.
Jiang Xinyu used the afternoon to find lon and squash seeds, but they hadn’t sprouted yet; they had to wait until the ground film was covered for germination. If they sprouted too large, it wouldn’t work.
In the afternoon, Old Yang drove to Jin Family Village. His crew hadn’t arrived yet. He drove directly to the hostead where he saw Shitou had already arrived, and the wood should be at the village chief’s house.
He walked around and still felt they needed to build a wall around the yard. It would be much safer.
The plan was for three main rooms, a side room, a kitchen, a bathroom, a toilet, and a firewood room. This way, it would be complete.
After inspecting, he formulated a plan in his mind and drove to the village, which was extrely quiet as everyone was supposed to be in spring planting.
About an hour later, ten people arrived.
Seeing the boss’s car there, they went straight over.
They all brought tools, including two professional bricklayers, and the rest acted as laborers, doing whatever was needed.
The two bricklayers wasted no ti, directly assigning four people to dig the foundation with them, while the remaining eight made earthen bricks.
At night when work was done, Guodong and the others noticed the commotion over here and ran over together.
"Uncle Yang, thank you," Jing Chu was almost moved to tears.
"No problem, you should go eat and rest; I’ll go find the village chief. I brought food, but soone has to cook."
Zhao Xiaoli hesitated, "Mr. Yang, I can cook."
"You? Are you able? Yet it’s als for over ten people."
"I can manage, but we have nothing there."
"No worries, I’ve got it ready. I’ll find the chief to arrange things, and you can take charge of cooking."
Zhao Xiaoli nodded excitedly, staring at Old Yang with bright eyes. Despite his long hair covering his eyes, she still felt good about him.
Lv Guodong instructed the two of them to cook while he helped make the earthen bricks.
They were building a house for themselves and couldn’t just do nothing.
Old Yang was very satisfied with his attitude, as the quantity of work was secondary; the attitude mattered.
Old Yang went to the village chief’s house and found an empty room in the village; everyone needed a place to stay at night. They had co with coats, so blankets were unnecessary.
He then drove to the house, tidied it up, and started a fire; the nightti temperature wasn’t high. Though there were no blankets, the bed had to be warm.
After Jing Chu and Zhao Xiaoli finished cooking, they rushed to the construction site with the als.
Guodong told them to go to the empty house, as the als for the crew hadn’t been settled yet.
The two girls had beco very efficient at work. Collaborating on cooking, they made cornal pancakes, with no other dishes except red pickled vegetables, two large onions brought by Jiang Xinyu, and so dried shrimps mixed together, which also tasted good.
Once the food was cooked, Old Yang called the crew to eat.
The two girls saw everyone return and quickly avoided them. Although there was no strict separation between n and won nowadays, it was better to be cautious.
Old Yang asked Guodong to return as well.
The three carried their lunch boxes with heavy legs back to the courtyard.
Usually, there would be many people gossiping, but the spring planting was too exhausting, and everyone was asleep.
The three felt relieved, not having to listen to sarcastic remarks, and felt content.
After washing up, eating the now cold dinner, all three found it sweet and flavorful, as this truly brought hope.
The three were really tired, but they were happy. They fell asleep on the heated bed.
The next day before dawn, Guodong got up and went to the construction site, and Old Yang was already there.
"Master Yang, can I help with sothing?"
"No need, don’t overexert yourself; it’s not worth damaging your health."
"Yes, I’ve rested now."
"Then go fetch water; it’s not far from the river."
That day they spent digging half of the foundation and still needed many earthen bricks. The ordered bricks could be delivered. The preparation work would take three days.
Old Yang had already seen yesterday that window and door fras were ready, which saved a lot of effort. Tomorrow he must visit Xiao Wei’s house to get so food, as als for these ten people are quite a lot. What was brought yesterday wasn’t sufficient and wasn’t complete.
But Xiao Wei’s house was probably too busy. Xiao Jiang is really quick-minded; if the waterlons do well, they could make money just by connecting with the city’s supply and marketing cooperatives, without any risk.
Old Yang arranged the work here and joined in working, while Zhao Xiaoli assisted nearby, cooking only when the ti was right.
This group of people usually didn’t work much, but now it was pure manual labor, which they struggled with. However, seeing their boss still working, they had to endure and continue.
It took four days to finally dig the foundation, and the earthen bricks were all made, including those for the courtyard wall. There was a big enough area.
They were erected too, making the work faster. They were the size of regular bricks, making the wall sturdy when stacked.
Guodong ca to help after work. Now only Jing Chu cooked alone, and the few people there were particularly dissatisfied, but they dared not speak openly. Jing Chu was also fierce in her responses, and they no longer ate in the courtyard. If you eat more, what more do you want?
This group didn’t have any major vices, just envious, and they were silenced by Jing Chu’s retorts.
No need for hard labor tomorrow morning, so Old Yang drove to Xiao Wei’s house.
He arrived a bit past eight; Wei Kaiyun quickly asked Sister-in-law Liu to make pancakes for Old Wang.
"Let wash up at your place; it’s uncomfortable."
After cleaning up and eating to his fill, he explained why he had co.
Finally, he took away fifty pounds of rice, four big basins, ten pounds of soybean oil, red pickled vegetables, half a bag of dried shrimps, and fifty pounds of white flour. He also took twenty pounds of noodles; as for at, there was none.
