Chu Ying went home and cut some grass to feed the rabbits, and then fetched water from the pond to water the wheat, which has slowly started to heat up recently, and the wheat needs a little more water.

Fortunately, with the drip irrigation system I had set up earlier, I have now finished watering the ground with a few buckets of water, and the wheat has begun to set ears, and it will be harvested in a few months, so that I can pay my taxes and eat it myself.

When she was fetching water, Chu Ying found that there were small things like tadpoles in the water, and when she got closer, she saw that they were small fish gathered together, and it seemed that the method of digging the lake mud was still of a little use.

But Chu Ying saw that the pond with only water and mud was empty and had to add something to it, Chu Ying took a sickle and went to the lake to dig up some reeds and cattails to plant, and when they took root, they could supply oxygen to these small fish.

Chu Ying originally wanted to cook outside the house without building a kitchen, but it was indeed inconvenient when it rained, and her own food could only be placed in the living room, and the already small house looked a little crowded.

Chu Ying went to the city and bought an axe, if she wanted to build a house, she needed a good axe, although it cost 8 yuan of silver, but Chu Ying could only go to Qin Zhong to get it and hand it over.

Holding the heavy axe, Chu Ying felt that it was really good to be rich for the first time, and now that she had at least a home, she finally didn't have to look for her stone axe by the stream.

"Hey, boy, you took my jade pendant as a jade pendant, and you bought an axe." As soon as Chu Ying heard his voice, she knew that the person who came was not good, who else could it be if it wasn't that unlucky bastard.

Although he lost his cotton clothes and lost his first kiss, he also got money, and he could barely be regarded as his god of wealth, Chu Ying squeezed out a smile and turned to Lu Ming.

"Hmph, my jade pendant is at least 10 taels, you actually went to be it, you really don't have the eyesight." Chu Ying was happy when she heard that the broken jade pendant was actually worth 10 taels, but there was endless remorse on her face.

"Then you didn't say it earlier, I just took 2 taels. Scammed. Chu Ying pouted and glared at Lu Ming.

"Don't blame others if you're stupid. Kitschy. Chu Ying saw that Lu Ming glanced at him with disgust and was about to leave, so she hurriedly pulled him.

"You are well-informed, well-informed, rich in learning, I am a layman to trouble you with one thing, do you know this?" Chu Ying took out the silver lid she had brought with her.

Chu Ying looked at him in his hand for a long time and looked at herself in disbelief, "How can you have this?" Where did you steal it? ”

"Although I am not rich, I will not do anything like stealing chickens and dogs, don't frame me, who are you accusing me of." Chu Ying must have known the way he looked, otherwise he wouldn't have been so excited.

"You tell me how you got it first, and then I'll tell you whose it is." Chu Ying heard him say this, this person he not only knew but also probably had some friendship.

"I picked it up on the road, and I was supposed to pick it up for the person in front, but I couldn't find anyone with a bowed head."

"You are talking nonsense, this is a fire fold, will a girl's family take the fire fold out? You say it quickly, don't say it, I won't tell you who she is. Chu Ying heard this, this owner is still a woman.

"It's nothing, I'll go first." Chu Ying snatched the silver lid and walked away quickly. Looking at Lu Ming, who was shouting at him, he felt that he couldn't believe him.

It was impossible to believe that the girl would set the fire to him, and he was afraid that he was in the same league as the girl.

According to Chu Ying's observation and the investigation and questioning of the neighbors, most of the people Lu Ming came into contact with were men, and the only one was only the eldest lady of Yuwen Mansion, the woman who had a marriage with him.

Chu Ying patted his chest, a little afraid, fortunately he didn't tell the truth, in case he knew that his fiancée had attempted to kill him, and he would be in trouble to make up for this knife.

Chu Ying thought about the eldest lady who came to find her before, and it seemed that the fire at home had some connection with the Yuwen family.

But I don't know why I didn't come to harm myself before, and I waited so long to come to me, something must have stimulated them, and the eldest lady who had found me may be the fuse.

Chu Ying went home and went to the back to cut some suitable trees, but every time she cut down the chestnut tree, Chu Yinghua felt that it was not a way, but the sumac and pine trees were embarrassed to cut the sap.

Chu Ying lit a fire under a pine tree, and cut a bamboo chip in the upper part to catch the pine tree left by the heat.

When the flow was almost over, Chu Ying cut down the pine tree and moved the pine resin from the clay pot back home, which could be used to make dozens of candles.

Although this method is fast and convenient, it is not a sustainable way to kill chickens and collect eggs, and you just need wood to do it.

After cutting the required wood, Chu Ying went to Uncle Qi who was building a house and told Uncle Qi about her idea of building a house.

"If you build it, you have to build it? Can't you get enough of it? ”

"It's on fire, and there's no room, so you can help me build a frame, and I'll build the wall myself with adobe bricks."

"On fire? You'll have to paint the outside so that it's fireproof. Chu Ying originally wanted to paint the floor inside and then paint it outside, but she was too busy and she thought that there would be no fire, so she kept putting this plan on hold.

"Well, now I know."

"But it's a little expensive, 20 wen a liter of raw lacquer. A room has to be a lot. Chu Ying originally thought that this lacquer was not that valuable, after all, she saw some lacquer trees last time she went into the mountain.

"Okay, then you can come tomorrow when you are free, I'll do it." Chu Ying made an appointment with Uncle Qi and slowly returned home.

Before I got home, I saw Bai Yuhe standing at my door, could it be that I wanted to come a second time because I couldn't do it?

"What are you doing at my house again?"

Bai Yuhe walked over and took Chu Yinghua's hand, and said with concern: "You better move away, even if it is not next time, I will have someone else, this time I am sorry for you, but I can't help it." ”

Chu Ying was frightened by such a soft-spoken Bai Yuhe, and was a little uncomfortable. "Why am I moving out, who am I at odds with? I'm doing well. ”

"I was going to marry a wealthy businessman from the Wang family, but my stepmother bought books and clothes for my brother as a dowry, and paid for two years. Then the man came to me. ”

Chu Ying opened the door and let Bai Yuhe in, looking at her usual spicy and unreasonable appearance, she didn't know that she would come to her like this.

"The man gave me a fire fold and six taels of silver. He said that he would be fine with the rich merchant, but he asked me to set a fire and burn you to death. Bai Yuhe held Chu Ying's hand, and the tears in her eyes were rolling.

"I really don't want to, but I have no choice, or I have to marry that rich businessman, you also know that what I like is Brother Wang, I really can't help it, I can only put the fire in the kitchen, so that you may still have a trace of life."

As he spoke, Bai Yuhe knelt down. "I'm not here to ask you for forgiveness, I'm just asking you to move out and escape from these, or next time I will have someone else who will only kill you."
