After the three mothers-in-law left, the old lady looked at He Mai and said quietly: "I don't know what kind of wind they smoked today, and I don't take a second look at this piece on weekdays, so why will I come here today?" ”

"I guess I wanted to see the joke." He Mai said softly, "Let's ignore them, these people have nothing to do when they are full, and they have nothing to do with us when they are full of food, and they have nothing to do with us." ”

Qin Shi looked at He Mai with satisfaction, and said softly: "My He Mai is the best, whatever outsiders say, let's live our own lives seriously." ”

He Mai lowered his head slightly, and he agreed very much.

As the old saying goes, it's not like a family doesn't enter a door, and that's true.

She and the old lady are the kind of people who are plain and calm, and they will not be happy and sad, and when they encounter some gossip, they are not afraid of being slandered, but they are worried that their families will be sad and sad because of this.

The water on the small stove was boiling, and He Mai carried the kettle into the courtyard and distributed water to the young people to drink.

These young people are young and strong and can eat and drink, and it is unceremonious to eat and drink, and when they see the two taels of sesame oil in their stomachs, they can't stand the two taels of sesame oil in their stomachs, and they begin to be hungry when they get to the meal.

By evening, most of the work on the roof was done. But by this time it was getting late, and this work could not be done in the dark, so I had to come back tomorrow.

This process was already very fast, Qin Shi and He Mai were very happy in their hearts, seeing the young people sweating one by one, they hurriedly opened their mouths to keep them eating, and naturally got a cheering response.

Therefore, the young men were very happy to eat three meals a day at the Lord's house, which was far more joyful than giving them a few dozen copper coins.

Yang Liulang couldn't do anything, he brought all the remaining rice and grain from the house, and these young people ate almost all of them at noon, and at night, they ate all the meals prepared by their ancestors and grandchildren like starving ghosts.

After eating, Yang Liulang said to He Mai apologetically: "It will be completed tomorrow in the last day." I'll go get some rice grain for you to bring over next day," he glanced at Ma Er, who was sitting next to him with a round belly, and said, "I'm afraid they've eaten up half a month's rations for you and the old lady?" ”

"Why, not so much!" He Mai hurriedly shook his head and refused, "You don't bring rice grain!" You can come and help repair the roof of my house, I am already grateful, these rice grains, but just stuttering, should be responsible for us in the first place, why are you so outside? ”

Yang Liulang still insisted, and said: "Since you don't want me to see outside, Ming'er will accept it." ”

When he saw that He Mai was about to refuse, he said: "It is also moldy in my house, so it is better to move it to your house, and when I am hungry, you can make me a bite to eat." ”

He thought for a while, and then said, "Anyway, you're going to live with me next month, and then we'll go buy rice and grain together, won't it?" ”

He Mai's face flushed, and his heartbeat accelerated. Fortunately, it was evening, and the moonlight was not enough to illuminate the blush on her face.

"W-That's up to you!" She hurriedly left a sentence, hurriedly turned around and ran into the house.

Yang Liulang stood in place, looking at the back of the girl under the bright moon for a while, and suddenly, his heart seemed to have been hit by something, and there were some ripples.

Early the next morning, Yang Liulang and a group of people came to work in the small hut early, and there was only a little unfinished work left on the roof, and there were not too many people to do it.

Today, Hemai and the old lady prepared a lot of food and prepared it for them to make it in the morning, but they didn't want these young people to open their mouths in unison and say that they had eaten in the morning.

Even Ma Er, who has always been naughty, said that he ate it, but He Mai and the old lady were at a loss.

Yang Liulang saw that they had prepared porridge and rice in the morning, and they hadn't cooked it yet, so he said, "They really ate it, and these foods will be saved for noon." ”

"Hey, that's done!" Qin agreed, and hurriedly cleaned up the stove with He Mai and left it for the young people to use.

Yesterday, the young people ate three meals of the Hemai family, their stomachs were comfortable, and they felt that they were too good to eat and were sorry for the ancestors and grandchildren of the Hemai Qin family, so they collectively summed it up and decided to put up walls on all sides of the Hemai family's open-air stove.

It's not an easy job, and it's more tiring than repairing the roof!

"I'm afraid I'll need a lot of stones? How much money does this cost? Qin asked with some concern.

Yang Liulang said: "I know the owner of a stone mill, and the stone used to build the wall is leftover from other workers, not silver. ”

Qin said: "That's okay! But you children don't go to work for two days, I'm afraid you'll also delay a lot of things, right? ”

Yang Liulang smiled when he heard this, "Milk, don't worry, otherwise they won't have anything to do." It's all my friends, and it's not a big deal to let me know. Besides, I'll make it up to them. ”

He Mai said softly: "Make some delicious food and drink for them at noon, cook some porridge at noon, I wonder if they will love to drink?" ”

She couldn't think of any way to repay them after thinking about it for a long time, so she could only reward them with her best craftsmanship.

"Brother and sister, I love porridge the most! What porridge would you make? When Ma Er heard He Mai's words, he hurriedly leaned down from the roof and shouted by his neck.

He Mai said: "I will do most of it. What do you like to drink? ”

"Rice porridge! Put some red date sugar cubes in it, sweet and moisturizing! Ma Er replied with a grin.

"Then I'll cook a pot of red date sugar porridge at noon," He Mai said with a smile, "and I'll cook some of the rest." ”

Ma Er replied to her loudly: "Okay! Then I won't drink water during the day, just wait to drink the porridge cooked by my younger siblings! ”

"Glutton!" Yang Liulang glanced at Ma Er and scolded loudly.

Before daylight, the roof was completely new, clean and tidy, and most importantly, very strong.

As long as it doesn't rain for two days, the roof will be able to withstand all wind and rain, and you won't have to worry about getting damp and mildew.

The stove is fenced off, and if it goes well, it can be done around the dark room.

Yang Liulang set out to build two simple stoves outside the courtyard, which could be used to cook rice.

He Mai boiled the white porridge on the pot, adjusted the heat, added another spoonful of water to the pot, and went into the courtyard to tend the vegetable patch.

Some vegetable seeds were sown in the vegetable field, some of which had already sprouted in the past few days, and the wheat scooped some water from the water tank and sprinkled it into the vegetable field, with careful and meticulous movements.

Yang Liulang stood behind her at some point, silently watching her every move, and actually fell into a trance.

After He Mai finished sprinkling water, when he turned around, he saw Yang Liulang's slightly dumbfounded eyes.

Both were a little embarrassed.

Yang Liulang walked over and saw that the water scoop in her hand was empty, so he asked, "Do you still want water?" ”

"No, that's enough." He Mai shook his head, "These are the radish seeds I planted, and the radish likes to be warm and can't be watered too much." ”
