Chapter 60: The Wolf Howls at Night

It just so happened that there were not enough people in the kitchen, and a dozen women had to cook more than 400 people's meals, and they were busy enough.

"Plop ~ Tom!

Thank you, son! ”

Ziyu in the house, hearing the sound of kneeling on the ground outside, panicked for that person.

The open space in front of the wooden house was paved with stones.

"Hard work is the best reward!"

Ziyu didn't go out for a while, and didn't open the wooden door until Xiao Luo was picked up.

"Young master, your hot water is also ready! Yulan will guard Young Master Xiaoluo. ”

Xiao Luo was wrapped in a small robe, with his half-dried hair scattered, and rolled around on the futon.

Ziyu shook her head and smiled, the child is always a child, take a change of clothes and leave.

When the purple jade head wrapped in a cloth came out, I saw Lamei laying a quilt in the corridor.

"Lamei, can't you sleep in the next room?"

Lamei hurriedly got up and stood up, and said softly: "Young master, the slave is here to keep vigil for you." ”

"No, go back to sleep next door, so as not to disturb the peace of Young Master Ben.

Sleep outside, you're not afraid of being dragged by wild beasts to eat, hurry up! ”

The mosquitoes in the mountains are the most ferocious in this season, and Ziyu does not have the habit of keeping vigil, and will not have this habit in two lifetimes.

Lamei shook in the dark, looked at the dark valley, and finally obediently hugged the quilt back to the next room.

"Lamei, why did you come back, shouldn't you keep vigil?" Liu Ye's voice was a little cold.

[There are really no rules at all!] 】

"Sister-in-law Liu, the young master didn't let the slave keep vigil, saying that it would disturb his peace."

Lamei, who entered the wooden house, exhaled softly, she was afraid of being alone outside.

Thinking of something unclean, Lamei hugged the quilt and quickly lay down in the corner, retracted into the quilt and covered her head.

Liu Ye, who was in charge of the oil lamp, blew out the oil lamp, and she knew that the young master was a man, and it was not easy to control the affairs of his subordinates.

After the house is built, some rules should be erected, and people have to be measured at the moment.

Lying in a safe wooden house, the sleep quality of a woman in a room instantly improves.

The starlight, accompanied by the breeze, penetrated through the cracks in the windows and shone on the sleeping faces.

Ziyu, whose hair hadn't dried for a while, spread out her limbs comfortably, and pressed one hand and one foot on the restless Xiaoluo quilt, making him unable to move.

"Brother, let's play!" Xiao Luo, who couldn't move, said pitifully.

Ziyu pulled out the pillow and fanned out the oil lamp in the corner three or two, deliberately snoring.

When a shallow breathing sound sounded in the wooden house, Ziyu let go of her hands and feet.

[The little fart child really can't be praised, and as soon as he praises it, he will be exposed. 】

"Wow~Wow"

Ziyu, who was just about to fall asleep, heard a wolf howl, and sat up and listened carefully.

"Wow~Wow"

When the voice sounded again, Ziyu could tell that it was coming from the cliff behind her.

[The lone wolf howls at the moon, who to scare!] 】

[There's a kind of jumping down, you can't be killed! ] 】

Ziyu touched Xiao Luo, who was asleep, and saw that he was not awakened, so she lay down and slept with peace of mind.

This night, only Ziyu and Hong Feiyang heard the wolf howl, and the others woke up completely unaware.

Ziyu wrote on rice paper some scattered items such as tiles, sticky rice, tung oil, ten large iron pots, lamp oil, etc., needed to build a house.

In order to prevent Feiyang from being illiterate, Ziyu also asked him to memorize the names of the items.

Together with five hundred taels of golden tickets, he gave Hong Feiyang and asked him to come to Chen Zhongren to purchase them after he arrived at Qingyang Mansion.

Ziyu Mu sent the three ships out of Daxia Bay and gave up to Bao Jiu who was left behind.

"Brother Bao Jiu, thank you!

You can stay, save me too much trouble, and from now on you will be the kitchen manager of Daxiabao.

In Dujiang Mansion, there will be a big wine shop that belongs to us.

Bao is a big steward, it's hard work! ”

"Hahaha, I love to hear this, little brother.

I'm also a big steward, how do I feel that people are two feet tall all of a sudden! ”

Bao Jiu raised his head and laughed, the wine shop was in charge, and he felt majestic when he thought about it.

"Steward Bao, welcome to Daxia Castle.

Tell you about our welfare, a set of five small stone courtyards with attics, and then ten acres of land after the beginning of spring. Ziyu threw out the most realistic benefit.

"Oh, why is the little brother so good!

Come and hug one! ”

Bao Jiu, who was overjoyed, opened his big hand and rushed towards Ziyu.

"Whoosh~" Ziyu ran away.

"Hahaha......"

"Giggle......

Everyone was amused at once, and Bao Jiu's arrogant voice was the loudest.

A group of people who had eaten breakfast as they wished, enthusiastically devoted themselves to the transformation of the valley.

Building water wheels, choosing a house site, digging foundations, cutting wood, beating stones, and reclaiming wasteland.

Prepare the ingredients needed for lunch, and continue to explore the path.

There was no one to work in the audience, only Ziyu and Xiao Luo, the two of them walked around Daxia Bay, just to familiarize themselves with their own territory.

"Young Master is so good to Young Master Xiao Luo! As long as you take it with you at home. Cheng Yuanju, who was helping in the kitchen, was envious.

He glanced at Cheng Yuanshu, who was picking shellfish meat, and he was also taking his sister everywhere.

"Don't talk about the master's affairs!" Liu Ye glanced at Cheng Yuanju, who was a little wild, and said lightly.

"Hehe, Aunt Liu, don't worry, I promise not to talk nonsense.

Young Master and Young Master Xiao Luo are very good, they took my sister and me in, otherwise we would have starved to death. ”

Liu Ye glared at Cheng Yuanju, this kid needs stricter discipline.

Heavy labor is repeated every day, and there is never a loss of food for the people who work.

Sometimes there is no wild food to eat, Ziyu will go into the mountains alone to hunt, and the people who work never leave empty-handed every time he comes back.

Pheasants, hares, wild sheep, wild boars, wolves, etc., are all small wild animals.

The movement in the valley is so great that some timid animals dare not show up during the day, and only dare to come here at night to drink.

For the sake of long-term planning, Ziyu did not set a trap at the water source.

The peeled fur of wild animals is washed by rawhides - grease removed - soaked in water and washed - tanned in a cylinder - dried and scraped - smoothed and trimmed edges with pumice.

Several complicated processes will take a soft, clean fur to be obtained.

Outside the wooden house where Ziyu lived, there were shiny and dense furs, as well as a few beautiful bunches of pheasant feathers.

Most of the fur is rabbit skin, and there are only two or three wolf skins and wild sheep skins.

The dehaired boar skin is also gloriously nailed to the wooden wall behind the house.

"Wow, Tiger! Tiger! The young master hunted back a tiger! ”

Cheng Yuanju and Cheng Xiaoshan, who were guarding the valley with Xiao Luo, screamed all the way and ran behind Ziyu.

"Brother, Tiger! Tiger! ”

The bold little Luo stumbled after him, reaching out his little hand to touch the tiger's fur from time to time.

The purple jade with the tiger on his back, the tiger head with teeth on his head, and the body was covered with stains.

The colorful tiger skin was oozing with bloodstains, and the two legs dragged on the ground were mixed with blood and mud.

"Oh my God, the little boy hit the tiger!"

"Tiger, tiger!"

"Young master, are you hurt, put it down!"

"Young master, are you alright?"

……

The subordinates were about to die of fright, and the tiger was going to eat people, and no one was terrified.
