"It's nothing. I'll go around our house a few times and clear away all the messy bricks and dirt piles beside the wall, so that no one can take advantage of it."
There are also tree branches close to the courtyard wall that need to be cleared. They cannot be jumped in by people. If the dogs hadn't discovered them in time yesterday, they would have been in too much danger.
Li said, putting the shovel aside, patting the grass and soil off her body, and washing her hands as she spoke.
"Brother Yan and I checked around the yard several times and cleaned up all the weeds and dirt around it."
"At the place where the hole was dug last night, in addition to blood stains, there were also a lot of messy footsteps. Brother Yan said that there were many people here. We followed the footprints to the wooden bridge and found a bloody rag. It should have been left by a dog.
The guy who bit him threw it.”
Listening to Li's narration, Bai Yunxi nodded. She had failed at their house and would not dare to come again in the near future.
But they must take the necessary precautions, and this mistake cannot be made a second time.
"If it weren't for the cleverness of the dog, our family might have really suffered a loss. Speaking of this, I have to thank you, Mrs. Song, later. If it weren't for her, we wouldn't get Ruanruan."
"Mom is right. Aunt Song did help us a lot. In addition to the dogs, she also gave us a lot of vegetables."
Holding the basin, Mrs. Du added with a smile, "Yesterday I dug a lot of chestnuts from the sand. I will cook them later and send some to Mrs. Song."
Wenyou watched the family get along with each other. While it was strange, she watched silently. Not to mention, although their life was simple, it was much warmer and more comfortable than the place where she stayed.
It's just that there is nothing really worth fighting for right now.
Bai Yunxi turned her head and saw Wenyou's envious look on her face. She couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips,
Wenyou came back to her senses, thought for a moment, and then spoke,
"Most farmers live like this. We only have so many things at home. If you want to make plans, you have to have them."
Bai Yunxi joked with a smile, even if her family were extremely wealthy, she couldn't guarantee that everyone would still be able to maintain their original aspirations and work together.
Who doesn’t have some thoughts of his own? No selfishness?
"What's wrong, do you think life in a farm family like ours is new?"
"It's not all new. It looks plain and insipid, and it's not very wealthy, but it can be fun and harmonious. I have never been exposed to this kind of family atmosphere."
Baiyunxi observed it for a while and then completely let it go, especially some of the customs of this era. If Du Shi hadn't mentioned them from time to time, she wouldn't have thought of any of them.
Du was very good at dealing with people and was more considerate than her.
"Okay, friendship is about coming and going. You can take care of the family's dealings with others, and my mother won't interfere."
Listening to Bai Yunxi's tone, Wenyou was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but curl her lips.
"Aunt Bai is the smartest person I have ever met."
Even the previous master didn't see things as clearly as Aunt Bai. He only realized the truth after being injured all over his body. Unfortunately, there was nothing in his hand.
Listening to Wenyou's praise, Baiyunxi raised his eyebrows,
"I am not smart, but I have lived to a certain age and I should see through some things. This kind of wisdom comes at a price and must be exchanged for years, haha..."
"We don't believe what Mom said. People in the village say that Mom has been a blessed person since she was born, and she still is."
Li took a sip of water and happened to hear Bai Yunxi's self-deprecating tone, so she added with a smile.
