Chen Qingshan got up early the next morning and started building a house early in the morning.
The yard is not small, but the thatched house is a bit small.
Chen Qingshan chose to build a house on the side of this thatched house using the basalt he brought back.
Others had to be careful and struggled to lift the aligned basalt rocks. In Chen Qingshan's hands, they were as light as a child building blocks. It took only half a day to build a room as tall as a person...
Qiao Chu asked Chen Qingshan: "What should I do with the roof?"
Chen Qingshan thought for a while: "I'll go chop some wood and come back first."
There is little rain in Feishi Village, so the villagers use mud and a kind of grass to repair the roofs of their houses, which are directly glued on the wooden roof. On top, they cover a layer of bark with fish scales, and use basalt to press the bark.
That’s it.
It is unheard of and unheard of for one person to build a house in one day in Feishi Village!
In addition, yesterday Qiao Chu picked up the earth-burrowing beast in the mountains and sold it for two thousand silver beans. After one night, everyone in the village knew about it, and the ladies came to watch the fun.
While watching, the ladies sighed: This man is really powerful when he is strong!
Look, Chen Qingshan did it in half a day, what it took three or four people to do in one day!
The strongest tree in the mountain, Chen Qingshan had only been in the mountain for an hour, but he actually carried a dozen of them out, repaired them perfectly with an ax, and spread them on the top.
Seeing Chen Qingshan digging out another pile of yellow mud from his boss, and preparing to cut grass and stir the mud alone, the village chief's wife Ju Hua couldn't help it.
"I mean, Qingshan, you can't do everything by yourself. How will the men in our family live in the future?"
Chen Qingshan smiled naively: "I can still do it, but I just want to hurry up and build the house."
Juhua looked at the ladies and said with a smile: "Well, you can take a break from this kind of delicate work and spend some money on us. We will help you choose the most suitable grass and mix it for you.
You'll be responsible for putting it on the roof later, and we'll help you spread it evenly and make it smooth, okay?"
What's inappropriate about this?
Chen Qingshan smiled and agreed, then turned around and went in to get some food.
Qiao Chu had nothing to do and went to cut some tender grass to feed the chickens. The colorful flying phoenix with its wings and feathers cut off could not fly at all, so some gaps were opened in the basalt board on it, making it easier to throw away the grass.
Go in.
The ladies were surprised and came to watch the fun: "Ah! This is the colorful flying phoenix? Why are its wings so bare?"
Qiao Chu explained Baishan's method with a smile, and everyone fell down laughing: "This is really a good method..."
Lianhua hesitated and said: "I heard that the feathers of these colorful phoenixes can be sold for money!"
"The hair you are talking about is the tail hair of a male phoenix. Where can I sell silver beans for other hair..."
“I heard that this meat is also very delicious when stewed!”
"real?"
"That's not true! Bai Xue's mother said before that in the city, a portion of stewed colorful flying phoenix would cost dozens of silver beans!"
"So expensive?"
Before, the mother-in-law was thinking about whether she could have a bite of the meat of the colorful flying phoenix after helping her, but now she has given up her thoughts.
How could people treat them to such expensive meat?
Qiao Chu also laughed: "This colorful flying phoenix is reserved for the children to eat..."
Fortunately, Chen Qingshan was not stingy and made a big pot of noodles. Then he threw the dried meat in and boiled it until it was cooked. After a fragrant pot, he invited the six women who helped him to eat it.
The women picked up the bowls and were about to eat when someone came over smelling the fragrance outside the fence gate: "What is so fragrant?"
Qiao Chu and the ladies looked outside and were stunned.
Outside the door is a woman wearing pink cotton clothes. She looks pretty and fair, but she seems to have not been exposed to the sun much.
This is rare in Feishi Village.
The woman's eyes suddenly fell on Chen Qingshan's face.
Chen Qingshan, who no longer has the red birthmark, looks handsome and tall, with a silly smile on his face that makes people look very friendly.
"This is Brother Qingshan, right? I'm Bai Shu's sister Bai Xue. Is your family repairing a house to entertain guests today?"
Chen Qingshan looked at the village chief Juhua inexplicably: Who is this person? I don’t know him?
Juhua received Chen Qingshan's look for help and took the initiative to take over the words: "Bai Xue, why did you go out today? Aren't you afraid that the sun will make it dark and ugly?"
Bai Xue covered her mouth and smiled: "I came here because of the smell."
I just didn't say I wanted to come for dinner.
Juhua laughed and pointed to the roof covered by Chen Qingshan: "We will finish eating later and will put mud on it. If you are willing to help, you can sit down and have a meal."
Bai Xue naturally didn't want to get dirty, but looking at Chen Qingshan's tall figure and handsome appearance, she hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Then I'll come and help."
Qiao Chu lowered his eyes and said nothing.
Chen Qingshan didn't care: It's just one more bowl of rice, how big a deal is it?
So Bai Xue went back and changed into slim-fitting clothes, and then actually came over to eat.
This kind of white noodles is filled with stewed meat and a handful of chives. Few people in the village are willing to eat it. Everyone thinks it is delicious and praises Chen Qingshan for his craftsmanship.
Chen Qingshan smiled naively: "My wife is very naughty. I don't cook it well and she doesn't like it."
Qiao Chu glared at him: "When did I become so naughty?"
Chen Qingshan did not defend himself and laughed.
The ladies look so envious!
This Chen Qingshan also cooks, repairs houses, and makes money.
Qiao Chu, on the other hand, didn't seem to have to do anything. It took her a long time to cut the grass and feed the nest of colorful flying phoenixes.
"From the Qingshan family, you are so lucky!"
"Your name is Qiao Chu, right? You're a good man! I really don't have anything to say to you..."
"Brother Qingshan, aren't you tired from working all around like this?" Bai Xue's eyes seemed to be full of water, and she frowned at Chen Qingshan with a look of distress on her face.
The ladies understood: Bai Xue fell in love with Chen Qingshan.
After all, Chen Qingshan can do the work of ten people in one day, and can earn the man next to him ten days of silver beans in one day. This kind of man is the only one in every village in ten miles and eight villages!
Then the ladies looked strange, looking at Qiao Chu and then at Chen Qingshan.
Chen Qingshan seemed unaware: "I'm not tired if I cook for my wife. I'm happy."
Bai Xue was about to say something, but Qiao Chu glanced at her coldly: "Are you here to feel sorry for my man?"
"Pfft!" Lianhua couldn't hold back and laughed.
The other women also snickered.
Bai Xue's face turned pale, and she forced a smile and said, "That's what I said, I... I'm naturally here to do things."
When the women started working, they stood on the roof and asked Chen Qingshan to deliver buckets of mixed mud from below.
Chen Qingshan handed it over, and Bai Xue took the initiative to pick it up.
Chen Qingshan frowned: "You can't catch it."
Bai Xue tried her best: "I can do it."
Chen Qingshan thought for a while and handed the bucket of mud to Bai Xue.
As expected, Bai Xue didn't catch it, staggered, and fell down with the bucket of mud...
