There were more than 20 and nearly thirty people in the family, which was obviously not enough. When Shen Nan saw Xiaoye washing his hands, he immediately shouted: "Xiaoye, come here and help me."

Ji Ye heard her voice and ran over immediately.

"You lift that end, I'll lift this end, and we move the chopping board to the small table."

Shen Nan ordered and prepared to lift it, but Ji Ye shook his head at her. The next second, he half squatted, and the chopping board weighing a hundred pounds was easily lifted and placed on his back. He also jumped twice to let the chopping board stand. More stable.

Looking at Ji Ye's movements, Shen Yue's eyes flickered. This little guy looked thin, but he was quite strong, so he was a good helper.

When Shen Nan saw this, his eyes widened in surprise, and he praised repeatedly: "Xiaoye, you are so strong."

"&%." Ji Ye made a muffled sound in his throat, expressing his agreement with Shen Nan's compliment.

"Sister, Brother Xiaoye is quite powerful. He is stronger than Uncle San and the others. He still has the strength to move so many bricks all morning."

Xiaobao Shen Nan looked at Ji Ye's movements and nodded secretly. With Ji Ye at home, when the zombies break out, the family will also have an extra layer of protection.

Putting the chopping board on the two stools that had been set up, Nian asked a few people to quickly bring the dishes over. Sanwa and Shen Nan immediately turned around and put the pot of potted vegetables on the chopping board.

Everyone looked straight at the sumptuous meal on the chopping board:

Potato stew, soybean stewed pig trotters, stir-fried pork belly with garlic sprouts, mushroom stewed chicken, ground fruit shreds, radish soup, stir-fried cabbage, steamed eggs...

Every dish is bright in color, generous in portion, and fragrant. It is delicious at first glance, and most of them are meat dishes. Everyone can't help but swallow their saliva.

Such a good table of food is better than what they eat during the Chinese New Year. The Shen family is really sincere. Maybe this meal is their family's ration for ten days and a half. Everyone feels a little embarrassed when they think of this.

Nian and Xu Qi also followed to bring the dishes, and Sanwa went to the house to bring stools. Everyone was not particular about it, so they sat on the stone stairs and started eating.

When they tasted the food, they were even more surprised. They didn't expect that the meat and vegetables were so delicious, even better than those cooked by the cook they invited to the village to hold a banquet.

It really gave them a lot of experience, and they never thought that eating could become a kind of enjoyment.

After eating and drinking, a group of men sat around on the small terrace. Nian and Xu Qi were clearing away the dishes in the kitchen. Shen Nan brought the fried salted peanuts to the small table for them to eat.

Everyone grabbed two handfuls and put them in their pockets, and immediately went to help build the courtyard wall of their house. Seeing this, Shen Nan felt grateful in his heart.

These people were all honest and responsible villagers. They were willing to help him out of love, and Shen Nan knew it.

Busy days always go by very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it's evening and it's time for everyone to go home for dinner.

Shen Nan nodded with great satisfaction when he saw that his uncles had built an extra brick wall on top of the original wall.

"Now, this wall should be able to block most of the zombies. At least in critical moments, they won't be able to rush in."

"Uncles, hurry up and eat. My mother has already prepared dinner." Sanwa obediently came to call the uncles to eat.

It was only about five o'clock in the afternoon. Mrs. Nian estimated that the courtyard wall was almost finished, so she immediately started preparing food. Now that they were finished, the family's meal was already ready.

"Okay, then we brothers are welcome." The uncles wiped the sweat from their foreheads and stood up and walked towards the chopping board.

"Sanwa, what delicious food did your mother make?" Uncle Wang asked.

Sanwa smiled and shook his head, "I don't know either, but I smell meat. It's delicious. Uncles, wash your hands and eat."

Xu Qi brought a basin of warm water, and everyone washed their hands consciously, laughing very comfortably.

The dinner was still very sumptuous, with vegetables, meat, scrambled eggs, and a pot of bacon. They were all the most common dishes of the Shen family, but they were eaten with gusto by everyone.

Just after finishing the meal, suddenly, there were roars outside the yard.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, could something happen?

Everyone was anxious and stood up one after another. Shen Nan was quick-thinking and immediately pushed the wooden frame next to the courtyard wall over and climbed up with nimble hands and feet.

As soon as she climbed up, a fishy smell came from the base of the wall. Shen Nan frowned and looked over, seeing a cow with scarlet eyes running madly past their house.

Sanwa also saw it, and this scene made him pale.

The cow was huge, with blood-red eyes, and looked very ferocious. There was a broken straw rope around its neck, and it was obvious that it ran away from someone's house.

Shen Nan climbed down and told everyone what he saw.

"That's troublesome. The cow was probably bitten." Shen Yue said worriedly.

"Da Ya, there are only two families in our village who own bullock carts. I don't think this cow is from our village." Wang Li didn't quite understand where this cow came from and it went crazy.

After asking this question, the others also looked at Shen Yue, waiting for her to give an answer.

"I guess they came from outside the village..." Shen Yue wasn't sure.

"Uncles, you should go home quickly before the cows come back. When you go back, quickly close the courtyard door. Don't make any noise at night. It's best not to light lights in the courtyard." Shen Nan immediately warned and went to get a few strong sticks. sticks as weapons for self-defense.

"Okay, then let's go back, and you and your family should take care of themselves." After everyone said that, they quickly left the small courtyard.

Seeing everyone leaving, Shen Nan immediately climbed up the wooden frame and watched them quickly return to the village. He was relieved that there was no danger.

Nian had just heard the noise outside, and learned from her daughter's words that the thing outside was a crazed cow. She was very anxious and wanted to go and see what happened immediately.

"Nannan, what's going on outside? Is our courtyard wall built? Can it be blocked by the ground?"

"Mom, don't worry. Our courtyard wall is so thick that nothing will happen to you. Just rest assured." Shen Nan patted her chest and assured.

Nian felt relieved after hearing this, "That's good, that's good, then we can't go out in the future."

"Hmm, it's best not to go out. You guys, too, it's best not to go out, you hear me?"

"Yeah." Everyone was obedient. The youngest Sanba was also frightened just now and would definitely not dare to go out now.

Nian went back to wash the dishes, and several people stood in the yard, staring at each other.

"Xu Qi, you accompany my sister back to the room to rest. Sanwa and Xiaoye, come over and help me deal with the wooden boards."

The plank was nailed to a big tree that his family brought back from the mountains. Shen Nan wanted to make it into a door, otherwise the previous door might not be able to stop the attacks of those beasts.

"Okay, second sister." Sanwa responded, leading Xiaoye to follow. Before Xiaoye could speak, Sanwa interrupted.
