Xu Ning put the pig pen on the ground, looked at the pig pen inside and out, and found several weak points: "Sister Xiaocao, this pig pen doesn't look strong enough. We need to reinforce it."

Lin Xiaocao trusts her good sisters unconditionally and will do whatever they say: "Ning Niang, I will do whatever you say."

Xu Ning is a person who does what he says. He immediately arranged work for Huo Yunchao and Zheng Shaoxuan: "My lord, you and Brother Zheng will transport the stones and mud in front of our house. I want to repair the pig pen."

"Okay!"

Huo Yunchao and Zheng Shaoxuan carried the chicken coop to the backyard, received new jobs and went to work again.

Xu Ning took over the work of repairing the pig pen, and Lin Xiaocao was responsible for doing the work, mixing mud and passing stones.

This pair of sisters worked together tacitly and worked quickly and well without giving anyone else a chance to help.

Huo Yunchao watched for a while. Seeing that nothing happened to him, he took Zheng Shaoxuan to the kitchen: "Brother Zheng, we can't just watch, but also find something to do. The inside and outside of the house have been cleaned up, so let's cook. Bar."

Zheng Shaoxuan was surprised when he entered the kitchen and was filled with dishes: "Huh? When did there be so many dishes at home?"

Huo Yunchao poured out a basket full of vegetables, picked out the vegetables that would be used later, and asked Zheng Shaoxuan to work: "Brother Zheng, these tender beans and cabbage can be made into pickles. You pick them out, wash them and dry them." After dinner, let’s make kimchi.”

"Okay!"

Zheng Shaoxuan actively cooperated, and Huo Yunchao did whatever he asked him to do.

Lin Xiaocao specially selected the fattest chicken and carried it into the kitchen. She first said to Zheng Shaoxuan: "Ms. sir, let's move to a new house today. Let's kill this chicken? Invite the old patriarch, Uncle Huo and Uncle Xu to the house for dinner."

Zheng Shaoxuan points

Head agreed.

Lin Xiaocao said to Huo Yunchao again: "Brother Huo, Ning Niang said your stewed chicken is very delicious. Please teach me how to cook it, Brother Zheng."

Huo Yunchao responded with a smile, pointed at the dishes he picked out, and told Lin Xiaocao the recipe he had prepared.

Lin Xiaocao gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother Huo, thank you for being here, otherwise Brother Zheng and I wouldn't be able to cook such a good meal."

Huo Yunchao grinned: "Sister Xiaocao, there are so many beans and cabbage at home that we can't finish them all. Why not use them to pickle kimchi? Occasionally, we can change the taste. By the way, pickled beans are good for stewing fish, which relieves greasiness and removes the fishy smell. Let’s add some fish stew later.”

Lin Xiaocao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, Brother Huo, you are knowledgeable. We will do whatever you say. If there is any errands, just let your brother Zheng do it."

When Lin Xiaocao returned to the backyard, Huo Yunchao whispered: "Brother Zheng, we are so lucky to have such a good wife."

Zheng Shaoxuan was thin-skinned and said with a blush, "We brothers have to work harder to make money so that my wife and children can live a good life."

Huo Yunchao suddenly remembered: "Brother Zheng, you reminded me. I was busy moving this morning and forgot to tell you that the ink sticks we made last time were sold. Father Xu said that the price of ink sticks has been raised, and the bookstore owner He refused to say where he was taken advantage of, so he just paid 10% more. I’ll go home later to get pickled beans to make fish stew, and I’ll bring the ledger and money over by the way.”

Zheng Shaoxuan's expression changed again and again, and he said angrily: "It's probably someone named Zhou who bought it."

Huo Yun looked at Zheng Shaoxuan steadily.

"Huo Di, I don't mean anything else. He's not bad to me, but me, I don't know what to say. Anyway, it's impossible for me to follow his wishes and beat him to death. But

......"

Zheng Shaoxuan stuttered and said words that he couldn't understand. He really didn't know what to do with Young Master Zhou. Why did he put him in such a predicament?

Huo Yunchao thought for a while and said: "Brother Zheng, since you can't give him what he wants, then stay away from him. That's enough for you. As for what he does, that's his business. You don't need to Feel guilty, you don't owe him anything, he does what he wants. If you want to accept his favor, it will only cause him to misunderstand."

How could Zheng Shaoxuan not know such a simple truth? He just couldn't let it go, always feeling that he had taken advantage of Young Master Zhou.

Seeing how entangled he was, Huo Yunchao gave him a critical blow: "Brother Zheng, have you ever thought that the person named Zhou knowingly committed the crime? He just calculated your tolerance for him and deliberately treated you like this? Just to make you Soft-hearted? This is just a trick on his part."

Zheng Shaoxuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly slapped his cheek. The burning pain brought him back to reality.

The man surnamed Zhou has been showing off since he was a child and using cruel tricks to deal with him. He must not be soft-hearted!

From the corner of his eye, Huo Yunchao saw that Zheng Shaoxuan lost his entangled expression and tugged at the corner of his mouth: If he had to tell the truth, the person named Zhou would be a rotten peach blossom! I rushed to give him money, why wouldn't he want it? Don't take advantage of me, bastard!

However, Zheng Shaoxuan received an orthodox gentleman's education, which was different from him.

Xu Ning and Lin Xiaocao repaired the pig pen and built a chicken pen next to it. They did a good job of disinfection before putting the pigs and chickens into the pen.

Huo Yunchao only had to do these things in order to cook a meal. The two sisters were very efficient at work.

Huo Yunchao specially came from the stove

He came out of the room; "Ning Niang, you go home and change into clean clothes, and invite Father Xu over. We just need the last dish of fish stew."

Xu Ning's body was covered with dust, and she didn't let Huo Yunchao get close to her. She kept a distance of half a meter, and turned around and left after receiving the order.

Huo Yunchao watched her coldly leaving, shaking his head and laughing.

The Zheng family's housewarming banquet had a rich menu, including boiled chicken, stewed fish, seasonal vegetables stir-fried with meat oil, and a generous portion of steamed rice.

The old patriarch, Huo Tianxiang and Xu Tutu were the guests invited by Zheng Shaoxuan personally. The three elders took good care of him and Lin Xiaocao. He took this opportunity to express his gratitude to the three of them. Obviously he didn't If you know how to drink, you will drink until your face turns red.

Zheng Shaoxuan's straightforward and sincere gratitude made the old patriarch feel very pleased. With the good mood and the delicious food, the old man accidentally overstuffed himself.

Huo Yunzhao happily took out the hawthorn slices from his pocket and distributed them one by one: "Come, come, come, the sweet and sour hawthorn slices, which are good for digestion, are all welcome."

The old patriarch's eyes lit up: "These hawthorn slices are very delicious. They are more delicious than the candied fruits sold in the shops in the city. Chao'er, is this what you figured out?"

Huo Yunchao stuffed all the hawthorn slices in his pocket to the old patriarch and promised: "Old patriarch, you like to eat, I will make more to honor you next time."

The old patriarch laughed and said, "That's great. Chao'er is so filial. I'm getting older, and the food I eat doesn't taste as good as when I was young. I can't do it if I don't accept old age."

After chatting for a while, the old patriarch asked the bamboo soaking in the river: "Chao'er, when do you plan to make bamboo paper?"

Huo Yunchao was often asked about making bamboo paper, and he patiently explained: "Old people

Long, the bamboo hasn’t been soaked yet, so making bamboo paper is too troublesome now. After harvesting the rice and wheat, the tribesmen will be free to do the work. The bamboo paper process is too complicated and requires a lot of manpower. "

The old patriarch stopped beating around the bush and went straight to the point: "Chao'er, tell me the truth. Last time you asked people from other villages to learn Maihao and asked people from other villages to help with the work, in case this bamboo paper craft was spread to other people. what to do?"
