The mercenary queen traveled through time and space to ancient times and only wanted to farm

Chen Qingxin smiled and replied, "Mother, isn't the one left for us to set up the tent going to be used to build a house soon?

I want to demolish the bamboo house first, and start work on the front and back yards at the same time."

"Where are we going to put the barn?

What does the tent look like?

It's not like a barn, is it?"

Chen Li had lived in the countryside for more than ten years and had become accustomed to a self-sufficient lifestyle, so the idea of ​​raising livestock came naturally to him.

"Hahaha! Mother, can you really imagine that?

How can it be?

You see, someone will come to build a house tomorrow, and our family will live in the bamboo house again, and we will have no privacy at all.

Is this true? "

Chen Lishi and Chen Qingwen both nodded in agreement: "Yes."

Chen Qingxin snapped his fingers in a cool and handsome manner:

“So, I reserved a piece of land here to set up a few tents.

While the house was being built, our family lived in a tent.

Forget it, you guys don’t understand, let’s set it up now, it doesn’t matter if breakfast is a little late.”

As they were talking, Chen Qingying came over with her brother.

They were waiting for their mother at home and called their eldest sister and brother to come back for breakfast, but their mother didn't come back either.

"Eldest sister, was it you and your brother who cleaned up this land?" The little girl looked at them with admiration.

"Yes, Ying'er, do you want to adopt a piece of land and farm it for fun?" Chen Qingxin looked at her leisurely.

"Really? Then what should I plant? There are not even any seeds!" Chen Qingying's face was full of excitement when she heard that, but then she became depressed.

"Pfft! What are you afraid of? Are you worried about not having seeds? When my elder sister plants seeds, I'll give you some."

"Great, then would you like to adopt one for me, my little brother? And my mother and brother? Would you like to adopt one for yourself, my elder sister?"

Chen Qingxin touched the two little guys' heads and said gently:

“Of course, each of us adopts land of varying sizes according to our own abilities.

Learn to grow them yourself, and we can grow the rest together, okay?"

Everyone clapped their hands happily: "Yeah, yeah!"

Chen Qingxin took out 5 bottles of milk and 5 oil-paper bags, each containing a big meat bun.

The family squatted in the open space and started eating.

"Sister, this is so sweet!" Chen Qingwu stuffed the bottle into his sister's mouth.

Her heart was melted: she obviously liked him very much and was thinking about giving it to her, so her love was not in vain.

"Xiao Wu drinks for himself, and the eldest sister also has some. Everyone has some, eat your own, fill up first, set up the tent, and then go home for breakfast."

"Thank you, elder sister! What's in it? It's really delicious!" Chen Qingying asked while holding a bun in one hand and milk in the other, mumbling something in her mouth.

Chen Li also looked at her eldest daughter curiously, she also wanted to know.

"Milk, this bottle cannot be left outside. You have to put it away after drinking it. It's not good if someone sees it." Chen Qingxin said seriously.

When the four heads are clicked together, it looks quite funny.

"Xin'er, you haven't told mother yet where our pigpen is built?" Chen Li brought up the old topic again.

Chen Qingxin slapped his forehead and said, "Hey, the pig house will be built on the land under our feet in the future, how about that?"

"Puff!" The milk that Chen Qingwen had drunk was sprayed out, "Ahem! Big sister, do you want us to warm up the piglet first? Hahaha!"

Everyone burst into laughter when they heard it.

"You little brat, can you really make random connections? But that's fine, let's press the ground down first, so that it won't be easy for the pig to dig it up."

Chen Li's casual words successfully made Chen Qingxin choke with laughter, "Ahem! Mother, Wen'er, are you and your son here to make fun of me today?"

The family chatted and laughed while they finished the buns and milk.

Chen Qingying patted her round belly and said, "I'm full now. It seems I can only save today's breakfast for lunch."

Xiao Qingwu was still struggling with the bun. The milk was finished and the bottle was taken back.

Chen Qingxin took out the tent and said in a calm tone: "There is no place for everyone to live in the pigpen. There are also some rules for building a pigpen."

"What's the point?" Chen Qingying's eyes, like the sea of ​​stars, were now filled with question marks.

“Our tent is set up just south of the house foundation. Although it is far from home, it is not suitable to build a pigpen here.

Animal sheds cannot be built in the four cardinal directions of the main courtyard.

It can only be planted diagonally or next to it."

"Xin'er, are you planning to build the pig house at the foot of the mountain in the southeast corner of the wasteland?" Chen Li asked, pointing to a long open space running straight from south to north facing the tent.

Seeing her eldest daughter nod, the corners of her mouth twitched desperately:

"That doesn't require such a large area, does it? This piece of land is about the same size as the foundation of our main house. How many animals can we raise?"

Chen Qingxin took out the house design that he had replanned last night and explained to everyone:

"Last night, I thought about it again and again, and finally decided to make the main house a square."

"What is a square?" Except for Chen Qingwu, the other three looked puzzled.

Chen Qingxin traced a circle around the house with his hands:

"It means that all four sides are the same size and all the corners are straight, right?

Oops, I am confused!

Let's put it this way: square, right, it's square, understand?"

All heads nodded like chicks pecking at rice.

She finally smiled with satisfaction.

Then he said, "Look, there are 10 rooms on the north side with doors facing south, but these 10 rooms are divided into two by this courtyard wall."

"Sister, I understand now. You are building the backyard and the front yard side by side, right?" Chen Qingwen said with sudden realization.

"Amazing! Each courtyard has three rooms on the east and west sides, and each courtyard has a gate facing south to enter the front yard.

There are 10 houses in this row at the southern end of the front yard, and the gate of the entire yard opens on the east side of this front yard.

"Why?" Chen Qingying asked curiously.

"To the east is a village, at least 500 meters away, and to the south is a mountain less than 200 meters away. As soon as you open the door, you will see the mountain, and there is always a feeling of being blocked by the mountain."

"Then why does the main house face south?" Chen Qingwen was a little confused.

"That's a good question. The courtyard wall is planned to be built 12 feet high, which is the same height as the bamboo fence. All the doors will be blocked by the courtyard wall, so there is no need to worry about the mountains." Chen Qingxin explained patiently.

As they were talking, a tent large enough to accommodate 15 people had been successfully set up.

"Eldest sister, it's no problem for 10 people to live in the tent. Do you still want to continue setting it up?"

Chen Qingxin tapped his head gently:

"Thinking of what?

Build a smaller one for you and your younger brother to live in, and another one to be used as a dining room and kitchen.

Of course, your sisters and mother live in this big one, right?"

"Sister, it's better to use wooden boards to pad the ground. In case it rains, water will flow down from the mountain and it may be wet." Chen Qingying offered her suggestion.

Chen Li looked at her five-year-old daughter lovingly, her eyes full of admiration.

Chen Qingxin also went up and gave her a pat on the head:

"Smart! But look, isn't this side much higher than the ground?

As long as the water level doesn’t exceed this point, the water won’t get in.”
