Reborn in ancient times: I will make my family rich

Chapter 20 The house was built successfully

Gu Yanzhou originally thought that Jiang Nan would be able to overcome his psychological reaction and bring the snake back, and that he would be able to accept the snake meat, but he didn't expect Jiang Nan to have such a big reaction.

"I'm fine, go eat now, the meat will be cold soon."

Gu Yanzhou stopped pushing it to Jiang Nan and picked up the snake meat himself and started eating it gracefully.

Jiang Nan looked at the three people who were eating happily. She also wanted to eat meat, chicken and pork, but definitely not snake meat.

After dinner, Jiang Bei took the initiative to take charge of washing the dishes.

Jiang Nan wanted to take advantage of the evening to build the frame of the house.

There are seven tree trunks in total. Jiang Nan determined the location on the ground based on Gu Yanzhou's improved house layout, and began to dig holes in the ground, then fix the sticks in the soil.

Without any tools, the kitchen knife became a universal tool. Gu Yanzhou, who was resting nearby, had nothing to do, so he took out the dagger he carried with him, sat on the ground and helped Jiang Nan dig the hole.

Jiang Nan knew his physical condition, and did not refuse when he saw Gu Yanzhou trying to help him. His movements were not large and would not affect the wound.

It’s good to move your body more.

All the big, small and sick people joined in the fight and six pits were soon dug out.

Jiang Nan deepened the pit dug by the three of them, so that it would be more solid.

Place one end of the two tree trunks in parallel pits, cross the exposed parts and finally fix them with vines.

A total of six tree trunks were used for fixation. When Jiang Nan wanted to put the last trunk on, he couldn't lift it because it was too heavy.

After several unsuccessful attempts, just when Jiang Nan was about to give up, Gu Yanzhou stood up and grabbed one end of the tree trunk. Jiang Nan only felt the trunk become lighter and looked behind him in confusion.

Gu Yanzhou was seen dragging the tree trunk with one hand and lifting it up easily. In the dim light, the shadows of the two people overlapped.

"It's really not in vain that I saved you."

At the same time, Jiang Nan also admired Gu Yanzhou's recovery ability.

The two of them worked together to put the last tree trunk in place.

"Okay, I'll go find some banana leaves to use as cover tomorrow."

Looking at the completed framework, Jiang Nan felt a sense of belonging to this world for the first time.

This will be where she lives from now on. Of course, Jiang Nan is not satisfied with just this simple house. She wants to build a big house when she has money in the future.

Thinking about the future life with mountains, water and houses, isn’t this the retirement life that modern people yearn for?

But now the house is only two meters wide and three meters long, and it is very crowded for four people to live in it.

"Children, go to bed."

It took a long time to build the framework, and the people in the village not far away had already rested.

Early the next morning, Jiang Nan heard the noises of the villagers next door. Worried about his house, he quickly got up, washed up at the well, and headed towards the back mountain.

There is a banana grove at the foot of the mountain behind, and it is close to home, so it won’t take long to transport it home.

After working for a whole morning, Jiang Nan stopped when he felt it was about time.

When we went back for the last time, the two children were already up.

"You two got up so early today, I'll go cook for you."

"No need, sister. Brother Gu has already done it." Jiang Bei said.

Jiang Nan turned his head to look at Gu Yanzhou who was sitting by the fire, then looked at the chestnuts cooked in the pot. It was true.

Jiang Nan was happy now. It felt so good to have food to eat when he came back without having to worry about anything.

It was really worth it to rescue Gu Yanzhou.

"Wash your hands and eat." Gu Yanzhou felt a little uncomfortable when Jiang Nan looked at him, so he tried to change the subject.

After dinner, Jiang Nan began to fix the banana leaves, still using the vines left over from yesterday.

Jiang Nan didn't think about repairing the house too much. After all, it was just a temporary shelter, not like he had traveled back to a primitive tribe. When the road in the village was opened in the future, he would still have to hire someone to rebuild the house.

Jiang Nan spent a whole day just fixing it with banana leaves.

The villagers passing by saw that Jiang Nan had built a house, and some of them had already started copying him and cutting wood to build the house in the afternoon.

After all, no one knows when the road in the village will be accessible.

But there is a little privacy now. Jiang Nan looks at the fruits of his labor with satisfaction.

The house itself was built on the original foundation of the tent, and all the things were inside, so there was nothing to move.

It was getting dark, and the four of them sat in the room, the light from the fire illuminating the entire room.

Jiang Nan rearranged the rooms and moved the fire to the entrance. At the innermost part was a place for resting, where he spread sheets on the hay that Jiang Bei had collected over the past few days.

We spent the whole day cleaning the house, and for dinner the four of us had yesterday's wild vegetables and chestnuts.

Looking at the dwindling number of chestnuts in her bag, she still has to work hard tomorrow, as she has a long way to go in the future!

After dinner, Jiang Nan took the two little ones to the yard to exercise and help digest the food.

"Sister, I'm taking Shuang'er out to play for a while!" Jiang Bei said and took Jiang Shuang to the next door.

I don't know when this kid became familiar with the kids in the village.

Only Jiang Nan and Gu Yanzhou were left in the yard. Jiang Nan suddenly remembered that he seemed to have been so busy with the house matters these days that he had not even applied medicine to Gu Yanzhou, and he was so busy that he was confused.

"Gu Yanzhou."

"Ah."

"I've been so busy these days that I forgot about it. Come in and I'll check your wound."

"It's okay."

"I'm a doctor, you have to listen to me." Jiang Nan regretted it before he even thought about it.

"Doctor?" Gu Yanzhou asked in a cold tone, looking at Jiangnan beside him with confusion.

"That's the doctor. Doctor is the local dialect where we are," Jiang Nan started talking nonsense.

Gu Yanzhou was skeptical.

"Come in and I'll show you."

Gu Yanzhou sat on the made-up bed in the room.

"Take off your clothes." Jiang Nan looked at Gu Yanzhou who was sitting there motionless and reminded him.

Only then did Gu Yanzhou raise his hand to unbutton his clothes.

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, Jiang Nan looked away. He couldn't just watch someone take off their clothes.

"Cough," Gu Yanzhou coughed lightly.

Jiang Nan squatted down beside Gu Yanzhou and began to examine him seriously.

The wound has completely scabbed over, and Gu Yanzhou's injuries were only external to the skin, with no damage to the bones or internal organs. He fell into a coma because the wound was not treated at the time and he bled too much.

"Does it hurt here?" Jiang Nan pressed Gu Yanzhou's wound with his cool fingertips, causing Gu Yanzhou's chest to stiffen for a moment.

"Does it hurt?" Jiang Nan frowned, not missing Gu Yanzhou's reaction.

"It doesn't hurt," Gu Yanzhou answered, looking up and meeting Jiang Nan's dark eyes.

"It's okay as long as it doesn't hurt. I thought your wound was inflamed and hasn't healed yet! Just take good care of yourself in the remaining time."

After Jiang Nan finished speaking, he looked away and stood up. Gu Yanzhou looked at Jiang Nan's figure and felt a moment of loss in his heart.

Jiang Nan left the house. In the distance, Jiang Shuang and Jiang Bei were playing with the children from the village around a fire, and the adults were also sitting around chatting.

"Miss Jiang, ask your man to come over and sit with you!" The headman's wife saw Jiang Nan coming out and shouted towards him.

"Aunt, let's go there right away," he said, as he was bored.

After saying that, Jiang Nan turned around and called Gu Yanzhou. Thinking back to what the headman's wife had just said, she felt something was strange.
