Qi Zhongyu deliberately showed his hand in front of everyone. On the one hand, he wanted to let Gao Cheng know the difficulty and retreat, and on the other hand, he wanted to give the day laborers who came to work a warning in advance, so that they would not dare to be lazy and cause trouble.

She wiped off the dust from her hands, took a panoramic view of the shock and fear on everyone's faces, and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

After laying the foundation, she didn't go directly down the mountain, nor did she lie down on the tree to rest, but started working with other day laborers.

She wants to build this yard as soon as possible, and this yard should be her future shelter. She wants to make sure that the yard is built firmly and can withstand most of the wild animals in the mountains. It can also withstand the rain in the southern rainy season. scour.

This is also the first place she has approved to live in, so she wants to make every corner of the new home meet her wishes. Anyway, it only takes about ten days to build the entire yard. She has a lot of free time, which can be spent on where it should be spent.

On the other side, Lu Dongfu was sitting in the house, facing the lotus pond outside the window, embroidering with an embroidery needle.

When she was embroidering, she would become very focused, and her wandering mind would settle down. She didn't raise her head until she finished embroidering the handkerchief, rubbing her sore neck, holding up the handkerchief to examine carefully, and then showing a satisfied smile .

This veil is embroidered with Suzhou embroidery stitches. It can barely be called double-sided embroidery, but the embroidery pattern on the other side is more simple. In addition, the quality of the needles, threads and fabrics is average, so the appearance is not so good. If it was sold at the Jinxiu Pavilion in Siyuan County, it might fetch a tael of silver, and it only took a few days for her to embroider a handkerchief.

Sure enough, what the high-level embroiderer invited by Xue Yuan's foreign residence to teach the second lady was true. If she mastered the craft of embroidery, she could earn money to support her family.

For an ordinary farmer in the village, after planting the land for a year, after excluding the daily expenses, there is only four or five taels of silver left, and marrying a wife to build a house is considered a large expense, and it will cost more than ten taels of silver. If you earn a little, you can earn four or five taels of silver, and you can definitely support yourself and your husband.

She was glad from the bottom of her heart that after she was sold to Yuan Xue's mansion, she followed the second young lady to learn embroidery art seriously.

After being sent back to the village by the second lady, she devoted herself to practicing the basic skills of embroidery, and did not reveal her true embroidery skills in front of Mrs. Zhang. Otherwise, Mrs. Zhang would not be so easy to agree to her marriage, so she would definitely keep her at home forever. Embroidery earns money.

Thanks to Zhang's shallow eyelids, it was a blessing in disguise for her.

She gently folded the handkerchief, put it in a wooden box, and fastened the lock. Seeing that it was still early, she went to take out the more expensive cloth bought in the county yesterday.

This cloth was the best quality cloth she had ever bought after leaving Xue Yuan's mansion, and it cost three taels of silver just to buy it, which was more expensive than the cloth she used to sew the wedding dress before.

She originally wanted to buy it to sew a large pile of embroidery, but the cloth feels silky and smooth, if worn next to her body, it must be extremely comfortable.

Although it was not as good as an ordinary coat worn by the young masters and ladies of Yuan Xue's house, it was quite good for a maid like Lu Dongfu.

She slowly unfolded the cloth, thinking that she should be able to sew two sets of underwear, and if there was any spare, she could also sew a bellyband.

She bit her lip in a bit of embarrassment, maybe it was the handkerchief she sewed before that gave her confidence, so this time she was extra generous and wanted to cut out this piece of cloth and make two inner clothes for Qi Zhongyu.

When she was looking through the closet before, she found out that the clothes on Qi Zhongyu were bought from tailors. The quality is very average, and they don't look too close-fitting. They are similar to ordinary villagers' clothes, but they are durable.

It's actually not very comfortable to wear on the body. She thinks that Qi Zhongyu's parents died young before, and she was alone outside without anyone close to take care of her, so she ignored the daily dress issue.

But since he married Qi Zhongyu as his wife, he should make more plans for him.

Embroidery work can be done in no hurry, after all, she hasn't decided what kind of large embroidery she wants to embroider, and she plans to go to Siyuan County to ask the buddies of Jinxiu Pavilion when she has time, and learn about the tastes of rich people

After that, start working again.

The balance in her heart had already fallen to Qi Zhongyu's side, her cheeks were flushed, she cut the cloth into two pieces, and planned to wait for Qi Zhongyu to come back, measure him, and then sew the clothes.

After finishing these, she simply cleaned up the house and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

She still remembered to make some special food to help her grow up as soon as possible, so she found some soybeans from the cabinet and planned to make soybean trotter soup later.

Xianggong is busy building a yard on the mountain, so he must be very tired, and she also needs to cook another soup to nourish his body.

Stewing soup is not like cooking, it needs patience and it takes several hours to boil out the essence. Fortunately, what Lu Dongfu needs most is patience and time.

She cleaned the ingredients carefully, lit a fire on the stove, added water to the pot, and began to cook the base of the broth.

Until the evening, Qi Zhongyu on the mountain looked at the sky and said: "It's getting late, let's do it here today, please help me with the coolies today, and tomorrow I will go to the mountains to hunt some wild animals. Give you a toothbrush."

The laborer, who was originally tired and slumped on the ground, cheered up when he heard the words, and asked excitedly, "Really?"

Qi Zhongyu nodded with a smile, and said: "I am a hunter in the mountains, and hunting in the mountains is my way of making a living, and you will go out to Yuenan Mountain early in the morning in the next few days, and will not return until evening. The amount of labor that comes down is not small.”

"So I decided that when it's hot at noon, I can let you go on strike and rest for an hour. You can solve the lunch problem yourself. You can go back to the county town or bring your own. If you stay on the mountain, then I will share the wild animals from hunting with you. Try something new, make up your body, and it can be regarded as one of the rewards for your hard work."

It was the first time for the day laborers to see such a unique employer, who not only worked with them, but also contracted all the most laborious work.

Although they worked hard today, they didn't actually hurt their bones. They were already grateful for Qi Zhongyu's initiative to help and solve the most difficult way of life.

And the other party actually said that they would have a holiday, and that they would go to the deep mountains to hunt wild animals to replenish their health...

This is a treatment that has never been seen before. Even the old men in Siyuan County paid the same price as Qi Zhongyu, but they were picky and picky. At night, let alone serving food, it would be nice to have saliva to drink.

Unexpectedly, this employer treats them so equally, treating them as flesh and blood people.

Tears welled up in the eyes of the laborers, and Gao Cheng was also emotional. He rolled his Adam's apple a few times, and thanked Qi Zhongyu on behalf of his brothers, "Thank you, senior, for your understanding."

Qi Zhongyu waved his hand and said: "It's okay, you put your things here, and follow me down the mountain. When the sky is completely dark, it will be even more difficult to walk on the mountain path."

As she said that, she stood up and patted the dust on her clothes. Seeing that Gao Cheng ordered the laborers to stand up, a group of people followed Qi Zhongyu and went down the mountain without any danger.

You must know that the mountain road is muddy. When going up the mountain, several people fell to the ground, and going down the mountain is more difficult than going up the mountain, but no one fell down.

They couldn't think of the reason, but Gao Cheng vaguely noticed that they followed Qi Zhongyu's footsteps down the mountain, and that the other party stepped on a solid stone with every step. The stone was buried in the soil and covered with mud and grass It is very secretive, but it is a safer path.

Thinking about it, it was also done by Qi Zhongyu himself. He admired Qi Zhongyu, an extraterrestrial expert, more and more. After a few days after making up his mind, he must earnestly complete the other party's employment tasks and find a way to establish a good relationship with the other party.

Gao Cheng and the others came down the mountain in a donkey cart, and the donkey cart was loaded with goods on the way, so the day laborers came all the way.

But when they went back, all the goods on the cart were moved to the mountain, and the donkey cart was vacant, just enough to carry these extremely tired day laborers back.

Gao Cheng ordered his brothers to climb into the donkey cart, stepped forward and said to Qi Zhongyu: "Senior, why don't you get on the donkey cart, I will send you a

Procedure? "

Qi Zhongyu shook his head and said: "No need, Yuehe Village and Siyuan County are not on the same road. It won't be long before I go back to my place of residence. I will go back by myself. You should drive back to the county as soon as possible, and later. The gates are closed."

Gao Cheng also knew that time was running out, but he was not as exaggerated as Qi Zhongyu said. There was at least one more hour before the gate of Siyuan County was closed, which was enough for him to go to Yuehe Village and then return to Siyuan County.

But the other party said so, Gao Cheng couldn't force it anymore, and after refreshing his knowledge of Qi Zhongyu's physical strength, he drove a donkey cart and bid farewell to Qi Zhongyu.

Qi Zhongyu watched the convoy go away, but seeing no one around, he simply took off with his luck and returned to the village chief's courtyard in less than a quarter of an hour.

She first went to say hello to her second uncle and aunt, explained the construction process of the yard on the mountain, declined Qi Changle's proposal to let her stay there for dinner, got up to say goodbye to the elders, and went back to the yard next door.

After she moved to the mountain, this courtyard should be distributed to Qi Anhao, the fourth master of the Qi family. After all, the other party came to her to make trouble because of this courtyard. Qi Zhongyu wanted to give him the courtyard at that time. It was Qi Changle who tried everything. Reluctant, he even scolded Qi Anhao.

But now that there is a legitimate reason, Qi Changle should not reject this house again, then Qi Anhao can get what he wants, and he won't have a nose that is not a nose, and eyes that are not eyes every time he sees her.

It's not that she's afraid of that boy, it's just that she doesn't want her second uncle Qi Changle to be in a dilemma between her nephew and her son.

When she walked into the courtyard, what came to her nostrils was not the smell of flowers and plants, but a strong smell of stewed soup.

smell good.

Her legs unconsciously walked to the edge of the kitchen, and she saw that Lu Dongfu was stirring the milky white broth with a spoon, filled it in a small bowl, let it cool down, and savored it carefully.

She licked her lips, looked at the stove again, and asked, "Is it good?"

Lu Dongfu was startled by her utterance, but luckily she didn't panic, she filled another spoonful of soup, blew it and passed it over, saying, "Master, you'll know after you taste it."

Qi Zhongyu took it, and drank it in one gulp, only to feel that his mouth was fragrant, the taste of meat was pure, the taste was rich, and it was extremely delicious...

It's no worse than the chefs she ate in restaurants when she occasionally traveled far away. She only knew that Lu Dongfu's cooking skills were good, and she could cook simple noodles with extremely delicious taste, but she didn't expect that the other party was hiding something deeper. , this soup is a must, maybe it took longer to cook, and it is freshly stewed, so it tastes even more delicious than the previous stew below.

She wished she could have another bowl, reluctantly handed the small bowl to Lu Dongfu, looked into the pot eagerly, and said, "Lady, when will dinner be served?"

Lu Dongfu smiled and said, "It will be ready soon, Mr. Xianggong, why don't you go to the house to take a bath and change your clothes, and then I'll make two more cold dishes, then serve them on the table and start eating."

Qi Zhongyu was in a hurry to respond. When she returned to the bedroom, she saw that the hot water had been boiled here in advance, and even the replacement clean clothes, towels and soap were ready. She thought to herself, if she dared to call Lu Dongfu over now Serving her in the bath, the other party must be willing.

This lady is too sweet.

There was warmth in Qi Zhongyu's heart, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch, once again he felt that he was really married to the right lady.

She has traveled to this different world for more than ten years, and finally she can also have a caring person who knows warmth and warmth, and a comfortable and warm home.

As long as Lu Dongfu does not betray her, she can ensure that the other party is safe and sound in this life.

She mixed hot water with cold water, took off her dirty clothes, took a bath with pancreatic soap, and within 10 minutes, she finished washing, dried her body, and put on clean clothes.

Her hair was wet and draped over her shoulders, which wet the clothes on her shoulders and back, revealing the lines of her underwear.

Qi Zhongyu didn't tie a white cloth on her chest. The reason is very simple. She doesn't have breasts, so she doesn't have to worry about her breasts revealing her true identity when she disguises herself as a man in TV dramas.

Her situation is a bit special, the chest is flat and slightly wide, which can also be explained by the chest muscles, even if it is taken off

With the clothes on her upper body, no one would know that she was a woman.

So she wasn't worried at all about the wet hair on the front of her front. After cleaning up the bath water and the floor, she threw the changed clothes into the basin, intending to wash them after eating, and walked out of the room to the kitchen to serve the food on the table. .

She washed quickly, and Lu Dongfu was not slow in her hands and feet. She had already served cold dishes and other stir-fried dishes on the table, leaving only two casserole pots and rice.

When Qi Zhongyu passed by, she happened to see her putting handkerchiefs on both ends of the casserole. One could imagine that the thing was very hot. She stepped forward and said, "You serve the rice, and I will serve the soup. Be careful not to burn your hands."

Lu Dongfu smiled, grateful for her husband's thoughtfulness, and didn't refuse, but said with a smile, "Thank you, sir."

When the two of them brought all the food to the table, Qi Zhongyu looked at the table full of dishes, and while moving his index finger, he also knew Lu Dongfu's hard work.

For her, cooking a meal is even more terrifying than practicing kung fu. She admires Lu Dongfu for having such an ability, and she will be lucky afterward.

She and Lu Dongfu sat at the table to eat. Qi Zhongyu worked hard today, so his appetite increased a lot. He opened his mouth and ate most of the dishes even if the table was full. In the end, only There are still some leftovers from the two soups, which can be used to cook noodles tomorrow morning.

After eating, Lu Dongfu went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and Qi Zhongyu washed the clothes he had taken off.

When the two returned to the house, Qi Zhongyu suggested: "It's still early, why don't we go for a walk in the yard?"

To be honest, although the yard does not occupy a large area, it is richly and exquisitely built, especially the lotus pond in the yard, which is still in full bloom and looks very beautiful.

Just as Lu Dongfu was about to nod her head, she suddenly remembered that she was going to sew clothes for Qi Zhongyu in the afternoon, so she hurriedly said, "No hurry, let me measure the size first, I'm going to sew two changes of clothes for him."

Qi Zhongyu was stunned, remembering that Lu Dongfu had indeed said that she had excellent embroidery skills, but she was a girl with many talents, and all of them were extremely practical skills.

Most of the clothes Qi Zhongyu wears are bought with her own money. She doesn't like strangers getting close to her, so the clothes are either too big or too small.

It's actually not very comfortable to wear, but she doesn't care about it. Anyway, before time travel, all she wore were relatives' old clothes, or school uniforms.

Thinking about it this way, before she got married, she had been living a very rough life. Occasionally, she had to pay the price of blood and tears when she wore gold and silver. She had already been worn out by the cruel reality.

She nodded in response, and saw Lu Dongfu take out two tools from the sewing box, one of which was a thin cloth strip, and the other was a charcoal pencil.

She came up to her with two things, and said in a soft voice: "Sir, you are too tall, you should be a little lower."

Qi Zhongyu obeyed, his lower body was at eye level with Lu Dongfu's, and he saw that the other party was measuring her shoulders with a thin cloth strip. It was already dark, and through the candlelight in the room, Qi Zhongyu could see the thick and slender eyelashes of the other party, and his skin was as soft as cream face.

She pursed her lips and obeyed Lu Dongfu's instructions obediently. After measuring all the measurements, she saw Lu Dongfu put away the tools, as if she wanted to fulfill her promise and went for a walk in the yard to cool off.

She asked bluntly, "That's the end? Don't you need to take a note and write down the size?"

Lu Dongfu pursed her red lips and smiled, "I've got it all in my head, so I don't need to take a pen to write it down."

Qi Zhongyu: ...

She asked with difficulty, "Could it be that the lady has the ability to never forget?"

You must know that when the other party measured the size just now, they accumulated at least a dozen numbers, and the other party only measured one side and recorded all of them, which is too powerful.

Lu Dongfu shook her head with a smile, and said, "Why, I'm just sensitive to numbers. If I remember other things, I need to remember them three or five times."

Now it's a stone hammer, the lady is a versatile genius.The more you get along with each other, the more you can discover the shining points in each other, which is really a treasure.
