The importance of cattle to the Johor Bahru brigade is self-evident, and the inspectors didn't say anything more.

However, few people were willing to inspect the nearby residential areas.

I want to go and see, but I'm still worried about the cows in the brigade.

Chu Cheng and the others came out when they heard the commotion outside.

Hearing that the captain had also examined them, they were moved to tears.

No one is unafraid of death. After hearing so many stories of houses collapsing under the weight of snow, they are afraid too.

But their identities already made them disliked by everyone, let alone asking for help.

Now that someone cares about their lives, I feel a little bit of sympathy.

Chu Cheng remained calmer and thanked everyone on behalf of the group: "Thank you, Captain. Thank you all for your help."

Although the captain only nodded in acknowledgment and the people inspecting the house ignored them completely, Chu Cheng and his men were still grateful.

Together with my old friends who lived with me, I watched as the house was inspected.

They said they needed to pick all the tiles again and put timber under the two roof beams to prevent any accidents.

Upon hearing this, Gu Chengde went inside to inspect the two aging roof beams and ordered someone to fetch timber from the brigade headquarters.

Then he said to Chu Cheng and the others, "Two of the roof beams are in trouble, but it's not easy to replace them now. We can only support them with timber for now, and I'll organize people to replace them next year when the weather is warmer."

He glanced at them and realized that if the snow fell too heavily, these few dilapidated houses were in real danger of collapsing.

Even if Shen Mu Ning didn't mention the 'change of power', he still had to make sure there were safeguards in place for people.

Otherwise, if a perfectly good person is sent down for reform and ends up getting crushed by a flimsy house in the brigade, he will have to bear the responsibility no matter what.

Chu Cheng and the others were also relieved. It was much better to discover it in advance than to come and repair it after they were all injured.

"Thank you so much, Captain. Thank you so much."

Accountant Cao Hua and Party Secretary Wang Qing arrived at this time. After entering the room and seeing the situation, they were both somewhat frightened.

Fortunately, my old friend was cautious and insisted on having it checked.

Otherwise, if something really goes wrong, not only will all three of them be implicated, but they might also miss out on being recognized as an advanced production team.

Chu Cheng and the others were instructed to move their belongings to make room for the people who came in to support the roof beams.

Fortunately, Zhang Jiayang came over last night and told them, so they hid the things that shouldn't have been there early on.

Everyone worked together to help stand the timber upright.

After the cowshed was repaired, Chu Cheng and his wife felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from their chests.

Living in the renovated house, I feel incredibly safe and secure.

Even though their situation remains difficult, they have hope, and that's not a big problem.

Shen Mu Ning also secretly checked on the cowshed and, knowing they were alright, stopped paying attention.

She's living such a decadent life now, getting up late every day.

After getting up, I would spend time with Lin Siqi researching all sorts of delicious food.

Try all the local specialties from Lingbei, such as sticky rice cakes, sweet and sour pork, and braised pork slices.

Pork can't be bought in large quantities, but chickens and rabbits are overflowing in Shen Mu Ning's space.

Go out every now and then, pretending to trade or hunt something.

I teamed up with Lin Siqi and let her show off her cooking skills. We ate two meals of chicken stew with mushrooms and two meals of dry pot rabbit and spicy rabbit.

If she hadn't continued to cultivate her supernatural abilities every day, she probably would have gained several pounds by now.

She hasn't gained weight, and she's still saying she wants to keep eating delicious food.

Lin Siqi wouldn't have it.

Eating with Shen Mu Ning is great, but it's also fattening me up.
