Li Weidong was stunned for a moment, not expecting Zhou Xiaoye to say such a thing in front of his mother and sister.

Then he laughed and put the chicken leg from his bowl on her plate: "You eat it, I'm fine with anything else."

"You eat."

"You eat."

A chicken leg was passed between the two people's bowls.

Zhao Xiulian couldn't stop smiling.

Having a good relationship between your son and daughter-in-law and a peaceful home is a blessing that you can't even pray for!

Li Xiaoli couldn't take it anymore and threw the chicken leg from her bowl into Li Weidong's bowl: "Alright, alright, there are only two chicken legs in total. You two can have one each, and Mom and I will have the chicken wings. Is that enough?"

"It's sticky and disgusting!"

Li Weidong and Zhou Xiaoye exchanged a glance, blushed simultaneously, and then smiled.

It felt like pink bubbles were floating in the air.

...

Zhou Xiaoye had been sick for several days, so Li Weidong tried to find ways to cheer her up.

He picked wild fruits on the mountain and caught fish and shrimp in the river, and they all ended up in Zhou Xiaoye's stomach.

Li Xiaoli complained for several days about the unfairness of the situation, and in the end, she was also conscripted by Li Weidong. The two siblings hunted wild game together to nourish Zhou Xiaoye.

As a result, after Zhou Xiaoye recovered from her illness, her body was not weak at all, but rather stronger than before, and her face was even more fleshy than before.

This also pleased Li Weidong.

I have to take good care of my own little wife!

While Li Weidong was busy supporting his wife, Zhang Bin wasn't idle either.

Under his leadership, all 33 households in Taohuayu who signed contracts, each with two greenhouses, have set up their own greenhouses.

Rows of greenhouses stand neatly in the fields, perfectly orderly, a sight that brings joy.

But the farmers on Tiger's side haven't made any move.

After the agreement was reached, the farmers on both sides worked with great enthusiasm, preparing the fields for building the sheds, cutting bamboo and shaving bamboo strips, and even buying plastic film for the sheds.

But in the blink of an eye, the greenhouses on Li Weidong's side were all set up, while Hu Zi's side remained unchanged.

Piles of bamboo strips lying in the fields even exude a sense of desolation.

Seeing that the farmers who had signed contracts with Li Weidong had already set up their greenhouses, everyone became restless and headed straight to Hu Zi's house demanding an explanation.

"Tiger, when are we going to build this greenhouse?"

"Li Weidong's greenhouses are all set up, why haven't we started work yet?"

"I've already shaved the bamboo strips, so let me know when you're going to set up the shed!"

"We've never built a tent before, so how do we build one? You have to give us some guidelines, right?"

In no time, the threshold of Tiger's house was almost worn down by people walking all over it.

Tiger managed to stall for a few days, but eventually he couldn't keep it up any longer.

Wang Dahua grew impatient: "Tiger, if this shed isn't set up soon, people will come knocking on our door to cause trouble. Stop thinking about playing all day long!"

"Was it just me thinking of having fun?!"

Tiger roared, scratched his head impatiently, and couldn't help but sigh.

When he said he wanted to lead everyone to grow mushrooms, it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. He thought that if Li Weidong could make money, then he certainly could too.

But in reality, when it came to actually taking action, he really didn't know what to do.

When he was growing mushrooms with Li Weidong, Li Weidong took care of everything.

Even when it came to setting up the greenhouse, he used illness as an excuse to avoid it. How could he possibly know anything about these things?

Now that the villagers have come to his door, he knows that he can just stall for a few days. If he drags it out any longer and things really get out of hand, he'll be in big trouble!

Most importantly, he also wanted to put all his effort into making a big splash and crush Li Weidong.

After thinking it over, Tiger slammed his fist on the table: "Let's do it, let's do it tomorrow!"

That night, he changed into black clothes and sneaked out of the house.

He needs to go to Li Weidong's farmer's greenhouse to study and explore it thoroughly before he can start construction.

However, since every household kept a dog, the dog spotted them before they even got close and chased them for miles.

"Damn it, I don't care anymore!"

Tiger limped home, gritting his teeth and snarling, "It's just setting up a shed! I refuse to believe I can't get it done without you, Li Weidong!"

The next morning, he spread the word that he would instruct everyone on how to build sheds and invite all the farmers who were growing mushrooms with him to come to his house to learn.

Upon hearing that they could finally start work, everyone rushed over without hesitation.

Tiger demonstrated in his mushroom shed: "Everyone watch carefully, I'll only teach you once..."

"Tiger, aren't you going to help?"

Someone exclaimed, "Li Weidong specifically hired technicians to help build it, going door-to-door to assist!"

"Why do you only teach but not help?"

The others echoed his sentiments, looking at Tiger with skepticism.

Tiger got anxious and quickly said, "How many people does Li Weidong have? How many people work for me? I'm just one person. If everyone is waiting for me to do it, how long will it take?"

"Besides, I did everything myself, what could you possibly learn? I'll teach you how to build a shed, that's a skill in itself, and it's never a bad thing to learn more skills!"

He then glared at her and said, "Anyway, I'm only teaching you the method, not helping you build the shed. If you're not happy about it, then go find Li Weidong!"

"Go find his four-cent-a-pound stuff, I won't stop you!"

As soon as he said that, everyone immediately shut up.

After all, it's uncertain whether Li Weidong would even agree to take them in now, let alone the price.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Hu Zi nodded in satisfaction: "That's right. Watch carefully, I'll teach you how to build the shed. You can build it yourselves when you get back. If you don't understand anything, come and ask me, okay?"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Tiger then began to teach in a seemingly serious manner.

It's called teaching, but in reality, it's just dismantling your own mushroom shed and mimicking what you see in it.

"Watch closely, the bamboo strips need to be inserted like this, and the pillars for the shed, you need to remember the positions of everything."

"The membrane also needs to be stretched taut. For this kind of mushroom, the most important factors are temperature and environment. If even the slightest mistake is made, the mushroom won't grow well..."

Tiger spoke more and more fluently, and at first glance, he really did sound quite convincing.

The farmers listened attentively, and after a day of learning, they went back to set up their sheds.

None of them had ever done anything like this before, and at first they couldn't even set up the shed, so they had to ask Tiger for help.

Tiger didn't understand either, so he could only quietly get up in the middle of the night and dismantle his own two mushroom sheds to roughly figure out the pattern before helping other farmers build sheds.

They did help, but the greenhouse they built was... well, let's just say it wasn't perfect.

Li Weidong went outside and glanced around before bursting out laughing: "Tiger, is this the tent you built?"

"Are you sure you want to use these greenhouses to grow mushrooms?!"
