Song Qingyun was waiting for Xia Weian to come back in the room. Seeing that Xia Weian looked tired, Song Qingyun stepped forward and gently held his hand.

"For peace."

"It's okay." Xia Weian told Song Qingyun what happened last night and how he dealt with Tu Ya.

Song Qingyun only felt resentment towards Tu Ya, without a trace of sympathy. He said in a cold voice, "Serves you right."

The two of them did not continue the topic of Tu Ya.

"Where are the children?" Xia Weian asked.

"Brother Sui took them to the river to study, and it was a bit noisy working in the backyard." Song Qingyun responded in a gentle voice.

"Zhiyao and the others didn't sleep well last night. Why are they studying so early?" Xia Weian felt sorry for his daughters.

"That's what I said too. Zhiyao said it was okay, and the other kids also had to go study, so I asked Brother Sui to take them."

"Don't worry about the children for now. You have been busy all night and have just done some work. Close the door and take a bath in the space. When you feel comfortable, come back to sleep." Song Qingyun gently shook Xia Weian's hand.

Xia Weian hugged Song Qingyun in his arms.

"Sister Yun, after we finish building the house, let's recall the key moments of our past lives. We can't just accept things like this anymore."

"I don't even dare to think about what would have happened if Zhiyao hadn't told us about Tuya looking for her."

Song Qingyun tightened his grip around Xia Weian and said, "Okay."

Xia Weian looked at Song Qingyun's determined gaze and felt at ease.

After being reborn, the two of them worked tirelessly, but relaxed their vigilance against danger.

Song Qingyun patted Xia Weian on the back, signaling him to relax first.

Xia Weian smiled, saw Song Qingyun out, closed the door and entered the space.

Song Qingyun sat in the rocking chair with a distant look on his face.

"Hello, I'm looking for Comrade Song Qingyun." A young man's voice came from the door.

"Hello, comrade. I'm Song Qingyun. What can I do for you?" Song Qingyun stood up and asked.

"Hello, Comrade Song. I was arranged by Comrade Lu Zhe. This is for Mr. Sui." The man strode forward and handed an envelope to Song Qingyun first.

"Okay, do you need me to call Brother Sui back?" Song Qingyun asked, "He's by the river."

"No need. I have a mission and will be leaving soon. Comrade Song, please pass it on for me. Comrade Lu Zhe asked me to bring this to you." The man handed over another small package.

"For me?" Song Qingyun looked at the small package, slightly stunned.

"Yes, Comrade Song, I have something to do, so I'll leave first." After the man said that, he turned around and strode away.

Before Song Qingyun could ask what this was, the person had already disappeared.

Song Qingyun sat in the rocking chair and opened the small package. Inside the package was a waist protector and a short letter.

The words on the letter are vigorous and powerful.

Comrade Song:

Show your confidence.

This is a waist protector, I hope it helps you.

Lu Zhe.

Song Qingyun looked at the waist protector in his hand. This thing was not common in this era and could not be bought even if he had money.

This thing is very suitable for her now.

Song Qingyun hesitated for a moment, but decided to accept Lu Zhe's kindness.

Song Qingyun was planning to think of a return gift as a courtesy.

When Xia Weian woke up from a nap, he found his wife busy in the kitchen.

He strode forward hurriedly, "Sister Yun, take a break, I'll do it."

Song Qingyun smiled at him and said, "I didn't do anything except for Aunt Gen's help."

"Your waist..."

Song Qingyun pointed to his waist and said, "After wearing the waist brace, I feel that my movements are much more convenient. I don't feel any pain when I walk faster."

"Where did you get the waist protector?" Xia Weian asked.

"Uncle Lu Lu had his comrades deliver it."

Xia Weian's eyes darkened. This Lu Zhe is quite considerate...

"Even with a back brace, you can't stand for too long. You still need to rest more. I'll do it, you take a break."

Aunt Gen looked at the young couple interacting with each other and said with a smile, "Why don't you both go and rest, I'll do it."

The three of them laughed and the atmosphere was very good.

"I'll go rest for a while. Thank you for your hard work, Aunt Gen."

"Why bother? We are all family." Aunt Gen responded with a smile.

Xia Wei prepared lunch with Aunt Gen neatly.

The lunch was very sumptuous, with two pheasants that Song Qingyun took out from the space, and a piece of pork belly that had been placed in the cellar.

Aunt Gen really didn't expect Song Qingyun and Xia Weian to be so willing to spend so much money. While cooking, she said to Song Qingyun, "You don't have to eat so well."

Song Qingyun said with a smile, "Everyone helps with the work, and eating well will give you more energy."

Because of this unusually sumptuous lunch, the men worked hard in the afternoon.

After all, they ate someone else's meat and were paid 50 cents as wages, so they felt embarrassed to delay until the next day.

By dusk, the house had taken shape, but the men insisted on working for two more hours and finished building the house under the cover of night.

Song Qingyun and Xia Weian also decisively cooked dinner.

Everyone enjoyed the meal to their heart's content.

Xia Weian settled everyone's wages, and everyone went home happily. Uncle Gen and Aunt Gen were the last to leave.

"Weian, you did a great job today. You saved us a day's work. In the afternoon, everyone was too embarrassed to stop eating. They all said that the lunch was so delicious." Uncle Lao Gen said with a smile.

He found that Xia Weian had become a completely different person since he left the Xia family, and the way he treated people seemed to have been reborn.

Xia Weian smiled and said, "Everyone is here to help me, so I have to be nice to everyone. If we can finish the work one day earlier, we can also air out the house one day earlier."

"That's right. Shuanzi will have a day off tomorrow, so I'll come with him to make furniture." Uncle Lao Gen said.

"Don't you have to go to work?" Song Qingyun asked.

"It's okay to take a day off." Uncle Lao Gen laughed, "The two of us will go back."

Song Qingyun took out two lunch boxes and said, "Aunt Gen, these are for Brother Shuanzi. If you two don't go home tonight, he'll have nothing to eat when he gets home."

"I won't be polite with you." Aunt Gen took it generously, and the four of them smiled at each other.

Xia Zhiyao and the others were all very curious about the house in the backyard.

Song Qingyun didn't let them go to the backyard during the day, partly because he was afraid they might bump into something, and partly because he was afraid they would delay the work of the workers behind them.

"If you're curious, let's go and take a look." Song Qingyun invited the children to go to the backyard together.

Seeing the two newly built rooms, the children ran around happily.

The kang is not dry yet, it is still being dried, and there is moisture in the room.

"This house will be habitable in ten days or half a month." Sui Chengxiao said.

"Well, when guests or friends come to our house in the future, they can stay in the backyard." Xia Weian said with emotion.

"The house we live in belongs to the children of the owner of the yard, right?" Sui Chengxiao asked.

Xia Weian nodded. "It was the captain who rented the house to us. I called Chengwu later and he agreed to let us live here."

"We should definitely leave a room for them. When this room is ready for living in a few days, I'll move in."
