When Sicheng returned to his own land, he found that his father-in-law was already digging holes there, and Yunqi was following behind to plant seedlings.

"Why did you come here too?" During this time, Yun Qi had been at home organizing the medicinal herbs in his space. Some of the herbs had reached maturity and were at their most effective, so he wanted to take advantage of this time to harvest them.

It is worth mentioning that the cultivation of medicinal herbs in the village is quite successful. The village has now compiled a list of the amount of medicinal herbs that each household has handed over, which will be made into medicine packs for treating various diseases. Once a certain amount has been accumulated, the village will organize people to go out and exchange them for supplies.

Since the village started cultivating medicinal herbs, people with minor illnesses can take fresh herbs to Yunnan Pharmacy to exchange for appropriate medicine. Especially during this period, many households are growing a lot of herbs to treat mosquito bites.

The medicinal herbs in the Cloud Rising Space will not be handed over to the village. Since the space can preserve them, they can be stored there and sold later when the opportunity arises.

"Everything's almost done. Come and help out so we can finish up sooner." Yun Qi didn't mention his worries, and indeed, the medicinal herbs in the space were almost all processed.

"I'm fine. He's just an ignorant person, so there's no need to pay him any attention." After saying this, Si Cheng took the hoe from his father-in-law's hand. "Dad, why don't you go back and rest? You've been busy all day. Xiao Qi and I can finish this in no time."

"Go home early when you're done." Yun Zhiming glanced around and saw that there wasn't much work left, so he went to the ditch to wash his hands.

When the couple was left alone, neither of them spoke. They worked silently together, and in no time, they had finished planting the rest of the land.

Back home, Si Cheng told Yun Qi about his idea of ​​building a large puddle in the backyard. Knowing the future situation, Yun Qi naturally supported him, and Yun's parents, who always listened to their daughter and son-in-law, had no objections.

"Just make sure Junjun and Lele play in the backyard less often in the future." Mother Yun was a little worried that the two young siblings, who didn't know any better, would run off to play there.

"Don't worry about that. We'll add another wall around the puddle later." Si Cheng had already thought of this. It's impossible for the two children to be unable to play in the backyard because of this puddle.

"Xiao Qi, find that high-wattage incandescent bulb later, the one that can run on gasoline. I'll go find Monkey and the others to come and help out. Let's try to dig them out in a few nights."

"Then go and call Yunxun and the others later. They'll definitely be digging along with us." Yunqi thought of his cousins ​​who always followed Sicheng around.

"I'll go call them in a bit." Si Cheng usually liked his younger cousins ​​very much. They were all well-mannered and knew how to behave appropriately.

"Go find Monkey and the others. I'll take Junjun and Lele to visit their second great-grandfather later." Yun Zhiming hadn't visited his second uncle's house these past few days because he was busy with work in the fields.

Junjun and Lele jumped up excitedly when they heard their maternal grandfather calling their names and then hearing their second great-grandfather.

"These two little ones, isn't a whole room full of toys enough for them to play with? They get so excited just hearing that we're going to Second Grandfather's house." Mother Yun tapped the two siblings' foreheads with her hand. You see, back then, one of the two outbuildings in Sicheng's courtyard was used as their playground, filled with all sorts of toys.

“It’s not right for him to always hide in the room playing with toys. Our little Bao is just being filial and wants to visit his great-grandfather, right?” Yun Zhiming was very happy that his grandson was close to his uncle.

Although I only asked a few close relatives to come and help, I didn't expect that almost all the young people in the village would come, and some elders would also come to join in the fun.

Si Cheng found several large rocks on the bank, picked them up, and threw them upstream. Then he took a huge plastic bag from his house, and several people covered the rocks with it, gradually cutting off half of the water flow. In no time, the ditch near the Yun family's backyard stopped flowing.

Si Cheng drew a large square around the ditch, which looked to be about fifty or sixty square meters. Fortunately, at that time, each family's backyard was quite large, and digging a reservoir didn't require approval.

"Brother Cheng, this is too big. How deep are you planning to dig? Will it affect the house?" Monkey was a little worried when he saw the huge puddle.

"Let's dig about 5 meters. See those rocks over there? I'll pile up a layer of rocks around the pit to make four stone walls to prevent it from sliding down. Besides, it's so far from the house, it won't affect anything." Since Si Cheng dared to come up with this idea, he must have made a thorough plan.

"That's a good idea. As long as we seal all the gaps in the stone walls tightly, we won't be afraid of anything." The monkeys were already thinking about transporting some stones to keep at home for future use.

"Alright, get to work! Wait a minute, I'll have Xiao Qi make a barbecue for everyone."

"Does Brother Cheng have any drinks?" Hearing that there was food, Yun Yang thought it would be even better if there were drinks as well.

"Yes, but you're still a minor, right? Don't let Uncle Wu come looking for trouble later." Yun Qi happened to walk over carrying a large jar of plum juice and answered Yun Yang's question directly.

"Sis, I'm already 16. And I even have a drink with Dad occasionally when I'm at home." Ever since Yunyang started drinking, his addiction to alcohol has become quite severe, but unfortunately, everyone hides their alcohol very carefully these days.

"As long as you work hard for me, I'll make sure you eat and drink well today." Yunqi wasn't just making empty promises. Her father had brewed so much fruit wine that if they didn't finish some of it, there wouldn't be any room left to store it.

As for whether people will doubt how they have so much wine at home, they can find excuses. Before the disaster, Sicheng was sending loads of supplies home, and his family had dug several cellars, which was known to some people in the village.

"Don't worry, we'll take care of our sister." Several younger brothers echoed from the side.

"Brothers, get busy, we're having a barbecue at home later."

Everyone who came here genuinely wanted to help. They even brought tools from home. Several people worked together and even transported the excavated soil to the open space next to them. Once the stones are removed from the soil, this area can be used to grow some vegetables.

Many hands make light work, and these people are all in good physical condition after this period of training. What was originally planned to take several days to dig can probably be done in one night.
