Shen Qingqian unexpectedly transmigrated into the legitimate daughter of a prominent family. Her entire family was convicted and exiled. Along the way, with rebel princes, invading foreign tribes, ...
Chapter 85 Comparison
Over the past month, the unreliable sign-in system is still not very reliable. Most of the points are given for daily sign-ins, and only rarely are there some gold melon seeds and silver peanuts given as a way to get rid of people.
However, the system gave a whole roll of moisture-proof paper, which is very practical.
When no one was looking, Shen Qingqian cut a large piece and sewed it together with two sheets and some hay. She used half of it as a bed sheet and half as a cover every night. The cold air could not get in at all, and no one noticed for more than ten days.
When she heard that they were going to build a thatched house, she wondered whether she should find an opportunity to do something.
"It's such a simple matter, so don't bother Sixth Miss." Ling Yun smiled and rejected Shen Qingqian.
The sixth girl is indeed smart, but physical work is a man's job, so she should go with the second girl and the others to do some sewing and mending.
Shen Qingqian was not in a hurry. Just take your time and you will always find an opportunity.
At this time, Shen Qingman called out to Shen Qingqian from the edge of the bamboo forest: "Sixth sister, come here."
Shen Qingqian turned her head and saw Wu, Lin, Liang and the Shen sisters all there. She hurried over and saw what was in their hands. She immediately understood.
"Are you going to sew a tent again?" She also sat down and skillfully began to arrange the leather on the ground.
Mrs. Wu nodded. "Because we have to live separately, the ones we had before are not enough, so the Third Master asked us to help sew a few more pieces."
Even if you build a thatched hut, you need to put a tent inside the hut, otherwise it will be too cold at night to sleep.
The hyena skins had not been used up before, and there were still some left. Combined with what Shengze and Lingyun had hunted during this period, it was barely enough to piece them together.
"In my opinion, if it really doesn't work, let's burn some more charcoal. It will be useful whether we are on the road or in northern Hubei." Shen Qingqian picked up the needle and thread and said casually while sewing.
Having coal is one thing, but she can't use it openly in the system warehouse. It's not enough to burn some charcoal.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Wu and the others stopped what they were doing.
Liang said, "But Sister Qian, none of us knows how to make charcoal!"
Shen Qingqian suddenly looked up and almost stuttered when she spoke, "Ah, no one would, right? Didn't Sister Jiang say before that they would burn charcoal at home in winter?"
Liang looked at Wu, who shook her head. "She must be talking about the farmers' traditional methods. That kind of charcoal isn't properly burned, and it's not as good as the charcoal that comes out of the kiln properly."
This was embarrassing. She was thinking of using this as an excuse to cover up the fact that she could build a charcoal kiln.
But it's not a big problem. She is so "smart" that even if she figures out an earthen kiln, it shouldn't be too much.
Shen Qingqian tilted her head and bit off the end of the thread. "It's okay. I'll see if I can build a kiln myself."
Wu and the others thought she was just joking and no one paid any attention to her, so they continued with their work.
Shengze and his team worked quickly because there was a bamboo forest next to them and materials were easy to obtain. In addition, they were quick and did not have high requirements for the thatched house, so they had it built by the evening.
Of course, if we only build the frame, cover the top with straw mats, and surround it with a mixture of leather and cloth, there will be no problem in blocking the wind.
Shengze and Lingyun were responsible for the final reinforcement work. Although they were both tall, they stepped on the bamboo on the roof as steadily as if they were on flat ground.
Seeing this, Shen Yong couldn't help but sigh, "It's different when you have good skills. I will be satisfied when I can have half of their skills."
"Didn't Cheng Yun teach you a few moves? How are you doing?" Shen Jun patted his shoulder and raised his head to drink a sip of water.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yong's attention was immediately diverted, and he said with a beaming face: "Second brother, let me tell you, Brother Chengyun's teaching is really amazing! Look..."
As he spoke, he took up his stance and performed some not-so-standard moves.
Shen Xiao and the others watched this scene with amusement.
At this time, the tents were set up and bonfires were lit in the places where the bamboos were cut. Everyone sat around the bonfires, waiting for the hot porridge in the pot to come out.
The camp was filled with harmony, in stark contrast to the world outside the mountain.
