Meng Wenwu was leading his team to dig soil and level the ground at the foot of the hill. There were more than a hundred people in the village, but only about forty were working, and most families only had one person.

Chen Tan's expression didn't change. She ran over to greet them and pushed the cart back home. Qin Qiuniang had already boiled some water. "What took you so long?"

It's not that I'm complaining that she came back late, but I'm worried about her.

Chen Tan took out a small basket of strawberries and some things given by Li Qiong from the basket. "I met Sister Li Qiong. She insisted on taking me to her house and gave me so many things. I felt embarrassed. Grandma, you should try some strawberries. I heard they are hard to buy."

"Oh, these strawberries must have been shipped from the south. Li Qiong is really sincere to you," the old lady picked up one, tasted it, and praised with a smile, "They are really delicious."

"Grandma, Dr. Yao gave me a handful of strawberry seeds last time. It won't be long before we can eat them every day."

As Chen Tan spoke, he carried two kettles of water and went out.

When we reached the foot of the mountain, we found Yu Hongying and Wu Xia.

They brought a large basin with them when they worked. Chen Tan poured boiling water and brown sugar into it and stirred it. Yu Hongying shouted at the people working to come and drink water.

Those who had benefited from the sandalwood and had been watching the fun without doing any work, were so greedy that their mouths were watering when they saw the big bowl of brown sugar water.

They also followed the people who were working to come over and see, but were scolded back by Yu Hongying and Wu Xia.

The two of them distributed the brown sugar water to the people who were working.

After drinking, everyone felt relaxed and refreshed, saying that they had made the right decision today.

Those who didn't work will regret it.
