After eating and drinking, Xiaoguo left Zhuangzhuang to wash the dishes and followed Qin Anming to the yard.
"Brother, why don't you take a rest? We just finished our meal."
Xiaoguo originally wanted to stop Qin Anming from digging the hole, but Qin Anming waved his hand, ignored Xiaoguo, and told her to go back and rest while he did it himself.
Xiaoguo wasn't tired, but he couldn't sleep, so he might as well do it all.
The barn is located opposite the chickens and ducks. This side has plenty of sunlight in the morning but not direct sunlight in the afternoon, which is just right for the cows' habits.
Xiaoguo took a shovel, came to the place marked by Qin Anming, and started digging.
After digging about half a meter, Qin Anming asked Xiaoguo to stop, as this was the right depth.
The two men carried a spruce tree, stood it up and poked it into the pit. Xiaoguo held the tree while Qin Anming filled the pit with soil using a shovel.
When it was almost filled, Xiaoguo let go and pushed it, but it didn't move at all, very stable.
After compacting the soft soil, I began to fill the remaining hole.
With the cooperation of two people, the four pits were quickly filled with wood, and the next step was to put up the beams on top.
On the basis of four pieces of wood, a piece of wood was placed opposite to each other, tied tightly with hemp rope, and then thinner pieces of wood were evenly spread on top.
Xiaoguo thought that he would go to the county tomorrow to buy some oil paper and tiles and use them to block the rain.
Then buy some bricks and lime and come back to build the stone trough.
After Zhuangzhuang woke up, he took the cow outside to play.
It is the habit of dairy cows to exercise appropriately every day, and Zhuangzhuang took on this task early on.
Xiaoguo washed her hands and cleaned her body to get rid of the dirt. There was nothing else to do now, so Xiaoguo thought it was getting early, so she turned around and went to look for Zhuangzhuang.
Qin Anming stayed at home and continued to repair the barn.
Benben and Feifei followed Xiaoguo's feet, squeaking and twisting their bodies. Xiaoguo thought they might want to go out with him, so he took them to find Zhuangzhuang.
Xiao Guo knew where he was grazing cattle. There were two little ones following behind him. Xiao Guo did not dare to walk too fast because the two little ones were still small and one of his steps was equivalent to five or six of theirs.
Xiaoguo was walking slowly in front, with two little puppies following behind her.
I didn't see anyone along the way, but I saw Li Zhaodi coming out of the field. She was holding her waist as she walked, and she was holding a hoe in her hand. It seemed that she had just finished her farm work.
Xiao Guo wanted to annoy her again, so he rolled his eyes, yawned, stretched his waist, and said, "Oh my, I slept so well this night!"
Xiaoguo's lazy look is in stark contrast to Li Zhaodi's dusty look.
Li Zhaodi heard it and saw it.
He glared at Xiaoguo and mumbled something to her.
Xiaoguo knew without listening that she was scolding him again, but he was not angry and she didn't say anything out loud, so he had no reason to pick up the scolding, because he was not the one who was angry anyway.
However, the two puppies under Xiaoguo's feet started barking at Li Zhaodi.
Li Zhaodi took a few steps back, obviously afraid of the dogs. Xiaoguo looked at Li Zhaodi proudly and did not stop them. He even deliberately slowed down his pace. Li Zhaodi hated and was afraid and did not dare to move.
After Xiaoguo had enough fun, he continued walking forward with the two puppies.
Don't ask her why she did this. Normally, whenever Li Zhaodi saw Xiaoguo, she would scold her for hours. Although she didn't care, being surrounded by flies was okay once or twice, but after a long time, it would be annoying, at least to death!
When we arrived at the river, we saw strong figures on the rocks by the river. Two cows were eating grass on the grass not far away, playing happily while eating.
Zhuangzhuang had his head down and was busy with the things in his hands, and didn't notice Xiaoguo approaching quietly from behind.
Xiaoguo was curious about what Zhuangzhuang was doing so seriously, so he quietly walked behind him and leaned forward to look.
One little hand was holding a bunch of flowers, and the other little hand was tying the bouquet with a vine. It seemed that the two little hands could not turn over, and they could not take care of one end but the other.
Xiaoguo smiled mischievously, not daring to make a sound, and reached out from behind to hold down the part that had been difficult to tie.
Zhuangzhuang saw someone helping him hold it down, so he said thank you and continued to tie the flowers with a grin.
Seeing that he was almost tied up but still hadn't noticed her, Xiaoguo thought it was interesting and continued to hold her breath to see when he would notice her.
Xiaoguo couldn't see Zhuangzhuang carrying her from behind, and naturally couldn't see his eyes.
Zhuangzhuang's eyes looked at me from behind, and he smiled secretly from time to time. I thought mom wouldn't have noticed it yet.
In fact, he noticed Xiaoguo as soon as she approached him, and just as he was about to turn around, he saw Xiaoguo's face reflected in the river in front of him.
So, Zhuangzhuang sat back in his original place and pretended not to notice Xiaoguo.
The mother and son kept it a secret from each other until Zhuangzhuang handed Xiaoguo the flowers and said, "Mom, these are for you."
Xiao Guo was shocked and looked at Zhuang Zhuang in disbelief, "How do you know it's my mother's?"
Zhuangzhuang chuckled and pointed at the reflection on the river for Xiaoguo to see.
Xiaoguo looked at it in confusion, and only saw his own face appearing on the river surface with a puzzled expression.
Xiao Guo was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He wanted to tease Zhuangzhuang, but ended up being teased by Zhuangzhuang instead.
"Okay, you bad boy, you dare to tease me, wait and see how I deal with you!"
Xiaoguo stretched out his evil hand and came under Zhuangzhuang's creaky nest, and Zhuangzhuang was afraid of the itch.
Zhuangzhuang tried to avoid Xiaoguo's hand, but he couldn't. He was not paying attention and gave Xiaoguo an opportunity to take advantage of him.
"Mother...mother, haha, mother, hahahaha..."
Zhuangzhuang couldn't hold out for long under Xiaoguo's continuous attack and surrendered to her early.
Xiaoguo let go of Zhuangzhuang, took the bouquet in her hand, put it to her nose, smelled it, and it was very fragrant.
"Is this for me?"
Zhuangzhuang took a deep breath and nodded to Xiaoguo, "Yes, this is for mom. I found some beautiful flowers on the other side of the river today, so I made a bouquet for mom."
Xiaoguo reached out and hugged Zhuangzhuang, her eyes red.
"Thank you, Zhuangzhuang. I am so grateful to you! I am so happy! I love you so much!"
Xiaoguo used three exclamations in succession to express his love.
Zhuangzhuang lay on Xiaoguo's shoulder, patting Xiaoguo in the same way that Xiaoguo usually patted him.
"If my mother is happy, I am happy."
"If Zhuangzhuang is happy, I am happy."
Xiaoguo rubbed his chubby face and said.
When Qin Anming returned in the evening, he had already finished renovating the barn, making it much more refined than before he left.
Xiaoguo went home and prepared dinner. After dinner, Zhuangzhuang sat at the desk and taught Qin Anming, who was sitting next to him, stroke by stroke. Qin Anming listened attentively.
Xiaoguo was sitting not far away, with the flowers that Zhuangzhuang had given her today beside her. When Xiaoguo got home, she found a jar and put the flowers in it.
With the help of the lamp from the desk, Xiaoguo sewed the clothes in her hands. During this time, she had almost finished sewing the clothes.
The styles of her two sets of clothes and Qin Anming's two sets are similar to Zhuangzhuang's, and Xiaoguo doesn't know how to make anything more complicated.
I can finish sewing it tonight, and if the weather is fine tomorrow, I can wash it.
