Cheng Zhenzhu took out an apple from her personal space and took out a spoon.
"Wow~" Liu Tiao sobbed softly, staring at the apple on the bed with tearful eyes without blinking.
"One, dinner will be served soon. You can eat the apples in the evening. Mommy will feed your brother some first, okay?" Cheng Zhenzhu gave him a small piece of apple.
"Yeah." Peng Yitiao finished taking two bites of the apple and closed the door as his mother instructed.
"Oh~" Liu Tiao stretched out a small hand.
"You can only eat it if you stop crying." Cheng Zhenzhu looked at Xiao Liutiao with tears in his eyes and did nothing.
"Guoguo~" Liu Tiao spoke very clearly this time, pointing at the apple with two fingers and shouting anxiously.
What a little foodie! The first word he learned was not "Dad" or "Mom," but "Guoguo."
But she was afraid that the little guy would choke, so she waited until he stopped crying before she started to shave applesauce for him to eat.
After scraping off about a quarter of the flesh, the little one fell asleep and the dishes outside were ready...
With the blessing of bacon, Cheng Zhenzhu didn't say any polite words like "I'm sorry for the poor hospitality" this time.
It seems that everyone is very satisfied.
"I'm so lucky to have such a feast today! Even Chinese New Year might not be this sumptuous!"
"Yes, this time it's thanks to the Aiqing family! Fortunately, you are here..."
At one meal, people from three tables ate voraciously, their mouths full of oil.
Especially the little ones.
They had no snacks today, and they had been running around in the yard, which consumed a lot of energy. They just ate a lot of food with their bowls in hand.
San Tiao didn't even wait for his mother to feed him. He put his little mouth into the bowl and kept stuffing rice into it, eating half a ball of rice more than usual.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Cheng Zhenzhu helped the little guy peel two shrimps.
Gu Zhiqing had gotten these shrimp. He had been bringing them home every day for a while, and there were quite a few left over, so he brought some more today.
So she didn't charge little Gu Zhiqing for his food expenses during that period...
"There's still meat!" The next day, when people heard about the good food at Cheng Zhenzhu's house, they regretted it.
Originally, Cheng Zhenzhu had invited them and they could have had a portion of the meat, but they were concerned about Peng Aiqing's matter and declined to come.
I really regret this!
Especially in the next few days, I heard that there would be meat for every meal, and there would be sugar water to drink when thirsty. It was so greasy and oily that it made people even more anxious.
It's not a whole plate of meat, but it's still meat! What would taste bad if it's stained with oil?
"Ai Qing's family, so you mean to stop mixing, build blue brick houses for the three rooms here, and build mud brick houses for the hut and kitchen, right?"
"Yes." After building a house with a mixture of blue bricks and earthen bricks, Cheng Zhenzhu felt it was not satisfactory and planned to give up the idea of mixing blue bricks and earthen bricks.
I'm picky, so be it. I've been eating meat for a few days now, and I'm quite picky.
Besides, her family is known to be wealthy. Who knows how much money she brought back from her parents' home this time? And she only has 13 yuan a month...
"In this case, there may not be enough blue bricks." In fact, they were already staring blankly at the fact that so many blue bricks could be brought over.
So many blue bricks would cost dozens of dollars.
Now the Aiqing family is actually going to build a blue brick house directly...
Cheng Zhenzhu came up with an alternative, "Can we use a stone?"
"It's possible, but the stones are irregular and not easy to handle."
There were bricks for the two rooms, and some were left over to match the stones. However, it was best to hammer the stones into regular shapes, as rounded corners were difficult to achieve.
"It's okay, I'll take care of this." Cheng Zhenzhu came up with an idea.
My strength can finally be put to use...
On Saturday, Xu Xia, who had been watching the excitement for several days and was ready to do something, saw Cheng Zhenzhu chopping stones at the gate of the yard with an axe in her left hand and a hammer in her right hand. She suddenly became dispirited and turned around and ran away quickly.
"The Aiqing family is so strong..." Several grown men came over to watch for a while and uttered this sentence in a hesitant voice.
Sun Daming's face was filled with disbelief. Last time she carried water, Ai Qingjia said she had become stronger, but she hadn't taken it seriously. Now, seeing that she was really strong!
And, the axe had been chopping for so long, yet the blade hadn't even curled. They had picked up the stones from the rocky beach together; they were incredibly hard!
"It's okay. I've become stronger since I got sick." Cheng Zhenzhu found a good position, chiseled a shallow crack with an axe and a hammer, and then split the stone twice, directly splitting it into long strips of stone.
To be able to do this smoothly, she needed strength. She also relied on her secret weapon, the three-jin axe.
That's right, this axe is called that because it weighs exactly three pounds. This axe doesn't have many advantages, but its biggest advantage is that it's hard enough. As for its sharpness, it's a little sharper than ordinary axes...
Since axes were obsolete fishing tools, a permanent three-jin axe only cost 3,888 sea coins, and she bought it directly with the remaining sea coins.
Now she has 200,000 sea coins left...
"Aiqing family, can you let me try it?" You Yumei's husband Peng Shuilai was standing beside her, eager to try.
"Okay." Cheng Zhenzhu handed the axe to Peng Shuilai.
Peng Shuilai weighed it and found it was not heavy. He then struck hard at the shallow crack, but the stone did not budge at all.
It can’t be said that there was no reaction at all, at least a few pieces of gravel fell.
"Shuilai, you can't do it! The one from the Aiqing family just broke into pieces with just one axe..." The people who were watching the fun shouted and laughed.
