Chapter 40 With Pear Baby around, we're confident.



"Our family isn't afraid!" Old Man Shen suddenly said. "The Shen family has farmed all our lives. This heartless prefect is trying to cut off the farmers' livelihood. Since there's something we can do to help, we can't just sit idly by!"

The Shen family were ordinary people, farmers who lived off the land and owned nothing but it.

That's precisely why they can't just stand by and watch!

"Yes, that's right, we're not afraid!"

If they sit idly by and do nothing, what will happen to the millions of farmers and ordinary people under the sky?

Shen Laoda also said, "My son thinks so too. The main thing is that this matter was also arranged by Li Bao."

If it weren't for Li Bao, that young master Gu probably wouldn't have approached him.

Most importantly, with Li Bao around, he felt more confident about the matter.

Old Mrs. Shen nodded in agreement; that was exactly what she thought, and that's what she told Old Master Shen last night.

Li Bao also specifically instructed them to protect the Shen family, which further illustrates that Li Li personally oversaw this matter.

Subtly, the Shen family has come to accept that Xiaolibao is their lucky star.

If Li Bao says it's okay, then it's okay!

The Shen family trusted her implicitly.

Old Mrs. Shen asked Lili indirectly, "Lili, what do you think of this matter...?"

As Lili ate the small strips of meat that Yang had torn into pieces, she casually remarked, "Good luck!"

Old Mrs. Shen and Old Man Shen exchanged a glance and both smiled.

The others stopped talking, the atmosphere became relaxed again, and they continued eating.

The boys didn't understand these things yet; they were happy because the adults were happy.

They were heartbroken that their younger sister was injured, and each of them wanted to feed her themselves, but Yang Shi stopped them with a smile.

Shen Jialuo couldn't feed her younger sister, so she pouted unhappily, almost poking the wild vegetables in the bowl with her chopsticks.

Lili found it amusing, took his hand, and whispered to him, "How about you come with me to see the rice tomorrow morning, buddy?"

Go play with my sister!

Shen Jialuo's eyes immediately lit up, his unhappiness vanished, and he replied softly, "Okay, okay!"

Pear smiled sweetly.

Shen Jialuo from Midea even enjoyed his meal.

Lili wondered to herself how things were in the fields.

Judging by the time, the rice tillering is almost at its peak.

It rained and the beans were sprinkled, so the rice has plenty of water and fertilizer now, and it should be growing quite well!

I had originally planned to go to the city to check out the rice varieties, but then this unexpected trouble happened, and I almost lost my life. I had no intention of going to check them out anymore.

Right now, we can only focus our attention on the rice in the fields.

The next day, Lili couldn't wait to drag Shen Jialuo out.

"Li Bao, come here, come here, what do you think of this little bed?"

These past few days, since he didn't have to go to the fields, Shen Lao Er had some free time and spent it pondering things at home.

Two days ago, Lili went to the city with Old Mrs. Shen, and Shen Lao Er worked overtime to get things roughly sorted out.

From afar, Lili saw a large object, but upon closer inspection, she discovered it was actually a small bed!

The crib was made of wood, and it still smelled of sunshine.

There are no excessive carvings; every part is polished to an impeccable smoothness, even the corners of the bed are carefully rounded.

A cluster of pear blossoms was carved at the foot of the bed, which made Lili happy at first sight.

Wow, so beautiful!

Lili couldn't help but squat down and touch the little bed. It had a delicate feel and wasn't very exquisite, but it was small and cute.

When Shen Lao Er heard that his little niece liked it, he couldn't help but smile happily.

His usually modest and honest face showed a rare hint of pride when he heard his carpentry skills being praised.

"You like it, right?" Shen Lao Er chuckled as he showed it to her. "There's even a little box hidden inside!"

Shen Lao Er somehow managed to pull out a small cabinet from the headboard, leaving Li Li dumbfounded.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Lili praised earnestly, "Second Uncle is so awesome!"

Shen Lao Er blushed a little at the praise from the little dumpling: "It seems our Li Bao likes it very much. This is the little bed that your second uncle made for you. I'm glad Li Bao likes it!"

Lili was pleasantly surprised. She had been sleeping with her parents for the past few days, which was cozy but also quite unusual.

But she was too young, and Madam Yang was worried about letting her live with her brothers, and there was no extra room for her to live alone.

If we could have a small bed like this, we could put it in the room so that Yang could keep an eye on it and we wouldn't have to sleep with our parents!

Lili liked the little bed even more now, showering it with compliments: "Wow, Lili loves it! Uncle is so good to Lili, Lili loves Uncle!"

Shen Jialuo curiously circled the small bed and discovered a layer of wooden planks hidden under it. She couldn't help but ask, "Huh, what's under there?"

Shen Lao Er enthusiastically pulled out the bottom wooden board, then pulled out a bracket from under the bed, and quickly attached it to the wooden board with a few quick movements.

With the support frame erected, except for the headboard, the wooden boards on both sides and the footboard were added, making the small bed much larger, extending it by several tens of centimeters.

After securing the items, Shen Lao Er proudly displayed his clever idea: "Look, doesn't the bed look bigger now that it's set up like this?"

Lili understood a little; it turned out to be a simplified version of a folding bed.

"Wow, amazing! Foldable!"

"Wow, Second Uncle is amazing!"

Shen Lao Er put the support frame away again: "Oh right, it's foldable! When Li Bao grows up a bit, we can put this wooden board in, prop it up, and she can sleep for a while again."

Lili's gaze fell on the frame; its structure was simple yet ingenious. Her second uncle's carpentry skills were quite impressive.

"Second Uncle, where did you learn that? It's amazing!" Lili looked at Shen Lao Er with bright eyes and admiration.

Shen Lao Er scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly: "Hey, it's just something I figured out by myself, just some clever little tricks, nothing special."

Shen Jialuo always knew that her second uncle could do some carpentry. Usually, Shen Lao Er would make simple tables, chairs and benches for people to earn some money.

But he had never seen such a unique style before; at least, he had never seen such a small mechanism on the bracket in any woodworking project!

"Second Uncle's craftsmanship is even better than Grandpa Huang's in town! Grandpa Huang is the best carpenter in our area, but I've never seen anything like this in his work!"

Upon hearing this, Lili immediately sensed a different flavor.

In other words, there is no precedent for this design?

"Hey, don't you see this on other things?" Lili asked, pointing to the stand.

Shen Jialu thought for a moment: "Hmm... Anyway, I've never seen it before."

Lili said "Oh". Shen Jialuo is young and has not seen much, so perhaps he has never seen it before.
