Liu Ke reached out to take it, but at the same time shouted to the people in the yard.
"Sister Jing, Xiaoli is here."
Xu Jing ran out of the house in a hurry, her hands covered with dust as she packed things.
Seeing Wang Xiaoli standing at the door, he hurriedly rubbed his palms and backs of his hands on the surface of his clothes again and again, "Oh my God, you are too polite. You are giving us gifts... We haven't done anything yet, it's too embarrassing to give us anything."
Wang Xiaoli shook her head and said, "It's not a problem. I'll need to trouble you later."
After all, it's about the wall, which is physical work and they all rely on it.
Wang Xiaoli looked around and then looked inside through the door behind Sister Jing.
Those who can move and those who are not affected are busy cleaning the villa.
I don't know what the purpose of the fire made of branches in the yard is. It's for keeping warm, but it's in the open air yard, so it shouldn't be used for keeping warm. But if you want to burn something, there doesn't seem to be any pots, pans, or utensils.
However, there seems to be something inside the inextinguishable carbon ash.
The surface was stained with black charcoal residue, and it was hard to tell what it was.
When Xu Jing saw Wang Xiaoli looking towards the fire, she couldn't help but bend down and use a branch to dig out the egg. Then she picked up the black egg and handed it to Wang Xiaoli.
"This is a baked potato. It's a little hard from the freezing, so I thought I'd warm it up in the charcoal ash. Would you like to try it? It may not taste great, but it's a rare filling food."
"Oh, by the way, we'll have some sweet potatoes in a few days, and we'll bring them back to you then."
The surface of the potato was a little hot, after all, it had just been turned out from the inside. Xu Jing blew on it considerately to lower the residual temperature on the surface before handing it to Wang Xiaoli's arms.
Before Wang Xiaoli could say anything, a potato appeared in her arms, and she looked like she didn't know what to say.
Finally, he accepted it while looking at Xu Jing's expectant eyes.
However, Wang Xiaoli still gave instructions.
"As for this fire, you still have to pay more attention to it in the future. The rising smoke will be seen by other survivors, marking their location along the way. Although we are not worried about this, we still want to tell you about it."
After all, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves thinking about it. No one knows which survivors will find the rising chimney.
Whether the other party will have bad intentions towards them will cause them to have more disputes and tribulations.
Xu Jing tilted her head to look at the fire, then understood and said, "Don't worry, we will make a smoke-free passage next time."
"But since I'm busy cleaning up today, I thought I'd just make a little fire and heat up these potatoes. I'm sure it won't be like this next time, don't worry."
Wang Xiaoli waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I was just reminding you."
Xu Jing chuckled, "I know, I know you have no ill intentions. You are right, little sister. That's the truth. We all lived in unfinished buildings before, and we learned how to make fires by ourselves. It's mainly because the conditions are too good today, and everyone is busy."
"That's a good reminder."
Wang Xiaoli couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw that she was not unhappy. She thought they would think she was meddling in other people's business.
Xu Jing and his friends are not unreasonable people.
Besides, what Wang Xiaoli said makes sense.
In addition, they are now rescued by Lin Qin, so they feel a little restrained as they are living under someone else's roof.
Wang Xiaoli chuckled, "Okay, I'll leave first then."
Xu Jing chuckled, "Okay, then everyone will be welcome."
Xu Jing took the lunch box from Liu Ke, looked at Wang Xiaoli and smiled.
Wang Xiaoli waved her hand, exchanged a few simple greetings, then turned around and went to the villa next door to deliver the food.
After all, with the addition of new members, we can’t just ignore Lu Yan.
What's more, Lu Yan helped a lot today.
The little girl next to her helped to mobilize a lot of water and mix cement mortar.
At this time in the villa, Xu Jing looked at the food brought by Lin Qin and sighed again.
I have to say, Brother Lin is so generous in this regard.
They even sent someone to deliver food specially.
There were three full bowls of food in the food box on the dining table.
Although the dishes are simple home-cooked meals, after all, being able to eat food nowadays means you are considered wealthy. How could they possibly give you this?
The other sisters looked at the dishes and drooled with greed.
There's nothing I can do. It's been too long since I've eaten this kind of salty dish.
I took a deep breath, and all kinds of fragrance filled my nostrils.
"Sister, it seems we met a good person this time!"
Zhang Beibei lay in a corner of the dining table, looking at the food inside and couldn't help speaking.
The others were all startled, and then looked at Xu Jing.
Xu Jing smiled and said, "He's a good man."
Isn't he just a good person? Which good person is willing to give you these things?
This is not the one they encountered.
"Okay, since he's so good to us, we can't just live here for free. In the afternoon, everyone should have a full meal and rest. Those who can move and work normally, come with me and build the wall quickly."
Xu Jing gave an order.
The others nodded.
The food in the lunch boxes was brought out one by one, and surprisingly, there were even meat dishes.
Xu Jing and others were immediately moved.
At this moment, all the women in the room were won over.
…
After lunch, Xu Jing brought a few sisters who were not seriously injured to the door of Lin Qin's villa.
Looking at the tightly closed door of the villa, Xu Jing began to hesitate.
Would she disturb others if she came here so suddenly? Would it be a bit intrusive?
Just as Xu Jing was hesitating, Tang Kexin, who walked out of the gate, saw them.
"Sister Jing, what are you doing?"
When Xu Jing saw someone coming out, she hurriedly said, "Ah, I saw you were all inside, so I didn't dare to call you."
"I thought you were worried about the wall, so we can start working this afternoon, so I came to tell you."
Tang Kexin was stunned for a moment, then said: "Ah? Don't be so anxious, you can actually take a break."
Xu Jing waved her hands repeatedly, "Don't worry, don't worry."
"We are all used to it, don't worry."
"I came here just to say thank you to Brother Lin for the meal he brought over. Everyone has finished eating."
"Please tell Dr. Tang to pass on the message. We will get back to work now."
As she finished speaking, Xu Jing waved her hand and walked back with her sisters.
The energy I had used up in rescuing people in the morning was also restored. Besides, turning over the dirt to lay the foundation didn't consume much energy. (End of this chapter)
