Chapter 81 Who Are They?
The fire in the wooden building continued to burn until dawn the next day, when it gradually died down.
Because the wooden building was some distance away from the surrounding buildings, the fire did not spread to other places.
Su Ying originally planned to look for a water source today, but she thought, in such a large area, wouldn’t it be much more convenient if she could find a water source nearby than to go somewhere else to fetch water?
She remembered that when she went to the wooden building to look for Bai Shuang yesterday, she saw a well in the yard of the wooden building, so after breakfast, she took a shovel and went to the wooden building that had been burned into ruins.
He Shouyi finished his work and followed Su Ying to the ruins.
"Ma'am, what are you looking for?"
"Well. I saw a well here yesterday. Let's find it and see if it can still be used."
"Okay, it would be much more convenient if it could be used."
"Well, go and call a few more people over to look for it together."
"good."
When the soldiers arrived, they lifted the blackened wood to one side. When they searched underneath, they found a large number of bones.
Although they didn't see it with their own eyes, He Shouyi and the others still felt a chill when they thought of what Su Ying said.
Su Ying remembered the location of the skeleton. The well should be behind it. She straightened up and walked forward, and found a stone that was burnt black.
After she moved the stone away, she found the well.
"Found it. I found the well."
Upon hearing this, everyone came over and took a look, and found that it was indeed a big well.
Because the well was covered with something, even though there was such a big fire last night, the water in the well was not contaminated.
Su Ying raised her head and looked towards the open space. She felt that the straight-line distance from the wooden building to the open space was not that far. Perhaps they could expand the area of the house to this side.
Thinking of this, Su Ying covered the area with stones and asked the soldiers to come and clear away all the ruins. They then took the bones to the back of the mountain and dug a hole to bury them.
"Tian Mu, let's expand the size of the house." Su Ying walked up to Tian Mu and said.
Upon hearing this, Tian Mu stopped what he was doing and listened carefully to Su Ying's plan. There was a water source over there, and if this free necessity was not collected in time, it would most likely be taken away by someone else.
"Ma'am, I understand. I'll make a new blueprint tonight. The original one will remain unchanged. I'll see how to do the wooden building part."
"good."
Now that the water problem has been solved, the next step is to speed up the construction of houses.
For more than ten days, Su Ying and the others worked enthusiastically. Because Su Ying could take out some extremely convenient tools from time to time, the construction was completed much faster than Tian Mu had imagined.
In just ten days, a two-story wooden building took shape. Although some details still need to be improved, it can be used to shelter from wind and rain.
Mother Zhao's eyes became red as she looked at the wooden building. After being exiled all the way until now, what they wanted most was a stable place to settle down. Now it seems that they are getting closer and closer to what they hoped for.
Su Ying was also very satisfied with the wooden building that was almost completed. Even though there was nothing inside yet, at least they didn't have to sleep with the sky as their bed and the floor as their quilt anymore.
Tian Mu can also make furniture, so it is only a matter of time before it comes into being.
After the house is built, what we need to think about is how to continue living here in the future.
Although she had corresponding supplies in her space, these supplies were non-renewable. Once they were eaten, they were gone. It would cost a lot to replenish them. Although she still had some gold in her hands, it would run out sooner or later.
So these two days Su Ying has been thinking about how to achieve long-term sustainable development.
Early that morning, Su Ying went to the back mountain, using the excuse of going to the mountain to see if there was any prey.
After reaching the mountain, Su Ying found a deserted place and entered the space.
When she was shopping in various cities, she bought everything she thought might be useful. Those things were still piled up in the space, and she didn't know whether they could really be used.
Su Ying discovered that there were many small vegetable seeds on the shelves. It seemed that the owner of the rice shop gave them to her when she bought rice. He said that he was planning to purchase some to try selling. After Su Ying emptied the rice shop halfway, the owner gave her a bag of seeds.
She put the seeds into her bag, and also the livestock that she had bought and placed in the space. These could all be taken out today. The old hen could still lay eggs for the children to eat.
After taking out the things, Su Ying walked around the mountain again, caught a few wild rabbits and went down the mountain.
"Rabbits and chickens, mother, rabbits and chickens."
When Dabao and Erbao saw Su Ying coming back with the chicks and rabbit, they rushed over excitedly.
Su Ying put the chicks and rabbits into the livestock pens made of Tianmu.
"Madam, this wild rabbit was caught in the mountains, so where did these chickens and ducks come from?" Mother Zhao came over with a few children and was very surprised to see the poultry.
Su Ying said calmly, "Oh, this one, I bought it from an old man I met in the mountains, and this one."
Su Ying handed the seeds to Mother Zhao. Mother Zhao opened them and took a look, but didn't recognize them at first.
“What is this?”
"Oh, these are seeds of leafy vegetables, which are good stuff!" Aunt Jiang, who was helping, saw the seeds in Mother Zhao's hand and walked over happily.
"Seeds? Vegetable seeds?"
Aunt Jiang nodded, "That's right, let me take a look at this seed..." She grabbed a small handful of seeds and looked at them, then smiled so hard that the wrinkles on her face deepened, "It's still a live seed, it can be used, it can be used. I'll find a piece of land in the next two days and plant some seeds. It won't be long before we can have fresh vegetables to eat."
Su Ying saw Aunt Jiang's confident look and knew that she was not lying. "Okay, then I'll give these seeds to Aunt Jiang. If you can plant them, plant them all. Let No. 1 and the others help you dig the ground."
"well."
Aunt Jiang was about to leave with the seeds in her hand, but Su Ying stopped her, "Aunt Jiang, can you plant anything?"
Aunt Jiang steadied herself and was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "Yes, Ming'er and I have been dealing with farmland for many years. As long as the plants are not particularly rare, we can grow them."
Along the way, Su Ying had never asked about the origins of Aunt Jiang and Cheng Ming, because it was Xiao Jin who rescued them. Now seeing Aunt Jiang like this, she couldn't help but become curious.
After she scattered a handful of corn kernels in the chicken pen, she walked over to the carriage where Xiao Jin was sitting.
Although the house has been almost built, Xiao Jin still insists on sitting in the carriage every day. He says that sitting outside gives him a good view and he can discover any problems in time.
"Xiao Jin, who is Cheng Ming?"
