Chapter 170 Neighbors
Some branches of the big oak tree were sawed off, and branches with green leaves were thrown around the big oak tree.
The basic framework of a tree house has been built on the big oak tree.
More than a dozen people from the forest tribe were busy building the house, and the scene was so grand that Ye Li was a little flattered, because Xu Lao and his team only sent one instructor to help with each tree house.
The construction site was a bit chaotic, and Ye Li and the others couldn't get close, so they could only stay a little further away.
There was a rustling sound of footsteps behind me, someone was coming.
Ye Li turned around and saw a middle-aged couple walking by with two boys. The older boy looked about nine years old, and the younger one was a little older than Xiaomu and the others.
"Hi," the wife of the middle-aged couple stepped forward and said with a friendly smile, "My name is Jiang Mei, and this is my husband Wu Liang. Our oldest son, Wu Xiaoyong, is nine, and our youngest, Wu Ming, is seven. We're neighbors who live near you. Look, that tree house."
Jiang Mei pointed, and Ye Li followed her gaze and saw a two-story tree house built of two trees fifty meters away.
The surname wasn't Li, so it seemed they were refugees who later integrated into the forest tribe. Seeing how happy they were now, Ye Li thought, this must be her, Xiao Mu, and Xi Xi's home.
"So that's your home. I was thinking of visiting you after I moved in, but I didn't expect to run into you first." Ye Li quickly introduced, "My name is Ye Li, and this is my son Ye Mu and my daughter Ye Xi. They are twins, already six years old."
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Xiaomu and Xixi also hurried to greet them.
Jiang Mei smiled happily and said, "Hey, what a sensible and lovely child, unlike the two boys I raised who are naughty and make me feel overwhelmed every day."
"You'll become sensible when you grow up." Ye Li said with a smile.
Jiang Mei took the fruit basket from her husband Wu Liang and handed it to Ye Li, saying, "Have some wild apples. We just picked them and have already washed them."
"Thank you." Ye Li reached out and took three, just one for each person, but the wild apples were very small, and one bite was enough, and they were gone in the blink of an eye.
It is said to be wild apple, but it is actually hawthorn.
"Take more." Jiang Mei was very enthusiastic. She reached out and grabbed a handful and stuffed it into Ye Li's hand.
"Thank you then." Ye Li was no longer polite and took them all.
"We are all neighbors from now on and part of the forest tribe. It's only natural that we look after each other."
"That's true." Ye Li smiled. He had a good impression of the family in front of him. Being able to become neighbors with such warm and hospitable people was something he could never ask for.
"Then we'll go back first."
"good."
Ye Li and the others watched Jiang Mei's family walk to the tree house fifty meters away, climb the stairs, and go home.
There is some distance between the tree houses, and they are covered by dense branches and leaves, so they are very private.
Manager Li Yunkai was supervising the work personally. When he saw Ye Li coming, he quickly ran over to greet him.
"Ms. Ye."
"Just call me Ye Li."
"Ye Li, haha..." Li Yun laughed, "Luckily it didn't rain today, otherwise the progress would be delayed again. At our current speed, it will be completed in five days."
"So fast?" Ye Li exclaimed.
"That's not true. With twelve people working together, the speed will definitely be faster." Li Yunkai said with a smile: "Don't tell me, I have to get busy."
“Thank you for your hard work!”
"We should do it."
The people of the forest tribe built a tree house for him so seriously and diligently that Ye Li felt that he would be unworthy if he didn't do something.
