The first day of building a house mainly involved digging a pit and laying the foundation. Construction officially began on the second day.
With more people, the houses were built faster. In less than ten days, the two houses were completed, and the thatched roofs were replaced with tiles. Even the toilets were renovated according to Yue Jiuyue's request.
Ignoring everything else, Yue Jiuyue was extremely satisfied with the newly built toilet alone.
From now on, I won't have to hold my breath when I go to the toilet anymore, and I won't have to worry about accidentally falling into the toilet bowl. The only problem left is the toilet paper.
Yes, there's also the issue of sanitary napkins that needs to be addressed.
On the day the roof beam was being installed, my aunt, whom I hadn't seen for over three months, suddenly came to visit. If she hadn't been so familiar with this thing, she would have almost made a fool of herself in front of the whole village!
It's not her fault for not wearing sanitary pads beforehand as a precaution; it's because the original owner's periods were irregular, and she had forgotten that women bleed every month since her period hadn't come for so long.
"Mom, hot water in Doha."
Liu brought a bowl of hot water to Yue Jiuyue's room and uttered this "scumbag quote".
"Okay, put it there, and wait a moment."
Yue Jiuyue lay listlessly on the bed, her dark face revealing her poor complexion and lack of energy.
"Oh, drink it while it's hot, don't drink it when it's cold."
After giving one more instruction, fearing she might disturb Yue Jiuyue's rest, Madam Liu left.
"Sister-in-law, how is Mother? Should we call a doctor to take a look?"
The three grown men waiting outside immediately came forward with concern, and Lin Chaobei couldn't help but ask.
Liu and her brother-in-law had no way to explain it, so they could only give a vague answer:
"Mom is fine, she'll be alright after a nap."
Lin Chaobei said "Oh," and although he was still worried, he didn't press Liu Shi for more questions.
Lin Chaodong was a married man, so he knew a bit about women's affairs. Although he was worried when he saw that Yue Jiuyue looked terrible, he didn't lose his composure like Lin Chaobei.
As for Lin Chaonan, he was in a stage of half-understanding, mainly because he didn't receive much attention at home, so he was able to discover some of the family's little secrets and understand a little about what Yue Jiuyue was all about.
Only Lin Chaobei truly didn't understand anything, and was so worried that he couldn't eat or sleep well, so he dragged Lin Chaonan into insomnia as well.
“Mother, we still have a lot of cloth at home. I’ve made you two months’ worth of work belts. If you don’t have enough, I’ll make you more.”
The menstrual belt that Liu gave to Yue Jiuyue was already filled with wood ash, so it could be used directly.
But even if she doesn't use sanitary napkins and uses this thing instead, she still has to scald it with hot water and dry it before she can use it, right?
Forcing a smile, Yue Jiuyue said to Madam Liu:
"This is troublesome."
It's not that she didn't want to say thank you, it would be strange if she did. People in the countryside aren't that polite; a family would be thanking each other all the time.
"What's the trouble? It only takes two stitches to sew one up."
After Liu left, Yue Jiuyue felt awkward.
She had gotten so excited that her blood was rushing, so she could only quickly change her pants and sheets before lying down again.
Her movements were so swift, as if she weren't the one who had been lying in bed in agony, looking like she was about to die.
Once back on the bed, Yue Jiuyue felt a bit better. She started searching for the same type of bed sheets as the original owner of the body, so that Liu Shi wouldn't notice anything amiss.
"Grandma! Are you asleep? I'm coming in!"
