The next morning, Lin Chaodong got up very early, wanting to see what the so-called terraced fields looked like.
After seeing it, Lin Chaodong couldn't help but exclaim, "This is truly a huge project!"
The fault line is only a meter high, and you have to dig it more than a meter deep, then level the ground, and put some gravel around it to prevent soil erosion. It's already quite impressive if you can clear one acre of land in a day!
After all, people aren't machines; they get tired and can't work non-stop. In fact, if they work for too long, they won't get enough rest or nutrition, and their efficiency will decrease.
Lin Chaodong nimbly returned home, pretending he hadn't gone up the mountain, burying his head in the sand and deceiving himself.
There was no way around it; just looking at those terraced fields made him feel tired, much more tired than digging a cave.
Only two caves need to be dug, but the terraced fields cover three hundred acres!
Even after the cave is dug, if there's nothing else going on in the village, he'll still have to help tidy up the fields. It might be a little late, but just thinking about tidying up 300 acres of terraced fields makes his mouth dry and his legs tremble.
"You went to the toilet? Why did it take you so long? Are you feeling unwell? Do you have diarrhea or constipation?"
Hearing the noise, Liu woke up with a yawn.
After she became pregnant, she spent all her time lying down and didn't have to worry about anything.
Yesterday, she suddenly had to cook, and although it was only for two meals, she still felt it was a bit tiring, so she didn't wake up as early as usual in the morning.
"No, I'm fine!"
Lin Chaodong's lips twitched a few times. Why couldn't this woman wish him any good things?
"Oh, don't squat in the outhouse for so long if you don't need to. Don't hog the outhouse without taking a dump. There are so many people in the family! Besides, squatting in the outhouse for too long is bad for you. It can cause problems, like your intestines might protrude!"
Ms. Liu had forgotten the word "hemorrhoids" and didn't know what hemorrhoids were. She just heard the old man say that they were intestines protruding, and that's what she always thought.
Lin Chaodong was obviously aware of this disease, so he was even more speechless after hearing what Liu said.
I really don't wish him any good! I either hope he gets diarrhea, or he gets constipated, or even that his intestines fall out.
"Alright, I'm not just sitting here doing nothing. You should get up and cook too. I need to go dig a cave in Nanling as soon as possible. The village chief needs it urgently."
Digging tunnels is a skilled job, requiring experienced elders to supervise to prevent them from accidentally digging into rocks or causing the tunnel to collapse.
"Oh, then go wash the pot first, boil a pot of water, and while you're at it, clean and wash the wild vegetables."
After saying that, Liu yawned again, and tears streamed down her face.
"Okay, I got it. Now go and claim your spot in the outhouse to poop!"
Lin Chaodong finally returned those words to Lin Chaodong.
She just rolled her eyes. This jerk, when did his heart become smaller than a pinhole? He must be living a good life to be able to argue with a woman like her.
Seeing Liu roll her eyes at him repeatedly, snort twice, and leave, Lin Chaodong touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
He just heard what Liu was saying and got upset, and then he blurted out that sentence without thinking. It really wasn't intentional.
But once those words are spoken, they are like water spilled; they cannot be taken back.
