Chapter 506 Late Night Surprise
"Hurry and take a look, hurry and take a look." Lu Qiniang urged Xiao Yan, very excited.
Xiao Yan unfolded the rolled-up paper in the light of the fire.
"What did you say?" Lu Qiniang asked.
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "She said everything is fine, and told us not to worry about her and to take good care of ourselves here. She's already made some progress, but I think three months won't be enough, so we need to stay a little longer."
"I hope everything goes well." Lu Qiniang kept chanting "Amitabha Buddha". "Write her back later and tell her not to be so stubborn. If it doesn't work out, just come directly to Qiongzhou. The whole family is waiting for her."
Doctor Hu rolled his eyes at her and said, "Look at you, you're holding Erya back. I believe in Erya. Even if she wants to pick the moon from the sky, she can do it."
It’s a pity that she can’t be given to Hu Rui.
Son, you were born too late.
Hu Rui, who was sighing with regret by him, was following San Ya, dragging a branch as a sword, and gesturing happily!
Shitou and Atai are always silent, just working silently.
Shi Niu had finished her milk and was now fast asleep in A Tai's arms.
Only she didn't know what her current situation was.
When it’s time to go to bed at night, it’s very simple. Each family will mark out an area in the house and cover it with some leaves or something.
Fortunately, Daya prepared a lot of bedding, and each family could get one and spread it on the leaves.
I don’t care about mosquito bites or anything like that.
On the first night after arriving in Qiongzhou, only a few children slept soundly, including the heartless San Ya.
Lu Qiniang couldn't sleep, so she simply got up and used a palm-leaf fan to drive away mosquitoes for San Ya, while silently thinking about building a house.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan also stood up.
"Can't sleep either?" Lu Qiniang asked.
"Hmm." Xiao Yan said, "I think the moonlight outside is very nice today. Why don't we go out for a walk?"
This little house is stuffy and hot, but at least there is a bit of sea breeze outside.
Lu Qiniang nodded.
The two of them got up quietly, avoiding the other figures sleeping on the ground, carefully pushed open the creaking, dilapidated door, and stepped into the moonlit world.
Sure enough, the scene outside was completely different.
A bright moon hangs high in the dark blue sky, casting silver light all over the ground.
The beach, which was scorching hot and dazzling during the day, now becomes soft and quiet.
The sea breeze, with its unique salty smell and moist coolness, blew towards her, slightly calming Lu Qiniang's anxiety.
The two walked side by side, one step deep and one step shallow on the soft sand, leaving two long footprints.
The sand under my feet was still warm, but slightly cooled by the sea breeze, which felt strange.
"Xiao Yan, how do you think we should build this house? I see there are many coconut trees on the island. Their trunks are tall and straight. Perhaps they can be used as beams? I just don't know if they are easy to cut down or how to fix them. I can do the labor, but I don't know the technical skills."
"I can't do it either. We need to find someone." Xiao Yan said, "Don't think we can build it ourselves."
"But there are hundreds of us coming here, and we all need to build houses. We are short of manpower, so we have to raise the price." Lu Qiniang had her own concerns.
"Let's look back." Xiao Yan said in a deep voice, "See if we can ask the common people to help."
"Ah? Didn't they say that the relationship with us Han people is tense? It's better to be cautious about such a big thing as building a house."
Lu Qiniang always wondered if the local aborigines knew some kind of witchcraft or something, and it would make people have wild guesses if they couldn't figure it out.
Xiao Yan smiled and was about to explain to her, but suddenly he stopped in his tracks and cast sharp eyes towards the junction of the sea and the beach, where the moonlight just happened to illuminate the area.
"Abandoned Mother, look over there!" He lowered his voice very low and sounded alert.
Lu Qiniang followed his gaze.
Not far from the shore, in the water about half a person's depth, there seemed to be two blurry figures dragging a bulging sack with great effort.
The sack was extremely heavy, and the two men had a hard time dragging it through the water, causing the water to splash loudly.
Judging from the direction, they are trying to drag the sack into deeper water.
