With a loud "Awooo," Zhongnan agreed. What good would it do if he disagreed with what Nannan was going to do? This second brother was a complete idiot.
"Since you agree, then keep an eye on your disciples and their descendants. Don't let them go down the mountain casually. Also, it would be even better if you could control the number of wild boars. Oh, and what about Tiger King? We should also give him a heads-up." Southwest started muttering to himself.
Zhongnan rolled his eyes at him, raised his front leg, and pointed to the mountain.
"The Yan family's cave dwelling?" Southwest asked.
Zhongnan roared in agreement.
Resigned to my fate, I climbed uphill, and from afar I could smell the stench of the Tiger King. How long has it been since this lazy tiger had a bath?
Tiger King stood up alertly, his tiger eyes fixed on the direction from the southwest. After a while, Tiger King fell asleep. It turned out that the one who wet his pants had come.
If Southwest knew that Tiger King still remembered him wetting his pants, he would definitely fight him. It's too much of a bully. Who wouldn't wet their pants if they saw a tiger standing in front of them? Of course, except for Southwest.
Southwest was still a little scared when he saw the Tiger King, but he mustered up his courage and walked up to the Tiger King, only to find that the tiger was sleeping with its eyes closed.
"Tiger King, Nan Nan asked me to tell you that a logging team has been set up down the mountain. Don't go down there!"
Upon hearing the name Nan Nan, Tiger King jumped to his feet, nearly scaring Southwest out of her wits. She kept telling herself that Tiger King and Nan Nan were good friends and wouldn't eat her.
Tiger King glanced at Southwest and tried to imitate Central South's howl, but what came out was just a roar. Southwest turned and ran away, since Tiger King had agreed anyway.
Tiger King~ Why are you running away? I still have questions to ask. Never mind, if I scare him to death again, Nan Nan will beat me up when she gets back.
Bei Nan urged Village Chief Ma to find someone. The ditch for the wall had been dug, and it was time to dig the foundation. Village Chief Ma nodded hurriedly and made a phone call to the village chief of Chenjia Village.
"Old Ma, our team is doing well right now, so we've split the people into two groups. One group is laying the foundation, and the other is building the houses. Here, I'll give you the group that lays the foundation first. You can handle the building yourself."
"Your business is doing so well! But my people aren't really up to the task of building a two-story building. You'll need to send a few people to oversee things, otherwise you'll be in deep trouble if the project is ruined."
After thinking about it, Village Chief Chen realized that it was indeed true. There were differences between the construction of single-story houses and multi-story houses. If the villagers of Mushroom Village did not understand this and did not grasp the balance, then there would still be hidden dangers in the future.
For the sake of their construction team's reputation, they should still send some experienced people to provide guidance.
"Why don't we have Old Man Chen take a few people over? They're all family anyway, so it'll be easier to talk to them," Village Chief Chen suggested.
"You mean Qiangzi's father-in-law?" Village Chief Ma knew who it was as soon as he heard that.
"Hmm, this old man's skills are quite good, but his youngest son used to be a scoundrel, so the two families don't have much contact. Why don't you go and ask the Yan family if they'd be willing?"
"Okay, I'll go ask. You should confirm the time for laying the foundation first." Village Chief Ma quickly hung up the phone and went to discuss it with Bei Nan and Xin Nan.
After some consideration, Bei Nan arranged to meet Ma Mingchun and secretly went to Chenjia Village to find out what was going on. The two gave the villagers some money and learned some information in the process.
Now Old Chen and his sons have completely separated their property, even dividing up all the land. The old couple still live in their old house, making a living by working with a construction team.
Looking from afar, Grandma's back was already hunched and her hair was gray, but her spirits were not bad. Bei Nan had a good relationship with Grandma since childhood, and seeing this made her feel a little sad.
But this was, after all, Nan Nan's logging team. Given Chen Xiaolong's past misdeeds, Bei Nan cautiously made a phone call to Yan Xiaonan and explained the situation.
Yan Xiaonan didn't actually have much affection for her maternal grandparents, since they didn't have much contact with them. However, since her maternal grandparents were her mother's parents, she still consulted Cuihua and Yan Xiaoqiang.
Yan Xiaoqiang remained silent. Cuihua thought for a moment and then said, "Nannan, it's better not to. I'm really worried that those beasts will follow us if they smell the scent. You know those people have no bottom line."
Yan Xiaonan nodded. Her mother was terrified by her younger brother and sister-in-law, so she was determined not to have any contact with them.
The brother and sister discussed it over the phone and decided to have Village Chief Ma bring some rice, flour, and a small amount of money to help their grandparents, but they didn't need to come to help with the house construction.
Village Chief Ma nodded repeatedly, agreeing that the decision was correct. If those rascals from the Chen family were to cause trouble using Cuihua's name, he wouldn't be able to handle it.
Now that the direction is clear, and the two families still refuse to associate with each other, then Village Chief Ma has every reason to drive them out of Mushroom Village without any consideration for feelings.
Village Chief Ma conveyed the Yan family's message, and Village Chief Chen nodded in understanding. Since he established his own house-building team, he had come to a deep understanding of what truly constituted an "extreme" person, and from then on, he deeply resented such individuals.
Village Chief Ma personally delivered the gifts to Old Man Chen's house, including money, rice, and flour. Old Man Chen didn't recognize Village Chief Ma and thought he had delivered them to the wrong person. When he learned that they were from Bei Nan, he was very excited.
But her excitement didn't last long before turning into sorrow. The Yan family wanted to build a two-story house, but they refused to let her join them. It was obvious that Cuihua had a deep-seated resentment about Xiaolong's attempt to sell Nannan.
Fortunately, he had basically severed ties with this unfilial son. He tactfully accepted the rice, flour, and money, and told Village Chief Ma that he would not participate in building the house this time.
Village Chief Ma nodded, very satisfied with Old Man Chen's sensible manner, and decided to speak to Village Chief Chen, hoping that he could take better care of the poor old couple.
Bei Nan left Mushroom Village. There were too many things needed for logging: chainsaws, axes, safety helmets, safety shoes, gloves, etc. If Southwest were to procure these, it would be impossible to know when they would be able to gather them all.
The two brothers divided the work: Southwest was in charge of building houses, while they took care of other things, since their status as overseas Chinese was still very useful.
After Bei Nan left, Xin Nan was left alone and felt immense pressure. Wu Jin Ban, despite his small stature, told Xin Nan that he had found an aunt who could take care of Duo Duo.
Southwest was shocked. Now that Tang Xiaoling had fractured her bone, she couldn't move much at all. Tang's mother not only had to take care of Tang Xiaoling, but also cook and do laundry. She was too exhausted to take care of Duoduo.
"It's Aunt Minghua. Last time Aunt Minghua came to see Grandpa Village Chief, she saw Uncle Beinan and thought Auntie had also come back, so she came to find Auntie. Duoduo was very happy to see her and kept asking her to hold her."
"Where is Aunt Minghua? Where is she?" It turned out to be Ma Minghua. This crybaby is somewhat similar to Duoduo. No, wait, she didn't seem to cry much later.
