Ling Xiao nodded. This was the only way since the house was too small.
Meng Qidi turned her head to look at the door and lowered her voice, "What did you just buy?"
"Guess." Ling Xiao sat down beside the bed, pulled up the quilt in her basket, and took off the quilt cover.
"I can't guess, why did you take this off? How am I going to sleep at night?" Meng Qidi snorted while drinking porridge.
"Haven't you guessed it?" Ling Xiao took off the quilt cover, folded the cotton inside neatly again, opened the wardrobe below, pulled out the thin cotton inside and threw it on the bed, then tried to stuff the heavy thing in his hand in.
"I think it's a bit difficult." Meng Qidi couldn't help but say.
The man compared them a few times, folded the cotton wool in his hand again, and a few minutes later, to Meng Qidi's shock, he stuffed the 12-jin quilt into her...
Ling Xiao closed the cabinet door and stood up, saying unhappily, "Your jaw dropped. Go and help me watch the door."
Meng Qidi hurriedly walked to the door with the bowl in her hand, and couldn't help but say, "Brother Xiao, you are so virtuous. Anyone who marries you will be blessed after several lifetimes."
She can cook, wash clothes and is very dexterous. Wow, she is so outstanding. But one of her legs is not good. If she were a complete person, she would really feel that she is not worthy of him.
She had been busy escaping for decades in her previous life, so she didn't know how to cook. She must not be very dexterous, at least she couldn't fold a tofu-block quilt.
Ling Xiao twitched the corner of his mouth and quickly put the quilt on the bed, "I suspect you are bragging about yourself."
Meng Qidi was stunned for a moment, then blushed slightly. She really wasn't thinking about herself...
Ling Xiao put the quilt on and put it back into the basket. He glanced at the folded quilt on the bed and couldn't help but gently pull at the corner of the quilt.
Meng Qidi also knew that she couldn't fold the porridge as well as him, so she simply lowered her head and finished the porridge in her hand.
Ling Xiao glanced at the black and white TV and said, "I suddenly feel like I bought this for nothing."
"Why?" Meng Qidi blurted out.
"I forgot that there is no electricity in the village. Except for the radio, all the things that use electricity have been bought in vain." Ling Xiao sighed. It was his negligence.
Meng Qidi thought of the idle generator in the space and sighed. She felt like she was occupying the toilet without doing anything. Ugh!
It's a hero without a place to use his talents!
"Do you want to practice cycling this afternoon?"
Meng Qidi shook her head. "We have time in the afternoon. Let's weave a fence. The lotus leaves over the pond have grown and will bloom. Little Orange is not safe."
Not only the pond, but also the streamside must be fenced. It is too unsafe. It was not easy to give orders to the Ling family before, but now it is different. I can do it freely.
The Ling family is living a better life now, so she won't have to feel too guilty if they divorce in the future.
As soon as this girl came, she became diligent. Ling Xiao felt that his suggestion was a little too...
"What? Weaving a fence? Aren't you going to take a day off?"
Wang Po handed the washed cabbage to Ling Cheng who was waiting on the side, and rubbed her sore eyes.
"No need to rest, I'm not tired. Ling Xiao won't let me go to work, so I have to take care of the house."
Ling Xiao just said this before she left, saying that he had greeted the captain and she didn't have to go to work.
The old lady was not surprised. No one in the family was working, and she didn't mind Xiaodi going to work alone. Ling Xiao had a lot of allowances, so he could support one more person.
"Then can I help my aunt?" the little girl asked excitedly.
"Don't cause trouble for your uncle and aunt. Just play outside the door quietly." The old lady said and rubbed her eyes again.
"Mom, what...what's wrong with you?" Meng Qidi asked suspiciously. After calling her mom yesterday, she felt more comfortable with it now.
The old lady put down her hands and said, "I don't know what's going on. My eyes have been itching these past two days. I've been blind for more than ten years, and suddenly my eyeballs feel itchy and I want to dig them out."
Meng Qidi was stunned for a moment, remembering the Jade Spring Water that she had dripped into the well before. Could it be that the Jade Spring Water could also be effective in curing the old lady's illness that she had suffered for more than ten years?
She thought she had to use lotion to be effective.
What about Ling Xiao?
Thinking about how Ling Xiao had been jumping around so much in the past two days, was it because the Jade Spring Water had taken effect? It was a pity that modern medicine was not advanced enough, otherwise it would be possible to directly check whether the nerves were necrotic or recovered.
"Don't worry, your eyes are already blind, how bad can the outcome be?"
While the two were talking, Ling Jinming pushed Ling Xiao back from the opposite side, holding a machete and a saw in his hands.
Meng Qidi said something and quickly stood up to greet him.
The three of them took their tools and went to the bamboo forest in the back mountain.
"Can we use this bamboo forest?" Meng Qidi asked.
"Of course. When our family moved here, the nearby woodlands all belonged to us." Ling Xiao nodded slightly.
Meng Qidi's eyes lit up. "How wide is it? Can Ling Jinming take me to see it later?"
"Sister-in-law, there's no need to look. This bamboo forest and the two hills ahead are all there."
Meng Qidi turned her head in surprise and looked at the hill over there. Not far from the pond in front, separated by a large piece of wasteland, were two low hills. She hadn't noticed them before, but now looking carefully, they were covered with weeds and there were very few trees.
If you look closely, you will find that the Ling family is actually located in a valley.
"How did your family get the share?" Meng Qidi asked curiously.
Although we are no longer living in the same big pot, the land and hills are all public property.
Ling Xiao said, "That's what I said."
"You went through the back door?"
Ling Xiao said helplessly, "You think too much. Do you think this area is a good place? There are graves in the bamboo forest, and the two hills over there are rocky mountains. You can't grow anything except weeds."
"Then how..." Meng Qidi paused.
Ling Xiao said calmly, "Our family has a bad reputation. Grandpa, grandma and dad all had accidents. I don't know who spread the rumor in the village that our family is cursed, so they don't allow us to live in the village. This piece of hill is our family's compensation."
Meng Qidi asked, "Can I use it as I wish? Do you have a certificate of ownership?"
Ling Xiao was slightly stunned. "This land belongs to our family. Don't worry about using it. Although I don't know what the title certificate is, don't worry. Since the captain promised that this piece of land belongs to us, I got the certificate that year and went to the town and county to confirm it. From now on, this piece of land will be ours."
"That's good, let's go cut bamboo."
Meng Qidi was a little embarrassed. She almost forgot that the title certificate was issued in later generations.
She had heard that although the village was remote at that time, some people still had obtained these certificates.
When the two arrived at the bamboo forest, Ling Jinming was already sawing bamboo. "Sister-in-law, how much do we want?"
Meng Qidi turned her head to look at the stream and the pond over there. They were very long and it was impossible to measure them visually. "Let's cut them first."
She still had to figure out how to make the fence safe, and the stakes had to be driven deep, but the last thing she lacked was strength.
After half a morning, the three of them had already collected a lot of bamboo poles. Ling Jinming and Meng Qidi chopped them, while Ling Xiao sat in a wheelchair and was responsible for removing branches and leaves...
There was a large pile of them on the open ground. Meng Qidi asked the two to rest first, took a small bamboo pole and cut it into two pieces with a hatchet, then walked to the bank of the stream and compared them a few times.
Although the stream is not particularly wide, the banks around it are made of stones and are very solid. I don’t know whether it was built by the Ling family or if it existed before.
