Meng Qidi was gesturing with a bamboo pole, and Ling Jinming pushed Ling Xiao over curiously.
After comparing several times, Meng Qidi decided that the fence should be about one meter high. It would be safe and save bamboo. At one meter high, one could still see the stream and the situation on the opposite side.
It's not reliable to rely on fences to prevent thieves. If they really want to do something bad, they can come through the bamboo forest at the back or from above.
"Is it sawed this long?" Ling Jinming gestured to confirm.
Meng Qidi nodded, "Well, it will be fine this length, Brother Xiao, help me cut the lower end, make it like this."
Meng Qidi chopped one side of the bamboo with an axe. After two chops, the lower end of the bamboo pole, which was as thick as an arm, became pointed.
After sending the axe to Ling Xiao, Meng Qidi used the bamboo pole to indicate the approximate location, then picked up the sledgehammer and swung it down. With two hammer strikes, the entire bamboo pole was directly buried eight centimeters into the ground...
Ling Jinming opened his mouth in surprise. This sister-in-law is really amazing. I had heard about how amazing she was when I was working there before. Now I see that she is indeed as good as her reputation.
I heard that last night a knife was inserted into a bowl, which directly frightened the group of guys in the village.
"Is it stable?" Ling Xiao cut two bamboo poles and looked up and asked.
Meng Qidi reached out and shook the pole, but it didn't move at all.
“How are you going to make the fence?”
"What do you think?" Meng Qidi asked back.
"Why don't we just drive in piles, a whole row, to make them sturdy. We can plant some bamboos outside the piles to protect the river bank."
Meng Qidi glanced at the bamboo stakes in front of her and nodded slightly. Her eyes fell on the bamboo pole and she suddenly turned her head.
"Can you saw this bamboo pole through the joint? Like this one?"
Ling Jinming took a look and said, "Leaving this in the same bowl will easily collect rainwater and cause it to get moldy."
"No, I can plant some flowers and plants in here, such as orchids and cacti."
It can also be used as a potted plant to add a touch of color to the bamboo fence.
After deciding how to do it and the approximate number of piles to be driven, Meng Qidi and the other two began to work, each doing their own job and coordinating well. Meng Qidi's bamboo fence was almost reaching the stone bridge.
It was almost noon, and Ling Xiao went to cook. Xiao Chengzi followed Meng Qidi closely, and from time to time he would help and run over while holding a few large bamboo poles.
"Aunt, can we grow something delicious here?"
The little girl has already learned from Uncle Ling Jinming that flowers should be planted on this very tall bamboo.
"all right."
Meng Qidi put down the bamboo pole in her hand, reached into her pocket, took out two big red dates and handed them to her, "Xiao Chengzi, tell your aunt, where are the dates on the date tree?"
The last time I came, they were large green dates. Logically, the dates on the trees should have turned red in less than two months.
But this time she found that the tree was empty...
The little girl pouted and said, "I don't know either! I was planning to get a haircut that day, but in the end, there was nothing left..."
"Do you know where Zao went?"
The little girl shook her head blankly.
Meng Qidi frowned slightly. If this was taken away by someone else, wouldn't it be...
Thinking of this, Meng Qidi squatted down and asked, "Has any stranger come to your house before?"
"Do Uncle Jin Ming and Uncle Shen count?" the little girl asked, tilting her head, holding the big red dates tightly in her hands.
Meng Qidi paused, "Have they been to the back before?"
The little girl shook her head. "No, only my uncle and grandma came here. By the way, Jin Ming said he would come today too."
Meng Qidi nodded slightly. If it wasn't the two of them, then it would have to be Ling Xiao and the old lady. It was impossible for the old lady to notice this because of her poor eyesight.
Ling Xiao is different. Although it is unclear what his military position is in the army, soldiers are definitely vigilant, and now they are afraid that he will find out something is wrong.
Meng Qidi took a deep breath. It seemed that she had to be more careful in the future. What she was worried about now was not this, but how to heal her leg without anyone noticing and without him getting suspicious...
Just drop a drop of lotion into the well? She had no idea how strong the lotion was. Would the water in the well be enough to dilute it?
She is now afraid that the effect will be too terrible. If Ling Xiao's leg is healed after drinking a sip of well water, she is afraid that he will make some guesses.
Until dinner, Meng Qidi hadn't thought of a solution and pretended to glance at Ling Xiao casually.
Ling Xiao chatted with Ling Jinming from time to time while eating. He seemed to notice that something was wrong with Meng Qidi and looked over suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
Meng Qidi shook her head. Did he pick the dates?
If the other party doesn't say anything, she certainly can't ask.
During the piling work in the afternoon, Ling Jinming planned to help, but was sent back by Ling Xiao. After all, he was not a family member and had to go to work.
Meng Qidi is very strong and has a big hammer, so she is much faster.
Leave space for crossing at the stone bridge, and then continue around the gate.
"Didn't you say we should go around the pond?" Ling Xiao asked in surprise. After going around the pond for so long, she wasn't tired at all...
"Let's build the door first. It's not high anyway. We can work on the pond later." Meng Qidi shook her sore arms.
Now that she thought about it, she still felt that bamboo was not good and would definitely not last long...
I sighed silently. The bricks and cement in the space...
Just use it for now and find a way to get it out later. Now, in addition to transforming the Ling family, she also has to find ways to make money.
Apart from these vegetable plots and the wasteland at the doorstep, the Ling family has no other income, except for Ling Xiao's allowance, of course. She can't just live on Ling Xiao's little money, right?
Of course, you can earn money yourself, which gives you a greater sense of security.
After a day of hard work, Ling Cheng happily circled around the sturdy bamboo fence surrounding the Ling family's house, and even Wang Po couldn't help but touch it.
