"Come and see, come and see what I found."
Just when Leng Mengyao was hesitating, not knowing whether to go forward or retreat, Lu Xuan, whose hair was still dripping with water without even wiping it, ran into the cave excitedly wearing a pair of shorts and a coat, and seemed to be holding something in his hand.
The two girls, Shen Keyin and Yin Yichen, had originally focused their attention on Leng Mengyao. When they saw Lu Xuan again, they all looked at him.
Lu Xuan was holding a brown baby bird in his hand, flapping its wings continuously.
"It's so cute, Lu Xuan, where did you catch it? Can it fly?"
When Shen Keyin saw the baby bird, her maternal instinct was almost overflowing, and she was just about to give it a kiss.
"I didn't catch it. I just finished taking a shower when this guy hit me. I guess it was a baby bird that fell from a tree."
"Give it to me quickly, give it to me quickly."
Yin Yichen simply snatched the baby bird from Lu Xuan's hand impatiently.
Leng Mengyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. The two girls had completely ignored her and were only concerned about the baby bird.
Lu Xuan wiped his hair and signaled Leng Mengyao that he could go wash up, while he himself got straight into his warm and comfortable sleeping bag.
It is said that a house of gold or silver is not as good as one's own thatched house. Lu Xuan now feels that this is true. There are many beautiful places on this island, but the best place is his sleeping bag.
The two girls were busy playing with the baby bird of unknown species, while Lu Xuan was already snoring and falling asleep.
I was really exhausted in the past two days, so I must get enough sleep this time.
Lu Xuan slept until dawn. If he hadn't heard the chirping of birds, Lu Xuan felt that he could have slept for another two hours.
"Chop it up a little more."
"Is it too full? It's already had three pieces of fish..."
"No, look, its mouth is still open..."
…
In front of the cave, Chen Keyin and Yin Yichen were still busy with the chick, only Leng Mengyao was busy grilling fish for his group.
"Okay, both of you, stop playing around with things. We still have a lot of work to do today. We may not even be able to support this person. Let's put this bird aside."
After getting up, Lu Xuan went to the bathroom, then sat in front of the barbecue grill and enjoyed his breakfast in big mouthfuls.
"How can you be so heartless? This little bird is so pitiful. If we don't feed it, it will surely starve to death."
Yin Yichen and Shen Keyin were both in the period of their maternal brilliance, so whatever Lu Xuan said was useless.
"I don't care how you want to feed the birds, but your task today is to help me carry 20 bamboo sticks each to the front yard, and to help me chop two loads of firewood this afternoon."
In order to prevent the two girls from doing their jobs, Lu Xuan gave the order directly.
"Got it, Mr. Capitalist Lu. So, what are you two doing?"
Yin Yichen secretly rolled her eyes at Lu Xuan, and did not forget to bring Leng Mengyao along.
"Leng Mengyao, follow your original idea today and move some more bushes in front of the front yard. I'm going to the jungle on the left. That road must be closed. At least no one can enter or exit freely."
Lu Xuan already had a preliminary plan in mind for the next two days.
Seeing that Lu Xuan had assigned tasks to everyone, including himself, Yin Yichen was speechless.
Shen Keyin and he carefully moved the chick to the bottom of a rock wall that was sheltered from wind and rain, sprinkled a layer of sand on it, laid a few leaves on it, and inserted small tree trunks around it, thus making a simple birdcage to enclose the chick.
When this palm-sized baby bird saw that the two "big sisters" were about to abandon it, it was quite reluctant at first and kept flapping its wings. Its pitiful appearance really made the two girls feel distressed.
However, the "capitalist" Lu Xuan was staring at them from behind, so the two girls had to go to work no matter how reluctant they were.
Taking the two girls to the bamboo forest, Lu Xuan taught them how to transplant bamboo alive, and then he returned to the lake to think about how to renovate the backyard.
At present, the area of my backyard is actually very considerable. It can be said that if the size of my front yard is as large as a badminton court, then the area of the entire backyard plus the lake is probably equivalent to the size of two football fields.
For a long time, the scope of my activities was actually quite limited, and I basically had never been to the lakes near the south.
First of all, the lake is actually divided into two parts. The northern part, which is close to my backyard, is the part I use most frequently. Whether it is washing clothes, cooking, bathing, or catching fish and turtles, I basically do all the activities in this area.
The lake on the south side was cut by a jungle. The narrowest part of the lake was only five or six meters wide. There were towering trees on both sides, and the terrain was even more rugged. Therefore, Lu Xuan almost never went to the south side of the lake. After all, the lake on the north side was enough for his group to use, so why should he go so far to use the water from the south side?
As for the east side of the lake, which was the direction Leng Mengyao and Yin Yichen came from, it was a natural barrier made up of dense jungles and bushes, while the west side was composed of a large bamboo forest and palm trees, and was closely attached to a steep hillside.
How should I put it... If you say this place is dangerous, there are two jungles and one next to the hillside. It looks extremely hidden. Without spending some effort, let alone thinking of a sneak attack on our group, it would not be easy to find this place.
But if you say it's absolutely safe here, it doesn't seem to be the case. This is a completely semi-open place, whether it's the lake or the lawn, anyone can enter at will. It really lacks a sense of security...
"Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan!"
Just as Lu Xuan was walking slowly southward along the lake, thinking about how to make his backyard safer, three girls came running excitedly from the front yard.
The three of them had obviously been looking for Lu Xuan in the direction of the lake for a while, and were all a little out of breath.
"What's wrong? Have you finished your work? Why are you all here?"
Lu Xuan looked at the three people in confusion.
"Little handsome boy, you are really a big capitalist."
Yin Yichen grumbled, expressing her dissatisfaction with Lu Xuan, a capitalist who only knew how to exploit working farmers.
"Lu Xuan, go over and take a look! We...we noticed that the yacht is getting closer and closer to the coastline!"
Although Leng Mengyao and Shen Keyin ran here in one breath and were a little out of breath at the moment, they were still quite excited when they thought about what they had just seen.
"A yacht? Come on, take me over to take a look!"
Lu Xuan decisively turned around and ran towards the north...
