"Okay, take good care of the house. We will be back before noon." She had to come back because her old man and son couldn't cook, and the food they cooked was unpalatable. She didn't want to waste food.
"Dad, remember to mix those materials over there in!" Xu Ning specially exchanged a lot of cement and bricks, and in order to prevent others from seeing them, he mixed them together with sand and gravel.
Originally, Xu Ning wanted to put some steel bars in it, but then he thought it was too conspicuous and gave up.
"Got it! Mom, you guys go quickly, be careful on the road, and come back early!" Xu Da waved his hands vigorously, fearing that Xu Ning would refuse to leave and come back late so that he wouldn't have time to eat.
"Your father is really something. You and your daughter are exactly the same!" You both have the same big heart!
"Grandma, I'm daddy's biological daughter, how could I be different? In my opinion, daddy and grandma look alike!"
"Don't involve me. Just sit still and don't fall down!"

"Boss, we need to buy a lot of cotton. Can you give us a discount? I think the cotton is quite moist. Is it because the ground was too wet?"
