Everyone would definitely not stop their daily work just because Zhou Xinghua disappeared, so Li Zheng asked Chen Wen to find it on his own.

The men were divided into several categories. Those with serious injuries would rest for a few days before seeing the situation, those with minor injuries would rest for a day or two, and those with no injuries would go out to work.

Li Xuan took the waterwheel drawings and went to the carpenter to make the waterwheel.

Even the little kids who usually run around with nothing to do have to dig wild vegetables and collect firewood with the old lady. And a group of half-grown girls went to dig herbs with Li Dahao.

There have been more people injured in the past two days, and more than half of the medicinal materials that were stored before have been used up, so I have to look for medicinal herbs.

Li Qingxiu went to the earthen kiln to see how the lime was burning. Fortunately, the large earthen kiln lasted long enough and the lime was very successful.

This made both her and Li Datian extremely happy. After taking out the lime from several earthen kilns, they quickly added new limestone for firing.

After the lime matter was settled, Li Qingxiu returned to the thatched house in a good mood. She plans to make steamed buns and steamed buns today.

Originally she wanted to make noodles, but that guy Qingfeng Li still asked her to make meat buns.

Li Qingxiu took out the last two cabbages and picked the outer leaves for Qingfeng Li to feed Da Mao.

Da Mao has been strictly prohibited from coming out by Li Zheng and can only stay in the donkey shed. Li Qingxiu went to see Damao once. Li Qingxiu didn't know what to say about the awkward big hair.

Because she already knew from Li Yuhao that Da Mao had two horse wives, no wonder she would be so angry with Li Zheng. After all, Li Zheng and the others wanted a horse boy, not a mule boy.

Li Qingxiu chopped up two pieces of cabbage and soaked some meat in oil to make stuffing with the cabbage.

"Qingxiu, can I come in?"

"Auntie, come in." Li Qingxiu knew it was Widow Jia's voice as soon as she heard it.

As soon as Widow Jia came in, she saw Li Qingxiu making buns. "Oh, you girl, you are so clever with your hands. These buns are big and beautiful. They will be cooked later, can I try them?"

"Okay, you can eat as many as you want." Li Qingxiu smiled and said, "By the way, aunt, what do you want from me?"

Widow Jia said to Li Qingxiu with a mysterious face: "Come with me and show you what good things I have brought you."

Li Qingxiu also became interested upon hearing this. She wiped her hands in her apron and followed Widow Jia to the door. She heard a gurgling sound before she even stepped out of the door.

Li Qingxiu looked towards the source of the sound and saw two pheasants on the ground outside the door. "Pheasant?! Auntie, are you going hunting again?"

Widow Jia was a little embarrassed and said: "Li Zheng arranged for me to dig herbs with Li Dahao and the others. But the herbs were too hard to find, and there were a lot of wild vegetables, so it ended up being digging for wild vegetables. While digging wild vegetables, I saw these two Pheasants, I caught them back, and they are a male and a female. I told you that you can raise them, and then you will have pheasant eggs to eat."

Li Qingxiu refused: "Why is this so embarrassing? This is what you worked so hard to catch."

Widow Jia gently patted Li Qingxiu's arm. "What's the point? Then you've been nice to me a lot, so don't worry about it. You three siblings all need to take care of themselves when they grow up. If you really feel sorry for yourself, at worst you can give me one when the time comes. Eat two wild eggs.”

Qingfeng Li, who had just finished feeding Da Mao, saw two pheasants on the ground when he came back. His eyes lit up and he immediately ran over and squatted down. "What a beautiful pheasant."

Li Qingxiu said to Li Qingfeng: "Aunt Jia gave this to us. You will have wild eggs to eat from now on. Why don't you thank Auntie."

Upon hearing this, Qingfeng Li said happily: "Thank you, Aunt Jia, you are so kind."

Widow Jia smiled broadly: "Your little mouth is quite sweet. Don't get too close. This pheasant is dirty. You will have to hug Xiaoxiao later. I have tied up this pheasant. Where will I keep it?" You decide for yourself. I'll go and get busy first. By the way, the buns are cooked, remember to leave one or two for me."

Li Qingxiu suddenly thought of something and called Widow Jia to stop. "Auntie, wait a minute." After saying that, she pulled Widow Jia back into the house.

Widow Jia was confused. "What's wrong?"

Li Qingxiu said: "Auntie, where do you plan to build your house?"

Widow Jia immediately lost her smile when she heard this, and said with some sadness on her face: "Oh, I'm not afraid of your jokes if I say it. You also know that I am a widow. It's really hard to choose this position. I am far away from everyone. I am afraid of wild beasts, so I live close to them, and their wives think I am a widow, so they are worried."

Li Qingxiu smiled slightly. "You can build it next to my house."

Widow Jia said: "Don't you think I haven't thought about it? But the land that can still be built next to your house has been circled by the Li Zheng family."

Qingfeng Li pointed outside and said, "Then you can build it opposite."

Widow Jia looked even more helpless. "The opposite side is occupied by your eldest uncle, your second uncle, and the Li Lei family. Anyway, I will find a place to build closer to your home. It will be more convenient to come and chat with you in the future."

Even if Widow Jia didn't tell her, Li Qingxiu didn't even know that the open space around her house was already occupied.

Li Qingxiu looked at Widow Jia and said, "Auntie, it doesn't matter where it is built. Anyway, you must build this house as soon as possible."

"Okay!" Although Widow Jia didn't know why Li Qingxiu asked her to build a house early, she knew that Li Qingxiu would not harm her.

After sending Widow Jia away, Li Qingxiu continued busy with the work at hand. It took until the afternoon to steam the steamed buns and steamed buns.

A plate of steamed buns was placed on the table for Qingfeng Li to eat. The rest was put into the fresh storage compartment, and Li Qingxiu also asked Li Qingfeng to leave a few buns for Widow Jia.

After saying that, she left the thatched house because she remembered that she wanted Li Zheng to install a stone kang in her new house according to the drawings.

When Li Zheng saw the drawing in Li Qingxiu's hand, he couldn't help but wonder: "Did you dream of this again?"

Li Qingxiu nodded and said: "I discovered it in that dream. In the dream, my house had this kind of stone kang installed, and the three of us, my sister and my brother, slept very warmly."

After hearing this, Li Zheng looked carefully at the things drawn in the drawing. The more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became. What kind of strange person could design such a good thing? Anyway, he couldn't figure it out with his mind.

Fortunately, Li Qingxiu took out the drawings early, otherwise it would have been troublesome to wait until the house was almost completed to take them out.

Li Zheng asked: "Do you only need to install it in the main house, or do you install it in all houses?"

Li Qingxiu thought about it and didn't know what would happen in the future, so she just pretended to save trouble at once.

"Decorate all the houses that can be occupied by people, so that you don't have to make beds anymore."

After Li Zheng agreed, he chuckled and said, "Hehehehe... Pretty girl, can everyone use your drawings?"

"Okay, let's use those three big wild boars in exchange."

Li Qingxiu knew that Li Zheng would ask this question, so she thought about it. She wanted to make a batch of bacon and sausages, but the mall had no pork for sale recently, so she focused on the three large wild boars raised by the team.
