Chen Qingxin nodded solemnly: "When it comes to the most trustworthy person in the village, it must be the village chief.

Asking you to assist Uncle Liu is not because I don't trust him, but it can save a lot of trouble if you are in charge.

I can't just kill everyone I don't like, right?

So, with you here, those short-sighted people don’t have the courage to come and cause trouble.

This month, I will pay you 2 taels as your reward, so please work hard.

You don't have to do the work yourself, or if you want to earn more money, you can work part-time at your uncle's place."

The village chief waved his hand with mixed emotions: "Girl, uncle will help you take care of it, but the salary you offer is too much."

"Yes, new girl, isn't 40 taels a bit high?" Liu the bricklayer also agreed.

“No food, 45 wen per person per day, 20 people, 30 liang per day for 27 days.

The remaining 13 taels are for your hard work. How can a contractor not make money?

To be honest, the reason I found you is, firstly, to give you the face of the village chief, and secondly, your uncle Liu has a good reputation in the village.

Rather than letting others make the money, I would rather give my fellow villagers a chance. I only have one request."

"What's the request?" the village chief and Liu the bricklayer asked in unison.

"Don't recruit people with bad intentions to work for my family.

Even though no action was taken, my second brother and I could see at a glance that Master would give us a reminder from Heaven.

But solving the problem is also quite troublesome, isn't it? "Chen Qingxin raised the banner.

Liu the bricklayer hastily assured, "Yes, yes, yes! Don't worry, new girl, I will definitely pick some with good character."

The village chief also expressed his opinion: "Well, I will also keep an eye on it at all times and will never let the new girl down."

Chen Qingxin was very satisfied with the reactions of the two people: "If there is no problem with this document, please sign it and we will settle it.

The employment letter from the village chief has also been written. Please rest assured that I will pay half of the wages first, and the balance will be paid immediately after the house is built.

Moreover, on the last day, all the workers who participated in the construction of the house will be treated to a big meal. "

"New girl, you are so thoughtful!

Also, your handwriting is even more beautiful than the ones in the books. It’s amazing, amazing!

If Guanghui were still alive, he would be very happy to see your family standing up. "

After Liu the Bricklayer finished speaking, he wiped the corners of his eyes.

He and Chen Guanghui grew up together naked and have always had a good relationship.

During the days when Chen Qingxin was in a coma, he asked his wife to bring food to the children.

Later, when I heard that Chen Qingxin had woken up, I stopped providing support.

But he also learned some information from the village.

Chen Li and his family are orphans and their mother is a widow. As a grown man, he certainly cannot express too many emotions.

If that happens, it will not only be detrimental to Chen Li's reputation, but will also cause misunderstanding from his wife.

While Liu the bricklayer was thinking over and over again, Chen Qingxin said goodbye:

"Let's put it this way first. Uncle Village Chief, Uncle Liu, my second brother and I will go back first. Tomorrow I will have to trouble you to take me to the town to buy materials."

"Okay, I won't invite Xin Yatou and Wen Xiaozi to have dinner with him." Liu the bricklayer was very embarrassed. The only dinner at home was brown rice porridge, which the family might not be able to eat.

"You're welcome. Let's go!" Chen Qingxin said, and signaled his second brother to leave the pheasant behind.

Chen Qingwen stuffed the chicken into Liu the bricklayer's hand and said, "Uncle Liu, this is for you to try."

Without waiting for an answer, the brother and sister used their Qinggong skills to fly away.

"Mom, we're back!" Chen Qingwen started shouting from a distance.

Chen Li was placing the cleaned pheasants and rabbits on two trays.

The rice in the big iron pot is ready.

Chen Qingxin took the two wild rabbits from his mother's hands and chopped them into pieces with a machete.

Put the fish in a pot with cold water, add a spoonful of wine, blanch for 5 minutes, and remove from the water.

Heat oil in a pan and fry sugar color, then stir-fry the rabbit meat until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Add dried chilies, Sichuan peppercorns, Sichuan peppercorns, bay leaves, cinnamon, star anise, ginger slices, wild onions, and a spoonful of spicy sauce and stir-fry until fragrant.

Add a little white wine, boiling water, chicken essence, and thirteen spices and simmer for 15 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and remove from the heat.

"Sister, this rabbit is so delicious." Chen Qingying was whimpering from the spiciness, but she still ate it with relish.

As Chen Qingwen ate, he praised loudly: "It's really delicious. I'll go to the mountain to catch a few more tomorrow and cook them like this. Is that okay?"

Chen Li smiled helplessly: "Xin'er, look, you are still eating this meal, but you are already thinking about the next one. Mother can't help it, what should I do?"

Chen Qingxin laughed: "Hahaha, I like it. We will often cook this kind of food in the future.

It’s just that Qingwu was too young, and the food was too spicy for his stomach to handle.

"I'll help you boil the meat, okay?"

"Thank you, elder sister!" The little bun grinned, revealing a mouthful of tiny teeth.

"Xin'er, eat by yourself. Mommy will help your brother wash the meat and eat it." Chen Li used a serving chopstick to pick up some meaty pieces for each child, and they nibbled on the edges and bones themselves.

"Mom, you eat too! Everyone, eat as much as you want. Let's enjoy our meal today!" Chen Qingxin also added dishes and rice to everyone:

"If you eat spicy food, you have to eat more. It doesn't matter if you eat too much. After dinner, we will start to circle the land. Don't worry about indigestion."

Chen Qingwen could understand, but the others didn't. Chen Qingying asked in confusion, "Eldest sister, what do you mean by us enclosing the land at night?"

Chen Li was also confused: "Xin'er, what are we going to use to enclose the land?"

Chen Qingxin smiled mysteriously: "You will know in a moment, now let's eat. Come on, eat more, everything has been cleaned up."

"Sister, why is the rabbit meat you cook so delicious?" Chen Qingying's face was full of curiosity.

"Want to learn?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Chen Qingwen nodded along with his sister, including Chen Li and Xiao Qingwu.

Chen Qingxin patted his younger brother on the head and said, "Why don't you just join in the fun? Kid, just eat along, haha!"

Two rabbits, a family of five, ate everything in one meal, even the soup was eaten up with rice.

Chen Qingxin felt quite accomplished. Who wouldn't want the dishes he cooked to be eaten up?

If people like the food, it proves that the cook is very skilled.

Chen Li also didn't understand why the dishes cooked by the eldest maid always tasted so mouth-watering.

Smelling its fragrance makes you feel relaxed and happy, and tasting its flavor leaves you with an endless aftertaste.

She sighed in her heart: This smell should only exist in heaven, how rare is it to smell it in the world?

I feel that his level is on par with that of the palace chefs.

Thinking of this, Chen Li was shocked: "Have I participated in the palace banquet before? Then who am I? Forget it, I won't think too much about it."

"Mother, do you want to come with me to see how we enclose the land?" Seeing Chen Li in a daze, Chen Qingxin took the initiative to break the deadlock and asked.

"Of course we have to go, Xiao Wu, let's go to work together."

Chen Li held Qingying's left hand and Qingwu's right hand, and followed Chen Qingxin and Chen Qingwen, brother and sister, to the outermost part of the wasteland.
