After hearing this, the aunt felt better. She usually liked to compare herself with others.

Ni'er is a good girl in every way and there is nothing wrong with her. Compared with her, my daughter is like heaven and earth. I usually look down on my daughter.

Yes, Ni'er can't compare with her in needlework. With this skill, my daughter will be able to marry into a good family in the future. But if she is as strong-willed as Ni'er, no one will marry her.

The wrinkles on her face were all exposed, and the corners of her mouth were pulled apart. "Oh, Ni'er is already very capable. If she could learn needlework, would we be able to survive?"

"We've finished looking, let's go and don't delay their meal."

A group of people left in a mighty manner, and the yard became quiet in an instant. The third brother breathed a sigh of relief, and could finally eat in peace.

The four of them decided on the dishes to be prepared for tomorrow at the dining table. Ni'er had to cook two dishes, and for the other dishes she could find an aunt who was good at cooking to help.

It seems I have to come back early tomorrow. Fortunately, I have already taken a general look at the content I need to learn tomorrow, so it should be no problem to come back early.

The eldest brother woke up with a sore back and waist this morning. He was blown by the wind last night and felt really uncomfortable.

My health is not as good as before. In the past few years, it was so hot at night that I had no problem lying on the floor with the door wide open.

It seems that he is really getting old, but he endured it even so, stretched his sore body a little, and went up the mountain.

The second brother heard the noise and poked his head out of his room. Looking at his eldest brother's hurried back, a smug look appeared on his face. Yesterday's trick really worked. There was no need to urge him anymore. He could just wait at home.

I wanted to find the tree I marked yesterday, but somehow, after turning around for a long time, I still couldn't find it. This is the only tree I remember.

Maybe it was because my second brother was present and it was not convenient to make marks blatantly, so I did not do enough. I was so tired that I was sweating and panting, and sat down on the ground.

After resting for a while, I stood up and wanted to look for it again. I found that the tree was right behind me. I don’t know what happened just now, but I was probably too tired and a little overjoyed.

After catching his breath, he swung the axe and chopped down the tree. Although it was not very thick, it still took some effort. He looked at the fallen tree and hammered his waist with his hands. The next step was the most important one. He had to find someone to help him. He couldn't do it alone.

Generally, carpenters have tools at home, so it's better to ask who to borrow from. They make money with their skills, and you don't have much of a relationship with them. If you go to borrow without paying, you will most likely be kicked out. You know very well that your reputation in the village is very average.

After much thought, the third brother made a simple tool by himself before. When he had nothing to do, he liked to think about these things.

Everyone in the village knows that he has this skill, so they like to ask him for help without having to pay him much money.

It would be better to be thick-skinned and ask the third brother for help. It’s a piece of cake for him.

Even though my relationship with him was a little strained before, we are brothers after all. It’s just a small favor, and I don’t believe he won’t help.

The door panel was previously given to my second son, who didn't want to work on it carefully, so he just muddled it by cutting and putting it together. Now I still want to work on it carefully, making it straight and not wasting such good material. After all, it will be his in the future.

He also thought that the third brother's family had a donkey cart, and he could use it to transport the cut trees back home. However, if such good wood was taken away by someone else, all his efforts would be in vain.

He stood there thinking for a while, hoping that someone would pass by and bring him a message, but there was no one in sight. In the end, he accepted his fate and had to drag the wood back bit by bit by himself.

He dragged the bag for a while, carried it on his back for a while, and rested for a while, cursing as he dragged the bag. This damn second brother didn't even come to help. He was really lucky.

Yesterday, he came when he was not needed to work, and disappeared when he was needed. Last time, he was also involved in selling soy milk, and in the end he had to bear all the responsibility. He dragged the wood and cursed all the way, and it was not until noon that he finally dragged the wood down the mountain.

After getting down the mountain, they were in a dilemma again: should they drag the wood back home or directly take it to the third brother? Although the tools were simple, they were not light.

His family recently built a new house, and I heard that it is almost ready. They will definitely not let me do any work at their house, so I'd better drag it home.

Boss Niu's hair was soaked with sweat, and his clothes on the front and back were soaked, so you could see his outline. Water would come out of his clothes if you wrung them out casually, and there was a clear wood mark on his shoulder.

I finally got home, walked in breathlessly, scooped two buckets of water, gulped them down, and wiped the sweat dripping on the ground with my sleeve. Phew~ It seemed as if I wanted to expel all the heat in my body with this breath.

After drinking the water, he threw the ladle back, swayed on the water for a few times, turned a few circles, and stopped there.

Without further ado, the eldest brother hurried to the third brother's house. If he moved quickly, he would have a new door tonight and could have a good sleep.

Nier's family of four had just finished their meal and were sitting at the table drinking water and resting when a familiar voice rang out from outside the courtyard gate, "Third brother~"

The third brother frowned. His originally calm mood was disturbed by this voice and his stomach tightened. Last time, his eldest brother offended someone and suffered a lot. Since then, he has been thinking about staying away from him. What if the two children were implicated?

The expressions of the other three people were not very good either. Their smiling faces became tense.

It was clearly the most pleasant time, but how come such an annoying person came?

"Third brother, are you home?"

Through the gate I saw the newly built house of the third brother. It was really nice, clean, tidy and spacious. It must be four or five times bigger than the previous shabby yard. I wonder when I will be able to live in a house like this.

But it would cost a lot of money. If I could remove a door panel from him... uh... probably not, so forget it.

The third brother came out of the house reluctantly, and when he saw that his eldest brother had slowed down, he really didn't want to get close to him.

"Third brother, I want to discuss something with you. Can you open the door first?"

He glanced down imperceptibly, opened the door reluctantly, and asked in a light tone with a hint of impatience, "What's the matter?"

The boss didn't react for a moment, that tone of voice was actually directed at him.

He had always ordered his younger brother around since he was a child and he never complained. But now that he has money and lives in a bright new house, he looks down on his poor brother.

He didn't even bother to invite me in for a drink of water. He didn't care about saving face anymore. It was completely the opposite of how it was when I was a kid. I felt very bad immediately.

After all, he needed help, so he forced an ugly smile and said, "Third brother, I want to borrow something from you."
