After practicing archery for an entire afternoon, Meng Huaishao felt sore all over his back and waist that he couldn't even lift his arms.

It is more tiring than harvesting four crops a day by himself.

Meng Huaishao sat on the ground, pinching his arm with one hand, his muscles ached severely.

Ye Yaoyao stood behind him, tightly grasping the clothes on Meng Huaishao's shoulders with one hand and beating Meng Huaishao's shoulders with the other hand.

"Brother, are you comfortable? No?"

"Comfortable."

The tired little boy smiled happily.

And what he said was not just to coax the child, but was really comforting.

Ye Yaoyao is very strong!

Normally she has good control and is very careful when picking up things.

Coupled with her cute appearance, people always ignore the fact that she is actually a "strong woman".

When massaging her shoulders, Ye Yaoyao used just a little strength and felt it felt particularly comfortable.

"Yaoyao hammer! So comfortable!"

Ye Yaoyao changed direction and continued to hit the other side.

There was no skill involved, but for Meng Huaishao, whose hands and feet were sore, it was really a timely help.

At this moment, he really envied Ye Yaoyao's strength.

People are more mad than people.

They both use bows, although Ye Yaoyao’s is small, she is also small!

She pulled the bow as if it was a piece of cake, easy and not tiring.

Except that the accuracy is not very good.

Meng Huaishao suspected that Ye Yaoyao's poor accuracy might be related to the arrow feathers, which were more ornamental than practical.

Some bamboo arrows with regular feathers have a significantly higher chance of hitting the target.

But Ye Yaoyao loves fluffy arrow feathers!

She thinks it's so handsome!

?(*′?`*)?

If Ye Yaoyao knew that Meng Huaishao was criticizing her in his heart, she would probably use not just 10% or 20% of her strength, but 100% to beat him until he screamed!

Although he had Ye Yaoyao, a caring little girl, to massage his back, Meng Huaishao still had a sore back and couldn't muster up the energy.

Helplessly, I can only eat semi-finished products for dinner.

There were a lot of semi-finished ingredients in the refrigerator and warehouse. After asking Ye Yaoyao, she chose to eat cabbage and pork dumplings and steamed eggs.

The dumplings are already in the refrigerator, so you can just put them in the pot and cook them.

Steaming eggs is also a simple job, and Meng Huaishao prepared it in no time.

It will be cooked after steaming in the pot for a while.

Even before the dumplings were cooked, Ye Yaoyao was already eating the smooth and tender steamed egg.

The steamed eggs are also garnished with some green onions to enhance the flavor.

Ye Yaoyao didn't dislike green onions, but she would never eat them!

Carefully pushing aside the green onions that had already done their job, Ye Yaoyao scooped a small piece of steamed egg from the edge of the bowl.

The steamed egg is golden yellow, tender and jiggles in the spoon.

"hu~hu~"

Ye Yaoyao blew several times before putting the steamed egg into her mouth. The tender and smooth taste made her squint her eyes with happiness.

I have eaten half of the steamed egg and the cabbage and meat dumplings are ready.

This time they are all in the shape of hearts, white and plump, which makes people happy just by looking at them.

After eating and drinking, Meng Huaishao boiled some water and helped Ye Yaoyao wash before returning to the thatched hut.

It was getting dark.

Xiao Qingpan was in a corner of the yard. When he sensed Ye Yaoyao's presence, he quickly moved closer.

"Yaoyao~ I'm back~"

"Oh!"

Ye Yaoyao didn't give Xiaoqing a chance to get close to her, and raised her hand to call Xiaoqing back.

Xiaoqing was about to complain: "?"

You left it outside for so long, and you're not even allowed to cry and complain?

Ye Yaoyao didn't have the extra energy to listen to its complaints.

Even though she is strong and in good health, her energy is limited.

When you are tired and sleepy, just go to sleep. Why would you have the heart to listen to other people's nagging?

But, it seems like there is something that hasn’t been done yet?

Ye Yaoyao thought about it seriously, but her eyelids kept twitching.

She tilted her head and fell into the embrace of the quilt.

Never mind, if I can’t remember it, it’s not important!

sleep!

-

The next morning.

As soon as the warm yellow light shone into the room through the window, Meng Huaishao woke up.

He stretched out his body and felt relaxed all over.

It seemed that he hadn't slept so deeply for a long time.

Ye Yaoyao next to her was still curled up in the quilt.

The little person curled up into a ball, with his head tilted high and his cheeks flushed, looking both proud and cute.

Meng Huaishao touched the back of Xiaotuanzi's head and vest and found that he was sweating slightly, which meant he was hot.

He pulled the quilt over Ye Yaoyao again, exposing her hands and feet for fresh air.

"Yaoyao, brother will help you move."

Meng Huaishao said softly, then half-knelt on the bed, holding Ye Yaoyao's head with one hand and moving her head with the other hand to help her adjust her sleeping position.

The baby looks well-behaved, but actually he is asleep and not obedient at all.

Meng Huaishao stayed for a while, and when he saw that Ye Yaoyao was no longer sweating, he tiptoed out of the room.

Meng Huaishao went to open the door first and looked outside.

It was quiet outside the yard today.

Meng Huaishao was very satisfied, and even his steps to the kitchen to cook were much lighter.

Although everyone was enthusiastic and hardworking, their enthusiasm was too much and he couldn't stand it!

Luckily, no one came today!

Keep it simple in the morning and just cook some corn porridge.

Meng Huaishao thought about it happily and boiled another egg.

The egg yolk can be soaked in porridge and given to Ye Yaoyao to eat.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Just as Meng Huaishao put the eggs into the pot, there was a knock on the yard door.

Meng Huaishao shuddered!

Again!

He almost had a stress reaction.

After sweeping the area around the stove to make sure it was clean and free of flammable firewood, Meng Huaishao turned around and went out to open the door.

When Meng Huaishao saw that the person coming was Niu Hongcai, he almost cried out for joy.

Niu Hongcai definitely doesn’t have that much free time to help him with the work!

Today is the time for him and Yaoyao to be alone!

"Xiao Meng, what's the good news? Why are you so happy?"

Niu Hongcai looked at Meng Huaishao, whose mouth corners were raised high after opening the door and couldn't be lowered, and asked curiously.

"Huh? No!"

Meng Huaishao tried hard to hold back his smile and managed to regain his composure.

"Brother Cai, why are you here? Is there something going on in the village?"

"Yes, a little bit. Let's go in and talk!"

"it is good!"

After Niu Hongcai entered the door, Meng Huaishao looked around outside the door again. After making sure that there was no one there, he closed the door with confidence.

"What are you doing?"

Niu Hongcai looked at Meng Huaishao's strange behavior and was full of confusion.

They weren't going to steal, so why was Meng Huaishao acting so sneaky?

"Oh...nothing!"

Meng Huaishao smiled awkwardly. He couldn't say that he was afraid someone would come to his house and ask them to do the work for him for free, right?

That's really ungrateful.

After entering the house, Meng Huaishao wanted to pour water for Niu Hongcai, but was stopped by him.

"Don't bother, I'm here just to bring you a message!"

"It's okay, there's hot water in the kitchen, it'll be quick!"

Meng Huaishao brought some water and sat down, and Niu Hongcai began to explain the purpose of his visit today.

It turned out that all the villagers who had gone to Linyang County to work on repairing the reservoir yesterday had returned.
