59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.

When we got home, Chen Li, Li Jie and other children were digging the soil, and they were focusing on one place, right next to the grape vines at the kitchen door.

This is exactly the intersection of the warehouse and the kitchen.

The little kids were digging so happily that they didn't even notice Chen Feng at the door.

Chen Feng pressed the bicycle bell, and a "dong dong dong" sound was heard.

A group of children immediately turned their heads to look over.

"Cauldron!"

"Big brother!"

The little guys came running over with a small spoon from home in their left hand and a small wooden bowl in their right hand.

"Big pot, we dug a lot of soil."

Chen Li said while holding up Lai Fu's dog bowl.

The dog bowl was filled with dirt.

Wow, you really know how to have fun!

Chen Feng mourned for Lai Fu for three seconds in his heart. It was a great misfortune for him to meet his little sister.

"Yeah, well done!"

"Keep digging slowly!"

"Okay!" A group of little ones nodded happily.

Chen Feng carefully carried the tricycle in.

"Xiao Feng, did you buy the glass?"

The person who was speaking was Jiang Hongjun's biological father, Jiang Jianguo. He had no job, so he learned plastering and carpentry. Whenever others needed to repair or build houses, he would have something to do.

When I have nothing to do, I make furniture at home.

Because the price was reasonable, everyone liked to secretly trade with him for noodles, vegetables, etc.

This time when the Chen family wanted to build a pool, they naturally gave priority to looking for him and Cai Xiaoli's father Cai Jiaxing.

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Jiang and Uncle Cai." Chen Feng stopped the tricycle with a smile.

"What's the hard work? I borrowed your tricycle so many times and you didn't charge me a penny." Jiang Jianguo said a little embarrassedly: "Your father is the same. He insisted on giving me fish meat."

"My family members are greedy, so I have no choice but to agree."

Chen Feng smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't cost much to borrow a bicycle. If I ask Uncle to help me with the masonry, I must give him something. Otherwise, we won't be able to ask Uncle Jiang for help next time."

This time, we hired two plasterers, Jiang Jianguo and Cai Jiaxing. Because there was not much work, we only hired them for one day. Originally, the two of them were determined not to take any money. In the past, they had often asked the old man to look after their headaches and illnesses.

But Chen Jianjun still gave each family a carp weighing more than one kilogram and one kilogram of mutton.

It was only a few cents according to the market price, but the two neighbors were very happy.

Especially Jiang Hongjun and his sister.

According to Chen Hao who followed them, they held on to the fish and refused to let go, forcing Jiang Jianguo to accept it.

"Hey, it's not a big project, just a small pond."

Cai Jiaxing was very good at getting mud, sand, bricks, wooden boards and other materials. Naturally, they also used their connections to get them.

They dug the sand directly from the river outside the city. No one is in charge of this thing at the moment, so they can dig it as they please!

Chen Feng did not disturb their work, but took out a shovel and started digging a well in the "small pit" dug by Chen Li, Li Jie and other little girls.

Seeing that they had nothing to do, a few children ran into the room to watch the two adults making the pool.

By noon, the bottom and four walls of the pool were completed, and all that was left was to apply high-grade cement and paste glass in the afternoon.

"Uncle, it's time to eat!"

Chen Feng prepared the meal and Chen Li ran to call for help.

Jiang Jianguo's daughter and Cai Jiaxing's youngest son followed Chen Li with drooling eyes.

"Dad, eat."*2.

"it is good."

It is quite common for casual workers to bring their children to work among bricklayers in this era, especially those who have family difficulties, are divorced (or have died of illness).

However, these two little brats were just greedy, and after being called back by their mother, they ran over again to get some food.

"Uncle Jiang, Uncle Cai, come and wash up first, it's time to eat."

Chen Feng filled a basin of warm water for them to wash their hands, and also helped the three dirty little ones, Chen Li, Jiang Zhongwu and Cai Xiaochen, to wash their hands and faces.

"Hehe, Big Pot, can we swim tomorrow?" In the morning, Chen Li was either digging in the soil or squatting in the warehouse. Her little hands and face were covered with mud.

"It will take a few days. You'd better be careful this afternoon. If you get too dirty, you'll be punished when mom comes home in the evening."

Chen Feng said with a smile.

Chen Li lowered her head to look at her clothes and said very cunningly, "Then I will go practice martial arts with my sister later. If mom asks, I will say that I practiced martial arts today."

Zhou Qing is very supportive of his children learning skills, even if it is fishing or learning slingshot.

In her opinion, fishing and learning slingshot are skills that can help them live a better life when they grow up.

Therefore, if Chen Li and Chen Hao got their clothes dirty while practicing martial arts, they would avoid being scolded or beaten.

"You are such a thief, but sooner or later you will get spanked by your mother."

"Hehe, no way, I can go fishing and shoot birds for mom to eat!" Chen Li said happily.

The three children washed themselves, and the two uncles washed their hands and faces.

The old man specially took out the wine.

Because they were separated by a layer and not old friends, Chen Feng only cooked three main dishes: braised crucian carp, lamb stewed with eggplant, and pickled fish. The rest were vegetarian dishes.

Chen Li sat next to Chen Feng, sandwiched between Chen Feng and Zhang Haixing, and the two children sat with their father.

"Come, eat, treat yourself like home, you're welcome."

The old lady scooped out a large spoonful of mutton and gave it to the two children who had obviously wanted to eat it but were afraid to move.

"Why don't you thank grandma yet?" Jiang Jianguo said lovingly.

After all, he is my biological son, and I am reluctant to send him back home.

"Thank you grandma."

The two children thanked him one after another, and then started eating.

I used to eat a lot of rice, but since last year it has become very rare, let alone meat.

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Chen, this pickled cabbage is delicious, sour." Chen Li proudly recommended her own pickled fish.

Zhang Haixing picked up a piece of grass carp from the sauerkraut with chopsticks, removed the fish bones, and gave it to the little foodie.

"Thank you, sister." Chen Li always stayed close to Zhang Haixing because Zhang Haixing doted on her.

"Xiao Feng, there shouldn't be many yellow sheep in this mountain now, right?" Jiang Jianguo was a rough man, used to drinking and chatting at the dinner table.

"Yes, there are basically no rabbits or pheasants in the mountainous areas on the outskirts. We have to go inside to look for them. If it weren't for the powerful rifle my grandfather bought, I wouldn't be able to catch a goat."

Chen Feng always gave the credit to Lai Fu.

According to hunting logic, this makes perfect sense!

An excellent hunting dog is the foundation of a successful hunter and is more important than luck.

After all, luck is an unstable thing, but the performance of a hound's nose is stable.

"Your good luck is also important. It's difficult for others to find prey even with hunting dogs in the mountains." Cai Jiaxing picked up a piece of crucian carp belly meat for his son, leaving the tastier part where the fins meet the belly.

The meat is tender and has no bones.

Seeing that they were polite, Zhang Haixing became less polite and shared the two best parts of the crucian carp without bones with Chen Li.

"There are fish in the river outside the city now. People in the countryside can catch two or three a day." Jiang Jianguo said enviously, "I plan to try it tomorrow."
