Suddenly, Gu Lili seemed to have thought of something.

He quickly trotted back to his home.

The uncles and aunts were left looking at each other in confusion as they stared at Gu Lili's back.

"Uh... maybe there's not enough firewood?" Tiedan's father laughed dryly.

After a while, everyone saw Gu Lili trotting back with a wooden bucket.

Gu Lili ran to the stream, fetched a bucket of water, and walked towards the fire.

Walking to the fire, Gu Lili poured all the water in the bucket onto the burning stones, then ran forward desperately with the bucket in hand.

Just when everyone was confused about what was going on, they heard a loud noise coming from the fire.

"boom!"

The stone actually exploded, and the splashed debris flew out from the foundation.

Everyone stepped back in fear.

After a while, hearing no more noise, Tiedan's father wanted to go forward and see what was going on.

Gu Lili quickly reached out to stop Tiedan's father, "Uncle, if we go over there later, there might be another explosion!"

Just as Gu Lili finished speaking, another "bang" sound was heard.

The stones in the foundation exploded again.

Tiedan's father hurriedly stopped. After about a cup of tea, when he heard no more noise, he mustered up the courage to go over.

Gu Lili also followed Tiedan's father and went to the foundation to take a look.

The boulder had been blasted open a lot, but it was still not deep enough.

After discussing it, several people decided to continue blasting rocks.

"Uncles, if you have extra firewood at home, please bring it all here and I will pay you for it!" Gu Lili said with a smile.

Tiedan's father waved his hand and said, "There's firewood all over the mountain. We don't need any money. We can just go back and fetch some more!"

Everyone agreed and went back to fetch firewood.

However, Gu Lili silently memorized how many loads of firewood each person had.

After several rounds of blasting, the foundation was finally completed before lunch.

Without the huge rock blocking the way, building the house can officially get on track.

It should take a month or two for Gu Lili and her three siblings to move into their new house.

After lunch, Gu Lili took out the clothes she bought yesterday and shared them out.

Each of them bought a set, Gu Lili's was a green dress and Gu Huanhuan's was a goose yellow one.

Both Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou's are dark blue.

These ready-made clothes were all made of satin, which was many times better than the coarse cloth they usually wore.

When the three saw the clothes in Gu Lili's hands, they couldn't help but exclaimed.

Gu Lili also bought four hairpins from the mall, which were just right for them to use.

The three of them were reluctant to wear the coarse cloth clothes they had made before, so they would probably be even more reluctant to wear these satin clothes.

Since Gu Lili wants to do business, she naturally needs to dress better.

As the saying goes, respect the clothes first and then the person.

Wearing better can save you a lot of trouble.

"Sister, this is something only rich people in the city wear. It's so beautiful!" Gu Huanhuan exclaimed.

Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou stared at the clothes in front of them at a loss. They wanted to reach out and touch them, but were afraid that the calluses on their hands would scratch the fabric.

Gu Lili smiled and said, "Why should we distinguish between rich and poor people in terms of clothes? Just buy them for me and wear them!"

Having said that, he handed the clothes in his hand to the three people without any further ado.

"Go ahead and try it, change your clothes, and come over here so I can comb your hair!"

The three siblings obediently took their clothes and changed them, and Gu Lili also changed into her new dress.

Gu Huanhuan changed first, and Gu Lili started to tie Gu Huanhuan's hair.

Gu Lili not only bought clothes, but also shoes and matching hair accessories.

The hair accessories she bought were not expensive gold or silver hairpins, but exquisitely carved wooden hairpins, four in total.

There are also four headbands of different colors. Gu Huanhuan's is the yellow one that matches her dress.

Gu Lili's was a turquoise green one, while Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou's were moonlight white and blue respectively.

Because they lived in the village and couldn't wear a too exaggerated bun, Gu Lili tied Gu Huanhuan's hair up high, tied a hairband on it, and inserted a hairpin in the bun.

Gu Huanhuan's food has improved recently, and she has gained some flesh on her face. She looks chubby, and with new clothes and hair accessories, she looks very cute.

She has big, bright black eyes and long, flickering eyelashes. She will definitely be a beauty when she grows up.

Gu Lili handed the palm-sized mirror she bought in the space to Gu Huanhuan and said with a smile, "Look quickly, which little girl is so cute!"

When Gu Huanhuan saw herself in the mirror, she was startled at first, but then she realized that it was actually herself reflected in the mirror.

She had never seen her own appearance so clearly before. She had always looked at it in the water before. She never expected that she would look like this.

Gu Huanhuan's face flushed red, and she said, "Sister, stop teasing me!"

Gu Lili couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Sister, what are you guys talking about so happily?" Gu Sigou trotted out of his shack.

Gu Huanhuan quickly shook her head and signaled Gu Lili not to tell Gu Sigou.

Gu Erniu also walked out soon after, but his walking posture seemed a little awkward.

"Erniu, are the clothes too small?" Gu Lili asked with a smile.

Gu Erniu shook his head repeatedly and said, "No, no, it's just that this dress is too good, I don't know how to wear it!"

Seeing how shy he was, the three siblings couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gu Erniu also scratched his head and laughed along with the three of them.

Gu Sigou came up to Huanhuan and said, "Third sister, you look so beautiful today!"

The blush that had disappeared from Gu Huanhuan's face instantly returned.

Gu Huanhuan pointed at Gu Sigou's head and said angrily, "You are such a sweet talker!"

After playing for a while, Gu Lili began to comb the hair of Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou.

Gu Lili was very deft with his hands, and in no time, he had tied up both of their hair.

She put on a hairband and a wooden hairpin.

Gu Lili looked at the two brothers with new looks and couldn't help but admire them.

"Well, my craftsmanship is really good!"

Changing clothes and hairstyle can improve your temperament.

Gu Huanhuan quickly handed the mirror in her hand to the two of them to look at. At first, they were frightened by themselves in the mirror, and then they were amazed.

Gu Lili felt that at this moment, her two younger brothers did not look like farmers, but more like two scholars.

"Wow, Erniu, Sigou, you two really look like scholars!" Zhang Dahua's loud voice came from the gate of the courtyard.

Gu Lili was instantly brought back to reality. The names of Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou didn't sound like those of scholars!

Gu Erniu and Gu Sigou both smiled a little embarrassedly. Especially Gu Erniu, his face almost turned red like a monkey's butt.

Gu Lili felt that it was time to change their names.
