I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

"Oh, by the way, Brother Shen Xiao, I suddenly remembered something. There is a little secret hidden in this space of mine - a super convenient shower room with hot water available at any time, and a magical tool that can instantly dry wet hair. In fact, if you don't mind the trouble, you can enjoy a comfortable hot bath here..." Xu Congyi herself was a little surprised that the topic had so naturally slid to the topic of bathing, but since the words had already come out, she continued frankly.

Shen Xiao's mouth curled up unconsciously when he heard this, and a warm current surged in his heart. He had to admit that since he met Xu Congyi, his heart was gradually opening up to her. Being invited by his beloved girl to bathe in the house, even with his increasingly thick skin, he still couldn't stand it.

"Okay, that sounds great. I'll definitely try this special bathing experience someday when I have the chance." Shen Xiao responded in a casual manner, trying to hide his inner turmoil, but the red color of his ears betrayed him.

Seeing this, Xu Cong couldn't help but chuckle, "Don't worry, Brother Shen Xiao, when you take a bath, I promise to stay outside and never peek at you." She said this with a confident look, but there was a cunning light in her eyes.

"You girl, you are getting more and more naughty." Shen Xiao shook his head lovingly, stretched out his hand and gently pinched Xu Congyi's cheek. The soft touch made him unable to help but pinch it a few more times.

It was getting late, so the two chatted and laughed for a while. Then Xu Congyi sent Shen Xiao back home, took a shower and rested.

......

Xu Congyi woke up very early, thinking about building a cowshed for Li Tian. Today and tomorrow were her days off from delivering popcorn, so she could also contribute to building the cowshed.

Li Tian still lives in the pigsty. Although the family doesn't have any pigs yet, they will definitely raise them. Besides, they have to kill the New Year pigs during the Spring Festival. Before that, giving Li Tian a decent home has become her top priority.

After careful consideration, Xu Congyi decided to locate the cowshed in the backyard, in the corner where firewood was currently stored. This layout not only cleverly utilized the space, forming a natural right-angle barrier, but also reduced the amount of work required to build a new wall.

Of course, the people who did the work were Old Man Xu and Hunter Xu. Grandpa Old Man Xu was experienced. He first used charcoal to outline the approximate scope of the cowshed on the ground. Dad Hunter Xu was responsible for preparing building materials. He cut down trees suitable for construction from the forest and sawed them into uniform lengths. Xu Congyi prepared the necessary ropes and nails according to the requirements of Grandpa and Dad.

As the sun gradually rose higher, the family began to work. Old man Xu fixed the wooden stakes, making sure they were deeply sunk into the soil, while hunter Xu lifted the heavy wooden beams one by one and placed them steadily in the designated positions. Xu Congyi was not to be outdone. Although she was not very strong, she was nimble and was responsible for passing tools, measuring dimensions, and fixing wooden boards with nails and other delicate tasks.

During the construction process, many challenges were encountered. Sometimes the wood size was not suitable and temporary adjustments were needed; sometimes the structure was not stable enough and needed reinforcement. Old man Xu patiently adjusted the angle of each wooden stake; hunter Xu used his keen intuition to judge where additional support was needed; Xu Congyi used her intelligence and talents to come up with various innovative solutions.

As time went by, the outline of the cowshed gradually became clear. The interlaced wooden beams formed a spacious and stable space. Now that it was cold, the wooden piles outside the cowshed were covered with finely woven straw mats, which were warm and cozy. In the summer, they could be removed for ventilation. The roof of the cowshed was made of modern materials that Xu Congyi bought from the space. It was waterproof and durable. With a layer of thatch on top, it became the same as an ordinary cowshed. With some remaining materials, a simple shed was built next to the cowshed, just right for storing the grass that Li Tian ate.

After putting Li Tian's feeding trough and water trough there, the cowshed was completed. Xu Congyi also covered it with a thick layer of thatch so that Li Tian could have a good rest. Although he was a livestock, Xu Congyi also hoped that Li Tian could have a comfortable little house in the Xu family.

With the addition of a new family member, Xu Congyi also began to plan her future life. She thought that she could use the wasteland around the rabbit house and sow grass seeds. When the grass grows, the rabbits and Li Tian will be able to enjoy fresh grass.

After the cattle shed was successfully completed, Mr. Xu did not stop, and his deft hands began to work again, making a special ox cart for another new member of the family, Li Tian. He knew very well that ox carts were not only an indispensable means of transportation in rural life, but also an important helper to reduce labor during the busy farming season.

Xu Congyi originally thought that it would take two days to build the cowshed, but unexpectedly it was completed in just one morning. After lunch, she went back to the house to take a nap. When she woke up, she found her grandfather planing wood in the yard. Xu Congyi walked over and saw that her grandfather was making a car board.

Old man Xu carefully selected strong and durable wood. These woods were strictly screened by him and were both tough and durable. With every knife and carve, saw and plane, he gradually carved the pieces of logs into the prototype of the car board.

Xu Congyi couldn't help with this job. At that time, there was no black rubber used in modern tires, so the wheels had to be polished by themselves. Fortunately, Old Man Xu was a good hand and finished the car plate and wheels before dinner. All they had to do was polish them carefully and assemble them tomorrow. Xu Congyi went to see it specially. The car plate was flat and solid, and the wheels turned flexibly and stably. It would be comfortable to sit on it.
