Divorce at the beginning, the rough general is very clingy

The aroma of the food here became stronger and stronger, and many people's stomachs began to growl.

As soon as the meal was served, everyone gathered around. Everyone brought their own food. A bowl of rice topped with scrambled eggs with leeks, and another large bowl filled with pork belly stewed with vermicelli and some pickles.

Oh my god, this food is so delicious.

"If it's not enough, come and get some!" Mi Yao shouted to everyone.

"Okay!" Everyone ate the pork belly they hadn't tasted for a long time, and their tears were swallowed down their saliva.

During this morning, there was a constant stream of people outside watching the fun. Many were envious, many were jealous, and some were saying sour words. Also, everyone had heard that Mi Yao had picked something good in the mountains and sold it for money, so they were all jealous.

There were obviously fewer people watching the fun in the afternoon, and many people went to the mountains to try their luck in collecting medicinal herbs.

In the afternoon, bricks were delivered from Fengjia Village. Mi Yao knocked them in his hands and felt that the quality was good.

So he asked Shuanzi to keep track of the numbers, and delivered eight carts of bricks in one afternoon. Mi Yao settled the bill and asked them to deliver another ten carts the next day.

Mi Yao saw that there were still some vegetables left in the kitchen, so she asked her two sisters-in-law to take them back. The two sisters-in-law were grateful and kept saying nice things.

There is meat, who can just eat it?

When Night Owl came back in the evening and saw everyone's achievements of the day, he nodded with satisfaction.

"Mi Yao, thank you for your hard work!" Ye Xiao looked at Mi Yao with deep affection in his eyes.

Mi Yao quickly looked away.

"I'm tired. I'm going back to rest." Mi Yao didn't want to discuss emotional issues with Ye Xiao. Regardless of whether she liked him or not, Ye Xiao was not the same kind of person as her. Moreover, it seemed that he was exiled now. Maybe one day he would be recalled by the court. What would she be by then? A country chicken, a mud-legged peasant, a village girl. Why would she go to the capital with him? Was she looking for trouble?

Maybe Ye Xiao just had some feelings for her because she was his child's mother. She still remembered that the first few times they met were all unpleasant. She didn't want such an impulsive man.

Ye Xiao didn't know that he was paying more and more attention to Mi Yao, but Mi Yao wanted to push him further and further away.

The two children were very sensible. They washed their hands and feet by themselves, and came to their mother's room early to sleep.

The next day, people who were going to work came early and started working enthusiastically. Mi Yao prepared chicken stewed with mushrooms and stir-fried pork with Chinese cabbage for lunch. The staple food was still rice, steamed buns, and a portion of pickles.

Originally some old women wanted to come and curse because they went up the mountain to look for a long time yesterday and found nothing, and they blamed Mi Mo, who said there were medicinal herbs on the mountain.

I searched for the whole afternoon, but not only did I find nothing, I was also exhausted.

But their men didn't let them cause trouble for Mi Yao. They were still working in the Ye family. If they offended Mi Yao, they wouldn't have to do anything. You have to know that the food in the Ye family was very good.

Liu Xueying has been staying at home these days and dared not come out. Last time, she thought she could have pinned Mi Yao to death, but unexpectedly, Mi Yao escaped again.

These days, she heard that Ye Xiao had bought a mountain and some land again, and she was itching to get it. She didn't believe what Mi Yao said about the money she earned from collecting herbs. There were only a few kinds of herbs on the mountain, and they were worthless. Who was he trying to fool? She must have been shameless and sold her body to get the money.

That’s what Liu Xueying thought.

She felt uncomfortable when she thought about Mi Yao, a fallen woman, dominating Brother Ye, so she came up with a plan to ruin Mi Yao's reputation.

We started building the wall today. Mi Yao asked to build the wall to be 2.2 meters high. Many people said that it was not necessary to be so high, but Mi Yao felt it was necessary.

Shuanzi followed Mi Yao's instructions, pulled the wires and built the wall.

On the third day, a wall of more than 400 meters was built, which looked spectacular.

The cellar has been dug and the walls have been built. A few people went to the mountain and cut down some trees to use as the roof.

On the fourth day, Liu Dahai's brother-in-law came with people and joined the construction team.

On the morning of the fifth day, when the construction team arrived, they saw Ye Xiao and his wife standing on a pile of blue bricks near the cave, looking very unhappy.

"What's going on?" Shuanzi saw a section of the wall collapsed.

"It looks like it's not that it was built solidly, but that it was pushed down by someone." said Ye Xiao.

"Who is so wicked!" Shuanzi was so angry that he kept cursing, and several villagers followed suit. This was too wicked. The person who did this was obviously jealous of Yexiao for building a big wall and a big house.

"Let's get to work." Mi Mo had an idea in mind. The people who did this must be unhappy with the Ye family's sudden prosperity. It is also possible that they can't bear to see themselves doing well.

Sisters-in-law Cuihong and Yinghua were less talkative today. The food at lunch was still good, with braised pork and potato cubes, stir-fried cabbage, and a pickle.

The wall was officially completed. Mi Yao took out some caltrops and asked Shuanzi to find someone to put them on the wall. Four more surveillance cameras were installed on the outside of the wall.

"Sister-in-law, what is this?" Shuanzi asked.

"Just think of it as a theft deterrent," Mi Yao explained.

Today is the fifth day since the start of work, and Mi Yao paid everyone's wages. Originally, she planned to pay them all at once after all the work was done, but the day before yesterday she heard a woman say that she was afraid she would not have enough money to pay the workers. She guessed that they were all worried.

Yesterday, Ye Xiao exchanged twenty taels of copper coins and brought them back. Today, he will pay everyone their wages.

All the work on Shuanzi's side was handed over to Shuanzi, the work on the back mountain was handed over to Village Chief Liu, and the construction of the house was handed over to Liu Dahai. His eldest brother-in-law's group worked for two days, so they opened the house for two days first.

Everyone got real money and felt more at ease.

Village chief Liu, his son and Shuanzi all paid fifty cents. They were so happy when they received the money.

When Ye Xiao came back, Mi Yao asked him to connect the caltrops outside to a big box in the yard.

Ye Xiao didn't ask what these were. Anyway, this little woman would not do useless things. He had a guess that these things must be related to the incident of knocking down the wall of his house last night.

In the middle of the night, a man's scream echoed through the valley.

Ye Xiao and Mi Yao woke up at the same time, then put on their clothes and left the room.

Mi Yao first pressed the big box at the gate, and then he and Ye Xiao went out of the yard one after another.

Near the cave, a man fell to the ground, his whole body still twitching.

Mi Yao didn't know him, "Do you know him?"

"Lai San, from Laijia Village, is a well-known rogue in town." Ye Xiao knew this person. Sometimes when there were people making trouble on the street, he would follow them. Over time, he got to know some of the outstanding figures in the twenty or so villages in Wan'an Town.

"This surname really suits him. He must be not a good person to come here in the middle of the night. I really want to change the voltage to 380 and electrocute him directly." Mi Mo gritted his teeth in hatred.

"He can't come here for no reason. There must be a reason. Can he die like this?" asked Night Owl.

"No, but we have to take it slow. His hands and feet are numb now. Should we call the police or find the village chief?" Mi Yao said.

"Tie him up first and talk after daybreak." Ye Xiao went home and took a rope to tie Lai San tightly.
