Gu Ye looked at the half-built stove, thought about it, and decided to go and call for help.

"Li Song, stay for dinner tonight. Your sister-in-law is a good cook."

Li Song waved his hands hurriedly.

"No need. There will be plenty of opportunities after dinner. Let's talk about it after you settle down."

Gu Ye glanced around and found that there was indeed not even a stool to eat on, which was a bit shabby.

"Then wait until I build a big house. Then I'll treat everyone to a good meal."

Li Song and several brothers spoke with a smile.

"Okay, then we'll wait. But Brother Gu wants to build a house, so remember to let him know. We can negotiate the wages."

In those days, it was difficult to earn money other than work points, and they didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Gu Ye nodded quickly. Li Song and his colleagues worked diligently, so they would definitely be asked for help in building the house.

"Okay, we are all brothers, I won't treat you unfairly."

After they finished talking, they started to get busy again.

Old Lady Wang stood in the distance and watched the group of people busying themselves, her face darkening.

"Oh, now that your wings are strong enough, I'll see how long you can be so arrogant."

No matter what, this money must be paid.

Mu Bai saw the figure of Old Lady Wang, dodged to the side, walked to a place where Old Lady Wang couldn't see him, picked up a stone on the ground, aimed and threw it over.

Old Mrs. Wang is grinding her teeth!

Suddenly, she felt a pain at the back of her head and cried out "ouch".

"That bastard who threw the rock at me, get out of here, get out of here."

It was the sound of Old Lady Wang shouting that attracted everyone's attention.

Mu Bai clapped his hands, walked out of the crowd, and hid his achievements and fame.

Susan felt relieved when she saw Old Lady Wang being humiliated.

"Brother Ye, your mother was hit by someone!"

Gu Ye glanced at Old Lady Wang and then looked away. The scream was full of energy, not because she was hit. It seemed that she was just bored.

"I'm busy!"

After saying that, they started chopping bamboo, and they moved quickly and skillfully.

Susan didn't plan to cook anything elaborate, so she just stewed the meat she brought, rolled the noodles into rolls, and stewed them directly on top of the soup.

It didn't take long for the fragrance to spread.

Susan didn't even have time to call Li Song and others.

These guys just ran away.

"Brother Ye, why don't you hold him back?"

Gu Ye glanced at the people who had disappeared.

"We'll invite you after we build the house."

Susan listened and nodded in agreement.

"Brother and sister-in-law, have a happy meal"

When Mu Bai came out of his hands and washed his hands, he heard Susan's words and his expression immediately darkened.

"Why, you won't let me eat?"

Gu Mubai felt numb, his wife was unhappy. He glanced at his second brother and sister-in-law, and was about to speak to coax his wife, but his second sister-in-law rushed over with a smile, pulled Mubai's arm and shook it a few times.

"No one else can eat it, but you have to. Come on, I've left you a few big pieces of meat, and I'm sure you'll enjoy them."

Mu Bai felt relieved when he heard Susan's sticky words.

I walked over, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and took a taste with satisfaction. The meat was well-seasoned, and the aroma filled the air with every bite.

Zhu Yue'e felt a little embarrassed holding the bowl.

"Today I took advantage of the second and third families."

Susan waved her hand.

"If you say this again, I'll be angry."

Susan's scolding words made Zhu Yue'e laugh out loud.

"Okay, I won't say anything more. I'll eat."

The few of them ate their meal quickly. Maybe it was the first meal after they separated, or maybe Susan’s cooking was really delicious, but they felt extremely satisfied with the meal.

Gu Quan and Zhu Yue'e were particularly touched.

When the second and third sons' wives were not at home, the second son would occasionally bring back some meat to satisfy his hunger.

But Old Lady Wang controls it. One chicken will last for ten days or half a month, and she only puts four or five pieces in each stir-fry.

There was a taste of meat that they couldn't get. The second and third sons and their couples came in, and there was more meat, but Old Lady Wang still held on to it. The eldest son and his wife could never eat their fill.

Even the little girl Gu Huan looked small and thin because she was hungry.

Now looking at the little girl with oil drooling from her mouth, Zhu Yue'e sighed.

After the family split up, although she still had no place to shelter from the wind and rain, she began to yearn for it.

No, this is not called separation, this is called being kicked out.

"We'll go to the village committee tomorrow and plan the foundation. You can see which plot of land you like."

Gu Ye watched as he swallowed a piece of meat and looked up at Susan.

Susan glanced around and saw the boundaries of the area she had already thought about.

"Over there, next to the back mountain."

Because it is next to the mountain, the villagers are afraid that wild animals will run out, so they dare not get close.

So there are very few people living there, but Susan and Mu Bai liked that place because there are fewer people and no one is watching them, so they can do more activities when they go out at night.

"Okay, what about my brother and sister-in-law?"

Zhu Yue'e wanted to stay close to Susan and the others, but Gu Quan was timid, and they also brought Gu Huan with them.

The area behind the mountain is not safe.

"Let's go to the village entrance! This place is also good."

After Zhu Yue'e finished speaking, she gave Susan some advice.

"Second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, it's not safe over there in the mountains. Why don't you come to the village entrance? It's more convenient to take a bullock cart and leave the village easily."

Susan shook her head.

"Sister-in-law, there are too many people here. I like quietness."

Susan had said it all, and Zhu Yue'e didn't say anything else.

A few people discussed the land where they wanted to build a house and ate all the food.

Zhu Yue'e took the initiative to take on the job of washing dishes and pots.

Susan didn't stop her. She was busy making the bed. The extra fabric she had bought two days ago came in handy. She had to pull a partition in the middle, otherwise it would not look good for six or seven people to live in such a large room.

Just wait until tomorrow and weave a few more fences to separate them.

After dark, they worked hard and finally covered the open area in front tightly.

"Go take a shower and go to bed! We'll be busy tomorrow!"

Gu Ye looked at Susan with a hint of guilt in his eyes. His wife couldn't take a bath if she wanted to.

Susan also knew what Gu Ye was thinking, so she leaned over and whispered something.

"As long as you don't bother me, I'll just wipe it off."

Gu Ye's Adam's apple rolled and he quickly looked away.

"Well, I'll go get some water."

Just now, Li Song and his friends came again and brought over the unused wooden barrels and basins at home. Susan boiled some water in them.

I won’t be picky, I’ll just use whatever one I want.

While the lady was washing up, several grown men consciously went out to watch over her.

When it's ready, just call out and quickly come in to get some water and pour it out.

Gu Huan climbed onto the bed and rolled into Zhu Yue'e's arms.

"Second Aunt, Third Aunt, can we sleep on the same bed?"

Susan laughed at the little guy's voice.

"Well, it's you, are you happy?"

Gu Huan nodded his head, realizing that Susan couldn't see through the curtain, and quickly spoke.

"I'm happy! I'm full and can sleep in the same bed with my second and third aunts. I'm very happy."

Zhu Yue'e looked at the smile on the little guy's face and felt more motivated.

"Rest! We have another day of work to do tomorrow!"

Susan nodded and pulled the bed sheet over herself. Fortunately, it was a warm day, otherwise they would have frozen to death in the middle of winter.
