Life in Xiaogouzi is colorful. Zhou Kai, Wang Bo and others began to discuss building a road, which means digging a slope down so that cars can pass through and people can walk on it.
Ling Xue had been looking forward to this day for a long time. She was really worried about leaving her tricycle on it, fearing that someone would ride it away.
This time the whole family joined in, even Xiaobao was not left out.
It is definitely impossible to finish the work in one day. With their ability, if they don't cheat, it will take many days to repair this short path.
"I'm strong, I'll carry the soil!" Ling Xue volunteered. She was also planning to use the safe house to cheat, so she would definitely be very efficient then!
Aunt Zhang and Uncle Zhang were the first to object: "Forget it, just do whatever you want, but don't work too hard. You're not like them."
Ling Xue was speechless. When did she give these people the impression of being weak and sickly?
What’s the difference, my Aunt Zhang?
Finally, everyone assigned her the job of collecting firewood, and Ling Xue had no choice but to accept it, mainly because there was really not much fuel left at home.
"Xiaobao, let's go collect firewood together!"
Ling Xue had no motivation to be alone, so she called Xiaobao away, who was digging everywhere with a small shovel. It was a waste of his energy anyway.
This time Ling Xue brought more than a dozen woven bags, which could be used to pack up small pieces of firewood and take them away, unlike last time when she missed out on a lot of thatch.
Ling Xue didn't want to go to other people's fields to pick wool anymore. She planned to go to a small hill farther away to see if there were any bushes or other plants left.
"Sister Xiaoxue, where are we going today?" Xiaobao asked loudly in the back seat. He had to shout because he was afraid Lingxue couldn't hear him.
Ling Xue tilted her head slightly and replied loudly, "Go to Little Stone Mountain!"
Xiaobao fell silent. What else was there on Little Stone Mountain besides rocks? It definitely couldn't be fun. Since Ling Xue had finally brought him out, he decided to be generous and not object.
Of course, even if he opposed Ling Xue, she would not pay attention to him.
Xiaobao knew this. Although Ling Xue seemed easy to talk to, she never changed her mind once she made up her mind. This was something Zhang Xiaobao had personally experienced.
Otherwise, how could Zhang Xiaobao be so obedient? He has a strong personality, okay?
Neither of them reached the small stone hill, but stopped halfway because they came across a field of reeds.
Of course, this patch of reeds has been completely dried out.
However, this is not a problem. Once it is completely dried, they can be burned directly.
Ling Xue parked the tricycle on the side of the road near the reed ditch and asked Xiaobao to sit on the tricycle and watch while she went down to collect the reeds.
With her back to Xiaobao, Ling Xue started collecting the fruits. She was not greedy and only collected one bundle at a time. Her small tricycle could not carry much.
That's okay, let's put it away first. When people need fire to cook later, the thatch on the roadside will be valuable.
Ling Xue felt that she had taken the initiative today, and whoever took possession of something first would own it.
Most people don’t realize this now, or maybe they do but don’t have time to collect it. In any case, Ling Xue will not miss such good firewood.
Besides, reeds have many uses, maybe Zhou Kai and Uncle Zhang can use them too.
There are about five or six acres of reeds in this ditch, and now they all belong to Lingxue.
Because Ling Xue used the collection technique, she could collect reed seeds and reed seedlings from time to time, and Ling Xue collected them all without hesitation.
She planned that when conditions improved, she would find a suitable place to plant reeds again to prevent such a good species from becoming extinct.
