The journey back was safe and smooth.
After wandering back to his room, Xiao Han didn't even take off his clothes, so he threw himself into bed and went to sleep! There was just a spot under his ribs that was red, and it hurt when he accidentally touched it!
"Hiss... Isn't it enough for a woman to learn chess, calligraphy and painting well? How can there be any self-defense skills here? Oh, it really hurts, Panpan did something really stupid! Murdering her husband? Poor Taoist Master Sun is not here either. I will definitely do it tomorrow.
Point thirty-seven for a compress..."
After gently touching the injured area, Xiao Han muttered and went to sleep, but he didn't know that Xue Pan next door was tossing and turning.
"Did you hit him too hard just now? But I didn't mean it just now... He insisted on being with relatives, so they accidentally hit him!"
"Hey...if I had known better, I would have let him kiss me, and I wouldn't have lost a piece of meat..."
"Should I go see him now? Isn't it too late?"
As soon as she plucked up the courage to sit up from the bed, Xiao Ai was woken up by Xue Pan on the other small bed in the room.
Sitting up and rubbing her hazy eyes, Xiao Ai asked vaguely: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you sleeping?"
Xue Pan was startled and hurriedly hugged the quilt and said: "No, it's okay! Go to sleep!"
Xiao Ai was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes because she waited too late for Xue Pan at home and was already very sleepy!
Falling down on the bed and finding a comfortable position, Xiao Ai murmured: "Okay, miss, you must be tired when you come back so late, so you should go to bed quickly."
The courage Xue Pan had just summoned was interrupted by this, and he immediately disappeared without a trace. He had to lie down again and promised: "Okay, okay!"
The room was extremely quiet. Xue Pan lay on the bed with his eyes closed. He thought for a while about Xiao Han who was accidentally injured by him, and for a while he thought about the charming scene between the two of them in the carriage, and finally fell asleep.
Autumn mornings are busy. Early in the morning, as soon as it gets dark, various sounds can be heard outside.
Recently, God has shown favor by not causing trouble due to rain during the autumn harvest. This makes the farmers very happy, so they seize the time to dry the grain and store rations for the winter.
Logically speaking, this is a good thing!
However, if it doesn't rain, the water in the stream next to Xiaohan Paddy Field will also decrease.
Seeing that the water level of the stream was more than half lower than in summer, Ren Qing finally couldn't sit still and decided to build an earthen dam downstream to prevent insufficient water from affecting these precious rice.
So, early this morning, there were people outside carrying earth to build the dam.
Xiao Han, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by the movement outside and lost his temper randomly! However, he accidentally touched a painful spot and immediately screamed, holding his waist and gasping for air.
Butler Lu, who hurried over after hearing the sound, thought it was an injury sustained yesterday when he went out and was furious! He was about to take care of Xiaodong and Lengzi, but was stopped by Xiao Han.
"Forget it, I didn't get hit by anyone, I accidentally hit him!" Xiao Han grinned and said to Butler Lu.
"It hit? Okay, how did it hit that spot?" After hearing this, Butler Lu, although he still had doubts in his heart, saw the awkward look on Xiaodong's hesitation behind him, so he had the good sense not to ask further questions and hurried over.
Help him.
In fact, Xiao Han's injury has improved a lot after recovering from last night. It's just that he was too angry when he got up in the morning, so he hurt himself again. He only rested for a while and then recovered.
Shaking his body slightly and feeling no discomfort, Xiao Han slowly walked out of the house and casually asked Butler Lu if those guys from Qinling had come back here.
"Master Marquis, the hunters you mentioned did come last night. The old slave has followed your instructions and given them double the reward. These people were so happy that they hurried home without even taking a few bites of the meal.
, so now there’s not a single one left, they’re all gone.”
Xiao Han snorted, nodded and asked Butler Lu: "What about Daniel? Is he still in the Taoist temple?"
Steward Lu cupped his hands and replied: "Returning to the Marquis, the man named Daniu went back to the Taoist Hall to tidy up after dinner, and then went to Qinling. I heard from him that Taoist Sun has a long journey, and there is no use for him to stay here.
It’s better to take care of the medicinal materials.”
Xiao Han touched his nose and whispered: "That's good. After autumn, food will be hard to find, and wild animals will inevitably come out. He went to go with Liuzi, and he happened to have a companion. When he went to see the medicinal materials another day
Go and see him again."
Butler Lu nodded and said yes with a smile.
Unknowingly, the person had walked out of the yard and onto the road outside.
Xiao Han raised his eyes and watched the people in the distance carrying earth to build a dam. He suddenly became interested, turned around, and led these people straight towards the crowd.
The place Ren Qing chose to build the dam was downstream, that is, close to the edge of the rice fields. The water surface here was much wider than above, and the stream flow was also slow. Building an earthen dam here could also store more water.
The creek is not too big to begin with, so it is very simple to build an earthen dam.
Just stack the larger stones one by one, then fill the gaps with small stones, and finally seal them with soil.
When Xiao Han came here, the dam had been half built, and Ren Qing was also moving stones. However, the higher the dam was stacked, the faster the water flow. If these stones were thrown, they would soon be washed away by the water.
"Brother Ren, if you had known we would have brought cement here! First build a wall on the shore and throw it directly into the water. That thing is strong and will never be broken!" On the shore, a dark-skinned man wiped his sweat and said to the person in front of him.
Ren Qing shouted loudly.
Panting, Ren Qing looked at the water and replied angrily: "Huh...it can't be broken! But wait until the flood season, you go down and fish it out? Stop talking nonsense! Work quickly!"
The man was not angry after being scolded, he just scratched his head and laughed twice, then got up and continued working.
Xiao Han found a clean place and squatted down to watch them working. After several experiments, Ren Qing finally blocked the stream and stopped the water flowing upstream. The water downstream quickly receded, and he probably had to wait for the upstream water to flow.
Only when the water overflows the earthen dam will some recovery occur.
"Xiao Han, Xiao Han~"
This kind of group activity is interesting. Just when Xiao Han was enjoying it, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. He stood up and looked back. It turned out that Xue Pan went to his room and couldn't find him, so he searched all the way here.
He jumped up and waved to her vigorously. When Xue Pan saw Xiao Han jumping up and down, he felt relieved and hurried over in small steps.
"Why did you come here so early in the morning?"
"It's okay, I just came to see the fun!"
"Well... I didn't break you yesterday, right..."
"Ahem, how is that possible? I'm so strong, how could I be broken by you? It doesn't hurt at all, really!"
As he spoke, Xiao Han raised his hands and made a bodybuilding pose towards Xue Pan! Butler Lu, who was looking at him, rolled his eyes. Who just screamed like a pig?
Seeing Xiao Han's funny look, Xue Pan covered his mouth and chuckled a few times, then stretched out his hand to poke at the spot where he hit yesterday. Unexpectedly, Xiao Han's expression immediately changed and he quickly put down his hand to block it.
"Ahem, hey? Panpan, you've never touched a fish before, right? Come on, I'll take you to fish now! It's fun!"
"Taking fish? It's so dirty. What fun is there?"
"Why is this so dirty? I can tell you that the fish you catch by yourself is a hundred times more delicious than the ones you buy! If you're embarrassed, let's go downstream and find a place where no one is around to get into the water again!"
