Chapter 1703 Man of Few Words

"It's fine, Sister-in-law. He came back yesterday with some superficial injuries. It's not a big deal, he just needs to rest well. Just now, he insisted on helping me with the fence and accidentally tore his wound," Qiao Mei said as she ran out.

"Then he has to be careful! It takes 100 days to recover from a serious injury! Be more careful! You have to be careful too. Your stomach is already so big, yet you're still doing farm work! It's not easy to build the roof of the pigsty. When my husband comes back later, we'll come over and help you!" Liu Yun said.

"Really? I'm surprised he knows how to build the roof of a pigsty," Qiao Mei said to Liu Yun in surprise.

Liu Yun patted her chest confidently and said, "Of course! My husband is very capable! He knows everything! Just wait! When he comes back, I'll bring him over to your house!"

"Sure! Then I'll make a few more dishes tonight! Have dinner at my house tonight!" Qiao Mei said happily.

Qiao Mei went home and took out all the meat she had at home. Tonight, she would make them braised pork and sweet and sour pork ribs. The fish she made for Xia Zhe yesterday was still in the fridge too. These dishes should be enough for the guests.

Liu Yun did not go back on her word. She remembered what she said. As soon as her husband returned home, she hurriedly pulled him to Qiao Mei's house.

"Qiao Mei! Quick! We're here to help you! Oh my, what's that smell? it smells so good!" Liu Yun felt hungry the moment she smelled the food.

"I know a bit," Liu Dong said.

"Then build one for our family when you're free! I also want such a pigsty and fenced compound!" Liu Yun said.

"Alright," Liu Dong replied.

"How much do you think these bricks cost? Our family may not be able to afford it. If we raise livestock, I have to feed them every day! Sigh... this is not suitable for our family. I'm not as capable as Qiao Mei, so maybe we should forget it," Liu Yun said dejectedly.

"Alright," Liu Dong said.

"It's crooked! Move more to the left!" Liu Yun instructed.

Xia Zhe looked into the backyard through the kitchen window. He whispered to Qiao Mei, "I didn't expect Brother Liu to be like this at home."

"Do you know Brother Liu?" Qiao Mei asked.

"I do, but I don't know him well. He's from Zhao Wu's team and they know each other better. I was still thinking of calling Zhao Wu to ask him to come and help!" Xia Zhe said.

"Zhao Wu? I've forgotten that he keeps pestering us about coming over. Next time, we must set aside some time to host him at home," Qiao Mei said seriously.

"It's fine. He's not very particular. Actually, he just wants to come and deliver money to us," Xia Zhe said.
