Tian Yuqiao's house was right next to Dr. Lin's house. Since it had just rained, the ground was neither dry nor wet. This way, it would be easier to dig out.

The work on this side of the road was in full swing, and Widow Li came over with a bolt to help. Although that little rascal Yu Zi couldn't do anything, he could guarantee that he wouldn't cause any trouble for the adults.

Mrs. Wang asked Yutang to leave the plugs at Aunt Chrysanthemum's house. Tian Yuqiao also brought Yuan Tong to Aunt Chrysanthemum's house to help boil some water for the workers who came to help.

It was almost noon when the pillar and Yuan Su came back in the mule cart. There was a lot of grain and ten pounds of pork. The butcher, seeing how much they sold, gave them extra sticks of bone with a pig's tail.

After unloading the cart, the pillar placed all the food that they had just bought into the West Wing's storeroom.

Tian chrysanthemum did not intend to take advantage of the Wang family. Even though they brought a lot of food down from the mountain, it was all stored separately in a small warehouse in the west wing of the train, separated from the food stored in the house.

"Uncle Zhu, big brother Xiao'er, you two drink water." Tian Yuqiao smiled as she poured two bowls of water for them and called out to them.

The pillar put the pork in the kitchen, picked up the water bowl and began to gulp it down. Yuan Ji also drank up his bowl of water and burped, still wishing to continue.

After resting for a while, the pillar and Yuan Ji went back to the Village Head's house to borrow a flatcar and go to the vegetable fields on the mountain to pull some vegetables.

Yutang went to call the Wang family back, and everyone began to prepare lunch.

Tian Yuqiao led Yuan Tong, Yu Tang and the plugs together. Each of them held a small wooden bucket in their hands, which was filled with half a bucket of water. The water was from an Emptiness Realm Lotus Pond with sugar added on it. This time, Tian Yuqiao was completely generous with it.

When the kids got to the construction site, they started to scoop up water for those guys. Everyone was thirsty after the morning's work. After drinking the water, they felt that their fatigue had been greatly alleviated. They could not help but drink two more bowls.

"Sis, it seems like there isn't enough water. Let's go back and get more?" The little guy frowned as he looked at the bottom of the bucket.

"Alright, let's go back and get more water. I think the water over there has already cooled down." Tian YuQiao smiled as she led the little fellows back.

On the way back, they coincidentally bumped into Pillar and Yuan Su. The little fellows were excitedly surrounding a cart full of vegetables.

That little guy, Yuan Tong, rarely knew so many friends. Now, not only was there Yutang playing with him, but also Yu Zi who called him little big brother. This made Yuan Tong smile all day long. This was much more interesting than staying on the mountain all day to count the radishes and cabbages.

This time, it was Pillar and Yuan Ji who pushed the flatbed cart to send everyone some cold boiled water with sugar, while Tian Ju, Lady Wang, and a few other kids began to clean up the vegetables.

The pillar wife neatly broke up the cabbages, while Mrs. Wang folded the beans. Tian Ju Hua led the children to help wash the cucumbers and eggplants, while Widow Li stayed in the kitchen to help with the cooking.

Looking at Yutang, Yutang and the plugs, as well as the little baldy, she could not help but burst into tears.

"Grandma Chrysanthemum, what happened to you?" Tian Yutang was the first to notice the sparkling light at the corner of Tian Ju Hua's eyes.

Tian Ju Hua quickly wiped the corners of her eyes and smiled at him. "It's fine. Grandmother is just too happy. Your family's future will be better. Grandmother is happy about this."

On the other side, the expression of the wife's face darkened. She sighed and said, "Sigh, it's all my fault that my stomach wasn't working. Even after so many years, I still haven't given him a child or woman. "Now, looking at how my mother likes children, I really don't feel good inside."

Mrs Wang comforted him, "You don't have to worry. In any case, you and Pillar are still young. There will be a lot of days in the future. Don't be in such a hurry."

A bitter smile appeared on the pillar's wife's face as she thought to herself, "How can it be so simple to have a child?" If he could really give birth to a child, wouldn't he have one long time ago?

Tian Yuqiao took out the leftover meat oil from his house and fried it into a wok. After that, a sizzling sound was produced, followed by the sound of the spatula colliding with each other.

Lunch was stewed with a kidney bean and a potato, and there was a fat slice in it, and you could smell it all the way from here.

The brown rice on the other large stove had also been stewed. Widow Li took the rice from the big pot and put it in the rice bowl. She then cleaned the pot and began to make the white cabbage stew.

Outside, a makeshift stove had been set up with a newly bought iron pot with a big soup pot of cabbage and bones in it.

The stew was made using the water from Tian Ju Hua's water tank. Tian Yu Qiao had made some preparations and added a lot of water from the lotus pond to the pot. Therefore, this dish was especially fragrant today.

The sound of a spatula came from the courtyard, along with the fragrance that continuously wafted out from the stove.

The children of the Tian Residence were not far away from the foot of the mountain. Since they had been busy since early morning, they naturally knew where the Tian Residence was.

Jiro wiped the mucus off his nose and said to Madame Li, "Milk, Second Aunt's family is going to build a house at the foot of the mountain. I heard that it was the village chief who brought some villagers to help out in the morning."

"That's right, Mother. I also heard that the salary for that day was 20 gold coins. Where do you think the second brother's family got so much money? How did they manage to build a house? " Madame Gao pouted.

On the other side, the Jiang Clan opened the curtain and entered the room as well, and told the Li Clan what she saw today.

"Mother, I just went over to take a look. Those are all the strong men from the village. And when I passed Tian Ju Hua's house, I could smell the smell of meat coming from the yard. " The Jiang Clan replied.

When Madame Li heard this, she was so angry that she immediately sat up straight from the bed, and said angrily: "Wow, this Second Brother's really got something up his sleeve. "No wonder they were so adamant about going to the mountain. The old bald donkey must have left them a large amount of silver."

"That's right, Mother. In my opinion, it's best if we pull them back. As long as they are still members of our Old Tian family, wouldn't they have to obediently hand over all the silver coins they have to their mothers then? " Gao Shi said.

"Yes, milk, second uncle's family pays those workers twenty cents a day, so why don't you tell me why she doesn't come to find my father and eldest uncle?" Jiro said.

"That's right! Second Aunt even stewed some meat for those people. I could smell it just now. It's old and fragrant."
