Hearing that, Lin Xiaorong froze, then nodded his head, and scooped out more water from the bowl of rice, luckily he had not ignited the fire yet, otherwise, it would have been too late to cook.
Looking at Lin Xiaorong's expression, Lin Su caressed Lin Xiaorong's hair and smiled. This time,'s little sister seemed to have become more sensible.
Thinking about it this way, Lin Su decided not to make Lin Xiaorong unhappy, and turned to look at the wall instead, and thought about how the surrounding walls were made by others. Lin Su saw that the sky wasn't too late, so he thought about building the wall, and at night, it would become a bit more peaceful.
Looking at the height of the branches, Lin Su really did not think that his sister would be this meticulous. She was even able to notice such small details, that Lin Hao had pushed down the earth wall previously, and then gathered the soil together. With some water mixed in, it made the soil feel slightly sticky, and happily inserted the branch into the ground.
The ground was also very tight. As Lin Su called Lin Hao over, he asked Lin Hao to water the place where he was standing, and when the ground was slightly wet, and when the tree branch could be inserted very safely into the ground, he let Lin Hao pour water over it from a different position. The two of them worked together, and very quickly, they pierced the tree branches into the soil, which was not sparse.
There were a lot of branches here, and a lot of Lin Su could surround the house. Of course, this was also because the house itself was not very big, after finishing, Lin Su looked at Lin Xiaorong's progress, and realized that Lin Xiaorong had already finished preparing the ingredients, he stopped for a moment and then put the branch down. He washed his hands, then helped Lin Xiaorong to bring the dishes over.
In fact, it was dry. If it was any family's new wife who cooked like this, she would definitely be scolded by her mother-in-law for not living a good life. However, in Lin Su's eyes, it was because this food was made after Lin Xiaorong had heard his words.
Today's dish was a radish. One was a spicy radish stick made by Lin Xiaorong, and the other was a sliced radish.
Since there were no ingredients at home, Lin Xiaorong was unable to make a lot of things, and the chilli sauce for the spicy radish strips were all taken from the big boss Chen. The original owner's memories told Lin Xiaorong that it had been a long time since he had eaten the sauce, and since there were no ingredients at home, there was only chili sauce and salt in the spicy radish strips.
Actually, this spicy radish soup required a lot of time, but it was too late to prepare it now, so Lin Xiaorong could only take it, or else, she wouldn't want to eat it right now.
The pickled radish had lost a lot of its moisture, but because it hadn't been pickled long enough, it still took a bite out of the juice.
Due to the lack of time, the radish strips didn't taste good enough. Now that he had taken a bite, there was only half a mouthful of water. Luckily, there was quite a lot of chili sauce, so he could dip it in his mouth and eat it.
However, even if it was only this, it was already a pleasant surprise for the three Lin brothers. Lin Hanshuang realized that the bamboo basket was very useful, and took advantage of the earlier time to make half of the bamboo basket's wall.
Lin Xiaorong raised his head to look at his brothers who were happily eating, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile.
After dinner, the sky had already darkened. Because the Lin Clan was poor, they did not have the money to light candles. Those were candles, even the cheapest candles in the county would cost two to three coins per candle!
Lin Xiaorong thought for a while, and then, the corner of his mouth curled into a smile as he piled up the remaining branches together. If it was too long ago, it would be snapped, and then, he would have to burn those branches. Shall I help you? "
Lin Su subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he thought that his sister had already grown a lot. The words she refused came out of his mouth in a different way, and in the end he said it out loud, "Alright, then let's begin."
However, when Lin Su was about to take the mud out, he froze. It was useless for such a long time, the mud had already dried up.
Lin Xiaorong did not mind it though. She would be very dirty if she just directly touched it with her hands, but of course, she did not know what it meant when she played with the ingredients all day long.
Lin Hanshuang realized that the light was not enough for him to tie up the remaining bamboo basket, so he ran over to help the two of them with the wall. Seeing that, Lin Hao started to bring more tea to the three of them, but it was just some physical work that did not require much thought to complete, thus, the family of four working together was completed very quickly, but of course, it did not refer to completing the entire wall, but rather, it was done in a small portion.
Looking at the wall, Lin Hanshuang felt really happy. This way, he wouldn't have to worry about others peeking at his little sister.
On the contrary, Lin Su felt that the door on the wall was not very pretty, and was preparing to get a door out one day. It just so happened that he had a good relationship with the youngest son of Carpenter He, and was working together at the Chen Family.
The wall was not that tall, but it was definitely not a height that could be easily climbed up, about 2.5 metres. The length of the branches were naturally insufficient, but Lin Xiaorong had caught two branches at her back, causing her act of climbing the tree to scare the three Lin Hanshuang brothers quite a bit. Other than her, the other three people truly had no other choice.
As a weak scholar, Lin Hanshuang had no way to climb up there. Lin Su did have a lot of strength, but Lin Su didn't have much agility, and was unable to climb up. As for Lin Hao, even if he climbed up there, he couldn't do anything.
Therefore, under Lin Xiaorong's manipulation, in the end, the Lin Clan's three brothers did as they were worried.
As for why was only a small part of it done?
The main reason was because the materials were gone. Not only was the soil gone, even the branches weren't enough. Thinking about it, the ground that they had dug out wasn't small at all.
