"Huai Ru, Granny Jia, I bought you 20 catties of white rice noodles. Take them and have a good New Year.”
Inside the house, Silly Zhu put down the noodles and glanced at Qin Huairu."Huairu, don't be sad. I believe you must have been tricked by that kid Xu Damao.
Don't worry, I'll beat him up later!"
Qin Huairu sobbed but did not say anything. Jia Zhangshi pushed the noodles back to Silly Pillar.
"Silly Zhu, do you want to be like Xu Damao? You want to use noodles to threaten my family?"
"Take it away. Our family doesn't need it!"
Seeing that Jia Zhangshi was about to return the noodles, Silly Zhu became anxious.
"Aiyo, who do you think I am?! Why am I like Xu Damao?”
"Please accept it. I'm giving this noodles to your family. I don't need money, and I don't need Sister Huairu. How can I be a bastard like Xu Damao!”
"Alright, I'll put down the noodles. You guys don't have to send me off.”
After saying that, Silly Zhu stayed behind and hurriedly left the door, not giving Jia Zhangshi a chance to refuse.
After Silly Zhu left, inside the house.
Qin Huiru looked at the 20 catties of white rice noodles that Silly Zhu had sent over and suddenly covered her face as she cried bitterly.
She thought about how much she had suffered and how much she had suffered for this little bit of food.
Qin Huairu sobbed as she recalled the scene.
Outside the house, Silly Zhu heard Qin Huairu's broken sobs and his heart clenched.""This Xu Damao! You're really something!"
Silly Zhu cursed in his heart, thinking that he couldn't just let this matter go.
He had to deal with Xu Damao properly!
……
On the other side.
Yan Jiekuang returned to his courtyard with the freshly cut bamboo.
Third Aunt was working in the house. When she heard the commotion outside, she came out to take a look and found that her Third Brother had cut down a long bamboo from somewhere.
"Third Bro, what are you doing?" Third Aunt asked curiously.
"Mom, I want to use this bamboo to make a fence for the vegetable field.”Yan Jiekuang turned around and said.
"You only know how to mess around all day long. Have you finished your homework?”Third Aunt said unhappily.
"Uh, I'll do it tomorrow."
Yan Jiekuang was depressed when he thought about his homework. He had graduated seven or eight years ago and hadn't read a middle school textbook in a long time. Besides, doing homework was not as fun as chopping bamboo.
Naturally, he would delay his winter vacation homework as much as he could.
"Play, you only know how to play every day. If you don't hand in your homework when school starts, you'll cry.”
Third Aunt cursed and turned around to enter the house.
Yan Jiekuang shrugged and went to the stove to get a chopper.
The bamboo he had cut back was a whole piece. It was very long. If he wanted to make a partition, he had to cut it into small pieces.
With the skills of a folk craftsman, Yan Jiekuang's hands were very steady. He didn't even need to think when he cut the bamboo. He used his muscle memory to divide the bamboo into small strips.
Moreover, his speed was very fast. His hands were almost non-stop. He never slashed a second time. This kind of smooth feeling made Yan Jiekuang very satisfied.
After cutting the bamboo into strips of suitable size, Yan Jiekuang carried the bamboo to the stove and started a fire to bake it slightly. This would make the bamboo tougher and easier to change shape.
After doing all of this, Yan Jiekuang began to weave the bamboo strips together, just like weaving shoelaces.
It was a little cold in winter, but Yan Jiekuang's cold hands were warm. He even took off his coat and felt warm all over.
Yan Jiekuang's hands were very fast. Hundreds of bamboo strips were strung together to form a big net. After repeating the same work, the vegetable field fence was soon completed.
They were laid around the vegetable field, forming a closed one-meter-high fence. It was neat and beautiful, like a piece of art.
Yan Jiekuang stood at the side with his hands on his hips, feeling very satisfied.
Yan Jiekuang was filled with a sense of accomplishment when he thought about how he had personally made such an exquisite partition.
Heh, I'm awesome!
"Third Brother, it's time to eat."
Inside the house.
Third Aunt came out and saw that there was an exquisite bamboo partition in the courtyard. She was stunned.
"Third Bro…Did you do this?"
Third Aunt's eyes widened as she looked at the bamboo partition in disbelief.
She had only been in the house for half an hour, and she had already made a partition?!
"Yes, I am." Yan Jiekuang smiled and nodded.
"Did you really do it?"
Third Aunt still couldn't believe it. She had thought that Yan Jiekuang was just fooling around, but she didn't expect him to be serious!
Moreover, the workmanship was so exquisite that it was not inferior to those old masters 'craftsmanship!
"I didn't expect our Third Brother to have such a trick up his sleeve! You're promising!"
Third Aunt was happy.
In this era, craftsmen were very popular and respected.
If one wanted to learn a craft, one would have to kowtow to the master. One could imagine.
Third Aunt was excited, but Yan Jiekuang was calm.
It was just a small test.
He could feel that the upper limit of his ability was not limited to this. It was just a bamboo fence, and he did not even display one-tenth of his skills.
If he was serious, he should be able to do more complicated things.
Yan Jiekuang was tired after he finished setting up the fence. He decided not to continue in the afternoon and was going to go fishing to relax.
……
On the other side.
In the Silly Pillar House.
After coming out of Qin Huiru's house, Silly Zhu lay on the bed and thought of Qin Huiru's pitiful appearance. He tossed and turned, unable to calm down.
The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt.
He immediately sat up from the bed.
"No! He couldn't let Xu Damao off easily.”
In Silly Zhu's opinion, Xu Damao must have forced Qin Huairu to agree to the canteen.
And even if this didn't happen, Silly Zhu had long wanted to mess with Xu Damao.
He had yet to settle the score with Xu Damao for Qin Jingru's incident last time, and now there was Qin Huiru's incident.
This new and old hatred added up, making Silly Pillar unable to swallow this anger.
He had to beat Xu Damao up!
Thinking of this, Silly Zhu got up and went to Xu Damao's house angrily.
