After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

Lan Yueting, Su Yan, and Gu Qingrou had already taken half-meter-long machetes and started chopping branches from nearby dry trees like Zhang Liu.

Lan Yueting and Gu Qingrou were responsible for chopping them, while Su Yan was responsible for holding them back and forth and stacking them.

They also planned to use the firewood to pile up a simple surrounding circle.

Nine people can sleep in it, which serves as a simple windproof function.

As for Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying, they had come here on their own, so they went straight down the mountain with two knives.

Due to the existence of the bamboo forest, there is a natural half-meter-wide path in the normal forest.

The two planned to look for the bamboo fungus Zhang Liukou mentioned on the way. If they could collect it successfully, then everyone could eat some mushroom stewed with mutton soup tonight.

"Sister Wanying, what were you and Zhang Liu doing last night?" Walking on the road with the head maid, Xiang Lingying hesitated for a few seconds, and then asked about what had been on his mind.

"Miss... I like Zhang Liu, so I want to marry him with you, is that okay?" Xiang Wanying stopped and then said loudly: "Please allow me!"

…………………………Dividing line!

The Chapter 5 update was also finished that day.

Well, I'm a little tired. After all, I'm a part-time writer.

I left a special message just to celebrate myself, because this is Chapter 26 of the monthly ticket reward, which means half of the monthly ticket reward I owe has been removed.

Great news!

From now on, Xixi will work hard to update [-] words every day. Thank you for your support.

Chapter 319: After becoming arrogant and no longer arrogant, it will be difficult to defeat.

After hearing what his head maid said, Xiang Lingying turned to look at Xiang Wanying behind her who stopped after speaking.

Then her face showed a bit of confusion and surprise.

I feel the pressure of my eldest lady’s gaze.

Xiang Wanying slightly pursed her lips that were dry due to nervousness.

Then she repeated what she just said again: "Miss, I want to marry Zhang Liu with you!"

Saying these words, Xiang Wanying also went through a psychological struggle.

The source of the struggle in her heart lies in asking Lingying to participate in the hunt.

The firmness and seriousness shown by the other party at that time made Xiang Wanying know that she should no longer make decisions about the other party on her own.

What finally forced her to make up her mind was the recall of the "frozen feet" incident between Anya and Zhang Liu just now.

Zhang Liu's tenderness and unconditional care for Anya at that time made Xiang Wanying understand what time was short of.

"Sister Wanying, what do you mean is that your investigation of Zhang Liu is complete, so he can be my boyfriend?" He spoke slowly, and Xiang Lingying's expression gradually became serious.

This is something that involves major events in your life.

There was no room for her not to confirm it carefully.

From the perspective of marriage, Zhang Liu is still in the category of love interest for Xiang Lingying, but is not as dependent as Xiang Wanying or even the best person to take care of in marriage.

"Yes, Miss, and during this time together, I have fallen in love with Zhang Liu." Seeing that Xiang Lingying did not show any resistance or other bad emotions at the first time, Xiang Wanying breathed a sigh of relief, and then she also Rousheng explained her words: "To be precise, it's not that I like him, but I am very sure that if I marry you with him in the future, I will live happily by his side."

There was one thing in her heart that she didn't say out loud.

That is... "Miss, let's work together to speed up. You don't know how loud the two sisters Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang made that night!"

"Well..." After hearing Xiang Wanying's words, Xiang Lingying nodded seriously.

Judging from her recent secret investigation of Zhang Liu, it is indeed certain that he is the kind of person who is very suitable for marriage.

Work carefully.

Think things carefully.

Be gentle with others.

"Then... okay!" He took a deep breath and said to Lingying: "Sister Wanying, please go and talk to classmate Zhang Liu... I'm waiting for his confession."

When she said the last two words, her cheeks were extremely red.

"Okay!" After receiving the accurate approval from her eldest lady, Xiang Wanying understood that her future marital happiness had reached 80.00%, and she was just short of beating everyone to the top.

Thinking of herself and the eldest lady spending time together with Zhang Liu, the smile on her face was so happy.

Then the two of them walked down along the naturally formed path along the edge of the bamboo.

But what disappointed Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying at the same time was that they could not find the bamboo fungus growing in the bamboo forest.

Even if they saw something white from a distance, after the two of them ran over, they would only see a lump of unpleasant mud smelling like soap.

There is also a relatively stiff black shell on top of the mud, which looks slightly similar to the previous bamboo fungus egg shell.

Although the master and servant of the Xiang family who live in the city have eaten bamboo fungus more than once.

They have even seen the bamboo fungus that was brought back with mud and soil by a special person to ensure its freshness.

But the two of them didn't know that the ripening time of bamboo fungus is usually in the morning.

Then in about two hours, the process of growing taller, opening the lace umbrella outside, and then completely fading away the bamboo fungus will be completed.

Now that they had arrived here in the afternoon, they could only see a pile of naturally decaying yellow-white mud.

The white mud that can be noticed is considered to have decayed relatively late.

More bamboo fungus has long since turned into the same color as the soil and fallen leaves, making it impossible to find them.

After searching to no avail, Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying could only walk back dejectedly.

At this moment, the western sky is already dyed with bright red colors, which means that dusk and night are coming.

It also means that tomorrow will be the same good weather as today.

At this moment, on the mountainside to the east of the hill, Zhang Liu had already lit up a bonfire.

He was busy building a simple stove with his head down and using large pieces of earth to prepare for the dinner later.

Around the bonfire is a wall that is missing about half a meter, covering an area of ​​[-] square meters and a diameter of about [-] meters. It is surrounded by branches and is still growing thicker.

This is a windproof heating circle completed by Lan Yueting, Su Yan, and Gu Qingrou together with the two sisters Qin Ruoshuang and Qin Ruoyan.

Over the past few days, they have also mastered how to quickly build walls.

That is to insert branches with a height of about one meter parallel to the ground. After the middle of the branches is filled with various weed branches, a simple natural wall is completed.

The one-meter-long branch was cut from the tree by Lan Yueting and others.

The weeds and shrubs used as fillers were collected by Qin Ruoyan and Qin Ruoshuang from the ground everywhere around them.

With cooperation, the whole process is quite portable and convenient.

At present, the five people are constantly increasing the thickness of this wall.

By the way, it can also be regarded as increasing the amount of firewood reserves.

"You're back." Zhang Liu had just finished lighting the fire. He looked up and saw the master and servant coming over dejectedly. Then he smiled and asked, "What's the matter? I feel like you are a little downcast."

"Well..." He raised his head and looked at Lingying with a somewhat sad expression.

She currently doesn't have much of a presence in the entire team, so she especially wants to show her usefulness.

As a result, the first time I took the initiative to collect bamboo fungus failed.

This was extremely bad news for Xiang Lingying, who was ready to accept Zhang Liu's confession and agreed.

"The bamboo fungus seems to have melted?" Under Zhang Liu's puzzled eyes, Xiang Wanying scratched her head and said in a low voice: "Although I don't know how to say it, it seems to have melted..."

"Huh?" Zhang turned his head and showed doubts on his face, who also didn't know that the bamboo fungus would rot.

"I know!" Just when the three of them were confused about this matter, Anya, who had gone up the mountain with her family to collect black truffles with her family before and had some knowledge about mushrooms, explained the growth of bamboo fungus next to the fire. .

After she finished explaining, she looked at Xiang Wanying and Xiang Lingying who suddenly understood and said with embarrassment: "Actually, I only remembered this after hearing what you said, otherwise you wouldn't have made this trip in vain. .”

"Miss Anya, you..." Seeing Anya taking the initiative to apologize to herself and the eldest lady, Xiang Wanying was a little dazed.

When will the other party start...

So easy to talk?

Chapter 2: Experienced boys are particularly skilled at it.

"What...what's wrong?" Anya felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Xiang Wanying.

She stretched out her hand to smooth her soft hair, and then asked in a low voice: "Did I say anything wrong?"

"No..." After taking a deep look at the girl in front of her who suddenly had a huge change in her attitude, Xiang Wanying shook her head slightly and said, "There is nothing wrong with what you said."

Feeling that something was wrong with the tone of the maid beside him, Xiang Lingying also turned his head strangely.

But after seeing that the other party had walked to the side with a smile to help collect branches and firewood, she also joined the team of picking up things.

When the sun gradually went down, nine men, eight women, and nine people sat together in a "circle wooden wall" surrounded by hay branches and began to enjoy a carbohydrate-protein meal of taro and mutton.

Their heads are not directly in the open air, but there is a roof as a shield.

This was made by the girls under the leadership of Zhang Liu after they completed the wooden wall. It has the function of completely reflecting heat and possibly preventing rain.

No light can be seen from the tight joints of the walls. The ceiling was completed before dark, so the holes on it are still a little big...

Since there was not much time left, Zhang Liu used a machete to cut off a moso bamboo that was about 20 meters long and a dozen centimeters thick.

First, remove all the branches and leaves at the joints, and then break them in half from the middle.

Having had experience breaking bamboo, he was extremely skilled in this matter.

But several other girls, such as Xiang Wanying and Lan Yueting, who had never seen the process of breaking bamboo, were impressed by the fact that Zhang Liu could directly open the more than 20-meter-long bamboo by just stretching out his hands and breaking off the two sides.

They all said "Wow" and their little eyes widened, obviously with a surprised expression.

This greatly satisfied a certain boy's extremely simple vanity.

Nine bamboo bowls were remade, and part of the bamboo was placed on the campfire to bake fresh bamboo juice to serve as a drink.

Zhang Liu split the remaining bamboo in half into strips of ceiling supports, and then secretly sighed in his heart.

Bamboo is indeed a good thing!

With the brackets made of bamboo and rattan windings, it is much easier to complete the ceiling work.

Basically, you only need to look for large green leaves such as palm leaves and banana leaves, then stack them on top of each other, press them with thinner bamboo strips, and tie them with tree bark.

As for the problem of supporting beams, it is not a problem at all when there is a magical plant called bamboo.

Zhang Liu just chopped another bamboo, and after breaking it in half, he got two straight beams two seconds long.

Just dig a hole and insert the bamboo directly into the hole.

The installation process is simpler.

The saying that there is strength in numbers is undoubtedly evident in this simple project that only requires strength to lift the ceiling...

The night gradually deepened.

Everyone had finished their dinner and were all sitting in the shelter. Gu Qingrou also made a small fence and blocked the half-meter gap left.

So after sitting down, their sight was blocked by the wooden wall.

If there is a problem with only part of the line of sight, people may feel that there is danger lurking on the invisible side.

But if the surroundings are completely blocked and there are companions around, then there is only a sense of security.

At this moment, the girls are sitting together watching the after-dinner program.

That was to see how the boy in front of him was pouring dirt in his hands.

After eating, I was bored, but I couldn't go down the mountain to chop bamboo to make wild boar killing tools.

So Zhang Liu planned to do other things to pass the time before going to bed.

He first made a square mold from a branch about the thickness of a finger, then evenly filled the mold with soil until it became a square piece, and then used the gentlest force to take it out.
