Hearing Zhou Xiaoyu’s words, Wei Chiyu subconsciously looked towards the house and saw Zhou Xiaoli on the roof.

His eyebrows twitched.

Hence, he turned around and said to Zhou Xiaoyu, “You don’t have to thank me.”

Zhou Xiaoyu tilted her head. “But Sis said that Big Brother scared away the bad children who bullied Father away. No matter what, you helped Father. I should still thank you for it?”

The corners of Wei Chiyu’s lips curled up imperceptibly. “Okay, you should listen to your sister.”

With that, he walked into the Zhou residence.

Liu Fengfeng, who was hiding at the door, froze in fear. When Wei Chiyu passed by him, he immediately ran out.

“Zhou Xiaoyu, aren’t you afraid of him? Everyone in the village says that he eats children!” Liu Fengfeng was terrified.

Zhou Xiaoyu pouted and blinked. “Did you see him doing that?”

Liu Fengfeng shook his head.

“Then how do you know it’s true?” Zhou Xiaoyu continued.

This time, Liu Fengfeng was stunned by the question. His little head felt like it could not comprehend the question.

Zhou Xiaoyu’s childish voice sounded again. “Sister said that the person who believes the rumors without a doubt is a little fool.”

Wei Chiyu, who heard the little girl talking from outside the house, could not help but twitch his lips.

“Can I help you?”

Hearing someone talking, Zhou Xiaoli turned around and saw Wei Chiyu standing below and looking up at her. The sunlight shone through the gaps between the thatch and landed on half of his face.

Before Zhou Xiaoli could say anything, Wei Chiyu walked over and said, “Let Uncle Zhou come down. I’ll do it.”

It was clearly a young man’s voice, but it sounded mature. After a long time, Zhou Xiaoli recognized it to be a standard low masculine voice.

When Zhang Lan heard the voice, she put down the needlework in her hand and supported herself against the wall as she walked out of the house. “It’s Little Wei.”

Wei Chiyu nodded at Zhang Lan and quickly climbed onto the roof.

Zhou Xiaoli was not a pretentious person. Coupled with the fact that repairing the roof was really not an easy task, she immediately thanked him for his generosity.

With Wei Chiyu’s help, the repair was done at a much faster speed than before.

It was still early when they finished repairing the roof of their house. There was still a lot of thatch left in the house as well.

Looking at the Liu family’s house, Zhou Xiaoli decided to help them strengthen their roof as a form of repayment.

She then told Zhang Lan of her thoughts.

After hearing it, Zhang Lan nodded in agreement. “That’s true. No matter what your aunt does, your Uncle Liu treats us really well. Neighbors should help each other.”

Originally, Zhou Xiaoli did not want Wei Chiyu to help repair Uncle Liu’s house. However, before she could speak, Wei Chiyu had already carried the ladder to the Liu Family.

After Zhou Xiaoli informed Zhang Lan, she and Zhou Yu carried the thatch and rushed over.

Liu Liangcai’s house had been repaired before. They only needed to reinforce the weak spots now.

Therefore, by the time Liu Liangcai returned home from work, they were almost done.

Seeing Zhou Xiaoli on the roof, Liu Liangcai cried out in shock. “Aiyaya, Little Li, why are you so stubborn? Come down quickly, come down quickly.”

As he spoke, he put down his tools and was about to call Zhou Xiaoli down when he saw Wei Chiyu’s head appear from behind.

He could not help but exclaim in surprise as well. “Ah, Little Wei, you’re here to help too?”

Wei Chiyu only nodded and didn’t say anything.

Zhou Xiaoli was already used to it. Wei Chiyu didn’t seem to like to talk much. They had been repairing the roof together for some time but he didn’t open his mouth to talk at all unless it was necessary.

Zhou Xiaoli could only smile and say to Liu Liangcai. “My family’s house has been repaired, and there’s still a lot of thatch left. I saw that it was still early, so I wanted to help Uncle Liu to repair your house as well. Wei Chiyu happened to pass by, so he also came to help.”

After Zhou Xiaoli finished speaking, Wei Chiyu also moved over from his area and said softly. “Done.”

It turned out that while they were talking, he had already reinforced the last section.

The two of them climbed down from the roof.

Liu Liangcai thanked them profusely.

At the same time, Lin Xiujuan had returned from the field. When she saw the two of them coming down from her roof, she hurriedly ran home.

Liu Liangcai hurriedly smiled and said, “Mummy, we have to thank Little Wei and Little Li. They’ve already repaired our roof. Hurry and get two bowls of water.”

Lin Xiujuan pursed her lips and wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t. She turned around and walked into the kitchen unhurriedly.

Wei Chiyu said that there was no need to thank him and left.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaoli also said, “Uncle Liu, there’s no need to trouble yourself. Mother is still waiting for me at home to brew medicine. I’ll leave first.”

With that, Zhou Xiaoli bade farewell and left.

After leaving, Zhou Xiaoli called out to Wei Chiyu, “Hey! Wei Chiyu, wait a moment.”

Wei Chiyu turned around and quietly waited for her to walk over.

When Zhou Xiaoli arrived in front of Wei Chiyu, she realized that he was a head taller than her.

Hence, she took a step back and raised her head slightly to look at him. After thanking him, she said, “We have a lot of rain here. I still have some thatch left at home. Why don’t you take it home and strengthen your roof as well?”

Although Zhou Xiaoli did not know why Wei Chiyu had come to help her suddenly, she never liked owing favors. Since he had helped her, she wanted to give him a heads-up as well.

After hearing Zhou Xiaoli’s words, Wei Chiyu’s amber pupils moved. He pursed his lips and spoke up after a while. “It doesn’t make a difference whether I repair it or not.”

Zhou Xiaoli had a strange look on her face, but she didn’t say anything else. After all, they weren’t that familiar with each other, so after a polite goodbye, Zhou Xiaoli returned home.

A vegetable field had already been cleared in the courtyard.

As the saying went, ‘Radish in the first, vegetables in the second, and cabbages in the eighth and third season.’ At this time of the season, there were many vegetables suitable for planting.

There were beans, cucumbers, and spinach growing in their courtyard now.

In this world, there were many types of vegetables available. Moreover, as ironware was easily available, the people were used to using large iron woks to stir-fry vegetables.

However, they did not have an iron wok at home now, and they were still using a cauldron. When they earned sufficient money, they had to buy a large iron wok at the market.

It was getting late. At this moment, Zhang Lan and the two little fellows had started cooking porridge in the kitchen.

By the time Zhou Xiaoli finished washing up, the porridge was cooked. She made a few simple vegetable buns, which were basically two flat breads placed together with spinach in the middle.

In order to make it delicious, Zhou Xiaoli added some beaten egg to each bun.

She learned this recipe from the Internet and heard that it was a local specialty of Henan. The cooking method was simple and yet, delicious.

Just as they were about to start eating, Zhou Xiaoli thought of something. In the end, she took a vegetable bun and a bowl of porridge next door.
