Gu Nian said so, and instead, Cuihua felt embarrassed, "No...no need, I just went ho not long ago, I can’t keep going back every day. Besides, didn’t you say you want to start the farm? Don’t we need to stay here?"
Gu Nian looked at the large area fenced outside, his eyes sparkled like stars, smiling happily, "Yes, we have to start the farm, so I want to take you ho, you see, these two hills are quite big, and there are two large ponds at the foot. If we utilize them all, the two of us alone won’t be enough. I rember you ntioned that you have a younger brother who is just a year younger than you, he’s 14, right? How about asking him to co over and help us?"
"Really?" Given the conditions at Cuihua’s ho, having her second brother over to help would definitely be beneficial.
"Of course it’s true, but we have to see whether your second brother and your parents are willing, so I’ll accompany you ho tomorrow and discuss it."
The reason Gu Nian decided this way is because Cuihua often ntions this second brother, who is also a hardworking, quiet young man.
She has secrets, and the people around her who can get close must be honest and reliable, most importantly, easy for her to handle.
Soon, the sound of bustling activity ca from outside.
"Let’s go out and take a look." Gu Nian called Cuihua along and headed outside together.
Just outside the gate of the farm, they saw Lin Dashan and Lin Xiangdong driving two big fat pigs over.
"Niannian, quickly check which pigsty to drive these pigs into? There are chickens, ducks, and geese coming soon." During this busy ti, and with the increasing inco, Lin Dashan beca much more cheerful, unlike when Mrs. Wang had just left, looking gloomy every day and worrying people.
"This way..." Gu Nian pointed to a place and called Cuihua, "Cuihua, quickly help open the pigsty door."
Once the two big fat pigs were driven into the sty, Lin Dashan and Lin Xiangdong finally had so free ti.
Indeed, there were quite a few people in the village selling pigs and chickens and ducks.
But most of the chickens and ducks were male, because the females must be kept to lay eggs.
Just like that, they kept busy until nightfall, before finally finishing.
With living creatures in the farm, it couldn’t be left empty as before. Dahu and Erhu were now permanently stationed in town, so Lin Sanshui had to pull his brother along, carrying bedding and a stove, temporarily camping out.
At dawn, Gu Nian got up, after breakfast, Cuihua went up the mountain to feed the chickens and pigs, while Gu Nian stayed at ho.
Seeing Lin Sanshui, Gu Nian said, "Dad, later I’ll accompany Cuihua to her ho, don’t forget to help feed the chickens and pigs on the mountain, okay?"
"Alright, you go. The bed we ordered a few days ago should be ready; I’ll go check. If it’s done, I’ll move it to the mountain later. I’ll be stationed there permanently, saving ti from going back and forth every day." Lin Sanshui was still hesitant; although this was most convenient, if he stayed on the mountain, his wife would be left alone with a few kids at ho, which worried him a bit.
Fortunately, Cuihua is strong, capable as a grown man, with her around, no need to worry about anyone causing trouble at night.
