Chapter 185 - 185 Making a Swing
185 Making a Swing
She didn’t want her to go with her to Qingyun Academy.
“It’s still early. Give me the cold cakes. When they’re done, I’ll help bring them in.”
“Li Xiao also said that he wanted to pave a road so that it would be easier to go to the stream.”
“Let’s do it together, it’ll be faster!” As she spoke, Aunt Wang stretched out her hand to Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue did not refuse and handed her two buckets of cold cakes.
“Thank you.”
“But we don’t need to pave a road for now,” Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao, who was busy not far away.
He had already fixed up the side of the stream, so it would be more convenient to place the cold cakes there in the future.
“You can go back after placing the cold cakes. Erya still needs someone to look after her, and there are many things to do at home. I’ll pay you every ten days,” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“But…”
“Aiya, Aunt Wang, don’t worry! I don’t want you to work for me all day long, otherwise, that little salary wouldn’t be enough!” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Hehe, not enough?” Aunt Wang said with a smile.
She then walked towards the stream.
She placed the wooden buckets into the ponds and then covered them with wooden boards.
Aunt Wang turned to Lin Xiaoyue and said, “then I’ll go now. Call me if you need help!”
“I know. Take care, Aunt Wang!”
Only then did Aunt Wang leave.
Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao were talking about paving the road.
“You don’t need to do it. You’ve been busy for half a day, go to the courtyard and rest,” Li Xiao said to Lin Xiaoyue.
Lin Xiaoyue’s heart felt warm.
Just as she was about to say something, she heard Li Xiao continue.
“Go and get Qing’er and Xiaozhi to work.”
Boys should work harder, especially Qing’er.
He was born with a weak body, and his sister used to spoil him and didn’t let him practice martial arts.
If they hadn’t met Yue’er earlier, even if they could escape, that kid wouldn’t have been able to hold on for long.
In the past, he was not by his side and could not interfere in his affairs.
But things were different at the moment. Since they were together, he, as his uncle, had to train him more.
Xiaozhi followed Qing’er around all day long. He could learn other things, but he couldn’t learn the habit of not moving.
Lin Xiaoyue paused. She was amused by Li Xiao’s serious expression.
“Alright!” She smiled and replied.
“But, can you help me make a swing first?”
She had already chosen a spot that was perfect for a swing.
Not only the two children, but she also wanted to sit on a swing.
Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue questioningly
Lin Xiaoyue blushed a little.
“I think we can hang a swing on that big tree in our front yard.” Why was he looking at her like that? Why couldn’t she sit on a swing?
“Okay,” Li Xiao responded when he saw his wife blushing.
He was in a good mood.
“Let’s go,” he said. Then, he put down the hoe in his hand.
In the front yard.
Li Xiao found some tools and made the swing while Lin Xiaoyue and the two children surrounded him.
When Liu Shi returned, she saw Li Xiao climb up the tree, hang a rope on it, and instruct the people below to work with him.
“Aiyo, you’re climbing so high, be careful!” Liu Shi was shocked for a moment, and then quickly said to Li Xiao.
She was nagging her daughter about doing such things at this age.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled and dealt with her mother, happily continuing to work with Li Xiao.
