Time Travel: My Comfortable Life After Going to the Countryside

Chapter 54 Is this what it feels like to be alive?

It got stuck in the review process; it's been completely altered beyond recognition.

Liu Xiangyang went to the office, boiled a kettle of water, brewed a pot of tea, and leisurely took a sip, his mouth filled with the fragrance of jasmine tea.

There was a commotion at the door. Liu Xiangyang went out and saw several old women, some holding shoe soles and others holding cloth, preparing to knock on the door.

"Aunties and grandmas, what's the matter?" Liu Xiangyang asked.

"Inspector Liu, you're here so early! We've got nothing else to do, so we've come over to chat. Hope we're not disturbing your work," an older woman said.

"Welcome, welcome! I'm here to serve the people. It's not like I'm bothering you by coming to guide my work. I'm more than happy to welcome you. Please come in and sit down; it's cold outside." Liu Xiangyang ushered them inside.

After they sat down, Liu Xiangyang poured them a cup of tea from the teapot: "Here, have some tea."

"Good tea, jasmine tea."

"Inspector Liu, you go ahead with your work. We old women can take care of ourselves."

"That's perfect. I'll go back and fix up the woodshed in my yard. If anyone needs me, just let me know."

"Go ahead, we'll keep watch for you."

When Liu Xiangyang returned to the courtyard, Xue Bingbing and Le Qi had gone back to their own homes. When he came to their courtyard, he saw them making clothes for Liu Xiangyang.

Liu Xiangyang walked into the room and kissed all three of them on the lips.

"Our job today is to turn the woodshed into a wood house. Go to the village and borrow a cart to bring in the bricks, and I will build the walls."

When the three heard that Liu Xiangyang wanted to fence off the woodshed, they knew it was for their convenience, so they wouldn't have to get up so early every day, and it would also be much safer.

"Then I'll go borrow a cart," Le Yao said quickly.

"You're quite cunning, choosing the easiest job. I'm going to punish you." After saying that, Liu Xiangyang pulled Le Yao into his arms and rubbed her vigorously for a while before letting her go.

Le Yao went to the village to borrow a cart. Xue Bingbing and Le Qi changed their clothes and then followed Liu Xiangyang to the place where they had made bricks that night.

That night, Xue Bingbing and the others went home. They didn't know what Liu Xiangyang did afterward. Now, seeing such a large pile of bricks, the two of them were a little shocked.

Before Le Yao could bring the cart, the three of them gathered the bricks together.

After a while, Le Yao pulled the cart over. Liu Xiangyang told them to put the bricks together, and he carried the bricks onto the cart, dragging the cart full of mud bricks back to the yard.

When I passed by the office, the older women saw me and even came out to watch the commotion for a while.

"That Liu Xiangyang is really something. Now he has a job and is eating government food, and he's still so hardworking. It's just a pity. I wonder which little hussy will end up with him," an older woman said.

"That's right. I've mentioned to Liu Zhiqing four or five times that I wanted to introduce my eldest niece to him, but he always brushed me off. I have to bring my eldest niece over tomorrow so he can take a look and maybe he'll take a liking to her."

The other middle-aged women's eyes darted around, probably thinking the same thing.

Liu Xiangyang ignored them and made four trips in total to transport all the bricks back to the two courtyards.

The next task was simple: just stack the bricks up and wait until no one was around before Liu Xiangyang could fill in the gaps, which would also allow him to practice his brick-filling skills.

The three women handed over bricks, and Liu Xiangyang piled them up. With the four of them working together, the woodshed in Liu Xiangyang's yard was quickly completed. He made sure to build the woodshed a little bigger, making it more than ten square meters.

It was noon, and the group had a quick bite to eat, rested for a while, and then continued working.

The group arrived at Xue Bingbing's courtyard and built a woodshed of more than ten square meters using the same method.

"Alright, the main structure is now complete. You can go do your work. I'll open the door."

After the three women left, Liu Xiangyang used his decomposition ability to create a small door in the wall, just big enough for one person to pass through, and then made three more doors out of wooden planks.

Liu Xiangyang installed the door, and the entire woodshed was repaired. Seeing that there were still quite a few bricks left, he stacked them up for later use.

Just as the bricks were laid out, Roland pushed open the courtyard gate and walked over.

"Liu Xiangyang, I feel empty again. I want to experience the feeling of falling again."

Liu Xiangyang never refused such requests.

Liu Xiangyang led Roland to the office, locked the door, and went into the inner room. He saw Roland sitting on the desk, revealing a moon-white undergarment with two glimpses of snow-white skin peeking out from the sides.
