So after finishing her work in the pigpen and the like, she simply used the mud bricks from Zhang Liu's bamboo house to build a brick pile in the corridor.

Then put firewood underneath and start burning.

This time, Xiang Lingying used more than thirty bricks in total, and stacked them vertically to a height of more than one meter.

When she finished making the fire and started burning bricks.

Anya, Gu Qingrou, Gu Xixi, Song Shuyao, Su Yan, and Lan Yueting also returned to the mountainside shelter together.

After hugging and venting the excitement in my heart.

The six people simply stood together beside the fire and watched the spectacular scene of the bricks, which were originally dark brown or khaki, being engulfed by the fire.

Since Xiang Lingying was the only one who had eaten lunch, the others were still hungry.

So they placed nineteen pieces of taro next to the fire and started roasting them.

These taro pieces are made by cutting five taro.

Four of them are large, nine are medium, and the rest are small.

Chapter 337: Gu's maid with super high emotional intelligence

As for the two pheasants, their feet had been tied up and they were temporarily kept in Zhang Liu's bamboo house No. 2.

Only after the chicken coop is completed can it come out and change places.

As for Su Yan, the coffee beans in Lan Yueting's book baskets were placed in bamboo house No. 1.

Understand that this is a “late birthday present.”

Xiang Lingying was extremely happy and really wanted to have a sip of coffee to refresh herself.

In order to ensure sleep at night.

She would just have to wait until tomorrow morning before drinking again.

However, Xiang Lingying also pinched a bean in her hand. Just feeling its tough and round texture made her feel sweet in her heart.

Because this is Zhang Liu's guarantee to himself.

It is also a "goodwill" shown by the other party.

As a girl, Xiang Lingying really likes the feeling of being cared for by her loved one.

Just as she was looking at a black coffee bean in her hand with a silly smile, Su Yan was leaning against Lan Yueting, drowsy.

The master and servant Gu Qingrou and Gu Xixi looked at the birthday gift of coffee beans in Xiang Lingying's hand with envy on their faces.

They understood better than anyone else that this bean was not just a simple coffee bean for the Xiang family's eldest daughter...

But it's a deep feeling.

As for Song Shuyao, she stood beside Anya with a conflicted look on her face.

After being treated coldly and "politely" just now, she wanted to find a reason to have a good talk with the other party to break this weird atmosphere.

At this moment, Anya herself didn't notice Song Shuyao beside her at all.

She was concentrating on thinking about how she would eat more taro cubes later.

Throw away the small pieces of taro!

That stuff is just leftovers, used to fill gaps between teeth after a meal.

But eating the big one first definitely won’t work…

Touching her chin with her fingers, Anya began to think about the disadvantages of eating a large piece of taro first.

That is, the large pieces of taro are not easy to eat, and the black skin on the outside is lost too quickly.

The inside is not easy to cool down, so in order to ensure that it does not burn your mouth, the speed of eating will be significantly reduced.

So only two medium-sized taro cubes are needed to make more than one large serving.

But if you consider the cost-effectiveness and the crispy texture after baking.

The big taro cubes must be on top of the medium taro cubes...

However, if you choose medium taro first and large taro second...

There might be a shortage of large taro with only four pieces.

Just as Anya was counting the abacus beads wildly in her mind.

Suddenly, a slight crackling sound came from the pile of bricks in front of her, which was more than one meter high.

Most of the people currently around the fire were either thinking about men, drowsy, or lost in thought.

So they didn't notice it at all.

Only Song Shuyao, who occasionally glanced at Anya, noticed the sound.

Looking towards the fire, she immediately noticed that there was a crack on the brick at the bottom of the pile of bricks heading towards her.

And the flames continued to lick in from the inside.

It is obvious that the brick was burned and cracked.

Although I don't know what this means.

But based on her experience in playing "Jade Stack", Song Shuyao instantly judged that the pile of bricks might fall down.

There was no hesitation.

She put her arms around Anya's slender waist and pulled her to the side.

"Hey?!"

Anya, who was already preparing to stuff the small and medium-sized taro pieces into her mouth, was completely unprepared for Song Shuyao to do this to her.

In order to ensure that she would not fall, she was forced to step back half a meter.

Turning her head to look at Song Shuyao, who still had her arms outstretched, Anya's eyes showed confusion.

She didn't know what the other person's situation was.

The next second, a pile of bricks more than one meter high collapsed towards Anya.

By the time she noticed, the bricks had already fallen to the ground with a crackling sound.

The half-meter space she retreated back provided her with a very good buffering effect.

Anya is fine.

But two of the bricks at the top hit Song Shuyao.

Fortunately, she was wearing Zhang Liu's sheepskin coat.

The natural fall of a few bricks is not enough to break the defense.

But this was enough to scare Song Shuyao so much that she shrank back a long distance.

After all, the scorching temperature up there is no joke.

It was not until this moment that the other four people realized that the pile of bricks had collapsed.

But for a moment everyone was stunned.

"Song Shuyao, are you okay?"

Anya quickly realized that the other person pushed her in order to help her dodge.

She took a quick step forward. Having been burned by fire before, she looked at Song Shuyao nervously and asked anxiously, "Are you burned? There is egg yolk oil in the book basket..."

"It's okay..." Reaching out and touching the sheepskin coat, which seemed to still have the warmth of bricks, Song Shuyao said with lingering fear, "Fortunately, this coat is thick enough..."

It was not until this moment that the other girls all reacted.

They walked around the hot bricks on the ground, then approached the two men and began to ask about their injuries.

"I'm really fine!"

Faced with everyone's concerns, Song Shuyao shook her head to indicate that she was absolutely fine.

Then she pointed to the broken bricks still in the fire and said, "I just saw the bottom bricks were broken, so I was worried that it would collapse."

"Well...thanks to you."

He looked at the place where he had just stood, which was already emitting steam from the hot bricks.

Anya showed a hint of luck on her face.

The little heart in the chest cavity is beating non-stop.

If she was crushed by so many bricks, she would be in big trouble...

“I didn’t expect the bricks to give way.”

After confirming that Song Shuyao was fine, Xiang Lingying looked at her and began to explain.

There was deep remorse in her tone.

As a stacker of fired bricks.

Now that this unexpected accident has occurred, Xiang Lingying knows that he has a great responsibility.

"It's good that everyone is okay." Song Shuyao said with a smile, then she looked at the taro and bricks on the ground and said, "What should we do now?"

Gu Xixi looked at the group of little girls in front of her who were barely calm but essentially on the verge of chaos. After a little thought, she said, "Leave this to me. You guys go to the bamboo house and rest first..."

Speaking of it.

Gu Xixi noticed that Xiang Lingying, the eldest daughter of the Xiang family, had a guilty look on her face, and then she changed the subject and said, "Miss Xiang Lingying, can I ask you to stay and help?"

"Uh-huh!"

In response to Gu Xixi's request, Xiang Lingying immediately nodded and agreed.

After the other four people entered Bamboo House No. 1.

Gu Xixi and Xiang Lingying also began to clean up the scene.

The first thing to do is to control the fire.

This is very simple.

All you have to do is use a stick to spread the burning wood into the muddy mud nearby.

The next thing to deal with is the total number of bricks on the ground, which is thirty-five.

They are more troublesome...

Chapter 338: Anya, After All the Calculations, Still Eats Less

Although these bricks have been stirred up by the muddy ground and a lot of white mist has been released, it seems that they are in a stage of continuous cooling.

But it is still extremely hot and you should never touch it directly with your hands.

The way to deal with this is to move a few bricks closer to the bamboo corridor.

This prevents it from igniting the bamboo or scalding it to the point of bursting.

Afterwards, just wait for the bricks to cool naturally.

Finally, it’s taro.

This task was assigned to Xiang Lingying by Gu Xixi.

The taro needs to be pricked up from the ground with a long, thin stick, then placed in an earthenware plate and sent to the bamboo house as lunch for Anya and the others.

Before letting everyone go in to rest, Gu Xixi had already thought of the entire process.

However, in order to reduce Xiang Lingying's "sense of guilt".

She still chose to ask the other party for simple help.

Otherwise, with the thinking of this young girl, she would definitely blame herself very much.

The maid of the Gu family, who was already "as old as" 19 years old, used a stick to push away the bricks.

While smiling, he glanced at Xiang Lingying who was smiling because he was able to work.

And inside Bamboo House No. 1.

Anya sat down to rest while secretly looking at Song Shuyao beside her.

If we were to divide the bamboo house into “groups” right now.
