NOVEL NEXT Chapter 23 Log House Renovation
Lan Caidi and the others finished lunch and began to discuss the specific renovation plan. She wanted to use wooden boards on the roof, sides, and ground, so that they would not be afraid of wind or rain. They would be better protected from wind and rain, and they would not be afraid of snow in winter. The house collapsed.
Several more windows should be left at the back and sides for better ventilation.
Several rooms were separated with wooden boards in the middle. There were six of them in total, and they planned to create six bedrooms, a large living room, a bathroom, and a storage room. There is also a spare kitchen in case the weather is bad and it is not suitable for cooking outdoors.
After discussing it, they started construction in the afternoon. Jiuxiao and Ling Yu collaborated and started construction on the side of the thatched house first.
They used wooden boards to surround the outside of the thatched house, then used extra-long wooden stakes to fix the wooden boards and drill them into the ground, and wrapped the messy branches and hay on the sides inside.
Then use the same method to surround a circle of wooden boards from the inside, which is similar to the gusset boards used in modern model houses.
Because the area is relatively large, they worked all afternoon to enclose all the sides. Because the original main body of the side of the thatched house was a few large trees rising from the ground, so there was no need to worry about instability and collapse.
By the time Tianxuan Tianlie Sangge and his hunting team returned from hunting, Jiuxiao and Ling Yu had just fixed the last board.
They couldn't wait to come back to see the renovation of the thatched house. They were very happy to see the thatched house surrounded by fresh wood and its appearance changed instantly.
They put down the prepared prey, and several people gathered together to discuss it. Seeing that there was still a lot of wood, they worked together to wrap the top of the thatched house with wooden boards inside and out. There were more people and strength, and by dinner time By then, the top was all finished. Watching the thatched huts transform into exquisite wooden huts in seconds, they all felt a sense of accomplishment.
Lan Caidi looked at them busy and took on the task of dinner for the evening. They were given several horned beasts and deer beasts for hunting today. She asked Tian Xuan to help cut the meat of these beasts into pieces. Tian Xuan wanted to help with the barbecue, but Lan Caidian refused and urged Tian Xuan to follow They were busy together, and she also wanted to see the finished wooden house early.
Lan Caidi washed all the remaining mushrooms and made a large stone pot full of mushrooms and meat. The meat was in large pieces, just like modern iron pot stew. The orcs had a large appetite and should be able to finish it.
While making the stew, she skewered the divided venison piece by piece on wooden sticks, strung several large skewers, and roasted them on the fire, sprinkling salt and seasonings while roasting.
The aroma of barbecued meat and stew filled the air. Several male orcs who were busy in mid-air couldn't help but look at their little female. Looking at this capable little female, they didn't know how to compare with the tribe. How many times more industrious are the females. They felt the taste of happiness, and their work speed became faster.
"A Cai, the top is also finished. How about coming and taking a look?"
Tian Xuan flew in mid-air and shouted loudly to Lan Caidie who was grilling meat.
Lan Caidi saw several orcs flying in the air. Looking from a distance, it was like seeing a group of gods descending to earth. With their powerful wings and god-like speed, they capped the wooden house so quickly. It was really amazing. sharp.
She waved to them happily, looking at the brand new wooden house, her mood was also beautiful.
"Thank you for your hard work! Come down and have a rest after your work! Dinner will be ready in a moment."
Lan Caidi put her little hand to her mouth, wrapped it in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted to them, fearing that they wouldn't hear her.
Several of them came down to the creek to wash themselves, and then sat directly around the big stone pot. Lan Caidi gave each of them a bamboo bowl and a pair of chopsticks, and everyone ate it like hot pot.
"A Cai, what's the black and white thing inside here? It tastes smooth and has a meaty aroma. It's delicious!"
Tianxuan asked curiously while eating. This was his first time eating this thing, and it tasted pretty good.
"This is called mushrooms. The little sister also made us the Stewed Mushrooms of the Cuckoo Beast for us at noon. It tastes amazing! The meat tonight is also delicious!" Jiuxiao spoke before Lan Caidi could answer.
Lan Caidi looked at them with a smile, and she was also very happy to see them eating happily.
"Don't even look at whose little female did it. You won't be able to find the second one among them all!"
Sanger raised his eyebrows and looked at her little butterfly with an evil look on his face. He found that apart from his pairing mark, there were no other orc marks on the little female, which meant that Tian Xuan did not mate with the little female last night. He couldn't help but feel a little happy and a little bit proud.
Tian Lie still listened to their conversation coldly and did not talk to each other. He would occasionally chat with Ling Yu, and the two of them would discuss the renovation of the wooden house.
He glanced inadvertently and caught a glimpse of the little female staring at him motionlessly with soft eyes. His heart skipped two beats inexplicably. He, the cold prince, suddenly didn't know how to respond. Lan Caidi actually wanted to hear their opinions and suggestions on renovating the wooden house.
"Little female, tomorrow it's Jiuxiao and Ling Yu's hunting team's turn to go hunting, then Tianxuan and I will accompany you to renovate the wooden house."
Tianlie looked at the little female in front of him seriously.
"Well, okay, thank you for the hard work!"
Lan Caidi looked at this orc brother who looked exactly like Tian Xuan. He was very cold and never talked much, but he was always very considerate.
"And there I am! I'm still sitting here alive, don't even think about leaving me behind!"
Sanger looked at Tianlie with dissatisfaction. He just saw her little butterfly staring at Tianlie tenderly. He was not happy.
Tian Xuan rolled his eyes at Sangge, "It's cheating and cheating, one can stand up to the other!"
"Ha! There's something good here, but it's a pity you don't have it!"
Sanger pointed at his head and mocked Tianxuan. He picked up a roasted deer leg and took a big bite.
Lan Caidi didn't care how talkative they were, she ate the barbecue quietly, feeling that her mind was full of things, but she didn't know where to think of them.
By the way, she is thinking about building a fence around the wooden house and enclosing a large yard, which can protect privacy well. The yard is divided into a leisure area and a planting area. The leisure area is paved with flat stones or pebbles on the ground. The area enclosed by the planting area can be planted with flowers, vegetables, herbs, etc. It looks perfect in your imagination.
After dinner, Tianxuan still stayed with Lancai Die. Sangge lingered for a long time reluctantly, and everyone else went back to their caves to rest.
When Sangge was leaving, he took advantage of Tianxuan not paying attention while packing his things, and secretly kissed the sweet mouth of his little butterfly. The blue butterfly was still thinking about things, and before she could react, Sangge spread her wings and flew away. , Lan Caidi stamped her feet angrily, Sanger, this big bastard!
