Chapter 108 Discovering the Cave

Yang Dacui wiped away her tears and sobbed: "I am heartbroken. The head of the family led the villagers to escape. Although it cannot be said that he was desperate, he was in front of everything. But now the villagers have settled down and will not starve to death. They have begun to criticize us. As the head of the family, I feel it’s very unworthy!”

Shen Yunxi comforted her and said: "Okay, it doesn't matter whether it's worth it or not, and it can't be eaten as food! Come back and have a rest quickly. I asked Uncle Dahu to make a small guillotine with two knives, and quickly made the adobe bricks Cut the grass into small pieces. Let's make adobe bricks and build a house. The weather is very hot now, so we can sleep in a bamboo shed. If you don't have a quilt in autumn and winter, you will get sick if you sleep outside."

Zheng Guizhen also advised him: "Yes, Auntie, don't be angry. Clean the hay and then make bricks."

Under the persuasion of Shen Yunxi and Zheng Guizhen, Yang Dacui was not angry. "Yes, live a good life and don't care about those messy things!"

Zheng Guizhen took Tian Daniu to hunt, while Shen Yunxi took her children to help Tian Cun's family make bricks.

The old man and the children were responsible for mowing the grass, and soon a pile of grass was cut.

They poured water from the excavated ditch, added hay, stepped on it with their feet, and mixed the mud with shovels. Then they began to make clay bricks in brick molds.

When people saw Chief Tamura and his family starting to make bricks, they were very busy.

Everyone knows that if we don’t make adobe bricks now, we may freeze to death in the winter.

Village Chief Tian and his daughter-in-law Yang Dacui are no longer as good-natured as they used to be, so the villagers don't dare to bother Chief Tian too much now.

Anyway, when they saw what the village chief was doing, they followed suit.

The prepared mud bricks can only be dried in a cool place after the surface is slightly dry, otherwise they will dry and crack.

Because it is rainy in the south, you should pay attention to the weather. If it rains, you should cover it with a tarpaulin in advance.

Tian Daniu and Zheng Guizhen had been running in the mountains all day, and they were very familiar with the surrounding environment. They discovered a large cave in a secluded valley a few hundred meters away.

When he saw everyone making mud bricks, he hurried over. "Mom, I found a good place. This is a cave, very big."

Shen Yunxi was surprised and said, "Where is it?"

Tian Daniu said proudly: "Mom, come with me!"

Shen Yunxi didn't bother to wash her hands and followed Tian Daniu away.

Finally, Tian Daniu came to the cave and said proudly: "Mom, look, it's so big here!"

Shen Yunxi looked around. It was really remote here. It was blocked by the mountain in front of her and she couldn't see it. "It's very dark inside. Have you gone in and looked?"

Tian Daniu nodded: "I've seen it a long time ago. There are some bats inside. Drive them out. Isn't it convenient to dry mud bricks in such a big place?"

Shen Yunxi was very happy to hear this, but couldn't help but remind her: "In the future, it will be like caves and lakes. When you don't know if there is any danger, don't go in. Let me give it a try first and make sure there is no danger." Go in again. Do you know?"

Tian Daniu scratched his head and forgot about it. He smiled and said, "Mom, I understand. Is this cave useful? It's very dry inside. I think it can be used to dry clay bricks in the shade."

Shen Yunxi was very satisfied. She turned around and smiled: "Not only can we dry bricks in it, I think it can also be used as a warehouse for our family, and it can be used as a house temporarily."

"Huh?" Tian Daniu was stunned. "Warehouse? Mom, are we going to build a house here?"
