Chapter 266 Concealing the Truth

Listening to Li's tone, Bai Yunxi nodded in appreciation,

"Your second sister-in-law is right. It's useless to go and argue with them. They can deny it and even accuse you of bullying them. What can you do with them?"

"For scoundrels, the more you fight with them, the more they will do what they want. They are just worried that they don't have a chance to come over. Besides, they are strolling in the woods across the street and haven't come to our house. How can you argue with them?"

Xiao Wu wiped his hands with a handkerchief and looked out,

"Anyway, we won't go out today, so don't bother."

Bai Anyi looked at Xiao Wu, then glanced outside, not convinced 's retort, "If we don't go out today, what about tomorrow, the day after tomorrow? Can't we stay at home all the time?"

"If we can't grind all the kudzu roots in the backyard today, we'll have to waste half a day tomorrow. As long as we don't stay idle, they can stare at us as much as they want. Tomorrow afternoon, we'll go into the mountains from the back door with my second brother to chop firewood, and try to prepare enough firewood for the winter within two days."

Xiaowu said, with a hint of coldness in his eyes,

"Mother and sister-in-law walk around the yard from time to time. They are willing to waste time. Can we stop them?"

How important it is to prepare firewood before winter, even a three-year-old child knows.

Bai Yunxi looked at Xiaowu, thought about it, and couldn't help curling the corners of his mouth. This kid wants to confuse the other party.

"Xiao Wu wants to deceive them?"

"That's right. If they really think they can take advantage of us by watching our movements, they are stupid.

Xiao Wu had a cold face and looked disdainful. Those people took the initiative to provoke them, so don't blame him for playing tricks.

Everyone looked at Xiao Wu's indifferent eyes and looked at each other. As expected, no one should mess with scholars. They are mean and mean.

After lunch, the family went to the backyard again to continue filtering kudzu root powder. During this time, they took advantage of the moment of drinking water and going to the toilet. After a while, he went to the front yard for a stroll, and then went back to the backyard to work.

When the sun went down, there was still a small part of the kudzu root that had not been finished. Just like Xiaowu estimated, he would have to work all morning tomorrow.

Bai Yunxi looked at the two baskets of kudzu root powder that had been dried, and there were still two jars of kudzu root water on the ground that needed to be settled.

"Okay, it's been a tiring day today. After dinner, wash up and take a rest. Tomorrow morning, I will pick out the starch in the jar and dry it. The remaining kudzu root has been finished in the morning. "

Bai Yunxi rubbed her waist, looked at the fruits of a day's labor, and estimated that there were more than 20 kilograms of kudzu powder.

After a tiring day, everyone was exhausted, and after dinner, they took a rest.

The next day, they continued to work, crushing and filtering the remaining kudzu roots, and taking out the precipitated kudzu powder to dry.

After processing the kudzu roots, they started to chop wood as planned and store firewood for the winter.

Just as Xiaowu guessed, there were always people pretending to pass by their house. When they saw someone in the yard, they would The footsteps kept on leaving.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. Bai Yunxi sat under the eaves and used her inner clothes to make a small nightgown for Yaya. It was soft and comfortable to wear when sleeping.

After looking down for a long time, she got up and walked around in the yard.

Bai Yunxi looked through the fence and glanced at the forest across the road. The fallen leaves in the poplar trees had been cleared away long ago, and the whole forest was bare. You could see the end at a glance.

In this kind of forest, let alone the Tibetans, even a mouse passing by could see clearly whether it had shed its hair.
