Chapter 297 The new cowshed is built

Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been having some conflicts recently, they haven't had much of an argument, and it shouldn't have gone so far as to deny Ms. Li food.

Mrs. Chen nodded hurriedly: "Auntie, village chief, I really didn't try hard on Mrs. Li, I swear! If I don't feed Mrs. Li, I will be struck by lightning and die."

Seeing that Mrs. Chen was so anxious that she swore, Si Qing naturally believed her. However, before leaving, he still told Mrs. Chen a few words, don't bully your daughter-in-law casually, and everything will be well with the family.

Mrs. Chen kept saying that what her aunt said was true, she just felt a little uncomfortable. Mrs. Li seemed to be fine on weekdays, but why did she suddenly stop eating well and end up fainting from hunger at her aunt's house?

If she hadn't been so sharp-tongued, wouldn't she have been misunderstood by her aunt as an evil old woman who is rubbing her daughter-in-law?

Mrs. Chen was a little suspicious of whether Mrs. Li was playing tricks on her, but she also felt that Mrs. Li was not the kind of person who was too sneaky.

When Mrs. Li came home in the evening, Mrs. Chen didn't say anything. She just said that it would take a lot of energy to learn from her aunt and let her eat more.

Mrs. Li didn't know that Mrs. Chen was almost wronged due to what happened during the day. She thought that her mother-in-law was satisfied with her getting close to her aunt, and she felt even happier.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the cowshed in the village was finally built.

This cowshed took a lot of effort from the villagers. Normally, one wall of a cowshed is made of mud, and the remaining three sides are fenced with wood to prevent the cows from escaping.

But how could the villagers be willing to let a few precious cows live in such a simple way?

When building a cowshed, one would like to build it almost like a house for people to live in.

However, it is definitely not possible to build it this way. The ventilation in the house is not good, it is easy to smell, and the cow dung is not easy to clean.

So the guys came up with a good idea. They built three walls with mud, leaving only one wall and built a fence with wood. They installed a new trough specially made by Carpenter Zhao, leaving a door on the far right.

This is both ventilated and strong, and the most important thing is that there will be no air leakage from three sides.

In winter, the mountain wind likes to blow in the mountains, and the cold is so cold that it penetrates the bones. The villagers are reluctant to let their cattle be frozen.

After all, this is my aunt’s cow!

The new cowshed was very spacious, as big as a room and a half, and could accommodate four or five cows. Therefore, the Si Zhengping family's cows took advantage of it and also moved into the new cowshed.

On the day when we pulled the cow into the new cowshed, the weather was particularly good and the sun was shining brightly. The villagers happily pulled the cow out of the old house in Sidashan and walked around the village before pulling it into the new cowshed.

After entering the new cowshed, the first handful of fodder was fed by Si Qing.

In the words of the villagers, this is the cow brought back by my aunt. When moving to a new home, you must first recognize your aunt, so that you will not be afraid of life.

Si Jinbai had prepared the fodder in advance. When Si Qing wanted to feed the cows, he would bring it over. Si Qing only had to move his hands to grab four or five handfuls of the fodder and put it in the trough.

The four cows were not fed in the morning and were already hungry. As soon as Si Qing put the fodder in the trough, the four cows let out a cheerful "moo" and finished eating in two bites.

Upon seeing this, Si Jinbai quickly added all the remaining fodder to the trough, and then added a second amount of fodder before feeding the cows.

After feeding the cows, the matter of moving the cows into the new barn is basically over.

On the way back, the villagers walked happily together and began to discuss in low voices how to build a greenhouse next.

Si Qing, who was walking in front, saw the villagers pulling Si Zhengping away from each other and talking secretly.

So he and Li Daya quietly came over and prepared to eavesdrop.
