Chapter 21 Go to work

Chapter 21 Getting to work

The big tree Li Jing chose is strong but not very high. Jiang Xiaoxin is still worried about how to deal with this big tree, but she has already started working on it.

  Simply measure the size, make marks with an axe, and chop off a few pieces three times, five times and two times five times.

Jiang Xiaoxin on the side was dazzled by what he saw. It was true that Li Jing looked very light when he was chopping with the axe, as if he didn't use any strength, but he did the hard work easily, and he didn't look red or out of breath. .

He chirped, feeling a little unhappy in his heart, "Why are you so strong?" It's stronger than him, no, stronger than his father.

The well-behaved Jiang Xiaoya next to her also yelled "Ahhh" twice, not knowing what she wanted to say.

Li Jing turned her head and ignored Jiang Xiaoxin, but went to see Jiang Xiaoya.

As soon as she looked at Jiang Xiaoya, she smiled at her, grinned and shouted: "Mom, cool..."

That smile made Li Jing's heart melt, and she said with a crooked look: "Mom is here, little girl, be good, wait until mom is ready to take you to find fruit to eat!"

Jiang Xiaoya didn’t know if she understood it, but she waved her little hands and kept grinning.

Li Jing also had a deep smile in her eyes, and turned around with a smile to continue working.

Jiang Xiaoxin was originally holding Jiang Xiaoya, but now he put her down without any anger and let her stand alone.

“Brother is so exhausted from hugging you, and I haven’t seen you smile at me!”

 While complaining, those bull’s eyes couldn’t stop staring at Li Jing.

He wanted to say to Li Jing even more: "I've been busy helping out, but I haven't seen you smile at me!"

Jiang Xiaoya said "Ahhh" twice and shouted "Pot, pot", which made Jiang Xiaoxin's anger drain out in an instant.

He knelt down and hugged Jiang Xiaoya, but he still muttered "little heartless".

Soon, he was speechless. He was stunned by the crispness and neatness with which Li Jing did things.

Li Jing stood up the cut tree trunk, split it easily with an axe, discarded the bark, stood up the remaining part and split it again. It soon became a rectangular shape, and the split was extremely smooth.

 Made into this rough wooden board, the ax in hand was replaced with a kitchen knife.

 Use a kitchen knife to polish it slightly to get a flat and smooth wooden board, and then make tenons and mortises.

 This process does not involve any measurement.

 A total of two wooden boards and four table legs were made.

Two wooden boards are put together to form the top of a square table. The legs are relatively narrow, not much wood is used, and the work is quick.

 So, in a very short period of time, everything needed for a table was made by Li Jing. She didn’t install it immediately. She gathered these things together and moved them directly.

 “Let’s go, come back first, it’s time to get to work!”

 Jiang Xiaoxin opened his mouth and struggled to spit out one word: "Okay".

Back at the thatched house, Li Jing began to assemble the table. A beautiful wooden table was completed under Jiang Xiaoxin's eyes, but he was still shocked.

 The big bell of the production team rang, and it was time to start work.

 Jiang Xiaoxin was so shocked by Li Jing's operation that he forgot that he usually took Jiang Xiaoya to work. He handed Jiang Xiaoya to Li Jing blankly and left like a wanderer.

Jiang Xiaowen went to the other direction to collect medicines. There were more herbs there. During this period, he didn't run into Li Jing and the others again.

When the work bell rang, he had just returned from the mountain and hurriedly put the herbs in the same place. He did not join Jiang Xiaoxin and rushed to the gathering place alone.

On the other side, Jiang Xiaoxin didn’t regain his composure when he met the educated youth from the village working in groups. He, who was usually polite, was preoccupied with what had just happened and didn’t pay attention. He walked past them in a daze.

 Lin Qing saw Jiang Xiaoxin when she came from the small road. Seeing his appearance, she ran over and blocked his way.

Her voice was loud and sharp, "Xiao Xiaoxin, what's the matter? You're so distracted?"

 Jiang Xiaoxin raised his eyes, still looking dazed, "Sister Lin, I'm fine!"

 “Still saying you’re fine?”

Lin Qing roared angrily and grabbed Jiang Xiaoxin's slender arm. He frowned in pain.

“Look at you, your soul is gone now. Tell me, did your stepmother bully you?”

 Stepmother?

What emerged in Jiang Xiaoxin’s mind was the image of Li Jing, who looked thin and frail, holding an ax and cutting the tree trunk in half with one blow.

 He was startled and quickly shook his head.

Lin Qing saw his "fearful" look, but felt that he had guessed correctly, and gritted his teeth.

"I knew that the person named Li Jing was not a good person. She even abused children as young as you. She should be dragged out to hold a meeting to criticize her. Let's go and settle the score with her!"
