The scenery is very nice.

Conversely, the only thing that can be called 'good' is the scenery.

Located in the border area and on the plateau, this small village in the afterlife has the tranquility and serenity that other people dream of, but because of its geographical location and topographical conditions, the development of all aspects is greatly restricted.

There is no spacious road for vehicles to enter and exit, which makes it impossible to import building materials such as steel bars, cement, and sand and gravel from the outside. The materials for building the house can only be collected by local materials, but there are not many big trees nearby... The houses in the village are basically old-fashioned adobe houses, and the only ones that are considered solid are probably only used as meeting rooms the stone house.

The altitude is a bit high, the average temperature is relatively low, and many vegetables cannot be grown. Among the various crops that can be used as staple food, only sweet potatoes and highland barley, which do not require large flat ground and do not require high soil quality, can be grown here. Crops such as wheat, sorghum, and rice can be grown here if the temperature is too low. No, either the terrain conditions cannot match and cannot be planted.

The same goes for animal husbandry. The most common pigs and cattle in the countryside cannot adapt to the climate here. There is no water nearby that is wide enough to keep ducks. Coupled with the fact that feed is not easy to obtain, the village has a total of more than a dozen sheep, two litters of laying hens, and five yaks and two donkeys used as transportation tools.

The most basic food and housing are only at this level. Others... There are no village schools, no medical stations, no canteens, and even no decent roads. In terms of education, medical care, commerce, transportation, etc., this city Small villages have great flaws.

No, to be more precise, there should be none at all.

"The conditions are really bad enough." Shi Xiaolei came to the conclusion with a look of emotion after only five minutes of strolling around, seeing a third of the village.

"Yes." Jia Ying nodded, with a helpless expression on her face: "Although it is difficult, living here, we can at least save our own lives and survive in this world."

"It will get better." Feeling the sadness in his wife's heart, Mr. Hyde gently stretched out his hand and embraced Jia Ying from behind.

"Um."

While talking, a group of people came to the small courtyard where Jia Ying lived.

Although it is still the same adobe house, the house is not too big, but because Jia Ying has put a lot of thought into it, and has planted a lot of cold and frost-resistant flowers and plants in the yard, compared with what he saw along the way, Among the other houses I visited, the appearance of this small courtyard is a little more refined.

There are only two broods of laying hens in the village, one of which is raised in this small courtyard.

When everyone came over, several hens were taking a leisurely walk in the yard. Because of these few more living creatures, the small courtyard also has more vigor and vitality.

"Please come in." Without taking out the key to unlock the lock, Jia Ying pushed open the wooden door and led everyone into the room.

"Excuse me."

Because the location is relatively good, after opening the door, the light can shine into the main room. Generally speaking, the lighting is still acceptable.

However, it is undeniable that due to the shortage of manpower and materials, this hut also has the disadvantage of being cramped and boring. It doesn't seem obvious now, but that's because Jia Ying spent some time on the layout, cleverly using the small ornaments she made by herself to distract the eyes, and well concealing the shortcoming of "lack of space".

"Sorry, I only have some rough tea here. The hospitality is not good..."

Whether it was the act of serving tea to everyone with a tea set, or the words he said, Shi Xiaolei unconsciously remembered the feeling when he went back to the village to be a guest at a fellow villager's house.

"No, no, no." Subconsciously answered, Shi Xiaolei unconsciously became polite: "Let's sit for a while and leave. Besides, I didn't bring anything when I came to the door for the first time. If I'm embarrassed, I should blame you." Just say it."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Before the words finished, Kang Na had already taken the tea poured by Jia Ying: "Hey, there is Xiao Hua."

"When I have nothing to do, I go to pick snow lotus flowers on the mountain." After explaining, Jia Ying said with a smile: "It's a little bit bitter, you can try it first, if you're not used to it, I'll add a piece of rock sugar for you."

"Um."

Holding the cup, he blew carefully, and then took a small sip. Smacking her lips, Kang Na raised her head and gave Jia Ying a sunny smile: "It's not bitter, it's quite delicious."

"As long as you like it, I'll decorate it for you later, and you can take it home and drink it slowly?"

"Yeah." Nodding vigorously, the little guy smiled obediently: "Thank you, auntie."

After being interrupted by Kang Na, the atmosphere that was a little too polite before suddenly became much more natural.

After sitting down and drinking tea for a while, a quarter of an hour passed, and everyone finally remembered the purpose of coming here this time, and turned the topic back to the business.

"I've already packed Cici's room." Standing up, Jia Ying walked to the side of the living room and pushed open a wooden door: "This way."

"Let me see!" The little girl Kang Na ran the fastest, and was the first to rush into the room~lightnovelpub.net~ Shi Xiaolei and Bayonetta looked at each other, got up and walked over.

"This room..." Standing at the door, looking inside the room, and then looking back at the living room, Shi Xiaolei held his chin and asked Jia Ying: "It seems to be a little bigger than the living room, it's my illusion Is it?"

"It is indeed bigger." Jia Ying nodded and explained with a smile: "The houses in the village are all built by ourselves, and we don't have to pay so much attention. This room will be bigger because when we were laying the foundation, we found that the house below There is a big rock that cannot be broken through, but can only be circled around it."

"…I see."

"This was originally my own bedroom." Jia Ying continued: "It is the most spacious of the few rooms in the house. I want Sissy to live more comfortably, so I vacated it specially."

It is said to be the most spacious, but in fact this room is only about 20 square meters.

Not to mention comparing it with the room at Shi Xiaolei's house, even if it is compared with the small wooden house that Shi Xiaolei built for Skye on the roof of the shop... Well, the small wooden house is only 16 or 7 square meters in size, and the building area is about A little smaller than this room. But if you count the custom-made two-story structure of upper bunk and lower table, the wooden terrace outside, and the roof of the small shop that is equivalent to the yard, the usable area of ​​the log cabin is not small, and the level of comfort is also high. Much higher than the room in front of you.

One thing to say, Shi Xiaolei really looked down on this room.

However, thinking that it was Jia Ying who made it for Skai on purpose, no matter how poor the conditions were, it was her wish as a mother...

'Let's think about how to make it better. ’ Sighing in his heart, Shi Xiaolei withdrew his distracting thoughts, turned his head to look at Jia Ying: "OK, now let's discuss how we should start tidying up this room."
