490 Pride and Bias 2 (1/2)

This teenager was indeed a genius. He was fast and efficient and could do the job without a single mistake.

The roof of the stone house had a thick layer of bundles laid on it. Then, under Gu Xijiu’s instruction, a layer of yellow mud was applied.

The teenager had multiple talents. Other than his wood talent, he was good at manipulating fire too. He directly dried the layer of yellow mud and then laid another thick layer of thatch.

The current thatched roof was now thicker and stronger and would be able to withstand the bad weather.

After they were done, the sky had completely turned dark with a moon and thousands of twinkling stars illuminating.

The house was finally built. The teenager was like Gu Xijiu, dirty with mud. But he was proud of himself, ”Little girl, what do you think about the roof I helped you with? It’s better than your previous one, right?”

After they worked together for a period, the teenager subconsciously no longer felt enmity towards Gu Xijiu.

Gu Xijiu patted his shoulder, ”Good job!”

”Of course, I’m a genius after all!” The teenager was feeling proud.

It seemed that he had not been praised for a long period of time. Though he was still acting cool, his narrowing eyes proved that he was indeed happy.

He strolled around the stone house and finally thought of a question, ”Where’re you going to sleep?” He did not see a bed.

Gu Xijiu shook her head, ”Not going to sleep tonight. Will figure it out tomorrow.”

As the boy who led the way just now had said that the Tianju Hall did not have extra facilities, she had to build her own house as well as the interior furniture.

The nearest market was quite far away and was only available in the morning. Hence, Gu Xijiu had to wait for tomorrow if she wanted to buy bedding and other materials.
