253 Draw Anything

“I think a cattle would be better too,” Xue Yan said.

“Pfft.” Xue Sifu suddenly laughed. His voice wasn’t loud, and Xue Dafu and the others couldn’t hear the meaning behind it, but Xue Yan could tell that he was being made fun of. As for what it was, Xue Yan felt a little embarrassed to even think about it.

Looking away, Xue Yan didn’t even dare to meet Xue Sifu’s teasing and playful eyes.

He even rubbed his nose to cover the embarrassment.

Jiang Yue’s attention had been diverted by Li Hehua, who thought she was right and praised her, so she didn’t notice Xue Sifu making fun of and teasing Xue Yan.

When she turned to look at Xue Yan, she saw him touching his nose. She asked him in a low voice out of habit, “What’s wrong?”

“I’m… I’m fine.” Xue Yan was a little nervous.

Xue Sifu’s eyes were glimmering at this point.

Xue Yan didn’t dare to look at his brother.

Jiang Yue saw that Xue Yan was avoiding Xue Sifu’s gaze, so she turned to look at Xue Sifu. However, Xue Sifu had already put away his teasing look, and was laughing at Xue Dafu and the others, telling them that they would buy a cattle instead of a buffalo.

Xue Dafu and the others had been convinced by Jiang Yue’s opinion, and Xue Yan had the same idea. After hearing Xue Sifu’s words, they naturally agreed to buy the cattle.

“Let’s buy a cattle then!” Xue Dafu said cheerfully.

Since they had agreed to buy cattles, Xue Erfu and Xue Sifu took Xue Wufu to town to buy cattles and piglets.

Xue Dafu, Li Hehua, and Liu Guixia went to plow the weeds and tiny trees on the barren land.

Yu Hongyan went to Chunmei’s house next door and asked her to teach her how to make baby shoes. She wanted to make a pair for the unborn child in her stomach.

Xue Yifu was making something under the shed again.

Since they were going to buy a cattle, Xue Yifu would have to help them make a wooden cart to cover the cattle. Xue Yifu didn’t know how to make it without a blueprint, so Xue Yan went back to his room, sat in front of his desk, and started to draw the structure of the wooden cart. When he was done, he would ask Xue Yifu to make it according to the drawing.

He also realized that as long as he drew it and his brother understood it, his brother would be able to make it. Although his brother was not good with words and was especially honest, he also had his own talent.

Jiang Yue had nothing to do, so she took a small stool and placed it beside the desk. She stood on the small stool and looked at Xue Yan.

She had also realized that as long as Xue Yifu could understand it, he would be able to do it. “When you have time, you can draw other blueprints too. Then organize the papers into a book. If Yifu wants to do something, he can just open it and take a look. There’s no need to ask anyone. Compared to planting crops, Yifu obviously likes to fiddle with these things more. When Yifu has done all the work that requires carpenters to do in the workshop, everyone will know that Yifu’s craftsmanship is not only solid but also reliable. In the future, Yifu should be able to make a living on these things. Then he won’t have to plant crops, but can rely on woodworking to make a living.”

“I had the same idea,” Xue Yan said slowly while drawing, “But I feel that there are too many things to draw, and I don’t know where to start.”

“Just draw whatever you want. Draw whatever you can think of. Draw as much as you can.”

“Okay.”

Jiang Yue watched Xue Yan draw a few more strokes on the paper before she took out a tomato from her space and handed it to him.

The tomatoes had ripened yesterday and could be plucked to eat. She didn’t find a chance to give it to him yesterday, and there was no one else right now.

However, even though she had only planted one tomato, there were many more on the plant, and each of them was quite big.

“A tomato.” Jiang Yue said.

Suddenly, a big red fruit appeared in front of their sight. Xue Yan was stunned for a moment before he put down his pen and took it. He wasn’t surprised to hear her say it was called tomato.
