Chapter 189: Enter the Jia Mansion, Lin Meimei
The azure sky stretched endlessly overhead while the warm autumn sun bathed the earth below. In the distance, majestic mountains stood motionless, and birds soared through the sky.
Tranquility and serenity pervaded every corner as if the world was at peace.
"Baah~!"
A pitiful bleat suddenly shattered the illusion of tranquility, disrupting the peaceful scene.
With his snorting nose and swaying tail, Deer Lord casually strolled away, paying no heed to the three fellows who were no better than barking dogs.
The three little lambs gradually calmed down as the big fellow moved off. They cautiously emerged from their huddled corner, eyeing the much larger creatures with fear and awe. After a while, they tentatively approached the green grass placed not far away on the wooden planks.
"Baah~!"
But then, several more pitiful bleats rang out, causing the three timid lambs to huddle together again, trembling in fear.
The poor little fawn, often bullied by its father and other unruly creatures when young, had grown significantly.
While its size had increased, its maturity had not, and it had become mischievous.
Of course, one could also say that it had inherited the traits of its elders.
Seeing its father intimidating the three white-coated fellows, the fawn joined in, hopping and skipping to show off. It went even further than its father, scaring the timid trio and boldly eating the grass right in front of them.
Watching them cower in fear, the fawn became even more excited.
Perhaps this behavior stemmed from the psychological trauma it endured in its youth, always being bullied and pushed around for milk.
Just as people have to bow under a roof, so too did the sheep in the deer pen. The three little lambs dared not take a step or utter a word outside their designated area.
Unaware that these three little lambs had been bullied into the "Lin Meimei" role in the Jia Mansion, Han Cheng was busy with his affairs.
Of course, it wasn't lurking near the henhouse to peek at pants-less hens.
Now, living in this room with some shelter, the grade has improved. I don't know how much.
Inside the room, apart from the front and back heated beds, there is only a middle passage over a meter wide for walking, nothing else.
People in the tribe don't think there's anything wrong with this because when they lived in caves, they didn't have anything besides a place to sleep.
They are already very satisfied with what they have now, carefully touching their allotted heated beds one by one with joy and disbelief.
Many people who have participated in erecting earth-heated beds, with a heart full of pride, speak with their spouses or children in broken language about when they were building these earth-heated beds.
Some children happily play on the laid heated beds, flipping head over heels.
Many boys who haven't mastered the strength will flip to the bottom of the heated bed suddenly. They are a bit naughty but don't cry or fuss. They quickly get up from the ground, climb back onto the heated bed, and continue playing.
Girls who fall and hurt themselves may shed a few tears and cry for a while, but this crying will soon disappear. With tears on their faces, they smile and play again, having already thrown the pain out of the window.
Not every room has a door, which would be too much trouble and waste space inside the room because the place where the door is opened cannot be used to build a heated bed.
A total of two south-facing doors were opened for the twelve rooms, one at each end of the fourth room.
With this door as the boundary, the twelve rooms can be divided into three sections, with the number of rooms from east to west being three, four, and three.
The doors are left like this as part of Han Cheng's considerations.
These twelve connected rooms are not individual small rooms; their interiors are connected, with the ten inner doors left by the eleven mountain walls allowing passage.
People living in the three rooms at the eastern and western ends can enter and exit from the adjacent doors, while those living in the four rooms in the middle can decide which door to use depending on the situation.
Leaving these doorways like this maximizes the convenience for everyone to enter and exit.
The eleven doorways inside the rooms do not have doors, as there is no need for them, and installing them would be cumbersome.
When the skin and fur of the Green Sparrow tribe increase or when they can make cloth after finding hemp, they can hang a curtain half a meter above the ground to cover it.
