In the oven, the eggplant skin on the iron plate became wrinkled. Gu Xiaoyou pressed it with a long chopstick, and the eggplant became soft.

"It's baked." Gu Xiaoyou's eyes lit up and she quickly took the iron plate out of the oven.

The roasted eggplants still need to be processed. Gu Xiaoyou peeled the eggplants on the iron plate one by one. The insides of the eggplants were fully cooked. Use chopsticks to scrape them into a fluffy shape. Pour the sauce evenly on the eggplants.

Putting the eggplant back into the oven, Gu Xiaoyou closed the oven door and said to Mrs. Zhou, "It will take another cup of tea to eat."

Mrs. Zhou nodded when she heard this, looking forward to the taste of eggplant cooked in the oven.

After a cup of tea, Gu Xiaoyou opened the sliding door of the oven, and a tangy aroma suddenly came out, and the backyard was filled with the aroma of roasted eggplant.

"It smells so good." Mrs. Zhou praised. She was not a big fan of food and she immediately became greedy when she smelled the smell.

"Hey, let's try the eggplant cooked in the oven." Gu Xiaoyou brought the iron plate to the table and handed the chopsticks to Mrs. Zhou.

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou picked up a mouthful of eggplant, blew on the hot air, and couldn't wait to put it into her mouth.

The oven-roasted eggplant is tender and juicy, with crushed millet, chili pepper and minced garlic on it. The juice will come out when you bite it. The juice is sweet and spicy with the unique taste of eggplant.

The eggplant meat is so tender that it melts in your mouth without much effort in chewing.

After Zhou finished one bite, she picked up her chopsticks and took several more bites. She didn't put down her chopsticks until she finished eating the whole eggplant.

Gu Xiaoyou took a bite of the eggplant, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How was it?"

"It's delicious. I didn't expect eggplant cooked in the oven to be so fragrant." Zhou took a sip of tea and then moved her chopsticks to another eggplant, proving the deliciousness of the eggplant with her actions.

"If it's delicious, eat more." Gu Xiaoyou smiled and moved the iron plate towards Zhou.

"You eat too." Zhou regained some of her restraint and said sheepishly.

"Yeah." Gu Xiaoyou responded, picked up the eggplant and ate it.

The two sisters ate up all the eggplants on the iron plate. Gu Xiaoyou took a sip of water and said, "The oven is very successful. Let's build a few more."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou responded with full energy and full stomach.

Gu Xiaoyou rolled up her sleeves and got busy in the backyard with Mrs. Zhou. Just like Mrs. Zhou said, with the first experience, setting up the oven will be much faster.

The two people worked hard to use all the materials they bought at the material market, and set up six ovens in the yard.

The sun has already set, and everything is hazy.

Gu Xiaoyou used the light of his mobile phone to look around the yard: "Six are enough, just use these."

"Okay." Mrs. Zhou patted the dust on her hands and picked up the broom in the corner: "I'll clean up the backyard."

Gu Xiaoyou looked at the time on his phone: "I'll clean up tomorrow. The shops are closed. Let's go home."

"Yeah, okay." Ms. Zhou nodded, put the broom away, locked the door with Gu Xiaoyou and left the shop.

The two of them had been busy all day, moving bricks and building stoves. They were so focused on their work that they didn't feel tired. When they walked out of the shop, their fatigue suddenly came out.

Gu Xiaoyou rubbed his waist and said with a grimace: "Oh, we should take it step by step. Building six ovens at one time will be tiring even for an iron man."

Mrs. Zhou squeezed her arm, but her expression didn't change much: "I'm okay. I used to plow and farm in the countryside, which was much more tiring than setting up a stove."

"Is it true?" Gu Xiaoyou held her waist and looked at Mrs. Zhou a few times. Seeing that her expression was very relaxed, she pinched her arm a few times and her expression returned to normal.

Moreover, except for the wrinkles on the sleeves, Zhou's dress was neat in other places. On the other hand, her shoes were stained with mud, her skirt was stained with dirt, and one of her sleeves was still rolled up. She looked like a child from childhood.

A wild girl rolling in the dirt.

Comparing the two, Gu Xiaoyou felt both admiration and envy in her heart. His physical strength was so good that she couldn't help but give Zhou a thumbs up and herself: "You are awesome."

"It's okay." Zhou Shi smiled lightly.

While the two people were talking, they came to the street corner, and the carriage was already waiting in front.

When Gu Xiaoyou saw Zhixia waiting under the car, he stretched out his hand: "Come and help me."

Zhixia hurriedly stepped forward to help Gu Xiaoyou. Seeing her embarrassment, she asked with concern: "Miss, did you fall? Are you injured?"

"I'm fine, I'm just working." Gu Xiaoyou leaned half against Zhi Xia, got on the carriage and told her about setting up the oven in the afternoon.

While Zhixia was adjusting Gu Xiaoyou's clothes, she said, "Why don't you call me a slave? From now on, you can just let your slaves do such rough work."

After saying that, he patted the dirt on Gu Xiaoyou's skirt and wiped his hands with a handkerchief: "I'll give you a squeeze on your shoulders, slave."

"Thank you." Gu Xiaoyou did not refuse Zhixia's kindness and allowed her to squeeze his shoulders.

Zhixia diligently massaged Gu Xiaoyou's shoulders all the way back to the mansion.

Gu Xiaoyou was so comfortable that she almost fell asleep, but she was woken up by Mrs. Zhou, and she and Zhixia carried her back to the room in a daze.

"Sister Zhou, you have been tired for the whole day. Go back and take a good bath. Then go to the shop after you have had enough sleep tomorrow." Gu Xiaoyou warned.

"Don't worry about me, just have a good rest." Zhou said with a smile, sent Gu Xiaoyou back to the room, and left.

Gu Xiaoyou sat at the table and breathed a sigh of relief. Zhixia poured her a glass of water: "I will prepare hot water for you to take a bath."

"Okay." Gu Xiaoyou replied while lying on the table.

Afraid that Gu Xiao would have to wait for a long time, Zhixia and her servants quickly prepared hot water.

Zhixia helped her to the back of the screen and said, "I will help you take a bath."

"No, I can do it myself." Gu Xiaoyou waved her hand and refused. No matter how tired she was, she still had to take a bath by herself. She couldn't help but she was still not used to being taken care of.

Seeing Gu Xiaoyou's insistence, Zhixia had no choice but to wait outside the screen: "That slave is waiting outside. If you need anything, just call me slave."

"I know." Gu Xiaoyou responded and put all the clothes she had taken off on the screen.

"Slave, please put away your clothes." Zhixia said.

"Okay, put your purse next to the pillow." Gu Xiaoyou warned.

"Yes, I understand." Zhixia responded and worked quickly with her hands and feet.

While Zhixia was cleaning up, Gu Xiaoyou took a comfortable bath, put on clean underwear, and walked straight to the bed.

Gu Xiaoyou lay down on the bed carelessly and breathed a sigh of relief: "The bed is still comfortable."

"Slave, please press it for you." Zhixia said considerately.

"Excuse me." Gu Xiaoyou turned over and lay on the bed: "Rub your waist for me, thank you."
