Chapter 24: Shao Hao, Let's Build Chicken Coops and Sheep Pens Together

Leisurely soaking in the swimming pool, Zhuang Yu swam a lap, with Little Mushroom following behind, splashing water happily.

A group of kids were amazed, "How can Brother Yu not sink like Little Mushroom?"

They knew they would sink and never dared to go to the deep water area.

Then, following Zhuang Yu's example, they vigorously paddled with their hands, but only sank with a splash, then popped their heads up and spit water out, getting water in their noses.

Zhuang Yu smiled and began teaching them to swim amidst the chattering of the kids.

He let them hold onto the edge of the pool and tried to float in the water, kicking their feet, and then taught them how to paddle with their hands.

Little Mushroom proudly demonstrated on the side, "Look, like this, like this..."

Zhuang Yu: "..."

Perhaps animals have an innate instinct to swim, naturally doing a dog paddle, and Little Mushroom was now the most standard dog paddler.

On the edge of the pool, a row of children lay down, while the pool was full of splashing water.

If this were in modern times, playing like this in a public pool would probably be condemned, but being together with a group of familiar people like this was the most atmospheric and joyful. Therefore, everything depended on the situation and place; one couldn't pass judgment too quickly.

Some of the more insightful kids could already swim a short distance by themselves, vigorously splashing with their hands and feet, with smiles almost breaking their faces.

These genuine smiles from the heart were the most real. Perhaps Zhuang Yu had seen too many fake smiles before, but seeing the sincere smiles on these children's faces made him feel much better inside.

Once again warning these kids not to go to the deep water area, he went to soak on his own. The kids' area was now filled with splashing water, splashing everywhere.

In front of Zhuang Yu's cave, it was bustling.

However, suddenly, a child shouted, "Ah, Brother Yu, the leaves of your Devil Fruit are wilting a bit."

Zhuang Yu was shocked and quickly ran over to take a look. Sure enough, the pepper leaves were drooping a bit. They hadn't watered them for only two days, and they were already like this. The weather was indeed terrifying. If they didn't water them for a few more days, they would wither and die.

This was also one of the reasons why no one in the Clan planted them. They simply didn't have enough water to irrigate the land, especially for plants with underdeveloped roots like these peppers. They couldn't absorb water deeply like large trees, and the surface had already been evaporated by the sun, leaving little moisture.

A group of kids shouted, "Let's water them, let's water them."

Looking at the sky, it was indeed time to water the land as usual.

The pepper field had already been harvested once, but peppers could be harvested several times before they were done, and now many peppers were ripe again.

Zhuang Yu thought for a moment and decided to harvest the peppers tomorrow. He happened to be making a bamboo winnowing basket to dry the peppers.

A group of children began to fetch water to irrigate the land, and they also watered the wildflowers they had planted on the mountain today, as well as the pear tree.
