The moonlight was clear and bright.
Liang Qu looked around and saw a total of twenty strong men working for him.
Sawing planks, setting up roof beams, mixing clay.
In the dead of winter, all were sweating profusely, the smell of sweat was particularly intense.
For ordinary households, taking a bath in winter wasn't convenient, requiring firewood to heat water, and carelessness could easily lead to catching a cold, which would be a serious loss,
so everyone tried to bathe as little as possible, and Liang Qu didn't mind either.
He was considered wealthy now, hanging a fragrant sachet at his waist, no smells but spreading fragrance.
In earlier days, he was as smelly of fish as anyone else, big brother and second brother alike.
"Have you eaten?"
"Yes, we have. The rice is filling, and there's meat in the dishes, no household is as generous as yours."
"Yeah, there's no work in winter, everyone's eating up their reserves. Having food to eat and money to earn is a great thing."
