Good evening, brothers. You guys should have finished dinner by now, right? I just uncovered the pot and served my dad a bowl of congee first, then I served myself. There was only one last bite left in the stinky white pickled vegetables, and after that, I could only eat shredded cucumber. The cucumber is from our own family's seeds. This morning, my dad and I finished the last corner by the south wall on the east side. We used two basins of cement. Then I went to do some mutual follows. By three o'clock in the afternoon, I finished the mutual follows on time and helped my dad wash two pieces of clothing, which got dirty because he was mixing cement. Since the water pipe stopped working, I took out the water tank I bought six years ago and filled it with a tank of water, bringing it back with an electric tricycle. My dad even scolded me a bit, saying our family doesn't use much water and we can just use a bucket. I said that the bucket is so small, I would have to make several trips, and if I couldn't use it, I would leave this home. Then, after my dad finished washing the tomatoes, I saw that there was still half a tank of water left, proving that my choice was correct. The tomatoes were something my dad heard from others that some vegetable greenhouses had unwanted tomatoes during this time. He took a ride in someone else's car and brought back a bucket of tomatoes. Most of the tomatoes were washed clean by him and put into the freezer. Now, tomatoes in the market are not cheap, costing over 2 yuan per pound.

At this moment, it is very windy outside. I hear the wooden boards holding down the tarpaulin on the roof being blown down by the strong wind. A few days ago, I wanted to buy rope, but my dad wouldn't let me. Now that the strong wind has come, even the wooden boards can't hold up, and some of the tiles on the roof have been blown off. This proves that I was right; my family needs rope. I will go place an order to buy rope soon, getting 100 pieces of 20-meter rope. The tarpaulin must be tied down with rope to be secure.

That's all I have to say. It's getting into autumn recently, so remember to cover yourself with a quilt when you sleep at night, or you might catch a cold.
