Chapter 333 Furniture

The beam-raising banquet lasted until the beginning of the third hour, and the guests left one after another.

Meng Huaining had achieved all the goals of this trip, and the Mo family was busy cleaning up the mess. He had no reason to stay any longer, so he told the officials and the matchmaker to say goodbye and leave.

The Mo family worked until dark, then went back to rest exhausted.

Early the next day, He Zhiran called Mo Jiuye to take him to the foot of the mountain.

Now that I want to give my sister-in-law a similar courtyard house, the original plan needs to be changed.

Fortunately, He Zhiran planned to keep the open space on the west side of the courtyard complex for building a workshop in the future. The place was big enough and there was no shortage of space for a courtyard.

After the location was decided, the couple invited Hu Cong that day and told him that they wanted to build another courtyard house of the same type there, and they hoped that the construction could be done faster, preferably at the same time as the Mo family courtyards.

Hu Cong has already mastered the skills of building a courtyard house, and there are surplus materials of all kinds, so it is not a big problem to meet the deadline.

Therefore, he agreed immediately.

Since there are enough people building the Siheyuan and sufficient materials are prepared in the early stages, there is no reason for the construction to be delayed. It is estimated that it will be completed in another month.

In ancient times, there were no harmful substances such as formaldehyde. After a house was built, some furniture was made and people could move in.

Speaking of furniture, He Zhiran felt that it was time to start preparing.

In the past, furniture was basically custom-made. The so-called custom-made furniture means that the furniture was made according to the size of the location where it would be placed.

The style can be the same, but the space occupied must be reasonable. This is the essence of custom-made furniture.

Besides, He Zhiran also felt that the styles of these ancient furniture were not practical and not very beautiful.

Therefore, she also plans to design the furniture herself.

If she calls it a design, she can only be a shameless plagiarist, because she doesn't have that kind of design talent.

In any case, since this item is unique to this era and was created by her, I can only shamelessly call it design.

After arranging everything here, He Zhiran returned to the space and drew all the furniture styles he could think of and thought were reasonable.

Nanrui has not moved out of the haunted house yet, and the cattle shed that Mo Jiuye plans to build cannot be started for the time being. Therefore, there are relatively fewer things to do in the next two days, and he has just enough time to spend with his wife.

He Zhiran sat at the desk in the space, concentrating on drawing furniture blueprints, while Mo Jiuye prepared various cut fruits for her and fed her one bite at a time.

Looking at his wife's cherry-red lips opening and closing, Mo Jiuye couldn't help swallowing.

It has been more than two months since his wife found out she was pregnant, and he has been a monk for two months, living a celibate life.

He even had the urge to hug his wife tenderly as he had done in the past.

But when he saw his wife's bulging belly, he still endured it...

He Zhiran didn't know Mo Jiuye's desire, and she unknowingly drew a lot of modern furniture.

In fact, she had also considered some market conditions in ancient times, which was a perfect combination.

For example, the appearance and color of wardrobes cannot be as novel as modern ones. They are all made of solid wood, but the structure tends to be more modern.

The sliding door is designed to be almost the same height as the room, and has several drawers inside for small items.

As for the bed in the bedroom, He Zhiran didn't like the ancient step-out bed, as it was not very convenient for people sleeping in it to get up and down at night.

Therefore, she designed a modern box-style wooden bed with storage space under the bed and antique carvings at the head of the bed.

There are also tables and chairs, which also have a modern and simple design, and the overall look is both beautiful and generous.

Of course, there are also several types of lazy sofas, which are not available in this era and require a skilled craftsman to design them.

Mo Jiuye took a cold shower and when he came back he saw his wife carefully checking the results of her work one by one.

Mo Jiuye did not feel unfamiliar with the styles of these furniture. After all, he often browsed his wife's Taobao mall, and he was already accustomed to the strange decorations in the medical room.

He was originally worried that the furniture designed by his wife according to those styles would be too unconventional. He wanted to remind her but was worried that it would ruin her mood.

Now, the styles of these furniture completely match his aesthetic taste, and they look pleasing to the eye no matter how he looks at them.

"Wife, this bed is nice. It's very similar to the one in your space, and the style of the headboard doesn't look out of place."

Being evaluated in this way, He Zhiran's efforts in improvement were not in vain.

"If you think it's appropriate, there's no problem."

In short, these furniture will be used in her and Mo Jiuye’s new home.

As for whether other people like this style, it depends on their own aesthetic taste.

If you feel it is not suitable, you can create furniture in the style of this era.

The two of them looked at the drawings again, and after they felt there was no problem, they left the space together.

When it comes to making novel furniture, the first person they think of is still Hu Cong.

Because He Zhiran saw with her own eyes the wooden seeder he developed, she carefully examined its workmanship, which could be said to be very fine.

Although Hu Cong has been busy helping the Mo family build a house and taking over Nanrui's business recently, he has never been able to resist new things.

For example, the furniture drawings that He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye gave him today refreshed his cognition again.

And he knows how to appreciate the beauty and practicality of these designs.

At this time, Hu Cong had silently made a decision. After finishing the work at the Mo family, he planned to buy a piece of land in the village and build a courtyard like Nanrui did.

If He Zhiran allows, he also plans to use the furniture designed by him.

Seeing that Hu Cong took on the job of making furniture, He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye took advantage of the family gathering for dinner to show them the design drawings of the new furniture and asked them if they needed this novel furniture.

The sisters-in-law have always praised everything He Zhiran has done, and they would not have any objections even if they did not see the drawings. What's more, they also sincerely think that the design of the ninth sister-in-law is unique. It is not only beautiful in the room, but also looks very practical.

Although they had made up their minds, they would not express their opinions until their mother-in-law spoke.

Therefore, everyone's eyes fell on Madam Mo.

Madam Mo has lived for most of her life and is used to following those rules.

Even after being exiled to the northwest, she still had those deep-rooted old rules in her heart, especially in the furnishings of the room, which were very particular in wealthy families.

The wardrobes in the room all have top-opening lids and are engraved with lotus patterns. It is said that such boxes can bring wealth.

And the step-out bed she had slept on for most of her life could be considered a fig leaf between men and women.
