Chapter 262 New Home Arrangement
Early the next morning, the ox cart that the two had rented in advance arrived. They originally wanted to rent a tricycle, but they thought that manpower might not be able to pull so many things, so they could only rent an ox cart.
Fortunately, this place is very close to the courtyard.
However, they were unable to move all the things away this time. They only took away some commonly used items and some seldom used items. They would wait for Zhao Yanshu to come back and move them slowly.
When we arrived at the courtyard, because their front door was right outside on the street, we didn't have to go into the alley. It was also very convenient to move things by parking the ox cart at the door.
If this was an alley inside, even a bullock cart probably wouldn't be able to get in, and it would have to be moved in bit by bit.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuzhu became even more satisfied with her new home.
Because they got up early, it was only a little after nine in the morning when the family moved their things in.
Lin Yuzhu arranged for Shuyao to look after her younger brother, and she and Zhao Yanshu started to clean up.
Fortunately, Zhao Yanshu had almost finished cleaning the house, so they finished quickly.
Lin Yuzhu was very happy when she looked at the newly decorated new home.
However, although the house is large and has many rooms, there are few of them and not all of these rooms are used.
There are four main rooms, the middle one is the living room, which is also the dining room, and there are two rooms on each side.
Lin Yuzhu and her family lived in the room with a basement on the east side. It was not because of the basement, but because Zhao Yanshu connected the two rooms here to form a particularly large master bedroom.
In fact, it’s not really connected, it’s just that half of the partition between the two rooms was opened up, so that people can pass through each other without going out.
One of the rooms was converted into a study. There was a large bookshelf against the wall with a lot of books on it. There were two desks in the middle. This would be where the two of them would read and write in the future.
The room inside is the master bedroom, which contains a bed and two wardrobes.
Some of these furniture were moved from the old house, and some were bought by Zhao Yanshu at the trust store.
On the west side of the living room are the two children's rooms, but the son is still young and cannot live alone at the moment, so only Shuyao's room has been decorated.
As for the rooms on both sides, the five rooms in the east wing were all empty. They were simply cleaned and used as guest rooms. However, there were no beds in them now, so they were left empty for the time being.
The side room next to the main house became a storage room, which contained many things that were not often used, and of course, the floor tiles that had been removed before.
However, the rooms in the west wing were used a lot.
The room near the main house was converted into a kitchen, while the adjacent side room was converted into a washroom and toilet.
She didn't look carefully when she viewed the house before, she only knew that this washroom was a bit like the bathroom in later generations.
Later, when I came to clean up, I learned from Zhao Yanshu that the design of this washroom and toilet is actually not simple at all.
Not only can you shower, you can also flush the toilet.
Lin Yuzhu was very surprised when she heard this. Can the courtyard house be rebuilt in this way now?
After listening to Zhao Yanshu, I found out that the previous owner installed something similar to a boiler in the kitchen. When cooking, he could heat the water in the boiler at the same time, and the hot water could be used for bathing.
But the prerequisite is that you have to put the water inside in advance, and there is no tap water, so you have to draw water from the well.
Although the process is a bit troublesome, it is also very good. It is just that it will definitely be cold to take a bath here in winter. But then they don’t have to take a bath every day. It is enough to go to the bathhouse outside occasionally. Usually, a simple wipe will be very comfortable, so Lin Yuzhu is also very satisfied.
As for the water after washing, it will also flow out of the sewer to the same place as the toilet in the bathroom.
