As someone who owns a whole set of python skin, she is so willful! Qin Bin was too tired to complain about her inhumanity and could only do his best to help his master.
"When making armor from python skin, there will definitely be a lot of leftovers. Master Wang, you can deal with those leftovers as you wish."
Hearing this, Wang Qiantang couldn't help but feel happy. As a master in refining equipment, he was best at making rational use of resources. This python skin would definitely have a lot left over after making four sets of armor.
He couldn't refuse this benefit, but he wasn't someone who liked to take advantage of others.
"Then the remaining python skin will be counted as my labor fee."
"That's fine."
When the two sets of armor were ready, Shen Yizi immediately put them on himself and Qing Bao.
The armor is light and soft, not much different from clothes, so you can put it on directly.
Shen Yizi made some large movements, and the armor did not hinder her at all.
In her mind, Wang Qiantang's weapon-refining ability was even higher.
"Doctor Shen, your new house is built!" That day, Li Jingeng ran to tell Shen Yizhi.
"So fast!" she exclaimed.
"Doctor Shen, the wages you pay are sufficient and the food you provide is good, so those people must work hard. Otherwise, how can they receive such high wages from you!" said Li Jingeng.
Of course, this is also due to his constant supervision.
The progress had been slowed down before because of him, but after that no one came to make trouble, he asked the workers to work overtime in order to finish the house as soon as possible so that Dr. Shen could move in as soon as possible.
Seeing him sweating profusely, Shen Yizhi didn't rush back, but asked: "Have you eaten? I'm going back to cook, come with me and have something to eat at my place."
Li Jingeng subconsciously wanted to refuse, "No need, Doctor Shen, I——"
"What do you mean you don't need it? I can't ask you to give me a meal. Just listen to me and let's go."
Shen Yizhi held Qingbao in his arms and led the way.
Li Jingeng hurried over to lend a hand, "Qingbao, let me hold you."
"No, it's just a few steps away and we'll be there soon."
Shen Yizi was not being polite, but the place where she lived was really not far from the clinic, just across the street.
After entering the yard, Shen Yizhi put Qingbao down, poured a cup of tea for Li Jingeng, asked him to sit down, and went into the kitchen to busy himself.
During the meal, Li Jingeng praised Shen Yizi's cooking skills. He didn't want to look starving in front of her, but the food she cooked was so delicious that he couldn't help but wolf it down.
During this time, Hui Niang came over and brought some fried rice crackers that she had made.
This is a delicacy made by rolling glutinous rice flour into round grains and stir-frying them with rice crackers, shepherd's purse, and finely chopped ham.
It can be used as a snack or as a dish.
Shen Yizhi gave her some fried silver fish he made in return and chatted with her for a while.
When Hui Niang saw Li Jingeng, she winked at her ambiguously: "Is that your man? Why don't you see him often?"
Shen Yizhi patted her lightly and said, "No, that's a young man from our village. I asked him to help build a new house before. Now that the house is built, he came to tell me."
"Is that so?" Hui Niang's eyes swept over Li Jingeng, focusing on his back and arms.
"Then when you host a house-warming party, I will definitely go and show my support."
"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes."
After the meal, Shen Yizhi said to Li Jingeng: "Jingeng, you go back first. I still have some things to deal with here. I will go back early tomorrow morning."
"Yeah, okay."
Li Jingeng rushed to wash the dishes, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and left the yard.
Shen Yizhi went to Huichuntang again in the afternoon and said goodbye to Manager Su when he left.
Several people in the clinic were reluctant to leave. Firstly, it was because of Qingbao, this adorable and blessed little guy. Secondly, during the time that Shen Yizi was in charge of the clinic, he not only helped them solve many difficult and complicated diseases, but also brought them delicious food from time to time.
Now that she is leaving, they probably won't be able to eat the delicious food she cooks anymore.
"Don't think I don't know what you really don't want to part with. Come, share these dried meats and preserved fruits. And these jars of wine."
Seeing the pile of things she took out, Su Guangbai, Su Zhe and Nan Xing looked at each other, and then pounced on them at the same time.
Shen Yizhi found it funny.
The next morning, she rode her donkey back to Lijiazhuang, holding Qingbao in her arms. Behind them followed a horse-drawn carriage loaded with a lot of things like rice, flour, meat, and vegetables that she had bought to prepare for the house-warming wine.
The new house was completed in about a month. Shen Yizi was still worried that the house would be different from her original design, but after seeing it in person, she completely eliminated these worries.
The house is surrounded by a tall wall that is as tall as a person. The wall is painted white and a circle of seasonal flower trees, such as peaches, pears, and apricots, are planted around the base of the wall.
At first glance, the red flowers, white walls and green tiles create a poetic and picturesque scene.
Walking into the red-painted copper-ringed gate, there is a spacious and open courtyard.
The bluestone road divides the yard into two parts. On the east side is a large and spacious kitchen and a thatched pavilion with a well in it.
To the west, there is a transplanted pomegranate tree as thick as a bowl. It has lush branches and leaves, casting a dense shade, and clusters of flower buds show their half-opened charm.
There is a set of stone tables and benches under the tree for people to rest. You can also eat on them in summer. It must be very comfortable with the cool breeze blowing.
To the north, there are three large houses. The middle one has the best light and is the main room for receiving guests. To the east is the dining room, and to the west are the guest rooms.
Passing through the main hall, there is a square courtyard, which is still quite large. To the east are three side rooms, to the west is a corridor, and to the north is a three-story building.
This small building is the residence that Shen Yizi arranged for himself and Qing Bao.
The first floor of the small building is the living room, study and Qingbao's playroom.
The second floor is her studio and bedroom.
The third floor is only half the size of the first and second floors, and is a place for cultivating immortality and gazing out into the distance.
Standing in front of the railing, you can have a panoramic view of the entire Lijiazhuang.
There was no furniture in the room yet, so it looked empty.
However, Shen Yizhi still couldn't suppress his excitement. He took Qing Bao for a spin from front to back and up to down, feeling extremely satisfied.
Many villagers came to visit and were amazed.
“What a magnificent house this is!”
"Doctor Shen is really rich. He can actually build such a big house..."
"This room is so clean that I feel embarrassed to step inside."
The villagers walked around inside and outside, touching the clean walls and red-painted columns from time to time, their eyes full of envy.
"Doctor Shen, when are you going to hold the house-warming party? Then we will all come to celebrate for you."
A villager asked with a smile.
"Tomorrow! Everyone must come to support me then." Shen Yi knew.
"Of course!"
