Chapter 488 Decoration Drawings
Seeing that Tan Chen supported it, the two became more determined in their idea.
Chen Xiangyang pursed his lips, seemingly having made a great decision: "I will go back and file for divorce with Su Qiaoli, and then apply for discharge from the army after it's settled."
Gao Ming smiled and said, "That's perfect. Your affairs are all settled, and my injury is almost healed. Then the two of us brothers can go out and conquer the world."
The brothers' conversation in the study was interrupted by a knock on the door. Jiang Ping was holding a letter in his hand.
"Tan Chen, there's a letter from Sihe Village."
Tan Chen stood up and walked to the door, and saw three letters in his mother's hand.
One of the letters was written to him by Li Jiasheng, and the other two were written to Shang Ruoting by Yang Tao and Shang Guye.
Jiang Ping handed Li Jiasheng's letter to Tan Chen and said, "Mom will deliver the other two letters to Ruoting."
"Thank you, Mom!"
Tan Chen took the letter and went back to the study again. He opened the letter without hiding it from Gao Ming and Chen Xiangyang.
As his smile grew wider, Gao Ming asked, "Boss, judging from your expression, does it mean that Li Jiasheng is already a father?"
Tan Chen put the letter he had read on the table and nodded: "Well, just a few days ago, Yang Mei gave birth to a big fat boy for him."
"That's great, boss. Li Jiasheng has become a father too. I'll buy some gifts and send them to him when I get back."
Chen Xiangyang was also happy for Li Jiasheng: "Since you want to give a gift, why don't we prepare it together."
Gao Ming said unhappily, "Have you forgotten the relationship between sister-in-law and Yang Mei?
There's no need for the boss to take care of this kind of thing."
Sure enough, after reading Yang Tao's letter, Shang Ruoting learned that Yang Mei had given birth to a big fat boy, and she had already started thinking about what gift to give.
In addition, Yang Tao's letter also mentioned that the oyster mushrooms planted by the two families had matured again a few days ago, and the mushrooms at home were only enough for this planting.
Shang Ruoting had already made plans for this. She would take time out in the next two days to enter the space for cultivation. After the cultivation was done, she could hire a car to deliver it. Although it would cost more, it was better than delaying the planting.
In his mind, Mr. Shang was reporting on the greenhouse planting and rice production at home. Everything was going smoothly. At the same time, the ripe fruits and vegetables were also purchased by Nanjie Non-staple Food.
He deposited all the money he collected into the passbook left by Shang Ruoting. Including the money from selling oyster mushrooms, he had saved almost four thousand yuan.
Now that she has come to Beijing, Shang Ruoting hopes to have as much money as possible, after all, there are so many things to invest in here.
After dinner, after seeing Gao Ming and Chen Xiangyang off, the couple was pulled aside by Tan Shaowen to ask about the matters concerning the courtyard house.
Now that they had received the approval note written by Zhao Dongsheng himself, Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen didn't have to go back to school to live in the dormitory tonight. They simply discussed the details with Tan Shaowen.
Tan Chen took out the drawn drawings and spread them out on the table.
"We plan to renovate the courtyard house in this style."
Tan Shaowen looked through the drawings carefully. In fact, there was nothing that could be changed in the structure of the house. He only needed to repair some of the dilapidated areas. The drawings by Tan Chen mainly designed some interior decorations and the renovation of the yard.
The kitchens that were originally unique to each house were all demolished, leaving two back rooms as kitchens and dining rooms, and another back room as a storage room.
The main room in the middle is used as a living room, with master bedrooms on both sides. The four side rooms on the east and west sides, except for one used as a children's room, have all been converted into bedrooms.
Tan Chen also listened to Shang Ruoting's advice and installed water supply and drainage in each room, as well as a separate bathroom.
Burning firewood here is not as convenient as in Sihe Village. Tan Chen made floor heating based on the principles in a book he saw in his wife's space, and connected all the pipes. When the time comes, he only needs to build a stove in the kitchen that is the same as the earth heating stove to warm up all the rooms.
In this way, you won’t feel cold in the room even if there is no kang in the winter.
Although the cost of such decoration is a bit higher, the money saved on energy can be spread out after living in it for a few years.
To put it bluntly, it is a one-time solution.
In addition, Tan Chen also designed several pieces of furniture, partly out of inspiration and partly based on valuable suggestions from Shang Ruoting based on the practical and beautiful furniture she had seen in her previous life.
Tan Chen is a very good painter and has a good grasp of proportions. Although the drawings he draws are not as three-dimensional as Hou A, people can still see it clearly and even imagine what the house will look like after it is renovated.
In addition to drawing the styles of these furniture clearly, Tan Chen also drew the furniture patterns in the picture according to the positions he wanted to place them.
Tan Shaowen couldn't understand the distribution of the pipelines, but he could see the interior decoration at a glance.
