Chapter 11 New
Home Old Li worked very quickly. Once the design was finalized, within two days, a lot of things were piled up in and outside the yard.
It's not just because of Tao Huayu's instructions, but also because he and his subordinates will treat any project wholeheartedly no matter how small it is, and thus have accumulated a very good reputation over the years.
The big project will start in the middle of next month, so Lao Li brought more people with him to try to finish Liu Wangxue's work as soon as possible.
The interior renovation, kitchen construction, yard expansion, sunroom and grape trellis construction started at the same time.
One side of the courtyard wall is shared with Xu Qingsong's side, and the stairs leading to the top of the bungalow are at the angle on this side.
The kitchen is also built here, leaving a one-meter aisle between the stairs so that small batteries can be placed under the stairs.
The courtyard wall on the other side was demolished, expanded two meters outward and rebuilt, and a sunroom and grape trellis were built in the newly expanded area.
It just so happens that the pomegranate tree is planted next to this side, so there is no need to transplant it, just leave some space.
Liu Wangxue and Gu Xuelan didn't understand these engineering matters, so only Liu Nanshan followed them throughout the process. He was very interested and followed along.
The mother and daughter went to the town to buy some drinks and cigarettes, and ordered lunch for the workers.
When I came back, I found a lot of drinks and fruits in the living room.
Liu Nanshan said with a smile: "They were all sent by Xiao Xu. This kid was disturbed by the construction work at our house, but he still came here to deliver things."
Gu Xuelan disagreed: "Then why did you accept it? How much is it? I will give it to them."
"Why go?" Liu Nanshan said, "They didn't say it was for us, they specifically gave it to Lao Li. Lao Li was not polite, what can I say?"
"This child!" Gu Xuelan had no choice but to give up.
Liu Wangxue took a photo of these things and sent it to Xu Qingsong: [Thank you]
Xu Qingsong: [For Lao Li, you can eat it if you want]
Willow Catkins: [Tie Q]
Xu Qingsong: [Catch it.gif]
Liu Wangxue smiled, then went to wash the fruit with Gu Xuelan and invited everyone to eat.
Lao Li's men acted very quickly, and in just a week, the transformation of various parts had taken shape.
Liu Nanshan was very satisfied. During dinner, he gave the mother and daughter a thumbs up and praised: "This is definitely the skill. If all the people under my command were like this, I wouldn't have to change my career."
Gu Xuelan ignored his sigh. She just had a special liking for Tao Huayu: "Xiao Tao looks a bit slick, but I didn't expect him to be so reliable when it comes to getting things done."
Liu Nanshan disagreed: "If you want to praise, you have to praise Xiao Xu first. If it weren't for Xiao Xu, would you be able to know Xiao Tao?"
These days, Xu Qingsong also came to help, and his behavior was very much in line with Liu Nanshan's temperament, and he successfully established a "revolutionary friendship" with him.
After that, it was Liu Wangxue's turn to disagree: "If you want to praise, you should praise me. If I didn't want to buy a house here, would you know them?"
The couple laughed out loud together: "Yes, my daughter is the best!"
Liu Wangxue was proud.
In the days that followed, the indoor and outdoor environments changed almost every day, and every place slowly became what Liu Wangxue wanted.
During this period, Liu Wangxue rode a small electric bike and took Gu Xuelan to the furniture store to choose furniture.
By chance, she ran into Tao Huayu, who enthusiastically offered to help. He said to Gu Xuelan, "Auntie, you don't know that some stores here specifically bully outsiders and sell inferior goods as good ones. I'm already well-known here. With me here, no one dares to fool you."
Seeing him posing like a little rooster ready to fight, both mother and daughter were very happy. Gu Xuelan said, "Then I'll trouble you, Xiao Tao."
"No trouble, no trouble."
I needed a lot of furniture, and I had to choose them according to a unified style. I spent most of the day shopping before I decided on half of it.
Gu Xuelan was so tired that she had to come back the next day, and Tao Huayu stayed with them for two days.
Liu Wangxue felt embarrassed for bothering him all the time, so she asked, "When are you free recently? I'll treat you to a meal. I have to thank you anyway."
"Why are you being polite?" Tao Huayu was very happy to be able to help the goddess. It must be a blessing from his previous life, but he still had to pretend. "It won't be too late to invite me after you have finished your house, haha."
"Okay," Liu Wangxue said cheerfully without hesitation, "We can have a barbecue on the roof, which can be considered a warm house. You must come and show your respect!"
"no problem!"
What honor do you mean? It’s the goddess who is honoring me, okay? Tao Huayu jumped with excitement after Liu Wangxue and her daughter left.
In more than 20 days, everything was completed and the furniture was installed. In order to facilitate moving in, the materials chosen were either antique solid wood or environmentally friendly materials.
The workers helped clean up the garbage and cleaned the house inside and out before leaving.
For the first time in his life, Liu Wangxue bought a house and participated in its design and renovation. He felt a great sense of accomplishment.
After seeing the workers off, I went with my parents to carefully inspect the building inside and out. No, we admired it.
As she had imagined, the kitchen door was sealed, the walls were repainted, and the white-ink painting of orchids in the valley was hung here.
Half of the wall shared with the bedroom was knocked down to make a half-moon door with a plain curtain hung on it. One side is the sleeping space and the other side is the working space.
The wardrobe is made of an iron frame, which is directly built on the wall. It can be adjusted and combined according to needs, and frosted glass doors are installed on the outside. In this way, the room will not look dark and crowded.
The kitchen in the yard is also in the style of a bungalow, with an open interior. A bar separates the cooking area and the dining room. The bar can also be used as a sink and is equipped with several high stools.
The expanded yard does not have a cement floor, but is paved with tiles, which is also convenient for plant growth.
A sunroom was built next to the bungalow, which utilized the walls of the bungalow and the yard, saving the need for two sheets of glass.
When Liu Wangxue went shopping for furniture, he saw a swing chair and bought it, and now he has placed it here.
She touched here and looked there, and was particularly curious about the miniature garden in the center of the tea table. She took a cup of water and poured it into the lotus pond. Soon, a small waterfall began to flow.
The grape trellis was built with the other corner as support, so only one pole was erected, and a layer of plastic hay was fixed on the top to provide shade when the grape vines were not yet grown.
Under the shelf there is a small square table and two rocking chairs. The rocking chairs are made of rattan, which is very suitable for the occasion.
The grape seedlings, waterfall roses and creepers have been planted and we are just waiting for them to grow.
Xu Qingsong helped find the grape seedlings. The old farmer said that now was not the most suitable time for transplanting, but it didn't matter, as long as they were carefully cared for. The tender seedlings, more than one meter tall, were pulled by cloth strips and tightly attached to the pillars. There was also a small sign hanging on Miaomiao, with precautions written on it.
Liu Wangxue smiled and pushed away the green leaves, her heart filled with love for her current life.
