"Uncle Dagen, can I borrow your tracing pen? I'll start drawing now!"
Cheng Yue said a little embarrassedly.
She had never thought about this problem before, but it was only when Cheng Shun mentioned making furniture for the dowry at breakfast that she remembered it.
Drawing some furniture is a piece of cake for her. When she was learning to paint, she didn't know how many times she had drawn the furniture in her home.
"Hahahaha, okay, okay!"
Li Dagen thought Cheng Yue came prepared, but he didn't expect her to paint on the spot.
All the children in the Li family have been to school, but they do not have the talent and can only read and write. Li Dagen does not force his children to read and write well. Anyway, as long as they can recognize the words, they will not be deceived by others in the future.
After getting the tools, Cheng Yue started painting.
Li Dagen's three sons who were good at carpentry also watched from the side.
First, Cheng Yue drew a bed.
The bed she drew had a wind-shaped corner at the bottom, so that the bed would be more sturdy, a large double bed with a backrest.
In this era, there is cotton, which can produce the effect she wants.
Then there are the two bedside tables.
Dressing table, wardrobe, clothes rack.
Finally, I also drew a small sofa for two people and a small coffee table.
This is the configuration of the new house.
"Fatty, what is this?"
"A hanger for hanging clothes. This one over here is a wardrobe. You don't have to fold your clothes when you need them. You can just hang them like this and put them in the wardrobe. They won't wrinkle."
"Oh, this tall thing is a wardrobe for clothes! Then what's this thing next to the bed?"
"It's used as a cushion. You can sit on the bed and lean on it to think, chat, or read. It's more comfortable this way."
"Then what is this thing that looks like a chair?"
"It's similar to a chair, except it's covered with cotton or something soft, making it comfortable to sit or lie on. This is only for use in the bedroom, but it can also be used outside."
"This is a dressing table, and this side is a mirror. Tsk, tsk, I think those ladies from wealthy families would definitely like a dressing table like this. Standing further away, they can see their entire body clearly! Even if they are sitting, they can still see their upper body."
"That's right, Brother Dahe, that's what this is for. Look at these small drawers on the table, they're used to store face creams, lip balms, and some small gadgets. There's no need for a special makeup box."
"Fatty, is this what you need for your new house?"
"Well, Uncle Dagen. The dimensions are marked on it. Can you make it according to these dimensions? Oh, and do you know anyone who makes mirrors? Not bronze mirrors, but the kind that reflect very clearly."
After answering the Li family's questions, Cheng Yue raised his own questions.
As I recall, there were glass mirrors in this era, and there were also mirrors that were better than bronze mirrors, but farmers generally did not use them.
The reason why Pang Ya has the memory of the mirror is because the peddler came to sell it once before, but the price was too high and no one in Xinghua Village bought it. That was the only time, and there was no more after that.
It's a small mirror the size of a palm.
Cheng Yue guessed that this was the work of the time-traveling predecessor who had become the Empress. Her Majesty the Empress couldn't cook, but she could conquer wars and invent things. Cheng Yue admired her very much.
Anyway, she didn't know how to make glass or mirrors.
She only gets married once in her life, so she will buy it no matter how expensive it is.
