After leaving Zhang Yang's house, Zhou Ziwen took the Chen sisters, Shen Zhaodi, and the drunk Zhou Chaoyang home.
The wine in Zhang Yang's house is high-proof liquor. Zhou Chaoyang is not a good drinker and he got drunk after just a few drinks.
As educated youth from outside, the villagers were hospitable, but they also liked watching plays.
People like Zhou Chaoyang are exactly the ones they want to force drink.
Of course, they have no ill intentions, they just have a bit of bad taste.
After sending Zhou Chaoyang back to his home, Zhou Ziwen returned to his own home.
"I'll go to Master's house to see if he's free."
After drinking a cup of hot tea freshly brewed by Chen Qiaoyi, Zhou Ziwen spoke to the two sisters.
"Brother Ziwen, take a rest before going. You haven't had a nap today!" Chen Qiaoyi said with concern.
"No need. It's already two o'clock. If we're any later, we won't be able to finish it." Zhou Ziwen shook his head and looked at Chen Shiying. "Sister, let's make some mutton soup later. We'll have mutton soup tonight."
Since Master Chen came to his house to help, he must treat him to a meal in the evening. Mutton soup needs to be stewed for a long time to be fragrant, so it needs to be prepared in advance.
"Okay." Chen Shiying nodded.
After leaving home, Zhou Ziwen went straight to Master Chen's house.
It's cold outside, so Master Chen is staying at home for the winter.
After hearing Zhou Ziwen's purpose, Master Chen didn't say much. He took his own set of stonemasonry tools and set off with Zhou Ziwen.
"Master, why do you bring the tools? I've almost finished it." Zhou Ziwen asked.
"Hmph, with your limited skills, what can you make?" Master Chen glanced at him.
This old man is a bit arrogant. He knows that Zhou Ziwen is quite good at writing, but he just doesn't praise him.
"Master, my skills have improved after not seeing you for a while." Zhou Ziwen said.
The fourth-level stonemasonry skills are almost the same as those of stonemasons who have been working for more than ten years.
"Whether there is any improvement or not, I will know after seeing it." Master Chen did not comment.
Based on his understanding of Zhou Ziwen, it should not be a lie, and Zhou Ziwen has no need to lie to him.
This kid's talent is really amazing. In a short period of time, he surpassed most people, even him.
On the way back home, Master Chen also saw the materials Zhou Ziwen placed in the yard.
"You kid, you are indeed gifted." Master Chen looked at the processed stones and nodded with satisfaction.
Although I don't want to praise him, I can't speak against my conscience.
"Hehe!" Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly.
"But don't be too complacent. Although your craftsmanship is pretty good, it still needs to be polished." Master Chen felt a little regretful when he said this. Zhou Ziwen is not a stonemason now. If he continues to be a stonemason, he will probably achieve more than him in the future.
"Yes." After hearing Master Chen's instructions, Zhou Ziwen nodded seriously.
Although he no longer wastes idle slots, he can practice on his own.
When there is free time on the idle panel in the future, you can also upgrade the stonemason skills to the maximum level.
In this way, we will not disappoint Master Chen's expectations.
"Here, take a look. The lines here could actually be a little finer. A flat chisel won't cut it here. You need a pointed chisel..."
Taking advantage of this opportunity today, Master Chen began to give Zhou Ziwen guidance on his shortcomings.
Zhou Ziwen had an idea and temporarily put the stonemason skill in the idle position, and then listened carefully to Master Chen's instructions.
With the help of the auto-switch panel, Zhou Ziwen understood things quickly. Often, if there was a mistake, he only needed to be pointed out once to understand it, without having to listen to it a second time.
Seeing that Zhou Ziwen had such a good understanding, Master Chen taught him enthusiastically.
After teaching for a while, Master Chen pointed out Zhou Ziwen's shortcomings, and felt a little sorry.
It would be a shame if such a good seedling did not become a stonemason.
"Master, have some tea."
Seeing Master Chen coming, Chen Qiaoyi hurriedly made tea for him and brought it to him attentively.
Zhou Ziwen called him Master, and Chen Qiaoyi, being Zhou Ziwen's wife, naturally followed suit.
"Okay." Master Chen happily took the teacup, blew away the tea leaves and took a sip.
He was still satisfied with Chen Qiaoyi, his apprentice's wife.
I even sighed in my heart that Zhou Ziwen married a good wife.
After drinking a sip of tea, Master Chen was not idle either. He took out his tools and started to modify the stone with Zhou Ziwen.
One of them was an old hand, and the other was young and strong. They both made revisions very quickly, and they had finished almost everything in a short while.
Of course, this is also because Zhou Ziwen did a good job of processing it, but from Master Chen's perspective, there are still some problems.
If your requirements are lower, you don’t even need to change it.
"Master, this is what I'm thinking... Do you think it's okay to build it this way?"
After processing the stone, Zhou Ziwen took Master Chen to the original location of the toilet.
The toilet had been demolished, leaving only a dry road leading to the cesspool outside the yard.
"Okay, let's build it according to your idea." After listening to Zhou Ziwen's story, Master Chen nodded.
Young people are smart, and Zhou Ziwen comes from later generations, so his ideas are more advanced. His plan is even better than Master Chen's.
Zhou Ziwen was also very happy to receive the recognition from Master Chen.
Next, the two of them worked together and quickly installed the heated bathtub.
"Try it first."
After the installation was completed, Master Chen spoke.
Although there is no problem in theory, you can try it out. If there are any problems, you can modify them in advance to avoid the trouble of modifying them after the wall is already fixed.
"OK."
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
His bathtub is heated by stone slabs.
The stone slabs at the bottom of the bathtub are very thin and can conduct heat well.
The heating stove is designed with two doors, one outside the bathroom and one inside the bathroom.
The fire is burned outside, but you can also add firewood inside when taking a bath. This is convenient for people who like to take a bath.
To test the performance of the bathroom, there is no need for Master Chen and Zhou Ziwen.
Chen Qiaoyi excitedly went to light the fire, while Chen Shiying added water to the bathtub.
Actually, this bathtub is not finished yet.
After all, bathtubs made of stone are relatively rough, and the bottom needs to be heated, so it will be very hot when people step on it.
So Zhou Ziwen planned to make an insulation box in the bathtub using wooden boards.
When the time comes, people lying in it will not get burned and will feel very comfortable.
But that's for later, now I have to finish the rest of the bathroom.
With Chen Qiaoyi lighting the fire, the water temperature in the bathtub quickly rose.
Zhou Ziwen and Master Chen observed it and found that there was nothing wrong.
"It should be done. The next step is to make a wooden box. You can ask Liang Laowu for this." Master Chen said.
"Master, I know a little bit about carpentry." Zhou Ziwen said honestly.
Although Liang Laowu's carpentry skills are definitely better than his, they are not very bad either. In a few days, his carpentry skills will be upgraded to level three.
Moreover, this wooden box can be disassembled. He plans to make one first, and then make a better one when his carpentry skills are higher.
After all, seeing Liang Laowu still requires money. Although he is not short of money, he does not like to waste it. (End of this chapter)
