Zhou Xiang couldn't help but burst out laughing, looking at Ling Ran beside him, "It's really hard."
Ling Ran ruffled his wife's hair vigorously, "Gleeful."
Ling Quan and Dong Yunrong, who were despised for being good for nothing, had no choice but to go to the next door.
The gate to the courtyard next door was already open, and Erniu also opened the door and windows of his room for ventilation. There was a lot of dust in the room, which was particularly noticeable under the sunlight.
Several people stood in the yard. Erniu borrowed Professor Chu's tools and began to turn the soil.
Ling Quan couldn't help but retort to his father, "Didn't you say you were going to farm? Why is Erniu doing the work?"
Grandpa Ling threw the remaining cucumber tail in his hand at his son's head, "If you make any more noise, I'll make you dig the soil."
Ling Quan dodged the attacking 'hidden weapon', pursed his lips and said no more. He couldn't do this job. Besides, if he didn't do it even though he could, his father would definitely be dissatisfied with him.
Zhou Xiang now understood how Ling Ran and his father-in-law got along. It was inherited.
Pulling Ling Ran into the gate, he said, "Let's see how to change it."
The main door opens to the east. The first floor is over 100 square meters. The east side is occupied by the living room except for the kitchen on the north side.
The western part has a bathroom on the north side, with the stairs hidden by the bathroom door, and the dining room on the south side.
Two concrete pillars were erected between the living room and the dining room to support the second floor.
The second floor is also very simple. There is a cloakroom above the kitchen and a bathroom above the bathroom.
The exit of the stairs can be used as a small living room or open study, with a small bedroom above the living room and a large bedroom above the dining room.
Zhou Xiang did all this according to the needs of young people, but who knew that the elderly would also like it.
The teacher is in good health and the steps are wide, making it convenient to go up and down the stairs.
Mr. Ling is already in his seventies, and it is inconvenient for him to go up and down the stairs every day.
The renovation method Ling Ran pointed out was completely opposite to the bedroom Zhou wanted to make for the blind lady.
That is, convert the entire dining room into a bedroom, move the bathroom into the bedroom, build a wall starting from the stairs, and make a cabinet in the small, low area under the stairs at the bathroom door to store sanitary products.
Two pillars were built into the wall, so that the room formed on the west side was more than 60 square meters, which was enough for the old man and Erniu to live in.
The area right after the entrance can be used as a dining room with a small dining table. The area next to the window was originally the living room and it is still the living room.
Zhou Xiang nodded, "Your modification is more reasonable than the partition I made for the blind lady."
"This side has a brick wall, and that side has a screen partition. Of course, they use different methods."
Mr. Ling was also satisfied. "Okay, we have a solution. Let's get someone to fix it right away."
Ling Quan pulled his father and said, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. Today is the day we move."
"Okay, okay, then tomorrow, Ling Ran, I'll leave it to you. Just use red bricks and cement, nothing else. We also need to get rid of the smell, and it will take too long."
"But the cement for the wall needs time to dry! Otherwise, the house will be damp."
"Then use furniture to separate them!"
Before Ling Ran could give a reason, Zhou Xiang grabbed his arm and said, "Okay, let's find a way to get Grandpa to move in as soon as possible."
"Yes! That's it."
Then, Xiao Chen was called by Zhou Xiang and told about the renovation plan. "Xiao Chen, use dry wood and saw it in half, with the bark facing outwards and the sawed surface facing inwards. Make the partition as soon as possible. Don't use paint or glue. The old man wants to move in as soon as possible."
Xiao Chen nodded, "Do you keep the bark or peel it off?"
Zhou Xiang looked at the old man, and Old Man Ling nodded, "Keep it. It would be ugly if it was stripped bare. You guys built the front yard of the food station, right? I want to make it prettier too."
"Okay! I'll measure the dimensions, buy the wood, and start construction in two days."
Old Master Ling walked out of the door with satisfaction to watch Erniu plowing the soil.
Dong Yunrong sighed, "You are the only ones who are willing to go along with him."
Ling Quan supported his wife's shoulders and said, "Okay, as long as the old man is happy, let's go! Go back and look after the three babies. It's time to go to bed."
"Let's go, let's go. I can't take care of the old one. I'm going to take care of the young one."
The Zhou family members from the blind lady's side also followed back to the Zhou residence.
After coaxing the three babies, it was already past four in the afternoon. Zhou's mother finally felt her mother-in-law's reluctance to let her go. It was time for her to go back to the Zhou family. She couldn't bear to leave!
Dong Yunrong held her mother-in-law's hand and said, "I will leave without looking back. I will go home and finish what I need to do quickly. I will be able to come again tomorrow morning, and I will feel relieved."
Mother Zhou was also worried when she thought about the things at home. She called her eldest daughter home and said, "Let's go. There are still many things at home that we haven't prepared yet!"
Zhou Xiang took out his cell phone and asked, "Mom, what's the phone number of the wedding company?"
"what?"
"I asked them to prepare more flowers. The furniture in Third Brother's building is a bit outdated, so we need more flowers."
Zhou's mother gave her the phone number, and Zhou Xiang added, "By the way, Sister Guo's family will have a day off on May Day."
Mother Zhou nodded, "I understand."
The large group left, and the building fell silent. Ling Ran sighed, "This morning, I felt like there weren't enough rooms. Now that everyone's gone, it's quiet."
Zhou Xiang pointed to the aluminum alloy window on the fence of the skylight and said, "If you want to listen to the noise, just open the window."
"That's the noise."
Zhou Xiang ignored him, made a phone call and put forward his request to the wedding company.
The wedding company agreed to come to the town on the 30th, which is the day after tomorrow, to take a look at the new house.
For dinner, Professor Chu and Senior Jiang naturally came to Zhou's house. They needed popularity here and it was close to them. The Zhou family had a lot of things to do, so they didn't want to cause more trouble.
