Chapter 86 Beating Furniture
Unable to refuse such a kind offer, Gao Lei had to accept the gifts, leaving two big fish for Wu Agui and sending the rest back home.
Zhao Dongling knew that it was a thank-you gift from Chen Wenjun, and she was filled with emotion again. Thinking of her youngest son's injury, she couldn't help but mutter, "I don't want to say anything if you like to play with those messy people, and I can't stop you, but since you can play everything together, you might as well play with Chen Wenjun.
It's okay to go fishing with him, fishing is fun and not dangerous. I think you should go with Chen Wenjun in the future."
Gao Lei really scared her this time. She almost lost her son. During this period, she kept nagging Gao Lei in his ear, asking him not to hang out with that group of hooligans anymore, but Gao Lei wouldn't listen and got angry if she said too much.
Zhao Dongling could only settle for the second best and start from somewhere else.
Gao Lei waved his hands impatiently, "Mom, Chen Wenjun is my savior, I recognize him as my brother, Agui and the others are my younger brothers, they are not gangsters at all, don't say such harsh words, anyway, I will definitely not do anything dangerous again in the future, you can rest assured, don't worry about the rest."
"You...you are going to piss me off to death!" Zhao Dongling's eyes turned red with anxiety, but she had no way to deal with her youngest son.
Chen Wenjun, who was delivering the things back, had no idea about all this mess.
I was thinking about something in my mind. I had almost paid back the more than 300 yuan I owed Zhang Yongquan. The materials given by Gao Lei were all there. Now I had to consider whether to continue with the decoration or wait and make the furniture first.
When he got home, he immediately pulled Lin Qin over to discuss it.
Lin Qin said without thinking: "We must make the furniture first. If nothing else, we must at least get four beds first. The cabinets, tables and chairs can wait. When the beds are here, we can sleep in real beds. Then we can decorate the first floor as long as we want."
They are sleeping on wooden boards now. The second floor is so clean, why put red bricks and wooden boards up there?
Chen Wenjun also felt that what Lin Qin said made sense, so he had no choice but to go to Lin Yi to ask about the carpenter.
Lin Yi has recently become obsessed with cycling. After hearing Chen Wenjun's request, he immediately said that he could go to Shanglin Village right away.
Chen Wenjun sent him to the shore.
Lin Yi carried his bicycle onto the road and disappeared from Chen Wenjun's sight in a hurry.
As soon as he entered Shanglin Village, he was discovered by Lin Qingxiang who was working in the fields.
"Hey! Where did you get the bicycle? Did you buy it yourself?"
Lin Yi grinned and nodded vigorously. "My two children go to the Municipal Experimental Primary School. It will be easier to pick them up with a bicycle. Look, Wenjun just bought one. Once I get my hands on it, I can pick them up from school."
Lin Qingxiang gave a thumbs up and said teasingly, "Did you ride back specially to show off? Aren't you afraid that Lin Zhi and his wife will be pissed to death?"
Speaking of Lin Zhi and his wife, Lin Yi's smile faded a little. "I'm not that free! It's Aqin and his wife who are planning to make furniture and are looking for a carpenter. I'll go to Afu to see if he doesn't have any work. Let him do it. Make the bed first. With the bed, we can move to the second floor and start decorating the first floor."
Lin Qingxiang was very surprised. "Didn't they say they still owed foreign debts for renovating the second floor? Why are they renovating the first floor so soon?"
Lin Yi vaguely told the story of Chen Wenjun saving people.
Lin Qingxiang sighed again, "Good deeds are rewarded. Well, this can save several thousand dollars! Then you go first, and come to me if you need help."
"Okay!"
Lin Yi went to the village and stayed in Shanglin Village for almost an hour before leaving.
Lin Zhi and Li Lian also learned that Lin Yi came back on a bicycle. Just as Lin Qingxiang said, they were furious and scolded Lin Yi and Lin Qin at home.
After a busy day, it’s already the tenth month of the lunar calendar.
It was already cold at this time, but Anshi still has four distinct seasons. Frost began to fall in October. When I woke up in the morning, it was very cold outside. The leaves and grass buds outside the yard were covered with a layer of crystal clear white frost.
Early in the morning, the two children were woken up by Lin Yi. Yaya shrank back due to the cold as soon as she lifted the quilt.
Ping'an obediently started to put on his clothes.
Lin Yi couldn't help but scold Yaya, "Look at your brother, he has already started to get dressed, but you are still lying in bed. If you are late for school later, I won't wait for you!"
Yaya pouted, resigned herself to picking up her clothes and putting them on, all the while complaining that she was very cold.
Lin Yi opened his mouth and white smoke came out. He also muttered, "It's really cold. I'll send you to school later and weigh a few pounds of wool to knit a sweater for each of you."
The two children's eyes lit up instantly.
The speed of putting on clothes and pants is obviously much faster.
Lin Yi remembered that Ping An didn't seem to have a sweater, so he asked casually, "Didn't your dad knit a sweater for you?"
Ping An shook his head honestly, "Dad doesn't know how to knit sweaters. In the past, I stayed in the back cabin in winter and slept until almost noon. It was very warm at that time, and it wasn't cold to go out on the deck to bask in the sun. When the sun went down, my dad and I went to bed, and there was no need to wear thick clothes.
Sometimes when it’s too cold, I wear my dad’s clothes, because I’m not going out anyway.”
Lin Yi felt particularly sad when he heard this. He had originally planned to knit two sets, but now he was planning to make four sets.
After the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren finished their breakfast, Lin Yi paddled the two children across the river on a bamboo pole, parked the boat, carried the bicycles off the boat, and took the two children to school.
Because buying wool took some time, when he returned to Nanxi, he found that Lin Qingxiang and Ah Fu were there.
There's a bunch of stuff on the side.
He hurried down carrying the bicycle, "Is the bed ready?"
Ah Fu smiled and nodded at him. "According to your request, all beds are 1.8 meters tall. We asked a tractor to deliver them here. What do you think we should do now? Should we help you deliver them back?"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Lin Yi hurriedly took action and moved the things onto the boat with Afu Lin Qingxiang.
Now they no longer live in five-sailed boats. Some of the bamboo sails on the boats have been removed, leaving only the rear cabin, and the front has been turned into a cargo ship for transporting goods.
It's not a problem to transport four beds at once.
It was Ah Fu’s first time to ride on a Tanka boat and also his first time to visit Nanyu. He was amazed at everything he saw and had something to say about everything, not hiding his envy at all.
"I was wondering why you had to live in your son-in-law's house instead of living in your perfectly good house or farming your land. Now I finally understand! If I also had a son-in-law like this who was willing to take care of me, I would never go home again!"
Lin Yi was amused and laughed out loud, "Let's go! Let's move our things to the second floor first. After the bed is installed, we can stay for a meal. I have planted a lot of vegetables here, so we can have whatever you want to eat."
Along the way, Ah Fu indeed discovered a large field planted with vegetables, and he definitely couldn't eat them all at home.
When they reached the edge of the paddy field, he asked in confusion, "We can't grow rice now, so why do we keep it so nice?"
Lin Yi replied cheerfully, "I plan to plant some lotus roots next month. There is a lot of wasteland on the island anyway. After the lotus roots are planted, I will open some paddy fields and plant rice next year."
