On her way back, she followed the directions Lu Ze had given her and picked some wildflowers at the foot of the mountain behind the cafeteria.
After arriving home, I chilled the aluminum lunchbox with well water so that it wouldn't taste bad when I ate it at noon.
Yu Yao stood in the main room, looking at the somewhat simple room, and pondered how to decorate it.
A person's sense of belonging begins with decorating their home.
In her previous life in the city, she always rented a place and dreamed of owning her own house.
Having a house means having a home.
Many people work hard just to be able to settle down in a big city, but even after working themselves to the bone, they can't even save enough money to buy a toilet.
Everyone says that it's hard to find a suitable job in one's hometown and that big cities can't provide a place for one's body, but if one could live a stable life, who would want to be constantly on the move?
It's just the helplessness of being a corporate slave.
Although the house is a bit far from the sea, it's still on an island, so it's practically a "sea view house with a view of the sea and spring flowers in bloom," so of course you can do whatever makes you comfortable.
Yu Yao looked through all the rooms, noted down the furniture and items she needed, and finally took out the small yellow flowers she had picked and put them in the large pot.
The natural wood tables and chairs, the simple bluestone walls, the slightly old doors and windows, and the wildflowers in the large pots, all combine to create the idyllic vacation style of later generations.
The yard is quite large, and the left side gets good sunlight, so it's a good place to grow some common vegetables, so we won't have to go to the market to buy them. We'll plant eggplants, green peppers, and bok choy.
We'll also plant some of the yellow lantern pepper, which is unique to the island.
Planting a few dragon fruit and pineapple trees along the fence makes them great ingredients for desserts or drinks.
Passion fruit was introduced to China in the 1970s. Although it is not cultivated on a large scale, you should still be able to find some if you look for it.
If you find one, plant one in your yard. Passion fruit has beautiful flowers, produces a lot of fruit, and has lush leaves. You can also build a trellis so you can sit under it and enjoy the shade in the summer.
In her previous life, she saw some farmers doing this when she traveled to Guangxi.
Yu Yao pulled out the weeds in the yard. After she finished, she remembered that she hadn't washed the clothes she had changed out of yesterday, so she took an enamel basin to the public hand pump well to wash them.
I only realized the clothesline was too high when I was about to hang the clothes to dry.
She stood on tiptoe and tried her best, but she was still a little short.
Just as she was about to go back to her room to get a stool, a gentle voice came from the courtyard next door: "Commander Lu's wife, we have a clothesline pole, would you like to use it?"
