At around eight o'clock, Jia Dongsheng returned to the courtyard and planned to go straight to the middle courtyard, but was stopped by the third aunt.
"Auntie, is there anything wrong?" Jia Dongsheng looked puzzled.
He passed by the Intermediate Court every day, but he didn't talk to the three aunts very often.
"Dongsheng, your uncle wants to treat you to dinner tonight. Do you have time?"
The third aunt showed a friendly smile, but in Jia Dongsheng's eyes, this smile gave him the feeling that she was plotting against him.
"Yes, I have."
But even if she really wanted to scheme, Jia Dongsheng was not so easy to be schemed, and nodded directly: "Third Master has been a boss for many years, I must have time."
"As long as there is time, it's good."
The third aunt smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Then Dongsheng, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go to the market to buy some vegetables. You and your third uncle can have a good drink tonight."
"Okay, thank you, Auntie."
After saying goodbye to the third aunt, Jia Dongsheng felt a little confused, but he didn't take it too seriously. The Yan family's calculations were all small calculations. The pattern was there, and they hadn't calculated anything big in the whole drama.
I turned around and put the doubts behind me.
Back in the central courtyard, Jia Zhang was holding Huaihua, swaying left and right. It must be said that although Jia Zhang favored boys over girls, she was still very clear when taking care of the children at home.
"mom."
"Why did you come back? Why didn't you go straight to work?"
It was past eight o'clock and Qin Huairu had already gone to work. Qin Huairu had a special enthusiasm for work and would not be late unless she had something to do or was waiting for Jia Dongsheng.
"No, the renovation of our house is almost done. Duan San said last night that we can go buy a fireplace. Once it's installed and tested, we can do the finishing touches."
That’s right, after more than ten days of renovation, the house is finally ready.
"real?"
Although she stayed in the yard every day, Jia Zhang only cooked for Duan San and others. She didn't know anything else and didn't ask.
"Yeah, really."
Jia Dongsheng was also very excited. The house was renovated and his tiger skin mattress was also ready. He could just spread it directly on the kang and it would definitely be very comfortable to sleep on.
"Then you should get busy." Hearing that the house was really going to be renovated, Jia Zhang became a little impatient.
"Then I'll go over."
After Jia Dongsheng finished speaking, he walked towards his home. Duan San had been waiting for a long time.
It was early in the morning, and Duan San and others came to work at three or four o'clock, forcing Yan Fugui to get up early and open the door. Looking at the door, Yan Fugui is still very responsible.
"Third brother."
"Brother Dongsheng, you're here."
Duan San came over with a big smile on his face. "Brother Dongsheng, you were late yesterday. Come in today and see how the house is renovated. If you think it's okay, after installing the fireplace, the interior will be finished. You can just renovate the front and we'll be done."
"Okay, let me take a look."
Hearing Duan San's words, Jia Dongsheng smiled and nodded, his eyes looking around.
Although the front face has not been completely completed, the four large glass panels have been installed. At first glance, these four large glass panels give people a feeling that the interior is very spacious.
"Go in and take a look."
Jia Dongsheng walked in. The layout of the house had been completely completed. The door was in the middle. There was a living room of more than ten square meters. There were two doors on each side, forming four rooms.
On the left is a bedroom and a study, on the right are two bedrooms, and directly opposite the door are three doors.
The kitchen, washroom and toilet are all separated.
"Brother Dongsheng, I'm decorating this completely according to the layout you described. Please take a look and see how we've done."
"Okay, let me see."
Jia Dongsheng stepped in. The floor was modeled after ancient gold bricks and was very smooth. However, because the decoration had not been completed yet, the floor was covered with dust and was not very bright.
However, it feels much better than the floor tiles of later generations.
I first looked at the bedroom on the left. This was Jia Dongsheng’s bedroom, and next door was the study.
The bedroom is not particularly large, about ten square meters, but it is still very spacious. The kang takes up half of the space, and the other half is open, where a wardrobe, a table, a stool, and a closet can be placed on the kang.
"good."
Jia Dongsheng nodded to show his satisfaction, then went next door and looked at the study. The wall between me and the study was concave, and the wall was actually hollow.
"Brother Dongsheng, this place is for installing a fireplace. I've left space for a normal fireplace. When the time comes, you can buy it, install it and use it."
"well."
Jia Dongsheng nodded, indicating that he understood. The hollow wall should be the firewall, but this was only on his side. Is there also a firewall on the opposite side?
"Third brother, this wall of fire is only on the left wall. Is it on the right wall as well?"
As he spoke, Jia Dongsheng pointed to the walls of the two bedrooms opposite and asked.
Winters these days are much colder than in later generations. More fire walls can make it warmer.
"Don't worry, Brother Dongsheng, the firewall has also been broken."
Duan San explained, "When I was renovating, I dug two pipes underground that lead to the opposite wall. When winter comes, when you light the fireplace here, I guarantee your house will be warm and you won't feel cold at all."
“This is good.”
Jia Dongsheng nodded in satisfaction, then walked to the study and took a look. There was nothing inside, it was empty. However, after taking a look, Jia Dongsheng already had an idea in his mind. He would put the bookshelf and the antique shelf in there, and then place a desk. It had to be decorated with ancient charm and a bit of artistic atmosphere.
Then he went to the bathroom and washroom.
Of course, there is no sit-down toilet in the bathroom, but a squat toilet. There is no other way, as there are no sit-down toilets in China at that time.
"Brother Dongsheng, I've connected the tap water. When the time comes, you can put a bucket there. After using the toilet, you can flush it with a bucket of water. You can flush it to the public toilet."
Duan San smiled and explained, "But a bucket of water might still have a bit of smell after flushing, so it's best to flush with two buckets each time."
"Yeah, I see."
Jia Dongsheng nodded and went to look at the washroom. It was much larger than the bathroom. It had a bathtub, a washbasin, and a sink in the middle of the washbasin.
As for the bathtub, it is built with golden bricks used to pave the floor. The surface is very smooth, and there is no possibility of getting your body scratched by lying in it.
Seeing this scene, Jia Dongsheng became more and more satisfied: "Third brother, not bad, very good."
"Haha, Brother Dongsheng, as long as you are satisfied."
Hearing Jia Dongsheng's affirmation, Duan San was also very happy and smiled. This task was assigned to him by Li Huaide. If Jia Dongsheng was not satisfied, he would easily be in trouble.
After looking at the washroom and toilet, I went to look at the kitchen.
A new large stove was built in the kitchen. When a big black pot is put on it, Jia Dongsheng will be able to show off his cooking skills.
In addition, there is a brick-built vegetable washing and cutting table, as well as a sink for washing vegetables and dishes. Needless to say, Jia Dongsheng is very satisfied with this kitchen.
