Chapter 30 These furniture styles are really nice
Xu Zhichun was at a loss for words: "But..."
"That's it. Are you not allowed to help me with other things in the future?"
If Xu Zhichun refused again, it would seem hypocritical. "Alright, thank you very much."
"You are welcome."
Xu Zhichun took out his own large bowl and poured out the peanut pork knuckle. He asked Aunt Zhu'er to wait for a moment, then quickly added brown sugar water to stir-fry and thicken the sauce. He then served a small half bowl of braised pork to Aunt Zhu'er. "I made it with the pork belly I bought yesterday. It should taste good too. Take it back and try it."
Looking at the bright red, juicy, and succulent cubes of braised pork, steaming hot and fragrant, Aunt Zhuer couldn't help but swallow and smile: "How can it be just good? It smells so good. I'm going back to eat too!"
"Take care, auntie."
Xu Zhichun and Liang Mingxuan, uncle and sister-in-law, also set up the table for dinner.
Braised pork, pork trotters with peanuts, lightly stir-fried rapeseed sprouts, and a large bowl of snow-white and crystal rice for each person.
After dinner, Xu Zhichun was busy making konjac tofu and konjac knots, and Liang Mingxuan helped him.
The child was steady and meticulous. Xu Zhichun instructed him to do everything quickly, well and to perfect standards, even more perfectly than Xu Zhichun had imagined.
Xu Zhichun was proud and proud. She was not bragging, but her child was really amazing. Not only was he good at studying, but he was also very good at his work.
It turns out that capable people have a good brain. They can draw inferences from one instance, apply it to other similar situations, and know everything. They are better than others at everything. I can't envy them enough.
The next morning, Xu Zhichun got up early again to make ice jelly.
This job was much easier in comparison. Xu Zhichun only used more than a pound of agar-agar seeds to make ice powder, and the rest was made with jelly found in the harbor warehouse.
Liang Mingxuan also got up and helped with the work.
At about the same time, Zeng Xiaoyan and her husband, Aunt Zhuer and Uncle Qi Tian all arrived.
Uncle Qi Tian was shocked last night when he heard his wife say that she had made so much money. But when he met Xu Zhichun today, his smile was especially sincere.
Good person!
Nowadays, anyone who is willing to help others get rich together is definitely a very good person.
"Zhichun, tell me what you want to make, and I'll make it for you right away."
"Hey, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Qi Tian."
Xu Zhichun has a lot of things to create.
In the kitchen, she needed a five-tiered storage rack to hold her jars, pots, and baskets of all sizes. In the storage room, she also needed two chests of drawers, each more than a meter tall, for storage. She also needed two bathtubs, one for her and her brother-in-law. Three large wooden barrels, each more than a meter tall, and three large basins were needed for soaking konjac tofu, konjac knots, and making ice jelly.
In addition, a set of wardrobes was built in her room and her brother-in-law's room, and a desk was added to her brother-in-law's room.
Qi Tian nodded and used charcoal to write and draw on a thin piece of wood, making marks that he could understand.
Xu Zhichun was relieved after seeing this. She was a little worried that if she said too much at once, Uncle Qi Tian would not be able to remember it. It seemed that the expert did the job and she didn't have to worry about it at all.
It was nothing else, but Xu Zhichun had his own ideas about the wardrobe and desk. Last night he even asked the child to take a pen and paper to draw a simple picture.
At this moment, she took the simple diagram and showed it to Qi Tian, explaining it one by one.
The wardrobe Xu Zhichun wanted to build was a modern modular wardrobe. It was a large wardrobe with five doors, divided into several layers of varying sizes, with two drawers built in and two long blank spaces above which wooden rods served as horizontal beams for hanging clothes.
The desk is made into a rectangle, and there is a bookcase connected to the table top, which is also divided into grids of different sizes for convenient placement of pens, inkstones, paper and books.
When Qi Tian saw the picture, he was stunned.
Xu Zhichun was a little nervous. The picture was very simple and she thought it should not be difficult to make, but she was not an expert and did not know whether her "feeling" was accurate.
After all, the generation gap between ancient and modern people does exist.
"Uncle Qi Tian, look at this—can you make it?"
Aunt Zhu'er was also a little nervous when she heard this. "This - Brother Qi, it's just a few pieces of furniture, isn't it?"
She made the promise in front of Zhichun with a pat on her chest, so Brother Qi should show some courage.
"Ah? Not difficult, not difficult. It's possible! It's amazing!" Qi Tian slapped his thigh and looked at Xu Zhichun excitedly, praising him: "Zhichun, your designs for the wardrobe and desk are brilliant, really brilliant! The desk is not only suitable for writing, but also convenient for storing things and can be used as a bookshelf. The wardrobe is divided like this, and the categories are clearly visible at a glance. It's really wonderful. I never thought it could be done this way in all the years I've been making furniture. It's really great."
Aunt Zhu'er patted her chest and laughed at him: "Look at you, you didn't tell me earlier and scared me. Zhichun is smart, she can think of a lot. If you can do it, then you should do it quickly."
Xu Zhichun also laughed: "I was just thinking about how to make it convenient. If it works, that would be great."
The house at home is old and she doesn't want to tinker with the furniture anymore. Making money is more important. Once she has saved enough money to build a new house, she can then make a full set of furniture according to her own preferences. That would be great.
She actually wanted to sleep on an ancient step-up bed, and would think about other things later, but she must have an authentic step-up bed.
Qi Tian said, "Zhichun, I want to discuss something with you. Can I make your wardrobe and desk for someone else?"
Xu Zhichun couldn't help but smile and nodded: "Of course."
She was surprised that Uncle Qi Tian would ask her. After all, in this day and age, what was there to care about intellectual property? Even if Uncle Qi Tian hadn't asked her and had just done it for someone else, she wouldn't have known.
Besides, whether it's a wardrobe or a desk, others can just copy the styles they see, so why would they need to ask her?
Qi Tian couldn't help but be delighted to see her so straightforward, and hurriedly added, "Such unique and convenient furniture will surely be very popular. I can't take advantage of you for nothing. These furniture I made for you are my reward. I won't charge you a penny, not even for the wood. Don't worry, I'll make sure to use the best materials for you."
"this--"
"Don't refuse."
Aunt Zhu'er also laughed: "Zhichun, since your uncle Qi Tian said so, it means it should be like this. Don't be polite."
Xu Zhichun hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise. After thinking about it, he felt that Uncle Qi Tian wouldn't lose out, and his family would also save a considerable amount of money. "Thank you very much, Uncle Qi Tian."
"Haha, you're welcome. I should be the one thanking you."
Qi Tian was in high spirits and had no time to rest. Seeing them get on the ox cart to the city, he hurried home to start working.
The inspiration is overflowing and we can’t delay it, right?
He was in a state of excitement, a sudden enlightenment, a sense of being able to draw inferences from one instance to another. He needed to think carefully while he was working on it, to make this wardrobe well.
When they arrived in the city, Zeng Xiaoyan and Aunt Zhuer set up the stall first as usual, and Xu Zhichun and Liang Mingliang went to deliver the goods.
It's a new month, please give me a monthly ticket o(*￣︶￣*)o
