Five days later, Yingbao and her family saw that the new house was ready, and the bed and wardrobe were finished.
They started moving. It was the dead of winter, so of course they were still living in the kind of heated kang bed that could be lit as soon as it was turned on.
"Yingbao, why do you want your grandpa and dad to make a bed? Don't we have a kang (heated brick bed)?" Wang Yitong initially thought that some rooms didn't have kangs or beds.
After walking around, I found that every room had a heated brick bed. Isn't this just a bunch of people who have nothing better to do than mess around with something they're doing?
“Hehe,” Yingbao said to her mother Wang Yitong in a coquettish tone, “Mom, it’s just that after a while, when my little brother and I go to school, we’re going to live in the county. So, I asked Grandpa and Dad to make more so that we can find someone to drive a big truck and move it over there so we can live there right away.”
Wang Yitong slapped her forehead, thinking: I've been so busy lately that I completely forgot about this.
Recently, I've had to rush around washing vegetables, washing meat, chopping meat, skewering meat and vegetables, digging for wild vegetables in the mountains, chopping wood, and making wardrobes, cabinets, bedside tables, bunk beds, double beds, and so on.
Everyone in the Ye family wishes they had four arms and eight legs.
Seeing her mother Wang Yitong patting her forehead, Yingbao knew that she must have been too busy to remember. She couldn't help but praise herself in her heart: Luckily, she had her mother, otherwise, so many things would have been delayed.
If Wang Yitong knew, she would definitely reply to Yingbao: There's absolutely no need!
...
Today, while moving, Yingbao brought along her father, Ye Tianyong, and mother, Wang Yitong, and added a lot of ingredients to the house, including rice, millet, noodles, brown sugar, maltose, and pastries…
"Yingbao, what's this?" Wang Yitong walked into a room and looked around at the several partitions she had never seen before, so she was quite curious.
"Wow!" Yingbao exclaimed happily as she looked at the spot her mother, Wang Yitong, was pointing to. "Mommy, this is the bathroom!"
Seeing that her mother, Wang Yitong, still seemed a little confused, Yingbao continued, "It's the place for bathing."
Wang Yitong looked on in amazement. When did even the bathing area become so luxurious? She loved it so much that she looked at it from the left and touched it from the right, and didn't want to leave the room.
The other women in the Ye family—Grandma Wang Cuihua, Aunt Lin Wan, Aunt Zhou Xiayun, and Aunt Ye Xiaolian—also looked as if they had never seen anything like it before. Their eyes were as wide as copper bells as they stared at the bathroom, pacing back and forth inside and outside the room, but they refused to step outside the door.
After all, the old Ye family used to have a bathing area right next to the toilet, and the smell was awful when they took a bath.
One day, Yingbao couldn't stand the smell anymore and insisted on having a big wooden tub made. Ye Tianyong didn't know how to make a big wooden tub, but Yingbao cleverly took out a tumbler from her space. She had printed out various pictures of bath tub designs and gave them to her father, Ye Tianyong. After her grandfather, Ye Yaozu, her father, and her uncle practiced many times, they finally made four tubs, one for each family.
The accessories in this house are now more convenient than the old wooden barrel.
Upon opening the curtain of the partition, one sees a shower head above, resembling one used in the 21st century. As soon as it's turned on, a rush of water ensues, and people stand inside to shower, wash their hair, and so on—it's all very convenient. Next to each other, there's a partition every two people, about 3 centimeters thick, made of thickened wood, making it very airtight.
This bathroom is perfect, absolutely stunning!
