Jianshu followed him obediently, ready to visit the new home where, unless something unexpected happened, they would have to live for at least four to five years.
The yard was very clean and the layout of the house was very simple. Opposite the door were three main rooms, the middle one was the living room, the right side was the bedroom for two people, and the left side was divided into two rooms, one large and one small.
The larger room will be used as a guest room temporarily, and can be converted into a children's room when the couple has children in the future.
The smaller room was converted into a study by Gu Mingjing, with a desk and bookcases installed, and a small bed placed in the corner. If guests came and there wasn't enough room at home, they could squeeze into the study. Of course, it also made it easy for Jianshu to kick Gu Mingjing out when he got angry and send him to sleep in the study.
Gu Mingjing also separated a small bathroom from the master bedroom for the two of them. After taking a shower, they can go directly back to the room from the bathroom. Even in winter, they don’t have to worry about catching a cold.
The kitchen was just behind the main room, with a back door in the corner that led directly to the backyard. A row of neatly stacked firewood sat against the wall, enough to last for a while.
The backyard is larger than the front yard. Jianshu plans to use it to grow vegetables. She doesn't care about the harvest. She mainly uses it to cover the things she took out from the space.
Going out from the backyard door, you will see the back mountain that Gu Mingjing had mentioned before. The mountain is not very high. Compared with the rolling mountains in the distance, the top of this mountain can only be regarded as a small hill. However, the vegetation on the mountain is quite lush.
Their house is not far from the foot of the mountain, which makes it convenient to enter the mountain, but there are no neighbors nearby. The nearest neighbor is hundreds of meters away. It is indeed very remote. No wonder no one is willing to live there.
People are social animals and like to live close to others. Who would choose this place? Jianshu has many secrets and my ideas are different from others, so I like it here.
Standing in the yard and looking at the environment around his new home, Jianshu became more and more satisfied.
A small courtyard with its own entrance and exit, isn't it much more fragrant than a noisy tube-shaped building?
Looking at her satisfied expression, Gu Mingjing's slightly uneasy heart finally settled down.
Although Jianshu had said before that she wanted a more remote place, he was always worried that she would regret it after visiting the place in person.
Now, I am finally completely relieved.
"Well done!" Jianshu patted Gu Mingjing's arm and praised him.
"As long as you like it."
"By the way, how do we keep warm in winter here?" Jianshu asked.
The winter in Northeast China is extremely cold.
As a person who is afraid of cold, this is what she cares about most. After all, after coming here, she can no longer hide in the space to keep warm in winter.
Gu Mingjing explained, "There are fire walls in every house. In winter, you can prepare more firewood and light the fire walls to keep warm."
"Firewall?" Jianshu was a little curious.
"Yes." Gu Mingjing took Jianshu to see the firewall and explained the principles behind it to her while watching.
Listening to Jianshu, I was filled with admiration. The wisdom of the working people is truly endless. Even if they can't make air conditioners or floor heating, they can still use the resources at hand to create all kinds of useful things to meet the needs of life.
"By the way, is there a cellar at home?" Jianshu asked again.
"Yes!" Gu Mingjing nodded.
How could Northeast China be without a cellar? He took Jianshu's hand and came to the kitchen. The cellar was just below the kitchen, and the entrance was in the corner, which was also convenient for taking things out later.
Jianshu followed him down and took a look around. The cellar was very large, even larger than the kitchen, and could store a lot of things.
At this time, the room was empty and there was nothing inside. The two of them took a quick look around and then came out.
However, Jianshu has already decided to slowly fill it up. After all, as a hoarder, how can I stand having empty spaces at home?
After a thorough tour of the house, Jianshu had a rough plan. Although Gu Mingjing had drawn the blueprints for her before, he had also made some modifications based on her suggestions.
But after all, she hadn't visited the place in person, so there was still room for improvement in many places, including the layout of the room. After all, this was where she would live for the next four or five years, so she didn't want to mess around.
When it comes to a place to live, of course the most important thing is comfort.
But there is no rush for these things for now. The most important thing is to fill your stomach first.
Jian Shu touched his rumbling stomach, shook Gu Mingjing's hand, and said confidently, "I'm hungry!"
Gu Mingjing smiled gently and rubbed her head. "The rice porridge should be almost cooked. Go wash your hands first and then prepare to eat!"
"Okay!" Jianshu agreed very straightforwardly, and then ran towards the kitchen.
After washing his hands, Jianshu went into the kitchen to help, and soon, rice porridge, buns, and salted duck eggs were on the table.
Jianshu was really hungry. He drank a mouthful of porridge, ate a bun, and added some salted duck eggs. He didn't bother to chat with Gu Mingjing and just focused on eating. Soon, he had finished a bowl of rice porridge and a bun.
With more food in her stomach, she slowed down her eating pace.
He filled another bowl of rice porridge, took a sip, and after putting down the bowl, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's so delicious!" The rice porridge was fragrant and soft, with a layer of rice oil floating on it, exuding a rich fragrance, which was very tempting.
Gu Mingjing couldn't help but laugh, and bluntly teased, "You're obviously hungry, so everything tastes good! Who told me some time ago that rice porridge was bland and tasteless?"
Recalling what he had said before, Jian Shu was a little embarrassed at first, then became angry and glared at him, "Do you know that people who like to spoil things easily end up without wives?"
For this kind of object, it’s better to just throw it away and not want it anymore, right?
"Shushu, I was wrong!" The threatened Gu Mingjing slid to his knees and immediately begged for mercy.
"Hmph!" Jian Shu snorted and ignored him.
Now you admit your mistake, why didn’t you know you were wrong when you were trying to sabotage her?
Seeing this, Gu Mingjing quickly put down his chopsticks, walked behind Jianshu, massaged her shoulders and back, served her tea and water, and almost fed her.
Jianshu, who was being served very comfortably, enjoyed himself for a while and waved his hand. "Okay, I'll let you go this time. Let's eat."
This man sometimes just can't help but be mean, and he needs to be punished from time to time.
Jianshu doesn't mind this. Life always needs some spice. Otherwise, it would be so boring if everything goes smoothly and dull every day.
Jianshu doesn’t know what other people’s married life is like, but she quite likes this kind of little life with all the fighting and bickering.
There is no logic that one must give in to the other. Who can gain the upper hand and who can win depends entirely on their ability.
The winner can put forward various small conditions. Of course, whether the other party agrees or not depends on their ability.
As for the little thing like Jianshu sometimes playing tricks when he can't be woken up, that's not important.
