"Um."
After dinner, Xu Qingluo went to the room and took out a pen and paper to draw the furniture she wanted for Zhou Yuheng, and then asked him to take the drawing to find a craftsman to make it.
“Is it very cold in the north?”
"Yes, during the four months of winter, everyone rarely goes out, and we need to stock up on enough food."
"There is a cellar in the backyard for storing grain."
Xu Qingluo nodded. Although the north is not cold, at least it is not like the south where the cold weather can easily cause furniture to mold, so it is enough for the furniture to be durable and convenient.
Xu Qingluo drew a blueprint of a shoe cabinet. The shoe cabinet was a very simple style, with layers of wooden boards for storing shoes and two shoe cabinet doors.
As for the living room, she didn't plan to put too much furniture in it. A coffee table and a sofa would be enough for entertaining guests.
Xu Qingluo drew a sofa frame that could seat four people for Zhou Yuheng, as well as two single sofa frames. As for the sofa cushions, he could just make them himself with cotton when the time came.
The coffee table is rectangular with oval corners. Xu Qingluo doesn't like sharp corners and often bumps into them accidentally.
What's more, she and Zhou Yuheng will have children in the future, and the risk of the children being hit by the table legs can be avoided.
The dining table is also an ordinary round dining table. When it is painted brown, it can have a retro feel. As for the desk, she doesn't have any requirements.
What she values most is the wardrobe. Traditional wardrobes require clothes to be folded. Every time you take out clothes, the rest of the clothes will fall down with them. She can't help but feel annoyed every time she tidies them up.
Therefore, she left a space inside the closet for quilts, and designed the rest of the space as hanging areas. Simply hanging clothes can prevent wrinkles, and bringing clothes in from outside saves the step of folding clothes, saving some unnecessary housework.
As for cupboards and storage cabinets, she only requested that they be made like a shoe cabinet, with doors to prevent dust, and that the space on each layer be made higher so that there is enough space for taller items.
Storage cabinets and cupboards must be large enough to prevent the house from having too many things in the future and to provide a place to store things.
Xu Qingluo finished drawing the blueprint and gave it to Zhou Yuheng. After Zhou Yuheng took a look at it, he had to admit that his wife had a brilliant idea. He made some changes to the simple furniture, which instantly improved its ease of use.
"Anything else?"
These things can be made by a furniture maker, but Zhou Yuheng felt that his wife also had ideas about some of the small details.
Xu Qingluo smiled at him. This man really understood her. She told him that these were some large pieces of furniture, but some small items would need to be taken care of by Zhou Yuheng himself.
"We also need to make some storage boxes, both large and small."
"The more the better. They will always be useful."
"Especially the kitchen utensils, they all need to be hung up."
Zhou Yuheng understood what she meant. As for how to handle the details, Xu Qingluo left it to Zhou Yuheng to figure out on his own. After all, this family also needed Zhou Yuheng's participation.
"good."
Zhou Yuheng did not feel impatient at all. Instead, he was very happy that Xu Qingluo attached so much importance to their small family.
While decorating their little home with Xu Qingluo, Zhou Yuheng felt indescribable feelings in his heart, a sense of sweetness and a sense of happiness that he had never felt before.
Xu Qingluo kept chattering on and on, not feeling sleepy at all. Zhou Yuheng looked at her with gentle eyes and eyebrows, responding from time to time. Although he didn't say much, every word of Xu Qingluo was responded to.
———
Time passed quickly, and it was time for Zhou Yuheng to return to the team. Xu Qingluo and Zhou Li got up early to prepare food for him on the journey.
“Take this with you on the road.”
