Chapter 175 Furniture Repair



The room was clean and tidy, and the girl specifically emphasized that all the bedding and sheets were new.

She didn't have much luggage, so after putting it down, Mu Ruanruan asked her about Jiang Lan. The girl said she didn't know her and asked her who Jiang Lan was.

Maybe the girl had only been working here for a short time. After all, Mu Ruanruan had been in Shangshui Village for more than two years and didn't know her, so she didn't say anything.

The girl told her to have a good rest and left. When she was leaving, she remembered that she had not introduced herself. She leaned against the door and said embarrassedly, "Sister, just call me Xiao He. I'm leaving now. I'll come and call you for dinner later. Do you want to eat here or go to the cafeteria?"

Mu Ruanruan was puzzled.

Xiao He: "Eat here and I'll bring it to you."

Mu Ruanruan: "No, I'll just go to the cafeteria to eat."

Estimated to stay for a maximum of two nights, Mu Ruanruan only took some simple toiletries and lay down on the bed to rest. Xiao He knocked on the door again and said, "Sister, the bicycle factory manager has already sent it back. You don't have to worry."

"Huh? Oh, okay."

The bicycle was borrowed from the processing factory in Zhao Town, so she should return it. However, there was no need to be so eager to do so, as she would need it on the day she left.

However, the factory director was kind-hearted, so Mu Ruanruan didn't say anything. At worst, she could just walk to the town by herself when the time comes. It's not like she had done that before.

It was a little late, and it was too late to look for Jiang Lan. Mu Ruanruan lay down for half an hour, then got up and looked around.

The factory manager saw her and greeted her from a distance, "Xiao Mu, you must be bored. Do you want Xiao He to walk with you?"

"No, I'm just taking a walk."

"Okay, call me if you need anything."

"good."

Most of the village is occupied by farms. Just as Xiao He said, they were all moved together in the past. They are located at the front end of the village. In the middle, except for a few farmlands planted with crops, the rest are pig houses.

She walked inside. The two rows at the back were filled with piglets, some of which were newly born. Some people were cleaning and shoveling pig manure.

The place is clean, and apart from the few things that have been cleaned, there is not much smell.

She originally thought that the village would be filled with pungent smells, but when she walked in she found that it was not so bad.

I didn’t expect Zhang Jiajia to make her business so big. The tallest building is the office, with big blue words “Yuanyuan No. 1 Breeding Farm” on the top.

Yuanyuan?

Interesting name.

She smiled and continued walking inside.

Many farmlands no longer grow rice and have been converted into dry fields where sweet potatoes are grown. The workers said that these are food for the piglets in the pig farms.

Several people wearing straw hats were cutting sweet potato vines, tying them into bundles, and transporting them to the farm.

Mu Ruanruan felt amazed again when she thought that these things had become human food in modern times.

The road is paved with cement all the way to the innermost uninhabited area.

She was curious about where this road could lead to.

Going further in, the population started to become sparse, but there were still a few houses, and smoke began to rise from the roofs.

Uncle Peng's house is at the innermost part and was previously blocked by a group of trees. Now those trees have been cut down and the gray house can be seen from a long distance.

It looked like someone had repaired it, and the roof was covered with thick thatch.

It has been uninhabited for a few years now, so it should have fallen into disarray, but it is not. It is still well paved, and the collapsed wall of the yard has been rebuilt.

The windows were still covered with newspapers, but the newspapers seemed a bit new. Mu Ruanruan went over to take a look and found that they were indeed newspapers from the last six months.

Someone is really taking care of this house.

She remembered that the village chief would find someone to repair the dilapidated houses of the elderly in the village in his spare time, so she thought it was the village chief who did it.

The door was keyed, so the windows were sealed from the outside and easily broken, and some were already broken.

When she came here, she thought of coming here to take a look. She brought the key with her and opened the door. There was a faint musty smell in the room, as if no one had lived in it for a long time.

The trees in front and behind the house have been cut down, so the ventilation is good. If you open the doors in front and back of the house, the smell in the house will quickly dissipate.

The furniture was old but functional, just the paint was chipping.

Now, she won't stay here for long, and she doesn't know what to do with this house. If she renovates it, it seems to be of no use, as she won't live here. But if she doesn't move it, it looks like it will collapse in a few years.

Many of the furniture in this room are unusable and loose, but they are all wedding items for Mr. and Mrs. Peng, so they are meaningful things.

Or, should we find someone to repair these furniture?

She remembered that there was a carpenter in Shangshui Village. His surname was Gao and everyone called him Master Gao.

That person was a craftsman and especially liked to tinker with furniture. The furniture he made was very exquisite. At that time, Mu Ruanruan wanted to ask him to make a cabinet, but she left soon after.

The cabinet and other things have never been made.

Now, why not ask him to renovate the furniture here.

As for the house, we’ll talk about it when we have time.

Relying on her memory, Mu Ruanruan closed the door and walked towards Master Gao's house.

At that time, he was in his thirties, a bachelor, and he could feed his whole family. He lived a good life, but no one knew why he never got married.

Now, I have moved into a new house, which is a two-story building of medium size. The exterior walls are not painted, but the interior is painted very white.

The furniture in the house must have been made by himself. Whether it is the front door or the stools in the main room, the patterns are all lifelike and very exquisite.

There was a babbling sound inside. Did he finally get married?
