[Chapter 429 Chapter 429 The Prime Minister also wants to get involved]
Shen Junlin raised his eyebrows and looked at Cheng Liyan with a complicated look.
It was as if he was asking him, "How could I not understand this truth?"
Cheng Liyan really wanted to refute, no, you really don’t understand.
You brothers and sisters have too high standards and don’t understand that what you consider low-key is actually a luxury in the eyes of ordinary people!
He was about to speak, but Shen Junlin had already asked, “Brother-in-law, why don’t you tell me about the taboos of the emperor here.
I already know that the royal symbol here is the dragon, and I already know that dragons are not allowed to fly into ordinary people's homes. What else?"
He thought for a moment and asked, "Red five-star?"
"No, no, no." Cheng Liyan was troubled by his question.
Once again, I clearly realized that there were huge differences in their ideas.
After that, Cheng Liyan stopped strolling around the yard and pulled Shen Junlin to talk a lot in one breath.
As for how much Cheng Liyan understood, he was not sure, but he basically said everything he could.
Cheng Liyan made a decision in his heart. At worst, he wouldn't rely entirely on his third uncle and would just supervise the work himself.
At worst, you can ask for the emperor's opinion when asking for something. That would be more appropriate.
At the same time that Cheng Liyan made the decision, Shen Junlin also made the same decision.
However, his decision was obviously the opposite of Cheng Liyan's.
Shen Junlin felt that he had finally found his place!
No matter what his sister and brother-in-law thought, Shen Junlin always felt that the Shen family was able to have a smooth transition. After their father resigned, the three brothers were not marginalized and all became important figures. His sister's family played a very important role in this.
They just benefited from the goddess's influence and were looked up to by the emperor and all the officials.
Otherwise, no matter how outstanding their abilities are, it is impossible for one prefecture to have three officials of the third rank or above!
It is even more impossible for civil and military to exist at the same time.
This has never happened in the history of Wushuang Country.
Although my family and my sister and brother-in-law have been in frequent contact over the years and we have helped each other a lot.
But Shen Junlin still felt that he owed his sister and brother-in-law a lot.
This time he felt that there was finally something he could do. He must tidy up the yard for his sister's family and make them satisfied!
As soon as Shen Junlin got home, he wrote a letter to his father, telling him about his ideas and drawing a plan of the yard for his father based on what he had seen in the morning.
Although this yard was still a little too small in Shen Junlin's eyes and he couldn't move around at all.
But he also knew that this was already an excellent yard here.
After reading his son's letter, Prime Minister Shen also became interested.
The main reason is that the old man has been retired for many years and has nothing to do at home.
In the early years, I could still enjoy the company of my grandchildren, but now my two older sons have gone to other places and have not come back for many years.
The third child, his wife has not been heard from for several years since she gave birth to a son and a daughter.
Mingyue doesn’t say anything now, she has become a grown-up girl.
The boy Minghua is already six years old this year and has already entered school.
He was the only old man left at home, doing nothing every day.
Now that his son has said he wants to help his daughter build a yard, the old man also wants to get involved and give them a hand.
Cheng Liyan's words at that time came into play at this time.
Cheng Liyan said that it only takes two or three days to learn how to install the solar energy system, so there is no need to rush.
Because it is cold now and there is little sunshine, the effect may not be very good even if it is installed.
Besides, it would be a real torture to install it on the roof in such a cold weather.
There is no need to sacrifice yourself for the old emperor's momentary happiness.
Cheng Liyan said this to make his wife happy.
After all, he had already seen that his wife wanted his third brother to stay longer.
It’s best to stay at home for the New Year.
Besides, what he said was true. In this kind of weather, the effect of solar energy cannot be compared with that in summer.
Instead of rushing to finish your studies and leave, it is better to take it slow and play for a while.
But when Cheng Liyan said this, he didn't know that his third uncle actually heard it all to heart.
Not only did he completely forget about solar energy, he also focused all his attention on repairing the yard.
Afterwards, he found himself suddenly free.
The third uncle no longer comes to him for help, but instead starts to discuss things with his sister.
Today he draws a pattern for a window pane, and tomorrow he gets some other blueprint.
Later, Cheng Liyan discovered that his father-in-law seemed to have appeared as well.
He actually saw the old prime minister's handwriting on a design drawing of a corridor!
Cheng Liyan just felt that this matter was getting worse and worse!
He pondered the issue for a whole day, and finally went to talk to his wife.
Who knew that after hearing this, Shen Yuyao revealed an expression almost exactly the same as her brother's.
Then he said, "You really think too much. With me in charge, none of the things you think of will happen.
Don’t worry, you’ll understand once the house is built, and those things that you can’t explain clearly won’t appear.”
With his wife's promise, Cheng Liyan felt completely relieved.
Normally, during the coldest months of winter, people would not start construction at home.
The main reason is that the weather is too cold and the soil is too hard, making construction difficult.
But the situation in Shen Yuyao's family is a little different.
Because they are renovating an old house, there is no need to dig a foundation or anything like that.
Moreover, since Shen Junlin took over the project, the previous projects have basically been suspended. The only thing they have to do now is to build a firewall.
Yes, Shen Junlin built firewalls in all the rooms in this courtyard.
For an old courtyard like this, central heating will not be available now, even in a few decades, and families will have to rely on their own heating.
In Wushuang Country, nobles’ homes mainly rely on fire walls and floor heating for heating, so Shen Junlin plans to install a set of them in his sister’s home as well.
He asked his father to find someone to draw the construction drawings, and then he personally supervised the work.
In addition, they also found many patterns of window lattices and asked the sister to choose the one she liked and send it back to Wushuang Country to find craftsmen for custom-made designs.
As for the wood needed to build the house, the old emperor naturally agreed readily.
Knowing that it was the goddess who asked for it, the old emperor would not refuse even if it was more than a few pieces of wood.
After all, there has been no news coming back from the people who went out to look for herbs.
And here the goddess sent another hundred trumpets.
With so many people taking care of it, the project in the courtyard naturally went smoothly.
Although it is cold now and it is the twelfth lunar month, some projects have to be temporarily suspended.
But everyone knows that once the weather warms up, their project will enter a stage of rapid progress.
