I have a fiancée in Siheyuan
Chapter 31 1 Walls
Wake up early in the morning.
Bai Baoshan felt refreshed.
I looked at the marinated meat and there was nothing wrong with it, it was very good.
Qiao Yun was washing up at the door and saw Bai Baoshan get up and wash up quickly.
"Brother, good morning."
"Good morning, Qiao Yun.
I haven’t asked you about your school yesterday and how you got along with your classmates. "
"Of course it's great. Several of my good friends were so happy to see me back to school.
At noon, each of them was finally given two roast duck pancakes, but they were too embarrassed to ask for more. "
"Well, I'll bring you some meat, tortillas, and pickles from home today."
"Hehe, brother, you are so nice."
"Silly girl." Bai Baoshan knocked the girl's head.
Qiao Yun went back to her room laughing.
She came back after a while, not only had she changed her clothes, but she also combed her hair meticulously and braided it into a beautiful pigtail.
Bai Baoshan filled her lunch box with most of the meat removed from a big bone, some pickles, and two corn tortillas.
It’s enough for Qiao Yun to eat, and she can also give some to her classmates to bring them closer.
Bai Baoshan knew that this was not a good idea and might foster bad thoughts in some people, but Qiao Yun needed some classmates to give her extra lessons these days, so some compensation was due.
Breakfast was simple, a boiled egg, pork belly and cornmeal porridge with a little salt, it was so delicious.
There were still three eggs. The day before yesterday, the second aunt brought five of them, saying they were compensation. Of course Bai Baoshan took them, but he didn't eat them himself. However, Qiao Yun wanted to eat them.
After dinner, I rode my bike to take Qiao Yun to the door. We just happened to catch the school opening, what a coincidence.
After watching the girl being pulled by two little girls and skipping into the school, he rode away with peace of mind.
When I returned to the compound, I saw the three craftsmen who had worked there yesterday pulling a cart with two baskets of lime, a basket of cement, and some tiles and other things on it. They also brought their own ladder.
"Good morning, masters. I just dropped my sister off at school. Let's go in."
"Good morning, little boss. Let's finish the work early and rest early. Maybe we can find some work while pulling the cart."
"Masters, please stop calling me little boss. We don't use the term boss anymore. My name is Bai Baoshan. You can just call me Baoshan. Comrade Bai is also fine."
"Haha... let's call the little boss Comrade Bai, hehe."
"Okay, it's up to you guys, let's go in." Bai Baoshan carried the car and entered the yard.
It was past 7: and everyone who was supposed to go to work in the hospital had gone to work.
So it’s a lot quieter.
One of them offered me a cigarette, gestured to the other side, and went in first. He then took out the old wooden door from his home, and a sense of heaviness and history greeted him.
The door of my house is a bit difficult to install, otherwise I would have to ask a few craftsmen to replace it.
We can only let it serve as the gate of the compound for now.
"Master, there is a door in the room. Please help me carry it out. It will be used as the gate to the courtyard." Bai Baoshan went out of the house and called three masters.
These guys are indeed skilled workers. After taking one look at the door, they said it was a pity and that it was made of good material.
Bai Baoshan didn't care. No matter how good the material was, he had to install it because he had no other doors to use.
The three of them took down the door in a few moves, and each of them carried a part of it out of the house.
Bai Baoshan took out a bowl and there was water in the thermos, which he had boiled in the morning.
Behind people's backs, he took out tea bought by someone unknown from the space. This was considered good, as Bai Baoshan was reluctant to open his own tea.
Yesterday's table was still outside. I took the bowls out of the house, poured three bowls of water, put a pinch of tea leaves in each bowl, and covered the bowls with a grate to prevent dirt from flying in.
"Master, here is some tea for you. Come and drink if you are thirsty. You are welcome."
"Comrade Bai, don't worry, we won't be polite to you."
Three people, each with a shovel, dug the foundation of the wall and then tamped it again before it was considered completed.
Dig the foundation, then repair the roof, and then build the walls. This is the order we agreed on.
The mud dug out can be used to repair the roof above.
The three of them worked quickly and finished the digging in an hour at most.
A man carried a ladder into the house, looked at the roof, identified where the problem was, and marked it.
I dug it open very carefully, filled the bottom with the corn stalks I brought, and added a little white lime to the yellow mud with rice straw. Soon I had repaired an area.
Sure enough, people who know how to repair things can do it quickly.
Bai Baoshan looked at the house at the edge. This was the house, but he had no impression of seeing them come back very often. They would only come back once or twice a month.
This is where two brothers live. From what I remember, the younger brother seems to be the same age as Qiao Yun, also 14, and also in junior high school. The older brother seems to be working as a helper in some building.
As for family, Bai Baoshan had no impression of it.
When his elder brother returned to the yard, he smiled at everyone he met, but his younger brother seemed very mature.
Bai Baoshan scratched his head when he thought of this. He seemed to remember someone saying something like this two years ago. Someone said that Qiao Yun and this kid were a perfect match. They were the same age and had the same educational background. They would definitely have a bright future. They were also childhood sweethearts. In the fool's memory, he also considered it at first, but shook his head later.
As for the reason, Bai Baoshan didn't know.
The two brothers don’t know whether the house can be transferred to them. They will talk about it next time they meet.
In the morning, the three craftsmen completely repaired the roof.
Even the inside of the house was carefully painted with white lime. The craftsmanship of the three craftsmen was impeccable.
It was already noon when I finished the walls of the house.
At Bai Baoshan's insistence, they put some water on the surface, which was covered with a thick layer of braised meat and pork offal, and a spoonful of thick and fatty marinade. The taste was amazing.
There were only small bowls at home, and the big bowl was brought by Bai Baoshan from the space canteen.
Each one is as big as the bowls handed down from Qin Huairu’s family.
The three chefs allowed Bai Baoshan to eat a bowl and a half.
After finishing his meal, he wiped his mouth, took two sips of tea, picked up the bricks and started to build the wall without even thinking of taking a break.
Oh, I finally understand the benefits of this era.
If you treat others with sincerity, you will definitely receive sincerity in return, unless the other party is an ungrateful person, but there are very few such people.
The most common ones are those who are grateful and repay kindness, such as the three masters in front of us.
The wall was built quickly and well, not only creating a nice brick-patterned air vent, but also ensuring that outsiders could not see inside.
Even on the wall, there is a fake roof shape, which looks very beautiful.
After the door is installed, take a look and think, what is this, this is art.
Not only was the wall completed, but the remaining bricks were also used to build a stove in the corner.
It will be too hot in the future and you won’t be able to cook indoors. Similarly, two stoves can hold two pots.
This craftsmanship is amazing. Bai Baoshan just kept praising it.
The three masters almost ran away with their faces covered by Bai Baoshan's praise. They didn't understand art, they just knew it looked good this way, the wall and the door matched well, and the stove was easy to use and practical. These were skills passed down from their ancestors and did not deserve praise.
If he really had good skills, why would he choose to pull a cart for a living and force himself and others into such a state?
Before the three men left, the elderly master asked Bai Baoshan to buy some varnish and paint the door for maintenance, otherwise such fine material would be ruined by wind and rain. Then the master said cryptically that this was golden nanmu, which was something only the emperor could use in the past, and if possible, asked Bai Baoshan to try to change the color.
Bai Baoshan nodded very carefully to indicate that this was possible, asked for their address, and said that he would contact them if there was any work.
Bai Baoshan went out to see the three masters off. This job took him less than a day. Since they asked for no money, then it was free.
Bai Baoshan returned and looked around. He found that there was a huge difference between having a wall and not having one. He felt much safer instantly.
With the door closed, he rummaged around in the warehouse in the space and found varnish and dark red vermilion paint.
First apply a layer of clear varnish, wait for about ten minutes, then apply another layer, wait for another ten minutes, and when it is almost dry, apply vermilion lacquer.
When it is almost dry, apply a layer of varnish on it as a protective layer.
This color
Looking at my masterpiece, I can only describe it in one word: beautiful.
Now that the paint cans were open, I looked at the doors and windows and decided to paint them all.
The door didn't move and just remained open.
Just brush it towards the door and windows.
You know what, after painting it, it no longer feels shabby, but instead has a hint of life.
I looked at the sky and thought Qiao Yun should be finishing school soon. Forget it, I won’t go shopping.
He took out a piece of paper and the room was in turmoil.
Write down everything you need to buy.
