Traveled to ancient times and became a cheap little dad

It is easier said than done.

It seems like I wanted to lose weight before, but I always wanted to eat secretly. Several times I couldn’t help myself, and then I started to regret it after eating.

Losing weight depends on willpower, but changing the original owner's inherent image cannot be accomplished by willpower alone.

Jiang Yun pressed her face directly onto the table, tapping the surface with her fingers. She muttered to herself, "Ahhhh, I don't want to think about it anymore. Change starts with the mind. Don't go into the city, don't meet each other, take a detour if we meet. Don't go into the city, don't meet each other, take a detour if we meet."

I kept repeating it to brainwash myself, and after repeating it dozens of times, I felt much better. The brainwashing was successful.

Looking at the dilapidated yard, three main rooms, and a kitchen and utility room, it was really poor. It was hot and full of mosquitoes in the summer, and cold hands and feet in the winter. The two of them decided to improve their living environment, at least to live more comfortably.

After the agreement was reached, Jiang Yun stayed at home to draw pictures and think about how to improve it. Jiang Rong went out to contact for materials for the decoration.

"Master, come quickly and see what good things I brought." Jiang Rong's voice rang out in the yard.

Whenever he needed to go into the city, he would ask the people from Yuelaiju to do it. When he bought something, the Yuelaiju staff would buy it and deliver it to the city gate and hand it over to Jiang Rong.

It's like an underground party.

"I'm coming." Jiang Yun got up quickly and saw a cart outside the door. On top were thick kraft paper, rice paper, and blank books. The rest were all wood and a somewhat old chair.

The paper was used to paste the windows, the blank books were used by Jiang Yun to write and draw to pass the time, the wood was scattered, and after asking, I found out that it was the leftovers of the wealthy families in the city. The old chair was also, it could be repaired and still be used, so that the family could have two chairs.

Jiang Yun quickly ran forward to help push the cart into the door, and complained to Jiang Rong for not asking her for help when he went out.

The two lived in a courtyard closest to the mountain in the western suburbs of the capital.

The yard was small and empty except for a peach tree and a well. Previously, the yard was overgrown with weeds, and it took Jiang Rong more than ten days to clean it up.

The house was even smaller than the one in Jiang's mansion. There were two living rooms, one for each of us. There was a living room and a kitchen and utility room. The toilet had collapsed, so we found some boards to build a temporary one.

Not only has the yard been unattended for years, the house is also dilapidated and is now barely clean enough for living.

The money from selling things before was barely enough to make ends meet, but fortunately, Yuelaiju’s business has picked up in the past few months. I finally saved some money.

Jiang Rong asked the people from Yuelaiju to help him run two errands and bought two cartloads of things.

After buying things, I have almost no money left, so I give up the idea of ​​hiring someone and just do it myself if I can.

There was plenty of time, so the two of them took their time and did a little bit every day. The key was to keep warm. Winters in the north were still very cold, and Jiang Rong had frostbite last winter.

The two of them huddled together to discuss how to renovate the house, and Jiang Yun made a carbon stick to change the plan. After an hour of discussion, the blueprints for the two bedrooms were completed.

Because of the limited materials, practicality was the priority. It took two days to re-scrub the floor and walls.

At first Jiang Rong was determined not to let Jiang Yun take action, and no matter how he tried to persuade her, it was useless.

It was not until Jiang Yun said that Jiang Rong was preventing himself from changing and affecting his ability to embrace a new future that Jiang Rong nodded in agreement.

I also realized that the young master really wanted to change himself, and it wasn't just talk.

Woohoo, the young master has grown up, Jiang Rong, who is also 17 years old, was moved.

Open the windows and doors for 3 days. Wait until the room is completely dry before proceeding to the next step.

During these three days, the two of them were busy, taking apart and washing the quilt, pillow, and cotton-padded clothes. They were directly put into the bathtub, and Jiang Yun stood in and stepped on them, soaking her feet until they turned white and wrinkled.

I spent 20 cents to ask the people in the village to fluff the cotton again.

I didn't know how to mend the clothes after washing, so I spent another 10 cents and found an old lady who sewed everything in half a day.

The tools found in the utility room were incomplete, so I borrowed a set from a carpenter in the village, re-hooped the window and pasted brown paper on it.

I nailed the door which was not very firm, and after trying it out I was quite satisfied.

Jiang Rong also built a kitchen shelf to place some bottles and jars and other daily necessities. He also used the leftovers of wooden boards to build a stool so that he could sit on it while making fire.

The shopkeeper in charge of Yuelaiju didn't like what Jiang Yun did, but for the sake of Jiang Yun's grandfather, he heard that Jiang Yun was renovating the yard and sent him a desk and some money.

Yuelaiju is not easy to maintain, and there are employee expenses. Jiang Yun can't ask for more money. The money she sent before has basically been spent.

By the time the scattered work was almost done, more than a month had passed. Recently, the two of them had set up beds in the main room and slept close together.

After breakfast, the two of them discussed how to make a bed. Practicality and warmth were the most important, and they finally decided to make a kang.

Although the weather is still hot, there is no need to queue up to get a kang and the price is negotiable.

First, he built a kang, and then rebuilt two stoves. He didn't want to throw away the original big pot, so he cleaned it inside and out and put it back on.

As for the floor and walls, we decided not to lay wooden flooring but tiles instead. This is much cheaper and the labor is also cheaper.

First, two layers of kraft paper were applied on the wall, and Jiang Yun scribbled with a pen, which was acceptable.

After more than ten days of hard work, the home's hard decoration was basically completed. The two of them also ended their lives as hall directors and returned to their rooms. Sleeping on the kang was a bit uncomfortable, so they bought two more mats to use as cushions, and only then could they fall asleep.

After nearly two months of transformation, Jiang Yun became a little darker, but his skin became much stronger.

Jiang Rong felt that the young master had really changed. Not only did he work the whole time, but he also kept everything simple to save money.

As she was busy with work and rest, Jiang Yun found that she seemed to have lost some weight.

"Hahahaha, God is helping me. Not only have I lost weight, I seem to be a little stronger." He said as he raised his arm and pressed the small bulging muscles on his arm.

Jiang Yun stood in the yard admiring the lines of his own muscles, showing them off with great pleasure.

Jiang Rong rolled his eyes, "Master, look at me."

As he spoke, he lifted up his sleeves, revealing arms that were obviously thicker than Jiang Yun's. He showed them off proudly and even gestured.

"Uh, why are you taller and stronger than me? Aaaaaaaa…" He shook Jiang Rong's arms hard, helpless and furious.
