The couple made a living in the 1950s.
Chapter 6 Building a House 2
Bai Ye leaned forward slightly, "Man, I want to find ten people to haul the goods."
When Ban Ye heard this, a smile appeared on his dark face. This man is quite polite.
"Can ten people carry all the goods in one trip?"
Bai Ye nodded and handed him the address of the abandoned yard.
"How do you charge me for transporting the goods to No. 20, Yandaixie Street?"
Ban Ye smiled and said, "I need to find nine more brothers. This job is not close, and the boss will give each of them 200 French francs."
Bai Ye thought about the weight of the cement and nodded, "I'll leave you the address. Go pick it up in half an hour. I'll be waiting for you there."
Twenty minutes later, Bai Ye and Lin Yu returned to the deserted yard.
The two of them looked around the yard again, inside and out, front and back, up and down, to make sure there was no one there.
Bai Ye returned to the house and with a wave of his hand, he placed enough cement to fill ten carts on the ground.
It didn't take ten people long to load the truck. It was only 11 o'clock in the morning when they returned to Yandaixie Street.
At the gate of the new home in the east courtyard, Lin Hanyu tugged at Bai Ye's clothes, asked him to bend down, and leaned close to his ear.
"Aye, there's no one in the front yard of the East Cross Courtyard. I don't know what's going on when I pass by here, but I always feel it's eerie."
Bai Ye didn't say anything and took her into the yard of their new home.
I saw the old men unloading cement in the yard busily.
What they didn't know was that the owner of the front yard of the east wing mentioned above was alone in the basement of his second courtyard at this time.
After seeing the men off, Bai Ye came to the area between the house and the back wall.
The three-meter-high courtyard wall protected him tightly.
He looked around to make sure no one could see him.
Then he took out the remaining building materials from the space and placed them on the open space.
At this moment, Master Lei was walking hurriedly into the alley with his thirty brothers who were working under him.
When they saw the oncoming cart convoy, they turned sideways but continued walking.
In the Bai family's courtyard, Master Lei took the deposit handed over by Bai Ye.
They organized the people to work and started to build the shed where they would live at night.
As it got dark, kerosene lamps were lit in the house.
Bai Ye relaxed for a rare moment.
He gently laid on Lin Manyu's belly, trying to see if he could hear the children's voices now.
"Have the babies been good today?"
He waited for more than ten minutes but still felt no response.
Only then did he reluctantly lie back on the bed.
Lin Hanyu has never changed the thin cloth curtains, and today it was the sunlight that woke her up.
She stretched and rolled around on the bed.
After eating, Bai Ye left boiled eggs and millet porridge for her.
Just stroll along the main courtyard to the east wing.
She could hear the workers talking from a distance, and when she entered the yard, she saw people demolishing the house.
When Bai Ye saw her coming, he quickly stepped forward, took her hand and walked out of the courtyard, "It's dusty here, don't go this way if you have nothing to do."
Lin Hanyu took the opportunity to hold his hand tightly, "I just came to take a look and see what you are doing."
Bai Ye sent her back to the main courtyard and followed her into the space.
In the space study, Lin Hanyu was carefully selecting fabrics to make clothes for her children.
These fabrics were leftovers from her company's vintage design competition in her previous life.
There are half a piece of pure white, dark blue, dark gray, black and apricot yellow pure cotton cloth.
Black, gray, apricot yellow, half a piece of woolen cloth, and ten pounds of cotton.
The days passed slowly, and Lin Manyu and Bai Ye had settled in Beijing for more than a month.
She gently stroked her belly. The last time she went to Dongtangzi Hutong to see Dr. Lin for a check-up, the doctor said there were three fetal sounds.
When Bai Ye entered the house, he saw his wife walking around the house holding her belly.
He washed his hands first, then warmed his hands on the coal stove before coming over and touching her belly.
"These kids grow up so fast. They've grown so much in just a few weeks."
Lin Manyu's eyes were as bright as autumn water under the kerosene lamp, which made Bai Ye's gaze burn.
"Baby, sometimes I wish time would go by faster."
Lin Manyu's light brown eyes lit up when he heard that.
Bai Ye took her hand and sat on the edge of the bed, the two of them sitting close to each other.
"The east wing of the new house has been completed today. Now there are only two houses left to be decorated. It will be almost all finished by the end of next month."
"When the time comes, we'll wait until November to turn on the heating for a month before moving in. After all, the heating material is from later times, and I'm afraid there's formaldehyde in it."
Lin Hanyu felt a little tired from sitting, so she climbed onto the bed and lay down.
"I made clothes for my babies last time, and then I didn't have any of that vintage fabric from my last life."
"We use the silk and satin left by the mothers in the space. The fabrics left by the mothers are mostly brocade and Xiangyun gauze."
"I used the few silks I had to make clothes and quilts for my children, and also made soft furnishings for my new home."
"In our new home, the walls are made of white lime powder with nothing else added, the furniture is made of pure red pine, and the floor is made of blue bricks fired in an old kiln."
"There's no formaldehyde or other bad stuff. The only thing you need to worry about is the heating material." Bai Ye lay beside her and held her hand.
Lin Manyu playfully tickled the palm of his hand.
"Yes, the curtains and soft furnishings at home are made of silk and satin left by our mothers. They are all hand-dyed and naturally dyed, so they are very safe."
On the bed, two people lay close together, enjoying a rare relaxing moment.
Bai Ye, "Let's stock up on some silk, old cloth, and cotton when we have time."
“Now everything in the silk shop is still hand-woven and naturally dyed.”
"In the 1960s, when factories started producing on assembly lines, they were all industrial dyes, and the chemical ingredients in them were definitely more than they are now."
Lin Yu hugged his arm and said, "Aye, we will sign the surrender document in ten days."
"I heard it's being held in the palace. Let's go to the streets to see the excitement. We can also go to the silk shop to buy some silk."
Bai Ye turned his head and looked at his wife. He couldn't help but kiss her little mouth, "Okay."
On October 1945, 10, before dawn, the streets and alleys of Beijing were already bustling with people's faces filled with smiles.
Today is the day when Xiao Ri surrenders to the Yuan Party, and the land of Jing City officially returns to the hands of us Chinese.
Although I couldn’t go to the palace in person to watch Xiao Ri’s surrender ceremony.
However, this did not affect everyone's good mood, and the streets were full of people.
Bai Ye supported Lin Hanyu and walked forward carefully avoiding her belly.
He looked closely and saw the little woman in front of him looking around trying to find the excitement.
His face was full of helplessness. This guy in his family just likes to join in the fun.
At night, Lin Haoyu lay listlessly on the bed to rest, and Bai Ye gently rubbed her calves.
"Hanhan, although Dr. Lin used to be the director of the obstetrics and gynecology department of Xiehe Hospital, her clinic can also perform cesarean sections."
"But we will try to have a natural birth if possible."
"The cesarean section of this era is different from the surgical methods of later generations. The cesarean section of this era is very harmful to the uterus."
