A Time Travel Effort in the 70s
Chapter 231 Looking at the house
As soon as Shen Jiaren entered the courtyard gate, she saw the screen wall, and after turning around, she saw the whole picture of the courtyard.
The yard is indeed not big, but the layout is okay, similar to the courtyard house in the manor, but a little small.
There are also small houses in the corner, but I don’t know what kind of houses they are.
Shen Jiaren looked around and found that the yard was indeed well maintained. Not only did it look clean and tidy, but it also had a sense of age and did not feel like a recent house.
In particular, there is a small open space behind the screen wall. Although it is not big, it seems to have been a place for growing vegetables.
Seeing Shen Jiaren observing the yard, Xiao Zhao stopped talking and took his hand off Shen Jiaren's arm so that she could concentrate on seeing if the house was suitable.
Auntie Tian came in and saw Shen Jiaren standing there motionless, looking around the yard, so she said to Shen Jiaren and Nurse Xiao Zhao, "My yard is not big, there are only three rooms.
It's said to be three rooms, but actually there are only two and a half.
The east wing room and the main house are together. The main house is used as a living room, and the east wing room is used as a bedroom or something like that.
The west room is a separate room.
There are east and west wing rooms on both sides. The west wing has a small house, and then there is a toilet and a bathing area. The east wing is used as a kitchen, a small warehouse, and a water room.
The well is placed in a small room for safety.
Otherwise, there is no introduction, what you see is all.
The land behind the screen wall in the courtyard was originally used to grow vegetables, but since we are in a hurry to leave, we have abandoned it.”
Aunt Tian said this while pointing to Shen Jiaren and walking towards the main room.
Auntie Tian, "Look, this is the main house and the east wing, the largest house in the courtyard. Originally, it was a living room, study and bedroom, but the study was wrinkled, so no one wanted it, so it was turned into a large bedroom.
The furniture inside, the bed, the wardrobe, the table and the chairs, take a look and see if you want them. If you do, I'll leave them to you.
If you don’t want it, I’ll let the junk collector take it away.”
Shen Jiaren followed Aunt Tian into the main room and the east wing and saw that the room was indeed quite large, especially the east wing, which was actually as big as the main room, but it was filled with all kinds of packages and furniture, and it was impossible to tell the original layout.
Shen Jiaren considered that the winter here was indeed difficult, so she asked, "Aunt Tian, how do we survive the winter in this house?"
Auntie Tian, "Oh, it's blocked by something, you can't see that there is a kang next to the window.
In winter, you can just burn firewood or coal.
There are two places for heating. One is in the kitchen of the east wing. If you change the flue, you can heat up the main room and the east wing.
There is another thing. There is a stove opening under the window of the east wing room. You can just put the firewood in it.
Or, if you think it's a waste, you can also make a small coal stove like us and connect a smoke pipe.
I have a small coal stove in the west room, you can take a look at it later."
Seeing that Shen Jiaren was still confused after she finished her explanation, Aunt Tian took her to look at the firewood burning hole outside the east ear room and the chimney hole of the west room.
After looking at the main house and the east and west rooms, he took Shen Jiaren to the east wing to see the kitchen, water room, and warehouse.
When Shen Jiaren followed to look, Aunt Tian said, "Our house is an old house, so the house used as a warehouse and the house used as a water room have a connection.
For example, if you go into the water room, you will find that in addition to the well, there is also a water tank built inside the house. This ensures that you don’t have to fetch water all the time, and you can use this water tank.
There used to be a water tank in this room, but when my relatives heard that I was leaving, they moved the water tank away. Otherwise, you can see that the placement of the water tank and water tank is also very particular.
The only thing left is this warehouse. If you look closely, you can see that our warehouse is just an empty house. It is used to store firewood and the like.
The small empty room in the west wing has a cellar. I actually put the winter food like pickled cabbage in this room.
The rest of the shower and toilet are just ordinary.
For the bath, you have to buy a bath tub yourself. As for the bath water, it is connected to the water tank in the east wing. There is a stove in the corner of the water room. After heating it up, you can use it directly.
There is also the so-called bathroom, which is the toilet we had at that time. However, my son is particular about this toilet. It is built with bricks and has a bucket inside for easy flushing.
In my opinion, it's just a lot of details.
We don't have this toilet here. It was because my daughter-in-law came back and was not used to using public toilets that we got this thing.
But you know what, this toilet is quite clean and comfortable after being used a lot.
You don't have to go outside to pour out the night incense early in the morning, nor do you have to rush to the toilet outside. And it is especially clean after flushing. If you clean it diligently and put some wormwood in the summer, there will be no mosquitoes.
It’s much better than a public toilet, but every once in a while, you have to find someone to clean out the pool outside.”
Shen Jiaren looked over according to Aunt Tian's introduction. It was the bathroom? It was okay, because there was no toilet. She could only simply see a pipe and a stove inside, and nothing else.
This is the only toilet that Shen Jiaren likes more.
The yard I rented in the village also had a toilet, but it was the kind of dry toilet in the village, which was a little better than the dry toilets in the village. The dry toilets in the village were just a pit and two slabs, while the toilet in the rented yard was a brick floor and then the toilet.
But, the pit at the back made Shen Jiaren look a little scary. She was afraid that she might fall into it accidentally, so she tried not to go to the toilet in the yard, but always went to the toilet inside the manor.
Even though she found something to block the pit of feces and urine, Shen Jiaren still didn't dare to go there.
So Shen Jiaren really didn't expect that the toilet in this yard involved a higher level.
When Shen Jiaren saw this toilet, she became a little crazy and excited.
After all, as a future person, there are two things Shen Jiaren cannot tolerate, one is taking a bath, and the other is the toilet.
When she first came to this place and saw the two-board toilets in the village, Shen Jiaren would rather suffocate to death outside than go to the toilet in the courtyard where no one was around.
He was not afraid that the two wooden boards would fall down due to their age and could not bear their weight, nor was he afraid that the insects in the pit would try to climb up one by one, nor was he afraid that the white thing between the yellow and white would keep wriggling.
What Shen Jiaren couldn't accept was that if there was too much feces and urine in the pit, you would be splashed with some indescribable things because of shitting, or because of the weather or the amount of things in the pit, you could also see the shape of the previous person's efforts.
Shen Jiaren couldn't accept it. So she would rather hold it in than have these troubles, not to mention that many aunts in the village said that several girls had drowned in the toilet of the brigade, so Shen Jiaren stayed away from it even more.
Aunt Tian saw the curious look on Shen Jiaren's face when she introduced the toilet, and then when she saw the toilet in detail, she looked at the toilet with sparkling eyes, as excited as if she was looking at meat. She knew that the house could be sold.
I don't say that, these young ladies in the city are just too delicate, and their requirements for toilets are so high. I don't know what they are thinking, can't people use public toilets? Other people can use it, why can't they?
They either disliked the crowds or the dirtiness. Or they felt embarrassed to be seen by others, or they felt they couldn't get off if others saw them.
According to her, they are just too idle. If the shit really reaches the asshole, can they still be so picky?
But thanks to my son's love for his daughter-in-law, otherwise this toilet would not have been installed, and it would not have attracted so many people. It is also much more convenient for me to use it, at least I don't have to compete with that damn woman for a toilet.
The more Aunt Tian thought about it, the more she felt that it was okay to have some trouble. Isn't it that the benefits are now apparent?
