If you don't agree, do it! Roll up your sleeves, empty your property and go back to the country

Last night, after Bai Nuo finished cleaning up, she locked the doors and windows and returned to the space. The educated youth who had finished work in the front yard came back and made a fuss for a while, but Bai Nuo did not go out to watch the fun. She was tired after a day and just wanted to take a good bath, eat, and sleep. She didn't care about anything else.

The next morning, after having breakfast in the space, I went to the backyard, sorted out the dried reed stalks and reed leaves, sat on a small stool and began to weave straw mats and reed curtains.

Bai Nuo's hands are very fast, especially when it comes to weaving. He finished it in almost one morning. He wiped the straw mat clean with a wet towel, dried it in the sun for a while, and then spread it on the kang. Fortunately, Bai Nuo was strong and could lift the kang cabinet by himself, otherwise it would be difficult to spread the straw mat inside.

Three reed curtains were woven, and the edges were wrapped with large Northeastern floral cloth with a length of about 15 centimeters. A piece of lace cotton cloth was sewn on the edge. It is both beautiful and practical, and it has a special Northeastern rural style.

After sewing, one was hung on the wall beside the kang, so that you would not feel cold when sitting against the wall in winter. The other two long reed curtains were hung on the inside of the partition walls on both sides.

After everything was sorted out, he placed the porcelain vase basin he brought from Shanghai on the washbasin rack, and also took out two old-fashioned soap boxes, one for perfumed soap and the other for soap. The pink one looked earthy and fresh, so earthy that Bai Nuo's hands were shaking a little, but he managed to hold it back. He placed it carefully on the partition of the washbasin rack and hung a towel on it.

There was also a large water jar that she asked the coachman to bring back the day before yesterday and placed it next to the stove. She also specially made a round wooden lid and nailed a long wooden handle on it.

Another small water tank is used for pickling vegetables. Since it is not used for the time being, it is placed in the utility room. I have heard that there are not many vegetables in Northeast China in winter, so every household pickles vegetables to eat.

All the clothes and skirts she brought were put into the closet, and the suitcase she brought was directly lifted onto the closet to avoid taking up space. A three-layer shoe rack was also made next to the closet. She left a pair of rubber shoes and a pair of small floral cloth shoes with a single buckle outside, and the pair of small leather shoes that her eldest brother mailed to her were placed on the shoe rack.

In addition, the tools, raincoats and other items that the educated youth won in the gift pack were hung on the perforated board in the utility room.

The cloth, clothes and quilts that were not used temporarily were placed in the kang cabinet on one side, and the bicycle was pushed to the backyard and placed against the wall near the gate.

I took another look at the stove and found that it was almost done, so I put the coal stove, coal blocks, and kerosene in the utility room, placed the large wok on one of the stoves, and the small steamer on the other.

Seeing that there was still a lack of someone to boil water, Bai Nuo glanced at the No. 8 warehouse again and picked out an old-fashioned kettle from it.

When the stove was first built, a large area was left on the side against the wall, and a large area was extended towards the washbasin rack, which was specifically used to store cutting boards and dishes. A two-layer cupboard was also made underneath according to Bai Nuo's requirements. Because it had no doors, Bai Nuo hung a blue printed cloth curtain outside.

This curtain is not tied with a cloth strip at the top like a window curtain. Instead, it has a sewn edge and a long iron wire passed through it. Finally, the two ends of the iron wire are fixed on both sides of the stove cabinet.

Bai Nuo placed the kettle in the corner of the stove, and the chopping board and knife on the stove cabinet. He put the remaining rice, flour and coarse grains into ceramic jars he had found and sealed them with wooden corks to prevent them from getting damp, and then placed them all in the stove cabinet.

Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and other seasonings were placed next to the stove. Fortunately, there were many small black ceramic jars in her space that could be used to store these seasonings. The black ceramic jars were not big, so if others asked about them, she could say that she brought them from Shanghai by stuffing them into the bedding.

Also, when she was looking for a kettle just now, she saw an extra-large old-fashioned white-glazed teapot with a magpie on a plum blossom printed on it, which she thought was very beautiful.

Bai Nuo took out the big teapot and held it up to look at it carefully. The teapot was as big as her face, and although it was barrel-shaped, it had a square feel no matter how you looked at it. It was really full of the characteristics of the times.

Bai Nuo placed the large white teapot and a matching white-glazed ceramic cup with a bag lid on the long wooden table under the front window to dry boiled water for drinking.

Finally, she swept the entire place with a wet towel, and her little home was completely tidy.

I glanced at the time and it was just past one in the afternoon. I had just hurriedly eaten a big bun and drank a cup of malted milk. I wasn't hungry at the moment, so I picked up two wooden buckets and planned to go to the front yard to fetch water to fill the water tank.

"Host, I think you should start your online cooking class this afternoon."

Bai Nuo paused as he was walking out and pursed his lips.

She actually had no objection to cooking for herself, but her scalp went numb when she thought of the dark scrambled eggs from the night before.

If she is poisoned by something she made and sent to the hospital, will she become the laughing stock of the entire Seventh Water Brigade?

"Nono!"

"Hey, here we come."

Bai Nuo heard Sun Yuxi's voice and turned around to pull the curtain behind her. She never opened the front curtain, but the other curtains were open. It was not appropriate to let others see that her room was fully furnished at this time.

After all, it seems impossible for a normal person to make so much furniture in a day and a half without advanced machinery.

There isn't much furniture in the entrance kitchen, so it doesn't matter if it's seen.

Bai Nuo put the bucket in his hand by the door, walked quickly to the window and opened the curtains, and finally took a few quick steps to open the door.

She decided to find some cellophane to cover the front window glass. She would just use blurry cellophane to ensure that light could pass through but people could not. This thing had been around for a long time, so she wasn't afraid of being checked.

"Sister Yuxi!"

"How's the cleaning going? Do you need help?" Sun Yuxi didn't go in. He stood at the door and took a look. The first thing he saw was the light purple floral curtain that was tightly covered. There was only a distance of six or seven centimeters from the ground. There was no need to worry about it being dragged on the ground and getting dirty or wet, and it could still ensure that it was tightly covered.

"This curtain is hung well. It turns the single room into a double room." Sun Yuxi looked at the curtain behind Bai Nuo with approval.

How could she not have thought of it? The interior design of this small house came out in an instant.

Bai Nuo smiled and turned sideways: "This house is this big. The front and back doors open directly to the backyard. Although my house is in a corner and not very popular, after all, men and women live in the same courtyard, so privacy is still important. My relatives happened to bring me a lot of fabric, so I picked out a piece and sewed a curtain to hang up."

"This is a good idea, and the layout of your cottage is so well designed." Sun Yuxi stood at the door, looking at the separate front room and kitchen. Everything inside was planned neatly. She wanted to go back and redecorate her cottage.

"Did you make these tables yourself?"

Chao Xianhua and Qin Xuehua, who had just returned from lunch break, heard the noise and came over. They stood at the door and looked at the entrance and kitchen that were separated, and they also became envious.

"Well, I bought a lot of wood at the brigade headquarters and borrowed a set of tools. I've been working on these things for the past two days and I almost broke my hands. But I did save a lot of money."

"That's true!" Sun Yuxi nodded in agreement. "Although the furniture our brigade buys doesn't require tickets and isn't expensive, it's still far inferior to wooden furniture. With your skills, it's more cost-effective to carve it yourself."

After Sun Yuxi finished speaking, he saw the ceiling covered with thin bamboo poles and was shocked again: "Are these all bamboo?"

"Well, it's because I'm afraid of dust falling off. If I stick up a layer of old newspapers, I'm worried that it won't be strong enough. If one piece falls off, I have to climb up and stick it again. So I just spread a layer of thin bamboo poles. This way, I don't have to worry about getting dust all over my face when I eat or sleep.

Although mud brick houses are cleaner than adobe houses, dust is inevitable. After all, they are not renovated with a layer of white putty like in the city.

"Indeed, this is a good idea. It's clean and beautiful." Sun Yuxi was also tempted, but it was obviously a technical job, so she thought about it and gave up. She was embarrassed to trouble Bai Nuo. Laying such a layer looked simple, but it would definitely be troublesome and tiring.

"Bai Zhiqing can also break furniture?" Qin Xuehua looked at Bai Nuo in shock. She then glanced at the long table and small bench in the entrance hall, the wall cabinets on the stove wall, and the wooden lid on the water tank. She said in disbelief, "You broke all of this?"

"Yeah!" Bai Nuo nodded with a smile. She had already thought of an excuse, so she spoke it without any pressure.

"I learned carpentry from my grandfather when I was young. My skills are not very good, but I am strong and can chop wood. I don't mind the things I make myself. If I take them out to exchange for something else, they won't be good enough. But I can still use them myself. If they break, I can fix them myself and save some money."

Bai Nuo finished speaking, pursing her lips and smiling slightly, looking embarrassed. Inside, she was thinking something rather sinister: When you're out in the world, you give yourself an identity. No one here knows her from her past, and the information she had with the Youth Educated Office was tampered with by her grandmother, so she wasn't afraid of being investigated. Even if no one in her godfather's Bai family had ever been a carpenter, it didn't matter. No one stipulated that anyone with carpentry skills had to become one.

As for her own grandfather!

She didn't even know who her biological father was, so how could she care about a cheap grandfather who didn't know how to live or die? What's wrong with her giving him a carpenter's identity? If he had the guts, he could show up and beat her up.

If a person can only have one biological grandfather, she could give her adopted grandfather eight or ten identities, ensuring that none of the old workhorses in the team are as capable as him, and also save her from having to think of an identity on the spot when she wants to find someone to take the blame for something.

At the same time, an old man who was sitting under the shade of a tree in the No. 1 compound of the Kyoto Military District and playing chess with his old friend sneezed inexplicably.

The old man frowned slightly, raised his hand and rubbed his nose, his expression full of disgust. He always felt that it was some brat at home who was talking behind his back. He would call those little bastards back one by one and scold them to vent his anger.

They are all useless and money-losing!

He is old now and can't stand any anger. After all, he needs to let it out.

The old fellow opposite him propped up the small square table that the old man had pushed crookedly and said, "Please be gentle on this table. The legs have become loose from the kick you gave them a few days ago. Why don't you fix it quickly?"

The old man rolled his eyes in annoyance. "How can I fix this thing? It's okay. I'll ask my eldest brother to come back and fix it tonight. If he can't fix it, he'll get me a new one. Anyway, I kicked the table because he was mad at me, so he should pay for it."

This money-losing guy who can't even give birth to a granddaughter, if he doesn't compensate, who will?

Very good, it really is the same unreasonable nature as that little girl.

In the distant Liao Province, Sun Yuxi and the other two visited the entrance and kitchen of Bai Nuo's house, as well as the utility room next to it, and then walked out.

In fact, what she was most curious about was the window eaves outside the window, but no one had the courage to ask Bai Nuo to help them, mainly because they were so shameless and would not be so ignorant.

The three of them were people who knew their limits, and no one suggested that Bai Nuo open the partition curtain to look into the inner room. At the same time, they also guessed that the room had not been cleaned up yet.

"By the way, how are your stove and kang drying? I think they should be almost done after almost three days. I'm still debating whether to light a fire tonight and try it out."

"I think it should be about time. The weather is dry now. It was around this time when I first came here. The stove will be ready in two days. The area of ​​the kang is not very large, so it should be about time." Qin Xuehua was walking in front of the three people. She turned her head and said something when she heard this.

In the past two days, Sun Yuxi and Qin Xuehua, who lives next door, have become more familiar with each other. This is mainly because Qin Xuehua is more familiar with Sun Yuxi. After all, Sun Yuxi knew this old educated youth in his previous life, but other people didn't know it.

"I think it's almost done." Bai Nuo nodded, holding a bucket in one hand, and then said, "If you're worried, you can start the fire tomorrow night. It's safer that way. It won't be any different later. If it's not completely dry, it will crack easily when it's burned, and it will be more troublesome to repair it later."

She planned to take an online cooking class in the space tonight, at least to learn the entry-level skills, so she didn't plan to cook tonight, but she had already planned to remove the mat on the floor and sleep on the kang.

"That's right. We all have coal stoves anyway. Using it for another day won't cause any harm. At most, we'll just waste a few pieces of coal." Sun Yuxi nodded.

Sun Yuxi has been living with Chao Xianhua these two days. They use a coal stove borrowed from the brigade headquarters. The food is okay, but it's a bit costly to burn coal.

"Nono, do you have anything to do this afternoon? Do you want to go up the mountain to collect firewood?" Picture 1 is a thin bamboo ceiling, and Picture 2 is a reed curtain.
