Chapter 273: East Cross Courtyard
The fruit trees in the orchard have bloomed, pink, yellow, and white, reflecting each other, exuding bursts of floral fragrance, attracting bees and butterflies, dancing, and lingering.
The lotus leaves in the lotus pond have surfaced, and they are full of greenery. The duck house not far away has also been completed, and the first ducklings are inhabited in it, and they quack every day.
Song Qingrong and Song Qingmo are squatting by the duck house, feeding the ducks.
Song Qingyuan is in the east cross courtyard, instructing the hired workers to place the furniture.
"Put this here" Song Qingyuan pointed to the wooden step and arranged the position, which was for a rest.
"Put the sofa here, put the coffee table here, put the desk here," Song Qingyuan waved his hand and called to the two hired workers carrying the bath bucket, "Follow me." ”
took the two of them to a small room next door, Song Qingyuan said, "The bathtub is placed here." ”
"Turn around, the outlet hole below is aligned here," Song Qingyuan pointed to the location of a similar drainage channel.
This bathroom was designed by herself.
The location of the tub is also very particular, there is a water inlet hole on it, so you don't have to fetch water yourself, as long as you pour water along the wooden pipe outside, you can flow directly into the tub.
There is a plug underneath the tub that allows water to flow down the drain below as soon as the plug is unscrewed.
There is no need to draw water, no need to pour water, and it is more convenient to take a bath.
in the living room.
Song Qingmo sat on the sofa and shook her strands, "Yuan'er, this big chair is really comfortable, soft, and it's full of cotton." ”
"Hmm" Song Qingyuan nodded, and she deliberately asked someone to hit the sofa.
It is said to be a sofa, but it is actually a long chair, wrapped in cotton and a layer of cloth. There is a lot of cotton wrapped, and when you sit on it, you will feel soft.
"When I make money, I'll get a big chair too." Song Qingmo looked at it enviously, "I still have to get a desk and a bookcase." ”
"I'm going to have a wooden tread too." Song Qingmo glanced at the decoration in Song Qingyuan's living room, and she liked everything very much.
But, everything needs silver.
"If only I had so much silver." Song Qingmo sighed. When can she be like Yuan'er, she has a lot of silver, and she can buy whatever she wants
The furniture in Song Qingyuan's living room and bedroom was all paid by Song Qingyuan to find someone to beat him, and it was no less than twenty taels of silver, which made Song Qingmo envious.
"Someday, you'll be able to earn it." Song Qingyuan patted Song Qingmo's head, took out the pastry, and brought it to the coffee table.
"Hmm," Song Qingmo nodded, "I'll catch twenty ducks when I turn around." ”
After thinking about it for a while, Song Qingmo said, "I have to ask my father to build me a few more duck houses." ”
When the duck house was first built, Song Chengli divided the duck house into several rooms, one for every 20 ducklings, according to Song Qingyuan's suggestion, so that it was easy to manage and not easy to get infectious diseases.
There are a total of four small rooms in the duck house, which can raise about 80 ducklings.
Song Qingmo wants to be covered, obviously not just to raise eighty.
Song Qingmo's first batch of ducklings has officially moved into the duck house, and the second batch has also been put into the Song family's courtyard.
Keep it in the yard for a while before you can officially move to the duck house.
Picking up the pastry and putting it in her mouth, Song Qingmo's eyes were aimed at the coffee table again, "This small table is fine, I will have it in the future." ”
"I don't know when I'll be able to live in a new house." Song Qingmo sighed lightly, anxious.
After the construction of the east cross courtyard, the hired workers began to build the main courtyard, and after the main courtyard was built, it was the turn to get the west cross courtyard, and the time was calculated, at least two months later.
Maybe three months later, Song Qingmo can't wait.
"Don't worry, you'll be able to live in a new house before the wheat harvest." Song Qingyuan estimated that before the wheat harvest, the Song family's mansion was almost officially completed.
It takes four or five months to build a house, which is really not fast.
East across the courtyard inside.
In front of Song Qingyuan's house, there is a long row of sieves with various flower petals on it.
Song Qingmo, Song Qingrong, each holding a small bag, put the dried petals into categories.
"Yuan'er, do you want us to help you grind it into powder," Song Qingmo asked. She knew that it was used to make Xiangyizi, that is, the soap in Song Qingyuan's mouth.
"No," Song Qingyuan shook his head, "Someone will help me do it." "The matter of making soap and soap has been handed over to the mother and daughter of the Bai family, and the petals are given to them, and they can grind them themselves.
"Oh" Song Qingmo nodded and didn't ask more. Song Qingyuan's soap is no longer made at home, this is something that the Song family knows.
She is curious, but she doesn't get to the bottom of it.
After lunch, the Song family went to the room.
"The house test is near, Da Lang, San Lang will go a few days in advance, get acquainted with it, you can see who will follow" Old Man Song sat on the kang.
He had come back to discuss the matter.
The government test is set at the end of April every year, and students from all over the country will go to the city several days in advance to deal with emergencies.
The Song family is no exception, and plans to let Da Lang and San Lang set off in advance.
"Dad, normally, I should go with me" Song Chengzhong frowned slightly, "But Dalang, San Lang has been gone for a month, and the private school is really inseparable from people"
Go on the road in advance, take four or five days on the road, and prepare for four or five days in Fucheng. The exam is taking place for a few days, waiting for the release of the list after the end of the exam, and coming back after the release of the list, it will take four or five days on the road.
In this way, there is no month, and there is absolutely no return.
"Dad, I'll follow" Song Chengyi stood up and patted his chest, "I have time, I'll follow Da Lang and San Lang." ”
"You" Old Man Song hesitated, with obvious distrust in his eyes.
"You honestly stay at home." Old Man Song shook his head, and Song Chengyi was even more uneasy to follow him.
"Third child, what are you going to do" Old Man Song asked Song Chengli's opinion.
Compared with Song Chengzhong, Song Chengli, the son of Mu Na, reassures him even more, at least Song Chengli will not produce a moth and affect the imperial examination of Da Lang and San Lang.
"This" Song Chengli looked at Song Chengyi and asked what Song Chengyi meant.
Song Chengyi spread his hands, a look of indifference, he didn't care if he went or not.
"That's okay, Dad, I'll follow Da Lang and San Lang." Song Chengli nodded.
"Then it's settled." Old Man Song patted the kang table lightly, "Ming'er, you can leave, today you all clean up your room, don't pull down whatever you take." ”
"I'll go to the county with me tomorrow, I've already found a car for you, and I often go to Fucheng to know the road."
"I'm talking to the second child of the Cui family, let him go with you, and there will be a lot of people to take care of." Old Man Song explained them one by one.
"Master, I have a few classmates, let's talk about going together" San Lang opened his mouth to discuss, "Master, see if we can partner with them, and the car money can also be shared together." ”
In this way, there is no need for the second uncle of the Cui family to follow, "There are many people, take care of each other, and there is a guarantee for Anshang."
"That's okay," Old Man Song nodded, "It's okay to go with your classmates, then you can hurry up and ask"
"Hmm" San Lang nodded, "I asked when I went to the school in the afternoon, if I want to go to Fucheng, I also want to say hello to Mr." ”
After San Lang and Old Man Song finished discussing, Da Lang sat on the side and looked at Old Man Song without saying a word.
After a while, he said slowly, "Master, the car we are looking for is a carriage."
