Chapter 117 Simple improvements to the thatched cottage
Of course, since the granddaughter said it, maybe it is true.
Nowadays, some of Song Yunuan's clothes were bought by herself, and some were made by Xia Guilan.
In the past few days, Song Yunuan has finished designing floral skirts, and also designed several summer clothes, including ones with plaid skirts and dresses.
With two sewing machines, the work is much faster.
Song Liang was preparing mud and wood to build the west wing.
Song Yunuan told them that they must not throw away the house and land here, and they could buy a separate house if they wanted to go to the city.
Except for those who study and work, whether the household registration is in the city or in the country will actually not be that important in a few years.
Song Liang and Mrs. Song secretly discussed moving to the city in the future. Mrs. Song really didn't want to separate from Song Yunuan.
But when Song Yunuan said this, my heart suddenly brightened.
Now Xiaonuan and Tingting at home are eating commercial food. If Abo is admitted, he will also eat commercial food.
From now on, her and the old man's household registrations will remain unchanged.
They say it’s hard to leave your homeland, and she was equally reluctant to leave.
Then, the house should be properly repaired.
The money in hand now can build a large red brick house.
But I can't get up.
This village is still very poor, let’s wait and see.
But he was ready to tidy up Xiaonuan's house.
The west wing room is not built with bricks and tiles, it is a mud house. In fact, mud can also keep warm.
It just looks solid without the red bricks.
But there is yellow mud land in the north of the village, so you can use local materials, saving a lot of materials and money.
Song Yunuan doesn't care what happens at home.
Anyway, everyone is smart.
But there were no shepherd's purses these days, so Lao Songtou went to pick up or collect old broken bricks, and he got a lot of them, so he really started to clean up the house where Xiao Nuan lived.
Song Yunuan felt energetic now, right, there's nothing to do now, let's clean up the small thatched cottage.
Although you will have to build a new house sooner or later, you still need to enjoy it for now.
In fact, although the mud walls are mottled, they are really clean.
There is a kind of person who can keep everything clean even if she lives in a cave.
Her mother Xia Guilan is like this.
Although Qin Siqi was dressed in shabby clothes, she was kept clean by Xia Guilan.
Song Yunuan walked around the house and wondered happily, how to make her bedroom comfortable and bright?
Song Liang gave his opinion.
Use newspapers to paste the walls and roof, pave the floor with red bricks, and plaster cement between the bricks.
Cement can be made at home.
The kang is newly built and the kang mats are newly made by Lao Songtou, so there is no need to change them.
Cabinets on the kang are also available.
So it's not troublesome at all to fix it.
She ran to Ji's hometown and got half a carriage of newspapers, and also got herself a large wardrobe from the scrap collection station.
As for the bedding, of course Qin Siqi's was not used. When she came back, they were replaced with Tingting's.
To lay the wall, you need to use paste. Mrs. Song was reluctant to use good noodles, but Song Yunuan was determined not to use insect-infested noodles, so she must have followed her in the end.
Not to mention, the red brick floor was covered with newspapers, and the room suddenly became brighter.
Song Yunuan thought about knitting floor mats, so she ran to talk to her grandfather.
Finally, Lao Songtou, who was very interested, began to think about weaving a reed mat for his granddaughter.
It is placed on the ground. It would be better if it could be spread throughout the house.
Xia Guilan said it was difficult to clean the house, so Mrs. Song thought it would be better to weave mats.
Song Yunuan told them that they had to take off their shoes when entering the house.
Otherwise, who can afford to deal with it?
Then Lao Songtou thought about it again, tried it a few times, and started to make it up.
In two days, I compiled it.
Old Suntou felt that the old Song family was too spoiled by Song Yunuan, but if they were willing, what could they say?
I watched him weave reed mats a few times, and he had to admit that the weaving was so good, so dense and strong, that he was a little tempted and planned to lay one for his granddaughter's house.
Chu Zizhou also came to see it.
Marveling at Lao Songtou's craftsmanship, he placed an order for him. He wanted it himself and planned to send it back to Beidu with Straw Hat for his grandfather to use.
I asked for a three-meter-by-five-meter one and gave Lao Songtou 30 yuan.
In fact, a kang mat only costs a few yuan.
Chu Zizhou insisted on giving it, but Lao Songtou had no choice but to accept it, but he also used corn leaves to weave a sugar bowl pen holder and ten pairs of insoles.
Chu Zizhou thanked Lao Songtou and thought the insoles were really good.
This corn leaf will not be organized for the time being. Erdaohe is busy enough now. Anyone who wants to do it will contact the buyer.
But that will have to wait.
By the way, he's really busy.
Straw hat knitting can be attributed to the end of the first stage.
He begins accepting checkouts and deliveries.
He unceremoniously lent Song Yunuan to help Accountant Li settle the accounts.
The warehouse has been packed up a long time ago, and shelves have been set up, just for temporary storage of straw hats.
Thirty acceptance inspectors were selected from the village, the kind who were given points for starting work.
It took three days to complete the inspection and acceptance of 9,800 hats and put them into the warehouse.
As long as you are qualified, pay immediately.
Those who are not qualified, sorry, can’t take it, just keep it and wear it yourself.
There are some who are unqualified, but they don't exceed a hundred. It can be said that they are all serious.
The originally ordered price was 80 cents each, but now it has been changed. The lady's price is 1 yuan and 20 cents, which is 40 cents more because it has a satin bow on it.
Some of the grass poles were ingeniously dyed brown with horse leaves from the field.
One circle of primary color and one circle of brown look more elegant and fashionable.
These were praised by Chu Zizhou.
Each one costs an additional ten cents.
Or say that the wisdom of the masses is infinite.
The person who did this was the new daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, and she was really skillful.
Song Yunuan was impressed when she saw it.
She and Chu Zizhou suggested that these items be sold separately and the prices should be clearly divided.
Before the accounts could be settled, the postman from the county post office came on a bicycle.
He took out a large kraft paper envelope for Chu Zizhou, and he couldn't tell what was inside. But you need to sign for it in person.
Chu Zizhou glanced at Song Yunuan, then looked at the address on the envelope calmly.
It's the Longhang base.
A letter from Gu Huaian?
Don't scare him. How could Gu Huaian write him a letter? The brigade headquarters has a phone number, not to mention his phone number. If anything happens, he can contact him directly.
After taking a look at Song Yunuan, who was busy and frowning, he quickly put the envelope into his desk.
By the time it's completely over, the sun has set.
Old Songtou and Song Liang earned 128 yuan, and some of their families even earned more than 300 yuan in more than half a month.
Chu Zizhou advanced the money himself.
The villagers holding the money were as excited as if they were celebrating the New Year.
Of course, Song Yunuan wasn't worried. This little thing was nothing. If it really couldn't be sold, several units offered it as a benefit, so they sold it.
However, these straw hats are indeed different from the original straw hats.
This straw hat is a decoration.
Even now, he is also the top among straw hats.
Song Yunuan suggested that the price should not be too low. It doesn't matter if the brigade headquarters makes a profit.
Reasonable prices are better to sell.
What Song Yunuan said makes sense.
Chu Zizhou nodded repeatedly and opened the envelope. There was no word inside, only a lot of tickets.
They were all military tickets, and they had everything. They were very complete. He also saw tickets for a refrigerator and a TV.
Chu Zizhou glanced at Song Yunuan who was packing up the notebook. It was obvious that Gu Huaian gave it to Song Yunuan.
But, how to give it?
