Chapter 5 Renovation Plan
The old house is very old.
It has been at least 30 years since He Yuan remembered.
In addition, over the years, relatives in my hometown have entered the city, and only during the New Year's holidays, will I go back to the old house, clean the house, go to the grave, and have a meal. The rest of the time, the old house is empty.
So.
And rightfully so.
The old house has fallen into disrepair.
Looking at the water droplets above his head, He Yuan sighed and moved to the side.
During the time he returned to his old house, what he was most afraid of was rain. In addition to the roof tiles leaking, there was also a leak of wind in the room, and when it rained, it blew hula hula.
And the old house is not equipped with air conditioning, the countryside is humid and heavy, and when I wake up in the morning, the whole quilt is frozen like a popsicle, and I am uncomfortable.
The raindrops "ticked" and fell on the concrete floor, quickly soaking the ground. He Yuan looked around the house and found a plastic basin, where the rain dripped down, and heard the sound of the rain hitting the basin, which was a little annoying.
"Wait, quilt!"
He Yuan patted his head and hurriedly went upstairs.
When I pushed the door in, I saw that the sheets on the bed had been soaked with rainwater.
"It's over, it's time to dry the quilt again. He Yuan covered his face, this was the third time he had dried the quilt this month.
He Yuan found adhesive tape, climbed into bed, and blocked the leaking place. However, he didn't have much confidence, and he did it the last time, but the second time it rained, the tape was soaked in the rain and fell off.
"It's time to renovate this house. He Yuan squatted in the corner, looking at the room leaking rain, with a sad face.
If you want to renovate, you need money, but He Yuan's savings are all used to buy an old house, and there are thousands of dollars left on him, where is the money to renovate the house.
Just when He Yuan was frowning, there was a sudden "click", and He Yuan's complexion changed greatly. As soon as I ran out of the house, I saw a wire that had been connected from the outside, somehow disconnected, half of it was falling to the ground, half of it was dancing in mid-air, and the broken place was still flashing with blue arcs.
The circuit of the old house is not good, He Yuan has known it for a long time.
In this kind of rural house a few decades ago, the wiring was open, and the wires were exposed, which was not only inconvenient, but also particularly ugly.
Even the electric light is a wire hanging down, and the bulb is attached to it, and then a switch is made at the interface, and a rope is pulled, and the rope is tied to the entrance door, and when the light is to be turned on and off, the rope is pulled.
But He Yuan didn't expect that this line had aged like this, and if it suddenly broke when he slept at night, the wire hit his body......
Thinking of this, He Yuan suddenly shuddered.
To renovate, it must be renovated!
He Yuan gritted his teeth and immediately made this decision.
Isn't this just a million, anyway, the money in the bank will not generate income, it is better to take it out yourself and renovate the old house first. In the future, if you want to earn money, you just have to pay it back.
After making this decision, He Yuan took out his paper and pen, found a clean corner, and began to record.
First of all, the lines in the house need to be revisited.
The wires in the old house are almost all exposed open wires, which need to be grooved, or made pipes, and the lines are buried in them.
Secondly, the roof tiles are also a little damaged, and when it rains, the rainwater flows in through the cracks, and the room is damp and damp.
After that, the walls were a little cracked and needed to be painted. In many places, the skin of the walls has fallen off, revealing the gray wall tiles inside. The windows of the house are too small for sunlight to let in, and even in the daytime, it looks so dark that you can barely see anything without the lights.
Speaking of the room, He Yuan supported his chin with a pen and thought about it carefully.
He had always felt that there were too many rooms in the old mansion.
Downstairs there is a living room with a utility room behind the living room and a suite on either side. In the next room, there is a kitchen, a toilet and pigsty (in the old countryside, the pigsty is usually repaired with the toilet), two utility rooms, and a bathroom.
In addition to this, on the second floor of the house, there are three suites, all of which add up to a total of seventeen rooms.
When the house was first built, it was thought that three generations would live together, so there were so many rooms apart. Five of the rooms are suites, and three are used as wedding rooms.
The suites here only have a bedroom and a living room, and the rooms on the second floor have their own balconies, but there is no private bathroom, which is different from the suites in the hotel.
However, when everyone moved to the county seat, the houses of the old mansion were naturally empty. For He Yuan, seventeen rooms are too many, and the rooms are very small and the lighting is poor, so it is very uncomfortable to live in.
If you want to renovate, just open up all five suites, remove the living room, and isolate the bathroom.
Then fill in the pigsty and make a fitness room, leaving one of the three utility rooms, and the other two are opened up to make a study.
The more He Yuan thought about it, the clearer the thoughts in his mind became.
By the time he stopped, the notebook was full of several pages.
"If it is renovated according to this requirement, isn't it a small villa?" He Yuan sorted out the needs and came to this conclusion.
The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes.
He had long wanted a courtyard, a courtyard house in the style of the Hui school.
Some places are modified to bring a bit of Japanese style, for example, there is a gravel yard, and there is a startled deer with a bamboo tube in the yard, and after the water drops all over the bamboo tube, it will "snap" and hit the stone slab.
If it rains, He Yuan can move out of the small table, sit in the corridor in front of the door, take a book, make a pot of tea, and watch the light rain outside the window drip on the bluestone slab along the eaves.
If you want to do that, it doesn't seem impossible.
The original old mansion is a bit like the courtyard of the Hui school, but it is not so exquisitely repaired. As long as you pay attention to the materials used when renovating, maintain the overall style, and finally do some transformation in some local places, it will be.
It took two hours for He Yuan to roughly sort out his thoughts, and the rain stopped.
He Yuan took out the computer and turned on the hotspot on his mobile phone and connected it.
The network signal in the countryside is not very good, and the traffic speed is not as fast as He Yuan, and since the traffic rectification, He Yuan has a lot left every month, and it happens to be used.
First, I recorded everything in the notebook on the computer, and organized a table according to my needs. Then follow the form, search for pictures on the Internet, download them, and save them as a document.
He Yuan has paid much attention to decoration things before, and he has saved a lot of decoration pictures on Weibo, which has not been used for three years.
Immediately afterwards, He Yuan ran up and down again, took photos of each room, edited them, and stored them in a document.
After tossing for a while, Finally, He Yuan finalized the plan.
As soon as I saved the information, I suddenly made a "gurgling" sound in my stomach.
When I picked up my phone, it was already two o'clock.
He Yuan rubbed his sour eyes and stretched.
Leaning back in his chair, he lit a cigarette, took a puff, and turned on his phone.
Flipping through WeChat and finding a number, He Yuan directly sent a message over: "Senior sister, are you there?" ”
"In. In less than five minutes, a message came back from WeChat.
"I have an old house in the countryside here, which needs to be renovated, you can see if you can do it. He Yuan said, and sent the prepared document over.
There was no speech over there.
Ten minutes later, a message was replied.
"Looking at your information, you should be able to do it, but I still need to go to the field to see the specifics. Where are you, send me a spot. ”
He Yuan sent the address.
"Okay, you wait, I'll be over in a moment. Senior sister said.
He Yuan just wanted to say that he could choose a suitable time, but he saw this message from his senior sister, so he had to delete the information he had just edited.
Senior sister's speed was very fast, and half an hour later, she sent a WeChat message.
"I'm here, where is your house. ”
He Yuan went out and saw a Ford car parked at the intersection.
The window opened, and a woman was looking around the window.
He Yuan waved his hand, walked over and said, "The alley is too narrow, it's easy to rub into the car, let's go in." ”
The woman nodded, got out of the car, and closed the door casually.
He Yuan saw that she was wearing a white t-shirt, a denim vest on her upper body, and a pair of tight black leather pants on her lower body, outlining a round buttocks.
A pair of high-heeled sandals on his feet, the height of about 1.6 meters sets off a very tall one. On his palm-sized face, he was wearing delicate light makeup, and the lipstick on his lips was a little bright, which attracted He Yuan's attention.
He Yuan stared at the red lips and looked away: "Senior sister, you are still so beautiful." ”
Senior sister is in her early thirties, with a mature charm on her body, less than 1.6 meters tall, and her figure is very good and petite.
Hearing He Yuan's words, she smiled and patted He Yuan's shoulder: "Your little mouth is so sweet, do you often lie to little girls?"
The woman in front of him was met by He Yuan when he was learning to drive, and she was in the building materials business. At that time, He Yuan was still very shy, the senior sister had become a wife, and she gave birth to a daughter, and her favorite thing to do was to tease He Yuan, a little boy.
"I think it's just that when I'm old, no one wants it, and now little girls like little fresh meat. He Yuan said with a smile.
"You're old and look like a high school student. By the way, I remember that you didn't work in Beijing, why did you suddenly come back. Senior Sister followed behind He Yuan and asked.
"I was tired of staying, so I came back. Well, this is the room. He Yuan took his senior sister through an alley of about ten meters, came to his house, and pointed to the old mansion in front of him.
Senior sister looked around the old house, touched her chin, and said, "Your house is a bit big, are you sure you want to renovate it?" With the money for this renovation, you can go to the county seat and buy a new set. ”
"It's more comfortable to live in the countryside, but it's too noisy in the city. He Yuandao.
When the senior sister entered the house, she first raised her hand and touched the old wooden door, stayed in front of the molting wall for a while, and then walked around the room.
"Your house is so poorly maintained, if it weren't for the good use of wood, it could have been directly demolished now. Senior sister said.
"Can you do it. He Yuan asked.
"I looked at your design, which is mainly to rebuild the circuit, open up the house, and renovate it as a whole. There is no need to paste tiles, no need to make ceilings, and the amount of work is much less. Senior sister said.
"How long will it take?"
"If you follow the general villa, the construction period is the area multiplied by 0.3, but your project is simple, if you are in a hurry, you can hurry, and it can be completed in a month and a half. Senior sister said.
"A month and a half, that's fine. He Yuan nodded, and his stomach suddenly "gurgled".
Looking up and seeing his senior sister looking at him, He Yuan said, "I was a little busy just now and forgot to eat, why don't you have a meal together?"
