Chapter 16: Hidden
Some things are simple to think about, but the operation is really time-consuming, Bian Rui originally wanted to spend money to find someone to open the material, but it was too expensive to find a few companies, or people didn't want to help Bian Rui, and they couldn't look down on Bian Rui's small money.
In the end, Bian Rui had to get a material to work, pay for his own materials, and exchange others for processing for himself, so Bian Rui had to temporarily rent a place in the suburbs to put wood to cover his ears and eyes.
Originally planned to go home on Tuesday, Wednesday at the latest, who knew that it would be the weekend when he stayed in the restaurant, and the father and daughter got along with each other for two days, and after going to a certain Ni who killed a thousand knives, Bian Rui tossed in Mingzhu for two more days, and then he opened the materials he needed, and in order to prevent it from being enough, Bian Rui had to put a margin of ten percent.
The materials are ready, and the glass ordered by Bian Rui has actually arrived, which saves Bian Rui a trip.
Driving home, when he arrived near the village, Bian Rui stuffed the material into a refrigerated truck, and waited for sunset before returning to the village.
"Why did you stay in Pearl for so long?"
Bian Rui's grandfather was about to go out, and when he pushed open the door and saw his grandson getting out of the car, he opened his mouth and asked.
Bian Rui jumped down from the car: "Hey, don't mention it, it's not easy to buy wood now, and I found the right price and quality after walking around, this is still the first car, and there are still three cars to be transported later."
When Bian Rui's grandfather heard this, he immediately said, "Let's go to the courtyard for dinner."
Bian Rui was about to enter the hospital, when he suddenly heard his grandfather say: "No, this car can't be parked here, it's inconvenient for people to walk back and forth on the road, so park the car in the drying field."
Hearing his grandfather's words, Bian Rui remembered that his car was not parked in a location, although he could pass a walk-behind tractor, but he didn't do it like that, he couldn't do things by his own convenience, he had to take into account others, so he got into the car again, drove the car to the drying field, and then went home for dinner.
After eating, Bian Rui was about to unload the car, and Bian Rui's grandfather and father naturally wanted to give Bian Rui a hand.
Three generations of grandparents went out, met the villagers and said hello, the number of unloading people slowly increased by three people, and when it came to the drying field, the helpers were more than ten people.
At this time, the strength of the clan was revealed, and everyone was willing to reach out if there was anything in the family. Someone pulled the wire from home to hang the lamp, some people began to discuss how to do this job to be fast and labor-saving, less than ten minutes, the original black drying field was lit up, several large wattage energy-saving lamps were picked up, the whole drying field was bright. No one cares about this is the work of Bian Rui's family, why do they have to use their own electric lights to help here.
Although there was not much strong labor, but there was a lot of strength in people, and in less than half an hour, a cart full of material was unloaded to the ground and neatly stacked on the ground.
"Wow, how much money did you kid cost, I see that these materials are all first-class, this is an old elm, this one alone is worth a lot of money," said the sixth uncle, glancing at the materials under his feet.
"You want me to give you one, I picked up the leak of this material, it just so happens that a furniture yard can't do it, and the one I bought here is two percent faster than the bottom of the market price......," Bian Rui said.
"Wait until you're done with your work, if you have some leftover, you can leave me some and see if I can make a bed" Uncle Liubo really likes this material, and he is not polite when he hears his nephew say this.
Bian Rui smiled: "Okay!"
There will definitely be more materials, and this bed of the sixth uncle will definitely be able to be completed.
The material has come down, and everyone has found a plastic sheet to cover it, so that it will not rain or dew to wet such a good material.
After unloading the car, Bian Rui went home to sleep, got up early the next morning, and continued to 'pull the material', while the grandfather and father at home began to pull the unloaded material to the wing room of the old mansion and put it up.
Two or three days passed after this back and forth, and with the help of the villagers, Bian Rui got the materials and some of the machines he bought back to the old house. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one, Bian Rui took out all the materials in his space and occupied almost half of the side room.
Everything is ready, Bian Rui and his grandfather arrived at the old house early in the morning to start working, as for Bian Rui's grandfather, he has to take care of his sheep, so the old man can't come over to help during the day.
When they arrived at the old mansion, the two of them entered the courtyard, and Bian Rui asked, "Dad, where do you say we should repair first?"
If Bian Rui wants to really be the master of such a big thing, according to the habits and traditions of the village, he has to wait for Bian Rui to be his father or grandfather.
This is definitely not used to many children in the city now, but this is a normal thing for Bianjia Village and several nearby villages, unless the elders can't reach it.
"Of course, it starts with the main house, it's all small work, and you don't need to move the pillars to fix the seams, so let's start with the south wall," Bian Rui's father said.
"I'm going to replace the floor-to-ceiling glass on the south wall, and the windows and everything are going to be removed, and then I pushed the half-human wall ......," Bian Rui said about his thoughts.
Bian Rui's father is not feudal, and when he heard his son say this, he said: "Then remove the window first, it just so happens that a window has been lost on the side of the ancestral hall, and it can be repaired by removing it here and there."
When Bian Rui heard this, he said directly: "Okay!"
Only then did I remember that the window of the ancestral hall was secretly unloaded by his 'good' seventeenth brother and sold for money.
So the two men rolled up their sleeves and began to work, and were about to remove the window, when suddenly they heard a voice from the yard.
"What are you doing here?"
Bian Rui and the two turned their heads and saw the sixth uncle, the ninth uncle, and the twelfth uncle, taking several of Bian Rui's old cousins into the courtyard. Not only did people come, but the juniors of the families behind them also grabbed the small carpentry boxes of each family, and they knew at a glance that they were prepared.
"The child is going to replace the south wall with floor-to-ceiling glass and prepare to remove the window," Bian's father said.
Sixth Uncle smiled when he heard this: "It seems that we came just in time!"
When Bian Rui's father heard this, he immediately said: "It's all light work, the sixth brother, the ninth brother, and the twelfth brother are all busy with your work." You don't have to do any work in the fields!"
"What's the work in the field now? It's also a coincidence, if it's a little later, when it's time to harvest peanuts and rice, we really don't have the effort to come and help."
Uncle Liubo rolled up his sleeves as he spoke.
As soon as he said this, Bian Rui's father couldn't say anything, so everyone did it together. Seven or eight were divided into two groups, three or four people dismantled a door, two people held it, and the two of them used tools to first remove the wooden pin on the window, and then used a wooden hammer to knock down the whole large window little by little.
It was a simple job, but it was time-consuming, and everyone was busy for more than two hours before the four windows in front of the main house were removed.
Relatively speaking, the green bricks below are much simpler, just pick up the hammer and knock it directly.
"It's still the material used in the old mansion before, see it, this window is the same as the material of the ancestral hall, all of it is old Nanmu, and it's hard to find it now" Uncle Twelve stretched out his hand and knocked on the removed window and said.
The lintels on the windows of the old house are three-crossed, six-style lintels, and the holes are small and very dense.
Bian Rui felt that although this thing was beautiful and transparent, it was dark in the room as soon as the sky was a little dark, so the first thing to change was this thing. Otherwise, Bian Rui would have gone crazy living in such a dark house for many years.
Bian Rui smiled when he heard this: "Just now my father said that he should send it to the ancestral hall."
Hearing Bian Rui say this, Uncle Twelve snorted and said with a smile: "When I mention this, I think of the face of the fourth brother, and when I saw that the window of the ancestral hall was replaced by the little rabbit cub of the seventeenth, it was red like a monkey'......s buttocks."
"Old Twelve, am I recruiting you?"
At this time, the voice of the fourth uncle sounded.
The smile on Uncle Twelve's face froze directly on his face, and he said curtly: "Fourth brother, I'm talking about playing."
It's not good for the fourth uncle to be angry at his cousin, because this was done by his own rabbit cub, and he can't let people not talk about it.
"Four Uncles"
Bian Rui and his cousins all greeted the fourth uncle.
"Well, what do you want me to help with?" the fourth uncle asked Bian Rui's father in the last sentence.
"Fourth brother, now that there are enough people, are you busy with you, can you still toss the whole village over this little work?" Bian Rui's father didn't know what to say.
"It's okay to come over and help, who will come over if there's something to do!" said the fourth uncle, and began to look for work on his own.
In this way, uncles and brothers came to help from time to time, and on the first day, Bian Rui's new house renovation progress far exceeded the plan. Bian Rui had to re-contact the underfloor heating supplier and ask them to advance the installation date of the underfloor heating, otherwise his house would be renovated.
Although the uncles and brothers are not professional carpenters and masons, the old mansion is not the Forbidden City, and with the craftsmanship from the renovation of the ancestral hall two or three years ago, the progress of the main house is several levels faster than Bian Rui's original plan.
Now there are no less than a dozen people in the old house every day, and several machines are ringing non-stop, and the elders with good skills are responsible for the delicate work, and the younger generations are making a lot of efforts.
A week later, the workers who installed underfloor heating for Bian Rui arrived.
Before the people arrived at the door, Bian Rui was already standing at the door to greet him, and saw a small truck stopped at the door, two people came out of the car, and four or five people jumped out of the back compartment.
"Mr. Zhao, hello, hello".
Bian Rui looked at the eldest of them and greeted him.
He was about fifty years old, and his hair was already Mediterranean, and the few hair that was left were white. All the people who jumped out of the car were in a piece of overalls, and only one of them was wearing regular clothes, and Bian Rui naturally thought that this was the head of these workers.
Who knew that this man waved his hand, pointed to a young man in his early thirties not far away, and said, "This is."
Bian Rui couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard this, but he didn't bother much, turned his head and shook Zhao Gong's hand.
When the people arrived, Bian Rui took Zhao Gong into the courtyard and let them take a look at the scene.
There's nothing to say, Bian Rui has already sent them the picture here, and the photos have been taken, so there is no need to adjust the pipe more, as long as it doesn't go down the column, there is no problem.
Zhao Gong took a few people to take a look, and then began to arrange for everyone to do the work. Bian Rui continued to do his job.
