Chapter 304: Renovating the House
The building in the attic was also demolished, and it was still a large passage room. Yoyo is going to set up this place as an activity room and put some gym equipment.
There was a fireplace in the living room, and grandma bought firewood and lit the fireplace, and the whole house quickly warmed up. In fact, the weather has begun to warm up at this time, but it is a little cold in the morning and evening. Grandma saw the fireplace and deliberately burned it.
Grandma and Yoyo began to move furniture inside, and the old furniture was put in the basement. Put it away and repair it later, these furniture are made of precious wood, and you are reluctant to throw it away.
There is an overseas Chinese store as a cover, and you find a set of retro European-style furniture in the mall, and Grandma Li and they all praise Grandma for her good vision.
In the stationery store, Yoyo bought a table tennis table, as well as dumbbells, sandbags and other cultural and sports supplies, and put them in the attic. In the overseas Chinese store, I bought a few large carpets and covered the floor of the attic.
At this time, the pure wool carpet is really cheap, a dozen square handmade carpets, beautiful patterns, exquisite workmanship, less than Wu Baiyuan, you want more than a dozen, and the others exist in the space.
With furniture, it's easy to talk about the rest, and there are basically all in the mall. Bedding, curtains, paintings, lighting and all kinds of ornaments are all European style.
Yoyo and Grandma bought a lot of foreign exchange coupons by buying furniture, and bought a lot of scarce items in overseas Chinese stores.
In particular, the embroidery in Suzhou was almost bought by the two mothers. Now, the labor force is cheap, and in Youyou's view, the high-quality Suzhou embroidery with a price of more than 100,000 yuan in the future is now the price of Chinese cabbage.
In addition, dozens of boxes of Moutai were bought, which in later generations were auctioned by the bottle. Even now, individuals can't buy it even if they have money, but fortunately, overseas Chinese stores are open for supply. There are foreign exchange coupons sold at the door, which is so convenient.
These days in Beijing, grandma and Youyou went to overseas Chinese stores when they had time, and bought a lot of foreign exchange coupons, and most of the foreign exchange coupons were bought into Moutai.
The two of them bought a total of 68 boxes of Moutai, each box was 24 bottles, and the salespeople at the counter knew them. Youyou looked at these Moutai in the space, and felt that satisfied.
In addition, Yoyo also asked his grandmother to buy dozens of world famous watches. These handmade mechanical watches were auction items in later generations, with a price of millions. However, Yoyo is not ready to auction it in his own mall, but is just ready to put it for his own family to use in the future.
The land in the yard was planted with roses, moon and other flowers, and two begonias and lilacs were planted, and the vacant space was sprinkled with lawn. After the decoration, this building can be regarded as a veritable bungalow.
On the twenty-eighth day of the first month, the family officially settled in. Hao Hao and Didi ran upstairs and downstairs. Turn the lights on, turn them off, turn them on, and everything in this house is full of wonder for them.
In the end, the two ran to the attic and had a good time. Didi lay on the ground tired, shouting that he would sleep here at night, and that the carpet was more comfortable than the bed. He shouted loudly: "It's better to be here, I can roll around, I'm not afraid of falling out of bed." ”
Grandma cooked two tables of meals and invited Professor Wen and them, and they also warmed the house for their mother.
On the second day of February, my mother invited her three roommates over again, and we had a meal together. In addition to Hou Lanzhen, who you have seen, her mother's roommate is also named Xu Yuting. She is four years older than her mother, 34 years old this year, and is a sanitation worker in Xijing.
She already has two sons. The eldest is 9 years old, the younger is 5 years old, they are all thrown at home, followed by her lover, there is another one in her belly, which is already pregnant, and she herself says that it is five months. When it comes to the summer vacation, it is time to have a baby.
Liu Ran is a lively girl, she is only 22 years old this year, and she is from Kyoto. When I entered the door, I was surprised and said, "This is the most beautiful yard I have ever seen when I am so big." Next time, I'll have to borrow a camera and take a few more photos here. It seems that her family is living well, and it is quite rare for a family to have a camera in this era.
Liu Ran is petite, has a baby face, and looks like seventeen or eighteen. It's Xu Yuting, who is more than one meter and six points tall, with rough skin, and looks like she is almost forty. However, she is quite steady, has a gentle personality, and looks like a big sister everywhere.
Hou Lanzhen's mother-in-law said that she would not come at all, so Hou Lanzhen had to come with the child in her arms. Her mother-in-law is also a real person, every day during the lunch break, for fear of affecting everyone's rest, she takes the child to the communication room downstairs, and then goes back after everyone has class.
The little guy was not afraid of life at all, staring at the big round eyes and turning his neck to look around. Di Di pulled Hou Lanzhen's clothes: "Auntie, when will my brother call my brother?"
Hao Hao told him: "If you can walk, you will call your brother, if you are a sister, you will call your brother, and you will leave." ”
Youyou's listening to the big head, this is Shenma logic. It's still grandma who solves everyone's doubts: "After a long time, I will talk first and then leave." When Didi was a child, it was the other way around, he would run away and not be willing to speak. ”
Mom and the four of them, although they are in two classes, but both classes are in a joint class, which is similar to one class, but the class activities are different.
The fifth day of the second month was Sunday, and my grandmother invited Gui Jin and Sun Wanjie and Wang Weihong to come, and everyone gathered together.
Dad's treatment for the patient is basically over, and the family is ready to go back. Grandma let Yoyo stay in the pantry and left enough food for Mom. On the sixth day of February, the family was going back.
In the afternoon, my grandmother took the whole family and went to her courtyard again. In more than ten days, the courtyard house took on a new look, and the four old people were more energetic, at least there were no traces of despair.
When several people saw Youyou's mother, they all gathered around: "Wanying, good boy, you have won glory for Ai Lao, after so many years, you are still admitted to Beijing University." ”
Mom looked at them carefully, but she didn't admit her mistake, and called out one by one: "Uncle Liu, Uncle Fu, Uncle He, Uncle Rong." ”
"Hey, Wanying, you can still recognize us, it seems that we haven't changed too much. ”
The fireplace in the middle hall was lit, and it was warm. The doors and windows are freshly painted, and they smell a little.
Liu Lao and the others led their grandmother and mother to look at the furniture, and in just over ten days, the east wing of the backyard had been filled by them. The furniture that was recovered was wiped clean by them.
They are all old experts, older than Li Baoguo. Every piece of furniture here, they can tell the truth. Rosewood, agarwood, and even a set of golden silk nanmu. Rosewood furniture, in their opinion, can not be included in the list of expensive furniture.
Youyou looked at the room full of precious furniture, his eyes were full of stars, this is all money, that furniture is comparable to gold.
