Chapter Forty-Eight: Changing Perceptions
"Did you hear that Lin Mujia is going to weave some Northeast Kang? His father is not at home, and his father still lets him mess around like this!"
"I heard that a hole in the wall is going to be torn down, isn't this a broken house!"
……
In just one night, Master Wang slept at Lin Mu's relative's house for one night, and the next morning, the news had spread all over the surrounding people.
At this time, the sky was bright, Master Wang had already gotten up, and the materials that had been prepared yesterday, with the help of Lin Mu and the old man, after reconciling the soil, began to tidy up the side house again.
Dig walls, lay bricks, add mud, build chimneys......
A group of children who have not yet entered school ran to Lin Mu's house to play, and there were also a few neighbors who came in to watch.
Lin Mu saw their surprised or concerned eyes, but he didn't want to explain it now.
Now all explanations are pale and powerless, and it is difficult to shake their deep-rooted notions, and only when they experience the benefits will all doubts disappear.
More than a meter next to the house, it is the kitchen, but it did not break through the wall of the kitchen, but directly built a stove outside the house against the wall.
"This stove is not for cooking, it is mainly for heating the kang, usually boiling a kettle on it, and putting the moving pot on it when cooking, which is very convenient. Master Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The partial room, as well as Lin Lin's room, have already been woven into the kang, because the two rooms are directly separated by only one wall, and the fire path is connected, as long as there is one stove.
Because most of the preparations were done on the first night, the kang was already woven at about four o'clock in the afternoon.
"Thank you, Master Wang, I'll hurry up and cook some food, and I'll rest here for another night tonight before leaving." Lin Mu handed him a glass of water.
Master Wang smiled: "It's okay, let's burn the fire first, the new kang has just been completed, and the dampness has to be removed, but I will definitely be able to sleep tonight." ”
After Lin Ye and Lin Lin came back from school, they were excited to find that their hut had really changed a lot, although the kang itself still felt a little wet, but because of the water heaters, the two rooms, the house was already very warm, the temperature was higher than that of spring, and it was extremely rare in this cold winter.
The neighbors who had questions in the first few years stayed in the house at this time, and there was no longer any doubt, such a temperature was something they had never imagined.
Every winter, who doesn't have a cold house, enters the house, and after drinking hot water, it is still very cold?
But the freshly made plumbing sheet keeps the room extremely warm, and while wearing only a thermal underwear, it also emits moisture, so that the air in the house does not look dry.
They have some fixed traditional beliefs, but they are not unchangeable, just like for thousands of years, Chinese people will not leave their homeland if they are not forced to live, but after only a few decades of reform, they can easily accept the way of life of going out to work.
On the contrary, those who stay at home will be ridiculed by them.
After the kang was woven, many villagers around came to see the excitement and experience the feeling of heating.
A group of friends that Lin Ye Lin knew climbed on the kang that had been covered with a layer of hard plastic mats, fluttering back and forth, very busy.
Even busier, Master Wang, when he saw the villagers, he sent them small notes with his phone number, which he had prepared a long time ago.
It was not until after nine o'clock that the neighbors finished one after another.
Due to the deliberately enlarged area of the kang, the four people did not seem to be crowded when sleeping, so the old man simply did not sleep in the main house, but slept in the side room with Lin Mu, Lin Ye, and Master Wang, and experienced the feeling of being bright and baked through the futon.
"Master, you have also seen this effect, one day I will order some brick materials, you call Master Wang, and weave the kang in the main house when you have time, otherwise at the end of the year, it will be difficult to get anything busy." Lin Mu persuaded.
The old man was already very satisfied, and agreed at the moment: "Okay, there must be many people in our village who want to weave, and you will be more busy when the time comes, Master Wang......"
……
Early the next morning, Master Wang had dinner, took the balance paid by Lin Mu, and went back.
Lin Mu didn't rush back, he helped the family tidy up the yard, piled the coal blocks he bought in the firewood house, washed the large clothes that were not easy to wash the three family members, and did all the other complicated work, before returning to the school under the urging of the old man.
On the way, he met Chen Shaofei and a few of them, so he nodded and smiled, after he left, he really didn't bully his little brother and sister anymore, and helped to do some work for the old man several times, which made Lin Mu feel a little more grateful.
Chen Shaofei hesitated a few times, smiled back, and just stood there, quietly watching Lin Mu leave.
A young man next to him said anxiously: "Brother Shaofei, why didn't you go and tell him? The next time he comes back, it is estimated that the school will be closed at the end of November, and it will be the New Year at that time!"
The other two people also looked at Chen Shaofei suspiciously.
Chen Shaofei said in a complicated tone: "Forget it, we offended him before, and now we haven't been able to let him help me find a job, let's talk about it after the year, I followed my uncle to learn in the car repair shop a year ago." Besides, Lin Mu is also in his third year of high school now, and it is estimated that he can't know a few people, so let's not bother him first......
The young man who spoke before was anxious: "Brother Shaofei, what are you talking about! The previous marriage you engaged, the woman will regret it because you don't have a job, if you don't find a good job, this family will be yellow!"
Chen Shaofei suddenly became irritable: "Huang is yellow! What if it's not yellow? What if you get married? Haven't you stayed in this village for the rest of your life? When will you be able to make a lot of money like Lin Mu, and won't let my mother even have to borrow money for medicine? My mother is sick, and that girl still wants this and that, I'll quit with him now! I have to save my mother's current medicine money!"
After speaking, he really hurriedly walked towards the village, and the three young men couldn't stop him, nor did they stop him, so they could only sigh and follow him.
……
Lin Mu, who was sitting in the car, turned on his mobile phone when he was bored, and strolled around and posted it.
After these two or three days, fans of "Martial Arts Story" have basically bought a copy and read it, and the most anticipated part is, of course, Lin Mu's serialized "Liancheng Jue".
In this chapter of "People Are as Light as Chrysanthemums", the love depicted is too simple and pure, and it is too affectionate and sad, many book fans, even after seeing Lin Mu's last book review, were so angry that they wanted to stab him with a knife, but after a while, they were still moved by the relationship between Ding Dian and Ling Shuanghua, and the voice of scolding Lin Mu suddenly faded a lot.
PS: As I said before, I recommend it to 600 plus a more chapter, as promised.
