Chapter Seventy-Two: An Elaborate Gift

The relocation was carried out quickly.

In just one week, nearly 1,000 people in the second and third years of high school all moved to the old site of Chenggao.

Now there is a sign hanging here, and it is the high school of the children's school.

Only one of the original two teaching buildings was opened, and the other building was still being renovated, and I heard that all the laboratories were arranged there. The second and third floors are the classrooms of the third year of high school.

The purpose of isolating the senior year is to create a relatively quiet environment where the senior students can devote themselves to their studies.

Because the second teaching building has not been installed, now it can only be improvised.

Opposite the playground of a standard soccer field is a dormitory building, with three buildings arranged in a zigzag pattern.

The girls' dormitory building is on the other side near the cafeteria, and the other two are the boys' dormitory buildings.

The principal was willing to spend money, not only painted all the interior and exterior walls of the dormitory building, but also renovated the bathrooms on each floor so that each floor had a shower room. However, the water is supplied according to the time, twice a day from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., with an interval of 20 minutes.

The conditions are much stronger than those of the children's school, and ceiling fans are installed in each dormitory. However, the accommodation fee is also much higher, at least one-third higher than before at the school.

There is no mandatory requirement to live on campus, but the school has also stated that the school is not responsible for any accidents that occur after leaving the school once you choose to go to school.

Chen Yixin had already agreed with his family that he would rent a house with his uncle Liu Bin to live outside. She said that in addition to her homework at school, she also needed to learn other things, which was inconvenient at school.

Chen's father and Chen's mother are very relieved of their daughter, except for worrying that Liu Bin will not take good care of her, they do not suspect that their daughter has other plans to not do her job.

The house Liu Bin rented is not bad, in the courtyard of a unit near Chenggao. On the first floor, there are two rooms.

The landlord was sent to work elsewhere, and the house here was always empty, and one of Liu Bin's clients knew that he was going to rent a house and helped introduce him.

"Originally, people didn't want to rent, and there was no shortage of these two money, this is not that I heard that it was a student who wanted to study, and there was a relationship with Brother Wang, so they agreed to rent it out, and the rent was not high, the only requirement was to protect the furniture. ”

The decoration is very good, there are appliances and everything, even the refrigerator and washing machine are ready.

The Chen family only bought some household appliances in the past six months, not to mention refrigerators before, even washing machines are luxuries.

Chen Yixin was very satisfied, originally said to give the master bedroom to the little uncle, but Liu Bin disagreed, saying that he didn't live here every day, and Chen Yixin needed a desk to do his homework, and there were not so many things in the small room, so the balcony of the master bedroom was transformed into a study, which was just right.

Your own family doesn't have to be polite, the master bedroom is the master bedroom. I can even prepare a house for my uncle in advance, let alone a good room.

There are still a lot of professional books left in the landlord's bookcase, most of which Chen Yixin can't read and doesn't plan to read. After carefully noting down the original position, she put the books together, leaving the bottom space for her book workbook.

The new house is only a five-minute walk from the school, and the No. 1 Middle School is only a 10-minute bike ride, and it is much easier to get to Professor Zhang's house.

Chen's father and Chen's mother also came to see it, and they couldn't be more satisfied anywhere, so Chen's mother also specially cooked a good meal to treat her younger brother.

It's the National Day in a blink of an eye.

Chen Yixin took the time to go to Liulichang to buy some small things, and made an ornament as a gift for Professor Zhang.

It's not that she doesn't go to the antique city to Taobao, but the main thing is that if she goes again, Professor Zhang may be angry.

He has always taught Chen Yixin to look at cultural relics with a learning eye, and it is her blessing to find treasures in the process. But I don't like to Taobao for the sake of Taobao, even if it's under the banner of looking for a gift for him.

This ornament was seen by Chen Yixin from the album, and then reimagined, using the materials he could find, a Qibao tree ornament made by himself.

The ornament is not large, 20 centimeters high, 15 centimeters in diameter at the bottom, and it is just right to put it on the table.

The children who grew up in the machinery factory are no strangers to lathe milling machines, and with the help of Chen's father and Yan Mingli, it took two days to complete.

The ornaments were made, so beautiful that they didn't want it, even Yan Mingli was moved.

If he hadn't known that this was a birthday gift for Professor Zhang, he might have asked Chen Yixin for a treat.

"Xinxin, at the end of the year, my father's seventieth birthday, you ponder it, how about I send this?"

"Don't. Chen Yixin denied, "The Seven Treasure Tree is a legendary thing, and I made this because Professor Zhang likes these." If it's Uncle Yan's 70th birthday, I think you might as well think of a way to make an ornament of an Antarctic immortal?"

Chen Yixin flipped out the picture of the Antarctic immortal from a mythological book he carried.

"Antarctic Immortal Weng is also known as the old man of the birthday star. You make a pine crane out of copper sheet and iron, which represents the longevity of the pine crane. Then next to it are the pottery or clay sculptures of the Antarctic fairy and the child, the child holding a big longevity peach. The meaning of such an ornament is in line with the gift to the birthday star. And the pine cranes are all ground out by your own hands and glued on little by little, and your mind is enough. ”

Yan Mingli nodded, asked where the clay sculptures could be found, and learned that there were a lot of these small things in the antique city, regardless of whether they were true or not, they could just offer two yuan each.

"Most of those small things are old, the cost is very low, two pieces are enough, you can choose the one that fits your eyes. ”

Yan Mingli pulled Liu Bin, who had just finished talking about the list and was about to touch the fish, to run to the antique city, which made Liu Bin sigh constantly, saying that they were all stunned.

Chen Yixin stuck out her tongue at her uncle and continued to polish the base she had customized from the carpenter in Red Star Town.

After the base is made, it has to be drilled again, and then the treasure tree is loaded, and the surrounding area also needs to be wound with copper wire to make a mountain stone, which is convenient to fix, otherwise the treasure tree is top-heavy and easy to plant.

The copper wire is wound, carefully poured with liquid lead, and finally treated and colored, so that it shows the texture and color of the rock.

This step was completed by Chen's father, and Chen Yixin's craftsmanship was impossible to do.

"It's beautiful!"

After doing it, even Chen Yixin himself was amazed. If it weren't for the lack of WeChat moments, she would definitely take photos and upload them as soon as possible.

"Eh, Dad, don't you have a camera in your factory? I will take a photo and send it to the magazine to submit it. ”

This modern craft is highly technical and involves almost all the skills required of a high-level tradesman. It's also a sixth-level fitter for Chen's father, and it is impossible for those with lower skills to do such fine polishing.

Chen's father didn't think he had done much at all, but what his baby daughter asked for was not a big deal, so he took out the camera and asked Chen Yixin to take a few good pictures.

She still needs to wash film, and there are about 30 shots of a camera film, and she has only taken four or five photos, and she doesn't know what to shoot to run out of film for a while.

Thinking of this, she had a thought, and pulled Chen's father to the lathe, and asked him to continue processing with the remaining copper sheets, and came to pose for a photo.
