021 Repair completed
Lin Yuxiu watched these men in the village work, and felt for the first time that it turned out that there were really many people with great strength, and if this was done by a family, I was afraid that it would not be able to finish it over the years. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The men in the Zhuang family are all accustomed to work, and because they pity Lin Yuxiu for taking the initiative, they work a little more carefully than usual, and they don't need to be urged to do it seriously, and they don't know how much more profitable they are than usual.
Where the wall is broken, it is repaired with stones, and then it is filled with mud and smoothed, and the cracked wood, which can be repaired, and what cannot be repaired, are all done habitually, and it is not very difficult to do it, and after the walls, doors and windows are repaired, it is time to repair the roof.
The roof looks almost unusable, but it is indeed not difficult to repair, the fine bamboo is densely spread on the rafters, and then a thick layer is carefully placed on the chopped wheat straw mud, so that the repaired roof as long as it does not encounter heavy rainstorms, there is no problem with persisting for ten or eight years, compared to the thatched roof, I don't know how much stronger and more durable.
Only a little of the bluestone blocks mined from the foot of the mountain were used to repair the wall, and there were still a lot left, so I simply repaired the collapsed wall.
The courtyard wall of Lin Dayi's old house was built with large pieces of bluestone, and now it is repaired with bluestone, which can be regarded as complementing each other.
Of course, Lindejean didn't think it was so good-looking, but sturdy.
Lin Derang felt that for Lin Yuxiu, a female doll, the courtyard wall was very important. Especially this house is very close to Chonglan Mountain, although it is said that the beasts in the mountains have not come down and broken into the village all these years, but no one dares to guarantee that there is no one, right? If this comes, isn't a little girl even capable of self-preservation?
Therefore, this courtyard wall should not only be repaired to look good, but more importantly, it should be repaired to be sturdy, so that this baby can live safely, even if there are jackals, tigers and leopards, it is guaranteed that it will not be able to enter.
The men do the work of building walls and repairing the roof, and the women can't do the work of making a lot of effort, but they are not far behind, that is, they help clean up some small things in the house. There are country women on the left and right, not so light and afraid of the heavy, all of them have good strength and ability, not to say that they can't help or anything, do these jobs, one by one is careful and neat, and the work they do is much more beautiful than what men do.
Lin Yuxiu, as the master, didn't dare to be idle, she also did what others did, but she couldn't do it, so she went to find other lighter jobs to do, and she was not idle from morning to night, like hugging grass or something, but it was difficult to stop.
When the mud on the wall is dry, brush it twice with white lime water, and the earthen wall will become a white wall, Lin Yuxiu originally felt that it was a waste. She was alone, with a mud wall, where she could also use lime water.
But Uncle Nineteen said that the house with lime water is insect-proof, strong and durable. He also joked that he couldn't help repair the house after a year or two.
Lin Yuxiu looked at it, this white wall really looked much better than the mud wall, and she only felt full of joy, this white-walled room looked much brighter than before.
On the fourth day, there was only the work of pankang and pan stove that had not been done.
The kang in the house has already collapsed, and it can't be done without re-coiling. After discussing with Lin Yuxiu, according to what she said, on the kang plate in the two ear rooms, as for the hall room, it will not be plated first.
Lin Yuxiu makes sense, anyway, she is a little girl, and she can't live in so many houses, the hall is big, and she doesn't keep warm in winter, so it's better to live in the ear room.
She is an orphan, she doesn't even have a relative, it's useless to ask for so many kangs, besides, it's not enough to have a kang, what's the use of asking for a kang without a cover?
The kang was brought by Lin Daqiang and was completed quickly. In the end, the stove in the stove room was not plated. According to the rural area, the stove room is the most important place in the home, so it cannot be neglected.
Uncle Qing in the village is the best at cooking, but he happened to take over some work in the town recently, and he has to work outside, so he hasn't come to help these days. However, he sent his family to say early that he had packed the stove of the jade girl's house, and said that he must give it a good plate.
In the afternoon, when the stove was being made, he really came, and not only did people come, but also brought a cart of green bricks. In the afternoon, with a few big men, the stove with three stoves was ready, and the green brick stove was even carefully wiped with lime soil, which looked clean and refreshing, so that Lin Yuxiu liked it.
Uncle Nineteen wanted to give him money for bricks, but he didn't want it, saying that he was helping the jade girl, and said that he was already embarrassed to do less work, if he even asked for money for these bricks, what would he become.
With the concerted efforts of so many people, this huge courtyard was repaired in only four days, and the originally desolate and infiltrating house stood neatly in the courtyard in front of everyone.
At first glance, there is nothing unpleasant about this house, except that the wood looks old, and there are new patches on top of it, which look colorful and incongruous.
Lin Yuxiu carefully rubbed the walls and window lattices of the house, and sincerely sighed that the people in the village were very careful, even if they were free to help people work, there was no slack at all, and even the small cracks on the windows and doors were carefully repaired to ensure that there would be no air leakage.
More careful women even pasted the windows for Lin Yuxiu, and skillfully cut the festive window grilles and pasted them, giving the old house that had not been inhabited for many years a new atmosphere. Now, even if someone walked in, they couldn't imagine what the house would have been like four or five days ago.
In the house, the few worthless and damaged furnishings left by the Li family when he remarried in the early years were also spotlessly clean. The missing leg stool and table have been repaired, and although one leg looks new and a little out of tune, there is no problem in using it, and everything is stable.
In the end, it took five and ninety yuan, because it had been calculated a long time ago, it would take six or seven yuan, but now the actual cost is less than the budget, Lin Yuxiu knows that this is all the people in the village when they help, they can save what they can save, and they can save what they can save.
Lin Yuxiu is not a fool, of course she is very grateful for this, and she can't do anything else, but the good words that don't require money are not less said.
Five yuan of money, in the future life, that is, five or six thousand yuan, what is enough? Not to mention repairing a house and buying a house, it is to decorate a house, which is not enough for three square meters, but in this era, how can she not be grateful for repairing her own house, which is rotten and can no longer be rotten, into such a sturdy appearance?
The mouth is sweet and easy to do, others have helped themselves, and if they have a few nice words, they should be, Lin Yuxiu still understands this truth. So this time to help in the end, Lin Yuxiu got the benefits, but the people who helped were all happy, and they kept praising Lin Yuxiu for being well-behaved and cute.
