Build a rabbit's nest
Chu Ying wiped her face with the towel on her shoulder, it was hot and she was a little tired from work. "Ye Qiu, there's no water, you can boil some water."
Ye Qiu helped Uncle Qi hand the wood, "You go burn, I'll cut the wood." Ye Qiu dragged Chu Ying, who was working in the shed, to the kitchen.
The weather was hot, Chu Ying's body couldn't bear it, so Ye Qiu asked Chu Ying to chop wood in the shed, and he passed and helped with some scattered work outside, where he needed to.
Chu Ying looked at Ye Qiu's already somewhat tanned face, the baby from this city would turn into black coal like herself in a few days. Chu Ying poured the boiling water into the clay pot and continued to burn it with the scrap wood that had been chopped down.
"Uncle Qi, take a break, this is the sun." Chu Ying moistened the face towel with a well and put it on her shoulder, but in fact, it was not so hot in the house.
"Come on, this gable is almost ready." Chu Ying looked at Uncle Qi, who was almost in his 30s, sitting between the wooden beams and the wooden beams like this, and there was no cover on his head.
"Uncle Qi, why don't you go to the kitchen and make the rabbit nest first, and then move in when it's time to move in, let's come in and do it." Chu Ying added some more water to the bowl of feeding the rabbit, the progress of this rabbit nest had to be rushed, maybe it was the reason for the dry body, Chu Ying now felt hot all over her body.
"That's fine." Uncle Qi climbed down and wiped his face with a well. "Then come in too."
Chu Ying moved the wooden pier to the corner to make room for Uncle Qi, "It's okay, Ye Qiu won't be too hot in the shed." "
Chu Ying was boiling water here, and explaining her drawings to Uncle Qi over there, anyway, they were all in the kitchen, so she could detect it if the water was boiling. "That's pretty much it, do you think it's all possible?"
"You're quite thoughtful, and it's going to be a bit troublesome to do, but it should be doable." Uncle Qi asked Ye Qiu to chop the thinner wood to the required length according to the size of the rabbit nest.
When he made the first rabbit cage, Uncle Qi still made mistakes a few times, but it was always the old Jianghu, Chu Ying said something, and Uncle Qi immediately understood it and changed some awkward places.
The first rabbit cage took a long time, but the first one was done, and Uncle Qi had a sample, so he asked Chu Ying to make some basic mortise and tenon joints, and the fine parts were made by himself.
Chu Ying originally seemed to understand a little, but now she knows a little about the use of mortise and tenon joints, this small hammer and groove knife can change so many mortise and tenon styles, although it takes several times longer than the nails of modern buildings, but it is very strong, and there is no worry about deformation, because the structure resists each other.
"It's not bad, it's doing well." Chu Ying watched Uncle Qi sometimes add more to his own foundation, or drill a hole between two pieces of wood, and add a small piece of wood through the middle, which made Chu Ying a little confused......
"No matter how these mortise and tenon structures change, they are also inseparable, one male and one female, and they fit each other." Chu Ying smirked and continued to do her simple work, also paying attention to whether the water was boiling.
Waiting for the evening, Uncle Qi has already built the wooden structure of the rabbit nest and the rabbit house, the roof and the wall are still not available, the roof itself still can't afford to buy tiles, and the heat dissipation performance of the tiles is not good, I am afraid that it will be too hot in summer.
"Uncle Qi, after dinner, you were busy before, you left early, you must keep it for dinner this time, Ye Qiu's rice is done." Chu Ying helped Uncle Qi tidy up the tools.
"Okay then." Uncle Qi looked at the wall built by Chu Ying himself, it was relatively smooth, and the wall was thicker, so the thermal insulation performance would be better, although the outside was not brushed with the wall powder that Chu Ying had told before, but it looked pretty good.
"Uncle Qi, where should you put these windows when they fall?" Chu Ying compared the vent specially made by Uncle Qi to the place where the wall was to be erected later.
"It's better to put it on a little higher, didn't you say that the sun shone on the earth, and then the heat of the earth became hot on people? It should be a little cooler up there. Chu Ying watched Uncle Qi tell him about solar radiation and ground radiation just now, and felt that in fact, there were simple explanations for esoteric things.
"That's right." Chu Ying also wants to make the walls thicker in this room, this earthen wall can be insulated to keep the room warm, and naturally it can also be insulated, so that the air inside can be kept relatively cool.
When the food was full, Uncle Qi took advantage of the fact that the sky was starting to get dark, and hurriedly took his things and prepared to leave. "Uncle Qi, don't forget the money, 2 yuan is right? I said yes before. "
"That's right, then I'll go first, it's hard to walk when it's dark at night." Chu Ying was busy in the kitchen, giving Uncle Qi the homemade torch and two small flints.
"Take this, don't be afraid if it's dark." Uncle Qi looked at the torches that were simple but used a lot of pine strips, and this torch could burn for a long time.
"Then thank you, I'll go first, and then if you need anything to repair, just let someone bring a letter, and save you a trip."
"Okay, be careful on your way." Chu Ying sent it away, and Uncle Qi helped Ye Qiu clean up the dishes and chopsticks.
