No.248 Heating problem

Day after day, it took more than a month for Qingshu, who was upset because of the "Zhou Su Codex", to really let go of the matter. An Rongzhou never came back after leaving, and Mrs. Li, who was escorted away, never came out with any news. Except for the inevitable trivial contradictions and small disputes in life, Qingshu's life was relatively peaceful, and she didn't encounter any broken things that made her heart beat and her sleep and eat restlessly.

The qiΔ“ in the wasteland is proceeding in an orderly manner. The surviving fruit trees grow well; More than a dozen of the 100 chickens, ducks and geese that were kept free-range during the period have been lost, and the remaining 80 or so have adapted to the environment there. These chickens, ducks and geese feed on their own in the orchard during the day, and will automatically return to their nests before evening, because the open space in front of the chickens, ducks and geese is waiting for them with mixed rice bran and water.

Because of the careful care, weeding is done every few days, and the survival rate of peppers and red fruits in the vegetable field is about 80 percent, and the survival rate is good. Although I feel sorry for the lost seedlings, this is a wasteland that has just been reclaimed, and it is already good to have such an effect, and Qingshu is very satisfied. The other vegetables planted around have also grown, not particularly good, not too bad, and you can eat some seasonal vegetables. The germination rate of the planted buds and sorghum is not very good, so the growth of the sparse and sparse growth is not very good, just like a malnourished person who looks unrefreshed.

Qingshu didn't bother about this, because he had already been mentally prepared. How easy it is to reclaim wasteland and improve the soil! It's not something that can be done in a year or two, it takes a lot longer, and you need to take your time. She has no shortage of labor, no shortage of silver to transform the wasteland, only patience.

On the wasteland, she stood in front of a row of 41 blue-brick houses that had been completed yesterday afternoon, excited.

Steward Zhang accompanied him, "Miss, most of the doors and windows have been completed." The day after tomorrow, craftsmen will come and install doors and windows one by one. "After that, ventilate it for half a month or a month, and you can live in it when the humidity is gone.

"When is Master Zhang coming?" She asked eagerly.

"Come early the day after tomorrow." Steward Zhang replied that this was said five days ago.

"Don't wait. You go and check if Master Liu's people have left. Also, call the ingots over, the people I brought over will stay, and you can try to avoid the others. "She can't wait, she needs to know the results today.

Steward Zhang hurriedly went to check and came back after a short time. He reported that Master Liu's men had left together yesterday and had not returned today. In addition, all the laborers were weeding in the fields, and none of the people who were busy working on the thatched hut came to this side. He also called Yuanbao and came over immediately.

She nodded, beckoned her followers to go to the left, and stopped outside the door of the middle one of the forty-one rooms in a row. She glanced inside, continued walking, and walked into the room to its left. Because the doors and windows are not yet installed, there is basically nothing in the house, and it looks empty. She stepped over, easily finding a valve in the room on a round iron pipe mounted against the wall, and grasping its handle, "Look at it." If you screw it like this, it's off. Screw it back, it's on. What Master Zhang said, you have to remember it. She took her hand away and patted off a bit of dust from her palm, "Steward Zhang, the pipeline next door is fine, right?" ”

Steward Zhang stepped forward and replied, "Miss, it's okay, according to Master Zhang's instructions, this room and the one next door to the left, only these two rooms have all the pipes and heating sheets installed." ”

She ordered, "Send someone over and turn off the valve next door." ”

Immediately the housekeepers went over and closed the valve.

She walked out of the room and into the middle room. This room was built larger than the other forty rooms, and the corresponding doors and windows were also larger. The most striking thing in the room were the staggered pipes and the strange two large iron furnaces, and a wooden stepped ladder three feet wide and four feet high. She had the ladder pushed over and against the left wall. In the midst of everyone's puzzled gaze, she stepped on the wooden steps of the ladder and walked up.

She stood on the top step of the wooden ladder and could see what looked like a sink made of wood. This sink is different from other sinks in that it is fixed to the wall at a high point, and there is a large round hole at the bottom, which is attached to the thick iron pipe at the bottom. The wooden sink was empty, and she turned to the person down and said, "The valve in the first room next door has been opened, and you can refill the water here." Master Zhang said that water should be added to the bottom of the sink where there is water, and you can't add less or more," and then pointed to a large iron furnace below, "After adding water, a fire will be made here." ”

Steward Zhang, who was holding her breath, and others hurriedly persuaded her to come down, saying that it was very dangerous.

That's when she realized she had made a small mistake. It's really inappropriate for a girl's family to stand on it in front of so many people. Besides, there are so many people under her command, she just points to someone to go up, and there is no need to climb up by herself.

Xiaojuan, who followed her up, hurriedly helped her down. Then the master and servant went outside.

The crowd moved. Find buckets, find flat poles, carry water, carry firewood, and so on. When the water came, Steward Ding stood on the wooden ladder, took the bucket handed by the person below, and added water to the sink. The water was added, and listening to the sound of the water flowing in the iron pipe, everyone looked nervous. It took three buckets of water to fill the bottom of the sink. Steward Ding shouted that it was okay, and a fire was lit in the big iron furnace.

Steward Zhang, who stayed in the house, did not come out, either looking around the big iron furnace or studying the suspended pipes in the house.

The firewood burned for about a quarter of an hour, and several people who were observing in the next room ran out happily, "Miss, it's hot, the pipe is hot, and the iron piece is hot." ”

Her eyes lit up and she hurried in to confirm. Warm pipes, warm iron radiators, it's so nice. It's a success, it's a success. "Yuanbao, go quickly, open the valve in the room next to you. Also, tell them quickly, add more water, quickly. ”

Yuan Bao loudly agreed and ran out. When he saw Steward Ding coming out of the big iron furnace room, he shouted for more water, and ran into the next door to open the valve.

In this way, two more buckets of water were added to the sink. The fire-burner continued to burn, and kept throwing wood into the big iron furnace

After a while, Yuan Bao cheered again, shouting that the pipes in the room were also hot.

Seeing everyone laughing around Tu Nuan, she smiled reassuringly, and called Steward Ding aside to speak, "You should be careful about this matter, tell Master SΓΉ Zhang, and then hit the iron pipes and iron sheets used in the eighteen rooms, and then you can take the other eighteen rooms with this stove first." Once you're ready, light the fire and try it to see if one stove can heat twenty rooms. If there is no problem, the other twenty will also be typed out, and the installation should be done as soon as possible. If not, look at how many rooms a stove can heat up to a room. ”

Steward Ding took over this errand with a stern face, "Miss, don't worry, when you return to the town, the little one will immediately go over to talk to Master Zhang." ”

When the water in the earth heating pipe boiled, and the sound of the water return and the water vapor during the return water rose in the house, Qing Shu happily announced: Go home. She kept laughing all the way back, and now that the heating facilities in winter have been solved, and the floor heating pipes can be broken after adding floor heating pipes to the design of her new home. If she is good, she will be able to move over with the whole province in winter.

She entered the house and got out of the carriage, and when she saw Qingyang who greeted her, she couldn't hold back for a while, and rushed forward to hug him in front of people, "Xiaoyang, Xiaoyang, my sister is so happy, hehe......"

I didn't expect my sister to be like this in front of people, although Qingyang was puzzled, but his sister was happy and he was happy, so he asked, "What good things happened?" Sue sΓΉ Xiaoyang, quickly sue sΓΉ Xiaoyang. ”

Ahem...... The ancient housekeeper coughed a few times, the purpose was to remind the master of the gaffe to quickly recover to normal.

Qing Shu came back to his senses for a moment, didn't dare to look at Steward Gu's face, let go of his hand and didn't dare to hold Qingyang anymore, but dragged Qingyang back to his yard.

Qing Shu dragged Qingyang into the inner room, and then couldn't wait to tell the story of Tu Nuan's success, and then the two sisters and brothers jumped on the ground with cheers, like madmen.

"Miss, young master, hurry, Mother Su is here." The little girl hurriedly came in to report the news, and when she saw that Qing Shu immediately quieted down, she quickly looked at Qing Shu from top to bottom, and said, "Miss, no problem." "I've covered more times, and IqiΔ“ is getting more and more handy at it, even her little girl is no exception.

Hearing this, Qing Shu breathed a sigh of relief, quickly separated from Qingyang, and then sat down in front of the dresser by himself, and let Qingyang sit on the chair next to the table.

The little girl went out to take a look, and when she returned, she whispered to Qingshusu's mother that she was about to enter the hospital, and then stood in the door with her eyebrows lowered and her eyes lowered.

Not long after, Su's mother, who was successfully dragged by Xiaoyu for a while, arrived. Mother Su first saluted the two masters, and then asked Qingyang puzzled, "Young Master, why are you here?" It's not time for the end of the sir's class. ”

"My husband asked me to wait for my sister to come back. The gentleman said that he had something to do with his sister, so he asked his sister to come back and freshen up and go to the school immediately. ”

Mother Su did not doubt him, "In this case, Miss will go to Mr. first, and the old slave will report after Master Fu's matter." ”

Qing Shu, who was combing her hair again, turned around, "What's wrong over there?" Seeing Su's mother hesitating, she said again, "Say, comb your hair and change your clothes." It means that she has enough time to listen to Su's mother's report.

"The eldest lady sent her mother-in-law to spread the word that Master Fu is sick, and the illness is not light." Su's mother pointed to her head, "It's confused here." It is said that he is sober for a while and confused for a while. When awake, a qiΔ“ is normal. When I was confused, I couldn't recognize people clearly, so I called the eldest young master the second brother, and the eldest lady called the eldest sister, and I also beat Miss Hui'er. ”

She asked inwardly, "Is there such a thing?" Have you seen a doctor? ”

"I said that I had seen it, but the doctor couldn't tell what illness Master Fu had, so he only prescribed a few pairs of calming medicines."

She said flatly, "Got it." ”

Su's mother had no intention of retreating, there was a look of hesitation on her face, as if she had something to say.
