Chapter 200: Summer Vacation Plan
The four brothers spent an afternoon in a nightmare, until the sun set in the west, and the heat in the air slowly subsided.
"Aunt Yu! Get me another bowl of cold noodles! Cheng Chumo sat under the big willow tree in the backyard, holding an empty bowl and shouting.
Since Master Yu ran the Fish Zhuangyuan Building, after a few days of dark life, the chef of the Mo Mansion was replaced by Aunt Yu, although Merton has endless theories in later generations, but in the end he is also a theorist.
At noon, the brothers didn't eat when it was hot, and when it was a little cooler at the moment, they let Aunt Yu eat a few bowls of cold noodles.
"It's coming!"
Aunt Yu looked at the empty bowl of the process with satisfaction, took out a lot of cold noodles from the large basin of cold water, and put them in the big bowl of Cheng Chumo. It is poured with a special soup that makes people whet their appetite.
"Aunt Yu, bring me a bowl too!
"I want it too!"
Qin Huaiyu and Yu Chi Baolin also handed over their empty bowls one after another.
"Good! Good! Both. ”
Aunt Yu said with a smile on her face, for a chef, seeing the talent he made is so popular, that is the biggest compliment.
After serving two bowls of rice in a row, Aunt Yu looked at her young master with hopeful eyes.
Morton touched his stomach and waved his hand, he didn't have such a good appetite as the three of them.
Aunt Yu shook her head regretfully, her own young master is good at everything, but the amount of food is a little smaller, how can it be like these three young men, Cheng Chumo is already ready to add the third bowl.
After eating, the sun had already set, and Qin Huaiyu and the three of them didn't even want to leave.
"Why, none of the three uncles are at home today?" Seeing that the three of them were unhurried, Merton couldn't help but ask curiously, usually at this time, the three of them usually had to get up and leave.
"Don't worry, my father will stay in the barracks today, and I already said before I left that I won't go back tonight." Cheng Chumo shook his head and said.
"Huh! My father also said that he would stay in the barracks today? Qin Huaiyu was surprised.
The three of them immediately looked sideways at Yu Chi Baolin. Yu Chi Baolin also nodded heavily.
Merton's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Since the emperor is going to Jiucheng Palace to escape the summer, what about the three uncles?" ”
"Of course we're going to escort us!" Qin Huaiyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and they suddenly felt a burst of excitement in their hearts, if Qin Qiong and the others went to Jiucheng Palace together, wouldn't there be no one to discipline them anymore.
"Last year was the same!" Yu Chi Baolin added, and the two of them suddenly remembered this and nodded one after another,
"Hey, hey, hey!" The tacit minds of the four of them became active.
"Fauber!"
Merton put it down, the empty bowl in his hand, and shouted.
Fu Bo came over in response and said with a smile: "Young Master, what are your orders?" ”
"Gather twenty Mo family disciples for me!." Merton waved his hand.
"Yes! Master! ”
Now in the Mo Mansion, it can be said that he is obedient to Moton, Fu Bo didn't even ask the reason, and immediately took the order, there are not a few children of Mojia Village in Chang'an City, and it is easy to find more than 20 people.
"Why do you want so many people?" Qin Huaiyu frowned.
Merton said proudly: "Even His Majesty has gone to escape the summer today, it can be seen how difficult this summer will be, we naturally can't go to Jiuhua Palace, so don't hurry up and find a way, I think it's better to ask for others than yourself, then how about building a place to escape the summer." ”
In this era of no air conditioning and no fans, if you want to survive this rare summer in history with just a few pu fans in your hands, Merton thinks about it not (full) cold (head) but (big) chestnut (sweat).
"Build it yourself? Will it work? Although the three of them were very interested, they wondered in their hearts.
Merton said confidently: "Don't worry, the custody will open your eyes." ”
The next day, the three people who stayed in Mofu were woken up by a loud noise.
"Yawn!"
Qin Huaiyu yawned and put on a piece of clothing to push open the door, looking up at the sky, the east had just turned white.
"Morning!"
The doors of the two adjacent rooms opened, revealing the heads of Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin.
"Why is it so noisy, Merton?" Qin Huaiyu asked with a yawn.
"Don't know?" The two shook their heads and opened Merton's door, only to find no one inside.
"It should be in the back garden!" Qin Huaiyu pointed to the source of the voice and said.
"Let's go! Check it out! The three of them were woken up and no longer sleepy, so they walked to the backyard.
When the three of them went to the backyard, they first found the figure of Merton under the weeping willows and the huge pit in front of him.
Qin Huaiyu walked closer and looked at the huge soil pit, and many Mo family disciples were digging at the bottom of the pit and putting it into a huge hanging basket.
Around the pit, two steel cable booms are used to lift the baskets filled with earth with huge chains and place them on top of the waiting carriages.
In a few moments, the four-wheeled carriage was already filled with earth, and immediately four horses stepped forward to pull the carriage away, and the next carriage was quickly filled.
"The east is four feet deep, don't dig too much! The south side is six feet deep, pay attention to the distance from the willow trees, and the north side is nine feet deep, and the drainage should be intensified. Merton commanded.
Soon, the two-foot pit had been completed, and many of the Mo family's children were tamping the soil while draining the water, even around them.
"What is this doing?" Qin Huaiyu was puzzled, he had a good house, and he dug such a big pit overnight.
"This is where my brothers and I will take refuge in the summer." Merton said proudly, pointing to the dirt pit.
"Ahh The three of them looked at the dirt pit and suddenly felt a chill.
"Merton, I've heard that wild boars escape the heat by smearing their whole bodies in mud puddles, but brother doesn't have to be like that!" Cheng Chu silently shook the goosebumps all over his body.
"Phew! Are you a wild boar? Merton also had a chill, and couldn't help but shudder, and said, "Don't worry, this is just a preliminary construction, and you'll know later." ”
At this time, Xu Jie walked over, followed by two fully loaded four-wheeled carriages.
"Young master, the bluestone slab you asked for has been delivered." Xu Jie was puzzled, early in the morning, he got Merton's instructions to go to the street to buy bluestone slabs, and thought that Merton wanted to rebuild the road.
With a wave of his hand, a group of Mo family disciples will be filled with bluestone slabs one by one to lift the bluestone slabs into the soil pit, first the bottom of the pit, then the four walls, and finally the surrounding shores are all paved full, under the skillful hands of the Mo family's children, even the corners are handled very exquisitely.
"Fill the water, flush!" Under Merton's order, a waterwheel was erected, and under the pull of a horse, a large amount of well water gushed out and flowed into the pool, and the muddy water washed out was quickly discharged by the children of the Mo family who had been prepared for a long time.
After three consecutive washes, the water finally cleared.
Everyone in the pool withdrew, a large number of well water was continuously injected, watching the water level continue to rise, the bluestone slab below was clearly visible, coupled with the reflection of the weeping willows next to it, the pool water was faintly faint
Soon, a very modern swimming pool appeared in front of everyone.
