Chapter 73 Craftsmanship
When Shen Shi first arrived, the sky was a little overcast, and the north wind was howling and rolling up the snow on the ground, making it difficult to see the road ahead.
Exhausted, the timber was dragged to the courtyard, and the hands and feet of several people who had collapsed were still twitching uncontrollably.
Snow has fallen too often in recent days, and it has fallen more heavily than usual. If the open-roofed house is not repaired as soon as possible, it will be worse if a snow falls because it does not leave them much time to rest.
Turning out a few bottles of medicine from his bag, Rujiu came to a few people, "Take off your coats, I'll give you medicine." ”
"Let's do it ourselves." Shen Ruliu scratched her head embarrassedly.
I think that in ancient times, men and women were not seated at the age of seven, although they were brothers and sisters, they still had to avoid suspicion.
He was no longer reluctant, and handed him the bottle of ointment, "Then you rub each other, and take one pill per person in this bottle." ”
"Xiao Jiu, what is this? How does it look like a sugar pill? Shen Ru took a pill she handed over, and there were a few turquoise patterns on the white round top, this is a pill?
"Yun Xu Dan: Relax the muscles and activate the nerves, warm the rhyme and blood. Eat it, poison and don't kill people. ”
"It's poison, and my brother Jiu'er gave it will eat it."
Ignoring this poor-mouthed guy, Rujiu squatted down in front of the fourth brother, his eyes became sharper and sharper as he retracted his feet, and his smile became more and more dangerous.
"That, Xiao Jiu..."
"Stick out."
"No, no, brother..."Xiao Jiu's angry appearance was so terrifying, Shen Ru couldn't say anything more and quickly stretched out his feet.
The pierced boots had long since fallen ill, and the fingers that had been curled up were somewhat deformed, and there was yellow pus flowing around the melted flesh that had been frozen and rotten.
Some scarlet eyes were pursed, and his hands held his feet without saying a word.
"Don't, Jiu'er is dirty, I'm fine..."
"Shut up." Annoyed that he didn't have the outlet, "Are you stupid?" ”
The surrounding air plummeted to freezing.
"I'm sorry." "I'm sorry."
The brother and sister spoke at the same time, and Rujiu blurted out some hurtful words for himself.
Shen Ruyan, who was hot in his heart, knew that this was his sister who felt sorry for him, and he was angry because he didn't know how to take care of his body.
Without the slightest dislike, Rujiu helped him clean up the minced meat, squeeze out the pus, and then carefully medicated.
Shen Ruliu, who was silently watching this scene on the side, couldn't say whether they should be more envious or more distressed.
It's just that the four sisters and brothers invariably said in their hearts: It's good to have a sister.
Shen Ruliu couldn't help but regret thinking, I don't know if it's too late to take back the earlier sentence that I got the medicine?
I always feel like I'm missing out on the gold, it's really uncomfortable!
……
Each of them applied the medicine, and the medicinal effect of the pill and the plaster dissipated quickly, and after a while, everyone returned to the state of vitality.
Sighing again, the miraculous effect of Xiao Jiu Dan pill, everyone followed and fell into the busyness of racing against time.
Those who could move all moved, and the whole small courtyard was in full swing, although they were tired, everyone had a smile on their faces.
Even Shen Shancheng and Shen Shanshi, who were lying down and couldn't move, had deep smiles on their faces.
It was finally repaired before the snow fell.
The main house in the middle is the hall house, as well as the rooms of Shen Jiye and the old couple of He.
There are a total of five rooms in the east and west wings, originally one for Shen Shancheng's four brothers, and the largest one for Shen Rucheng and his brothers to squeeze into one room.
Now that Rujiu has returned, He took Jiang to clean up the small room in the main room as a storage room and used it to make her a boudoir.
In several of the rooms, there were no wooden beds, but a stone bed made of whole rocks was covered with reeds and straw mats, and finally a thick layer of thatch.
The beds were like that, not to mention the furniture, except for a boxy wooden table and two long wooden benches in the hall.
Fortunately, they don't have many clothes, all stacked on top of each other on the edge of the bed, and they don't pay attention to what furniture they need such as wardrobe wooden boxes.
Over the years, I have to save money to see a doctor and buy medicine, and I can save money on food and clothing, and I still use the money that Jiang's mother's family secretly stuffed when I left, and I bought it when I first came here.
……
When everyone was busy cleaning up and cleaning the inside and outside of the house, Rujiu walked through several houses, and when he came out, he stood in the courtyard and said something in his mouth, carefully thinking about what needed to be built.
"Sixth brother."
Shen Ruliu, who was going back to the house with his things and putting them down, heard his sister calling him, and immediately turned around and walked over, "What's wrong, Xiao Jiu." ”
"Where are all the farm tools at home?"
"It used to be in the small storage room in the main house, but now my grandmother has moved it to the kitchen."
"Okay, sixth brother, you are busy first. I'm going to find out. ”
Coming to the corner of the kitchen, Rujiu found the tools, it seems that he bought a lot of furniture when he bought it, and he was relieved to have something, otherwise everything would be used by Qingfeng to estimate that his master should burn the paper money to him, all of which would be used to wipe his tears and snot.
In addition to the wood needed to build the beams, there is still a lot left, enough for her to make some useful furniture for her family.
I haven't done it for more than a year, and I don't know if I'm rusty.
At first, these tools were a little difficult to use, but as she became more familiar, her movements couldn't help but speed up a lot.
The bed can only be made into the simplest shelf bed, like the carved step bed at this time, there is no need to think about it at all.
Thanks to the master's "cultivation" of her at the beginning, so that she is almost full of life skills, how can she be regarded as an all-round little master.
The stout pieces of wood were sawn into various sizes of wooden planks and strips, which were tied in sorts on the ground.
After all the preparatory processes were completed, she began the official production.
The shelf bed is more troublesome when grinding the board, and it is much easier to assemble and lay the board after the frame column is done.
In addition to the double beds that the elders sleep in, Rujiu has prepared a double wooden bed for his brothers.
When I watched the beds being assembled and placed neatly, I felt a sense of accomplishment in my heart.
Wiping the fine sweat on his forehead, he stopped for a while, added some scrap materials and threw them into the fire, and the excited Rujiu turned the small tool in his hand and worked hard again.
After the cleaning and cleaning work inside and outside the house, everyone found that Xiao Jiu'er was not in sight. If you think about it, I haven't seen anyone since dinner.
"When it was just dark before, Xiao Jiu asked me about the tools, they should be outside the yard."
Shen Ruliu suddenly remembered that there was so much wood left at that time, and he asked her what she was going to do, because no one in the family knew how to do carpentry, and he was a little sorry for the wood that he had worked so hard to transport.
Xiao Jiushen mysteriously said that it was useful, could it be? "I'll look for it."
"Little Liu, wait for me, together." Shen Ruyan was a little uneasy and went out with him.
Shen Ru glanced at each other, and chased them out together.
When a few people found the place where the wood was stacked outside the courtyard, they collectively lost their voices and couldn't speak.
It wasn't until a long time later that it was broken by Shen Ru's shout.
"Xiao Jiu! Are you exaggerating? Don't you want to be so powerful! ”
Jumping over like a monkey, he touched and looked at it, and his face was strange.
"Xiao Jiu, I really admire you so much, sister, is there anything else you can't do?"
This is a little familiar, and it seems that Carefree asked himself this way at the beginning. Rujiu smiled and didn't answer, just continued the movements in his hands.
"Since my brothers are here, I'll help carry the things to the rooms."
"No problem!"
The four of them readily agreed, they were tired and didn't want to move anymore, but they were really happy to see these furniture, especially the wooden bed, and now they finally didn't have to sleep on the rock bed with many layers of straw mats!
When Shen Ruyan and the brothers carried the bed and wooden box back to the courtyard, it naturally attracted the amazement of everyone in the Shen family.
……
"Xiao Jiu'er."
"Second uncle?"
Shen Shanping's whole person looks very elegant, with a strong scholarly temperament, and when he smiles, it will make people feel very comfortable and friendly.
"Our little Jiu'er's craftsmanship is really good."
The big ones have been done for a long time, and now they are making some gadgets, "No, I just know how to make something simple." ”
Picked up the small comb she put aside, although it only had a simple pattern, it was the right size to hold in her hand, smooth and smooth.
A deep meaning flashed in his eyes, and he asked, as if unintentionally, "Does Xiao Jiu'er often do this?" The second uncle saw that you were very skilled. ”
Stopping the movements in his hand, Rujiu raised his head and looked at him with a smile, "What does the second uncle want to know?" ”
