Chapter 279: Repairing the House
"When are we moving out?" Now that she has her own mansion, Liu Qingshao doesn't want to continue to live in the General's Mansion.
Although it's good here, there are too many women in the backyard, and Liu Qingshao doesn't want to deal with them for a long time.
It's just that they are all Xiao Yifeng's concubines, and she can't punish them directly.
"That yard hasn't been inhabited for some years, I'm afraid it needs to be renovated!" Xiao Hanyin knew about the mansion, but he didn't look at it in the past, but he remembered that it was a minister's mansion.
However, in the early years, the minister did something wrong that angered the emperor and made him very dissatisfied.
In the end, the emperor directly sent people to raid his house and demoted them all to commoners.
After they saved their lives, they immediately left the imperial city with their families and returned to their hometown.
The house has been uninhabited since.
"You take me over to have a look, I want to find someone to renovate it myself!" Liu Qingshao's eyes lit up.
She thought that the house was ready-made, but she didn't expect it to be an old house that had been abandoned for many years.
However, Liu Qingshao did not dislike it at all, but felt very happy.
The two went to see the mansion together.
The house was uninhabited, so it was overgrown with weeds, and the roof and windows of the rooms needed to be renovated, otherwise there would be no way to live in it.
"Ah Yin, I want to design some things myself and renovate some houses, what do you think?" Liu Qingshao took a look at the layout and was very satisfied.
Although this yard is broken, but the area is very large, the front yard can be cleaned up to plant flowers, as well as rockeries and ponds, at a glance, you can know that the previous owner of this house is taking care of the yard with great care.
It's a pity that once he makes a mistake, these things no longer belong to him.
Accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, staying by the king's side to do things, you must be cautious, if you make a slight mistake, you will lose your life, not to mention, and it will affect your family.
Although the saint is suspicious by nature, he will never kill innocents indiscriminately, and even if the minister of the court violates the law, he will not easily exterminate his family.
This is also one of the reasons why the Xiao Hanyin brothers are willing to do things for them.
If the current saint was a faint king, Xiao Hanyin was afraid that he would have secretly arranged everything and left with them.
Even if the emperor has great power, as long as he sincerely wants to hide, they have a way.
However, Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin are not people who like to escape, even if they lose their freedom because of this, they will not flee easily.
"This will be our home from now on, you can do whatever you want!" Xiao Hanyin naturally would not object to her proposal.
When he was in Nanshui Village, the courtyard was designed by Liu Qingshao himself, and he thought it was very good.
Now, this place is also handed over to Liu Qingshao to decorate, Xiao Hanyin feels that she will definitely give herself a surprise.
Liu Qingshao thought that they would soon be able to have a home that belonged entirely to them.
This mansion, the emperor has already rewarded Xiao Hanyin, if there is no accident, this place will always belong to them, even if Xiao Yifeng comes to the door, he can only be a guest......
She redesigned the layout of the interior according to her own ideas.
During this time, she painted a lot of modern furniture and wanted to put it in after the house was renovated.
These furniture styles are very special and very different from the current furniture.
When she was in Nanshui Village, she wanted to find someone to do it, but they didn't have a lot of money at that time, so Liu Qingshao had no choice but to let people make some simple things.
Now, they no longer need to worry about the silver, and the mansion that the emperor has rewarded them with is very large, which is completely enough for her to perform.
After Xiao Hanyin saw her drawings, he felt that they were very exquisite, and he even put forward his own opinions.
Liu Qingshao made changes one by one according to his meaning, after all, the home belonged to the two of them, so she naturally had to consider Xiao Hanyin's preferences.
She put almost all her mind on the house, and the affairs of the shop and restaurant were completely left to other people......
After a few days, the furniture she asked the craftsman to create had begun to take shape, but the house was still under renovation, so Liu Qingshao was not busy at all and tried to do her best.
The news that the emperor rewarded them with a courtyard soon spread.
Everyone was curious why the emperor would suddenly do this.
After all, their husband and wife are from the General's Mansion and should live in the Mansion.
Previously, Xiao Yifeng was imprisoned by the emperor because of his mistakes, and the heir of the General's Mansion became Xiao Hanyin.
Although his eldest brother was released safely later, he was still the family.
The emperor's current move seems to mean that the general's mansion is afraid that there will be some changes.
Everyone wanted to know what was going on in the General's Mansion......
However, it is about other people's privacy, and it is not easy for them to inquire directly, after all, Xiao Hanyin and Xiao Hanchen, two brothers, are now quite important to the emperor.
This incident aroused everyone's curiosity, but it did not have much impact on Liu Qingshao and Xiao Hanyin.
They had long been unconcerned about the rumors outside.
Ever since they got married, rumors about them have often circulated in the Imperial City, and they have become accustomed to it.
Some of the modern furniture designed by Liu Qingshao quickly attracted the attention of many people.
None of them had ever seen anything before, and they just thought it was new and interesting.
Some people can't help but be amazed after fully understanding their use. vp
They had never thought of such a delicate and practical thing, but Liu Qingshao ordered the craftsman to make it, and his mind was really too clever......
"Mrs. Xiao, I don't know if these things you came up with will be sold in the shop in the future?" Some people who often go to Liu Qingshao's shop to buy things and have never been acquainted with her secretly asked in private.
She really wanted to buy a set and put it in her yard.
Most of the people in the imperial city are not short of silver, so when they see the things designed by Liu Qingshao, they all want it.
After all, since they can have something that can make their daily life more comfortable, how can they miss it.
Liu Qingshao was not surprised by her proposal, because when she asked someone to make something, she guessed that someone would want it.
However, she never intended to sell them.
"I'm sorry, I ordered someone to build them for my own use, and I don't plan to sell them in the shop!" Liu Qingshao's business is very large, and now the things in her shop have become the object of being sought after by others.
However, Liu Qingshao has her own principles for doing things, and once it is something she decides, she cannot change it.
"It's a shame, I love the furniture!" There was a hint of disappointment in the lady's eyes.
Such delicate and beautiful furniture, if placed in her own yard, will definitely make her feel happy.
Liu Qingshao could see that these people were reluctant to give up on this.
However, not only was she unwilling to do this, but even Xiao Hanyin would not agree.
In the end, Liu Qingshao still rejected them.
After Xiao Hanyin learned about this, he was in a good mood.
These things are all the hard work of him and Liu Qingshao, and they are specially prepared for them.
Xiao Hanyin doesn't like others to use the same things as himself.
He had mentioned this matter to Liu Qingshao a long time ago.
"The furniture is dead, why do you care so much?" Liu Qingshao didn't feel anything wrong with what he did, but she still couldn't help but want to tease him.
"I feel sick at the thought of others using the same things as we do!" Xiao Hanyin's eyes darkened.
"Don't worry, I've already rejected them!" His words resonated with Liu Qingshao.
They actually have feelings for the things they designed, and this is their home after they get married, and the two are very concerned about it.
The furnishings in the house were all arranged by Liu Qingshao himself with the maid, and the things in it were also made by themselves by craftsmen, and there were no others at home.
Xiao Hanyin wanted this uniqueness, and he wanted everything here to be the most special.
"In the future, if you want to sell these things, you can only sell other styles!" Xiao Hanyin knew that she liked to do business, and these things were really good, and there would be many people who wanted them in the future.
It is impossible for Liu Qingshao to refuse all the time, after all, this is a great business opportunity.
However, Xiao Hanyin has his own insistence, as long as other people's homes are not exactly the same as what they use, he can accept it.
"I don't like people using the same style as us!" Liu Qingshao blinked.
Why do people like to pursue the only thing, isn't it because they don't want others to have the same thing as themselves?
Liu Qingshao was completely conniving at Xiao Hanyin's request.
Therefore, when someone came to the door a few days later, Liu Qingshao did not continue to refuse, but told them that he would order someone to make some other styles of furniture later.
Although everyone really wanted a set of furniture that was exactly the same as the one she had just made.
However, she felt that with her whimsy, she might be able to make better things later.
So, everyone waited quietly, wanting to see if what she had made afterwards was as beautiful and practical as these.
Liu Qingshao guessed their thoughts, so she didn't mind it at all.
After all, if she wanted someone to buy what she made, she had to put her mind to it.
Subsequently, Liu Qingshao began to redesign a series of furniture and ordered people to build them.
She had seen a lot of the intricate furniture in modern times.
Almost all of the furniture was made of wood, and there were different styles......
After Liu Qingshao drew the design drawing, she directly handed it over to others to be responsible.
She had so many things to do that it was impossible for her to do everything herself, not to mention that creating furniture was something that craftsmen were good at.
Xiao Han saw that she was busy with business, and he didn't interfere, after all, she had been like this since he met Liu Qingshao.
In the past two days, nothing has happened in the court, so Xiao Hanyin put his mind on the mansion.
Since they are all places where they will live in the future, how can Liu Qingshao be the only one who cares......
In order to free up more energy for her to focus on business, Xiao Hanyin took over the matter of checking the progress of the yard repair alone.
He and Liu Qingshao both hoped that the house would be repaired as soon as possible, and then they would be able to put the furniture and decorations they had bought into it.
Seeing that Xiao Yifeng's situation is getting better day by day, Xiao Hanyin has no waves in his heart.
Right now, he's thinking about moving.
Half a month later, their house was almost renovated, and Xiao Yifeng had already sobered up at this time.
However, his body is too weak and needs to be well recuperated......
