Chapter 165: The Sun Room
Seeing Mrs. Zeng standing in the courtyard looking at those camellia trees in a daze, Chen Qianshu instantly understood her feelings. He remembered very well that at that time, she always disliked his father for not doing his job.
It's just that it's never too late to understand, because these things are inherently valuable, and they won't stop being precious just because you don't understand them.
Since his father gave him the camellia flowers in the yard, he now has to shoulder the responsibility of passing them on to his children. It's just that the lady's stomach hasn't moved, and there is no way to do it, so I can only continue to wait.
I don't know if it's because he's too weak.
Ye Feng didn't know this, because in his eyes, a flower and a tree were either buildable materials or wild things, and he rarely integrated the feelings of Chen Qianshu's family into it.
He just wants to make money.
In this way, there is a lot less emotional bonding, and it is difficult to have a scene where you are reluctant to sell it after cultivating a pot of stunning beauty.
The next day, there was nothing to do at home, Ye Feng thought about resting at home for a day, but before noon, Chen Qianshan's mother Liu walked in with a smile.
Seeing that Ye was teasing his two sons, Liu walked over with a smile, looked at this, teased that, and only felt very cute. Ye Shi saw that she was sweating, so he let her into the house and sit, and gave her a cup of tea to put aside to cool.
The Ye family knew in his heart that this Liu family was a typical person who did nothing to ascend the Three Treasures Palace. It's not that she's powerful, but their family has always been like this, they're used to being alone, and there are very few people in the village who make friends with them. There must be something going on with her coming this time.
It's just that she doesn't take the initiative to mention it, and Ye Shi doesn't want to ask, so she pretends that she doesn't know anything, anyway, if there is something urgent, she will naturally say it. And now she is a relative, her sister-in-law is still her daughter-in-law, and the Ye family naturally does not dare to snub her.
After playing with the two children for a while, and waiting for the tea to be cold, Liu hurriedly took a sip, felt that the temperature was just right, and drank the tea in one go.
Qianyu obediently poured her full again.
Seeing this, Liu said: "It's not that I praise your family for a thousand words, you look at this child, he is quiet, sensible and obedient, and he will become a big girl." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the two children lying on the mat in the stroller and said, "To say that your blessing is really incomparable to ordinary people." There are two daughters who are like flowers, and now they have two sons, don't you know, I often hear them say that they envy you. ”
In this regard, Ye Shi only said modestly: "What is blessed or not, it is about to come to the bitter end." You know all too well what my early years were like. However, Qianyu, this child is really obedient, and he has helped me do a lot of things during my confinement. I don't know what I would do without her. ”
Before, during Ye's confinement, many things such as washing underwear or something, Chen Jixing was inconvenient to interfere with, and it was taboo in the end. A thousand words are small, and they are used to not knowing anything. Let her wash it, naturally it can't be cleaned.
In the end, these jobs were contracted by Qianyu.
Liu Shi continued: "It's not, or how to say that the girl is intimate." Boys are naughty, it's good not to cause trouble. ”
"Where did you go, on such a hot day, and you don't rest at home?" Seeing that Liu had not been able to get to the point, Ye began to feel a little anxious. The villagers all know about Liu's problem, and sometimes let her report a letter, and she can sit in someone's house for a long time without saying a word.
Anyway, I like to twist and turn, and don't get to the point.
Hearing this, Liu said: "The ...... of the third family Doesn't your sister have a body, I don't know what's going on these days, I can't eat anything, and I vomit something, and I've lost weight just by looking at it. The boy in Qianshan was very anxious, and I saw that he was in a hurry, so I went to the city this morning to buy some cold cakes while the weather was cold. I just sent it, and it looks quite appetizing, but I ate a lot. ”
Ye said: "That girl is indeed squeamish. I used to eat Liuyunxuan's roast chicken and longevity fruit pastry, but after eating it a few times, I said that I was tired of eating. That is, you are willing to give her food, and if you want to change to someone else, I will see what she does. If you want to say how many little daughters-in-law have given birth to children in the village over the years, there are also vomits in the first few months, but I have never seen someone as squeamish as her. ”
If you want to scold, you naturally have to scold your own family. Besides, it also praised Liu, which shows that her mother-in-law does not grind her daughter-in-law and is a kind-hearted person. But Ye Ermei is really excessive. Once, in the middle of the night, he yelled to eat roast chicken, so that Chen Qianshan waited until dawn and immediately went into the city to buy it for her.
She was fine, but when she bought it back, she said she had no appetite again. The Ye family knew about this matter, and the Liu family naturally knew about it.
"It's squeamish, it's squeamish, this baby, maybe it's a kid." As soon as Liu was happy, he spoke a little thoughtlessly. I don't know if I forgot the relationship between Ye and Ye Ermei, or if I wanted to hug my grandson too much.
Just now I said that my daughter is intimate, why is she so happy when I talk about my son now, Ye thought in his heart.
Seeing that Ye didn't speak, Liu noticed that he was talking a little too directly, so he quickly remedied: "By the way, I came here today because I have something to tell you." Look at me, patronizing and chatting, I forgot about business. ”
Isn't this your usual style, Ye Shi thought, but asked seriously, "What's the matter?" Just say it. ”
Hearing this, Liu said: "When I passed by Zhenbao Zhai today, I was pulled by a woman, and later I learned that she was the new shopkeeper of Zhenbao Zhai. It was said that a friend of Mrs. Zhixian in the capital sent some things to put in their store yesterday, but this thing was named to Ye Feng, the child. She learned that Ye Feng lived in Chenjia Village through inquiry, so she asked me to bring a letter back and let you go and get it back when you are free. ”
"When did you meet the shopkeeper?" Ye Shi Qi Dao. Although she was also interested in what it was. came from the capital, I think it was brought over by the kid from Yinping.
Last time, I added makeup to Ye Ermei, I don't know what it will be this time.
Liu said: "When your second sister and Qianshan got married, didn't I go to Zhenbaozhai to buy a pair of silver bracelets?" In addition, I thought that the fourth child was going to get married, so I went again and bought a one-to-one identical one. This mother can't be partial, I bought the same ...... for their brothers."
Ye Shi saw that she was talking endlessly, so he said: "Then I really thank you for making a special trip to inform us, and we will go to the city tomorrow to get it back." Is it called Jumbo Zhai? ”
Ye naturally knows about Zhenbao Zhai, and the gold bracelet worn by the baby she gave to her last time Lin gave birth to her son was produced by Zhenbao Zhai. It seems that the Liu family is indeed doing well now.
Those who can go in and out of Zhenbaozhai to buy jewelry, there are not a few families in the village.
Yao Wushuang has been working hard since he took office, and he has almost learned the set of Ye Shopkeeper at home, and he is very attentive to every customer. She can remember all the customers like Liu, who have been there two or three times, and I have to say that it is amazing.
learned that she was from Chenjia Village, so he asked her to give Ye Feng a message by the way. To say that she didn't know how to contact Ye Feng at all, except for finding the villagers of Chenjia Village to bring a message. Gu Xixi is also very strange, after getting this news, he doesn't look interested at all.
That's fine, the key is that the face is still a little bad.
Liu sat for a while, talked a few more baskets, and ate some pastries, and then left happily.
At noon, Ye said to Ye Feng: "Today, your Aunt Liu came over to bring a message for Zhenbao Zhai, saying that your friend in the capital brought you what you want and put it in Zhenbao Zhai." When did you have friends in Beijing? I've never heard you talk about it. Isn't that yinping? ”
Ye Feng was a little excited when he heard it, it seemed that he had bought something that he had helped buy with the help of Yinping. Then he smiled and said: "Sister, this person you also know, it is Yinping who was with me in the Nameless Temple before. Didn't he find his mother in the bazaar, so he followed her back to the capital. ”
Hearing this, Ye's gossip heart suddenly rose, and he said curiously: "Oh, I remember, it's that skinny child who doesn't eat meat." That's really a blessing to him, it's not easy to find his father and mother. ”
"Yes, I heard that his mother almost ran all over the country for him, and it took him eleven years to find it." Ye Feng said with emotion.
Ye Shi listened and said: "Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, this child is a piece of meat that fell from his mother's body, no matter how old he grows, he is a child in the eyes of his parents." If you can't find it, I'm afraid you won't be at peace for the rest of your life. ”
Ye Feng saw that Ye Shi was a little emotional, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Sister, do you guess what I bought for me with Yinping?" ”
At this time, as soon as the two sisters Qianyu and Qianyan entered the door, they heard Ye Feng asking questions, so without waiting for Ye to speak, Qianyan said: "I guess it's food, a lot of delicious food." ”
Hearing this, Ye Shi and Ye Feng all laughed.
When everyone stopped laughing, Ye Feng said, "You, you know how to eat." Besides, isn't there a shortage of food at home? It's not for food, I asked him to buy me some glass. ”
Hearing this, Ye Shi said in surprise: "Liuli? What do you buy glass for? I've heard people in the city say that only those rich families can use it, and it is said that it is not cheap. ”
Even Chen Jixing was a little interested now.
When he first built a new house, seeing that his family was so heroic, a craftsman asked him if he wanted to buy a few pieces of glass to install on the roof of each house, so that it would be convenient to transmit light. As a result, Chen Jixing refused without thinking about it, just because it was too expensive and it was not easy to find.
It's good now, Ye Feng actually asked someone to buy it for him from the capital. There was still a lot of tone, so he was also a little curious, what Ye Feng was going to do with these glasses.
Ye Feng didn't sell it, so he said directly to Ye's family: "Sister, do you remember when we built that shed next door, I said that I wanted to build a sun room?" ”
As soon as Ye Feng said this, Ye Shi left and thought about it, and at that time, Ye Feng said yearningly, when he had silver, he would buy some glass and build a big sun room.
According to Ye Feng, the walls and roof of this sunroom are made of glass, so that the light can shine in in winter, the plants can grow better, and it is warmer to read and drink tea inside.
Thinking of this, Ye Shi said: "So do you plan to use those colored glasses to build a sun room?" Well, I want to see what it looks like when it's built. ”
In this regard, Chen Jixing is also very curious, he thinks further, that is, since the sun room is so warm, does it mean that some out-of-season vegetables can also be planted in winter?
Thinking of this, Chen Jixing said with some hesitation: "Is the sun room you said airtight all around?" In Chen Jixing's view, such a house can maintain the temperature.
If it's windy, it's not warm.
Hearing this, Ye Feng said: "Well, that's the case in theory, but you can just open a window on the wall." ”
Hearing this, Chen Jixing said: "Then if you plant some vegetables in spring and summer in winter, is it okay?" ”
After speaking, he looked at Ye Feng hopefully, hoping that his answer would be yes.
"I can't guarantee the vegetables in the summer, but the vegetables that can only be grown in the spring and autumn can be grown. If the temperature is not enough, you can put a few braziers in it, and then it will definitely work. Ye Feng said.
Chen Jixing's words made Ye Feng have to admire, he just wanted to plant some flowers and bonsai to sell, Chen Jixing had already thought of using it as a greenhouse and planting some greenhouse vegetables.
"Brother-in-law, you reminded me that when the time comes, we can grow some vegetables such as peppers and lettuce, and when they are ripe, we can take them to the city to sell them before the Chinese New Year, or sell them to Boss Wang of Liuyunxuan, and we can definitely make a lot of money."
Chen Jixing was so happy that he began to look forward to winter, although it was still early summer, and it was still early in winter. At the very least, after this year's peanut harvest.
The next day, Chen Jixing volunteered to take Chen Qianshan's ox cart with Ye Feng to the city, first went everywhere to buy some pastries, tea, braised pork and other foods that could not be made at home, Chen Qianshan naturally bought some exquisite food for Ye Ermei, and then, the three of them sat and walked towards Zhenbao Zhai.
At this time, the sun is fierce, but the inside of Jumbo Zhai is cool and cool. Ye Fengzheng felt strange, and when he got closer, he found that Zhenbao Zhai was a real local tyrant, and there were several pots of ice on the table in the store.
After entering the store, Chen Qianshan and Chen Jixing were a little uncomfortable, after all, it was magnificent, and there was a faint fragrance, which smelled very good, and they suddenly felt that their shoes were a little dirty.
Ye Feng was even more vigilant, more than a year ago, he just came here to find an expert to identify the origin of the jade on his body, so he inexplicably quarreled with a half-sized man.
He hasn't been here since.
If he hadn't come to fetch the glass today, he wouldn't have come here. In Ye Feng's heart, with this level of service, the shopkeeper of this store is estimated to be no better.
It's a pity that Kang's only knows Wu Damiang and Zhenbao Zhai people in Qingshan County, Wu Damiang has many things there, and there are many people, this glass is precious, no matter how you look at it, Zhenbao Zhai is the best choice.
Ye Feng made up his mind, took the glass and left after a while, just thank you a few words of thanks. If something really happens, then you can't blame him, anyway, he deliberately kept a low profile.
Anyway, he owes Yin Ping and Kang's favors, not Zhenbaozhai's. It's best if the other party offers to give a little storage fee, so that it is perfect and does not owe each other.
Yao Wushuang was sitting there checking the trading situation in the past few days. As the weather gradually warmed up, people didn't bother to go out, and even the business in the shops was a little worse. However, there is no way around it.
Seeing Ye Feng and the three big men coming in, and seeing Chen Jixing and Chen Qianshan looking uncomfortable, he stood up and asked Chen Chen Qianshan, "This little brother, do you need to buy jewelry for your sweetheart?" ”
Originally, she wanted to ask the other party directly if he was from Chenjia Village, but after thinking about it, this glass is also a rare thing, and Mrs. Kang sent a lot of it this time. Seeing the shape, it is all a piece of large glass, which can be called a fine product.
It wouldn't be good if she was accidentally taken by someone, so she changed her words temporarily. Anyway, at Chen Qianshan's age, it's not too much to ask such a question.
Hearing this, Chen Qianshan was a little embarrassed and hurriedly waved his hand. Seeing this, Ye Feng stepped forward and said: "Shopkeeper, we are from Chenjia Village, my name is Ye Feng, these two are my brothers-in-law, we are here to pick up the goods." ”
When he first entered the store, Ye Feng saw Yao Wushuang reading the account book there, and there was an abacus in front of him, so he felt that she might be the shopkeeper of this treasure house. And the things sold here are all used by women, and it is also very suitable for Yao Wushuang to be the shopkeeper.
Although he didn't know how Ye Feng guessed that he was the shopkeeper, Yao Wushuang said, "For the sake of safety, tell me where you brought this goods from, and who brought it to you?" ”
Hearing Ye Feng's name, Yao Wushuang had an extra heart and continued to ask questions that needed to be checked.
Seeing Yao Wushuang being so cautious, Ye Feng didn't mind, and replied without humility or arrogance: "This is what my friend Yin Ping brought to me from the capital, and his mother's surname is Kang." By the way, it's likely to be glass inside. ”
Seeing that everything could be matched, Yao Wushuang said: "That's right, you all come with me, speaking of which, there are still a lot of colored glasses, you'd better call a car, otherwise, it's not easy to get away." ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng and Chen Jixing were a little excited, since there were many of them, they could build a big sun room. In addition to planting flowers, Chen Jixing can grow some out-of-season vegetables.
When he got these glasses, Ye Feng was even more excited, these glasses were not the size of tiles as Ye Feng imagined, but about a meter square. Although it is still wrapped in paper at the moment, you can't see the true face, but even if the purity is not enough, it is really a fine product.
So, Chen Jixing carried two pieces at a time, Ye Feng and Chen Qianshan carried two pieces at a time, moved more than ten times, and finally put all the glass on the ox cart.
After moving, Ye Feng said some words of thanks to Yao Wushuang again, because today was really going very well. I don't know why I thought of that unreasonable kid again, and my heart was expelled because I offended someone again.
Actually, Ke Dao is out socializing at the moment. Since Zhenbao Zhai was framed by Tang Xiang and the two brothers, Ke Guide has matured a lot all of a sudden. Especially now that Shopkeeper Ye is not there, he feels that he has lost his support, and he will follow Gu Bo out to discuss business whenever he has the opportunity.
Yao Wushuang saw that Ye Feng was young, but he was very disciplined, and he also looked at it a few times. Finally, Ye Feng greeted Yao Wushuang with a smile before leaving. What he didn't know was that this somewhat capable female shopkeeper in his mind would be his relative in the future.
Or to put it more bluntly, stepmother.
Because of the carload of glass, Chen Qianshan walked very slowly. Thinking of the expression he had when he just knew that these were glasses and a piece was worth a lot of silver, Ye Feng felt funny.
Chen Jixing couldn't wait to go home after all, and proposed to take it apart and take a look. In fact, Ye Feng also wanted to see what the glass in this time and space looked like and how transparent it was. Thinking of this, he and Chen Jixing picked up the most faceted piece and spread it on the legs of the two, and then carefully dismantled the paper.
When the whole piece of glass appeared in front of the two of them, both Ye Feng and Chen Jixing felt that their breathing was stagnant, just because this glass was really beautiful. Although the transparency is not high, it can still transmit light. The key is that these glasses are polished extremely smooth, and the thickness is also good, it seems that this time Yinping is a bloody investment.
It stands to reason that Ye Feng has seen modern transparent glass windows, and it is not rare to see such quality glass, but this is in this time and space. He's been here for so long, and he's never seen a glass product. To be honest, it really made him feel a little back to the modern age. As for Chen Jixing, he had never seen Liuli, but now he was holding such a large piece, and he was so excited.
Actually, this matter has nothing to do with Yin Ping, because after he returned home, he began to enjoy happiness, and he didn't have to worry about anything, and someone else made it safe.
But only for a while.
Now, as the only heir of the Yin family's generation, he follows Yin Liren out every day to socialize and see the world, or inspect his own property and learn the skills of housekeepers, and he is very busy.
The one who received Ye Feng's letter was Kang's.
Ever since Yin Ping was found, Kang had been worried about how to reward Ye Feng. After all, Ye Feng did her a great favor. If it weren't for Ye Feng, the mother and son might not know when they would be able to meet.
Therefore, after receiving Ye Feng's letter of help, Kang's acted without saying a word, entrusted his relationship in the capital, and spent a lot of money to gather these high-quality glasses.
After returning home, when all the glass was dismantled, both adults and children began to marvel that there were such beautiful materials in the world.
Now that the materials are available, how and where to build them is a bigger question.
Originally, Ye Feng thought that the glaze was too precious, so he bought another piece of land directly next to the new house, with bricks for the walls and general tiles for the roof, these glasses were just used for decoration, anyway, they could penetrate the light, which was equivalent to the house or a brick structure, but the walls and roofs on all sides used more glaze.
However, then it occurred to me that if someone didn't like it, or if some child was naughty and accidentally threw a few rocks at it, it would really be the end.
Yin Ping helped this time, but he was too embarrassed to ask for a second time.
Immediately, Ye Feng wanted to build his sun room in the backyard, after all, the backyard was in his own place, and outsiders couldn't get in, so he could basically put an end to the possibility of being stoned. However, Chen Jixing immediately objected, saying that the backyard is cloudy even in summer, and there is a mountain facing it, which will block a lot of sunlight, which is not practical at all.
Looking at the large courtyard left for drying grain at the entrance, Ye Feng felt that he suddenly had an idea. Anyway, now there are ten acres of land at home, and the grain planted is not much, and although the land in the backyard faces the mountain, it does not affect the drying of grain.
If you use this piece of land in the yard to build a sun room, as soon as you come to your own house, as long as you lock the door, others will not be able to see it. Second, it is convenient to grow flowers and vegetables, and you don't need to run around.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng said, "How about we build a sunroom here?" ”
