Chapter 015 Remodeling a New Home

On the street, several children in thick cotton clothes are chirping and playing with a lit incense stick in one hand and a firecracker wrapped in red paper in the other. I saw them put the thumb-thick firecrackers on the ground vertically, half-squatting, stretching out their hands holding incense, and carefully lighting the letters on the firecrackers with the light of the burning fire.

"Bang~Tom"

"Whew, I want it too, I want it too"

With a crisp popping sound, several children covered their ears and jumped around.

The adults passing by on the street couldn't help but smile when they saw the cheerful appearance of the children.

At the intersection of Ping'an Fang, several spacious carriages came slowly, followed by several heroic female guards on both sides of the carriage, and the unusual pomp attracted the sideways of the pedestrians on the side of the road.

"Hey, whose carriage is this, so pompous?"

"Well, it looks a little blind, it doesn't seem to be from our workshop."

"Hey, you see, they turned into the West Alley, and there are three families in the West Alley, and now they are all inhabited. I guess it's a relative of some family. ”

"Hey, how fresh is this, how can anyone go to relatives in a big year? I think eighty percent of it belongs to the one in the west, and that one has been empty since Master Wang moved away. ”

At the gate of the workshop, a few residents with New Year's goods in their hands were chattering.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the motorized convoy turned into the west alley, and finally stopped in front of the westernmost house.

"Mama Zhao, we're here"

Lifting the curtain, Wang Qifang leaned out half of her body, and the coachman hurriedly put down the stool and helped the people inside to come down.

"Qi Niang, this place is really good."

Mama Zhao followed Wang Qifang to the door, as early as in the carriage, she kept looking at the surrounding environment through the window. Especially after the carriage drove into Ping'an Fang, she was even more happy to see the sturdy door, the neat streets, the alert Wuhou, and the shops where several families came and went.

"Let's go, let's go in and see"

Wang Qifang handed the key to Qingfeng and asked her to open the door.

When Li Huaien handed over the house to her, there were two people in charge of cleaning in the yard, but Wang Qifang decided not to keep anyone who didn't know the details since the kitchen incident that day. Although this house is not yet occupied, it is a place for their mother and son to live in the future, and there is no room for the slightest sloppiness.

So, she asked for the house, but the person retreated.

"Yes, Second Young Grandma"

Qingfeng took the key, came to the gate neatly, opened the big lock with two clicks, and pushed open the two heavy doors.

At this time, the people behind the carriage also jumped down, and under the leadership of the leading steward, they opened the door of the wagon, and two teams and three groups moved the contents of the carriage down.

"Come on, Master Feng, this is the new house of our second young grandmother," Zhao Erlang After arranging a few small stewards, he led a strong man about thirty years old, followed by Wang Qifang, into the courtyard.

"Well, the yard is quite big, and it has been renovated," Feng Dazhuang is a famous mason in the capital, with more than 30 strong laborers under his hands, and has also taken over many renovation projects of large mansions, and when he saw Wang Qifang's yard today, there was no surprise on his face, but he observed carefully, and when he saw the new tiles and the newly paved cobblestone ground, he said in a certain tone.

"That's right, the house has been renovated, but some places still don't meet the requirements of our second young grandmother, so I invited you to design a renovation plan according to the specific situation of the yard."

Zhao Erlang has been in Beijing for a few months, and the whole person has become completely different from when he first entered the city. I saw that he was wearing a new royal blue robe with large lapels, an apricot yellow cotton coat inside, a belt embroidered with a beaded pattern of birds and beasts around his waist, and a pair of jet-black boots on his feet, looking particularly energetic.

"Well, I've read the drawings of the second young grandmother, it's very detailed," Feng Dazhuang nodded, mentioning the drawing that he didn't know what pen to draw, and the backlog of questions in his heart began to emerge, and he asked casually: "Shopkeeper Zhao, to be honest, the little dry mason has been more than ten years, and I have seen a lot of drawings for building houses, but the drawings drawn by the second young grandmother are still the first time I have seen them, not to mention that the room painted on the drawings is three-dimensional and intuitive, even the pen that draws the drawings is by no means ordinary." It's just that I don't know, what kind of pen does the second young grandmother use? ”

"Hehe, I really don't know this."

Zhao Erlang shook his head, in fact, he had also seen the drawings that Feng Dazhuang said. When the shop was rebuilt, it was the design drawings given by the second young grandmother, and then the craftsmen were asked to build according to the drawings.

At that time, he was also curious, and specially asked his wife, but he was slapped on the back of the head by his mother, and he was reprimanded with a straight face, so he didn't dare to continue to ask.

Now seeing that Feng Dazhuang was a little disappointed, he smiled and said: "Hey, this is not worth anything, you should do your best to do the errand first, if the second young grandmother is satisfied, I will help you ask the second young grandmother."

"The errand is definitely no problem, but now most of the guys have returned to their hometowns, and I only have seven or eight people on my hands now, even if I start work today, I will definitely not be able to finish it before the year."

Feng Dazhuang rubbed his hands and said with some concern.

"That's no problem, today is the twentieth day of the lunar month, there are still ten days before the New Year, you don't have to work until Chinese New Year's Eve, just clean up the barn in the backyard and the dead wood in the back garden." In addition, we have to take advantage of the second young grandmother's time to determine the renovation plan of the main house, and wait for the next year to build. ”

Zhao Erlang waved his hand, signaling him not to worry, the master's family is not an unreasonable person, and he will never let the family work for the New Year.

……

In the main house, in the ear room.

Wang Qifang took advantage of Mama Zhao's wandering around the yard to come to the wall with a mechanism alone, opened the secret grid, took out some jewelry and silver tickets from the space and put them in, then closed the mechanism, and then moved the flower shelf on the side to cover the wall.

Patting the ash on her hand, Wang Qifang nodded with satisfaction, En, strictly following the principle of "eggs can't be put in one basket", she has divided the silver tickets and jewelry in the space into three parts, one is kept with her, one is buried in the hot spring village in Lingxian County, and the last one is hidden here. No matter which one goes wrong, the rest is enough for the four of them to live.

In the courtyard, Mama Zhao looked at each room with a loud voice, and the more she looked, the more satisfied she was with the house. Look, the snow-white walls, the neat bluestone floor, the mahogany furniture, and even the east and west wings have been added with matching furniture.

"Mother, where is the second young grandmother?"

Zhao Erlang led Feng Dazhuang to the weeping flower gate in the inner courtyard, asked him to wait outside first, and he entered the courtyard, and saw his old lady coming out of the east wing room with a smile on her face, hurriedly walked a few steps to stop her, and asked in a low voice.

"What's the matter? Is that the mason coming? ”

Mama Zhao turned her head to look at the door, and sure enough, she saw a gray-brown figure swaying by.

"Well, my son has already led him around the yard, and the materials for repairing the warehouse and backyard have also been brought in, just wait for the second young grandmother's orders, and you can start working."

"Okay, I'll go and invite her here" Mama Zhao nodded, and was about to turn around to go to the main room, but saw Wang Qifang swaying out of the main house, she hurriedly greeted her, "Qi Niang, the people have already moved all the materials in, and the craftsman named Feng Dazhuang is also here, you see?" ”

Wang Qifang stood under the porch, her eyes swept the empty yard casually, when her eyes touched the flower pot under the big tree on the side, her eyes suddenly lit up, right, why did she forget this? At this time, Mama Zhao's words came to her ears, she came back to her senses, and said casually: "Well, call in,"

Feng Dazhuang lowered his head with his hands down, and cautiously followed behind Zhao Erlang and came to the porch of the main house.

In the room, Wang Qifang sat on a chair, through the door, looked at the figure prostrate on the ground, and said softly: "This is Master Feng, I really don't want to invite you here for the New Year." Shopkeeper Zhao, don't forget to seal a red envelope for Master Feng and a few guys later, and Master Feng will give a first-class seal. ”

"Small, small don't dare, thank you for the second young grandmother reward"

Feng Dazhuang gave a reward as soon as he heard that the second young grandmother came up, and knew that he had met a good owner, although he didn't know how much the first-class seal in her mouth was, but it would definitely not be less than a penny, and he kowtowed happily at the moment.

"Master Feng, you have also seen the drawings, you have also seen the yard, you are an expert, I will not say anything superfluous, only emphasize a few points," Wang Qifang tapped his fingers on the table, and said slowly: "The warehouse will be built before the year, it doesn't matter what it looks like, the key is that it is strong and durable, and the materials must be honest." As for the main house, there is no need to move the big place, the key is that the clean house should be rebuilt, how to rebuild, I have indicated it on the drawings, do you have any questions about this. ”

"No," Feng Dazhuang shook his head, although the appearance of the drawings was very strange, but with his professionalism, he was still able to complete it as required.

"Very good, the garden is also the focus of the renovation......"

To be honest, Wang Qifang is still very much looking forward to the renovation of the new house.

In her previous life, she lived in a mansion when she was young, and most of the time she lived in a standard room like a pigeon cage. In a house of more than ten square meters, it is a luxury to put all the furniture, where is there any vacant space to decorate? After coming to Da Zhou, she has stayed in many houses, whether it is Zhuangzi in Qingzhou or the peony garden in Beijing, she doesn't have that kind of home feeling when she lives, so she doesn't spend any effort to decorate.

Only the house under her feet, from the moment she saw it for the first time, there was an inexplicable sense of belonging, after receiving the title deed, this feeling was even stronger, and it also made her eager to completely transform this yard into an ideal home.

……

Princess Jingwei's Mansion.

"Oh, you mean that Wang Qifang sent people to transport a large number of things out of the city yesterday? Have you figured out what it is? Where did the stuff go? ”

Princess Jingwei picked up a piece of palace-like pastry rewarded by her eldest sister, tasted it in small bites, and asked casually.

"Back to the princess, according to the people who were sent, the carriage went in the direction of Lingxian. As for what was on the car, I don't know yet, but my subordinates have already sent someone to follow, and there must be news tomorrow. ”

"Well, keep an eye on it, there is definitely something wrong with this Wang Qifang."

Princess Jingwei smiled coldly, her beautiful eyes were full of cruelty, and the pastries in her hand were crumbled into crumbs by her.

P: A certain Sa suddenly found out sadly, he made a mistake, it seems that the main station is not three days, alas, even this kind of common sense thing can't be figured out, a certain Sa is really faceless, what, today is still two watches, this is the first watch, and there is a watch at night
