"You don't have to be here, you can find another room." Shen Chuhan looked at his room and said.

"It doesn't matter, if you succeed, you'll be the first person to have a fire kang." Xu Ruoxue said with a grin.

Shen Chuhan was a little worried: "The kang can't be built in a day or two, and it will disturb your rest." ”

"In order to get through this winter warmly, it's okay to take two days off." Xu Ruoxue said indifferently.

"Then ......" Shen Chuhan hesitated for a moment on his face, "There is also a side room in my courtyard, you can go there to live temporarily." ”

Xu Ruoxue thought about it and thought it was feasible, so she nodded: "Okay, then we will be neighbors." ”

"Hmm." Shen Chuhan replied softly, and a flash of joy flashed in his eyes.

The two discussed harmoniously and soon came up with a plan.

Next.

After breakfast, Xu Ruoxue went with Shen Chuhan to prepare the materials for the pankang.

Shen Churan saw that the courtyard was busy with life, so he immediately stepped forward and asked, "Sister Xue'er, what are you doing here?" How do you get so many red bricks back? ”

Xu Ruoxue was commanding this kind of person, and when she saw Shen Churan behind her, she hurriedly walked over: "Fifth brother, I'm on the kang!" ”

"Pankang?" Shen Churan hadn't heard of it, and looked at her with a confused expression.

I saw Xu Ruoxue take out the drawings and gestured: "This is this thing, after getting it out, the room will be warm!" ”

"Really?" Shen Churan looked surprised, "This thing is unusual!" ”

"You'll know how amazing it is when you make it." Xu Ruoxue said with a smile.

After Shen Churan learned what the kang was, he couldn't help but follow his heart.

Soon, the entire General's Mansion knew about Xu Ruoxue's desire to pan kang, and they all supported her very much.

After a while, the butler came to the room with a group of workers.

Xu Ruoxue handed all the sketches in her hand to the housekeeper: "Butler, this is the structural diagram of the fire kang, you take people to hurry up the time, remember that the location of ventilation is very important." ”

The housekeeper handed the drawings to a worker behind him: "Miss, don't worry." ”

Xu Ruoxue was in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Okay, the matter of the pankang here will be handed over to the housekeeper, the red bricks are not enough, and the stone bricks can also be used." ”

After explaining the matter of the housekeeper's pankang, Xu Ruoxue hurriedly ran to Lu Wansu's residence.

"Mother, today I will take someone to make a kang in the house, it may be a little noisy."

After Xu Ruoxue finished speaking, Lu Wansu said with a smile: "It's okay, your godmother has already come to tell me just now, I will move to her yard for a while and live for a while, and when you finish it, it will not be too late for me to come back." ”

After explaining Lu Wansu's affairs, Xu Ruoxue hurriedly went to find Shen Chuhan again.

The skills of the pankang are not difficult, in addition to the insulation material, the ventilation of the bottom of the kang is the most important, and she has to do what she can do quickly.

"Don't panic when you do things, no matter how urgent you are, you have to take it step by step!" Shen Chuhan saw the anxiety of the snow.

"I understand, but it's going to snow heavily in Kyoto, and we won't be afraid of freezing with the ondol!" Xu Ruoxue said with a smile.

The two were in the courtyard discussing how to speed up the progress.

Shen Churan called Shen Chulan with an excited face, and the two of them worked with the mud together.

Xu Ruoxue was a little puzzled: "Why are you here?" ”

Shen Churan said a little embarrassed: "I'm not curious, so come and have a look." ”

Shen Chulan said with a smile: "I'm also curious about what you guys will come up with!" ”

After Xu Ruoxue and Shen Chuhan, they glanced at each other.

Xu Ruoxue felt that her hands were also very novel, so she called Shen Chuhan: "Sixth brother, let's be together!" ”

Shen Chuhan's unsmiling handsome face was a little cracked, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Do you like it?" ”

"Try it?" Like snow, the mason's shovel greeted Shen Chuhan seriously.

Shen Chuhan's expression froze, and then he didn't make a sound, walked to the side and picked up a shovel and got it up with Xu Ruoxue.

"Sixth brother, you have good skills!" Xu Ruoxue looked at the smooth mud surface and praised loudly.

When Shen Chulan heard this, she hurriedly came over to look at the mud surface that Shen Chuhan had smeared, and laughed: "I didn't expect that the sixth child would still have this skill, and he could be a mason in the future." ”

Shen Chuhan glanced at him faintly, and Shen Chulan was instantly silenced: "Just kidding, haha......"

After speaking, he slipped back to Shen Churan's side, honestly and muddy.

Seeing this, Xu Ruoxue couldn't help but laugh and said, "Fourth brother is so afraid of you?" ”

"Get to work, shut up!" Shen Chuhan kept his face calm and continued the movements in his hands.

Xu Ruoxue gestured at the edge of her mouth, pursed her lips tightly and winked at him.

Shen Chuhan turned his face slightly, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Because of the lack of experience, coupled with the fact that the weather is a little cold and the air humidity is high, the fire kang has been on for half a month.

Under the concerted efforts of everyone and the very efficient command of Lifelike Snow, a wide, thick and beautiful fire kang was prepared.

"That's it?" After the kang was really prepared, Shen Churan and the others had a sense of accomplishment, they really didn't expect that this kang and the farmer's stove could be connected to it to play a good role in keeping warm, why didn't anyone think of doing this before.

Xu Ruoxue excitedly announced to everyone: "It's a success!" ”

Shen Chuhan stood beside her and stared at the smile on Xu Ruoxue's face, and he was in a very good mood.

Shen Churan felt the charm of the fire kang with his hand, and his heart was about to move: "I really want to get one." ”

"Don't worry, we'll get one in the house when the time comes." With a wave of her hand, her face was full of joy.

"Let's burn some firewood!" Xu Ruoxue asked the next person to get a few clean meadows and spread them on the kang.

Xu Ruoxue saw that there was a lot of room in front of the kang at that time, so she divided a place next to it, and built a tea table for boiling tea not far from the kang bed.

At this time, a delicate large teapot was placed on the tea table, firewood was burned underneath, the tea was bubbling, and the fire kang on the side began to become warm, and after a while, the whole room was hot.

"Wonderful, so wonderful!"

Everyone sat around and praised this fire kang one after another.

The servant made a good cup of tea for them, and after working for most of the day, it was a great joy in life to sit in this warm room and drink a cup of fragrant tea.

Shen Churan looked at everyone excitedly: "How?" This is the best tea in the palace, and it is not very easy to drink! ”

"The entrance is slightly bitter, the taste is sweet, and the throat is mellow, it is indeed a good tea!" Lifelike Snow exclaimed without hesitation.

"Yes, yes, it's a tea drinker!" Shen Churan laughed.

"I can't imagine that one day I will be able to learn how to pan kang!" Shen Chulan felt a little incredible.

Shen Churan smiled and took a sip of tea: "Who said it wasn't." ”

In the past two days, Shen Chuhan has followed Xu Ruoxue to Pan Kang, and also learned some of Pan Kang's skills.

A few people didn't dislike the bitterness and tiredness, nor did they feel dirty, and they didn't think that there was anything to be ashamed of the sons of the family, but they were very motivated and interested in learning.

When Shen Zong heard that the kang plate was ready, he immediately brought someone over.

Looking at the steaming tea table and sitting in the warm room, most of the chill on his body instantly dissipated.

"Xue'er is very powerful, this fire kang is really unusual!" Shen Zong looked at Xu Ruoxue with a loving expression.

"It's just some insect carving skills." Smile like a snowy smile.

Then he said, "This time it was a success, and before the heavy snowfall, Fuchu can use all of it." ”

Shen Zong thought a little more, began to think in his heart, and then spoke: "If this fire kang spreads among the people, it can benefit many people!" ”

"The craft of pankang is not difficult to learn, I have already put the drawings and two people who have learned to pankang." Xu Ruoxue said immediately.

"That's a good thing." Shen Zong suddenly stood up happily.

Shen Zong said that he was about to go out: "I'll go to the Ministry of Industry to talk about this matter, and tomorrow I will ask him to post an announcement to encourage the people to learn Pankang, and this will be considered a livelihood in the future." ”

Shen Chuhan looked at her with burning eyes: "Don't worry, the people will remember your goodness!" ”

"Sixth brother, don't put a high hat on me, besides, this kang was also thought up by us together." Xu Ruoxue said with a smile.

Shen Chuhan didn't say anything and stayed by her side quietly.

Shen Chulan and Shen Churan were noisy and unhappy.

Early the next morning.

Xu Ruoxue came to Xu Yan's courtyard with Ling Shuang and accompanied her to talk to Lu Wansu.

Xu Yuan naturally knew what happened yesterday.

"Godmother, I plan to put a kang on the stove in our house, so that we don't have to be afraid of the cold in winter."

"Okay." Xu Yan looked pleased, "It's rare that you can think of so much, or Wansu teaches it well." ”

"It's all on her own, I don't know about it." Lu Wansu hurriedly waved her hand.

Xu Ruoxue looked shy, and said coquettishly: "It's just a trivial matter." ”

Lu Wansu thought about it and felt that her daughter was now more and more in mind, so she didn't care about her.

Xu Ruoxue sat next to the two of them and heard Xu Yan talk about taking care of the shop.

So, Xu Ruoxue listened quietly, and from time to time she said some of her own opinions.

Xu Yuan kept clapping her hands and said, "Xue'er's idea is very good, could it be that you are still a business wizard?" ”

"Godmother, you've won the prize." Xu Ruoxue said humbly, "Just saying it casually is not necessarily a good way." ”

Xu Yuan had also learned how to take care of the shop before getting married, but in the end, she had a good temperament, and she could only say that she was more than successful and had insufficient breakthroughs on the way to business.

Over the years, Shen Chufan has been helping him, which has made it much easier.

Now that I see the vivid snow, it can almost be said that it can be understood at one point, and my heart is suddenly overjoyed.

Seeing Xu Yan's overjoyed look, Xu Ruoxue couldn't help asking, "Why is my godmother so happy?" ”

Xu Yan directly said her difficulties: "Although your second brother is good at business, he is not interested in this, he just uses it to pass the time, and in most cases I come alone, so I am really busy." ”

"Are you interested?"
