Chapter 193: Laying the Concrete Floor
Gao Shouwang bought the cement and river sand back, and the tractor directly unloaded the things at the Xing'anling factory site, so Gao Mingcheng pushed the flatbed truck and went there to load the goods.
He asked Gao Shouwang to help buy cement and river sand, which was convenient and cheaper to buy together.
He pushed a cart full of things and easily returned to Gaojia Village, and when he passed by the old village, he first carried a few bags of cement and river sand to his parents' house, saying that they would lay cement on the kitchen to the toilet.
This is where his grandmother wrestles next winter.
He couldn't keep watch over his grandmother all the time, but there were some things he was willing to do.
If fate is destined for Grandma Gao to die because of wrestling, then she can wrestle even on flat ground.
But to do or not to do, Gao Mingcheng's heart has different feelings, we sometimes do something, not to pursue a certain result, but simply because of a certain need in our heart.
For example, helping others, such as appearing in front of others, such as being a good teacher, these all get some emotional value.
Gao Mingcheng knew that Grandma Gao would die because of wrestling next year, so if he didn't do it, he would have a bad conscience, and if he did, he would be worthy of his heart.
"What kind of ground is laid at this time? Your father said that after saving up for a few more years, he plans to tear down this house and build a new two-story building! Luo Xiaohua said, reluctant to spend effort to lay the cement floor.
At this time, the concrete floor is laid, and when the time comes to tear down and rebuild the house, the cement floor is wasted again!
In my previous life, it was precisely for this reason that even though the road from the kitchen to the toilet was very bad, and it was slippery and difficult to walk on a rainy day, the family still did not pave the floor.
There was a small two-story building built in the back, but so what? Grandma Gao, who has suffered all her life, did not live for a day at all.
She suffered all her life, and died in agony because she broke her bone for a long time before she died.
Gao Mingcheng knew that he couldn't fuck it, so he looked at his father Gao Yuanjian and said: "That part of the road is usually fine, but when it rains, let alone grandma, even if we walk, it is easy to slip and fall." Older people are most afraid of wrestling, so it's better to lay cement first. ”
"I sent this cement and river sand, Dad, it took you two days to pave that section of the road."
Gao Yuanjian didn't want to trouble, and thought that in a few years, when he rebuilt the house, he would do it in one step.
I just heard Gao Mingcheng mention Grandma Gao, he is Grandma Gao's own son, so I was a little moved.
"Okay, this is also a piece of filial piety of yours, and I will lay the uneven ground with broken stones and level it later. It just so happened that there were some broken stones piled up at home that could be used. Gao Yuanzhi said, and since he had decided to do it, he went to find a shovel, to shovel the rocks to level the uneven ground.
Luo Xiaohua pursed his lips and disagreed, but he didn't say anything more.
Grandma Gao sat under the eaves and watched the scene completely, a smile like a daisy on her weather-beaten face.
She beckoned Gao Mingcheng to come over, and asked gently: "Mingcheng, you have been married for a while, is there any news about how beautiful your belly is?" ”
Gao Mingcheng was embarrassed for a few seconds, but he didn't expect that he encountered the birth skills from Grandma Gao.
His mother is now wholeheartedly taking care of her eldest grandson, but she doesn't have the heart to care about him, of course, he is happy to do so.
"Me and Tomei are still young, so we can wait two years to have another child." Gao Mingcheng said.
But Grandma Gao disagreed, and gave an example: "What are you young? You are half a year older than Gao Zhuang, but he got married later than you and got pregnant first! ”
Gao Mingcheng slandered, Gao Zhuang was not pregnant, it was his daughter-in-law who was pregnant!
It can be seen that marrying a wife who is older than yourself has certain benefits.
Gao Mingcheng accompanied Grandma Gao for a while, and said that he would also go back to lay the yard with cement, and after the rice was harvested, there would be a place to dry.
This is a serious matter, and Grandma Gao didn't keep him much, so he went to work on his own.
Gao Mingcheng pushed the rest of the cement and river sand back to his home, and instead of busy working first, he sent the flatbed truck to others first.
The car was borrowed, but Gao Mingcheng had already planned to make a flatbed truck himself.
Almost half of the people in their village have flatbed trucks, and some families have wheelbarrows at home, which can carry fewer things, but can walk on relatively narrow ridges.
When the harvest season comes, some families who are far away from their homes will transport the harvested paddy home by wheelbarrow and threshing it.
Traditional threshing is done by striking in something that resembles a deep wooden basin, and there are also those who pick up rice and smash it against a concrete wall for threshing.
But with the advancement of technology, there are now threshing machines, and when you step on the pedals of the threshing machine, a large drum filled with iron rings will rotate, and then use these semi-circular iron rings to knock the rice down.
It's just that the threshing machine is a large farm tool, not every household has it, so you need to borrow it at this time, or you can borrow it from the brigade, and the brigade has several threshing machines that can be lent to the villagers.
The topic is far away, Gao Mingcheng, who only has one acre of land, has no intention of making a wheelbarrow, nor does he plan to spend money on a threshing machine, how much rice can there be in one acre of land? With his strength, he can harvest and thresh casually, and there is no need to even borrow a threshing machine.
His yard is relatively large, when building the house, the ground has been leveled, and a layer of broken stones has been paved, usually there is no problem in walking, but if you dry the grain, it will definitely be inconvenient.
Now he found a vacant lot and began to mix cement and river sand together, he knew the proportion by heart, he had worked in real estate in his previous life, and he had also observed and helped when building houses in this life.
First mix the cement, after the cement is mixed, it can be used, you need to use tools to transport the mixed cement to a certain place, and then use a shovel to shovel it open, pave it, and finally make some shallow lines out, which can play a role in anti-slip.
When paving the cement floor, it can not be paved with a whole piece of land, and it is divided into a small piece of paving, and there needs to be a gap of about one centimeter between each piece, because the cement will expand and contract in heat, and some voids are needed to not be easy to crack.
In the past life, when some people paved the road, they would pave it as a whole, and then wait for the cement to dry, and then use a cutting machine to cut the road surface according to a certain distance.
Gao Mingcheng didn't have a cutting machine, and he didn't plan to be so troublesome, so he thought about the problems that would arise later when he was shopping.
It took a whole day for Gao Mingcheng to finally cement the entire yard. He stood under the eaves, looked at the cement yard that had not yet dried, and smiled with satisfaction.
The previous gravel yard had a sense of cheapness of a semi-finished product, but now the smooth cement floor looks tall!
