Chapter 76 Furniture Completed

With the help of the villagers, all the rice was harvested in just a few days. The efficiency was really impressive, which made Deng Yunjun, the production team leader, sigh with emotion. If everyone had been so motivated to work before, how could they? The production team is definitely the richest production team in the county.

After the rice is harvested, it will take several days to dry the rice (if the weather is good). However, these are relatively easy tasks that can be done by the women in the family and do not require the help of strong laborers. Therefore, the reclamation work of Deng Shirong's orchard is It’s time to proceed again.

While every household in the village was busy drying grain, Zhang Jiefang and several other carpenters worked hard for a full month and a half, and finally built all the furniture Deng Shirong needed.

The doors and windows had been installed long ago, and after all the furniture was assembled, the originally empty house completely changed its appearance.

Deng Shirong was in a good mood and prepared a large table of delicious food to entertain several carpenters that night.

After he had eaten and drank enough, Deng Shirong took out the wages he had prepared and handed them to several carpenters one by one. He said with a smile on his face: "I have really worked hard for you all in the past month and a half. At [-]:[-] the day after tomorrow Eight minutes into the fire, everyone remember to come and eat!"

Several carpenters took the wages and looked at the large group of people with satisfied smiles on their faces.

However, you still have to say kind words, especially to Zhang Kangmei. Deng Shirong was still his matchmaker, so after he received the wages, he only kept half of them and handed the other half back to Deng Shirong: "Jiu Gong, you have been waiting for such a long time. You have been providing us with good food and drink, so why do you need to pay so much wages? This is enough!"

Grandpa Zhang and Father Zhang also politely refunded half of their wages.

When several other carpenters saw this, they were too embarrassed to take all of them, so they also returned half of the way.

Deng Shirong did not answer. He smiled and waved his hands and said, "You deserve this, so don't push it around. If I want to add some furniture later, I will have to ask you to come over and help me!"

The carpenters made some concessions before happily accepting the money.

"Uncle Jiu, if you want to build any furniture in the future, just send a message and I will make it for you as soon as possible."

"Jiu Gong, thank you for your hospitality during this time. This is the most comfortable time I have ever had in my life!"

"Jiu Gong, if you have any orders in the future, just tell me, I will be here when you call."

After the two parties exchanged polite greetings, several carpenters left one after another.

After leaving Deng Shirong's house, the three Zhang family descendants naturally had to go to Deng Yunjin's in-laws to say hello.

The work of the three of them, grandfather and grandson, is over, and they will go back to prepare for Zhang Kangmei's wedding.

……

Whether in this era or in future generations, moving to a new home is an extremely important thing for rural people.

After all, rural people have limited abilities. Many people may only build a new house once in their lifetime, so naturally they cannot attach too much importance to it.

The Bobake family calls moving into a new home a feast, and they usually invite all their relatives and friends over for a meal. If the house they build or buy is very high-end, they will basically have a big party called entering the fire wine. The grandness is almost as grand as a wedding.

After the Deng Shirong family's house was built, it was unique in the entire Shuangwang realm. If it had been any other house, it would have been a grand celebration.However, Deng Shirong has no big plans.

In his mind, this house was just for excessive use. It would be demolished and rebuilt in ten or eight years at most, so this house in his mind was not as important as outsiders imagined.

Secondly, the person he is looking for for his eldest son will come to visit his house in a few days, and he will also invite relatives and friends over for dinner. If they attend a fire and wine party, then the frequency of wine parties at their house will be too high.

Of course, entering the fire was a big deal. Although Deng Shirong had no intention of making it a big deal, he still wanted to invite his relatives and friends over for a meal, so he greeted the carpenters and asked them to come over for dinner the day after tomorrow.

……

The [-]th day of the [-]th lunar month.

At [-]:[-] in the morning, amidst the crackling of firecrackers, Deng Shirong and his children entered the new home together with relatives and friends, saying auspicious words.

After completing various procedures according to custom, the formal fire begins to cook.

Today, Deng Shirong did not cook in person, but let his eldest daughter Deng Yunzhen be the commander-in-chief of the kitchen. She has a large group of people to help her, and she only needs to control the overall situation and cook.

Deng Shirong, on the other hand, accompanied his relatives and friends to take a look at the new house.

Although relatives and friends have already visited the Deng Shirong family's new house after it was built, the feeling of an empty house is completely different from that of a furnished house. Naturally, relatives and friends have to take a good look again.

Needless to say, all the relatives and friends were shocked again.

In rural areas of this era, furniture was really rare, and there were only a handful of families with wardrobes.

Each of the thirteen rooms in Deng Shirong's house is equipped with a large wardrobe, which is really outrageous luxury.

What is particularly commendable is the wedding room prepared by Deng Shirong for his eldest son. The canopy bed in this room has a pattern with the word "happy" on it, which looks beautiful and festive.The big wardrobe was different from the other twelve rooms. It had a mirror. After seeing the big wardrobe, the women present had a look of longing in their eyes. They all obviously wanted to have a big wardrobe like this. .

In addition to the canopy bed and wardrobe, there is also a dressing table that looks very nice.

These two or three pieces of furniture would be considered shabby in later generations, but in this day and age, friends and relatives who see them all praise them from the bottom of their hearts.

Chen Dacong (Deng Yuntai's second uncle) said with admiration on his face: "Brother-in-law, with the big blue brick house and such beautiful furniture, when the girl comes to see the house the day after tomorrow, I'm afraid she won't be able to take her eyes away!"

Chen Daming (the third uncle of Deng Yuntai) also praised: "Yes, this room is really beautiful, with clean cement floors, the room is big and bright, and the furniture is so high-end and beautiful. The woman came to see it, Absolutely couldn’t be more satisfied.”

Deng Shirong smiled when he heard this, and he agreed with what his two brothers-in-law said. It cost a lot of money for him to hire someone to build so much furniture.

Although the wood was produced by himself, several carpenters worked hard for a month and a half to build it. He paid 800 yuan for the labor alone, not counting the delicious food and drinks for more than a month. So much money was spent. , it would be strange if it didn’t work.
