The Rebirth of 88s Begins with a Carpenter

Chapter 16: A house is not a home, someone is a home

  Chapter 16 Having a house is not a home, but someone is a home

  Looking at Ma Mingjun's back, Xiong Gang was dumbfounded: "This kid is much older than Yaodi, right?"

  Wu Xiuhua is still thinking.

  Wu Yuan has already blurted out: "Five years older than me."

   "Then you still accept him?"

"Yaodi has no problem accepting him," Wu Xiuhua explained: "Based on father's generation, he is indeed a generation behind Yaodi. There is nothing wrong with calling him Master Yuan. Since there is nothing wrong with calling him Master Yuan, it is even more okay to recognize Master. gone."

  Wu Yuan added: "I feel old when he calls me like that."

  Yang Luoyan couldn't help laughing out loud.

   As a result, Wu Yuan put on a pretty face with a single sentence: "Don't forget, if I become a master, you will become a master's wife."

  Yang Luoyan slapped him resolutely, but it was a pity that he couldn't hold back his strength from laughing.

   After seeing off the third sister and the couple, Wu Yuan took a bag of happy candy to the aunt's house next door, and brought Rhubarb back.

  As soon as the dog smelled the smell of meat left in the house, he immediately regained his energy.

   She looks a bit like she was before being drugged.

   It seems that this dog has recovered.

   Tied Rhubarb to the door as usual, threw a bone for it to grind its teeth, and Wu Yuan began to tidy up inside and out.

  Not only did Ma Mingjun have to dismantle the earthen stove that Ma Mingjun hadn’t finished dismantling, but he also had to move out the new furniture that had been piled up in the west wing of the main house, and replace the old furniture that was already obsolete by the way.

   But it’s okay to dismantle the earthen stove and move the bricks alone, but it’s a bit weak to move the furniture.

  Called Yang Luoyan to help, but it turned out that she still felt a little uncomfortable when she moved.

   It's just that she didn't say anything, but gritted her teeth and endured it.

  Wu Yuan has to admit it.

   Blame him on the mattress stress test last night, which was too intense.

   Fortunately, at this time, Ma Mingjun came back with a look of excitement.

   "My father said, you have to choose an auspicious day for apprenticeship, and prepare well."

   "Then why are you back?"

   "I just remembered that the work is not done."

  With the help of Ma Mingjun, it will be much more efficient to clean up.

   Soon, the main room and the east wing were decorated with new furniture, giving them a completely new look.

  Panda TV was also placed beside Simmons' bed, with an antenna plugged in.

  The Butterfly brand sewing machine is placed under the window.

  Finally, he is a bit more serious.

  The house is still the suite, but looking at the busy Yang Luoyan, Wu Yuan felt inexplicably at ease.

   If you really have a house, you are not a home, but you are called a home.

   By the time the work was over, it was getting dark, and Yang Luoyan had already packed a table of dishes.

   Asked Ma Mingjun to stay and eat together, but this guy refused to say anything, and ran away again.

  The young couple finished their dinner.

  Yang Luoyan cleaned up the dishes and poured the leftovers to Rhubarb by the way.

  The dog who hadn’t tasted meat for many days was so excited to eat that he howled to protect the food.

  Wu Yuan opened the east room, and all kinds of drills, axes, and saws were shrunk in the box untouched, and the frame of the combination cabinet stacked against the gable was also stable.

  The huanghuali master chair is also there, huddled in the corner with the pedals, inconspicuous.

  Tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

  This chair cannot be repaired this year.

  The key is the lack of huanghuali wood, even a broken leg will do.

   With emotion, he locked the door again.

  Wu Yuan strolled to the edge of the pigsty outside the courtyard.

   I haven’t raised pigs for many years, and the pen is not clean enough, full of all kinds of wood.

  Elm, poplar, paulownia, locust, you name it.

   There are also several big stumps.

  These are all saved from the felling of old trees in front of and behind the house in the past few years.

   Enough to last you a while.

  Thinking back when my parents sent me to learn carpentry, I was already prepared.

   While Wu Yuan was thinking, he was suddenly embraced from behind.

   "Where is the goblin, hasn't she appeared quickly?"

   "You are a fairy!"

  Yang Luoyan turned around, muttering, looking unhappy.

   I heard Wu Yuan explain: "Do you know that in a few years, goblin will become a word of praise. Ordinary women are not qualified to be female goblins."

  Yang Luoyan smiled immediately: "The family is done, let's go in."

  Wu Yuan nodded: "It's time to check the quality of the mattress."

   "What, I mean go inside and watch TV."

   "How can TV look better than you?"

   "Don't make trouble, my mother told us to sleep carefully at night, don't sleep so dead."

   "Afraid of thieves coming to steal the gifts?"

   "I'm afraid so."

   "Don't worry about that. I have given all the gift money to the third brother-in-law, and we still owe the third brother-in-law 120 yuan, and the sisters 650 yuan."

   "Then let's pay back all my sister's money."

   "Use the 1,000 yuan gift money?"

   "In addition to the bride price, I still have more than 400 cash in the box."

   "That's not necessary." After Wu Yuan finished speaking, he added; "Keep it for emergencies."

"Listen to you."

  Yang Luoyan readily accepted.

  There is nothing to hide from Wu Yuan in my heart, and I feel a lot more relaxed, so that when I walk, I feel like I am dancing.

  Wu Yuan was thrilled to see it.

   From behind, he hugged his daughter-in-law by the waist.

   Yang Luoyan was caught off guard and screamed.

  It was only later that I discovered that there was only one big yellow dog in this house besides my husband and wife.

   Nothing to be shy about.

  The head was deeply buried in Wu Yuan's arms, and he was allowed to carry it into the house.

  The big yellow dog silently raised his head from the pile of hay and shavings, glanced at the two of them, and silently retracted it.

  Since this woman came in, the days are getting worse day by day.

  In the past, at least there was a dog shed, which could not block the wind, but at least it could block the rain and snow.

   Now it’s all right, with the sky as your cover and the earth as your hut.

   Aww, I can't live through this day.

  The next day.

  The twenty-ninth of the twelfth lunar month counts as thirty.

  It was just dawn, and the couple were dreaming soundly, when they heard a dog barking accompanied by rhubarb outside, and someone slammed the door.

  Yang Luoyan woke up suddenly, dressed in a hurry, and opened the door to have a look.

   It is none other than the big man Ma Mingjun.

   "Master, I will give Master two fish for the New Year."

   As he spoke, he picked up the two big herrings that had their gills pierced with straw.

  Wu Yuan came out wearing a padded jacket and asked with a smile: "Ming Jun, haven't you learned from your teacher yet? You gave the gift too early."

  Ma Mingjun scratched his head: "It's getting late, Master. The fish were caught in the fish pond a few days ago, and they have been kept in the tank."

   "That's fine." Wu Yuan nodded, and Yang Luoyan took the opportunity to take it, "This is considered a teacher's ceremony, so don't spend any more money in the future. Come here early when you have time, and learn more from me. It's important."

   "Hey! Okay!" Ma Mingjun responded repeatedly, rubbed his hands and asked: "Master, what work do you want to do today?"

  Wu Yuan waved his hand: "On New Year's Eve, what kind of work can you do? You can come back too, and have a good New Year with peace of mind."

   After Ma Mingjun was sent away, Wu Yuan helped his wife fetch a large basin of water from the hand-pressed well, and put two big herrings in it.

   I had a great time swimming.

   The couple didn't have time to see more, so they rushed to the village market to make up for breakfast.

   A few days ago, I was getting ready to get married.

  New Year's things, such as couplets, window grilles, paper money for ancestors, and even firecrackers, nothing is prepared.

   Finally waiting for you, everyone, the first one is delivered.
