Chapter 938: The selfish and vain female supporting role (35)
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yin made a list and sent it.
Chen Jiao asked her again if she needed furniture. She knew a salesperson from a certain brand of furniture factory and asked the manufacturer directly to get the goods. Not only was the price favorable, but it was also delivered directly to her door, including installation.
"It is now popular to customize the whole house. Kitchen cabinets, bedroom wardrobes, and even bathroom lockers can be customized according to size. If you need it, I can help you match up."
Xu Yin originally planned to take her time, but she was short of money.
But after thinking about it, I should actually buy furniture earlier than electrical appliances, as they need ventilation to disperse odors.
"Sister Chen, can I advance next quarter's dividend?"
Chen Jiao replied cheerfully: "No problem!"
Xu Yin confidently reported the size to her.
Not having to worry about anything, I simply entrusted Chen Jiao with the purchase of furniture.
"Thank you, Sister Chen."
"It's easy to talk about. On the day of the funeral, you can cook me some delicious dishes."
"That is required!"
…
When new houses are built in rural areas, they need to be beamed.
Even now, many of the newly built houses are reinforced concrete structures without beams, but this custom has still been preserved, which is nothing more than simplifying the old beam-raising ceremony.
The day of Liang Liang is also an auspicious day to choose from.
But after the house was built, it was already the seventh month of the lunar calendar. In rural areas, happy events are generally not held in July. Finally, Xu's mother asked a fortune teller to pick an auspicious day in the early eighth month of the lunar calendar.
The fifth day of August corresponds to the sixteenth day of September in the Gregorian calendar.
It just so happens that the main body of the new house has been built, but the interior walls and exterior facades still need to be whitewashed, wall tiles installed, windows and sliding doors need to be installed, and the yard needs to be tidied up... In short, there are still a lot of things to do. The day of beaming has been postponed by one day.
Yue, there is no need to rush.
After setting the date for the wedding, Xu's father asked the town's steamed bun shop to order 200 large steamed buns stuffed with red bean paste, and weighed several kilograms of assorted candies.
On the day of Liang Liang, the villagers rushed to Xu Yin's house early to join in the fun.
For example, the village chief and his sons have visited several times because they often come to help, but this is the first time for most villagers after the villa is built and the simple and elegant European-style aluminum art courtyard door is installed.
Come.
When Xu Yin was pouring the floor in her yard, she asked workers to pour cement mixed with pebbles on the road in front of her house.
Coming up from the village road entrance, there is a cobblestone cement road with a slight slope, which is refreshing and refreshing. There are several sweet pomelo trees planted on both sides of the road.
In the southeast corner of the yard, a double-layered baking kiln was also built with cement and cobblestones.
"Mingkang, you said this is called a baking kiln? What is it used for? Roast chicken, duck, and steamed buns? Be good! You are so particular!"
"Mingkang, your yard is so neat and tidy, it's so beautiful!"
"If we put a fence on the west side, we can raise a lot of chickens in the open space next to the fruit trees."
"The pig pen has been moved to the backyard? It is indeed much cleaner this way."
"Grow flowers in the front yard, grow vegetables and raise pigs in the backyard, raise chickens in the side yard... Mingkang, your family is about to get better!"
"Look at what you said, the Mingkang family has been up for a long time! Can they afford to build such a big two-story house?"
"This is called a villa, not an ordinary building."
"Stop bickering and go upstairs and take a look. This house is so enviable."
"What's wrong? Aren't there four sleeping rooms upstairs?"
"No, the layout of the room is very particular. There is a bathroom and a dressing room in the bedroom... In short, it's like a small suite."
"I'll go upstairs and have a look!"
"..." After the visit, the villagers came downstairs and touched the wooden corner stairs. Envy was not enough to express their feelings at the moment:
"Mingkang, I see you have three suites and two guest rooms upstairs. Why are you preparing so many rooms?"
Father Xu distributed cigarettes and candies and said with a smile, "Isn't this two rooms reserved for Mingrui's family?"
"Your father will also live upstairs when he comes?"
"That's not true. He has bad legs and feet, so we arranged a suite for him on the first floor."
Only then did everyone discover that there was also a well-arranged south-facing bedroom on the first floor. The sliding door opened out to a long terrace for enjoying the shade. Outside the terrace, there was a small flowerbed made of broken bricks. Some flowers and plants were planted behind the terrace, and the view was not limited.
Great. Worried about the mosquitoes in summer? Wouldn’t it be better to replace the flowers and plants with insect repellent herbs?
The room is larger than the master bedroom upstairs. It not only has a separate bathroom with a bathtub, but also has a three-square-meter pantry, which is convenient for the old man to drink water at night.
"Old Xu is blessed!"
"I didn't expect that old guys like us would be the most blessed!"
Grandpa Xu, who came in his son's car, was so happy that he never closed his mouth.
Of course he was very lucky. Among other things, he drank the medicinal wine his granddaughter bought for him and his rheumatism did not attack for two months. He may have been cured.
Be humble: "Everywhere, everyone is blessed."
"..."
When did old man Xu become so good at talking?
Old Man Jiang and Mrs. Jiang, who were invited to attend the ceremony with their daughter and son-in-law, walked around upstairs and downstairs and sighed:
"My nephew-in-law's house is so well-renovated! If there is land, I would like to build one in the village."
"Didn't my nephew-in-law leave a room for us? Come whenever you want to come?"
"That's true." Mrs. Jiang narrowed her eyes and smiled, and said to her wife in a lowered voice, "Fortunately, I held it back and didn't make a fuss with my son-in-law."
"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. You are right not to make trouble."
"You know hindsight! Why didn't I listen to your advice at the time?"
"hey-hey……"
Wang Cuihua also visited with several women from the village. She was so envious and jealous that she wished this was her home, but she was critical: "I thought it had all the appliances and furniture, but it turned out to be just an empty shelf."
"I just went to the Liang today, and I didn't say I would move in now." The village chief's eldest daughter-in-law scolded her.
Wang Cuihua wanted to say something else, but suddenly she heard a noise coming from the door of the courtyard:
"Another car is here! It's so lively today!"
"There is a truck following behind? Yinyin, is this coming to your house too?"
Xu Yin walked out and saw that it was Sister Chen.
"Yinyin, I've sent you electrical appliances! The furniture will be delivered tomorrow. Don't worry, the manufacturer will deliver it to your door and install it. Just wait for the acceptance of the finished product."
Chen Jiao stopped the off-road vehicle, got out and waved to the electrical appliance store delivery truck that followed her.
A large double-door refrigerator, a 60-inch wall-mounted TV, a high-power drum washing machine, a cabinet air conditioner for the living room, a hanging air conditioner for the room, a steamer, an oven, a sterilizer, a dishwasher, and other household appliances in the kitchen were carried one by one by the store clerks.
Entering the new house, the villagers' eyes widened.
Darling! The Mingkang family really just keeps silent and becomes a blockbuster!
Such a complete set of furniture, all from very high-end brands, is the only one in the village!
In addition to electrical appliances, Chen Jiao also brought a dozen pairs of paintings.
Although it is not the work of a famous artist, it is also the work of a cutting-edge painter. The most expensive one is a landscape painting worth 50,000 yuan, suitable for hanging in the living room. The cheaper ones include 5,000 yuan, and one or two thousand yuan, suitable for hanging in the bedroom or study room.
Although the villagers didn't know the price of these paintings, when they saw the effect after hanging them up, they sighed inwardly: With such a layout, Mingkang's house feels like a city dweller.
