"Yes, if you hold on to the iron rod and dance a ballroom dance for me, our hatred will be understood."
As soon as Brother Hou heard this, he became energetic.
Isn't it just twisting your butt around an iron rod? This is really good.
Two days ago, he was dancing with a big ass behind closed doors.
He thrust the stick into the ground hard, held the iron stick with both hands, and twisted his buttocks.
Although the movements are clumsy, it still has that taste.
Li Donglai seemed to feel that he had returned to the nightclub of later generations.
Yan Bugui and a dozen young men next to him were all stunned and frowning.
I always feel that the dance performed by Brother Hou seems a bit inappropriate, but I can't explain why.
Ten minutes later, Brother Hou, who was covered in sweat and panting, stopped and ran to Li Donglai with a shy smile: "Brother, is it okay now?"
"Okay." Li Donglai nodded, "We have reconciled, now it's the turn of this old comrade and these dozen little brothers."
"you!
"Brother Hou realized that he was being played, and his anger arose in his heart. He picked up the stick and was about to rush over.
Li Donglai flew a kick in the air and kicked him to the ground.
"Good boy, you're still practicing as a master. Today I'll let you try my Hou family's Bafang Breaking Wind Stick Technique!" Brother Hou struggled to get up, holding up the stick and wanting to go up again.
At this time, a young man behind him walked up and whispered in Brother Hou's ear.
Brother Hou's face changed drastically, and profuse sweat dripped from his forehead.
Compared with people like Mr. Wang Wu who have actually seen blood, these young people are just like playing house.
Brother Hou is a flexible person. After realizing this, he quickly accepted the preparation for heavy bleeding.
Afterwards, several people entered the acquisition point together to discuss the acquisition.
Li Donglai was sitting on the jeep, striking a match and lighting a cigarette.
Take a deep breath, and the spicy smell fills your entire mouth, painful and pleasurable.
****
Time flies by slowly.
In the blink of an eye....
Two months have passed and the house has been decorated.
I have to say that Xiang Lei’s craftsmanship is truly outstanding, and the cabinets are smoother than those made with power tools in later generations.
Especially the huanghuali "angry cat" wardrobe made Li Donglai see the uncanny workmanship of carpenters.
There is no spring installed, so you need to apply force when opening the door. When you let go, it will automatically go in and close.
When one of the drawers is pushed in, the other one will automatically push out.
This unscientific attitude immediately put Li Donglai under control.
Later, after asking for advice on the style, I realized that although the cabinet looks boxy, the internal structure has been specially designed and the center is on the inside. Therefore, you need to apply force when opening the door, but when you let go, it can automatically go in and close.
As for the drawers, it's simple. The tops of the two drawers are sealed, forming a tight drawer. When one drawer is pushed in, the other one will automatically push out due to the internal air pressure.
After understanding this, Li Donglai had to praise "the wisdom of the ancients".
Just when Li Donglai was about to pack a red envelope, Xiang Lei took out two pillows from the cabinet and said with a smile: "Dr. Li, I made two gadgets with the remaining wood. Take a look."
Pillow? It has a round front part and a handle on the back. You call it a pillow.
Seeing Li Donglai's puzzled look, Xiang Lei Shou explained with a smile: "This little thing is called Lu Ban Pillow, and it also has a nickname called Blind Break."
"Bullshit?" Li Donglai was even more surprised. Doesn't "bubble" just mean nonsense? Why is it connected with a different-looking pillow?
"The way to test the quality of a Luban pillow is very simple. After you are done, break it apart. If it can be broken open, it is good. If it cannot be broken open, it is bad, so it is also called blind breaking."
Opened the pillow.
The round pillow instantly turned into a stool.
"Look, the Luban pillow can be used as a pillow or as a stool to sit on. Isn't it amazing?"
Li Donglai took the Luban pillow and looked at it carefully. Looking at the three connected parts from the side, it was actually made from a single piece of wood and went through more than ten processes. It looked like a miraculous craftsmanship.
but...
Li Donglai: "Master, if I want to sit down, why don't I just sit on the stool?"
Style Lei: "This..."
Li Donglai: "Also, this thing is both a pillow and a butt pad. Isn't it inappropriate?"
Xiang Lei smiled awkwardly: "This, I haven't thought about this."
Li Donglai held the Luban pillow in his arms and secretly decided that it would be his pillow from now on.
Who dares to sit on it like a stool and have their butt kicked off?
...
Although Xiang Lei refused wages, Li Donglai still gave him a red envelope of two hundred yuan.
Such craftsmanship is worth twice the price.
...
After the house is decorated, it is natural to start preparing for the wedding.
The first thing is the big red quilt. Li Xiaomei asked the old sister-in-law in the courtyard that most people need to prepare three or four quilts.
Li Donglai now has three pillar industries: tutoring classes, old hat production lines, and renewable resource recycling groups.
It can be considered a wealthy family, so naturally it prepares a little more than the average family.
Through Wang Wuye, he purchased forty kilograms of cotton coupons from the pigeon market, plus the ten kilograms of cotton coupons distributed by the factory, and spent thirty yuan to buy fifty kilograms of cotton from the supply and marketing cooperative.
I went to the fabric store and pulled out the sheets and quilt cover.
Quilt covers in this era generally include blue and black Dika quilt tops, red quilt tops, and flower and bird quilt tops.
If you are willing to spend money and cloth tickets, you can also buy soft satin from Suzhou and Hangzhou in Beijing Department Store, also known as luxurious brocade quilt cover, which is divided into fifteen colors, eighteen colors and twenty-four colors. In the past, this was the wealth of landlords.
Only affordable ones are more eye-catching.
Li Donglai thought it was better to keep a low profile, so he only bought one soft satin bed sheet and quilt, and the rest were all red cotton sheets and quilts.
Then there are tea bottles, washbasins, sewing machines, radios, etc.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! There were too many things to carry, so Li Donglai had no choice but to borrow a tricycle from Sha Zhu and pull it back from the store.
Well, Ding Qiunan is responsible for escorting the car.
If the road is uneven, don't let things fall halfway.
Even with the tricycle, Li Donglai and Ding Qiunan were still busy for nearly the whole morning.
After everything was moved into the house and placed, Ding Qiunan and Li Xiaomei started cleaning.
Li Donglai, an idle man, was going to Yanbu Gui's house to ask the third aunt to help him sew a quilt.
These days, there are also some specialties when sewing quilts for weddings. You should choose the double-headed day of the double month to make it, which means good things come in pairs.
Looking for a "Quanhuoren" (a woman with two children and a happy husband and wife) to sew a quilt indicates a happy and happy life after the wedding.
Of course, there are also things to pay attention to when sewing quilts. Sew in a straight line forward. The threads cannot be knotted or the needle is knocked down. There are eight stitches in a quilt, and each stitch is sewn to the bottom with one thread, and the thread cannot be changed in the middle.
Li Donglai originally planned to find Chen Xueru from the tailor shop to complete another money transaction.
Later, when I thought about it, I realized that she was a young widow, which obviously did not meet the definition of a "whole living person".
Qinjiagou is too far away and it is inconvenient to go back and forth, so I have no choice but to look for it in the courtyard.
After much deliberation, there are only three aunts in the whole compound who are the most suitable.
Since helping Yan Bugui retrieve the stolen bicycle, Yan Bugui and the third aunt have become much more affectionate towards brother and sister Li Donglai than before.
Often when it's almost noon, I ask the two of them to go have a meal. Of course, they have to bring their own noodles or stick noodles.
...
Li Donglai just opened the door and walked out of the house. He heard a weak voice behind him after walking two steps.
"Dong, Brother Donglai..."
When he turned around and looked, he was immediately frightened and took a step back.
