From the time Tang Xiaorou disappeared until she returned to this family, Tang Xiaoyi became even more protective of her sister. In the past, he would occasionally use his brother's authority to grab things to eat and play with his sister. But now he can't do that anymore.
People always know how to cherish things after they are lost. Only when the lost things come back to you again will you cherish them even more.
While these adobe bricks were drying, Tang Wanwan and her siblings made a wooden door. This wooden door seemed simple, but it was very heavy. There was a small button on the door bolt, which had to be opened manually.
Just pull it down to open it.
Like ordinary wooden door bolts, you only need to use a sharp knife to open the door.
In the Tang family courtyard, there is no way to do this trick again.
"Awan, Xiaorou, Xiaoyi, let's have dinner." Mrs. Chen made the clay bricks and went to make lunch.
For lunch, they ate steamed buns with sweet potato porridge, fish pieces left over from yesterday, and a plate of wild vegetables and stir-fried radish strips. This was already quite a sumptuous meal.
Mrs. Chen felt sorry for the hard work of the children. Just do more, don't starve them. Awan said, fill your stomach first and then earn. If you don't have enough money, you can earn more. If you can't eat enough now
, then you still have the energy to do other things.
When she arrived at the small courtyard, Madam Chen was stunned. She saw that the wooden door was already ready. It was made of pieces of wood, but the effect was no worse than an ordinary door.
"Awan, is this what your father taught you?"
"Yes, mother! Our father used to be very good at his craftsmanship, wasn't he?"
"I don't know. I only know that he can do carpentry, but he doesn't do it easily. He often makes bows and arrows, and goes hunting in the mountains. Every time he comes back, he is always empty-handed."
"That means our dad is great, but why doesn't dad do the carpentry work he's good at, and instead works as a salt press?"
Mrs. Chen's eyes suddenly dodge. She sighed quietly and said, "When I met your father, this was what he did. If you ask me, I don't know."
Okay, it seems like Mom still has something to hide from her and refuses to tell her?
What kind of thing could it be? Could it involve some confidential matter? Tang Wanwan thought about several possibilities and felt that it was something bad after all. Otherwise, why couldn't they let their children know it publicly.
"Is Miss Tang at home?"
"I am." When she heard someone was looking for her outside, Tang Wanwan hurriedly went out. It turned out to be someone from the carpenter's shop who had brought her wood.
I saw a young man and a woman standing outside, pushing a cart of wood.
"Hello, I'm from Tan's carpentry shop. My name is Tan Ling. My grandfather asked me and my brother to bring you wood." Tan Ling is slender and not very tall. Her brother Tan Song is about seven feet tall and tall.
It is quite strong and looks very strong.
"Hello, thank you. Why don't you bring the wood in?" Tang Wanwan sent a lot of wood to the carpenter shop and asked people at the carpenter's shop to help process it into rectangular, square, or other shapes. She paid a full fee.
Two wages. This is a big deal. There are regulations on how many pieces of each specification can be made and how much length. They are carpenters who take jobs from people and don’t talk much. They don’t ask people what they do specifically.
.But Tang Wanwan is really a little curious when she asks people to make so many pieces of wood with strange rules.
Tan Song immediately pushed the cart by himself into the Tang family courtyard. Tan Ling was afraid that her brother could not push it, so she wanted to help. Tan Song did not let her push it, saying that he could do it. He pushed the cart to the entrance of the Tang family courtyard.
Go, as soon as his car reached the door sill, he saw something underneath suddenly bounced up. He pushed the car directly in without any effort.
Tan Song's face was full of curiosity. He quickly turned around to look at the threshold he had just passed. He saw that the threshold was flat and there was nothing there. The thing that suddenly stood up just now was gone. He suddenly said curiously: "Hey, it's strange. Just now
When I walked in, something seemed to jump up and push my car, but why is it gone now?"
Tang Wanwan said nothing and smiled faintly.
Because Tan Ling didn't pay attention to what was under the car, she didn't see the scene just now. She said, "It's nothing, I didn't see it just now."
Tan Song looked at Tang Wanwan, and Tang Wanwan didn't explain. He just said, "You must have read it wrong." Many people don't understand the use of elasticity. Once a certain level of pressure is reached, the spring installed under the wooden board will
With such force, it will bounce up immediately. This is a setting to help you when transporting heavy objects.
This is also a small mechanism setting of Jin Luban, which is considered child's play. The principle of automatic door bolts is more complicated than this.
Then Tan Song discovered the wooden door made by Tang Wanwan. It looked ordinary, but a knowledgeable person could tell that the wooden door was not simple to make. There was not a single iron nail in sight, and the connection between the wooden blocks was very tight.
Close, leaving no gaps.
"Did you make this one yourself? This one is pretty good."
"A Song, let's go. We are only responsible for delivering the goods. Don't be rude to the host." After Tan Ling finished speaking, she apologized to Tang Wanwan with an apologetic expression.
Tang Wanwan smiled and said, it doesn't matter. Then she paid the money and sent the siblings out.
After going out, Tan Song looked puzzled and couldn't help but ask his sister. "Sister, didn't grandpa always say that we should learn more and ask more questions? Today I saw something strange about the door of Miss Tang's house, and I couldn't even ask.
?"
"This is a rule in the industry. We only take jobs and don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked. But we can look and think for ourselves, but don't ask the owner directly. Do you understand this is a rule?"
"Oh, I know, sister. Sister, can you see the doorway? Their door is really strange, and when I pushed the car in just now, something really pushed it for me."
"Please tell me more specifically." Tan Song told his sister what he felt and what he saw.
Tan Ling thought for a while and didn't know why, so she said: "Let's go back and ask grandpa. He is well-informed and may know something."
"Um!"
The two siblings went back with their thoughts in mind and asked Grandpa Tan. Grandpa Tan couldn't tell him about Zi Chou Yin Mao. However, a customer who was buying goods in their store heard it. He asked what happened and then took the things.
Just left.
The grandfather and grandson didn't pay too much attention and continued to do their own work.
Their Tan Family Carpentry Shop is quite famous in this area. The craftsmanship is good, the people are honest, and they cut corners when they don't know how to work. The most important thing is that the price is affordable.
Just like Tang Wanwan made nearly a hundred pieces of wood processing this time, it only cost one or two silver, and the bed, wheelchair, door and bookshelf she made were all made of materials. In this way,
It saved her a lot of time. Then she only had to join these pieces of wood like building blocks to make what she wanted.
