Dashan Orchard 1988

Chapter 239 It's Snowing

Li Muyang found that doing ideological work for someone like Wang Tianxiao was not an easy task.

Most people tend to be interested in interests, so when people do ideological work, most people will focus on interests.

But for people like Wang Tianxiao, the benchmark of his life is morality.

It becomes quite difficult to get them to violate their moral conscience.

It took Li Muyang a lot of effort to get Wang Tianxiao to accept 800, but Wang Tianxiao was still very nervous and said that he would live up to Li Muyang's trust even more in the future.

It actually made Li Muyang a little embarrassed.

Since he regarded Wang Tianxiao as a partner in his heart, he had no intention of just treating him as an employee.

In his eyes, the two are equal.

And he likes people like Wang Tianxiao who have a moral character very much. In addition to business, he also hopes that the two of them can be good friends forever.

The world is already very sad. There are flies and dogs everywhere. He feels that he should cherish it if he can meet a few good people like Wang Tianxiao.

September passed in the blink of an eye.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the work in the fields is gradually coming to an end.

Wang Tianxiao and Li Muyang discussed how to keep the fruit trees warm and anti-corrosive.

I started thinking about wrapping each tree in a layer, but then I felt that the workload was too much and there weren't that many things. In the end, I didn't do the work of keeping warm. I just painted the trunks with a layer of white ash to prevent the roots from rotting, and removed them at the same time. Winter worms.

As soon as October arrived, the first snow came.

It was also the day for Li Muyang to move.

Some time ago, he took his eldest brother to many places and finally installed some furniture. Li Mutian also made some small things himself. This two-pronged approach made the progress quite fast.

By the end of September, the furniture for more than a dozen rooms will be basically completed.

A lot of money was spent.

Almost half of the 3200 earned from telephone poles was spent.

But this money was a windfall to begin with, and he didn't feel bad about spending it.

The village had already started erecting telephone poles, and Liu Gong originally wanted to let Li Muyang take over the job of finding people, which meant that he would give the profit to him.

It is equivalent to a human agency.

If you want to collect money, you can also charge some fees during the process.

But Li Muyang didn't have much interest in this job.

Mainly because he really didn't have time.

It would be relatively easy to hire twenty cousins ​​to start an orchard, but it would be too troublesome to be responsible for erecting telephone poles for the entire village. He has been busy recently.

We have to organize people and have to run around to coordinate, but we really don’t have the energy.

But if he is unwilling to accept it, the blame will fall on Li Jianshe.

He couldn't bear it.

After much deliberation, he asked his second brother Li Muchi to try to persuade his servants to take over the job.

The second brother knows many people who work, and he often organizes people to go out to work together. Planting telephone poles is much less difficult than building a house.

Just dig enough holes as required, plant the poles firmly, keep the distance between the poles equal, in a line, etc.

It is relatively simple if these conditions are met.

Moreover, the power distribution station has dedicated technical personnel to follow, so they are not afraid that things will go wrong and not be discovered for a long time.

Li Muyang made some rough calculations. From this job, he can earn at least about 5 yuan from a telephone pole. If Li Muyang is more cruel, he can actually earn more from people.

But even if the minimum is 5 yuan per stick, you can still earn about 2000.

It takes about two months to survive, and the income is pretty good.

When he told Li Mu, Li Mu agreed wholeheartedly, thinking about his motorcycle, and came back again.

Since the beginning of the year, I have been thinking about motorcycles.

As a result, there were many things going on at home. Every time he wanted to have enough money, something else would come up.

Seeing that motorcycles are becoming more expensive, he hasn't saved enough money yet.

If I can successfully complete this job this time, I will definitely be fine, and I can even save a lot of money for the New Year.

Not all the telephone poles have been erected, but several main poles behind Li Muyang's house have been erected, and those entering their house are also taller.

In early October, wires for testing the circuit were set up.

After a day or two of testing, there were no problems, and Li Muyang's house began to brighten up.

He didn't have any ink, so he directly "discussed friendly" with Liu Gong and asked them to help deliver electricity to each room.

On the one hand, Liu Gong complained that he took advantage of the fire and knew how to make money, but he also felt that he helped him solve a lot of troubles and was more useful than the village chief. He also helped to unplug the electricity, which was just a little effort.

It was just that when Li Muyang asked to pull electricity, he put a plastic pipe through it. Liu Gong didn't know what it was for. Anyway, Li Muyang bought the pipe himself, and they just put it on by the way, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

Li Muyang, of course, considered it in conjunction with later generations' wire and pipe passing modes.

In the early years, people used to open the electricity on the exterior wall. Not only was it unsightly, but over time, the wires aged and were very dangerous. Children or someone else might break them.

When he was renovating this time, he planned in advance and left wire trenches in some key locations so that they could be embedded in when the wires were laid out. Although it would not look as good as being directly buried in the wall in later generations, he tried his best to go from the top. After the wires are pulled, the ceiling is finally made.

Don't cover most of the wires in the ceiling.

The main reason is that the suspended ceilings these days are not the aluminum composite panels with dragon frames in later generations. They can be disassembled at any time. There is no such technology yet.

Nowadays, the suspended ceilings are made by putting up the shelves on the top and then papering them together. It looks good and is difficult, but it is quite troublesome to do. People who are not rich generally don't know how to suspend the ceiling.

Li Muyang is not yet a rich man, but he has not given up, and has taken one step at a time.

He just wants to decorate his house beautifully so that when he moves, he will be envied by the people in the village. When his wife comes to visit, he will make those who once despised him also envy his wife and give his wife enough face and honor.

If you live a good life and no one else knows about it, it means walking at night in brocade clothes, which lacks a lot of meaning.

On October [-]rd of the lunar calendar, I opened the door early in the morning and found a thick layer of snow falling outside.

Li Muyang stood at the door of the room and watched as everyone came out one after another.

I was also surprised to see the heavy snow.

In the north, because of the low temperature and low air humidity, if it snows at night, it will basically accumulate.

It is at least a few centimeters thick. If there is a snowstorm, it can even be several dozen centimeters thick.

Li Muyang clearly remembers a snowy night when he was a child. The next morning he pushed the door and found that it could not be opened.

He had no choice but to jump out of the window, first find a way to make a hole in the door, and then reluctantly open the door.

The snow was at least seventy or eighty centimeters thick.

When they go to school, the children each hold a shovel in their hand and dig all the way to school.

If there had been a drone taking pictures from the sky at that time, we would have seen all the twists and turns of snow trenches on the ground.

But as the climate continues to warm, not only the south, but also the north gradually loses the depth of snow.

So later on, it became very difficult to find snow that could build a snowman, and many things could only be reduced to memories of the past.

"Wow, it's snowing!" There was a shout of surprise, and three children ran out of the side room at the back.

Of course Nuan Nuan takes the lead.

She has now become half of the Li family, followed by two little ones, a boy and a girl, who are Li Muyun's two children.

The big one is called Penpen and the small one is called Face.

Of course they are all nicknames, the big name is not important.

Penpen is slightly four years old this year, and Lianlian is less than three years old, which is the age when pigs dislike dogs. However, because she followed Qian Xiaoyu back to her parents' home for a while, she has learned a lot about the ways of the world at such a young age.

They couldn't understand why their parents were suddenly separated for so long, and Qian Xiaoyu liked to scare them, saying that if they were disobedient, their parents would separate again.

It made the children feel a little psychologically shadowed and they became less naughty.

After Li Muyang found out about this, he specifically told Qian Xiaoyu not to blame children for adults' right and wrong.

So as not to affect their mental development.

When children are so young, they are in the initial stage of forming their values ​​and outlook on life. Parents are the best guides. Often, they will remember what their parents say.

The biggest fear is this sense of guilt, which often makes children timid and afraid to do anything on their own initiative.

In the early years, many parents had this virtue.

When talking to children, she always likes to say that she works so hard for the sake of the children, and is dragged down by the children, etc. It can also be said that she is a PUA child, but it is indeed inappropriate.

Unsatisfactory life for adults is a complex issue.

There are gaps in one's own abilities and the consequences of not working hard, but there are also influences from the general social environment.

Only the children have nothing to do with it.

Often such heavy shackles will make children wear them for a lifetime and be unable to take them off.

Qian Xiaoyu is also a typical woman of the times.

If other people said that to her, she would definitely not accept it, but because Li Muyang has helped the couple a lot recently, especially after she came back, she temporarily lived here with Li Muyang and watched Li Muyun work hard all day, which made her feel much better than before. , I am very grateful to Li Muyang.

She is a very ordinary person, not lazy. She hopes that her husband can make more money, that she can live a richer life, etc.

With the help of her elder brother Li Muyang, her husband has basically moved in a good direction. She sees hope in life, so she is very grateful to Li Muyang.

So when Li Muyang told her these principles, she could listen.

The three children ran into the yard, spread out their hands, and ran around imitating airplanes, laughing happily.

Li Muyang liked it and thought about when he would have his own child.

It's already early October, and I'm going to marry my wife in November. I wonder if I can hold my child and watch the snow at this time next year.

He is looking forward to it.

"Be careful not to fall!"

He reminded the children with a smile.

"Uncle, help us build a snowman!"

"Big, big, big, come and build a snowman!"

Penpen and Lianlian also came over to hold Li Muyang's hand.

Although the children are only a generation younger than him, and he has just reached 31 years old in this world, because he has an old soul in his bones, looking at the children is like a relative from another generation.

He is usually very patient and gentle with children. The children also like him very much and have almost no fear in front of him.

He originally wanted to organize the yard layout when he got up, but seeing the enthusiasm of the children, he smiled and agreed.

So the big one and the three little ones soon started playing in the yard.

People got up one after another, and when they saw their appearance, they also said a few words cheerfully.

There are many people living in the courtyard now.

Due to various reasons, everyone stayed at their house temporarily.

Not to mention the mother, there is also Yuanyuan who is temporarily recuperating, Qinqin and her daughter who are in a semi-divorced state, the Muyun family who are not yet settled, Mi Dama and Wang Tianxiao who are temporarily staying.

Fortunately, there are a lot of houses at home now. Counting all the rooms in front and back that can be occupied, there are twelve.

Because the people who live there are very nice, everyone doesn't have any problems getting used to it.

Li Muyang actually likes this crowded and lively atmosphere.

But he also knew that this was only temporary.

When things stabilize, Muyun's family will go back to town, and Yuanyuan won't stay at home all the time. There will also be Qinqin. When the divorce is settled, she will have to find her husband sooner or later.

In addition, Wang Tianxiao also mentioned that it was inconvenient to live at home several times and was thinking of finding another place to live.

I guess in the end there will only be rice and horses left in the house that no one wants.

After breakfast, Wang Tianxiao took Mi Dama to the mountains, while Mu Yun and Yuanyuan went to the town to look at shops.

Li Muyang played with the children for a while and began to plan the use of each room.

When the previous furniture came back, a lot of it was temporarily stored without specific plans.

It happened to be snowing today, and I couldn't do anything else, so I just made good arrangements and made the final arrangements.

Once that's done, it's time to start planning for the wedding.

The courtyards in Qingcheng in the early years all adopted the quadrangle courtyard model (mentioned before, so I won’t repeat it again). If the courtyard is large enough, houses will be built in the three directions of northeast and west.

There will be some openings on the south side for parking various vehicles and storing sundries.

The most important thing about this layout is the setting of the gate.

Basically, unless the terrain is very special, the gate will not open to the north...

But it’s not absolutely none, just very few.

Except for the north, the gates in the other three directions open in similar directions.

The reason why many people like to open their doors in the south is because the south faces the sun and generally does not build houses.

For example, in Li Muyang's yard, the gate opens to the south.

When you enter through the main door, you will see the big room on the north, also called the main room. This house is generally not occupied by people, but is used to entertain guests. It can be regarded as the main hall of the courtyard.

Both sides of the big room are called side rooms, and there are wing rooms next to the side rooms.

Side rooms and wing rooms appear in pairs, with varying numbers, mainly depending on the size of the yard.

For example, the yard of Li Haisheng's house is a little over an acre. It is long from east to west and slightly shorter from north to south. Therefore, there are three rooms on the left and right sides of the big house, which is equivalent to 7 rooms facing north and south.

People here like to use "jian" to measure the size of a room. The so-called "jian" does not refer to a room, but a span of three meters wide.

For example, the big room is actually one room, but people will say, three rooms, which means the big room is nine meters wide.

According to the general room structure, large rooms are usually two and a half rooms, or even two rooms, but Li Muyang's house is large, so he can do whatever he wants.

The wing rooms next to the main room are two rooms and one and a half rooms respectively, and they are also built beyond standard.

He just wanted the rooms at home to be bigger, otherwise he would be miserable. (End of chapter)
