Chapter 226
Fortunately, these few days have been sunny, although the sun is definitely not comparable to that in summer, all the adobes are completely soaked in the four days.The most fearful thing about drying adobe is that the adobe will not be dried in the next autumn rain, and the previous steps will have to be repeated, which is very troublesome.

Finally, we can go to bed.

Most of the rooms in ancient times had a layout of one bedroom and one living room, which is completely different from the modern layout where there is basically no space left for a single bed. I didn’t remove the bed next to my bed. In this way, I can sleep on the kang in winter, and I can sleep back when I want to sleep on the bed when the weather is warm. Anyway, the place is big enough, so I can sleep wherever I want, just willful!
As mentioned above, there are three points that need to be paid attention to on the kang. The second is that the surface of the kang must be flat and comfortable to lie on!Not even a small bag!Also note that the head is high and the feet are low. The height of the kang surface should have a slight slope. It is not obvious if you don’t look carefully, but you can definitely feel the effect when you sleep.The workers are also inexperienced in this area. Most of the poorer tenants in this era are reluctant to buy beds to sleep in. They just use mud to build a sleeping kang. Naturally, this kind of resistance will not be able to burn fire for heating like a kang, even if it is true. Put a stove on the kang and burn the fire, and the heat will not be dizzy, and it may burn the earthen kang directly.

It is said that the surface of the kang of the Qin family has been uneven for a long time after sleeping for many years. The main reason is that they directly piled up the kang with loess poured with water and mud, and did not build a kang tightly with adobe. It is strong, and it will naturally sag when you sleep for a long time.

In addition to the flat surface of the kang, the last thing to pay attention to is whether the kang can withstand heat, which is also the most important point!If the heated kang can't meet the requirement of 'warmth', what do you need it for?The heated kang must not only be heat-resistant, it will heat up quickly and cool down slowly, and it must also be heated evenly, so that one side is so hot that you can't stand on it, and the other side is so lukewarm that there is almost no temperature.

To achieve these three points, and to pay attention to the craftsmanship of the builders, even with Qin Shuang's guidance, it took a whole day to set up one kang, and the remaining two had failed several times before. , I finally accumulated some experience, and it took another day to get it right.

Not to mention that the two workers were relieved, Qin Shuang and the others were also exhausted and tired!

In the future, when I move to Zhuangzi, there will definitely be a kang. Chen and Qin Tian have participated in the whole process, and let them be responsible for watching. Anyway, she will not wait on her. Do this kind of thing by yourself, once is enough up.

When the heated kang was successfully set up, the crazy old man could really feel the heat from the kang to his hands, and his jaw almost dropped in shock. He couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time, but kept clapping his hands in praise: "Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Sitting on the hot kang, Ah Chen proudly snorted at the crazy old man: "You see! I've said that Shuangshuang can do it, you still don't believe it!"

"Believe! Believe! From now on, I won't dare to doubt Shuang girl again!" The crazy old man was amazed, not to mention doubting Qin Shuang, he just wanted to pry open her head to see how many things were inside, how could it be so miraculous? She can figure out things!

Lying on the warm kang, the crazy old man couldn't help squinting his eyes comfortably, especially when his broken arms and legs were scorched by the heat from the kang, the feeling, tsk, how comfortable it was!

Qin Tian also found it very strange that Qin Shuang made a heated kang. No, it should be said that since Qin Shuang became a good cook, she has been constantly refreshing her understanding of her. The seriously injured crazy old man was rescued, and he got a lot of money from somewhere to buy a big mansion, and now he came up with a new gadget to ensure that they will not suffer from the slightest cold this winter!
