Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 169
The rest of the people covered the pigsty and the roof of the latrine. Sure enough, it didn't take an hour, and they were not idle. After drinking a saliva, they continued to paint the white walls inside and outside.

The doors and windows were also moved, and Carpenter Wang personally came to install them with the craftsmen.

Ding Shitou went to greet Carpenter Wang and asked about the progress of the furniture.

"The goods can be delivered within five days." Carpenter Wang said with a smile.He is a simple and honest person, and he is not dissatisfied with Ding Shitou because Ding Shitou made his daughter cry.

Ding Shitou was on the sidelines to help, and by the way, when talking about the school desks in the village school, she told the general shape and size, but Wang Carpenter did not give the time on the spot.

"This kind of table is like a small three-drawer table?" Carpenter Wang asked casually without seeing the drawing.

"Well, but no drawers, like the Eight Immortals table, it should be shorter, and it doesn't need to be carved, as long as it is strong." Ding Shitou gestured.

One table per person, all placed in one direction, is convenient for children to look at the blackboard, but not convenient for them to do small movements.

After hearing this, Carpenter Wang estimated the approximate price, thirty yuan for a piece, and twenty yuan for a pair of chairs.

That is to say, a set costs fifty cents, which is not cheap.

However, Carpenter Wang promised that if he made ten sets, he would give two small stools as a gift.

However, Ding Shitou was thinking about another matter, so he talked about the sand table at the moment. It was easier to do it this way, and now he counted five cents each, but the small stools were not given away.

As soon as he heard that it was Wuwen, Ding Shitou thought of causing troubles for schoolchildren every day, so he decided to make it uniformly, and the ownership belonged to the village school, and the children came to get one to write every day.

But each family can make another one for the children to practice calligraphy at home. Of course, they can just write on the mud floor, but it should not affect the learning progress.

Carpenter Wang promised to give priority to making desks, chairs and sand tables immediately after finishing the furniture, so as not to delay the work of the village school.

Ding Shitou quickly thanked him and continued to help.

Jiang Huzi and the others transported lime water for the craftsmen to paint the walls. Since the inner and outer walls were done at the same time, there was a lot of work.

At noon, Chen Liu came back, and shouted happily while still tying the donkey cart outside the yard.

"Ding Shi! Your family is so lucky! Coincidentally, there is a batch of goods in the quarry that is almost ready. Although the price is indispensable, the delivery will be ready in the afternoon."

"That's great." Ding Shitou was naturally happy when he heard that.

The bulk of the house construction has been completed, and now it is the work of the details. If it can be carried out at the same time, so many talents will not be regarded as idle resources, and the progress will be accelerated.

For lunch, the fish and meat that had been sacrificed were used, but there was only one pot. Ding Shitou consulted the opinions of the teenagers, first steamed the steamed buns, then made braised pork, and finally made fish soup.

The steamed buns can also be eaten cold. They are happy to eat two big dishes today, even if they are served with cold water.

Continue to eat steamed buns at night without side dishes.

Everyone naturally chose to have a good meal, so Ding Shitou was not polite to them. He took the spoon at noon and taught them how to slice fish with a knife.

After the meal, Sister Xiaofu cleaned up the kitchen. She took Ding Dian up the mountain. Everyone was surprised to see that they didn't bring a basket.

"I'm going to chop some bamboo and come back to make counting sticks." Ding Shitou explained, and set off with an embroidered hatchet.

In the afternoon, I really came back with two bundles of thin bamboo, and the branches of the thin bamboo were all cut off.

There were already many stone slabs piled up on the open space, and Chen Liu had already brought people to pave the ground.

The soil on the ground is first leveled, sprinkled with a layer of lime to prevent moisture, and then pressed on the pressure plate.They are all standard sizes, so you are not afraid that you will not be able to use them.

There are also two masons who come together, and if there is a place that needs to polish the corners, they will do it on site.

Ding Shitou went to see it. Unexpectedly, the main room was paved in one afternoon. As expected, the floor was paved with large stone slabs, and there were so many people and strength that even the walls were whitewashed.
