It’s Hard For a Good Wife and Mother

Originally, Modai thought about overhauling the house, but now the house collapsed, instead of repairing it, it would be better to simply rebuild the house. Mo Dai asked Mo Guihua and Xiao Xiao about the prices. If they want to build three ordinary houses with earthen walls and tiles, they only need to buy some black tiles. As for the earthen walls, they can be dug from the foot of Yunmu Mountain. , Including manpower wages and so on, it is estimated that three taels of silver are more than enough.

But Mo Dai didn't want to just build earthen walls and tile surfaces, she wanted to build a house with blue bricks and tiles, and also expanded the scale, making it taller and more spacious, and leaving more rooms. There are six main halls, including the main hall. The main hall is used as a living room in the middle, and the reserved space is slightly larger. Two rooms are placed on the east side and three rooms are placed on the west side for people to live in. There are four rooms to be built in the east house, one for miscellaneous goods, one for stacking firewood, one for granary, and one for people to live in. The west house has four rooms, and the children can live in one room each when they grow up. Three more rooms were built in the front room, and the gate was left wider. The middle was used as a passerby, the east side was used as a stove, and the west side was used as a dining room.

In addition, the two-meter-high courtyard wall is built with green bricks in the front yard and the backyard. All the floors of the houses are paved with smooth and flat polished stones, and the ground in the front yard should also be paved. You can also put food or something on the ground to dry.

The pigsty and chicken coop in the backyard had to be rebuilt, and the hut had to be carefully planned. It had to be the size of two rooms, one hut and the other as a bathroom. The hut is designed according to the modern flushing method, and a sewer needs to be dug to lead to the cesspit. The floor in the bathroom is paved with cobblestones, and a large bathtub is built with smooth polished stones. There is a water outlet hole at one end, which is blocked with a live cork. After use, the live cork can be pulled out, and the water flowing out leads to the hut. The cistern can wash away the dirt.

The cesspit is set at the back of the pigsty and can be enlarged and deepened. On weekdays, the excrement and urine produced by the pigs can flow directly into the cesspit. To prevent the smell from spreading, the cesspit can be covered with wood and nailed, leaving an exit for people to fish out from the inside. It is enough to irrigate the ground with manure water, and it can also be sealed with a wooden cover on weekdays.

Considering that the bathroom will be cold when used in winter, a channel can be set at the bottom of the bathroom like a kang for sleeping, so that people can heat it from the outside. Considering the convenience of water, it is best to dig a deep well in the backyard, so as not to have to go to the east of the village to fetch water every day.

In addition to the hut bathroom, the stove room is also a key planning object. First of all, two iron pans, one large and one small, are necessary. In addition, a tin box can be embedded in the middle of the stove near the chimney for an oven, and an iron bucket can be embedded between the large pot and the small pot. A long spout can be exposed from the stove, and a blacksmith can cast a simple valve on the exposed spout. On weekdays, you can pour water into the tin bucket and cover it. When cooking, you can heat the water. When you need it, you can turn on the valve and hot water will flow out, which is very convenient.

In the kitchen, stones can be used to build a storage table, which can be used to stack rice, noodles, grain, oil, pots and pans, etc., and a countertop can also be built, which will make washing and cutting vegetables much more convenient.

When Mo Dai told Mo Guihua, Xiao Xiao, Xu Shaolin and Mo Wuyun about her preliminary plan, they all looked at her like an idiot, thinking she was talking about a dream.

Mo Guihua said: "Daxi, you saw the house collapsed and went crazy, talking nonsense!"

There are dozens of families in Mojia Village, and there are only a handful of families with green brick and tile houses, that is, the family of the patriarch, the family of Mo Alan, the aunt of Mo Daxi, the family of Mo He, the miller, the family of Mo Sudie, the hunter, and the family who sell groceries. Shop Mo Xiaozhu's house. These families are all well-to-do and wealthy in Mojia Village, so they can build houses with green bricks and tiles. And Mo Daxi's house was still a dilapidated thatched house with cracks everywhere, and now he suddenly said that he wanted to build such a luxurious house. Isn't it just talking nonsense? If the house was built according to Mo Daxi's ideas, it might not even be comparable to the patriarch's house, right?

Mo Xiao said: "Daxi, did you get sick from the rain?" Then he kindly stretched out his hand to touch Mo Dai's forehead, pretending to test it out.

To be honest, she really wanted to live in the house Mo Daxi described, especially the hut and the bathroom. What Mo Daxi thought was wonderful!

Xu Shaolin couldn't bear to hit Mo Dai, so he just smiled kindly: "Daxi, as long as the house can live in." The second half of what he didn't say was "There is no need to make so many tricks, how much money will it cost?" what"!

Mo Wuyun didn't make a sound, but Mo Wuqing snorted lightly in disdain, thinking, this woman has really changed, besides becoming eloquent, she has also become a good at talking in sleep!

Mo Wufeng was the only one who looked at Mo Dai cautiously, with complete trust and longing for the new house described by Mo Dai in his eyes.

Mo Dai pursed her lips, not taking everyone's reactions to heart, she will not explain to them now, and when the house is built, let's see if these people will still call her a fool!

Mo Daxi's house is uninhabitable. After discussing with Xu Shaolin and Mo Wuyun's three brothers, Mo Dai decided to rent the three west rooms of Mo Guihua's family for a while. Ten texts.

When Mo Dai gave Mo Guihua a month's rent of 900 Wen in advance, Mo Guihua said nothing, and almost didn't get angry with Mo Dai, but Mo Dai was also a principled person, and said that if Mo Guihua didn't collect the rent , They didn't live in her house, they looked for someone who was willing to pay rent to live in, and they didn't ask her for help in the future. In the end, Mo Guihua had to accept the rent of 900 Wen.

The family has settled down for the time being, and Mo Dai breathed a sigh of relief.

The sky was getting dark, and the rain still continued, but the rain was a little weaker. Because the two families have had lunch not long ago, they are not hungry at the moment, so if they want to have dinner, they will save money. Xu Shaolin and the others are all in the south side room of the west room, only Mo Dai and Xiao Xiao stay in the north side room. Xiao Xiao was tired from driving all the way, and now he was lying on the Kang and sleeping soundly.

Modai touched her throat, but it was still a bit dry and sore, so she thought about making some honey and lemonade.

Xu Shaolin is a good housekeeper, and the things moved from home were all sorted and piled up in the west room of Mo Guihua's house. Mo Dai quickly found lemons and honey. On the table in the Westinghouse, there was a clay pot of warm boiling water prepared by Mo Guihua's husband in advance, and Modai happened to use it to brew honey and lemonade.

Mo Xiaoyu suddenly opened a corner of the curtain of the south side room and poked her head to look at her. Mo Dai couldn't help but raised the corners of her lips and beckoned to him.

Mo Xiaoyu also burst into a smile immediately, and ran towards her from outside the curtain, threw herself to her side and hugged her thigh, looking up at her with her small face.

Mo Dai's heart was so tender that she couldn't help but bent down and stretched out her hands to hug the little guy up. At three years old, the weight was too light.

Seeing the little guy staring at the lemons on the table, Mode smiled again, put him down, freed his hands, cut a slice of lemon with a knife and handed it to his mouth, he subconsciously stuck out his tongue and licked it, Immediately, she wrinkled her small face with sourness, and Mo Dai was so happy that she couldn't bear the smile and endured it very hard.

Modai cut another slice of lemon, put two slices of lemon into the bowl, then scooped a spoonful of honey from the porcelain jar containing honey, poured it in, and finally poured warm water into it. The lemon honey water so adjusted is slightly sweet and tastes very good. Mo Dai picked it up and gave Mo Xiaoyu a mouthful. He seemed to like the taste, his face stretched out, and he grinned at her with a row of small white teeth. When Mo Dai asked him to drink more, the little guy shook his head and said in a childlike voice: "Mother drink, mother Shangzhi (throat) hurts!"

Mo Dai laughed again, endured and endured with all her strength, and finally endured the flash of heat in her eyes again, picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

After that, Mo Xiaoyu followed Mo Dai like a little tail, wherever Mo Dai went, he followed, even to the latrine, he eagerly wanted to follow.

Because of the rain, it is very inconvenient to go to the hut, and Mo Guihua's hut is still open-air without a roof, which makes Mo Dai want to rush to implement the plan of building a new house.

In the evening, Mo Dai took a basin of warm water and scrubbed briefly in the north side room of the Westinghouse. Since she traveled through time, Modai hadn't taken a proper bath, but she could only bear with the limited conditions.

When Mo Dai took off his clothes and took a shower, Xiao Xiao woke up. When he woke up, he saw that Mo Dai's clothes were half-undressed and his skin was exposed. His face immediately turned red strangely, and he hurriedly shouted: "What are you doing undressing?" ? Put it on quickly!"

Modai turned her head to look at her, with a speechless expression of "have you ever seen someone who doesn't take off his clothes in the shower".

Xiao Xiao was at a loss for words for a while, and said with a sneer for a long time: "Hehe, am I afraid that you will catch a cold?" As he spoke, his eyes subconsciously glanced at Modai's body, and he swallowed strangely, secretly envious , The figure is really good, the skin is so tender!

Mo Xiaoyu suddenly opened the corner of the curtain again, exposed her small head and looked at Mo Dai with a smile. Mo Dai smiled happily and helplessly, and was about to urge him to go back to sleep, but at this moment, she heard the sound of someone's footsteps in a hurry. Come on, Mo Dai subconsciously wanted to find clothes to put on her body, but she was a step too late, Mo Wufeng wanted to carry Mo Xiaoyu back to the room, but Mo Xiaoyu pulled the curtain and did not let go. The windless eyes met.
