Chapter 179 Groundbreaking

When Li's mother persuaded him, Song Keyen smiled. It seemed that she didn't have much understanding of this matter. Song Keyen smiled at Li's mother and comforted her calmly.

"There is no need to care about these as a human being." Song Keyen said calmly.

When she turned around, Mother Li secretly glanced at her.

Song Keren returned to the room. Zhou Xiaomei was still crying, and Song Keren gently put his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'm the only one day, and I won't let you suffer. During this period, I will keep an eye on you, but you have to go home with me now. Song Keren said.

Zhou Xiaomei was secretly happy after listening to the first half of the sentence and said that she was in her heart. But after listening to the second half of the sentence, Zhou Xiaomei's face sank.

"Why?" Zhou Xiaomei asked.

Song Keyen smiled and gently patted her on the shoulder.

"Grandma and mother are thinking about it. How embarrassing are you to run out like this? Can they not think about you, a girl who runs out? I'll take you back. Don't worry, leave your business to me, and I will try my best to do it. However, if you can't do it, don't blame me!" Song Keren said.

Zhou Xiaomei nodded and looked at Song Keren gratefully.

Song Keren sent Zhou Xiaomei home in person. To Zhou Xiaomei's disappointment, Song Keren did not send a car to see her off, but the two slowly walked home together.

This is not Song Keren's stingy, but Xiao Liuzi went to do business today, and there was no one driving at home.

For good, Zhou's house is not too far away. After a few streets, he arrived at his doorstep.

Spring is just right, and the afternoon sun is warm and precious, like a woman's bright smile. The not plump shade made the sun into several pieces, as if it were the paint of a Western painter.

Song Keyen hesitated in front of his house.

"Go in. I'm going back." She said.

Zhou Xiaomei turned her head and looked at her and said a little arrogantly, "Why, aren't you afraid that I will leave as soon as you leave? Since you have arrived at the door, come in and have a look. Grandma may not have seen you for a long time.

Song Keyen hesitated for a moment, but this hesitation was pulled into the room by Zhou Xiaomei.

The yard is quiet, and there is no one. Song Keyen breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately asked in her heart, is it that she is afraid of anyone?

Are you afraid of Zhou Heng?

She doesn't know.

At this time, Zhou Xiaomei raised her voice and shouted, "Grandma, my third sister-in-law is here."

This voice did not lead Zhou Tang out, but led Zhou Heng out. Zhou Heng took the book in one hand and rushed out of the door. As soon as he saw Song Keren, Zhou Heng's face immediately smiled.

But when Song Keren saw Zhou Heng, he was as cold as frost.

"Sorry, I still have something to do in my store. You can say hello to grandma for me later. I'll go first." Song Keren turned around as he spoke.

Zhou Xiaomei immediately took Song Keren's hand.

"What are you doing? Since you're here..."

"I really have something else to do. Go ahead and see you later. See you two in a couple of days. I'll go first." Song Keren said and couldn't help pushing Zhou Xiaomei's hand away.

At this time, I only heard Zhou Heng shouting behind his back: "It's...but..."

April 14, Song Keren experienced the first groundbreaking in his life, that is, the construction of a toilet.

Building a toilet is not a brisk job, but Song Keyen has strengthened his revolutionary confidence. Be sure to build a toilet at home. You know, she really can't stand the toilet these days.

Let's talk about the toilet first. The smell of the toilet hidden behind the bed is really unpleasant. The inventory accumulated over the years has caused the toilet to emit a unique alternative smell, which is usually mixed with aromatherapy, which is quite special.

And the hut at home, hey, I really don't want to go.

You should know that Song Keren's hometown before crossing was at least in the countryside. She is no stranger to the dry toilet. Although she feels inconvenient, she can only accept the conditions here, right?

But the conditions of the toilet in the Song Dynasty are really... It's really some, well, maybe the conditions of the Zhou family are average. After all, there are too many people. At least the Fang family is a large family, and the problem of the toilet can be basically ignored. But it's not a matter to use the toilet all day long. After thinking about it, it's better to get a toilet.

There is a wasteland outside the backyard of the Fang family. She can dig out a septic tank and build a house on the septic tank to avoid trouble if someone accidentally enters and falls into it in the middle of the night. It's just that the poor neighbors in the backyard are probably going to endure the stench.

There is a septic tank, and there must be sewer pipes.

This problem is a little difficult. There is a certain pressure on the toilet, and almost all the pipes are vertical down, but the problem now is that there is no pipe, and there is no toilet.

Song Keyen smiled slightly. There was no gun or cannon, and he did it himself to enrich his own food and clothing.

She first drew a sketch of the toilet, which looks like a water tank. Song Keren drew a real toilet pattern, but she felt that the craftsman must not be able to make such a toilet. Well, I guess it will take half a day to explain to the craftsman.

If you come down again, it should be the sewer pipe. After thinking about it, I think it should be round, section by section, and stitched together. Therefore, Song Keyen specially added an interface to this.

Of course, Song Keren is not stingy with another silver, that is, the lid of the toilet. This thing is indispensable, but there is no plastic these days, so Song Keyen thought about it and finally decided to use wood.

The absence of plastic does not mean that carpenters cannot make it into a work of art. The craftsmanship of carpenters in the Song Dynasty is so high that he can really give a thumbs up. You can make things beautiful and use without a nail. Song Keren designed the toilet lid and the cushion on the toilet lid. This can be done by Mother Li, but the premise is that the size must be appropriate.

After designing these drawings, Song Keyen found the ruler and carefully measured the size, and handed them to Lao Si.

On the day of the groundbreaking, Lao Si chose a very auspicious day and time. Three bricklayers and two small workers came to help, and these people were used to build two toilets. The big family was really extraordinary.

Even if you can't cover the toilet, you can't cover the dirt wall, right? Green bricks were placed in the yard, the bricklayers were busy with mud and glue, and the yard was busy and dirty for a while.

The laborer was found, and Song Keyen wanted to install the sewer pipe, which was a troublesome job. It turned out that the complete yard had to dig a new ditch, which was not the most unfortunate. The most unfortunate thing was that the flower beds on the southwest feet had to be completely eradicated.

Lao Si was a little reluctant to do this, so he secretly told Master Fang behind Song Keren's back. This yard was designed by the young master himself in those years. Now Song Keyen is going to destroy it. How can he accept it?

Thanks to Master Fang, he let go and said that since it was Song Keren's yard, she could just toss around. Therefore, Lao Si just came to help. To put it bluntly, it was her uncertain future, so she came to help. If Master Fang told her to get out of here, even if he gave Lao Si how much money he would not come.

So, of course, this large amount of money has to be made by Song Keren alone. From customized toilets to sewer pipes, as well as labor and masons, the wages are paid by Song Keren. All this requires at least more than ten taels of silver, which is not a small amount for Song Keren, who is now in financial distress.

In Song Keren's design, this is a room of about three square meters, in which there is a toilet, a washstand and a bath tub. This room has a small window for ventilation. Of course, the room can't damage the feng shui of the whole house, so it is built in a northwest location. The toilet should not be in the north, and the toilet should not be in the same direction as the gate.)

Song Keren not only made a toilet, but also made a washbasin. The washbasin she wanted was very beautiful. On the cyan porcelain was a light cyan lotus flower, and several fish swam by, as comfortable as a poem scroll.

Of course, these take time and take at least ten days to make it. Therefore, in these ten days, Song Keren's house was as messy as a mountain battle.

But it is gratifying that in less than ten days, the toilet came back and the decoration came to an end. The sewer pipes in the yard have been laid, and all the pipes have been glued with a special glue. It is said that this glue is made by grinding oysters in the sea and other things. As long as it sticks, it will not rot, which meets the requirements of Song Keren.

The bricklayer worked very hard to glue the toilet with the sewer pipe, and compacted the soil outside and laid a layer of bluestone slabs. In this way, the toilet is stronger and there is no need to worry about it falling suddenly. Of course, there are other problems. If the toilet breaks down, the whole system will be ruined. Because the whole system is glued with this glue, pulling her hair and moving her whole body, she doesn't want to start all over again.

In this way, their toilet has become a work of art. On the ceramic toilet is an exquisite wooden lid of the toilet, which is covered with a thick cloth wrapped in cotton. Next to the clean toilet, there is a medium-sized wooden bucket full of water. Manual flushing is also clean and neat.

On the washstand made by the carpenter, an irregular hole was knocked out on a marble board. Below is the sewer pipe designed by Song Keren, and above it is a cyan lotus washbasin. Of course, this also needs to be done manually. Song Keyen even installed a cork, which is convenient and affordable.

The bathtub is also made of porcelain, and the cyan lotus is also painted on it. I don't know why Song Keren only loves this cyan lotus. Does the cyan lotus represent bitter life? She doesn't know.

The small bathroom was made like this, and Song Keren did not think he was an outsider. In fact, subconsciously, she doesn't believe that Fang Shaowen has passed away. She always hopes that one day, Fang Shaowen can come back and live a wonderful life with her for the rest of her.
