The day of leaving Guangxu Emperor

Chapter 6 Decoration

Fortunately, the female red in this place is not expensive. One or two silvers were hired by two neat aunts to help. Zhen Xing can't be a female celebrity. In those years, where did she need to learn this?

Although the labor force is cheap, the cloth and cotton are surprisingly expensive. Ten taels of silver were only enough for satin, cotton, cotton and so on, which made Zhen Xing's heart ache. You know, people in this era are not very rich, and not everyone can wear silk. In ordinary farmers, only when their daughters get married are they willing to use silk to make two quilts.

Zhen Xing is busy for a Chinese-style family. The cushions and cushions were designed, and the two aunts excitedly helped Zhen Xing with the quilt corner, hiding a small bag of cotton in the dark.

The sky gradually darkened, the sun fell into the woods, and the bird gate chirped and flew. Carpenter Li squatted on the ground and smoked a cigarette bag with a sad face.

This time, although he didn't build a tree into a toothpick, he just felt awkward. No matter how you do it, you can't get the feeling on the drawing, and you always feel something.

Zhen Xing's requirements for the bed are not so high, just like making a sofa. She repeatedly told her that there is no need for hollowing out craftsmanship. On the one hand, it is convenient to clean, and on the other hand, hollowing out should be counted separately.

It's just a large flat head of the bed, which makes it rare for Carpenter Li to quickly remove his hair. That bed doesn't look like a serious bed. In a word, it's awkward to look at it.

Zhenxing's bed is not a classical Baroque style, let alone a Nordic romantic style. Of course, it will not be the tediousness of Chinese Ming and Qing Dynasties furniture. It's just the head of the flat bed, the end of the flat bed, and two bed boxes that can be used as storage boxes. It looks simple, generous and practical.

Qi Boxong looked helpless and squatted on the ground with Carpenter Li. The sky gradually darkened. Carpenter Li's cigarette bag suddenly turned bright and dark. Suddenly, Carpenter Li jumped up excitedly and patted his head and said, "It's done!"

In the early morning, after Zhen Xing and Qi Bosong came back after watering the ground, they happened to meet the porcelain shop owner with an excited face. It turns out that the toilet is ready. The two guys carried the toilet into Zhenxing's house. Zhenxing looked carefully. This thing was really good. The gray-white porcelain felt cold, and all the designs and sizes were in accordance with Zhenxing's requirements.

Zhen Xing was excited, and the owner of the porcelain shop was even happier. He made something exactly the same as Jingdezhen's export porcelain, which also connected with Jingdezhen for 40 or 50 years. He seemed to be able to see the prosperity of Jingdezhen before his grandfather and father came here.

"Bearly, girl, what do foreign devils use this thing for?" The teacher's excited question and answer.

Zhen Xing was excited to appreciate the crystal toilet in front of her and couldn't wait to hug it in front of everyone. Hearing the teacher interrupt her excitement, Zhen Xing was about to say the word "toilet". Suddenly, she remembered the face of the master and swallowed the horse word of the toilet.

"Oh, decoration, decoration." Zhenxing looked at the teacher and said, in a cold sweat.

The master is puzzled. How can this strange thing be used as an ornament? I can't tell why it looks like an ornament.

Seeing the doubts of the owner of the porcelain shop, Zhen Xing hurriedly smiled and said, "No one can tell what this foreign devil likes. We look strange, but they think it's a work of art."

Hearing the three words "artwork", the owner of the porcelain shop was even more excited, and his self-conscious self-cultivation improved another level. He left Zhenxing's house with a goatee and hummed the "Record of the West Chamber".

The toilet is back, and the decoration is coming to an end. Zhenxing organized Liba to stick the toilet to the sewer pipe, and thicken the soil outside, and lay a layer of bluestone slabs. In this way, the toilet will be stronger, and you don't have to worry about it suddenly falling down.

After tossing for more than half a month, the family of Zhen Xing and the bodyguard Qi Boxong was about to be completed. The sofa entered the living room, and Qi Bosong and Li carpenter worked together to make a small solid wood coffee table according to Zhen Xing's requirements.

Although Zhen Xing is slightly dissatisfied with the sofa, she still feels that the size is larger than she thought, but in general, it meets her requirements.

The beds that Qi Bosong and Carpenter Li have been busy for a few days have also been made. Two identical double beds, one is placed in Zhenxing's bedroom, and the other is placed in Qi Boxong's side bedroom. Zhen Xing spread the finished bedding again. She always liked to sleep in a soft bed. Several layers of mattresses were spread, as if they were in the clouds.

Zhen Xing carefully looked at her proud work. As soon as she entered the living room, the first thing she saw was the shocking red satin cushion on the sofa, and a strong smell of Chinese furniture came to her face.

Through the moon door with a crimson curtain hanging in solid wood, I arrived at Zhenxing's bedroom. Next to a simple double bed is a simple bedside table with an ordinary jewelry box on it. Two dark ordinary wardrobes, two small chair chairs with shortened size, and a small table with a tea bowl.

Looking at Qi Bosong's room, opposite the bed are two special bookshelves, on which are scattered with some books and a few purchased decorations. Next to the two ordinary wardrobes, there are two reduced-scale circle chairs.

Look at their toilet, on the ceramic toilet, on the toilet lid made by a Li carpenter with scraps, a layer of thick cloth wrapped in the cotton inside. Next to the clean toilet, there is a medium-sized wooden bucket, which is full of water.

Look at the kitchen again. Two Liba are carrying two cabinets in. Knowing that the whole kitchen could not be installed, Zhenxing only designed two cupboards by herself. She originally planned to put a dining table in the kitchen. But after thinking about it, because there is no range hood, the oil fume will inevitably fall on the dining table. At that time, how to clean the dark oil fume?

After thinking about it, Zhenxing and Qi Bosong discussed it. Anyway, the coffee table in the room was just a decoration. They simply did not do it, and defined the coffee table as a coffee table plus a dining table.

Qi Bosong admired the design of Zhen Xing. On the one hand, he flattered the status of Zhenfei, and on the other hand, he admired Zhen from the bottom of his heart. It's just a little bit. He muttered in his heart that he didn't know how much money Princess Zhen spent this time.

People can live in their own house. Zhen Xing and Qi Boxong went back to Aunt Zhang's house to pack up. Qi Bosong packed up their simple luggage when they came. While they sat down to rest, Qi Bosong hesitated to ask about his anxiety.

"Two hundred taels." Zhen Xing said confidently.

Qi Bosong was shocked, two hundred taels? Crazy! Either my ears are broken or Zhen Xing didn't make it clear.

"How much?" He asked tentatively again.

"Two hundred taels." Zhen Xing said affirmatively.

Qi Bosong swallowed a mouthful of water, and two hundred yuan was enough to buy another house. Qi Boxong asked tentatively again, "How much money do you have in your little master's hand?"

With this question, Zhen Xing was stunned. In the past few days, she has been busy spending money and forgot to count the money. She didn't know what to do, but Qi Bosong had a good idea for her.

"When we left Beijing, we brought a total of 1,300 taels. Because I was afraid that the little master would be wronged, I tried my best to arrange a better inn, so I spent more than 100 taels on the way. I spent another five hundred taels to buy land and a house; now, the little master has spent another two hundred taels. Therefore, we only have less than 500 taels. Qi Boxong looked at Zhen Xing's face and said on the other hand.

"Five hundred taels is enough." Zhen Xing said with a smile.

Qi Bosong pondered for a moment and whispered, "Five hundred taels is enough for the time being, but I don't know when I can return to the capital, so..."

As soon as she returned to Beijing, Zhen Xing seemed to have been criticized by thunder, and it was like standing in the snow and a basin of ice water drenched from her head. Yes, I probably won't go back to the capital in the next five or six years. Can 500 taels of silver be used to return to the capital?

"Why didn't you remind me earlier?" Zhen Xing said regretfully.

When Qi Bosong saw Zhen Xing's appearance, he was shocked, but immediately put away his distracting thoughts. She is a concubine, the emperor's woman, and she is only the bodyguard responsible for protecting her safety.

He is also gambling. If the emperor wins, he will reward him with glory and wealth; if the emperor loses, he will just live a plain life in this paradise. He was so open-going that he drifted with the tide and did not dare to put too much pressure on himself.

"Forget it, spend it, and then make money!" Didn't the little master also say that when the cabbage is cooked, it will be sent to Yili's restaurant? Don't worry, the boat will go straight to the bridge. Qi Boxong comforted him.

Zhen Xing suddenly remembered that if the two of them were poor, the hard-working house might be fooled. At that time, he would sleep with her, and she was even worried that she would become a beggar.

"You can't sit and eat empty! No, we have to imagine ways to make money! If it goes on like this, we will be miserable when we run out of money!" Zhen Xing said anxiously.

Qi Bosong smiled, comforted her a few words, and picked up her luggage to move!

The new home is full of warm feelings. Everything is arranged by Zhen Xing herself, and there is her painstaking efforts everywhere. Entering this small courtyard, Qi Boxong saluted the master and servant with Zhen Xing. Zhen Xing warned him in a very stern tone that there was no need to be polite during the extraordinary period.

Zhen Xing slept soundly all night. Now she is also a family member. With a sense of happiness, she walked into her dream.

The next morning, the first thing Zhen Xing did was to adopt a big dog. Although there have never been thieves here in the past ten years, and keeping a dog is just a pet, Zhen Xing was afraid that her family would be stolen, so she chose a stray dog from the village and took it home.

Qi Bosong and Zhen Xing hid the remaining part of the silver ticket in a brick under Qi Bosong's bed and put it on the bed. The other part was sewn in the pillow by Zhen Xing. The wardrobe outside only left one or twenty taels of silver for ordinary pocket money.

Zhen Xing did not follow Qi Bo's pine ground, but came to Aunt Zhang's house where she once lived.
