The mercenary queen traveled through time and space to ancient times and only wanted to farm
Chapter 22: Keep the idea of building a house in mind
Forget it, let’s just tear it down. After all, it’s not built according to my wishes, so it feels a bit awkward.
The new house was built in front of the bamboo house, leaving a yard between it and the bamboo house.
After the main courtyard is built, the family will move to the main house in the front and dismantle the bamboo house. They can also copy an identical one based on the structure of the main courtyard.
Just the backyard has to take the barn into consideration.
Since you have decided to live in the countryside, you must raise some livestock.
After much thought, I still need to slowly think about the layout of the backyard.
Build a separate place for horse stables, pig pens, sheep pens, rabbit hutches, and poultry houses such as chickens, ducks, and geese.
Small processing workshop, large warehouse, kitchen, dining room, servants' room, public toilet...
By this calculation, the backyard is crowded enough.
There are 3 main rooms in the front yard, 2 ear rooms, 3 east and west wing rooms each, and 2 back rooms on each side of the gatehouse, totaling 15 rooms.
You definitely need a living room, and if each person has a bedroom, that means 1 rooms will be occupied.
If each room is equipped with a study, there will be 1 rooms left that can be used as guest rooms.
After careful consideration, Chen Qingxin decided to build a row of houses in front of the livestock house, which would be used as staff housing and a small processing plant in the future.
The rest of the wasteland was reclaimed and used to grow crops and vegetables.
We still have to dig a well. Yes, first we have to dig a well.
"Nuan Nuan, can you see if the water pump in the underground warehouse can be adjusted?"
When the tabby cat heard this, it cried out as if its tail had been stepped on:
"What are you thinking about, Master? You don't want me to help you move that iron lump, do you?"
Chen Qingxin gave it a thumbs up in his heart: "You guessed it right, smart cat!"
The cat, who was about to become a hedgehog with its fur standing up, immediately became a donkey when he heard his owner being praised:
"It's not impossible. It's a little difficult, but since the master has special needs, I might be able to help you."
Chen Qingxin smiled secretly in his heart, but asked calmly, "What are you doing?"
The tabby cat pointed at its chest with its paws:
"Of course I use my mind, do you think I'm stupid? Do it yourself?
Would you like me to help you install something that’s not particularly conspicuous in front of your bamboo house?
In the future, when we build houses and plant crops, we can use a hose to connect the water. As long as someone keeps pumping water, there will be a constant flow of water. Isn’t that wonderful?”
Chen Qingxin waved his hand: "Don't worry, just know that the water pump can be used. I'll take a rest first."
Nuannuan curled her lips and said nothing more.
Perhaps he had some thoughts in his mind, so he let them go and gradually fell asleep.
The next morning.
The biological clock made Chen Qingxin, his second brother and his third sister wake up early.
Chen Qingying held the soft quilt tightly and refused to let go.
"Eldest sister, I have taken a bath, put on clean clothes, and slept in a quilt that is as soft and warm as a cloud. It is so comfortable!
Our family has never had such a good quilt!
Thank you, elder sister! I am so happy and feel so light all over. "
After Chen Qingying finished speaking, she leaned forward and kissed her elder sister on the face.
"Sister, this quilt is the best quilt I have ever covered myself with. I didn't wake up all night. I really don't want to get up."
Chen Qingwen said this, but he had already gotten dressed, got out of bed, washed his face, and prepared to go out for a run.
Chen Qingxin himself also wanted to stay in bed.
But the rules have been set and must be fulfilled.
"Mother also wants to exercise with you guys, what do you think?" Chen Li's face was full of the word "expectation".
"Okay, from now on, our family will get up at 1:00 a.m. and run for half an hour every morning. When I'm free during the day, I can teach you some martial arts."
When Chen Qingwen heard his elder sister say that he could learn Kung Fu, he couldn't help but cheer:
"That's great. Maybe I can become a man of both literary and martial arts in the future, hehe!"
Chen Qingying was not to be outdone: "I will also study Kung Fu seriously. Ying'er must become as good as my elder sister!"
After he finished speaking, he kicked left and right with his short legs, as if he was now very good at fighting.
Chen Li asked weakly, "Xin'er, do you think mother can still learn Kung Fu at this age?"
Chen Qingxin gave her an affirmative look: "Of course, it's never too late to learn something."
After saying that, he took the lead and ran. In order not to attract attention, they only ran around the bamboo house for half an hour.
Because if it was a little later, other people in the village would start going out.
She didn't want herself and her family to be treated like monkeys.
☆☆☆
For breakfast, we had rice porridge. We took out the beef sauce we had earlier and everyone could pick some to go with the rice according to their needs.
Now the bowls and chopsticks used for eating are all new, and even Xiao Qingwu's wooden bowl has been replaced with a solid jujube wood bowl carefully selected for him from the grocery store.
The spoon is also made of wood and is very finely crafted.
Each of the five people in the family has a wooden drinking cup.
While Chen Qingxin was eating porridge, he remembered that there were dozens of hot meat buns in the space.
Give each person a meat bun.
Chen Li refused and said, "Xin'er, mother just needs some porridge to eat.
You are in the period of growing up, so you need to eat more.
New children have the hardest work, so this is for you to eat.
One for each of the other little ones will be enough."
Chen Qingwu broke off a large portion of his bun and handed it to Chen Li: "Mother, Wen'er will share it with you."
Chen Qingying also cut the bun in her hand into two and handed half to her mother:
"I have a small stomach and can't eat that much. I'll let my eldest sister eat one and leave one for when she's hungry after work."
Chen Qingxin's face turned serious, and he pretended to be angry and said:
"Eat what you are told to eat. Everyone needs to be well fed. If we have to litigate every meal, wouldn't that be annoying?"
Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent.
She curled her lips, slowed down her tone, and continued:
“In our family, everyone is equally important and no one can live without each other.
Because we are family, we share the good times and the bad times.
Mother, you took care of us when we were young, and we should take care of you when you are old.
Qingwen, you shouldn't feel inferior or even blame yourself just because you don't have the ability now.
Today, your elder sister, younger sister, and mother are supporting you in your studies. Will you no longer recognize us as your family members when you become famous in the future?"
"Of course not! You will always be my closest family." Chen Qingwen answered without any hesitation.
Chen Qingxin spread his hands: "That's it, isn't it? So everyone please don't have any psychological burden.
Eat what you want, drink what you want, take good care of your body, and do what you can."
Chen Qingwen held her arm and acted coquettishly:
"I understand, my dear sister! Then, may I ask, elder sister, what should we do today? Should we go out and dig some wild vegetables and bring them back to dry during the winter?"
After saying that, he playfully made the gesture of digging wild vegetables.
Chen Qingxin reached out and tapped him lightly on the head:
"You, you are the head of the family, but you are still not steady!
Didn’t you bring two sets of enlightenment books yesterday?
Go find your Master Li to learn how to read!
I'll check it when I get back tonight, okay? Don't be lazy."
"Eldest sister, are you going out again? Can you take me with you? I can learn to read when I come back in the evening."
Chen Qingwen felt that before he went to private school, he should help his family as much as possible.
My eldest sister was only 9 years old, and I was already 7 years old, and a boy, so I was the head of the family according to the household registration book.
You can't rely on your elder sister for everything.
