Siheyuan: Liu Guangtian's happy life

After the last National Day, this song was sung by the capital’s art troupe on Jinshan Mountain in Beijing. The song has been released.

Although the people in the steel rolling mill sang quite well, it could only be said that they were quite well, and they were far behind those in the art troupe.

After all, he is a professional who does this for a living. A few days later, the radio and radio stations were playing this song more than ten or twenty times a day, and even then people still thought it was not enough!

I was also commended and given 1,000 yuan and various receipts as rewards from above.

Needless to say, the leaders of the steel mill were extremely happy and the Red Star Steel Mill became famous all over the country.

The leaders above praised them and gave them credits.

Naturally, the factory could not treat Liu Guangtian unfairly, so they directly rewarded him with 500 yuan, 10 kilograms of pork, a 50-kilogram bag of flour, and a pile of bills, including one for three turns and one ring.

It's just a small matter. What they want is political achievements. Liu Guangtian has made great contributions, so they naturally have to be generous in case they need his help in the future!

Liu Guangtian already had five sets of three-turn and one-ring bills in his hand, but they were of no use at all, as his family had everything they needed and he planned to sell them for money someday.

On a weekend morning, Liu Guangtian was idle at home, watching the three little ones playing in the yard.

The master is still very humane and gives them weekends off, but nowadays children are happiest when they play together.

Toys? What toys do you want? It’s so fun to play with friends!

Besides, in this day and age, there aren’t many toys for kids to play with. They would even swallow their snot if they had a small wooden pistol.

Liu Guangtian happened to have nothing to do, so he planned to make a swing in the yard for the children to play with. He did it as soon as he thought of it!

The scenery of the yard is very beautiful at this time. There are more than a dozen ginkgo trees planted in the whole yard. Because it is autumn, the trees are golden at this time.

The whole yard looked magnificent from the gate. The more Liu Guangtian looked at it, the more satisfied he became. The corners of his mouth were crooked with a smile!

At this time, Old Man Zhang walked up to him and said quietly, "Isn't the scenery beautiful?"

Liu Guangtian was frightened for a whole day, then he came to his senses and said, "Master, it's so beautiful. I can't believe I can still live in such a beautiful courtyard. It must be the good deeds of my ancestors!"

"Damn it, what kind of shitty virtue did your ancestors accumulate? This is my home, you got it cheaply." Old man Zhang said indignantly.

"Hahahaha, Master, once a teacher, I am a father for life. Aren't your ancestors also mine? We are father and mother!"

"I'm planning to build a swing for the kids to play with. I want to make a wooden swing chair with a roof on top, which can accommodate three people at a time."

Old Man Zhang: "Just do it. Tell me what to do. I won't help you. Just do it yourself!"

Liu Guangtian was helpless. There were many books about carpentry in the study. Liu Guangtian had read them all and had some understanding of this aspect, but he had never put it into practice.

The craft of carpentry is extensive and profound, and there is no time to delve into it in depth, but it is not difficult to make a swing chair.

After saying goodbye to his family, he rode his bike to the sawmill, bought some suitable wood, asked someone to deliver it to his house, and then went home to wait.

Soon the wood was delivered. They found an open space on the side of the yard and prepared to start work. The three young ones squatted on the ground and watched Liu Guangtian work.

Xiao Rui: "Dad, what are you doing with all these woods? Are you going to make a fire?"

Liu Guangtian replied: "Dad is going to make a swing chair for you, so you can play on the swing when the time comes!"

The three little ones didn't understand what was going on. What was a swing? They didn't understand and could only wait for Liu Guangtian to continue operating it!

There is everything in the warehouse at home, including all the tools used by carpenters. There are so many things. I don’t have an electric drill, but I have a hand-cranked one, which is very useful!

Old man Zhang was drinking tea on a recliner, glancing at Liu Guangtian and the others. Although he had read the carpenter's manual, he had never done anything with it.

In his early years, he was busy studying and practicing martial arts, so he had no time to do carpentry work. However, he had a good eye, and the flowers, plants, pavilions and terraces in his home were all clearly visible.

Just compare and you can see whether it is good or not.

Liu Guangtian first measured the length with a ruler and made four beams, which were the pillars supporting the ground to maintain balance.

There is no need to drive piles into the ground, just stand it in an A shape on the ground and add a horizontal bar in the middle!

After the uprights are completed, the chairs are made by measuring, polishing, grinding, and nailing them together, and they quickly take shape.

In the afternoon, I continued to work on the ceiling and used hemp ropes to secure the chairs. The work was completed in one day, and only paint and anti-corrosion oil remained to be applied.

It was already evening when Liu Guangtian finished his work. When the little ones came in and saw it, they were immediately very happy.

They scrambled to climb up and sit on the chairs. The old man ran to the back with a smile and rocked the chairs for them. He was very satisfied and thought his apprentice had good skills.

In fact, it is not true. To make this kind of thing, you just need hands. It is not difficult at all. It’s just that personal aesthetic taste is different.

The workmanship is good and beautiful, and the wooden board has a smooth paint surface without thorns.

Those with poor craftsmanship can make one by simply finding a few pieces of wood, but it is normal to get pricked on the butt occasionally.

Swings gradually became more common, especially in the 1980s and 1990s. After the 21st century, swings were made of steel pipes.

Even more exaggerated is the swing on the cliff in the scenic area. The rope is very long and costs more than 100 yuan per time. There is no insurance. The main purpose is excitement!

Maybe people in later generations have too happy lives, especially foreigners, who enjoy bungee jumping, adventures, and free shopping!

Later, it gradually became popular in China, with things like skydiving, roller coasters, and wingsuit flying. To the older generation, these were just playing with their lives!

They don't agree with this kind of thing at all. Life is all about seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune. Who the hell would risk their life when they have nothing to do after eating?

Liu Guangtian felt a great sense of accomplishment. Looking at the wood still left on the floor, he thought that he would build a 56-meter-high wood for Tiezhu someday when he had time, so that he could go out and have fun, receive the envious looks from his friends, and satisfy his vanity!

I'll go to the factory tomorrow to see if they have paint for the swing. If I can get it for free, I'll take it. If not, I'll have to pay for it!

After dinner in the evening, the two little ones were very tired after playing all day, so they took a bath and went to bed early.

After Liu Guangtian came back from the Northeast, he accompanied the little girl for two days and then left her to Tiezhu.

In the days that followed, he was severely exploited by Ruoxi. If it weren't for his strong body and the marrow cleansing pill he had taken, he really wouldn't have been able to bear it.

She kept muttering about why she hadn't gotten pregnant yet, and she was very angry. This made Liu Guangtian suffer. Fortunately, he drank a small cup of tiger penis wine every day, which made him very strong!

There is an old saying that there is no land that can be plowed to death but only cows that are worked to death. My friends should understand this statement deeply.

Those brothers who are bridegrooms every night should not be too happy. Find some time to get a thorough check-up and get treatment early just in case!
