Lazy people also have spring

Chapter 29 Dozens of Furniture

Not knowing whether An Yi's expression was too sincere and calm, or because of her trust in her parents' love for many years, Candy finally gave up her previous hunger strike and accepted An Yi's suggestion of procrastination.

Let go of the most worrying problem in my heart. During this period of time, I have been unable to eat or sleep well. Later, I went on a hunger strike for sweets. Once my tense nerves were relaxed, all kinds of negative effects on my body started clamoring. I was sleepy, tired and hungry. I can hardly keep my eyes open.

"Okay, since I saw you, I should go back. The most important thing for you now is to have a good meal and sleep, and then you can think about how to deal with your cousin in the future." An Yi smiled Rubbing her head, like a considerate big brother, "By the way, I have said so much, I forgot that I came to thank you, thank you for going down the river and saving me. I came so late , you won't blame me."

"No!" Candy shook her head violently, "I knew you were sick, so I didn't come. And good friends want to help each other, really thank you!"

"Yes, good friends should help each other. If you have any unhappy or embarrassing things in the future, don't hide by yourself. Remember to come to me, or you won't treat me as a friend. It will be very sad." An Yi said solemnly.At this moment, he really realized that because of his shallowness at the beginning, he almost killed this innocent girl's happiness for the rest of her life. If this matter is really irreversible, he must also give this girl a safe haven. , this is his responsibility!

——It's just... when the time comes, maybe I can only feel sorry for him.

An Yi glanced at Wang Meng almost guiltily, and then calmly said goodbye and left like a normal person.

Wang Meng: "..."

Wang Meng was horrified by An Yi's glance, even his sixth sense, which had been tempered many times in life and death, told him: just now, there was something bad about his life's happiness. It happened quietly when there was no defense...

This kind of uneasiness is really inexplicable, which makes Wang Meng particularly concerned.However, no matter how careful he was, he didn't notice any clues, especially after returning from Mi's house, An Yi was like a normal person, eating, drinking, and sleeping, and occasionally cooking on a whim, It seems that he was not affected by the candy thing at all.

Maybe... an illusion?Wang Meng didn't want to think this way. His sixth sense had saved him many times, and he never made a mistake. But after two days of careful observation, he still didn't notice any clues about the source of the uneasiness at that time. I can only let it go temporarily...

Not to mention Wang Meng's unspeakable thoughtfulness, when the two came back from Mi's house, Father An and Anda were still cutting wood to make furniture in the yard.

Few people in the country will buy ready-made complete sets of furniture. They go to the mountains to choose suitable wood, and then cut it back and dry it to dry it by themselves.Because, the only furniture store in Yuliu Town that sells furniture, the cheapest set costs several taels of silver, which can cover the expenses of a family for a year or two, and besides the appearance, it is not durable. Too extravagant.

Therefore, in the countryside, if you don’t prepare the wood in advance and make it yourself when you have a happy event, or you ask someone with good craftsmanship from the same village to help you do it, and then pay them a manual fee and material fee. At most, it is only one or two taels of silver, which is more than the calculation in the furniture city in the town.

What's more, the country people believe that whether they are themselves or fellow villagers, the furniture that has been laid is very practical. From the beginning of a new marriage, it will be used for decades or even a lifetime, and those furniture will not cause problems.In some poor families, a set of furniture can even be passed on for several generations before they die...

The timber of the Anjia can be regarded as twists and turns.Originally, these timbers were used when Father An was young, and Mrs. Zhou was pregnant. He planned to make a dowry for his own daughter if he gave birth to a girl. Unexpectedly, he gave birth to two sons in a row. What about the granddaughter?

Although the youngest son is a qilin brother, there is also the possibility of getting married, but the countryside is no better than the city, and the qilin brother can also set up a family.With their clever minds, except for those who are too weak, they generally do better than ordinary men who only know how to run things in the fields.

Therefore, the parents of An's family also want their son to be an upright head of the family, instead of being surrounded by the husband and children every day in the back house, and gnashing his teeth for trivial matters.

However, a sudden disaster interrupted all this. The son could no longer marry a wife, his body was too weak to support his family, and he couldn't even keep writing for a long time, almost becoming a useless person.Only then did An's father and An's mother come up with the idea of ​​letting their youngest son get married.At least, after a hundred years, the son will have someone to rely on, right?

They thought well, although there were twists and turns, according to the current situation, the son might still be able to recruit a wife, the old couple felt very comforted.Unexpectedly, the younger son's problem was about to be solved, but the elder son had a problem here.

The first girl I saw was about to make a decision, but she couldn't bear the loneliness and Hong Xing cheated; the second one I wanted to see, she put the conditions very low, pointing to marrying and being able to have a son I lived a good life, but the dowry had to be subsidized by my own family, and I didn't even have the materials to make furniture.

Think about it, isn't it.Their family was once broken. If there was wood, they would have sold it for something to eat. How could they keep it?But now that the wedding is approaching, we have to wait two or three years to cut the wood. It must be too late. The people in the surrounding villages who have wood are either not friendly or unwilling to exchange or sell it with them, or their children are also preparing for the wedding. It is hard to meet them. The child is small, so don't rush to use it. The old man in the family is gone, and the coffin needs to be made of wood.

The An family father and son: "..."

Because of this matter, the An family father and son took the Zhao family boy to walk around the streets for several days, went out before dawn every day, and came back after dark, and when they came back, their faces were sad and sighed, so An Yi was blown up come out.

"That's it." An Yi smiled nonchalantly, "Don't we have wood in our house? You can take it and use it. With such wood, let alone a set of furniture, two sets can be made together."

Father An subconsciously glanced at Wang Meng, who was as calm as a wooden man, and said hesitantly, "But those logs are reserved for your dowry."

An Yi noticed his father's small movements, raised his eyebrows, pretended not to know, and said slowly: "Use it, if I get married, based on my vision, I won't be able to solve the problem of furniture, maybe they still don't like it." What about the ordinary goods in our family; if I get married, or don’t get married at all, the wood will be kept for nothing, and it’s better to let the second generation solve the practical problems than make it cheaper for the third generation.”

When Father An heard it, he actually thought it made sense. He exchanged a glance with Mrs. Zhou, and found that his wife was also convinced.But Anda bowed his head in guilt, intending to bear all the consequences and no longer express his opinion.

Under the pressure in front of him, Father An noticed that no matter what he heard, Wang Meng's expression did not change. He thought that he really didn't care, so he nodded with guilt.

So, soon, the wood that had been accumulated for a long time was turned into furniture in the hands of An's father and son.Someday in the future, they will wander around Zhao's house and return to An's house to become part of the new house.

"Are you back? Come in and rest. If you go out just after recovering from your illness, don't get caught up in the wind." Father An raised his head and wiped his sweat. When he saw the two of them coming back, he hurriedly called them to go back to the house to rest, "Big summer Yes, the sun is poisonous, Mengzi, look at Ayi, don't be sunburned."

"Hey, I understand Uncle." Wang Meng nodded obediently, "Uncle, is it much worse? Shall I help you?"

"No, no, you can go back to the house and rest." Father An shook his hand, sat back down on his own, and continued to make gestures on the wood, gesturing to and fro. The burnt wooden stick made a stroke at the exact spot, and shouted: "Boy of the Zhao family, come, give me a hand for your uncle."

"Hey, here we come!" The Zhao family boy, Zhao Hongfang, who has been helping every day since making furniture, heard his shout, put down the wood he was planing, and ran over in two or three steps, "Uncle, what are you doing?"

"You support me and let me saw it open."

"Okay!" The two of them supported each other, acting as if no one else was around, and cooperated quite tacitly, obviously this was not the first time they joined hands.

"Let's go, go back to the house." The ignored An Yi called Wang Meng who was also ignored to go back to the house.After walking two steps, seeing everyone busy, Wang Meng asked An Yi in a low voice, a little embarrassed, "How about I go help elder brother?"

brother?Your name is really smooth, you are obviously older than my brother by a few months.An Yi rolled his eyes, "Wait, it's almost time for dinner, and it's not too late. If you really want to help, there's still time to go after dinner."

After finishing speaking, An Yi ignored him and left without looking back.Wang Meng looked at his back, and there were three people who were sweating profusely and burning hot, and hurriedly followed into the house.

Wang Meng: Although the father-in-law and uncle are very important, the daughter-in-law is even more important.He should listen to his wife's flowers...

"Are you back? Wash your hands and eat." Entering the room, Mrs. Zhou was already setting the table and chopsticks. Seeing the two of them, she first gave Wang Meng a smile and gave instructions, and then said to An Yi, "Ah Yi, Go, ask your father and your brother to have dinner. What time is it, where are you still thinking about wood?"

"Hey." An Yi responded, lifted her feet just after falling into the house, and was about to walk back, only to turn around, was stopped by Wang Meng behind, "I'll go, you go into the house and rest, after running this trip It's also tiring."

If someone does it for you, a fool would not do it.An Yi entered the room as a matter of course, washed his hands, and sat down in his seat obediently under Zhou's angry and funny eyes, waiting for dinner.

In the courtyard, Wang Meng yelled, and the An family father and son and the Zhao family boy put down the wood, wiped off their sweat, and came back exhausted. After tidying up in the sink placed by the door, he stepped into the main room and sat down at the dining table.

I didn't notice it just now. After sitting down, Anda lowered his head, and found that today's dining table is a bit rich and unusual. There are pork ribs and roast chicken. It is rare to see a whole carp weighing more than two catties. He asked his mother with a smile , "Oh, mother, what day is it today, there are fish and meat, it's too rich."

Mrs. Zhou quickly glanced at Wang Meng and Zhao Hongfang, and found that they didn't think much, so she was secretly relieved, and gave Anda a white look, "Just eat what you have, and you can't stop your mouth if you eat so much."

Anda didn't expect Mrs. Zhou to answer him at first, and he didn't care a word when she heard her reply, so he just smiled and ate with chopsticks.Regardless of what it was for, he was tired all morning, and he was very happy when he had a good meal to subsidize his nutrition.As for what it was for, all the good stuff fell into his own stomach, who cares about it!

When a person is extremely tired, he will not want to talk.Anda is young and strong, with good resilience, and he still has the mood and physical strength to say a few words. Father An doesn't want to talk at all.

But Zhao Hongfang was better, because he was young, and the An family father and son took extra care of him. In the end, he was the one with the most physical strength.It's a pity that he and Wang Meng are both outsiders at this time, and it's really hard to say anything. Adhering to the principle of saying more and making mistakes, less talking and less mistakes, and not saying good things, the two of them almost just ate with their heads down when they came to the table, quite "" Keeping your ears shut and only reading the books of sages” is the focus.

As for An Yi, he was the type who was extremely lazy and would not speak unless he could, let alone expect him to.

A large table of people, a large table of food, in the end, Zhou, who had been working hard all morning, did not wait for anyone to say hello to her, so depressed he could only pick up his own food.

Everyone was concentrating on eating their own meals, and soon they were full. When everyone was about to evacuate from the dining table, Mrs. Zhou said, "Wait a minute, while everyone is here, let's discuss something."

"What's the matter, mother, I'm still busy beating furniture." Anda was the most impatient, and asked as soon as he sat down with his raised buttocks.

"What's the matter? It's not about your marriage? Just shut up and listen, don't interrupt." Zhou slapped him angrily, and then said, "Lao An, how is your furniture doing? It’s time to give the dowry gift the day after tomorrow, we have to leave the furniture the day before the dowry gift, do you think there’s enough time?”

"Well... work overtime at night, there must be enough time. It's just..." Father An thought for a while, estimated a rough time limit, and felt that it would be no problem according to the current progress, but when he glanced at the silent Zhao Hongfang, his eyes were a little bit Hesitating, "Hongfang, why don't you go home for the next two days and stay at our house for two nights?"

"Sure, uncle, I'm fine. It's our family's business. If it wasn't for my father's poor health and I couldn't handle it, I wouldn't have tired you and brother-in-law Ada. Don't worry about me. You're welcome." Zhao Hongfang patted his small chest, and agreed very neatly.

Regardless of Zhao Hongfang's young age, he spoke neatly and well-founded, which made An's father a little dissatisfied at first, but he submissive in an instant.With such a brother-in-law to help, Father An thought, even if he couldn't help much in the future, he wouldn't hold back his son.

His son's life can be smooth only if the in-laws who get married are all sensible people and there are no troublemakers.Now I just hope that this kid's vision and luck will be better, and he will marry a sensible daughter-in-law...

Zhao Hongfang had no idea that just because of his confession, his uncle in-laws thought about his future marriage, because he was going to live here for two days, and before work started in the hot weather, he and An's father and Zhou's After saying that, I went home to report.

Having said all that needed to be said, the dinner table was also cleared, and everyone who was full of wine and food went to find a place to rest and hide.

Noon in summer is the hottest time of the day. Working at this time is not only prone to heat stroke, but also the glare of the sun makes people unable to concentrate on their work.That efficiency, adding up to two hours, might as well have rested the body and calmed down the spirit, and when the sun is not so poisonous, it will be much more efficient to work hard for half an hour.

An Yi lay down for several days, and he finally left the bed today. Although his health was not good, he didn't want to lie down again in a short time.Back in the bedroom, he found a book about engineering and read it.

Although he has read this book many times, the design and theory in it, even if he has to read it over and over again, still has a certain charm.An Yi admitted that he was really interested in these things.

—Maybe, I can make a model and try it out myself?

It is really an irresistible temptation to express the theory designed by oneself in reality through experiments and models.But this kind of practice requires not only rich theoretical knowledge, but also strong hands-on ability.

An Yi pursed his lips. His hands-on ability has been inversely proportional to his own intelligence since a long time ago. If he came by himself, regardless of whether his body could bear it, he would not be able to make it if he worked tirelessly until next year. Set the simplest model...

How to do it?

An Yi was worried, and accidentally raised his head, and saw Wang Meng who came to bring him water, his eyes lit up, and there was a move.

"Wang Meng."

"Huh?" Wang Meng raised his head and met his eyes, which were a pair of starry eyes full of stars, so bright that he felt that he had once again sunk into the boundless sea of ​​stars.

"If it's okay, make me something." The voice that seemed to come from the sky said, and then Wang Meng heard his own voice, "Okay."

A misstep becomes an eternal hate.

The ancients never deceived me.With just this one word, Wang Meng no longer has his own private rest time. He either follows An and his son to make furniture in the yard, or takes some scraps of wood to the comfortable room, listens to his instructions, and makes some strange things. Things have completely formed an indissoluble bond with wood.

Of course, after spending a lot more time with An Yi, although he was exhausted, his spirit was still very high.With more and more contact, Wang Meng understands more and more about An Yi, and admires and appreciates An Yi more and more. In this quagmire called "An Yi", he sinks deeper and deeper...

Until the set of water conservancy models was successfully born in his own hands, this kind of appreciation and admiration also reached its peak. Wang Meng knew that he would never be able to jump out of this "quit" again.

Wang Meng thought: Maybe in this life, he is destined to fall on him.Since it is irreparable, let's face it calmly...

Compared to Wang Meng's willingness to accept his fate (maybe he has already accepted his fate?), An Yi has a deeper understanding of Wang Meng after getting along with him for a few days. Something unbearable?

Just as she was thinking, An Yi met someone's idiot expression staring blankly at her face, her forehead suddenly jumped violently, and the book in her hand drew a beautiful parabola, which landed on someone's head "What are you thinking? Go, get me another book!"

Someone let out a blank "Oh", honestly picked up the book that had fallen on the floor, put it back on the shelf, glanced around on the shelf, and then asked a little hesitantly, "Would you like to read the book?" Which book is it?"

comfortable:"…………"

An Yi raised his forehead, feeling that he was so stupid for considering marrying the other party before, and he didn't even want to talk to him, so he pointed at a copy of "Local Chronicles Xuzhou".Unexpectedly, when the book was delivered, he looked at the cover of "The Book of Songs·Qin Shu".

piano book?Is that the so-called love letter? !

Taking a deep breath, An Yi didn't even have the strength to speak.Does this man have any winks?Don't you see he's angry?Unexpectedly, Nanbeizhu gave him a confession book.How could it be possible to take a book facing the other side by mistake and put it on another bookshelf thousands of miles away? Does everyone look like him? !

——Cut, you can't even take the time to express your confession, you're so stupid!
