Chapter 319 Cleaning the New House
Chapter 319 Cleaning the New House
Xiao Chiye looked at the house exhibition: "Are you planning to demolish these houses?"
Fangzhan nodded: "This way I can start building from this side, and I won't be afraid of problems later."
Xiao Chiye looked at Xia Wanniang: "Madam, what do you think?"
Xia Wanniang smiled and said, "In the next few days, the furniture I ordered should be delivered tonight."
Fang Zhan smiled and nodded: "That's great, this way I can speed up a bit."
Xiao Zilin's eyes lit up: "Mom, are we moving?"
Xia Wanniang was very happy to see this: "So happy?"
Xiao Zilin was so excited: "Can I have my own study now? I don't have to sleep with my elder brother anymore."
Xia Wanniang looked at him with amusement: "You really don't want to live with big brother and the others?"
Xiao Zilin pouted: "They always disturb my reading."
Xia Wanniang looked at him with amusement: "You live in a yard by yourself, just don't be afraid."
When Xiao Zilin heard that he lived alone, he was still a little scared: "How about I think about it again."
Xia Wanniang looked at him with a smile: "Okay, do you have any plants you like?"
Xiao Zimu shook his head: "I don't have one."
Xiao Zilin: "I like orchids."
Xia Wanniang looked at Xiao Zisen, whose face was almost wrinkled like a bun, and asked, "Where's Zisen?"
"Mom, is there anything good-looking and edible?" Xiao Zisen looked at her expectantly.
Xia Wanniang: "Yes." She looked at Qingfeng and said, "Where is Master Qing?"
Qingfeng was stunned: "And mine?"
Xia Wanniang: "You are the children's teacher, so you naturally have your own yard."
Qingfeng: "Purple bamboo."
Xia Wanniang didn't ask how many people there were in Xuanqing's group. They were the servants of several children, so they had to live in the same yard with the children.
Xuanqing and his friends are children who know how to be grateful and easily contented. The life they have now is something they could not have imagined before.
After dinner, Xia Wanniang and Xiao Chiye went out to digest their food.
The gate that was not installed before has now been installed. It is not the same vermilion color as the ones in the wealthy families in the city, but an ink-colored gate, which looks steady and heavy.
There were no stone lions at the door, but a plaque with the words "Xiao Mansion" was hung on the door. This would be the Xiao family's ancestral home from now on.
Xia Wanniang pushed open the gate of the courtyard. There were still some sawdust and sand in the courtyard, which showed that it had not been cleaned.
She took out a lot of cleaning scrolls from the space and handed some to Xiao Chiye: "Husband, just tear open the scroll."
Xiao Chiye tore open the scroll. He could feel the wind blowing around his body. After the wind blew away, the courtyard was already spotlessly clean.
He looked at the scroll in his hand: "It's really convenient."
Xia Wanniang nodded: "It's quite convenient. We will clean separately and gather in the main courtyard later."
Xiao Chiye nodded. There were quite a few courtyards in their house, and it would take some time to clean them up.
While cleaning, Xia Wanniang decorated the room. The bed in the gatehouse's room and daily necessities were all prepared.
Then the rooms in the front yard, the study, and the central hall for receiving guests were all placed with corresponding furniture and covered with carpets.
Next is the living room. There are only furniture and no other things placed here. They will be placed here when guests come.
Xia Wanniang chose the courtyard with the best lighting for her three children.
Xiao Chiye waited in the main courtyard for a long time but didn't see her, so he came over to find her. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw her looking at the dug pit, thinking about something: "What's wrong?"
Xia Wanniang turned to look at him: "I'm thinking about what kind of tree to plant in Zimu's yard."
Xiao Chiye looked at the yard: "Are there any options?"
Xia Wanniang: "The crape myrtle tree symbolizes the coming of purple air from the east and the bright sunshine; the crabapple tree symbolizes prosperity and good fortune; the white magnolia symbolizes a pure and flawless noble character..."
Xiao Chiye thought about it carefully and said, "With you in our family, we will never be short of money. Why not plant the crape myrtle tree and make him blessed?"
Xia Wanniang nodded, took out the crape myrtle tree from the space and threw it into the dug pit, and the two of them filled it in with the surrounding soil.
She also took out nutrient solution and dripped it around the tree to make it grow better.
Podocarpus symbolizes a prosperous house, good health and wealth, so they planted it in the holes in the yard.
