Chapter 155 Song Jin's Sadness
Song Jin was still pressing Shen Xia's arm, down to his fingers, but only to his fingers.
The ring accidentally slipped off.
Song Jin looked at this exquisite and beautiful ring.
I took it in my hand and looked at it curiously.
Although the candlelight was not very bright, the words engraved inside were very clear.
Song Jin paused slightly, sadness emerging in his eyes.
It felt like a piece of my heart had been dug out.
But put the ring back on.
next morning
I had originally planned to go to town to buy furniture.
But the eldest brother heard from Qian’s two uncles that there were many carpenters on the construction site, so he could just buy the wood and do it at home.
And wood is much easier to get back than finished furniture.
Shen Xia thought about it and agreed.
So I agreed.
Let Song Jiang give Uncle Qian five hundred taels.
Together with the five hundred taels given before, the total amount given was one thousand taels.
It’s almost the end of the month and everyone has been working for more than a month, so I’ll pay everyone their wages first.
After handing over the task of purchasing wood to Uncle Qian.
I draw pictures at home.
In this way, Shen Xia painted at home until the 28th.
The table, bench and bed have been almost drawn, as well as the desk. The sizes of these drawings are designed according to the size of the house.
It’s just that I designed a dressing table for the place where I live with my mother.
The dining table is a large round table with a turntable, which makes it convenient for everyone to pick up food.
The round table can seat ten people.
Because the restaurant is large, a folding round table is designed and placed next to it. It can be used when someone is using it and put away when not in use.
Looking at the drawings, they are almost there.
Shen Xia went to the construction site with Song Jiang.
Because Song Jiang's hand injury has not healed yet, Shen Xia doesn't let him work these days.
Shen Xia took Song Jiang to the next door and looked at the main courtyard which had been repaired. The roof had been set up and the tiles were being laid.
The floor of the first floor is also being laid. It is made of very smooth stone slabs.
This is the slate that everyone loved to use during this period.
This kind of ash-free material is also easy to take care of later.
Shen Xia looked at his third uncle and said, "Uncle,"
Uncle Qian looked at Shen Xia coming over and greeted her with a smile: "Xiao Xia is here."
Shen Xia nodded: "Well, I brought the drawings of the furniture, so I'll trouble my uncle to have someone make it. I've marked the quantity and size of each item."
"Okay." My uncle took the drawing.
Because my uncle was busy arranging things, he didn't open it to read.
Shen Xia saw that everyone was busy, so he didn't say much. He just thought that when he was doing it, if he didn't understand something, he could just ask me.
Looking at the yard that is slowly being completed, I feel happy.
Because there were more than a hundred people working, those who made bricks had already started laying the bricks for the wall of the small courtyard in the backyard. In fact, bricklaying was very fast, it was mainly because the carpentry work was slow.
Doors and windows are a delicate job.
Fortunately, my uncle found many carpenters.
Otherwise, I don’t know how long it will take to repair it.
Shen Xia took Song Jiang to see the various fruits and vegetables he planted.
Looking at the melon vines on this ground, there are too many of them.
It has been about a month, and the small pumpkins are still hanging. You can eat them if you want.
But forget it, it’s better to eat big pumpkin.
Shen Xia pulled apart the watermelon vines and looked at the round watermelons one by one, feeling very happy.
"Xia Xia, you know the winter melon and pumpkin, but what kind of melon is this one with strip-shaped skin?" Song Jiang saw Shen Xia looking at the fruit very happily.
Shen Xia smiled and said, "This is watermelon! It is a thirst-quenching fruit."
"Fruits? Growing in the ground?" Song Jiang was puzzled.
Shen Xia nodded: "Yes!"
Shen Xia looked at Song Jiang who was still puzzled and said, "It will be mature in a month. You will know then."
Song Jiang nodded with a smile: "Okay."
Shen Xia saw that there were no weeds on the vines, so he looked at Song Jiang and said, "This field is well maintained. Did you do this?"
Song Jiang shook his head: "No, it was the third brother who took care of it. He takes good care of these melons every day."
Shen Xia smiled and said, "Okay. Let's go back."
As soon as the results came out, I saw Song Yun coming back.
Shen Xia was curious as to why he came back after only ten days of studying.
"Fourth brother." Shen Xia shouted.
"Well, you look at the new house here." Song Yun looked at her and asked.
"Well, isn't the house almost finished? I'm thinking about making furniture. My uncle said I can buy wood. There are many carpenters here anyway, so I can make it directly at home. So I drew some drawings and asked my uncle to have them made."
"Yeah." Song Yun nodded.
Song Jiang asked, "Did you walk back?"
"I took a bus from the county to the town and walked back." Song Yun said truthfully.
"Is Fourth Brother on holiday?"
"Ah."
"When do you usually have holidays and ask brother to pick you up?" Shen Xia asked.
Song Yun looked at Shen Xia, whom he hadn't seen for more than ten days, and found that she had changed a lot and had become a very graceful young lady.
"It's okay, it's not far to walk back from town!"
"You are so thin and it's so hot. What if you get heat stroke?"
Song Yun's mouth twitched. I'm thin, but that's not a nice word.
Then he said, "Every month, we have two days off at the end of the month, and we start the day off in the afternoon before."
Shen Xia nodded and said, "Oh, let's go! Let's go back. Mom must miss you too."
The three of them went back together.
Mother Song looked at Song Yun and said happily, "The fourth child is back."
"Yes, mother." Song Yun nodded.
"Fourth brother," Xiaowu.
"Fourth brother." Xiao Tian
Song Yun looked at the two of them teasing Huanhuan and Xixi and asked: "Did you read seriously during the time when Fourth Brother was away?"
"Yes! Sister tests us every day!" Xiaowu said.
"Um,"
Shen Xia looked at the two of them and said, "Don't bother your fourth brother. He has walked all the way back and must be tired. Let him rest for a while and then you can go play!"
"Okay." The two said in unison.
Song Yun looked at Shen Xia: "Come into the room with me for a moment, I have something for you."
Shen Xia wondered what he could give me.
By the way, the hairpin given to fourth brother should also be given to him.
Then he returned to his room, took out the hairpin, and went to his fourth brother's room.
When I walked in, I saw my fourth brother putting his bag next to the bed.
Watch him take a box out of his bag.
Handed it to Shen Xia: "I heard from my mother that you asked her to make the clothes I'm wearing, so this is a return gift for you."
Shen Xia looked at the small box in front of her.
Gently open it, and you will find a sandalwood hairpin. As soon as you open the box, you can smell a fragrance.
This sandalwood is not easy to find! The price is not cheap either.
"I wanted to buy something else, but I thought you looked better in wood than silver."
"Thank you, I like it very much." Shen Xia picked it up and played with it. It was in the shape of a phoenix feather, her favorite material and her favorite shape.
I really didn't expect that Song Yun also noticed my hobby.
Seeing how Shen Xia liked it, Song Yun felt relieved. He was afraid that she didn't like it.
"Can I help you change it?"
Shen Xia nodded.
Then he turned his back to Song Yun.
Song Yun gently replaced Shen Xia's original wooden hairpin with the hairpin he had given her.
