Chapter 701: New Home
People watching the fun in the village came to Sun's house for several days in a row. When they left, the craftsmen who came to repair the cave also arrived. According to the plan, Shen Long and Shaoan planned to build two stone caves next to the one they live in now. By the way, connect a stone opening to the old kiln and put a brick hat on it; in this way, the three-hole kiln on the first line is a good place with a courtyard full.
There are masons in Mijia Town, and there are a lot of stones, which can be transported from there. After Shaoan and Shen Long went to Mijia Town to see it, they discussed with great interest that they asked the famous stonemason of Mijia Town to carve two lions to squat on the gatehouse. According to the memories of the old people in the village, only Jin Guangliang and his father had stone lions at the gate in the old society.
At that time, the old man Yuhou was working on the old landlord's gate and farming. Now, Sun Yuhou's gate has a majestic stone lion, and it is the only one in Shuangshui Village today.
In Shen Long's opinion, this architectural form is not in line with his aesthetics, and it is a bit too upstart's temperament, but this may be what Shao'an wants to achieve, and the old man Yuhou also likes it very much, which is enough .
In many cases, a house is not only a living function for Chinese people, but also a manifestation of their social status. Many high-end residential project advertisements in later generations will contain words such as highlighting social status. Such a building can be renovated in Shuangshui Village The courtyard is no less shocking to the surrounding people than buying a big villa in the provincial capital of later generations.
The Sun family has been poor for too long. Although Shao'an has become a ten thousand household now, and Shen Long has also become a national cadre, if the old man Yuhou still lives in the old cave dwelling, he still cannot completely change the view of the Sun family from the villagers; At any time, a high-end and elegant residence is still the best choice to show the strength of the family.
Although the old man Yuhou suffered from the misfortune of his eldest daughter, we can see in other aspects that he has no regrets at all now, even his own situation is much more developed; needless to say, he has two boys for money. Food, except for Junwu on the Jinjiawan side, maybe he is the only one in the village.
A lot of grain could not be eaten, and they were reluctant to sell it, so they had to paste it with mud and seal it in the stone warehouse. Ungrained corn cobs are hung all year round; they are as bright as gold, showing the good scenery of a wealthy family.
This summer, there was another bumper harvest of wheat. He set up a bed and asked ten young men in the village to harvest it in two days... During these days, the old man Sun Yuhou came to Shigejie Street to buy pork every now and then, and gave it to those who helped him. Hoop kiln craftsmen eat.
According to Yuhou's old couple's thinking, their courtyard doesn't need to be so ostentatious, not to mention Shao'an is old, it's their old couple.

They are all people who are about to enter the soil, and there are no other burdens at home, so why build such a good place!
But both the eldest and the second boy insisted on building this yard as the best place in the village, and he did not insist on objecting afterwards; he understood the feelings of the children. The Sun family had been impoverished for several lifetimes, and now the children built this yard for them. Mostly to prove to the villagers: The Sun family is no longer the Sun family of the past!
These days, the whole family is extremely busy, especially his Shaoan, who is really busy! He also has to kiln for him and take care of the brick factory. In the past few days, I heard that he is going to talk about "judgment" and plans to contract the brick factory in the village.
Fortunately, Shaoping has been helping to support him, not only helping the hoop kiln at home, but also helping Shaoan take care of the brick factory. It is said that he helped persuade the township leaders to contract the brick and tile factory in the township.
The old man Yuhou was a little confused. It is reasonable to say that Shaoping is now a public family member. Why did he go to the provincial capital a while ago and come back?
He still stayed at home for so long; it wasn't that he didn't like to see Shaoping, but that he was worried that family affairs would affect Shaoping's work, and it was not easy for that unit to ask for such a long leave, right?
However, Shaoping said that his job is different from that of ordinary units. As long as he can submit an article after a while, no one will take care of him. He will have to wait until his new home is built before leaving.
Shen Long completed the entry procedures, and not long after returning from the provincial capital, Lan Xiang also finished her exams. Because she wanted to build a new home, she didn't continue to work at Jin Bo's place, but returned home to help do some things within her ability, and The mother cooks for the workers together, and even helps carry the mud bags.
When it was time to fill in the application for the college entrance examination, the whole family was a little confused except for Shen Long. Yuhou and Shaoan couldn't figure out what the majors set up in the university were for, so the task of helping Lan Xiang choose a major was Only Shen Long can rely on him, he is now a public servant.
Shen Long chooses to respect Lan Xiang's ideas. Now that he and Shaoan are here, Lan Xiang can freely choose the job she likes without worrying too much about practical issues. No matter what she wants to learn, both of them can do it for her. Lanxiang provides a solid backing.
Just like in the novel, Lan Xiang became very interested in the astrophysics major of North China University of Technology. In fact, she didn't know what this major was about. She just instinctively felt that this major was related to the vast starry sky in the sky. She liked Star, also want to study this.
Shen Long didn't object, although he knew that this major would not provide Lan Xiang with substantial financial income in the future, but as long as she likes it, there is nothing happier than working in the industry she likes.
Sometimes Shen Long would have a strange thought, Lan Xiang might have gone to the wrong set, she is so curious about the universe, she really shouldn't appear in this very realistic work, maybe she should be a part of Liu Cixin's novel heroine.
Shen Long wrote a letter to Jia Bing, asking him to get some books related to the starry sky and the universe, so that Lan Xiang could have a little understanding of this major before entering university.
Shen Long and Shaoan were willing to spend money and hired many craftsmen. When the university began to issue notices one after another, the new home was finally opened. There was a brand new stone kiln with three holes on the first line, and it was still wearing a brick hat, surrounded by a wall around the outside. , and then use the same color of green bricks to build a magnificent gatehouse—anyway, Shaoan has plenty of bricks!
This courtyard is now the most beautiful courtyard in Shuangshui Village and even in the entire Shigejie Commune. On the day it was completed, folks from all over the world came to watch the commotion, opening their mouths wide and casting envious glances.
In a sense, this is a "monument" for the Sun family, and the scenery of the Sun family is in this new courtyard.
Just as the joy of the completion of the yard had not begun to dissipate, another piece of good news came, Lan Xiang's college notice arrived.
