Chapter 1993 Meeting Xiao Wenjing again
“We have found the right path today!”
In a small courtyard near Zuojiazhuang, Chu Heng looked at a red sandalwood building in front of him with a smile on his face. Cabinet with inlaid enamel cloud and dragon pattern, This is a typical Cantonese-style furniture that integrates various techniques such as inlaid enamel, filigree enamel, copper hollow flowers, and chiseled copper. The level of craftsmanship is extremely exquisite. Even among the many Ming and Qing furniture he collected, It can also be ranked first-class.
"Good stuff, good stuff!"
He gently rubbed the tangled pattern on the cabinet and couldn't help but sigh again.
Then he took out a large bag of rat poison from the warehouse and sprinkled it carefully throughout the house to prevent these treasures from being damaged by rats. Then he raised his head and checked the roof to see if there was any leakage. , and then came out of the room.
He quickly walked out of the yard and went next door to find the two men looking after the house.
"Oh, you're done, Mr. Chu."
The two brothers were sitting on the kang, drinking happily. When they saw him coming in, they hurriedly put down their wine glasses and handed them one. He smoked cigarettes and invited: "Let's have some drinks together? I went to the guest house of your unit to buy vegetarian lions." Head, it tastes delicious!”
“You guys drink it.” Chu Heng took the cigarette and waited for a man to light it for him, then said with a puff of smoke, “But don’t drink it. "More, please stay alert during the day and night, and don't let anyone steal my furniture!"
"It can't be done, it can't be done. We both understand this, so we can drink two taels each."
The brothers hurriedly promised.
"Just understand." Chu Heng nodded, and warned: "Also, go find Du San later and ask him to arrange for two more people to come over. You guys will take turns watching here and then do it. Keep a few dogs so you can be more relaxed."< br>
“Besides, don’t forget to check the roofs of those houses before spring, and be sure not to let it leak! If the rain soaks my things, I won’t be done with you!”
< br>"Understood."
"Remember."
The two responded.
“Okay, have a drink, I’ll leave first.”
“We’ll see you off.”
“Don’t see it off, we’re not outsiders, let’s go.”
Chu Heng waved his hand, raised his butt and walked out of the house, driving back to Banchang Alley.
That’s it.
He was completely free.
Every day he either spends time with his wife and children or wanders around the city. Today he plays two games of chess with Old Man Lian, and tomorrow he meets someone for a drink. Life is leisurely and boring.
In this way, a week passed in a hurry.
During this week, many things happened in the city, but not many were related to Chu Heng. Those that were worth mentioning and were barely above him were Du San, An Rongyuan and the others. That's the matter over there.
Chu Heng's sudden suspension caused many die-hards in the city to misunderstand this signal and thought that Chu Heng had fallen. So they showed up one after another and caused trouble for Du San'er and the others.
But the problem is not big. After all, Chu Heng didn't really fall. So far, with his secret support, the chaos has been basically eliminated by Du San and the others.
Everything started to get better again.
Well, at least that's the case for Chu Heng and the series of characters under his name.
You can continue playing music and dancing!
Today.
Just after breakfast, Chu Zhecheng walked up to his father, pulled down his pants, raised his head, and said eagerly: "Dad, didn't you say you would do it for me yesterday? "When will you do it?"
"Do it now, let's go." Chu Heng happily bent down and picked up his son, walked out of the main room and walked to the front yard warehouse.
The meaning of "尜尜" is spinning top. Many people have traces of it in their childhood. One end is pointed and the other is flat. It is officially called "gyro", but in some places it is also called "Zuanniu", "尜尜", "binggyo", etc.
The method of playing is a flat, clean and relatively smooth field. First, wrap the whip rope tightly around the 尜尜, hold the whip in one hand, and hold the pointed downward 尜尜 in the other hand, or place the 尜尜 on the ground. superior , then pull the whip quickly, and the whip will stand upright on the ground and spin. Then use the whip to continuously whip the whip to keep it rotating at a stable and high speed. When its speed slows down, you can whip it a few more times.
There are several ways to make 尜尜. Some people just look for a screw knot, throw the coal into the stove and heat it up, then smash an iron bead or glass bead into it. The more sophisticated ones will also pour some into the screw knot. Colored wax oil will look better when turned.
The other is to use wood, sharpen it with a knife, cut it flat, round it, and then insert an iron bead or something like that into the sharp end.
What Chu Heng wants to make is made of wood, but people in large households are very particular about it, so the wood used cannot be the common pine, willow and the like.
After Ya brought his son to the warehouse, he dug out a few iron beads, and found a hammer, a knife, a hand saw and other items. Then, when Chu Zhecheng wasn't paying attention, he took out a round red sandalwood ball from the warehouse. Shaped table legs.
The legs of the table are thick at the top and thin at the bottom. They feel great in the hand and are moderately heavy. He used this thing to hit a sap several times in the early days. Later, when he got a higher status, he never used it again and kept lying on it. Eating dust in the warehouse.
I didn’t think of it until today when I was making 尜尜 for my son. I planned to destroy it and make a few 尜尜 for the children to play with.
“Let’s go!”
With a pile of things, the father and son returned to the backyard.
Because he was worried about dirtying the house, Chu Heng did not enter the house. When he came to the backyard patio, he put all the things on the stone table in the pavilion, then took the table legs, put them on the stone bench and stepped on them with his feet, and then used a hand saw. After a few gestures, I prepared to cut a few sections and make a few more for the children. One for Chu Zhecheng, one for Huniu, one for Xu Jingshu, one for Xu Jingshu, one for Xu Jingshu, and one for Liu Hong...Eh? Has this stupid girl not been here for a while?
Chu Heng, who was drawing pictures, suddenly thought of that little annoying guy. He hadn’t seen it for a long time, but he still thought about it.
“Hey, are you going to use this to make a gauze for your child?”
At this time, Yang Guizhi, who had just finished his work, came to the backyard and saw the table legs in his hand, his eyes As soon as he lit up, he said: "This wood is quite good. Ah, it’s a pity to cut it off. Can you keep it as a rolling pin? The one at home fell on the ground a few days ago and broke.” One." Chu Heng smiled.
"Then don't forget it."
Hearing this, Yang Guizhi didn't stop her and walked into the deaf old lady's house.
Immediately, Chu Heng started to saw, and sawed for a long time before sawing the table legs into several sections. The red sandalwood was hard and difficult to saw.
After he finished it, he took the piece of wood into the main room, sat at the dining table and whittled the wood bit by bit with a knife. Chu Zhecheng stood watching with unblinking eyes, full of joy. Face expectant.
After a while, there was a knock on the door. Chu Heng did not move, and was still concentrating on whittling wood. After a while, Yang Guizhi led the guest in.
It was Xiao Wenjing, the red soldier mother with the huge millstone that she hadn't seen since that day's visit.
