The silly and sweet spring of crossing

Encountering such a thing just after entering the city, naturally made the whole group feel very bad.The team of chariots and horses left, and Qiu Baichen and the others also rushed to the new residence.After getting off the car, Qiu Baichen hurriedly found a doctor to look at Lu Ping's wound. Fortunately, Lu Ping's wound looked terrible, but it was only a skin trauma. The treatment was done in time, and there should be no inflammation. After taking the medicine, it will heal within a few days. get well.

Seeing that his mother was injured, He Lin didn't dare to cry in front of Lu Ping, so he secretly went to Qiu Baichen to cry.The child was also frightened by this incident, his face was always pale and his eyes were a little dull.After crying, He Lin's eyes recovered, and he hugged Qiu Baichen's waist.

"Little uncle, I will never let my mother be bullied again." He Lin's voice was still childish, but the promise he made was resounding.Qiu Baichen patted his head.

"Well, little uncle believes in you. Lin'er studies hard and will become a high-ranking official in the future. She will be better than them, and she will be able to protect your mother."

Qiu Baichen poured chicken soup for the children, and he said it very nicely.But everyone knows that chicken soup is a deceptive thing. Although the world is not as bad as people maliciously speculate, it is not so good either. No matter where you sit, you have your own strengths and weaknesses.

The nephew and uncle are very peaceful and full of fighting spirit, but He Lanyuzhi's side is a little tangled.After getting out of the car, Xiao Chuliu was handed over to him again. His hands were clamped under Xiao Chuliu's armpits, and he supported his body, making Xiao Chuliu stand on his lap.Xiao Chuliu was held a little higher by him, her legs moved wildly and she giggled.He Lanyuzhi looked at Xiao Chuliu's and Qiu Baichen's very similar faces and heartless smiles, and didn't know what to say.

"Uncle He, hold it high." When Xiao Chuliu opened his mouth, he showed a mouthful of small white teeth, even whiter than his father.He Lanyuzhi didn't know why his mood was disturbed, not because of that princess, but because of Xiao Chuliu's call of daddy.

He raised Xiao Chu Liu high, and he was not afraid when Xiao Chu Liu was suspended in the air, and he smiled more happily, which made He Lan Yuzhi even more entangled.

Knowing that Qiu Baichen was acting, he taught Xiao Chuliu to call him father, but now that he is back, Xiao Chuliu still calls him uncle like before.However, He Lanyuzhi still worries about it.After all, he is just a young man in his twenties, and he still doesn't understand those twists and turns, so naturally...

Qiu Baichen coaxed He Lin well, and He Lanyuzhi was almost entangled. The carpenter he had hired before also came, and began to renovate the house.

The layout of the houses here is similar to that in Yanglin County, with the main house at the back and side rooms on both sides, but the front of the original place is directly the door, while the front of this side is the storefront, which is larger than the back room.

The decoration of the store is mainly to clear out all the existing tables and shelves, and make new furniture to put them on, so that the lanterns can be placed.Because it is a new store opening, the walls need to be painted, the exterior of the house needs to be refurbished, and a new plaque must be made. Lanterns will be hung at the door, and a big revolving lantern with the name of the store written on it will still be called Jinxiu Lantern. Shop, rotate all day long, so attractive to people.

The storefront needed repairs, and the backyard needed it too.After they came, they cleared out a room and piled everything together.There are two bedrooms in the main room, one for Qiu Baichen and one for He Lanyu.In addition to the bedroom, there is also a living room for entertaining guests.

The kitchen is in the wing room, the wing room on the left is divided, the small room is the kitchen, and the big room is for Lu Ping and He Lin.The wing room on the opposite side is a room without division, and it is used for Wang Xian and the apprentices he will hire in the future.

There are two small rooms on both sides of the main house, which are used as warehouses to store lanterns.

Compared with the original storefront, the space here is obviously a lot smaller, and there is no way to do it. Xinfang City is a place where every inch of land is expensive, and it would be nice to find such a house.

In the past, the guys lived here, and the boss came over occasionally, so there was a big bed for the boss, and several small wooden beds joined together.

The plank bed was moved to Wang Xian, and it was covered with a thick mattress, so it was not uncomfortable to sleep on.Lu Ping and He Lin put together two sheets, scrubbed them clean, spread out the mats they brought from home, and the mother and son slept together.

There is only one big bed and three people left in the main room. Xiao Chuliu has always had his own small bed, which was made by Carpenter Wang before. It is very big and very comfortable for him, so he doesn't have to worry about it, while Qiu Baichen He Lanyuzhi and Helan Yuzhi are about to sleep on the same bed.

"I sleep on the floor." He Lanyuzhi was not used to sleeping with other people, and always thought it was strange, so he proposed to make a bed on the floor. He put the mats on the floor, but was pulled up by Qiu Baichen.

"The weather is so cold now, and the ground is still wet. If you sleep on the ground, you will be sick tomorrow." Seeing He Lan Yuzhi's stubborn look, Qiu Baichen immediately pulled him up and put him on the bed.Although his small body is much weaker than He Lanyuzhi, but he is a man anyway, and he can always impress another man.

So, He Lanyuzhi and Qiu Baichen slept together on the same bed, but of course the quilt was covered separately.Qiu Baichen slept inside, and He Lanyuzhi slept outside. The bed was very big. When they first slept, the two of them occupied each side, leaving more than one person in the middle. It looked very peaceful.

Because they had been on the road for a long time, everyone went to bed very early. He Lanyuzhi slept very deeply that night. He only dreamed when it was almost dawn. He dreamed that someone was strangling his neck, as if he was going to kill him.He Lanyuzhi was startled awake by this dream. When he opened his eyes, he saw Qiu Baichen's face close at hand. The other's arm was on his neck, pressing on his throat, making him feel suffocated.He Lanyuzhi took Qiu Baichen's hand away, got up and put on his clothes, and was about to tie his belt when he saw Qiu Baichen also woke up.

"Wake up so early." Although Qiu Baichen said so, he also yawned and got up looking for clothes.Seeing that he couldn't open his eyes, He Lanyuzhi picked up his clothes from the chair beside him and threw them to his hand.

After Qiu Baichen got dressed, he could smell the smell of rice. Lu Ping got up earlier than them and was already cooking. When they washed up and went out, Lu Ping prepared breakfast and brought it to the table, and then went to Ask He Lin and Wang Xian to get up.

"That's great." Qiu Baichen happily sat down to eat, and helped Lu Ping clean up the dishes after the meal.It was not long before the carpenters and masons came and delivered the bed that had been ordered before, and it took some time for the rest of the furniture to be finished.

Lu Ping was doing embroidery work at home, Wang Xian watched the carpenters and masons at work, Qiu Baichen and He Lanyuzhi went out to other lamp shops together to see what styles they made, and what styles people in Xinfang City liked.

"This is beautiful. The glazed lamp is very transparent. The colored glaze is very expensive." Qiu Baichen has never touched this kind of glazed lamp before, and only made palace lanterns.Making colored glaze requires high temperature. With modern technology, high temperature is relatively easy to obtain. However, in ancient times, the fuel temperature was not enough, and the raw materials of colored glaze were difficult to obtain, which made colored glaze extremely precious.

Usually colored glaze needs to be fired at a temperature of over a thousand degrees. Qiu Baichen looked at the glazed lamp and thought that the temperature for making glass is similar. If colored glaze can be fired, can glass be fired?Glass is a material commonly used in modern times, and it is also a very practical material. If glass can be manufactured, it should be able to make a lot of money.And it seems that the technology of making glass in the West has been around for a long time, I don't know if it has been passed on.

"Don't touch this, you won't be able to afford it if you break it." Qiu Baichen was dressed in very ordinary clothes, and now he was looking at the lamp in his shop, and wanted to reach out to feel the texture of the glazed lamp, but was warned by the assistant.

Qiu Baichen retracted his hand resentfully, and continued to look at the other lights.There are also more types of lights here, but they are all expanded from a few basic lights, and some other things are added.The glazed lanterns in this house are not the traditional style of palace lanterns, but rather have a Western feel. The combination of Chinese and Western styles is exquisite and very beautiful.

The revolving horse lanterns and sky lanterns that Qiu Baichen made in Yanglin County have never been handed over here, which is a good thing for him.

Going out from this store, Qiu Baichen went to another store.In Xinfang City, there is a street that sells lanterns, but other than that, there are also some scattered shops.As long as each shop is made in the same style, many people will come to see it.

The market in a big city is indeed much better than that in a small place. There are more people, there is a big demand, and things are easy to sell.Qiu Baichen and He Lanyuzhi went around, but they didn't find that the lanterns were made particularly well. Most of the special lanterns made by each store were made with great effort in materials, and there were no innovations in other shapes and techniques.It may be because there are many foreigners in Xinfang City, so there are many Western-style lamps, and the sales are not bad.

However, at this time, the Great Chu was powerful and had a lot of exchanges with other countries. Both the sea and land forces were extremely strong. Few people had a foolish mind and thought that foreign countries were good.Everyone's aesthetics are still relatively traditional. Foreign things are mixed in. If it looks good, everyone will buy it, and if it doesn't look good, no one will pay attention.Things from foreign countries must also be close to the style of Da Chu, so that they will be accepted by everyone.

After walking around, Qiu Baichen has not yet visited all the lantern shops, and plans to go out for a walk tomorrow.He and He Lanyuzhi found a restaurant outside and sat down to order a few dishes. Before they finished eating, they saw the noise outside.

"What's going on outside here?" Qiu Baichen called the clerk in the store and asked him what the reason for the noise outside was.

"Guest officer, it's the princess from Jubei Kingdom who came to our Xinfang City to marry King Min, but the Holy Majesty has already granted the prince a marriage. No, the princess is fighting with our future princess." The man said, and went to work again. up.

Qiu Baichen and He Lanyuzhi finished their meal before going out to read the notice.It turned out that because the princess and the queen-to-be couldn't see each other, the magistrate of Xinfang City came out to live a muddy life.It is said that it is to welcome the princess of Jubei to Xinfang City, so a lantern festival will be held after March.

The princesses and queens-to-be of Jubei will find lampmakers to make lamps, and they will compete in the lantern festival.What's outside is the notice of the prospective princess' lamp maker.

A bunch of people gathered here just now, and the notice was still stuck there when they left, but now Qiu Baichen read the content of the notice and immediately peeled it off.
