Chapter 140 Song Cenyue went to see her new house

It was not yet noon, and the team members were still busy working in the fields. Zhang Shengjin's family had not returned yet. Song Cenyue carried the rice mill to Zhang's house, but there was no one there.

After putting the rice mill away, Zhang Shengjin asked Song Cenyue to rest for a while and drink some water, then took her to see her house.

A few dozen meters away from Song Cenyue's house, you can see two people laying tiles on the roof. The tiles on the roof are almost laid, with only a small part left. It is estimated that it will be completed before noon.

Zhang Shengjin led Song Cenyue towards the house. When they were almost in front of the house, the two people on the roof noticed Zhang Shengjin and Song Cenyue and immediately stopped what they were doing to greet them.

"Captain, the educated youth Xiao Song!" they shouted in unison.

"You just take care of your own things and don't worry about us. I just brought Xiao Song, the educated youth, to see how your house is being built." Zhang Shengjin looked up and said to the two people who were building the house.

"The house will be completely finished the day after tomorrow." One of the builders said, and then introduced the progress of the house construction and what was left to be done.

After listening to it, Song Cenyue found that it was just as Zhang Shengjin had introduced to her before. The tiles could be laid this morning, and the doors and windows could be installed after that. Everything could be installed this afternoon. After that, all that was left was to scrape the white lime. The walls would start tomorrow, and the scraping would be completed the day after tomorrow. Once the white lime was finished, the work would be done.

"Masters, you have worked so hard! Thank you!" Song Cenyue expressed their gratitude.

"Don't be polite. We are not doing this for free. We are paid." One of the builders waved his hand and smiled.

"Yes! You're welcome, Mr. Song! No need to thank me!" Another person who was building the house nodded in agreement.

"Two masters, you guys continue with your work. Captain uncle and I will go into the house to take a look." Song Cenyue pointed inside the house. She had never been inside and wanted to see what it looked like.

"Okay." The two builders nodded together and continued laying tiles.

Song Cenyue and Zhang Shengjin entered the house, which was a small courtyard. The courtyard looked a bit messy because there were a bunch of tools for building a house and some unused sand and stones.

"Uncle Captain, let's go to the main house and take a look." After looking around the yard, Song Cenyue pointed to the living room, which is called the main room or the main house in the countryside, to Zhang Shengjin.

"Okay." Zhang Shengjin agreed and walked into the main house with Song Cenyue. The room was quite spacious and of a moderate height, but it looked a little dark because it had not been painted with white lime yet.

After Song Cenyue walked around the main house, she went to take a look at the next room. The room was smaller than the main house, but as a room, it was not small and not narrow at all. It was just like the main house, because the white lime had not been scraped yet and the walls were made of yellow mud, so the house looked a little dark.

But it doesn’t matter. Song Cenyue knows that the walls will turn white after being scraped, and the room will be brighter.

Afterwards, Song Cenyue, accompanied by Zhang Shengjin, went to see the kitchen and bathroom. There was a stove in the kitchen with two burners.

"Uncle Captain, please talk to the people who are building the house later and ask them to also apply white lime to the stove when they are applying white lime to the house tomorrow. This way it will look cleaner and more beautiful." Song Cenyue pointed at the stove and said to Zhang Shengjin.

This stove is also made of earthen bricks, and the outside is covered with yellow mud, which looks ugly. If it is not scraped white, it will become very dirty after a long time of use and will be difficult to clean.

In fact, if you want it to be clean and beautiful, it would be best to have this kind of stove ceramic covered with white tiles, but at this time, you can only think about where to get white tiles.

So there is no other choice but to settle for the next best thing and just scrape the white lime.

"Okay, I'll tell the two builders when we go out." Zhang Shengjin agreed immediately. "See if there's anything else that needs to be done, and I'll ask the builders to do it together." He asked.

Song Cenyue thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing else to do. I just need to scrape the stove top with white ash."

"Okay...what do you think of this house? Are you satisfied?" Zhang Shengjin nodded and asked again.

"Not bad! Satisfied." Song Cenyue smiled.

Although the house was not built very well, and the doors and windows had not been installed yet, and the walls had not been scraped, and it was still a bit messy, with some things here and some sundries there, but the layout was what she liked, so she really thought it was good and was satisfied with it.

"As long as you think it's good and satisfied." Zhang Shengjin looked relieved. He had been a little worried that she didn't like it and was not satisfied.

The two men walked around the house again, looked for a while, and then left. Before leaving, Zhang Shengjin specifically conveyed Song Cenyue's request to the people who were building the house, asking them to scrape white lime on the stove. The two people who were building the house immediately agreed, saying that it was a piece of cake and very simple. When scraping the wall, they could just scrape white lime on the stove as well.

After leaving Song Cenyue's house, Zhang Shengjin parted ways with Song Cenyue because he had work to do and went to find the accountant. Song Cenyue decided to go back to the educated youth point to do clothes. She suddenly remembered that she had a dirty piece of clothing that had not been washed, so she hurried to wash it before the people from the educated youth point came back.

At noon, as soon as Dong Jinhua and the children came back, they noticed Song Cenyue's rice mill and immediately asked Zhang Shengjin, who had already returned home, out of curiosity.

"Where did this rice mill come from?"

"This rice mill looks very old and some parts are rusty. Can it still be used?"

"It shouldn't be possible, after all it's like this. How old is this rice mill?"

"This rice mill belongs to girl Cen Yue. She asked for it from the agricultural machinery factory. It was broken before, and everyone thought it could not be repaired. But girl Cen Yue was very capable and managed to fix it." Zhang Shengjin said with a smile, and then talked about the agricultural machinery factory. He also did not forget to brag about the fact that he had a car in front of his family.

"Is this true? Lao Zhang, you actually took a car!!!" Dong Jinhua was extremely shocked, with a look of disbelief on her face.

"Dad, did you really take the car?" Zhao Xiaomeng also had a look of shock and disbelief on his face.

"Is that really a car you're riding in? Not a tractor?" Zhang Xiaoyun was also very shocked like her mother and sisters-in-law. She couldn't believe it and expressed doubt.

Zhang Shengjin frowned, "Why don't you believe me? Am I the kind of person who would brag like that?... Would I not know whether I'm riding in a car or a tractor?"

"Dad, you are so awesome. You actually ride in a car... A car. I heard that it is the best, most expensive, and coolest car!" Zhang Jianbo shouted excitedly, the young man's face full of excitement.

"Dad, tell me quickly what the car is like and what it feels like to sit in it. Is it comfortable? Do you feel like you are flying to the sky?" Zhang Jianxing was also a little excited and asked his father curiously.

"What are you talking about, kid! What do you mean by feeling like you're going to heaven? It makes you sound like you want me to die!" Zhang Shengjin frowned again and reached out to knock on his eldest son's head.

"Dad, that's not what I meant!" Zhang Jianxing hurriedly shook his head to explain.

After Zhang Shengjin snorted, the Zhang family members described what it felt like to ride in a car, and how luxurious, beautiful, and high-end the car was.

"After hearing what my dad said, I really want to see the car with my own eyes. It would be even better if I could sit in it!" Zhang Jianbo showed a longing expression.

"I also want to see what the car looks like, and whether it's as good as my dad said... But I don't dare to think about sitting in it. How can we have the chance to sit in a car?

Dad had the opportunity to ride in a car, all thanks to Cen Yue, but such opportunities are rare and very hard to come by, and there is only one such opportunity." Zhang Jianxing sighed.

"Yeah!" The others nodded and sighed. They looked like they wanted to see a car and even ride in one, but they all felt it was impossible.

They didn't know that it wouldn't be long before Song Cenyue would be able to fulfill their wishes.
