passionate youth

Chapter 154

In Guo Yan's bedroom.

Half the room is neatly packed with yellow elm furniture, tables, benches, dressing tables, washstands, cabinets, etc.

The northern elm is comparable to the beech produced in the south, and is known as the "Northern Elm South Beech".

Elm is divided into yellow elm and purple elm.

Yellow elm is more common, and the wood is light yellow when it is newly cut, and the color gradually deepens with age.

Purple elm is naturally black and purple, and the heavy color is similar to the color of old redwood.

Guo Lin's craftsmanship is still very good.

The furniture made does not need a single nail, but is completely connected by reasonable mortise and tenon joints.

The style is square and upright, with a circle in the middle of the square, natural and decent, tall and straight and beautiful, combining hardness and softness.

In addition, the grain of elm wood is natural and beautiful, and the texture is tough. After the surface is rubbed with wax, it is very pleasing to the eye.

"These furniture can be sold in the city, at least two to three hundred yuan." Jiang Ping'an praised.

"Not long ago, when I first divided the house, I also bought some furniture, which was less than the quantity here, and it only cost me three hundred."

Guo Lin laughed and said, "It took me three or four winters to make this, it took a lot of effort."

"It cost more than 80 yuan for the wood alone, and I hired people to transport it from the mountains."

At this time, Guo Yan came in from the outside and said:
"Ping'an has already bought a lot of furniture, and some of the furniture here are duplicates. I can pick a few pieces at most."

"You can figure it out, pick out the ones that can be used, and I'll sell the rest." Guo Lin smiled.

Guo Yan smiled and said: "Then I will take them all away, and sell the excess by myself."

"Haha, it's all up to you. The left and right furniture are all for you." Guo Lin laughed loudly.

Guo Yan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer, and I will share with you when the time comes."

"Yes, the more you say this, the more outrageous it becomes." Guo Lin shook his head and said helplessly.

Jiang Pingan answered with a smile, "Well, I'll help you get some food then."

"Can you get it?" Guo Lin's eyes lit up.

These days, nothing is as real as food.

Jiang Pingan nodded and said, "It will depend on the situation at that time. In Yanzi's words, you won't suffer."

"Hehe, if it's anything else, I will definitely refuse." Guo Lin said with a smile.

"If it's food, I won't pretend to refuse. I'll take as much as you give me."

Jiang Pingan nodded and said with a smile: "That's how it should be. If one family doesn't talk about two families, it's too polite to be born."

"Hee hee, brother, you haven't worked in vain these winters, have you?" Guo Yan said with a smile.

"Actually, even if Ping An doesn't send you food, I will definitely find other ways to repay you."

Guo Lin said unhappily: "I'm just your younger sister, and I will buy you a dowry. What do you want in return?"

"I really want to do something to you, so I won't work so hard to make so much furniture."

Guo Yan spread her hands and said with a smile: "Well, I didn't say what I just said."

The three talked and laughed, and when they came out of the room, they saw the two children lying on the benches and falling asleep.

Rural children are tough, and they can fall asleep anywhere when they are sleepy, in the fields, in the vegetable fields, on the grass, on the trees...

After three o'clock in the afternoon, Guo Lin and the others went to the fields to earn work points, and the two children also went to school.

Jiang Ping'an and Guo Yan had a fight, and after packing up, they rode bicycles to the commune together.

"Where do you stay overnight?" Guo Yan asked loudly as the bicycle was speeding.

Jiang Ping'an smiled and said, "Where do you want me to stay? The commune will definitely arrange accommodation."

"I don't think about anything, hehe..." Guo Yan blushed and replied shyly.

Jiang Ping'an rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Duplicity, why are you playing sloppy with me?"

"Okay, I want you to come here." Guo Yan pursed her lips and said with a blushing face.

Jiang Pingan smiled, nodded and said: "That's right, just think about it, just say it, and I won't refuse!"

"What if the commune leaders keep you for a while?" Guo Yan hesitated.

Jiang Pingan laughed and said, "Speaking bluntly, isn't it normal for me to spend the night at my partner's house?"

"Wow! My mother and the others will come to watch a movie in the evening, and we will go back together." Guo Yan said happily.

Soon, the two arrived at the commune.

It's still early.

Jiang Ping'an first met with the commune book, and then went to Director Wei's office for tea.

While chatting, Jiang Ping'an told Director Wei that he wanted to ask Director Wei's wife to be a matchmaker.

Director Wei fully agreed, and said that when the two get married, they must have a wedding wine.

After sitting for a while, Jiang Pingan saw that Director Wei was also busy, so he got up and prepared to leave.

Director Wei hurriedly called Su Hongmei, the women's director, and asked her to take Jiang Ping'an to her home to rest.

Su Hongmei's home is next to the playground of the commune, and tonight's reception will be held at her home.

After dinner in the evening, it was shown on the big playground, which is very convenient.

A few years ago, the original owner and Su Hongmei knew each other.

When the river channel was being built back then, Su Hongmei had approached the original owner and wanted to introduce someone to him.

Not only Su Hongmei, but also many people in the first brigade of Nantai Commune knew Jiang Ping'an.

It can be seen that Jiang Laoshi's reputation is really loud in several nearby communes.

Honest man these days is not a derogatory term, but a compliment, which means that he is honest and works hard.

Rural girls are looking for a partner, and their family conditions are similar.

So in addition to looking at the man's appearance, he also looked at whether he had strength and physical fitness.

Those who work hard and work hard are always more popular.

The three of them left the office compound, went to the street, and were walking towards the playground when they ran into Zhuang Zhenjun head-on.

"Good guy! I didn't expect to meet here!" Jiang Pingan stepped forward to shake hands with him.

Zhuang Zhenjun smiled and said: "I said that as soon as I go out today, there will be magpies, so it should be here!"

"Haha, let me introduce you. This is Director Su of Nantai Commune." Jiang Pingan introduced sideways.

Zhuang Zhenjun shook hands with Su Hongmei, said with a smile:
"I don't need your introduction. Director Su and I are old acquaintances."

The two exchanged a few words.

Jiang Ping'an was not surprised. Zhuang Zhenjun used to run around the countryside a lot, so it was normal for him to know Su Hongmei.

He smiled, pointed at Guo Yan and said:
"This is my partner. My hometown is from the Fourth Brigade here. Now I am an announcer in the Second Textile Factory."

Zhuang Zhenjun shook hands with Guo Yan and said with a smile:
"Then I have to call out brother and sister, and I have to prepare a gift to be worthy."

"And you are quick enough to attack, you can easily succeed in such outstanding girls as younger brothers and sisters."

Jiang Pingan thumped him lightly, then laughed and cursed:
"Don't talk nonsense, we got it right, why did I succeed so easily?"

"By the way, what are you doing in the countryside on a hot day?"

"I'm already a section chief, but I still want to come to the countryside to purchase supplies in person?"

Zhuang Zhenjun shook his head, suppressed his smile, and said, "I can't, I'm here to do something, I just need you to discuss something."

"I wanted to go to the textile factory to look for you after returning to the city, but since I met you here, why don't you delay?"

"No problem, let's talk next time." Jiang Ping'an nodded.

Then he told Guo Yan: "Yanzi, follow Director Su to her house and sit for a while, I will come soon."

"Okay, the business is important, you don't have to worry about me." Guo Yan nodded and smiled.

Jiang Pingan nodded, and walked out of Commune Town with Zhuang Zhenjun.
