Chapter 88 Old man, aiming for thousands of miles (Happy New Year!)

In front of Li Jinhang's house, there is a crooked neck tree as old as the old house. It is said that it was planted by the great-grandfather when the house was being built.

At this moment, there were a dozen or so people scattered in front of the old tree, looking towards the door with curious eyes.

The rammed earth wall wraps the body of the building, and the gray tile roof covers it.
The whole building seems to have never changed, it is still so simple and low-key, just like the people in the deep mountains.

The eaves of the door are not high, judging by the height of Davidia involucrata, one has to bend a little to step in.

Prior to this, the lighting of the old house was very poor. After observation, Gongtong believes that the main reason for this may be the rammed earth wall.

In fact, the rammed earth wall is a very ancient construction technique in China, which is accompanied by almost the entire Chinese civilization, with a history of 5000 to [-] years.

In ancient times, it was often used to build city walls and protect houses. Different ethnic groups in different parts of China have their own rammed earth techniques.

Rammed earth walls are also very practical, waterproof, durable, earthquake-resistant, low in cost, easy to obtain materials, etc.
But at the same time, because of its thick rammed earth walls, the window openings and door openings are relatively small, resulting in insufficient lighting in the entire house.

In the renovation of old houses, keeping the tradition means that the foundation cannot be changed and major changes cannot be made.

Therefore, the main changes made by Dove Tong to this old house lie in the re-division of the interior space and the solution of the lighting problem.

They are all carried out indoors, so they are naturally invisible from the outside.

The entire stilted building can be said to hide the universe inside.

"Li Jinxing, why don't you go in?"

"That's right, push the door quickly so we can follow along!"

"Why is it still not moving? You dare not enter your own house?"

Li Jinxing stood at the door with the doll riding on his neck, he was inexplicably nervous and apprehensive.

Seeing his appearance, the villagers behind him urged him impatiently.

"Dad, why are you not moving?"

The baby held its finger in its mouth, looked at the gate of its own house with its round eyes, and then looked at its father. He was a little puzzled, and asked in a childish voice.

"verb: move!"

"Just move, let's go home!"

Li Jinxing came back to his senses, grinned, and agreed to the baby.

Just as he was about to move forward, there was a sudden movement behind him.

Li Jinxing stopped when he heard the sound, and looked together with the villagers.

"Father, why are you here?"

"My lord, you also come to see Li Jinxing's new house!"

"Since when have you cared about this?"

"Father, you're here too!"

Seeing this, some of the villagers couldn't stop shouting.

Hey, look back.

I could only see two old men in the distance, one fat and one thin, followed by seven or eight old guys of similar age approaching grandly.

Either move forward independently, or lean on crutches, but all of them show the aura of turmoil.

The villagers scratched their heads and looked at their parents. After taking a look, they felt that there was something wrong, but they didn't see anything.

"Let's also take a look at Li Jinxing's new home!"

An old man answered loudly.

The old guys in the village often have a twilight look when they are not too old, and these old people in Banwan Village are no exception.

But this time it was different, the children felt something was wrong because of the mental head of the old people.

These old people have excitement and anticipation on their faces.

And the purpose of their trip was not entirely to see Li Jinxing's new home, they had their own plans.

Li Jinxing greeted the old people one by one.

After saying hello, Li Jinxing stood at the door again, reaching out to push the door of his own house.

The crowd behind is divided into two groups, one group is the villagers at the beginning, and the other group is the old people who came later.

A pair of eyes stared at Li Jinxing intently, saying that they were looking at the door that hadn't been opened yet.

This is the third family that Designer Bai has modified, and it took the most time, manpower, and material resources.

They already had calculations in their hearts.

I feel that this change may be better than Shu Ting's family, but it will definitely not be better than He Biao's family.

Because in the eyes of the villagers, no matter how comfortable your house is, it is no better than a hen that keeps laying golden eggs.

It is necessary to push.

The villagers followed suit and poked around.

Don't want to, twists and turns.

At this moment, another voice came from behind.

"Uncle Li!"

Just listening, a crisp voice sounded in everyone's ears.

Li Jinxing stopped moving again.

Hey, can't get in yet.

Who is this? It's really not the right time to come!
The villagers frowned, turning their heads angrily.

Over there, Li Jinxing knew who it was, and grinned enthusiastically at the visitor.

On the path behind him, Gongtong brought Pinellia, Qianhe and the others pacing, and Lao Yang personally carried the camera to follow and shoot.

"Designer Bai, it's you."

"Oh, I didn't expect Designer Bai to rush over here. What kind of blessing did Li Jinxing cultivate in his previous life?"

"Yes, yes, not only did Li Jinhang's house remodel, but also brought other designers here specially!"

"Designer Bai is really conscientious, he is a living Bodhisattva!"

As if changing his face, his frowning eyebrows immediately raised, a smile appeared on his face, and he praised loudly.

Seeing that Bai Gongtong's entire team rushed over, they were startled, and realized that Gongtong attached great importance to Li Jinxing's family.

Li Jinxing came up to meet him, held Davidia David's hand with both hands, and thanked him vigorously.

Gong Tong smiled and nodded.

He looked at the doll who was riding on his father's neck and looking at him curiously.

Under the doll's curious gaze, Gongtong stretched out two hands, one left and the other pinched the doll's face.

Everyone's eyes are on Davidia involucrata.

They saw Davidia involucrata's movements and the doll's slightly dissatisfied murmurs, and then they burst out laughing.

After greeting the villagers, Davidia Davidson passed them and stood in front of the old people.

"Master, aunt, you are here too."

"The weather is good today. It seems that the uncle and the ladies are in good spirits."

Sensitively aware of the changes between the old people and the last time they met, Gongtong exchanged greetings with the old people.

"Designer Bai, hello, hello."

"Thanks to you!"

"You are the great benefactor of our village"

The fat and thin old man happily replied.

The other old people behind them also warmly greeted Davidia involucrata.

Seeing this, the children of the old people not far away nodded secretly in their hearts, feeling that their parents had finally tried their best and knew how to flatter Baitongtong and say good things.

But is the fact really what they think?

Obviously not.

The old people act from the heart!
After summing up the past few days, they consciously saw hope in Davidia involucrata.

Why do old people get late?

It's not that they are too old, it comes down to the fact that they don't seem to be able to help at home, seem to be useless anymore, and are gradually being abandoned by the times
It seems that the traditional old objects and customs of the Buyi people are being forgotten by people
Can't do anything, can only chat and bask in the sun, and is disgusted by his daughter-in-law, so he naturally looks late.

But if these old objects and old customs can be revived, does it mean that these old guys can also be old?

It can also be in the last years, aiming for thousands of miles!
The old people understood that their last hope was on the young designer in front of them.

"Uncle Li, go in and have a look."

Bai Gongtong stood back beside Li Jinxing, smiled and said crisply.

Li Jinxing nodded and responded.

Walking to the door, he took a long breath, then pushed the door with all his strength and entered.

This time, no one disturbed me, I only heard a "creak" sound in everyone's heart
Then the penetrating sunlight gradually spills out from the crack in the door
　Before I knew it, it was the last day of 2016. Whether it was a bumper harvest or a regretful year, the past year was over!Everyone tidy up your mood and prepare to accept more progress in the new year. Good luck!Finally, thank you for your support, thank you Tiehongqi, thank you for the coming of the night, thank you for Feng Qingyang, and thank you every little brother for your reward, thank you!
