My Favorite Manly Husband

The eighth day of March is a good day for construction and groundbreaking. Early in the morning, the mason drove the stove to carry the tiles and tools to repair the roof for Shen Yanbei.

In fact, Shen Yanbei wanted to ask someone to paint the wall, but what he had done in the past few days has been conspicuous enough, and there is not much money left at home, so the dust on the wall has to be pushed back.

Master Mason Wang is a man in his forties. He has been in this business for many years. He was among the people who were invited by the original owner to build the house.

It doesn't take much effort to just change the tiles, just take off the broken and broken tiles, put mud on the tiles and cover them with new tiles.

There was no cement in ancient times. The masons here used a mixture of lime mortar and yellow clay as a binder when building houses. Shen Yanbei frowned slightly at the gray mud in the barrel.

When he visited the Great Wall before, he was curious about how the ancients completed such a huge project without cement. So he went online to check how the Great Wall was built without cement. The information on the Internet mentions how the ancients built walls.

The earliest was to use yellow mud and straw, and later invented lime mortar, but the strength of lime mortar is not high, it is difficult to build large buildings, and can not be constructed in a humid environment. People tried their best to transform the lime mortar, and they came up with a way to mix the yellow clay with higher viscosity into the lime mortar. People in coastal areas have come up with another adhesive tile topping agent that has much better properties than lime mortar, called mirage. The so-called mirage is the ashes obtained by calcining shells. The effect of mirage and yellow clay is better than ever!

The new lime material with better reinforcement effect than mirage is sanhe soil. If the lime clay and sand are combined with water in a certain proportion, it becomes the ancient Chinese version of "concrete"! This kind of triple soil has been widely used, but later generations discovered a more advanced building material, that is glutinous rice lime slurry.

The sticky glutinous rice soup is mixed into lime mortar. The glutinous rice acts as a natural binder, which greatly improves the firmness of the mortar. Bridges and walls built with glutinous rice lime mortar, such as the Great Wall, have not stood tall for a hundred years.

Shenjia Village is located in the south, many people grow glutinous rice, but no one uses this glutinous rice lime slurry to build houses.

The use of glutinous rice lime slurry has been popularized in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and the corn and peanuts introduced in the Ming dynasty began to be planted in the early time and space...

Thinking of this, Shen Yan jumped his eyebrows, and suddenly remembered something.

Corn and peanuts were introduced during the Ming Dynasty, and another crop was also introduced into China during the Ming Dynasty-pepper!

Shen Yanbei was a little frustrated. There are corn peanuts, why are there no peppers? How come there are no such delicious things as chili!

Just about to sigh, Shen Yanbei remembered another thing!

When the pepper was introduced to the Ming Dynasty, it was not used in diet, but as a valuable plant for viewing!

Shen Yanbei's eyes lit up.

He didn't find the chili in the field. Could the chili at this time be used as a potted plant by a gentry or powerful person at home to watch?

Thinking of this possibility, Shen Yanbei was so excited! But reality poured him a bucket of cold water.

Where does he, a poor talent, know any gentry and powerful?

"Shen Xiucai!"

A shout made Shen Yanbei recover. Turning around, he saw that the two apprentices of the carpenter drove the bullock cart to this side, which was loaded with many plates.

His custom-made furniture is here! Shen Yanbei hurriedly stepped forward to greet the two.

In the spring, the warm sunshine filled the branches, the breeze blew, the flowers and branches swayed, and even people's hearts were swayed. Shen Yanbei politely asked people to move the furniture into the house, and the smile on his face was brighter than that of spring.

The big bed he booked is here! I can have a good night's sleep with my daughter-in-law tonight!

Gu Changfeng was feeding the chicken cubs and ducklings in the backyard, and when he heard the movement, he washed his hands to help, but Shen Yanbei stopped him.

"Your internal injury is still not healed, so don't be foolish." Shen Yanbei grabbed his hand and whispered.

There were people in the room, and Gu Changfeng was a little uncomfortable, but he still obediently grabbed Shen Yanbei. Shen Yanbei was afraid that he would have nothing to do and be bored, so he said: "Zhou Yu will come over later, you can take him to Houshan to practice martial arts."

Gu Changfeng nodded dullly. Shen Yanbei scratched his palm and chuckled, "What do you want to eat at noon, I will make it for you?"

The palm of his hand was scratched and itchy, Gu Changfeng lowered his eyes and said, "I want to eat everything you make."

Hearing this, Shen Yanbei squinted his eyes: "Go, I'll call you to eat at some point."

Gu Changfeng raised his eyes to look at him, made an "um" and left the door.

The two carpenters and apprentices who were assembling the cabinet looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Isn't it that Shen Xiucai is extremely displeased with her husband and only works as a slave?

Yes, last time I saw those pair moving at the dock with my own eyes!

But the atmosphere of the two people talking softly just now is not like that at all!

Do you think this Shen Xiucai seems to have changed? Last time I looked at him from a distance, I just thought this man was incredibly arrogant. But now...looks old and kind?

...

Seeing the two people stand up the cabinet, Shen Yanbei smiled slightly and said, "It's hard work to put the cabinet on this end." In order to place these new furniture, he specially cleaned up one of the vacant rooms. The windows are bright and clean, and they seem to have a sense of decorating a new house.

The two were flattered and dared not communicate in private anymore, and carefully moved the cabinet over.

These days, there are no nails and screws, but both houses and ordinary furniture are made very strong.

Shen Yanbei was curious about how these pieces of furniture were assembled, and stood aside watching. After discovering the trick, I secretly praised the wisdom of the ancients.

Originally, all the furniture is assembled by a connection method that combines concave and convex parts. Without a nail, the furniture can be made with natural beauty and environmental protection.

The two apprentices were both skilled and quickly assembled all the furniture.

Shen Yanbei was very satisfied with the newly opened bed and cabinet. But the eyes of the carpenter's apprentices were not quite right.

This bed is too vegetarian, just a few wooden boards and beams, not to mention carving dragons and phoenixes, it doesn't even have a carved flower. There is also the small box on the side of the bed. There is nothing on it. It looks like a box...

What is strange is that these simple furniture look quite simple and stable.

Shen Yanbei also knew that his custom-made furniture looked weird in the eyes of the ancients. But no way! It can take a few months to buy furniture, and it can last a year or a half for a long time. He is anxious to get this bed, and he doesn't need such fancy furniture as a big man, so he directly drew modern furniture to the carpenter. The carpenter saw it, yes, there happened to be wood, and it was done in heaven! So he readily gave the money.

Sending away the two apprentices of the carpenter, Shen Yanbei looked up, the sun was rising high and the sun was burning.

"Master Wang, the sun is scorching people. Come down and take a break, right?"

"It doesn't matter, just change these two pieces." Master Wang waved his hand politely, his calm expression full of emotion. When everyone came together to build this blue brick house, the Shen family was full of spirits. Unexpectedly, the time has passed, and the Shen family is down. But it is not too late to make up for it.

Shen Yanbei had to put the water on the table under the shade of the tree, turned around and went into the house to clean up.

The paint painted on ancient furniture is a natural paint made from the sap of the lacquer tree. It has no chemical components harmful to the human body and can be used directly without drying. Shen Yanbei put new sheets and quilts on the new bed made by the villagers, and planned to take a nap here at noon.

He does not intend to wrong himself under the conditions, let alone wronged his wife!

...

Chang Feng took Zhou Yu to find a remote place to practice martial arts. To say that it is martial arts is just looking at Zhou Yu's horse step.

"Take an hourly pace, don't be lazy."

"Yes, Master!" Zhou Yulang replied, looking straight ahead, struggling seriously.

Gu Changfeng sat down with his legs crossed, trying to exercise his breath.

He was injured very badly at the beginning, his meridians were blocked, his breath was stagnant and the same as a waste. The day Shen Yanbei had just passed through, he forcibly conveyed internal force to him, and his injuries worsened. Later, after grabbing a few packs of medicine in the county medical clinic, the symptoms did not cure the symptoms, and the injury did not improve much. However, Shen Yanbei took care of the injury in these days and it improved a lot.

With thick skin, he was treated as a fragile porcelain doll, saying that he was not allowed to do heavy work, but Shen Yanbei didn't let him work at all. Instead, a talented master of Shen Yanbei who had recovered from a serious illness was busy cooking for him...

At first, I was not flattered, but Shen Yanbei looked like I was your husband, and the husband took care of his husband. How could he say Shen Yanbei with his stupid mouth?

When I was overjoyed, I was also apprehensive, always worrying in my heart that this is just a mirror image...

With a "poof", Gu Changfeng sprayed out blood.

"Master!" Zhou Yu was shocked.

"I'm okay, it's just a bruise." Gu Changfeng wiped the corners of his mouth, walked to the stream and squatted down, washing away the blood on his face.

Zhou Yu looked at him worriedly, and Gu Changfeng stood up: "Is there still blood on my body?"

Zhou Yu shook his head. Gu Changfeng said again: "Don't tell him."

No need to ask, Zhou Yu also knows who he is.

"Master, are you really okay?"

Gu Changfeng's answer was to cut off a thick-mouthed tree.

"!!!" Zhou Yu's eyes widened.

"Go and squat." Gu Changfeng frowned.

"Yes!" Zhou Yu hurriedly spread his feet shoulder-width apart and squatted down, filled with shock and surprise.

Feeling that the internal force finally broke through the obstacle and recirculated, Gu Changfeng couldn't help but gather his five fingers. The finger bones snapped, and the arm muscles swelled up, full of explosive power...

For a moment, Gu Changfeng exhaled a stale breath, relieved his strength, and the muscles on his body returned to their normal, full and smooth appearance.

The cold facial lines were a bit softer, and Gu Changfeng's quiet black eyes brought a hint of joy.

Although not great yet, the internal force is unimpeded and it is easy to catch two rabbits alive!
