Chapter 362 Big Courtyard
Chapter 362 Big Courtyard
On the other side is the study and rest area, all separated by screens.
Qin Yan took out all the furniture as usual and put them in order.
As for the bathroom, he simply put a large bathtub in it with a bathtub next to it.
Let’s see how to get a shower there when the time comes. It’s not convenient for Nuonuo to take a bath now.
There are several other rooms in the main courtyard, and there are two small side courtyards on the other side. When the children grow up, they will be allowed to move into the side courtyards.
Qin Yan even specially set up two side courtyards, as he was not sure how many children there were at that time.
The main house in the side courtyard was similar to theirs, with several side rooms, an entertainment area, a study, and even a small kitchen and a small garden.
Qin Yan seemed to have planned his future well, and Shen Nuo felt particularly relieved.
The bathrooms and toilets in these rooms were a problem, so he asked Lin Ping and others to come and fix it in the next few days.
Of course, if they also need it, Qin Yan can also help them buy it. Lin Ping and the others are now rich people, and Qin Yan will not maliciously raise the price.
The backyard is where livestock and poultry are raised, and there is also a large vegetable garden. There is a back door in the wall behind the vegetable garden that leads directly to the mountain.
Their yard is large, so there are doors on three sides, which makes it more convenient to enter and exit.
"Let's go. When the day comes, we can move in."
Shen Nuo looked at the yard, thinking about what kind of flower seeds to buy and let Qin Yan plant them when the time comes.
The yard has been built, but it is not ready for occupancy yet.
Qin Liang and his group have already picked a date for the whole village to hold a wedding banquet as a housewarming toast. At that time, they will set up a buffet on the open space outside and invite those people from Huanghuacheng to come and eat.
Therefore, Qin Yan has been busy discussing the construction of a toilet with the men in Yunzhu Village these days. Originally, he thought that just a few of them would do it.
Who knew that other people were thinking the same thing, except that their septic tanks could be opened from the back of the house so that they could get manure water to irrigate the land.
The fertilizer at this time mainly comes from farmyard manure, and the manure water in the toilet naturally cannot be wasted.
Qin Yan had no objection, but their family didn't need it. Nuonuo had a very sensitive nose and he didn't want to keep those things.
In this way, the men first helped Qin Yan install toilets in all the rooms in the house and also in the houses in the side courtyard.
When decorating the main house, he first put away all the things and let them in only when the house was empty.
He didn't want people to see Nuonuo sleeping in the bed.
After finishing the decoration for Qin Yan's house, Qin Yan also went to other people's homes to help them.
"You know what, this thing called a toilet is really useful."
It is mainly more convenient for the elderly and pregnant women, as they don’t have to rely on others for support all the time.
"That squat toilet is also very useful and clean."
No one doesn't like cleanliness. If conditions permit, who would be willing to squat in a smelly and dirty pit toilet?
"We can just install this thing ourselves, and then we can say that outsiders helped us install it. Don't cause me any trouble, or you won't have to stay here."
Qin Yan said something ugly in advance.
He just didn't want to cause any trouble. If people in the capital knew about this thing, they would definitely want it too.
Qin Yan doesn't want to serve as a toilet for others for the rest of his life.
"Yes, we will never tell anyone."
"Yeah, we all follow Brother Yan. If anyone dares to tell anyone, I will kill him immediately."
They were not joking. Those men had all been to the battlefield and killed people. They had a murderous aura about them. Other men who had not been to the battlefield would subconsciously be afraid of them.
But after all, they grew up together, and they can still play together, as long as you don't cross their bottom line.
For example, now, their bottom line is Qin Yan, so they cannot offend Qin Yan.
But they didn't dare to offend Qin Yan. Qin Yan is now a general. They dared to offend him because they were not afraid of death, right?
After confirming that these people really didn't dare to tell anyone about the matter, Qin Yan didn't say anything more.
After they all learned the installation method, Qin Yan no longer cared about them.
Some families who can bring water down the mountain use bamboo to bring water down from the mountain and use it directly, without having to fetch water.
For those who cannot draw water, they can dig wells and carry water when the time comes.
Perhaps because they were afraid of the drought, all of their homes dug wells, and they dug very deep ones.
Qin Yan's family also has a well, but it's in the front yard.
Qin Yan designed his own yard, which was different from others. The others were just ordinary yards, but it was much better than their previous houses.
Now, every person from Yunzhu Village is worth a thousand taels of silver, which are the rewards from the emperor last time.
After the victory, the emperor gave a lot of rewards to all the soldiers.
Shen Nuo really doubted whether this emperor was trustworthy. How could an emperor always give out money like a boy giving away money?
However, Shen Nuo didn't care. He didn't want the official position, but he took all the money. It was what he deserved.

August twenty-eight.
Today is a good day.
Everyone in Yunzhu Village has cleaned their new houses and moved in the furniture that had been prepared long ago.
There was red paper pasted on everyone's door, and the open space not far from the entrance to the village was filled with tables, chairs and benches.
The sound of firecrackers rang out and people came in from outside in a mighty manner.
Today is the day when the people of Yunzhu Village move, and Qin Yan and Shen Nuo got up early.
They took Song Siyan with them and drove the carriage directly from the City Lord's Mansion to Yunzhu Village.
Song Zhen and the others had not returned yet, so Qin Liang helped them put up red paper and opened the door, which meant they had moved in.
They invited the Kitchen God into the house, and their lives could be normal from then on.
Firecrackers were set off at the door of every household, and the open space at the entrance of the village was full of people. They all knew that there was a buffet in Yunzhu Village, so they came.
Among them were some disaster victims who had just arrived in Huanghua City. The people of Yunzhu Village did not chase them away, but let them sit down and eat.
Now that they are here, it would be ugly to chase them away.
Plus, they themselves had come this far and knew too well what it felt like to be hungry.
Qin Yan, Shen Nuo, the village chief, Lin Yuanshan and others were sitting at the first table, and the rest were the men from Yunzhu Village who had returned from the war.
The second row are the people from Huanghuacheng, and after that are the disaster victims who have just arrived here.
At this time, no one would complain about having a bite of food, not to mention that there was meat on the banquet, such as stewed pork with cabbage, stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots, braised fish, and some vegetarian dishes. The staple foods were multi-grain porridge and pork and rice porridge.
Since white rice porridge is not as filling as whole-grain porridge, they let them choose which one to have.
Shen Nuo sat at the table, with Qin Yan next to him and Song Siyan on his right. The two of them protected Shen Nuo like guardian angels.
