When Ning Yi brought Xu Shaonian and Xu Xiaoan to Ning's house, it was dark, and we had dinner at home.

When they arrived, the two men said nothing, took the sandpaper they bought and painted them, and went to the room where the desk and chair were placed. Soon there was a beating sound.

Xu Xiaoan stayed with Ning Xin to help.

She found a small bench and sat on the opposite side of Ning Xin, and took a small rag like her, and carefully wiped the dust in the pores of the stew cup little by little.

Xu Xiaoan and Xu Shao are not at all alike in age.

Xu Shaonian was as thin as a bamboo pole, standing straight there, with an arrogance that could not be concealed.

And Xu Xiaoan is white and fat.

A man who is less than 1.5 meters tall looks to be one hundred twenty thirty catties, the flesh is weak and soft, and his facial features are all squeezed into a ball.

When you meet someone, your face will blush first, and then you will show a humble, flattering smile.

Two small and deep dimples appeared at the corners of the lips with a smile.

It looks particularly like the fat doll in the New Year picture.

Seeing Ning Xin observing her, Xu Xiaoan's face turned red. She buried her head lower and moved more cautiously under her hands.

She didn't hand it to Ning Xin until she rubbed a white porcelain stew cup into light. She timidly asked, "Sister, do you think this is all right?"

"Of course, Xiao An wiped it really clean." Ning Xin He took the stew cup and took a look, and said sincerely.

Xu Xiaoan's face turned red.

Ning Xin put down the stew pot and confessed to Xu Xiaoan: "Xiaoan, you help my sister to tidy it up first, I'll make some tea for you to drink, okay?"

Xu Xiaoan suddenly showed an uneasy expression: "No need. Sister, I am not thirsty."

"And your brother and my brother."



Ning Xin blinked at her mischievously, and whispered in a very intimate tone: "I still have to count on them to help me, I have to please." Xu Xiaoan obviously did not expect that Ning Xin would actually treat her. Saying this, he opened his mouth in surprise.

But at the same time, she had a feeling of being trusted again, and light was brought out in her excited eyes.

She nodded vigorously, and said: "Sister, go, I promise to wipe them out and wipe them clean!"

Ning Xin went to the kitchen and cut a watermelon.

She dug out the melon flesh and put it in a large bowl, took the melon skin and shredded it, then took out the corn silk she had collected before, washed it and put it in a pot together with the melon skin and shreds.

After it was boiled and poured into a bowl, Ning Xin went to the flower garden and picked a few mint leaves, washed them and put them in the bowl.

Then she took out some of the bean paste buns made tonight and put them in a bamboo basket, took out a few small pieces of crushed ice from the homemade refrigerator tightly wrapped in quilts and put them in a tea bowl.

Finally, on a tray, the brewed tea, bean bags and watermelon were brought to the room where the two men worked.

"Brother, you and Xu Shaonian have a rest for a while. They haven't stopped since entering the door, and have heatstroke again. Let's have something to eat."

Ning Xin put the tray on the desk and greeted them.

Seeing what she brought, neither of them was polite, and they all gathered around.

Although they had already eaten on the side of the road when they went to find Xiaoan just now, they were all strong young men, their stomachs were like bottomless pits, and no amount of food could be packed.

Can you still be afraid of not finishing it?

What's more, Ning Xin did it, even if Xu Shaonian didn't come often, he knew it was a good thing.

After a bowl of tea came down, Xu Shaonian sighed comfortably.

He put a piece of watermelon into his mouth with a toothpick, chewed it a few times and swallowed it.

Then he patted the chair he was sitting on and asked Ning Xin: "Are you going to open a restaurant in these two rooms? Then how do you plan to clean up this room and get it through? If that's the case, you bought it. These tables and chairs should not be enough."

"I know." Ning Xin nodded.

"However, I only plan to put the table in the middle of the room. I want to make a circle of partitions around here, with triangle iron support, and a stool underneath..."

Ning Xin said as she walked to the wall and gestured to the two people. Look.

In fact, she was talking about the most commonly used decoration method for snack bars in later generations. Fix a circle of boards next to the wall, on which you can put bowls and chopsticks.

Customers eat meals around the partitions, which not only saves space, but also ensures the mobility of guests.

After all, no one can sit against a wall for several hours, right?

But this type of decoration was not common in the early 1980s. At this time, people pay attention to everything that is strong and durable, and a set of tables and chairs can't wait to be used for decades.

It is incredible in people's eyes to nail a row of boards against the wall instead of a table.

"This works?" Ning Yi asked a little hesitantly, "Will it be too crude?"

Xu Shaonian did not say anything immediately.

He put down the toothpick in his hand, took one side of the pen and paper and drew on the paper according to Ning Xin's statement.

Then he pondered for a moment and said, "I think it should work. This saves space and wood. As long as the color of the tables and chairs in the middle is the same, it should not be ugly. Maybe someone will find it fresh. Specially find that place to sit."

After listening to his explanation, Ning Xin smiled.

She feels that this person's brain is very quick to accept new things, and it is not tiring to communicate with him at all.

Better than talking to her brother.

Ning Yi, who was disgusted by his sister, stared at the sketch drawn by his friend for a long time.

Obviously, he was trying hard to imagine the picture he described in his head.

But Ning Yi pondered it for a long time, and didn't think there was anything good about doing that? I don't even believe that someone would specifically find that place to sit.

But Ning Yi knew it well.

He knew that when his mind turned fast, he couldn't compare with his sister or the brother in front of him.

In this case, let them do the brainstorming tasks, and just do the work by themselves.

While Ning Yi was still working on her own psychological adjustments, Xu Shaonian had pointed to the paint bucket placed on the floor and asked Ning Xin: "The paint in the hardware store only has three colors, red, blue and white. We chose blue, you see. Isn't it right?"

Ning Xin hurriedly went over and took a look after hearing it.

As soon as she opened the paint bucket, the pungent smell of oily paint made her stagger.

"This can be left to dry for a few more days after brushing." She said subconsciously.

Xu Shaonian looked at her with an imperceptible smile on the corners of her lips.

"That's why I have to brush it out quickly. Take advantage of the good weather now and get more ventilation."

He said, walking over and dipping a bit of paint with a brush and applying it to the chair legs that had just been polished next to him.

Ning Xin also squatted beside him, leaning her head to look.

The color of the lacquer is a bit darker blue.

A little darker than sky blue, much lighter than navy blue.

Although it is incomparable with the latex paint of later generations, the color is not soft enough. Think of the white walls and blue tables and chairs. In fact, they should be simple and beautiful.

At least in line with her aesthetic.

"Okay, this color is pretty." Ning Xin nodded approvingly.

Then turned his head and looked at Ning Yi: "Brother, do you buy enough paint? If you have enough, paint the partitions the same color? It's so neat."

"It's definitely not enough. I'll buy a few more barrels tomorrow." Ning Yi replied.

At this time, Xu Shaonian was already holding a tape measure in the house and started making gestures.

He frowned slightly, obviously lost in thought.

After seeing the brothers and sisters finished talking, he continued to ask: "Apart from this circle of partitions, what do you plan to do? It's best to say it together now and discuss how to do it properly. According to your idea, the wall is broken. and then replace partition table, that the room space is even greater, do not say you just bought ten tables, not necessarily to buy ten put too full. in addition, the chair is not enough. " "

is not enough to go Buy some. Xu Shaonian, can I leave it to you about the table and chairs? Anyway, you are familiar with Director Zhang."

Today Ning Xin and Xu Shaonian said more than they have said since they met him up to now.

She suddenly discovered that this person was not as arrogant as she thought, and it was difficult to approach him. He may be born with few words.

So she was not polite at this moment, looking at Xu Shaonian with a smile, begged.

Sure enough, Xu Shaonian didn't think this was anything at all, as if even he himself thought that this should be done by him.

Hearing what Ning Xin said, he just gave an "um" and nodded casually without saying a word.

The two ate their food quickly and started to work again.

Ning Xin didn't know until today that all men in this era are skilled craftsmen.

Before, she thought about finding a construction team to do some basic carpentry work. To help her build a bar counter, in addition to make a display cabinet for desserts and herbal tea.

As a result, when she said these ideas, the two people worked together for a while, and they didn't arrive for ten minutes. Not only did the drawings drew, but they even made the budget.
