Chapter 133
Three pregnancies in this era is a rarity.
Even though Gu Jinchen knew that Luo Ge's body had the help of Spatial Water, making it different from before, he was still a little uneasy.
In the following days, he watched over his wife as if she were a delicate porcelain doll, being extremely careful and protective.
It was rare to see the two of them apart for a long time, as they were often seen together as a pair.
.....Just like this, half a month passed in a simple manner.
After the culprits were caught, Yiyang Town gradually stabilized and returned to its former lifestyle.
The two little ones had also gone back to school.
After this period of time, the progress of the construction site was nearing completion, only needing to set an auspicious date for the topping-out ceremony.
The topping-out ceremony requires specific rituals, so they invited the Feng Shui master from before to set an auspicious date for the ceremony, which was scheduled for the day after tomorrow.
"Luo Ge, my old man has also finished the furniture that you previously ordered for your family's second son. Would you have some time today for me to take you over to take a look? See if there's anything that needs to be changed."
"If there's nothing amiss, we can proceed with the lacquering."
While Luo Ge was inspecting the workshop's operations, Ma Feng Auntie came over and spoke to her.
At that time, ordinary rural carpenters mainly used natural persimmon lacquer, which was harmless to the human body. After applying the lacquer and letting it dry, the furniture could be used.
Unlike modern technology, there were no harmful substances involved that required prolonged waiting.
"Okay, we'll go take a look later."
"Alright."
"Wife, come with me." After finishing the conversation with Ma Feng Auntie, Gu Jinchen rushed in from outside and pulled Luo Ge, wanting to take her out.
"Hm? What's wrong?"
"I want to show you something nice." As he spoke, he carefully led Luo Ge to an empty storeroom in the workshop, with a mysterious look on his face as he opened the door.
Then Luo Ge saw four beds...one large one and three small ones.
That large bed was quite eye-catching, with intricate carvings and patterns visible, showcasing his dedication. The bed frame was also...very sturdy.
It must be said that he did an impressive job in making such a sturdy yet aesthetically pleasing bed frame from such thick wood.
"I've tested it, this bed is very sturdy and won't make any noise no matter how vigorously it's used. What do you think, wife? Do you like it?"
".....I like it." *cough*
"That's great. These few smaller ones are for the children. Take a look, are they like what you described before?"
Gu Jinchen said as he lightly pushed one of the small beds, causing it to gently rock back and forth, just like the rocking cradle that Luo Ge had described.
He had actually made it happen.
"Yes, this is exactly what I had in mind. This kind of rocking motion will help the children sleep better."
Hearing Luo Ge's affirmation, Gu Jinchen grinned widely at her, as if waiting for something.
Seeing his expression, Luo Ge couldn't help but laugh, but she still obliged him with sincere praise.
"Husband is truly skilled. These little beds are even better than what I had imagined."
Upon hearing her words, a sense of pride appeared on Gu Jinchen's face. "As long as my wife is satisfied."
Seeing his expression, Luo Ge felt both amused and helpless, and she reminded him of what Ma Feng Auntie had said earlier.
"Ma Feng Auntie mentioned that the furniture we ordered has been completed. Shall we go take a look together?"
"Okay."
After agreeing, the two didn't delay and headed towards the village.
It must be said that Ma Feng Auntie's family's carpenters were indeed highly skilled, as the furniture met their expectations perfectly, with no issues.
After settling the agreed-upon payment, the furniture matter was settled, and they would deliver it to the new residence once the lacquer had dried.
However, when they finished their business and returned to their doorstep, they were stunned.
Everything was fine when they left, but now they couldn't enter.
The old courtyard they currently lived in was located within the new residence. The outer walls and main gate of the residence were the first parts to be completed, and they had to pass through the main gate to enter and exit.
The previously empty main gate was now filled with baskets upon baskets of gifts, including eggs, pastries, brown sugar, and various other common gift items.
At a rough glance, there were dozens of gift baskets.
