Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui, who had heard the news, were surprised to see Xu Damao giving Chen Yu 20 yuan to do carpentry. This kid was too good at earning money.
Yi Zhonghai said to Xu Damao," Damao, aren't you burning with money? He's just a child who hasn't grown up yet. How can he do carpentry?"”
"Da Mao, Master One is right. Which woodworking master doesn't learn for eight to ten years before he finishes? It's such a pity to waste such good wood.”Yan Bugui said.
Chen Yu didn't even bother to look at the two old men. He had no way of communicating with these idiots.
He quickly planned the structure of the mortise and tenon, then drew lines and cut them in one go.
It didn't take long for the rocking chair and sofa parts to be made.
After polishing it, it was quickly assembled. In less than half an hour, two exquisite pieces of furniture appeared in front of everyone.
Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were stunned. When did this kid learn carpentry?
Xu Damao excitedly asked someone to help carry the two pieces of furniture into the house. He said to Chen Yu,""Xiao Yu, thank you so much. You can keep the rest of the wood for yourself.”
"Alright, Uncle Damao." Chen Yu said with a faint smile.
Although 20 yuan was nothing to him, it was still a huge sum of money in this era. This was also a way to tell others that Chen Yu could make money. Even if he ate meat every day, it was because he was capable.
Yi Zhonghai cursed himself. If he didn't have such a bad relationship with Chen Yu, he could still suck his blood. In the future, Chen Yu might even be able to support him in his old age. Even if the house collapsed this time, he could still get Chen Yu to help him build the furniture for free. But now, he had offended Chen Yu. Seeing how capable this kid was, Yi Zhonghai hated him to the core.
The feeling of hating someone but not being able to kill them was really unbearable.
Yan Bugui was even more certain that Chen Yu was a genius. This kid's grades were the best in the school, and he was so good at fishing. His calligraphy was comparable to a master, and now he was even so good at carpentry.
For an eleven-year-old child to have such abilities, what else could he be if not a genius?
It seemed that he had to build a good relationship with this kid. At the very least, he couldn't be his enemy. This kid would definitely be amazing in the future.
Seeing that there was still more than half of the furniture left, Yan Bugui immediately had an idea.
He quickly came in front of Chen Yu with a smile and said,"Well, Xiao Yu, since you have nothing to do, why don't you help Third Uncle make a rocking chair? You still have so much wood left.”
Chen Yu rolled his eyes at Yan Bugui and said,"You're thinking too much, Teacher Yan. You're asking for something without anything. How can there be such a cheap thing in this world? It's not impossible for you to have a rocking chair. The supply and marketing cooperative sells one for 80 yuan.”
"What is it? Seventy? Xu Damao just gave you 20 yuan.”Yan Bugui said.
"Doesn't the wood cost money? These are the best red rosewood. You have to have the money to buy them. Otherwise, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative and see if the workmanship and wood are better than mine.”
"Then forget it." Seventy yuan was too much for Yan Bugui.
If he could make one for twenty yuan, he would have done it by gritting his teeth.
"It's good that I don't want it. I still want to make my own bookshelf.”
Seeing that there was no way to take advantage of him, Yan Bugui could only leave dejectedly. Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong also left unwillingly.
Chen Yu used the remaining wood to make an exquisite bookshelf and two lockers. The lockers used a Luban lock, which was equivalent to a password lock. There was no keyhole on the surface, but it could only be opened with a specific method. It could be used to store some things at home.
With the new furniture, the house looked brand new.
Zhou Feng did not expect that her son would earn 20 yuan in half an hour while she only earned 30 yuan a month. However, when she remembered that her son had earned a few hundred yuan in one morning fishing, she did not find it strange. Anyway, her son was capable, so she was naturally happy.
His sister spent the entire afternoon fiddling with her new desk and chair. She didn't even do much winter vacation homework.
Little Fury was also jumping around on its bed. When it was tired, it went to sleep.
His mother, Zhou Feng, was not idle either. She used the high-quality fabric that Chen Yu gave her to make clothes for Chen Yu and Qing 'Er. The style of the clothes was designed by Chen Yu himself.
the next morning
After Chen Yu woke up, he habitually signed in.
"Ding! You have successfully signed in. You have obtained Painting Proficiency, 1 set of painting tools, 3 Lightning Striking Talismans, and 20 Great Unity.”
After fusing with the painting skill, Chen Yu felt that he had become a master of painting. Whether it was Chinese or Western painting, he had reached the level of a master.
Thus, Chen Yu took out his easel and started drawing.
First, he used a pencil as a base draft. Then, he used oil painting and traditional Chinese painting to draw a family portrait.
Chen Yu knew that his mother had always missed his father, so he drew his father in his military uniform in the family portrait. When Little Fury saw that Chen Yu was up and still drawing, it immediately climbed onto Chen Yu's shoulder.
It started to squeak and asked Chen Yu to draw it in as well.
Chen Yu smiled and tapped Little Fury's head. He drew his father and mother standing together. His father was still young and handsome, and his mother was still dignified and beautiful. Then, it was Chen Yu and his sister, Qing 'er.
Chen Yu drew Little Fury on his shoulder.
The background of the family portrait was the Great Wall of China. Little Fury cried out happily when it saw that it was also in the family portrait.
At this time, the mother had finished cooking and came to Chen Yu's room. When she saw her son drawing, she was stunned when she saw the family portrait on the easel.
After a while, he came back to his senses and said,"Little Yu, did you draw this?"
Chen Yu nodded. His mother walked over and looked at the family portrait. Her eyes suddenly became moist as she said,"It's really good."
Looking at his mother's expression, Chen Yu knew that his mother was missing his father.
"Mom, Dad is no longer around. You still have me and Qing 'Er. Our days will definitely get better and better.”
"Yes, Xiao Yu, you're right. Mom still has you and Qing `er.”Zhou Feng smiled.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!(Me too!)" Little Fury hurriedly cried out.
"Yes, yes, yes. You're also our family.”Zhou Feng patted Little Fury's head. She liked this little fellow more and more. She had long treated it as a part of the family, as if it was the guardian angel of the family.
"Xiao Yu, when you're done drawing, I'll take it out later and get someone to frame it. I didn't expect my son to know everything.”
Zhou Feng knew that her son must have his own secrets, but he was her son. The more powerful her son was, the happier she was.
"Okay, Mom. But someone might come to me today to help treat his illness. They'll probably be here soon. If they don't come back by noon, you and Qing 'Er and Little Fury can eat first.”
Chen Yu remembered that he had made an appointment with the old man to come and look for him on the third day of the Lunar New Year. Today was the third day of the Lunar New Year.
"Okay, my son is the most capable. Mom has already sat down for breakfast. Don't be busy first. Hurry up and eat first.”
......
At nine o'clock in the morning, a military car stopped outside the courtyard house.
A young man in military uniform walked down. The person who came was none other than Xiao Li, the guard of the old man who was treated by Chen Yu.
A military vehicle came from outside the courtyard, causing the entire courtyard to shake.
As soon as Little Li walked into the courtyard, Yan Bugui was the first to notice him. He hurriedly walked forward and asked,"Comrade, who are you looking for?"
Little Li glanced at Yan Bugui and asked,""Hello, is Chen Yu staying in your courtyard?”
At this time, Yi Zhonghai also walked out. When he heard that this soldier was here to look for Chen Yu, he quickly asked,"Chen Yu? Why are you looking for Chen Yu? Did that kid commit a crime? I knew it. Chen Yu, that kid, is not a good person. Is he stealing things outside?”
"What are you talking about, old comrade?" Xiao Li frowned and said. Why did he casually frame others?”
Yi Zhonghai was stunned. Could it be that he had made a mistake? His face instantly became a little awkward.
Seeing this, Yan Bugui knew that this comrade was definitely not looking for trouble with Chen Yu. He quickly said,"Comrade, don't listen to Old Yi's nonsense. Chen Yu is a good child in our courtyard. His house is in the backyard.”
Little Li glanced at Yi Zhonghai and snorted coldly. Then, he walked towards the backyard with Yan Bugui.
Chen Yu had saved his chief's life, and the chief had a special identity. He had investigated Chen Yu's situation long ago. He was the son of a martyr, and he had excellent grades in school. They even had records of the people in the quad ganging up on the Chen family's house some time ago. How could they not know who Chen Yu was? Otherwise, she wouldn't have come looking for him.
This Yi Zhonghai had just jumped out to speak ill of Chen Yu. It was obvious that this person was definitely not a good person.
