Chapter 194: Meeting Strangers, Upgrading the Space (Part 3)
"Sister, I went to the wood workshop with Grandpa Li today. Some of our furniture has been made, and it's really beautiful. Both Zhen'er and I love it. You should take a look tomorrow."
The two sisters got into bed, and Xin'er eagerly shared her joy with Mo Yan.
"As long as you like it. When we move to the new house, you and Zhen'er will have your own rooms, so you can decorate them however you like," Mo Yan said, holding her sister's soft hand indulgently.
"Yeah, I'll definitely decorate my room beautifully and invite many friends over to play."
Xin'er said excitedly. Even though it was nighttime and Mo Yan couldn't see, she knew her sister's eyes must be sparkling.
"Many friends? Well, when we move to Liuyang Village later, you should play with the girls your age in the village more. You can't always stay at home alone doing needlework, understand?"
Mo Yan patted Xin'er's hand. This girl was great in every way, but she didn't seem to like interacting with people much. If she didn't communicate more with others now, there would be problems in her future relationships.
"Yeah, I got it."
Xin'er responded loudly. Back in Mo's village, she didn't like going out, not because she didn't like playing, but whenever she went out, others would look at her with strange eyes, and those ignorant kids would call her derogatory names behind her back. It was too painful to hear, and who would sincerely play with her?
The two sisters chatted for a while longer, and Xin'er gradually fell asleep.
Mo Yan entered the space with Xiao Hua and saw another red mark on the merit bead. She knew it was added during the day to help that child.
There wasn't much space left on the merit bead, and an upgrade was imminent. This would provide assurance for the surgery on the red python. Now that the moving day had been set for August 6th, before that, she needed to promote the space's upgrade and resolve the matter of the red python. Otherwise, she would feel uneasy.
It was a bit difficult to find suitable materials for making the drainage tube. If necessary, she would have to use materials from the chicken farm or sheep intestines as a makeshift solution.
As for who would perform the live bile extraction surgery on the red python, Mo Yan couldn't do it herself. She could only provide theoretical guidance on the side, and the person performing the surgery would have to be found by Xiao Ruiyuan himself.
Without the Spirit Spring water, Mo Yan would never have saved the red python. In her past life, those bears were subjected to live bile extraction, which caused permanent wounds and lifelong pain due to sloppy surgery. Instead of agreeing rashly and ending up with such a result, it would be better to let Xiao Ruiyuan swiftly end the red python's suffering with a sword.
The next day, Mo Yan wandered around the streets as usual. Today was calmer, and she didn't encounter any fights or arguments, let alone distressed children.
After some thought, she decided to visit the wood workshop and see how the furniture was coming along.
Li Zhong was always at the wood workshop every day, both to supervise the progress and to prevent the craftsmen from cutting corners or using inferior materials.
Seeing Mo Yan coming over, Li Zhong was somewhat surprised. Learning that she was there to see the furniture, he quickly led her to the backyard where the finished furniture had been painted and was drying in the sun.
The paint was not the usual dark red or other colors but a transparent color as Mo Yan had specifically requested. This not only prevented insects and moisture but also preserved the natural color of the wood. The light yellow color of the wood would make the house feel warmer.
After modifying the patterns on the furniture according to Moyan's suggestions, the finished products indeed looked very good.
Inspired by Mo Yan's ideas, the shopkeeper at the wood workshop made a set of furniture with similar patterns. Within half a day of displaying them, a wealthy family bought them at a high price, delighting the shopkeeper, who had the craftsmen work overnight to make more sets, all of which sold well.
