Chapter 51 Bed Frame

Chapter 51 Bed Frame

A new day, a new beginning.

After a good night's sleep, Sang Ning and the others got up. The sun hadn't come out yet, but the light was bright.

The sea breeze carries the fishy smell of the sea. It's not refreshing at all, but it's a bit unpleasant.

But everyone was used to it. After brushing their teeth and washing their faces, Sang Ning steamed some mashed yam, made a pot of wild vegetable soup and boiled a pot of eggs, and they had breakfast together.

The eggs vary from big to small. Except for a few wild eggs, the rest of the eggs are unknown, but they are edible and taste good.

The egg white of one egg is pink, but the yolk is transparent. It doesn’t taste like an egg, but rather like jelly. There are three eggs of this kind, and it’s the three girls like Sang Ning who got it.

After eating the eggs, Monana thought for a moment and asked, "What kind of eggs is this?"

No one could answer this question, and everyone shook their heads.

Mu Tao frowned and said, "It tastes bad?"

“The taste is a bit bland, without the eggy smell, and it’s not unpalatable.”

Sanning gave a pertinent evaluation and relaxed his brows, "If you like it, you can pick it up again. I know where I picked up this egg."

"Um."

Feimeng Luoya nodded, "Then go pick some up and bring them back when you have time."

"good."

The egg matter came to an end here, and then Sang Ning talked about today's task arrangements.

"You continue to build the house, and I will make the furniture."

"Can you do it alone?"

Clyde was worried, but Sanning smiled and said, "It will probably work, but don't worry, if it really doesn't work, I will ask you for help."

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt relieved.

After eating, drinking, and resting for a while, a few people got busy.

The wood was prepared early in the morning. When the huanghuali trees in the cave were moved, Mu Tao and the others moved them all over. Originally, they did not plan to move them back every night, but after trying it once, they found that the distance was too far.

It takes four or five hours to go back and forth from the cave to the place where the stone house is built. Going back and forth every day is a waste of time.

Therefore, after discussion, everyone decided to move directly.

Don’t be afraid if you don’t have a house. The weather isn’t cold now. Even if you use the ground as your bed and the sky as your quilt, it won’t be cold.

Just be wary of wild beasts at night.

Since I don't plan to come back to the cave again, I naturally take away everything I can help.

Therefore, the wood is all ready-made.

In addition to the yellow rosewood that they brought from the cave, Sang Ning and the others later cut down mahogany and other wood and brought it back.

After drying and cutting, the wood is ready for use.

So, while Mu Tao and the others were busy building the house, Sang Ning was writing and drawing on the slate with charcoal.

audience,"!!!"

[Here we go again, last time we made stools, chairs, and bamboo weaving, what are we going to do again this time?]

[I look at the dimensions she marked and the graphics she drew. Why does it feel like a bed?]

After the special effects barrage, Sang Ning hummed, "Yes, I'm going to start making the bed today. I slept on the floor so much that my back aches every day."

【Ning Ning, can you still make beds? 】

"Won't."

Sang Ning said confidently, "I've only seen others do it, but I haven't done it myself. I'll try it today."

"If you don't succeed once, then twice. Anyway, I don't have much time for other things."

【I know how to do it, do I want to teach you Ning Ning? 】

An audience member who knew how to make beds enthusiastically sent a barrage of special effects. Sang Ning got excited and said with bright eyes, "Can you do it without modern tools?"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was stuck.

Oops, he forgot, Sanning and the others had nothing, so there was no hope of making a comfortable and luxurious bed, but it didn't matter, he had a way.

Thinking of this, the audience member smiled and said——

[In fact, there is no need to go to such trouble. If you have a pile of wooden boards, just fix them with two rolling logs, and then lay the wooden boards on top to make a simple bed. It is definitely not as comfortable as a professional one, but it is enough.



Sang Ning laughed and said, "I can see that you don't know how to do it at all. I'd better figure it out on my own. If I don't succeed, I will follow your method."

OK.

So, in the following time, Sanning took charcoal and modified it on the slate, and a complete sketch of the bed frame appeared.

The more the audience looks at it, the more something is wrong. Compared with the previous sketch with a few lines, this sketch that is almost completed looks very complicated. Are you sure Ning Ning can do it?

[I find it very difficult and complicated. How do you assemble these pieces of boards and pillars without tools? 】

[It’s really complicated. I don’t think it’s a big problem when it comes to assembly. Didn’t Ning Ning and the others find a kind of super sticky fern leaves? At worst, they can squeeze out more juice to use as an adhesive to glue these wooden pillars together.



This was a method, and Sang Ning kept it in mind, preparing to use fern leaves as an adhesive after her experiment failed.

After the sketch was drawn, Sang Ning began to take action.

She found the posts and boards she wanted, and built a bed frame using a mortise and tenon structure without using a single nail.

Because the tool is not handy, the tenons, mortises, and grooves that were cut out previously were not done properly. Either the size is not suitable and cannot be inserted, or the height difference does not match, resulting in the alignment failure.

Therefore, I often work on the mortises, mortises, and mortises that need to be re-cut out.

Fortunately, the results were pretty good. Apart from wasting some time to make lunch and eat a meal at noon, Sanning, who spent the rest of the time struggling with the bed frame, finally put up the bed frame as the sun set.

She shook the bed frame vigorously. It was firm and had no intention of falling apart.

It's just ugly, because it has been reworked too many times, leaving a lot of marks.

In addition, there are no planes or polishing tools to polish the pillars and wooden boards, which are a bit rough and have a lot of sawdust burrs. If you want to sleep, put a mattress or mattress on it, otherwise the sawdust burrs will sting you.

But it doesn't matter, don't rush to do this now, let Mu Tao and the others polish it after everything is done, and add a bucket of paint to almost solve this problem.

If it really can't be solved, you can spread a thick layer of fern leaves or hay.

I remember my father said that when they were young, there was not much cotton and there were not enough quilts at home. It was okay in the summer, but difficult in the winter. In order to avoid being so cold, after the rice was harvested every autumn, the straw would be dried and bundled.

Come and make beds, feed the animals, light fires, etc.

If you spread out soft and thick straw and put a mattress on top, it won't be so cold and it will be soft. Except for the fact that the straw will make noise when you move it when you sleep, there is no other problem.

Therefore, Sanning planned to imitate his father and the others when they were young.

No one knew what Sang Ning was thinking. At this moment, everyone looked at the bed frame in shock. They couldn't understand why these pillars and wooden boards could be connected together with just a few openings.

Still looks very solid.
