Chapter 128 Spiritual Tea, Sauna Room Opened

Chapter 128 Spiritual Tea, Sauna Room Opened
"That's great."

Li Jiayi took the shovel from the door into the house, picked up several pieces of burning firewood from the fireplace with a pair of tongs, put them on the shovel and carried them out.

"Uncle Liao, this is for you! If it's not enough, come back for more." Li Jia handed over a shovel and said.

"That's enough. This much is enough to light the briquettes."

"Ok!"

After Liao Kai left with the shovel, Li Jiayi returned to the house and added some firewood to the fireplace, which soon started burning again.

At this time, Li Aimin also nailed the door curtain and returned to the house.

"It's still warm inside!"

"Dad, if I remember correctly, when I asked someone to do this, you didn't allow it!"

"Uh! Is there? Why don't I remember it?"

Li Jiayi curled his lips and ignored him.

You should know that when the house was being renovated, Li Jiayi asked someone to repair a fireplace, but Li Aimin was very opposed to it.

In his words, it would be ugly to install this thing in a nice house, and we don’t even know if it is practical or not.

"Enough of you two, all you do is bicker all day long." Ye Xin said helplessly.

"By the way, son, does that stove work? Is it as warm as this fireplace?" Li Aimin asked.

"Dad, don't even think about it. Although a stove can work, it's still far from a fireplace. It just keeps you warm at night."

"That's fine, it's better than nothing."

"Mom, Dad, brother, go wash your hands, dinner will be ready soon." The second sister ran into the house and said.

Although it is warm to burn a fire in the kitchen, it only warms the front and leaves the back cold.

The living room is more comfortable! It's warm and you don't need to wear thick cotton clothes.

At this time, it was still snowing outside. Although it was not particularly heavy, it was still snowing.

Soon, the eldest sister came into the main room with the meal. The meal was very simple, with only one dish.

It’s just a staple dish, chicken stewed in an iron pot.

Needless to say, the staple food is still steamed buns made of two-grain flour.

In Li Aimin's words, he wouldn't change his life even if he was offered the position of factory director.

I guess only he would dare to say this, but it also shows how satisfied he is with his current life.

After eating and drinking, the eldest sister and mother went to the kitchen to clean up, while Li Jiayi, father and second sister stayed in the living room.

My dad brewed a large enamel pot of wine and sat there drinking it.

Li Jiayi then remembered that the tea in the space was already cooked! It was time to take out some to honor his father.

But he couldn't take it out on his own initiative. After thinking about it, Li Jiayi went back to the house and got an enamel pot.

Some tea leaves from the space had already been placed inside. When boiling water was poured in, a scent of tea immediately wafted out.

"Hey, son, you made tea too?" Li Aimin asked puzzledly.

"Yes! My friend gave me some tea leaves and said they were good. So I took them out and tried them."

Li Aimin sniffed and said, "It is indeed good tea. Come, give me some so that I can taste it too."

Li Jiayi glanced at him and said, "Dad, don't you have tea?"

Li Aimin quickly went over and fetched a small enamel pot and said, "Pour me some to try."

"All right!"

Li Jiayi poured most of the tea in the enamel mug over, and then filled it up with boiling water.

This is the spiritual tea in the space, and it has not been contaminated by anything, including dust.

So there is no need to wash the tea, just brew and drink it directly.

Li Aimin took a sip and his eyes lit up immediately. He quickly said to Li Jiayi, "Son, do you have too much tea?"

"what?"

"How about giving some to dad?" Li Aimin ran over and grabbed Li Jiayi's arm and asked.

"Okay, I'll give you some later."

"Hey, thanks, son."

This tea is so good. One sip makes people feel refreshed and their mouths are full of fragrance. It is unlike the Gaosui he drinks, which, apart from the taste of tea leaves, is only slightly better than boiled water.

Li Jia drank a cup of tea, added boiling water, and then returned to the house.

When he came out again, he was holding an oil-paper bag in his hand. He put it on the table and said, "I don't have much either. Please drink sparingly."

Although he said that, when Li Jiayi took out the bag, it was at least half a pound.

Li Aimin quickly took it and opened it, then looked at Li Jiayi and said, "Son, is this what you said is not much?"

"Yes! Not much."

Li Aimin was speechless. This big bag must be at least half a pound! And this was only part of it.

"Fine!"

Despite this, he was reluctant to pour out the liquor in his enamel jar and continued drinking it.

If it were Li Jiayi, he would just pour it out and replace it with good tea leaves.

This can only mean that Li Jiayi has never had a hard life.

At this time, Li Jiayi stood up, took out two plates from the cabinet under the table, and returned to the house.

Of course, this was just a cover-up. When he came out again, one plate was filled with glutinous rice noodles and the other was filled with peanuts and sunflower seeds.

"Wow, glutinous rice noodles." The second sister, who was originally bored, became excited after seeing the glutinous rice noodles.

Li Aimin glanced at Li Jiayi and said, "Son, you are really good! You have good things but you didn't bring them out earlier." Li Jiayi curled his lips and said, "If you had brought them out earlier, my second sister probably wouldn't even eat."

"Uh!" Li Aimin glanced at his second daughter and felt helpless!

"Hey, glutinous rice noodles, who bought them?" Mom and elder sister came in from outside at this time, and mom asked.

"Who else could it be! Do you believe me if I say I bought it?" Li Aimin asked Ye Xin.

"Do not believe."

"That's it. Apart from your son, who else in our family can buy things casually, especially things like Jiangmi Noodles?"

You have to know that to buy glutinous rice noodles, you not only need food coupons, but mainly money. This thing is much more expensive than peach cakes!

Although their salaries are not low, they really can't bear to buy this thing.

Next, the family of five drank tea while eating glutinous rice noodles and peanuts and melon seeds.

If it were in the past, I would definitely go back to my room to sleep at this time, but the living room was too warm and I was reluctant to leave.

After drinking tea, Li Jiayi looked at his father and said, "Dad, do you want to sleep more comfortably?"

"Nonsense, of course I do!"

"Wait for those. I'll call you later!"

After saying that, Li Jiayi went outside and used firewood to light the stove in the sauna room.

Then he filled two large oil drums with water. Because the faucet was inside the house and was insulated, it did not freeze at this time.

For example, the faucet in their yard was frozen at this time, so if they wanted to get water, they could only use boiling water.

But that’s not necessary now, because when they were renovating their house, they had already connected the faucets into the house and the kitchen.

This faucet outside is basically never used. It is only used to wash hands in the summer.

Soon the two large oil barrels were filled with water. Li Jiayi went outside again and added some firewood and coal into the stove.

Then two large oil drums were burned outside. Yes, the water in the oil drums could also be heated.

These two large oil drums can hold a lot of water. After heating them up, they are enough for the family to use, and they may not even be used up.

After the fire was lit, Li Jiayi came to the sauna room, which was already steaming hot. Li Jiayi poured some water on the stones.

A wave of hot air hit me in the face and I quickly ran out. There was no way, it was too hot inside.

Arriving at the courtyard, Li Jiayi shouted to the house, "Dad, it's ok, come out quickly."

"What's okay?"

"You'll know if you follow me." After saying that, Li Jiayi entered the sauna room again.

I started taking off my clothes as soon as I came in. There was no other way because it was too hot inside. Although this was not a sauna room, there were two big oil drums boiling water here!
Just as I took off my cotton jacket, my dad came in.

"Hey, son, are you going to take a bath?" Li Aimin asked.

"That's right." Li Jiayi said as he put the cotton jacket into the closet.

He also had this cabinet specially made for storing clothes.

Soon Li Jiayi took off all his clothes except his underwear, opened a small door and entered the sauna room.

It was really hot inside and I started sweating as soon as I came in.

"Dad, are you okay?"

"coming."

Soon, Dad came in wearing the same shorts as him.

"Hiss! It's so hot." Li Aimin said with a breath of cool air.

"It's hot! It will be more comfortable later." After saying that, he lay down.

There are three wooden platforms inside where you can lie down or sit, and they look similar to old-fashioned wooden chairs.

Li Aimin also followed Li Jiayi's example and lay down in one place, and soon broke out in a sweat.

At this time, Li Jiayi sat up and poured some water on the stones on the stove.

With a "sizzling" sound, a stream of hot air rose, and the temperature in the sauna room increased a lot.

This was Li Aimin’s first time in a sauna. He had never even seen one before, let alone taken one.

A wave of heat came up and he ran outside in fear. When he got outside, he took a few deep breaths, which made Li Jiayi laugh.

"Dad, is it that serious? It's just a sauna. You'll feel better after a while."

Although he didn't quite trust his son, seeing that his son didn't come out, Li Aimin went in again.

"How is it? Comfortable, right?" Li Jiayi asked after steaming for a while.

"It is quite comfortable, but you didn't tell me in advance."

"Dad, let me tell you, you have to experience this sauna yourself to know its effects."

"Okay!" He looked at Li Jiayi and said, "Add some more water."

"Row."

Li Jiayi had used saunas many times in his previous life, but this was his first time in this life. Moreover, the sauna room he built was much better than the saunas in bathhouses in later generations.

After half an hour, I felt completely refreshed! I went to the outer room to wash, dry myself and change clothes.

Since neither of them had their underwear, they could only leave it alone for the time being. Li Jiayi did have some in his space, but there was no way to take it out.

Even after coming outside, the two of them didn't feel the slightest bit of cold. This was the effect of the sauna.

When the two returned to the house, Ye Xin glanced at them and said, "You two are amazing. You still take a shower in such a cold weather."

"Oh, that's not the case. You don't know how comfortable that sauna my son made is." Li Aimin said to Ye Xin.
