There is no need to go to great lengths to make it extra luxurious.

In Shi Xiaolei's point of view, the hot spring should be built in a style that fits with nature. If it is made magnificent, it will lose the taste of 'heaven-sent and earth'.

Therefore, Stark's proposal to "build a luxurious bath in accordance with the ancient Roman style" was ignored by him without hesitation.

"Eh? Let me come?" Because of Shi Xiaolei's words, Yixian was caught off guard.

"That's right." Shi Xiaolei smiled and nodded: "I originally wanted to make it a Japanese style. After all, when it comes to hot springs, everyone will unconsciously think of an island country full of hot springs. But then I thought again, our country is China. There are also famous hot springs in the history of China, why do you have to use the design of your ancestors and go to learn from other people's island countries?"

"..." With a thoughtful look in his eyes, after a while, Yi Xian responded, "Commander, are you talking about... Huaqing Pond?"

"Yeah." Nodding vigorously, Shi Xiaolei gave a thumbs up, his eyes filled with a 'you know me' smile: "That's it."

"..., Commander, I..."

Seeing Yixian's hesitation, Shi Xiaolei quickly explained: "It doesn't mean that it has to be like Huaqing Pond. After all, it is an imperial garden, and even if we are willing to spend money, there is no such technique. I mean, learn from it. Classic Chinese style design, just bring out a little flavor."

"Is that so..." Yixian breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Shi Xiaolei hurriedly struck while the iron was hot: "You know, I'm a rough guy, so I can't do such meticulous work. And in our family, except for the two of us, they don't know what Huaguofeng is. So, think about it. Go, I think it's a more appropriate choice to leave this matter to you."

"But, Commander, I really don't understand."

"It doesn't matter." Shi Xiaolei waved his hand: "You don't have to worry about the distribution of pipes, moisture-proof and moisture-proof. When it comes to functional parts, I will contact someone to design them. All you have to do is to design the shape and grab it. overall style."

After saying these few words, Shi Xiaolei looked at Yixian, and there was a strong expectation in his eyes again.

I couldn't bear and didn't want to live up to this expectation and trust. After thinking about it carefully, I felt that with my aesthetic ability and understanding of the charm of China, I should be able to complete this task. After ten seconds, Yi Xian finally nodded. , a bit of firmness appeared on his little face: "Okay, I'll try."

"That's right~." Seeing Yixian agreeing, Shi Xiaolei grinned happily, "I knew that you would not disappoint me."

As a ship girl, obeying the commander's orders is only the most basic.

With the increase of intimacy, they will consider the commander more and more attentively, and after the commander gives the ring and become a wedding ship, they will be like wives, on the basis of fulfilling the instructions with heart, they will give full play to themselves The subjective initiative of the commander, including the details that the commander himself has not considered, does everything meticulously.

Yixian is no exception.

After receiving Shi Xiaolei's request, she immediately devoted her energy to studying.

Although Shi Xiaolei only asked for 'help to keep things in check', but in Yixian's heart, the requirements would not be so low.

Therefore, in order to design the drawings that best suit Shi Xiaolei's preferences, and do it as well as possible, Yixian feels that she must take some time and energy to learn about architectural design, especially exterior design. .

Look in the eyes, comfort in the heart.

Shi Xiaolei felt very gratified and moved by Yixian who was studying hard, but at the same time, he couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

'What can I do myself? ' Shi Xiaolei pondered unconsciously.

Tell Yixian, you don't have to work so hard, I can't bear it? It seems inappropriate, because doing so will make all her previous efforts in vain and become meaningless. Moreover, if one is not done well, it may make Yixian misunderstand, thinking that he does not trust her ability.

If she can't change her mind halfway and stop her from continuing, there is only one way left - find a teacher, give her some pointers, and reduce the difficulty of her study.

Thinking like this, Shi Xiaolei had an idea in his heart.

A week later, when the business closed on the weekend, Shi Xiaolei took Yixian and went out.

The destination is on the island of Manhattan, specifically, Hell's Kitchen. It's not too far from home, about half an hour's drive.

Departing at nine o'clock in the morning, I encountered a wave of traffic jams on the road, and when I arrived at the place, it was only a little after ten in the morning.

"We're here." After stopping the car, Shi Xiaolei pulled the handbrake to turn off the engine, and greeted Yixian who was sitting in the passenger seat: "Get out of the car, be careful, there is snow on the ground, don't slip."

"Yeah." Nodding lightly, Yi Xian unfastened her seat belt and pushed open the car door.

The weather is getting cooler and the first snow of the year fell yesterday.

On the manor's side, the snow scene is quite beautiful, but in the city, with the passing of cars and people, the snow has turned into mud.

Although it was not the first time that he took the initiative to come to the door, this was the Chinese Consulate General in New York after all. It was a very formal and serious occasion. Therefore, out of courtesy, Shi Xiaolei changed into a more formal outfit.

Not only out of concern, but also because of the need to maintain decency, that's why Shi Xiaolei specially reminded Yixian.

"Brother Shi, welcome and welcome." After receiving a call earlier, Peng Mingwei came to the gatehouse early and waited when he knew that Shi Xiaolei was coming. At this moment, seeing him get out of the car, Peng Mingwei took the initiative to greet him.

"Brother Peng~lightnovelpub.net~ raised his hand to say hello, Shi Xiaolei opened the back seat door with a smile, and took out a cardboard box.

When you come here, you have to bring some souvenirs, not to mention that I came here today to ask for something.

"Come here, what else do you bring?" Stepping up, seeing the cardboard box in Shi Xiaolei's hand, Peng Mingwei smiled and said politely, "This is the girl you mentioned on the phone, right? Hello, I'm Peng Mingwei, and I'm the deputy commander-in-chief. Since I'm Brother Shi's friend, just like him, little girl, you can just call me Brother Peng directly."

"Consul Peng." Yixian greeted very politely.

The weather is too cold to wear a cheongsam. Today's Yixian has put on a more common winter clothes.

However, the ladylike feeling that she exudes from the bottom of her heart was not discounted because of the change of clothes.

"Sure enough, people are divided into groups." From the greetings, he already felt the gentleness and elegance of Yixian, and the rich Chinese charm of her body. Peng Mingwei couldn't help but his eyes lit up and praised sincerely: "Brother Shi's Friends, everyone is so amazing."
