Chapter 157 New Yarn
Yuetingzi raised her face and stared at Mrs. Fan. She didn't dare to argue any more. She stayed for a long time and jumped up and rushed out of the room with her skirt.
Madam Fan's face was pale and she sat straight on the kang. Yuyan quietly came in, poured a cup of tea and handed it over, and whispered, "Girl?" Aunt Fan shook her body gently and didn't answer the cup. She turned her head to look at Yuyan and asked, "Has Ding Fu come back yet? How's it going? Why don't you even say a word?" Aunt Fan's voice went all the way up, and Yuyan subconsciously stepped back and asked for instructions: "I'll go outside to have a look?"
"No." Mrs. Fan waved her hand impatiently: "I just left yesterday, not so fast." Yuyan quietly replied with a sigh of relief, "What the girl said is that the girl told him to find a weaver and bring it back. Those who go out to work will not leave home until 15 years old."
"Well, clean up the food." Mrs. Fan suppressed her irritability and ordered. Yuyan hurried forward to clean up the dishes, picked up the food box and retreated. Mrs. Fan got up and stood in front of the window and looked out in a daze.
Shuilian sent Li Xiaoyao and Sister Zhang away, quit Shuiying and came out. She sat in the car holding a cup of tea and was stunned. Suddenly, she seemed to think of something. Looking at the big girl Fu Feng and ordered, "Go to Shuida/Grandma's place to sit down and go back." Fu Feng was stunned and hurriedly persuaded with a smile, "It's so late today. Even if the girl doesn't feel tired, Shui Da/Grandma also wants to rest." Shuilian lifted the curtain and looked at the already yellow sky outside and said absent-mindedly, "It's still early." Fufeng hurriedly agreed, turned his head and knocked on the board of the carriage and ordered to go down. The car slowly adjusted its direction and drove to the house where Shuitong lived.
Shuitong received it at the door of the courtyard and asked with a trace of surprise, "Didn't you say that you were going to entertain the fifth master today? Why did you come to me? Did you break up early?"
"Well, the fifth master has a lot of things to do and wants to talk to his sister." Shuilian followed Shuitong into the room with a few thoughts, turned her head and asked, "Where's Ming? Sleeping?"
"Well, he is used to going to bed early. Fortunately, he got up early. Besides, his father took him out to meet guests today, and he was also exhausted." Shuitong replied with a smile. Shuilian seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. The two sat on the kang. Shuilian held a cup of tea and looked at the maidservant in the room and said, "Let's talk quietly for a while." Shuitong was understanding, waved back the maids and looked at Shuilian. When she opened her mouth, Shuilian's lips were next to the edge of the fine porcelain cup, as if she didn't know where to start. After a long time, she put down the cup, lowered her eyes, and whispered with a slightly red face: "Shuiying said she wanted to see Sister Zhang's fiance, so we went to see it, Brother Li. Brother Li In the middle, the surname is not Li, but I didn't expect to be such a talent, more outstanding than the second brother.
Shuitong looked at Shuilian in surprise. Shuilian's slender fingers scratched around the mouth of the cup, biting her lips and didn't know how to say it. Shuitong flashed in surprise, frowned and asked in a low voice, "Which one is not surnamed Li?"
"It is said that he is the second line. His surname is Wei, and his name is Wei Shuisheng. He has good kung fu and writes better than his second brother." Shuilian's face turned redder and said low and vaguely. Shuitong sighed and said, "I know what you are thinking. In those years, I was the same. Don't do such a stupid thing as me. In those years, my mother only firmly felt that he was good, and I felt that the children of those families were not good here and there. Their concubines are in groups. In the game room, they only feel that if they find him, they can grow old together. They have no guess. Look, no matter how many concubines there are, there are rules and regulations, can there be one who dares to be so lawless and spoil his concubine? The doorkeeper has said this for so many years, and it can't be right. My sister missed it once. You can't make a mistake again. The fifth master is a good person, but after all, her brothers are not her, let alone a foreign brother. Shuitong's voice was gently painful. The blush on Shuilian's face faded to white and bit her lips tightly. After a long time, she slowly nodded her head and answered, "I'm just gossiping. Don't worry, I didn't think about anything, just gossip."
"Well, that's good. The fourth uncle and fourth aunt love you so much about your marriage. From last year to now, whenever there is something wrong, the fourth uncle and fourth aunt refuse to nod. Don't be capricious. You will know when you become a parent. There is no way to say that the parents's heart for their children. In order to be good, just I laughed when I died. I didn't know how ignorant I was until I gave birth to A Ming. My father almost turned white for me all night. Alas, don't learn from me. Shuitong reached out and patted Shuilian's hand, persuaded Shuilian, and confessed his past.
Shuilian nodded with her head down and said in a low voice, "I know. Don't worry, sister. It's getting late. I'll go back, and my sister will rest early." Shuitong got up and sent Shuilian out, watched her get into the car, and then slowly went back to the yard.
The next morning, Li Xiaoyao got up and asked for a car and rushed to the weaving workshop. Luo Daluo asked Zhang Gouzi to invite her to see it. It seemed that the silk woven should be good.
The car stopped at the door of the weaving workshop. Zhang Gouzi saw the car from afar and rushed out with Zhao Liushun. Li Xiaoyao jumped out of the car. Zhang Gouzi and Zhao Liushun led her into the yard while rushing to say, "Fifth Master came really early." As soon as Zhao Liushun said something, Zhang Gouzi grabbed the words: "The two masters Luo were busy in the middle of the night and knit a few more feet. The fifth master went to have a look. The silk is thin and soft, which is really beautiful..."
"Like a light cloud!" Zhao Liushun grabbed it and said, "It's better than the best silk!" Li Xiaoyao listened to you and me, and kept going all the way into the only row of intact rooms in the middle. When they arrived at the door of the room, Luo Da and Luo Er came out of the room with red eyes and bowed. Li Xiaoyao frowned and looked at the red silk in their eyes and scolded, "The two masters are too anxious. How many nights can they hold on doing this overnight? The two masters fell ill, isn't this work still delayed? Luo Dajiang hurriedly explained with a smile, "Just last night, I was anxious to see the new machine. Fifth Master, come in and have a look."
Li Xiaoyao followed them into the room. Zhang Gouzi and Zhao Liushun followed Li Xiaoyao into the room. The room was very spacious, with a fire wall, and doubled the window according to Li Xiaoyao's intention. Although several large windows were half open, the room was still very warm. Li Xiaoyao leaned against the window, although the window was There are two floors inside and outside, but near the window, it is still very cold when the wind blows. Li Xiaoyao looked at the window and sighed. There is nothing he can do. It is the best way to paste the window with thick cotton paper pasted by Lajin like this. At least it can pass through some light. The transparent glass window is simply It's shocking. Luo Da saw Li Xiaoyao look at the window and frowned. He was nervous to explain. Zhang Gouzi first opened his mouth and explained, "Fifth master, you can't open any more. It's either afraid of the cost of charcoal, or you can't open it more in summer. I'm afraid that the wind will mess up the silk." Luo Da blinked and looked at Zhang Gouzi. Yes, the fifth master was not that harsh. The idea of burning more charcoal to open the window was still the fifth master.
"I just felt that the wind was strong, but I didn't expect to blow the silk, Luo Da, and then hand over to the weavers. If you are busy sweat, you have to bypass the window. People are hot. If you blow such a cold wind, you are most likely to have a stroke, let alone cool. Standing under this wind, there is too much difference in cold and heat. You two should also be careful." Li Xiaoyao turned around and solemnly said, Luo Da and Luo Er were stunned, "Hey!" He agreed and thought for a moment to thank Li Xiaoyao. Li Xiaoyao had turned to the loom and sat down to hold the few feet of silk woven by Luo Da and Luo Er overnight. Looking carefully at the light, Luo Da and Luo Er knitted yarn, which was thin, dense, light and thin, and very clean. It was indeed a good hand!
Luo Da stepped forward and explained, "Master, the silk used has not been dyed. My second brother and I have tried this machine first. There are changes on this machine. Fifth Master, look here..." Luo Da pointed to the loom, and Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "I don't understand the loom. You continue It's agreed."
"Hey!" Luo laughed and answered, and then said, "If this silk is too paste, it can be better. If it is not pasted, Luo Er and I can weave it. If we let new people weave it in the future, we must have used the paste."
"Master, Uncle Luo said that we can only weave. This strand is ripe, and we don't know how to dye it." Zhang Gouzi snatched the words and explained that Li Xiaoyao frowned. Luo Erwen answered, "I'm not afraid. Just buy ready-made ones. Chen Da sees that silk thread is the best."
"Is the best silk thread only available to Wu Di?" Li Xiaoyao looked at Luo Da and Luo Er and asked. They nodded. Li Xiaoyao was silent for a moment and whispered, "After that, I will think about this matter. The silk produced in Beiping is not bad. I have to invite a few reeling and dyed and pasted masters. Okay, Luo Da, you go on." Luo Da agreed, pointed to the fine yarn in Li Xiaoyao's hand and continued, "I discussed with my second brother and the dog. This year, let's knit this simple silk, makeup and silk. Slow down first. Our new weavers are novices. We have to weave from this plain yarn first, and then wait for us to weave things before selling them. , just in time for summer, summer yarn is the best to sell. Let's sell it this season first, and then say something else. Luo Da's words were a little messy, but Li Xiaoyao heard it clearly. He put down the gauze in his hand, stood up and said with a smile, "You are thoughtful. It's my blessing to get the help of you and Luo Er and Chen Da. I have to thank Mr. Liang later. You're right. You're right. That's all. It's the same. Those new weavers should be strict. Silk can't be sloppy, but if a star is not good, we can't take it. When we make something for the first time, we must fight down. We'd rather not make money than make a good reputation. Don't waste things, but don't worry about things. Luo Da and others laughed, and Li Xiaoyao walked around the yard and went back.
