"Don't laugh! I'm telling the truth. Qi Ermei looked at her and nodded with a smile, thought about it and said, "Actually, I also know what you said, and there are also men in the village who beat their wives." But those are despicable lazy people. There are many good men, and your teacher Lin is very good. ”

"Hehe......" Hua Banzhi smiled when he heard this, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, the cradle is ready, let the big girls carry them home when they go back." He stood up and said, "It's almost time, I'm going to school." He lowered his eyes and looked at Second Sister Qi and said, "Let the light accompany you, I'll go." Looking at Second Sister Qi who stood up, she said, "Sister Qi, what are you doing?"

"I sat down with the kids. Qi Ermei pointed to the corridor, where the children were sitting.

"I'll get the chair. Hua Banzhi looked at her and said, picking up the bamboo chair and saying.

Hua Banzhi sent Qi Ermei to the corridor, under the faucet, washed her hands, put a cloth bag on her back and went to class.

ap; ap;

Hua Banzhi waited a few more days to get the new sorghum stalks, and sat under the corridor on Sunday carrying a bamboo chair, intending to cover the curtains.

Making a curtain is actually very simple, the tools you need are an awl, a fine hemp rope, and a sickle. There is no sickle, and the flower half branch is replaced with a kitchen knife.

"I'm here to join in the fun. Second Sister Qi was supported by Sanya and walked over.

"Aunt Qi sits. Zhou Guangming handed her the high-back chair.

"That's good. Second Sister Qi sat down, "The eldest girl will give me the things." ”

The eldest girl moved the small bamboo table to Qi Ermei's side and placed the sorghum stalk on it.

"Sister Qi, can you?" said Hua Banzhi as she looked at her worriedly.

"It's just a curtain, don't make a fuss. Second Sister Qi looked at her and smiled lightly, "I don't do this less at home." Then he said with some nostalgia, "When I was at home, the corn stalks were kept at home after the autumn harvest to cook and burn the kang for warmth, and the sorghum stalks can be of great use, the top thin part can be used to cover the curtain, and the lower part can be made into a curtain, and when building a house, it is spread on the purlin, and the house is thin." ”

Hua Banzhi looked at the sorghum stalks of a somewhat uniform size and said with a smile, "It seems that the stall owner who gave us sorghum stalks knows very well! ”

The two of them were talking and doing their hands, they were both veterans, and they could do it with their eyes closed.

Cover curtains, thin parts of sorghum straw, cross and thread woven into one of the common cooking utensils in the farmhouse kitchen.

The sorghum straw is selected with fine and thick thickness, moistened with water, and the straw is placed on the top of the pot to facilitate the threading of the needle, and the front and back sides of the needle and thread are alternately interspersed to connect the upper and lower layers of criss-crossed sorghum straw into a whole.

The cover curtain can not be made into a single layer, it must be double-layered, because the top of the single layer is put on the top of the thing and the end is straight and crooked, and the balance can not be maintained.

After more than 60 sorghum stalks are raised in the middle, they have to be channeled up and down with hemp rope again, and the needle code can not be too big, because the hemp rope will leak out, which is significantly ugly.

In this way, after the two cover curtains are made respectively, one is stacked horizontally and one vertically, and then fixed up and down with fine hemp rope, in order to make the cover curtain stronger, not scooped and not warped, find some fixed points.

After the prototype of the curtain is ready, a small nail is attached to the middle part of the sorghum stalk in the middle of the curtain, a thin rope is pulled, one side is fixed on the nail, and the other side of the rope is tied with a pencil, and a circle is drawn with the nail as the center, so that the shape of the round curtain comes out.

Finally, use a sickle to sharpen the pencil mark in the circle. The upper and lower curtains should be chamfered, and then the contact between the two sides of the curtain should be slightly sharpened with a sickle to prevent the sorghum stalks from being sharpened.

After the preparation is completed, according to the required diameter size, measure the radius with a straw and insert it in the center of the cover curtain with a needle, and the other end is attached to the kitchen knife and cut into a circle with the radius of the straw.

In about half an hour, a curtain will be ready and ready to use.

"Huahua is a master when she looks at the posture!" Qi Ermei looked at the curtain she made and said in surprise, "Look at the edges, it is particularly round, and there are no traces of the needles of the fine hemp rope on it, especially the place where the kitchen knife is sharpened is round and does not prick the hand." ”

"Practice makes perfect. Hua Banzhi smiled and said, "Sister Qi's craftsmanship is not bad. ”

"With him, you can't do what you want, and you're a little slow. Second Sister Qi said embarrassedly.

"What are you doing so fast?" said Hua Banzhi as she looked at her and smiled, "When you do it, you have nothing to do." This chat, without holding something in your hand, doesn't feel right. ”

"Yes, yes!" Second Sister Qi smiled when she heard this, chatting with her was very comfortable, and these words were like smearing honey in her mouth.

"Mother, give it to me. Zhou Guangming took it and looked at it before and after, "My mother is really beautiful, and if you think about it, it's like a vivid landscape painting." ”

"Yes!" said with a smile, "Maybe the purple pattern of the sorghum stalk itself is beautiful." "Plus she did it on purpose, and of course it's good-looking.

"Sister Qi, school is about to start, have the children's schools been found?" Hua Banzhi took the sorghum stalk and started again.

"Her father should be able to say okay!" Qi Ermei thought for a while and said, "I'll contact the school when I go back, and the child will go when the time comes." ”

"You're so big-hearted. Hua Banzhi said with a smile when she heard this, in her opinion, the big thing is in the eyes of others, and it is a trivial matter.

"It's not that I have a big heart, you let me, I can't do this! Qi Ermei said very frankly, "Now I learn Cantonese from Guangming, and I only have no problem with eating." ”

Hua Banzhi pursed his lips and snickered, which is really the attribute of a fully exposed foodie.

"Go to our school, the children in our family home are all there. It's also close to here, more than ten minutes to walk, and you don't have to cross the road. Zhou Guangming immediately said.

"Needless to say, the school that her father is looking for must be there. Second Sister Qi smiled and said, she knew her man too well.

"Bright, is the school good? The eldest girl looked at him and asked curiously.

Zhou Guangming put the curtain in his hand on the railing in the corridor, sat on the railing and looked at them and said, "The school is good, much better than our primary school in the capital." The house is just like the house here, very beautiful. ”

"What about the teacher? Will the teacher also speak something that we don't understand, and then we won't be able to keep up with the class. Erya said worriedly.
