93. Ploughing in spring
The matter of the house is completely settled, and Chen Qing has a lot of worries.
When Liang Zijun learned about this, he only secretly called Chen Qing lucky. Fortunately, although the price of the half of the house was negotiated, due to Chen Qing's instructions, Liang Zijun did not pay the money on the spot, and threw 2 taels of silver to block the old man's mouth afterwards, and the matter was over.
After buying a house, this new home needs to buy a lot of things, but fortunately, you don't need to buy another large items, just add some bedding, dishes and chopsticks.
On the day of the house, Bolin was not there, only Ren Yazi guarded the door, and when he saw Chen Qing and Liang Zijun entering the door together, he only smiled and handed the key to Chen Qing, "The seller left early yesterday morning, and asked me to wait for you to hand over the house here."
"I'm bothering you to watch the door, didn't he say where he went?" Chen Qingyuan wanted to thank Bolin well, but he didn't expect him to be in such a hurry that he didn't even see the last one.
"I didn't say it, I inquired, I guess I don't expect to come back in a year and a half" After Ren Yazi finished speaking, he said goodbye to the two, and at the end he said to Liang Zijun playfully, "I knew that this was the third master's daughter-in-law, so let's collect a lot of money, right?"
"Get out~ Just you guys who pick up skins, I just deliberately avoided you so I didn't show up" Liang Zijun gave him a kick with a smile, and casually threw a tael of silver as a reward.
"Well, thank you for the third master" Ren Yazi smiled and took the silver, and said two more auspicious words, and then left.
Chen Qing sniffled in distress, dissatisfied with Liang Zijun's generous reward.
"It's just a little money, it's hard to deal with little ghosts, and anything that can be solved with silver is not a problem, learn to do it" Liang Zijun quickly diverted the topic and pretended to check the beams and walls of the house.
Chen Qing didn't bother to talk to him, and checked the belongings at home, and found that most of the household belongings had been left behind, and there were even some books and letters on the table. After opening it and looking at it, I couldn't help but smile, Bolin is worthy of deep friendship, but fortunately, the misunderstanding is solved, otherwise I will miss such a friend.
"It's not a big problem, just brush the oil to prevent insects before the end of the year," Liang Zijun said when he entered the house. This house is better than expected, and the cracks in the walls are not strict, I didn't expect Chen Qing to be stupid, and he was so lucky that pies fell from the sky.
"I'll just say that Bolin won't lie to me, right? You still don't believe it, I knew that I brought you here yesterday, so I can get to know you," Chen Qing said with regret.
Liang Zijun reached out and grabbed the letter, shook it open, and faintly raised his eyebrows. This handwriting is exactly the same as the handwriting next to the portrait, I am afraid that my daughter-in-law has something to hide and did not explain it truthfully.
Seeing that Chen Qing's face was down-to-earth and generous, Liang Zijun was not easy to make trouble in person, and he only asked if he met this person at the Lantern Festival. Liang Zijun thought for a while, touched his chin and looked solemn.
"Next time, you are not allowed to meet with him in private" Chen Qing heard him say this, and immediately retorted, "Why?"
"Because I'm also very interested in him, I want to pay a good visit, and thank him for taking care of Liang's daughter-in-law" Liang Zijun gritted his teeth meaninglessly, threw away the letter and left angrily.
Chen Qing was too lazy to compete with him, this person's temper has always been uncertain, and he may not be able to touch his tendons again.
Taking advantage of the fact that there is no spring ploughing, Chen Qing has to go to the embroidery room every morning to teach acupuncture, and in the afternoon he rushes to complete the work in the store.
Liang Zijun felt sorry for him running around every day, so he specially hired a carriage to pick him up, and finally reduced his travel time. Since Chen Qing put on a streamer and went out, the cloth shop guy knew that Chen Gong was a little brother, and he made a few more jokes in the usual face, but after that, he couldn't help it. Although Chen Qing felt depressed, he had no choice but to keep a safe distance from everyone, so as not to cause rumors.
The Liang family is happy to see this, since the lantern festival, everyone also thinks that it is better to hold on to Chen Qing's temperament, after all, she is a daughter-in-law, and it is also detrimental to Zijun's reputation to be recognized as a master when she goes out every day.
In a blink of an eye, half a month has passed, and the five high-grade embroiderers have been able to take over the work of the new embroidery, Chen Qing only needs to be responsible for the most important part, and the rest is assigned, which feels really light.
Of the 6 pieces of animal embroidery of new clothes, Chen Qing completed 5 pieces by himself, Abi embroidered one, and the rest of the work was done with the help of 5 embroiderers. Liang Ji handed over the ready-to-wear in advance, and the customer was happy to give the silver.
After the completion of the high-grade embroidery, Chen Qing did not plan to embroider by himself, but let the five embroiderers ponder the embroidery by themselves.
As soon as Qingming passed, Chen Qing rolled up his arms and sleeves and began to hoe and hoe the ground, Li San looked at the hard work and brought in the ploughing cattle to help plough the ground. Anyway, every year the vegetable field also needs oxen to plow the land, Chen Qing also gladly accepted, it is good to save a little effort, no one will be stupid enough to ask for hardship, and they have to plough it by manpower.
The three acres of dry land were quickly ploughed, and Chen Qing sprinkled fertilizer before planting with Li Sanfu.
The columbus is a very old agricultural tool and a very practical agricultural tool. For example, millet, millet, millet, hemp, sorghum, wheat and so on can be used.
Chen Qing is the first time to use this tool to plant, after all, the production is backward in this era, and there are many people who have never used a cocoon in their lives for farming. Chenjiagou only the village chief's family has this kind of car, but also the family and close relatives to use, pure carpentry to build the car even the rich are very cherished, so this kind of thing can rarely be spread to outsiders.
Li San was not using it for the first time, and he was worried that Chen Qing's cocoon would not shake the seeds evenly, so he asked Chen Qing to lead the mule that pulled the cocoon cart. Chen Qing pulled for a long time, and he felt a little unbearable, so he didn't go to pull the crush, just the mule aisle.
Liangjia Village is quite wealthy, there is more than one car, it is the spring ploughing season, Chen Qing got up early the next morning, went out in a daze and flashed in the foggy mountain village, but heard the sound of squeaking in the field, that is, the sound of crushing.
In the hazy morning mist, looking far away, there are rare figures flickering in the fields, which are the seeds that the villagers pull and crush under the compacted yesterday.
After washing, he made breakfast first, and only woke up Liang Zijun after feeding the livestock, and after the two had eaten, Chen Qingcai went to work in the field with farm tools. Liang Zijun pouted and muttered but didn't forcibly stop it, only scolded secretly, "Fool, ask for your own hardship"
Wei Liang finished sowing seeds in the vegetable field and joined in. Li San supported the car, Wei Liang was on the mule, and Chen Qing came to pull and crush. The three of them worked a lot faster, at least they didn't have to finish sowing seeds and had to go back to pull and grind.
The columbic cart was roaring, crushing and creaking behind him, and the livestock that pulled the cocoon also walked smoothly, but after half a day, the three of them were also sweating, their clothes were **, and their steps became difficult.
Li San beckoned them to rest, and Chen Qing stopped, lying on the ground on all fours, looking up at the fluttering white clouds, as if they had been scattered, and they were reluctant to turn over for a long time.
After half a year, I was doing this farm work, although I was tired but I also felt hearty, Li San smiled and joked to him, "Why don't you try to help the car, just shake it from side to side and scatter the seeds evenly."
"It's done!" Chen Qing forgot the tiredness on a whim. Sowing seeds by the cart is already the highest level of farmers, and Chen Qing was full of emotion when he sowed seeds with the cart for the first time. Nowadays, it is extremely difficult for farmers to sow seeds even if they have a cocoon.
With the help of Li San and Wei Liang, Chen Qing was busy with spring plowing for the first time so lightly, and the cocoon carts and livestock were sent back to the farmers, and Chen Qing was idle again.
When the weather warms up, there are several hens in the coop that are in a state of holding the nest. Chen Qing calculated a little, but it was not time to become a chicken, so he went to the county to buy a rooster about 3 years old to be a breeder, and picked out two hens with strong nest hugging and docile temperament to be nest chickens.
Put a few eggs first to let the nest chicken try to hatch for 3 days, if the chicken squatting nest is good, it means that the nest has been deep, so that it can be officially hatched.
It took several days to save eggs before the fertile eggs were enough, and both coops were made of baskets, covered with hay and cotton wool, and a layer of pine feathers to facilitate the hens to turn the eggs.
Move the chicken nest to the firewood room, put 18 eggs in each nest, and after the chicken has adapted to the new environment, gently lie down, shake the body, loosen the wings and hold all the eggs under the body. Hens generally have an instinct to turn eggs, so that the eggs can be heated evenly. If there are too many eggs, the hen will be tired of turning the eggs.
Take care of the livestock every day, cook and embroider, don't be too comfortable~~ Chen Qing smiled and collected the needle and thread, got up and went to the town.
Since the centralized management of embroidery and the quality of embroidery products have been greatly improved, the confidence of the shopkeeper of Wanda has been more sufficient, urging Liang Zijun to implement the next plan.
Embroidery concentrated embroidery, one is to ensure that high-end embroidery does not leak, one is to effectively shorten the embroidery period. Liang Zijun and the shopkeeper discussed for an hour before assigning the specific work, weaving the inferior embroidery* into it, and letting the superior embroidery girl take out her hand and only be responsible for embroidery.
Chen Qing took on a new job - teaching the craft of medium embroiderers. This time, Chen Qing will not teach comprehensively, but only teach one to two basic acupuncture methods for each person, and then explain the steps of the next acupuncture in detail.
These 10 medium-sized embroidery girls were all selected by the shopkeeper Wan, and they were forced to sign the death deed before handing them over to Chen Qing for teaching. Even so, the shopkeeper Wan still assured that he must control the scale and not let the medium embroidery girl have the opportunity to participate in the core embroidery.
After this batch of embroidery girls is completed, Liang Ji batch production can be basically guaranteed, 5 high-grade embroiderers, 10 medium embroiderers, plus a number of inferior embroiderers, as long as the progress keeps up, it is not a problem to embroider five ready-to-wear clothes in two days.
As soon as Chen Qing turned his hand down, Liang Zijun began to make new clothes for Chen Qing again. Chen Qing knew his intention to ask for new clothes, and since it was a matter of the store, he no longer shirked it, and began to embroider new styles.
Liang Zijun is now particularly interested in the matching of gorgeous clothes, and Chen Qing is expected to embroider a robe with a more sassy bag (light yellow-green) + peach petals.
With such a bright fabric, even Liang Zijun was ashamed to wear it out and show his eyes, but Chen Qing glared at him with a strange face, "Don't you dare?"
Liang Zijun was blocked and speechless, but this glance is the color of the girl, how can he have the face to run around the street?
Touching the fine fluttering petals, Liang Zijun gritted his teeth and wore it! The master still didn't believe it, with his face as thick as the city wall, he could still be crushed by the ridicule of the world.
As soon as Liang Zijun went out, Chen Qing sneaked out. As a result, he lost the person, and there was no way, two legs can't run on four legs.
When Chen Qing came home after walking around the town, he saw a sloppy proprietor covered in grass clippings and messy hair.
"Poof~haha...... You also have today...... You deserve it!" Chen Qing laughed uncontrollably, which could be regarded as letting him get back on his way.
"Where did you go! I'm impatient to wait," Liang Zijun shouted with a blushing face.
Chen Qing walked around him, and then secretly regretted carrying the hem of his clothes and said, "I embroidered until my hands were sore, and it was scratched in one day!"
"Ah, then hurry up and embroider another one for the master, if it's too late, it's also possible to make up for it" Liang Zijun heard that his clothes were torn, and he hurriedly turned his head around to check.
"When is Liang Sanye willing to wear the mended clothes?" Chen Qing opened his mouth wide in surprise, it was a pity not to see him embarrassed, who would have thought that there would be a more shocking follow-up.
Rushing to the crowd of people, Liang Sanye's robe of the same color as spring has been warmly sought after by the eldest girl and the little daughter-in-law.
Even Liao Fanzhi chased after him to peel off this robe and try it on, Li Shoucai was secretly entangled, touching his stomach and thinking about whether it was really time to lose weight?
"Master's clothes are really out of the limelight, hehe...... In the spring, how can you say that you can sell thirty or forty pieces, and there are still people from other counties who are in a hurry to place orders, you first hurry up and wash this dress and then send it to the store, and then send it to the store, so bad embroidery lady hurry up and embroider" Liang Zijun announced proudly, and said very stinky fart, "What's the matter?"
Chen Qing can no longer be described as shocked, the disaster is like this, it was caused by too much limelight. was hit hard in my heart, and I didn't even have the mood to laugh, so I went into the house with a wooden face and went into the quilt to beat the bed.
It took Liang Zijun a long time to react to what Chen Qing's move was, changed his smugness, splashed and rolled to heal his daughter-in-law's injured heart, and urged people to hurry up and work.
"You really did anything for the sake of silver~" Chen Qing couldn't stand it and raised his hand in surrender, took the dirty clothes and sarcastically mocked him.
"Each other, daughter-in-law of wealth fans" Liang Zijun praised with a cheeky face.
