Sometimes people need to go through adversity, and in order to survive in the face of adversity, the brain will be much more flexible and easy to use than usual.

Although I am not yet exhausted, under the pressure of the Li family and Mama Pang to save rations and devote myself to me, I have also begun to force myself to introspect and seek a way out from the passivity and hesitation since entering the mansion.

I called Mama Pang, Xiao Shunzi and Yun Hui into the house, took the list and division of labor that had taken a long time to draw up, and said to them: "We can't sit still, we must first solve the problem of food, clothing and livelihood, these are the ones I listed, you can see if there is anything that needs to be added." ”

The general content of the list says two things. One is about the silver two financing, in the future, Mama Pang and Yun Hui will be responsible for making embroidery, I will be responsible for providing patterns and ideas, Xiao Shunzi will be responsible for finding sales outlets, and the silver earned will be divided equally according to the head, and it will not be disadvantaged, so that it can solve the daily use, and the three of them do not have to worry about deducting the monthly salary. Second, on the issue of food and clothing, the current rations are still sufficient, and it is good to save relatively well, and there is no need to eat wild vegetables every meal to survive. No matter what method is used, let Xiaoshunzi be sure to get fifty or sixty catties of potatoes and other crops with short growth cycles such as sweet potatoes, rapeseeds, soybeans, eggplants, pumpkins and other crops as soon as possible...... Nothing and so on, a detailed list of papers, these are to leave a way out for the future.

Xiao Shunzi heard that he was asked to show this, and a knowing smile appeared on his face, and he responded without saying anything. Mama Pang and Yun Hui repeatedly excused themselves about the dividends of embroidery. I insisted on my own idea, and said that I was taking advantage of them by just drawing patterns and sharing as much as them. When they saw that I insisted on doing so, they no longer refused, and thanked En and got busy according to the division of labor on the list.

When Yun Hui was left alone, I stuffed a note with the words "Seeking a simple and fast way to grow potatoes" into her hand, and whispered: "There is something that needs the help of the Ninth Master right now, you can ask He Tu to give this note to the Ninth Master." ”

Yunhui was illiterate, but when he saw that I finally opened my mouth to ask Yinyu for help, he thought that I was relieved, and he responded happily, without delay, and turned around and walked out of the house.

Potatoes were introduced to China from the West in the 17th century, and it is said that they became fully widespread during the Qianlong period, and are now only cultivated in alpine regions such as Hebei. Yinyu knows a lot of foreigners, and it is much easier to ask him to help him find mature planting techniques than to slowly explore. just sighed in my heart, I owe him a favor again.

Xiao Shunzi's work efficiency is quite high, so that the things he bought are all completed in just three days. It just so happened that Yinyu's reply was also delivered on the same day.

The land in the yard is the day of entering the house to let Xiao Shunzi find someone to open up the original flower garden, when I first entered the house, I saw this flower garden and felt that it was too wasteful to plant ordinary flowers and plants, and I wanted to find some herb tea or Chinese herbs that can be enjoyed and used for my own use, but I have not calmed down since I entered the house, and the land is idle, I didn't expect it to come in handy now, it can be used to grow melons, fruits and vegetables, and it also saves a lot of effort.

I asked Junzi to simply fence off the land with a low fence so that he wouldn't accidentally step on it. He also asked him and Yun Hui to tie up a melon and fruit stand together, where pumpkins, loofahs and eggplants were planted, and moved the stone table under the melon and fruit stand, which could be used to cool off in summer.

Common vegetables and fruits, Yun Hui has helped the family farm and look at the land since she was a child, and I don't have to worry too much. Only potatoes are a little troublesome, her real ancestral home is in the Huguang area, where potato cultivation has not yet been popularized, so the matter of planting potatoes can only be slowly pondered by me on the method sent by Yinyu.

The busy courtyard has become vibrant, although it is still necessary to face the ridicule and white eyes outside the courtyard, although the days are still poor, but looking at the money brought back by Xiao Shunzi selling embroidery and the crops that began to take root in the flower beds of the yard, everyone has a sincere smile on their faces, even Mama Pang, who has always been respectful and polite, inadvertently smiled and said, "Decades in the palace and outside the palace, it is not as comfortable and down-to-earth as these days."

Yunhui is a smart girl, I have seen the potato planting method I have done a few times and I have also figured out the doorway, and then she is doing a lot of planting alone, and I am also happy to be at ease. When I had nothing to do, I used charcoal from the small kitchen to draw patterns for embroidery and patterns on paper with some of the women's favorite small objects, so that I could give them to Mama Pang and they to make.

In fact, Yinyu not only sent in the potato planting method, but also brought in a few pieces of fine ink and a delicate bag. But since the backyard had a small kitchen to burn the remaining charcoal, I felt that the use of ink was a bit wasteful, not as convenient as charcoal, and I was busy with important things before, and I didn't have the heart to see what was in the bag he sent, but I thought it was gold and silver and something like that, and I was going to find an opportunity to return it to him, so I didn't open it, and put it in the drawer with those ink ingots, but I forgot about it.

These days are free, Fang remembered the matter of the bag again, took it out and opened it to see, it turned out to be a delicately made nine rings, with a note written on the inside "a solution to the chain to relieve sorrow" seven big characters, and there is a line of small words below "If you untie it, please return it". There was no payment on the note, but I knew it was Yinyu's notes.

Playing with this exquisitely crafted nine-link link, I don't know what Yinyu's intention is to let people send this thing to me, and he said in his heart: "He means that if I can't untie it, I don't have to return it?"

Thinking of this, he must have known my recent predicament, and was afraid that I would feel depressed, so he thought about helping me relieve my boredom. It's a pity that he doesn't know that these nine links are really not a difficult thing for me to understand.

When I was in college, there was a craze for playing nine rings in the school, and at that time, almost everyone had one, even during class, there would be people who buried their heads in fiddling with this extremely patient gadget. There are even people who have set up a club for this purpose, in addition to getting together to play all kinds of nine links, they have also written various ways to crack the nine links and posted them on the Internet.

I wasn't keen on it, but my friends were playing around me at the time, so I learned a lot of tricks. I didn't expect him to get such a thing, and I don't know what his intentions were, but since he was playing tricks, I also wanted to see what kind of medicine he was selling in this gourd.

Nine Rings is a very old folk toy in China. Nine rings are made of wire and attached to a horizontal plate or various frames, with a handle running through them. When playing, follow a certain procedure and repeat the operation, so that the nine rings can be untied separately or combined into one.

I vaguely remember that it takes a total of 341 steps to unlock the nine rings, and as long as the next ring is counted, it is counted as one step. The person who solves the problem first keeps counting 1,2,1,2,1,2,2,1...... When counting 1, go down the first ring, and when counting 2, look at the number of rings on the box from the first ring, and then go down to the next ring. For example, if the first one is on the frame, then only the second ring needs to be lowered, the first to the fifth are under the frame, and the sixth is on the box and the seventh ring is lowered. All the time, I insisted on counting 341 numbers and solved it.

But I haven't played it for a long time, but it still takes a lot of thought to know the principle. At the beginning, it was often messed up, and it had to be reverted back to the original state and started again.

Although Yinyu didn't mean to let me return it, in the face of repeated failures, he was unwilling to give up, and he didn't want him to look down on it, so he competed with this object.

The hard work pays off, when I unravel this thing, it is already the time of the rooster's crow, I think it is a night without sleep, but I often don't feel tired when I am too involved in doing one thing, and the excitement of untying the nine rings is not a little sleepy.

While he was not sleepy, he walked to the bookcase, unfolded his note, thought about it, took out the ink he sent to grind it, and put it under the pen:

"Chu Jiang is late. Scattered for thousands of miles, stunned. Self-care shadow, want to go down to the cold pond, the sand is clean and the grass is dry, and the level is far away. I can't write a book, I only send it and love a little. The material is wrong, and the remnants of the felt embrace the snow, so the hearts of the people. Who pities the travelers and sorrows? The night is quiet, and the brocade is resentful. Partner, still staying in Luhua, also read before spring, and should turn around. The twilight rain calls each other, and they are afraid of the ground. See you again in Yuguan. He was not ashamed, Shuangyan returned, and the curtain was half rolled. ”

This is the Song Dynasty lyricist Zhang Yan's "Unraveling the Chain, Lonely Goose", which seems to express his thoughts in this way, but in fact, he took some thought when writing this word, borrowed from the plot of a certain TV series, and split the words to be said into strokes, and contained the three words "thank you" in a special way.

When it was already lunchtime, he put the untied Nine Links and the note back into the bag and handed it to Yun Hui and said, "Give this to the Ninth Master, if He Tu asks what it is, just reply 'The Ninth Master will understand it at a glance'." ”

Seeing Yun Hui walk out of the door, he found that he had never been so good for a long time, as if he had seen a rainbow after the rain, which made people suddenly feel bright-

The author has something to say: Hurry up or break the shift for a day, I really want to say sorry to you. The cough is still not good, and it looks like I need to go for an injection. There was another guest at home today, and he stayed until about nine o'clock in the evening before leaving. It's May Day these days, and my actual job is to do e-commerce, so I'm so busy and tired. It was really a house leak that happened to be rainy, and the heart was haggard. But it's okay.,It's not broken for too long.,Old rules.,After this chapter is finished.,An additional update will be added at ten o'clock after dawn.。

In addition,I know that the plot of the farming text in this chapter looks really weird (in fact, it's just a point to stop),The appearance of the nine consecutive rings is also very abrupt.,In fact, I mainly want to highlight the heroine's independent and intelligent and stubborn character.,There's absolutely no meaning of dragging the chapter.,Let's watch it slowly~(~ ̄▽ ̄)~
