The waterwheel was erected, and the river water entered the canal and flowed down the canal through the fields, temporarily solving the problems of the fields, and also freeing the villagers from carrying water every day to do something else. www.biquge.info The hand-pressed well has been installed, this iron pimple is safer and more convenient than ordinary wells, and there will be no people who fall into the well, and children can press the handle to make the hand-pressed well flow water. After a few days, when the water in the river was completely dry, the villagers pressed the well by hand to draw water and poured the water into the nearby canal, saving them a lot of effort.

Looking at all this, the village chief and the villagers all had hopeful smiles on their faces. ‘

Like the villagers of Aoba Village, the prefectural magistrate also took action as soon as he returned to the county seat. He first summoned the blacksmiths, showed them the actual hand-pressed wells, and ordered a group of blacksmiths to make a third hand-pressed well in three days, and then submitted one of the hand-pressed wells and the information to the imperial court. He arranged for people to vigorously promote waterwheels and hand-pressed wells. The installation of water wheels in the area of the river and the installation of at least one hand-pressed well in each village have greatly alleviated the water shortage in the county, so that the people finally have water to irrigate their crops. Some of the crops were killed by the previous drought, but the sweet potatoes were drought tolerant and almost all of them were alive. The people are serving sweet potatoes like children, hoping that these sweet potatoes will become life-saving food in the second half of the year and next year.

In the capital, the emperor was worried about the drought, and the magistrate presented him, which just solved his troubles. The emperor immediately asked the household department and the ministry of industry to implement the waterwheel and the hand-pressed well, so that the two things spread throughout the Great Zhou in less than half a month, which greatly alleviated the drought problem. The emperor praised the prefect and promoted him to the prefect, and the name of Aoba Village appeared in front of the emperor for the first time, and he remembered it - the prefect did not dare to say that the things came from the rewards of the ancestors of Aoba Village, for fear that the emperor would reprimand him for being confused, and only said that the things came from Aoba Village, which was handed down by the ancestors of Aoba Village. The emperor gave Aoba a plaque with the title of "Village of Good Fortune" and exempted the village from paying taxes for three years. Now, the villagers have more food left.

When the drought came, the eldest brother of the Li family was on the way with the army, looking at the arid fields, the eldest brother of the Li family was also very worried, but it was simple for him to find water sources in the desert and in the mountains and forests, but if he wanted to solve the drought problem, it was still the same sentence, "There is a specialization in the art industry", and the eldest brother of the Li family couldn't do it! When I was about to arrive in the capital, waterwheels and hand-pressed wells bloomed everywhere in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Looking at the hand-pressed wells that he often used when he was a child in his previous life, the eldest brother of the Li family admired it. That compatriot not only sold plastic bottles and lighters, but now even hand-pressed wells have appeared. The hand-pressed well is not as good as a plastic bottle and a lighter, and the latter two may have been passed along with the compatriots, but the hand-pressed well may be dragged through the headquarters of the compatriots, right? Even the information of such an old antique as the hand-pressed well, the eldest brother of the Li family simply admires this compatriot, he won't cross with a Du Niang search system, right?

"Wei Feng, what are you thinking?" Geng Shi'an patted his horse and trotted to the side of the eldest brother of the Li family.

The eldest brother of the Li family smiled: "I will go to the capital tomorrow, I think about buying some special products in the capital during the holidays in two days, and let the people from the same village help me take them home." ”

The eldest brother of the Li family has a high status and can't leave the army casually, but the other young people from Aoba Village have no official positions, so they want to leave the army and hurry home to see their father and mother hugging their daughter-in-law. The eldest brother of the Li family told them that they would help bring the letter and gifts home to their younger brothers and sisters.

Geng Shi'an was a little ashamed that he didn't think of his parents, so he said, "I'll go with you and buy some gifts for my family." ”

The eldest brother of the Li family agreed.

Yue Yunfei jumped over, his face was excited and his eyebrows danced: "You want to buy gifts to get me, I am familiar with the capital, and when the time comes, you can buy it at a discount when you go to those cheap and high-quality shops." ”

"Then it's up to you, brother." Geng Shi'an said.

Yue Yunfei smiled hesitantly, stepped forward and said: "It will be the Qixi Festival in a few days, and the Qixi Festival in the capital will hold a lantern festival, so let's go to the Lantern Festival together, right?" ”

Geng Shi'an looked at his face full of "I have a happy event" and cut it: "Forget it, we don't want to make candles and disturb you and the county lord of Moyan." ”

Yue Yunfei was dumbfounded: "How do you know that I made an appointment with the county lord?" ”

The eldest brother of the Li family sneered: "Just look at your expression." ”

Yue Yunfei touched his face in a daze: "Obviously? ”

"It's so obvious." Geng Shi'an smiled, "You should look in the mirror, the **** smile on your face has never gone down." ”

Yue Yunfei bared his teeth at Geng Shi'an: "Nonsense, you are **** laughing!" I'm smiling with happiness. ”

"Hey, allow me to vomit for a while." ‘

"Geng Shi'an!"

Qixi Festival is a beautiful festival, which is both Valentine's Day and Daughter's Day in China. On this night, the girls will beg their nieces in heaven for wisdom and skill, and inevitably ask her for a happy marriage, so it is also called "Begging Day". There are no lanterns to see in the small county, but the girls in the village are still looking forward to this day. Li Zhoule made himself a beautiful new dress before this, the clothes are roughly the same as the clothes in this world, but many small details are different, very exquisite. These were altered by Li Zhoule based on the pictures sent by Han Nuo. The hanfu made by modern people is not as good-looking as the ancient ones, but some places are quite distinctive.

When Wen Zixia saw Li Zhoule wearing new clothes, he was stunned for a moment. Today's Li Zhoule is as beautiful as the Weaver Girl. Li Yishu and Wen Ziyu covered their mouths and snickered, and one of them stretched out a hand and pulled Wen Zixia out. Although they don't have to worship the Weaver Girl tonight, they will worship Kuixing. July 7 is Kuixing's birthday. "Kuixing Wenshi", the scholar who wants to seek fame should respect Kuixing, worship on the day of Qixi Festival, and pray for him to bless himself with good luck in the examination. Guan Rulin's family ** worships Kuixing, the Wen brothers and Li Yishu all go to his house, and some children in the village who have studied with Guan Rulin will also worship Kuixing together when the time comes. For this reason, Li Zhoule prepared several plates of snacks and a piece of meat for them as sacrifices.

Seeing Wen Zixia being dragged out by his younger brother, Li Zhoule lowered his head and smiled happily. Xiao Ju shouted from outside the courtyard: "Sister Zhou Le, hurry up and come out to worship the Weaver Girl." ”

"Here we are." Li Zhoule hurriedly picked up the basket he had prepared early in the morning and walked out of the yard.

"Sister Zhou Le, let's go." As soon as Xiao Ju saw Li Zhoule come out, she immediately grabbed her wrist. Xiaoju is the daughter of her neighbor Uncle Dongmu, only one year younger than Li Zhoule, and she is a lively and lovely girl.

On the way, the two of them met Biye and Jiang Daya and several girls, each carrying a small basket, and they walked together to the open space in front of this hall. There was a table in the clearing, on which was placed a small incense burner, and on each side of the incense burner was a vase, which was already filled with flowers, which had been picked by the other girls who had come first. Xiaoju and Aoba opened their baskets and put the longan, red dates, hazelnuts, peanuts, and melon seeds they brought into the five empty plates behind the incense burner, and Yuhua took out two persimmons and put them into another empty plate. There was also a girl who took out tea and incense candles.

Li Zhoule also opened his basket and took out a small bottle of wine and wine glasses from it. Xiao Ju took it, poured wine into the wine glass and served it to the table. Li Zhoule took out another plate, which contained small round snacks. This is Qiaoguo, also known as "Qiqiao Fruit", which is a fruit that is specially eaten on the day of Qiqiao Festival. In "Tokyo Menghualu", it is called "laughing and disgusting" and "fruit food patterns", and the patterns are incense, Fang Sheng, etc., most of which are made into diamond-shaped shuttle shapes like weaving cloth, but there are also pinched into other shapes, and Li Zhoule is directly made into a circle for convenience.

"Wow, Sister Zhou Le made a beggar fruit." Xiao Ju happily took the plate and drooled over the Qiaoguo on it.

Aoba patted her: "It's not promising." ”

Xiao Ju snorted: "Don't say that you don't covet the clever fruit made by Sister Zhou Le." ”

Aoba choked a little, in fact, she also likes to eat the Qiaoguo made by Li Zhoule, it is very delicious.

Han Cui, the eldest of the girls' middle grades, chuckled and relieved them: "All are ready, let's come and worship the Weaver Girl together." ”

Hancui is three years older than Li Zhoule, and she has been engaged to Uncle Mancang's youngest son Gen Miao since she was a child, but before she could reach her, Gen Miao was pulled to join the army, and there has been no news for many years. Seeing that Hancui was getting older, Uncle Mancang and Aunt Mancang felt sorry for this girl and asked her to find someone to marry again. But this girl is a dead eye, saying that Genmiao will be widowed for him when he dies, and will never marry. Uncle Mancang and Aunt Mancang were greatly moved, and loved Hancui as their own daughter. Fortunately, people have good rewards, a while ago, everyone in the village who went out to join the army sent news back, Genmiao is finally coming back, and Hancui's family has begun to prepare a dowry for her. Hancui's skill is no less than that of Zhou Le, she is able to carve melons and fruits into the shape of exotic flowers and birds, and emboss patterns on the surface of melon skins. A plate of "flower melon" in the center of the table is carved with emerald.

Burning incense and praying, all the girls prayed silently to the Weaver Girl, most of them begged the Weaver Girl to give them a wishful husband. Li Zhoule doesn't have this idea, she now has Wen Zixia, an excellent fiancé, and she also knows Sister Han, a "fairy", and her family life is getting better and better, and there is nothing to beg for. However, it was still worshiped and worshiped with the public's devotion to worship, after all, the Weaver Girl is a god and must be respected. Maybe the Weaver Girl still knows Sister Han, so she can't surprise the Weaver Girl and let her sue Sister Han. (To be continued.) )
