Chapter 131: Going to Town
Jin Qishuang's opening was not impulsive, since he promised to do it, so on the morning of the second day, he was ready to leave the town to visit some friends who could be introduced.
Because during the busy farming period, Yongjia Yongli didn't need to go to school, Jin Qishuang and his family simply left the two of them here first, after all, if they found someone, they still had to come back to give Mr. Jin and others news when the time came, and they also saved two small people going back and forth.
And this time, there was also Jin Yun with a dark face.
For several days in a row, tens of thousands of beatings, the hammer could not withstand it, and it broke last night.
Jin Yun had to stop again, there was no way to continue without a hammer, so he could only buy it again.
The furnace room was requisitioned, Yongxin did not go to Master Wei to pick up the work during this time, and when he heard that his sister-in-law was going to buy a hammer, he recommended her to go to Master Wei, although Master Wei was a blacksmith shop, but the general tools were available, and they were all real materials, and the price was also very fair.
Jin Yun wants to go, and Yongxin naturally has to be accompanied.
So the four of them set off in an ox cart towards the town of Yuanli.
On the ox cart, Xu had a thousand words to say to the same person, but the two of them had to hold back.
Holding back his stomach, it was naturally uncomfortable, Xu actually pointed the finger at the little sister, she said: "It's not that the third sister-in-law said you, how can you do this job as a girl, although my father has hope now, but in the end you are still a girl's family, what should I do in the future." ”
Xu Shi looked disapproving, and spoke in a high-spirited tone.
But the words fell for a long time, and I didn't get a reply.
Xu Shi looked sideways, laughed, and didn't speak, even if she didn't have a good time in the future, what did she have to do with it.
I saw Jin Yun tilting her head sideways, leaning on the wooden board of the oxcart with her eyes closed, she didn't hear it, she just didn't want to pay attention to it.
Jin Yun has selfish intentions for everyone, including herself, but the only thing is that she doesn't want to see Xu.
When they arrived in the town, the four of them split into two paths and headed in different directions.
The two of them came to the back alley many times, and each time there was a thick layer of sewage floating on the street, and from time to time there would be a bad smell.
It is precisely because of this that there are not many people who come to this street, and even a few times, except for the shops on both sides, Jin Yun did not see a single person, and this time, in a corner next to it, there were many people standing.
And when they saw the chariot coming, they encircled the man who was inside.
Although the voice was smaller, I could still hear the other person.
"Brother Hu, don't worry, I won't be able to repay your money in a short time." The voice was flattering, but not courteous, as if it was very sure.
"I still don't believe you in all the transactions and food, but you also know that you owe a lot of money this time, and I can't explain it to the top." Brother Hu was covered in a horizontal body, stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of the person surrounded inside, and said, "Let's not embarrass you, you say a day, and I will press you if you ask about it." ”
The man chuckled, and he said, "Brother Tiger is still righteous, and the silver will be given within seven days." ”
Jin Yun in the ox cart frowned slightly at this time, this person's laughter was too high-pitched, and she might not feel anything in other people's ears, but she really didn't like it.
Brother Hu outside left with people, took two steps and turned back and said, "I have a great future, why do you plunge into this place where you don't see the world." ”
The man's eyes flashed a trace of gloom, but it disappeared in an instant, and he said, "Spend all day and drink, happy." ”
The ox cart passed by the man, Jin Yun did not open the curtain to look, and the man did not notice the moving ox cart, but walked forward.
When he came to the blacksmith shop, Master Wei turned around and went back to the back room when he saw the people coming down, and when he came out again, although he still had a scumbag beard, he was neatly dressed.
He said, "Didn't you say behind closed doors? Why is it forged? ”
Master Wei and Yongxin have been friends for many years, what kind of ability Yongxin is of course clear, before the work handed over to Yongxin, at first it was not bad, but after a period of time, the work skills are getting better and better, except for individual details, he has to wonder if it is a skilled master's craft.
Naturally, he couldn't believe that it was Yongxin who made the shot, and after several pressures, he found out that it was actually a little girl.
Although I was surprised, it was more about the love of talent, Jin Yun's skills are good and talented, but there are some experiences that have been accumulated and explored over the years, and these are exactly what Jin Yun does not have.
Master Wei didn't hide his selfishness, and when he saw that there was anything unsatisfactory about the goods handed over, he would definitely tell Yongxinyi one by one, and Yongxin returned to the Jin family and conveyed it to his sister-in-law.
Some time ago, I heard Yongxin say that his sister-in-law was going to try forging weapons, and Master Wei didn't agree very much at that time, after all, Jin Yun had only been in contact with this profession for a short time, and what he needed was the accumulation of experience rather than being ambitious.
But he is neither an elder nor a master, so naturally he has no right to refute, and only hopes that Jin Yun, a little girl, can calm down and concentrate on doing it after she tries to fail.
Although he believed that it was impossible for Jin Yun to forge a good weapon, Master Wei still had a trace of extravagant hope in his heart, and this extravagant hope was very obvious in his eyes.
Jin Yun shook her head, and she said, "The hammer is broken." ”
Master Wei's face stiffened, but fortunately, he couldn't see the beard on his face, and he said, "Sledgehammer or small hammer?" ”
Now the embryo is still being made, using a sledgehammer, and the small hammer has not been used for the time being, but Jin Yun said: "I want both." ”
The use of a small hammer is not about strength, but about skill, and it is used for trimming and detailing. So generally speaking, there will be no problems with the small hammer, but Jin Yun really doesn't want to run all the way in the middle because of the tool.
Although it was just an attempt this time, she knew that she still failed to perform at her best.
She wanted to do it all at once, not to interrupt something every now and then, as she is now.
The interruption in Jin Yun's mouth was not because of those things of the Jin family, although he was a little tired of those trivial matters, but it was just a major matter that needed to be discussed by the family, and this 'family' alone could eliminate the boredom in his heart.
Master Wei didn't think about it, and when he returned to the back room, he took out two hammers, one large and one small, and the black handle and hammer looked very inconspicuous.
But just by looking at it, Jin Yun could see that it was a good thing, and she said, "I don't have that much silver." ”
Master Wei's eyes widened, and he said, "I didn't say I would sell it to you." ”
Jin Yun picked up the small hammer and weighed it in his hand, it was very light, but looking at the mark on it, he could see that it was not brand new, but the traces of someone who had used it.
"These two hammers are a gift from a friend, I am lending them to you now, when you are not interested in the blacksmith's business, return them, don't spoil things." Master Wei had nostalgia in his eyes, but he was not reluctant, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Jin Yun didn't refuse, she held the hammer in her hand, and she didn't feel uncomfortable for the first time, but she was very adaptable.
"Now it's time for what step."
Jin Yun naturally wouldn't hide it, Master Wei was experienced and could point out her shortcomings, so she slowly told her thoughts and processes one by one, and when she said folding and forging, it caused Master Wei to be stunned.
"How many folds did you say?" Master Wei asked, feeling like he was having auditory hallucinations.
What she said was interrupted, and Jin Yun repeated it again, she said, "The seventh time has been completed. ”
"Sss Master Wei couldn't believe it, he couldn't stop looking at the little girl opposite, and it was a miracle to see her complete.
In just a few days, seven folds and forging have been completed. To know that one folding forging is seven. Eight thousand punches, this is not as easy as an ordinary punch, but every punch is accompanied by the strength of the whole body. One can imagine how laborious it is to fold and forge in one single attempt, let alone complete seven times in such a short period of time.
Even him, even if he has so many years of running-in, he will feel tired all over his body once he comes down.
But now this little girl stood in front of him as if nothing had happened, and there was no discomfort in her body at all.
Even with the right hand weighing the small hammer, the posture is also very flexible.
If these words came out of other people's mouths, Master Wei was afraid that he would not believe it, but in the face of Jin Yun, he trusted in his heart, and at this moment, he suddenly had a strong thought, wanting to take a look at that weapon.
"Okay, I've already chosen, hurry back." Master Wei waved his hand, drove the two out of the blacksmith shop like ducks, and did not forget to explain: "When the weapon is born, it will definitely be brought to me to see." ”
After speaking, he was a little worried, and he hurriedly added: "Or let the Yongxin boy bring me a message, and I can come to the door." ”
And at that end, Jin Qishuang, who returned home, also had some contradictions.
As soon as the front foot crossed the threshold, Xu Shi said: "Why did you open your mouth so lightly, are you really ready to take out the silver to redeem people?" ”
Jin Qishuang's temperament Xu Shi knows, he never intervenes when he ignores things, and now that he has opened his mouth, it will definitely not be to deal with the old couple, but he really intends to meddle in.
Before coming again, Jin Qishuang also asked Mr. Jin how much silver he could take out at home.
And the old man's words were even more shocked, Xu Shi was simply stunned when he heard a hundred taels of silver, you know, in addition to the silver brought by Yang Xianghan every year, the family couldn't take out one or two at all.
It is precisely because of this that she has a comfortable life in the town, and she doesn't want the people from her hometown to get involved, such a big family, really relying on their house, must not be crushed.
But now it's different, with a hundred taels of silver, she can do a lot of things, and she is even more reluctant to spend money on an outsider.
Jin Qishuang nodded, he went back to the house and took some silver and put it on his body, and prepared to go out to look for someone.
Xu Shi hurriedly pulled it, she said: "With this money, you don't have to put down your books to go into business, don't you have your own dreams." ”
Go to the exam, this is what he has been working towards, Jin Qishuang closed his eyes, his fists clenched, just when Xu thought he would change his mind.
Jin Qishuang opened his eyes again, with firmness in his eyes, and said, "Back then, I never told my family the news you brought me. ”
With the identity of a scholar, you can mix a civilian job in the army. These are the words brought to him by Xu, who was not yet a beginner. Because of this sentence, he didn't sleep peacefully for several days, and he was afraid that his father and mother would decide to let him go to the army after knowing about it.
It's true, if Old Man Jin knows about it, he will definitely let San Lang go.
The clerical job is also hard, but there will be no danger to life, Mr. Jin never expects a talent to be produced in the family, and even if he wants to study, Jin Qishuang insists on it, if Mr. Jin knows, in order not to let the other three sons give up their lives, he will definitely sacrifice him.
Life is more important than the future.
He was cowardly, in fact, when the fourth brother left without saying goodbye, he still had the opportunity to exchange the fourth brother back, but he still kept his mouth shut, as if he didn't know. Later, when the Jin family learned the news, he also put on a regretful look.
Even he felt very disgusted by his coy appearance, but on the one hand, he was not ashamed of himself, and on the other hand, he lived well in that peaceful and peaceful place.
He studied hard day and night, and although he didn't get into the exam, he still got a child.
Jin Qishuang didn't regret it, he couldn't stop being excited in his heart, and he was glad that he didn't say it.
Although there is no remorse, the guilt that I harbor is always there.
Over the years, he has woken up from a dream many times, and the scene in the dream is something he doesn't want to think about, he only hopes.
He continued: "Just this time, it should be regarded as repaying the fourth brother, and I will not owe anything in the future." ”
Xu also remembered that back then, her family was better than the Jin family, and the reason why she took a fancy to the Jin family Saburo was precisely because he was a scholar.
At that time, the two decided to get married, and the day of marriage was about to come, but they didn't want to suddenly face the crisis of recharging the army.
Although the conditions of their family are slightly better, they will not take the silver to the Jin family, and the news is that she overheard her father's words. Father and mother also think that San Lang will have a better chance of being sent, and if he really goes, their family will definitely have to quit the Jin family.
No matter how good the girl who quit her family is, she will be inferior, and the meaning of her father's words is to marry her to a farmer who plows the land, compared to Jin Jiashiro, who is handsome and a scholar, she naturally will not be willing, so she secretly passed the news to Jin Qishuang, and also hoped that he could think of a way.
And some of the things that happened later were that she ......
Xu's hand that grabbed Jin Qishuang's sleeve loosened, she was in a dilemma now, and she didn't know what to do.
On the one hand, he was unwilling, and on the other hand, he felt a little guilty in his heart like Saburo.
She sighed and said, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Zhao Rui." Jin Qishuang said: "I accidentally learned that Brother Zhao knew a steward of the Shi family, and I had to come to the door if it didn't work out." ”
Xu Shi was not at ease, she said: "If it really happens, what should I do when I see that in charge, what should I ask for?" ”
Jin Qishuang shook his head, he didn't say anything, and walked out of the door.
The sky-high asking price, their Jin family only has this hundred taels of silver, if Shi Fu is really willing to let people go, he has no way, let alone think about what to do.
He only knew that in order to repay the love of his fourth brother, he would do his best, but whether the result could be achieved or not did not depend on him. (To be continued.) )
