50. Special
In fact, the straw weaving side is used to make zongzi leaves, because the zongzi leaves are more flexible after cooking, but now there is no such condition, Tong Xue uses corn leaves that look similar to each other, corn leaves are actually very brittle, and they can't maintain their shape for a long time, but it's just a temporary entertainment.
With the flexible movement of Tong Xue's fingers, Xu Wan saw what Tong Xue was doing, "Sister-in-law, are you making a dragonfly?" ”
Tong Xue smiled, and Shoushan's movements did not pause, "Yes, you can see it, I haven't done it for a long time, and I'm rusty." ”
Xu Wan stared at Tong Xue with admiration, feeling that her sister-in-law would do anything, "You are so skillful." ”
Rich people have rich people's childhoods, and poor people also have poor people's childhoods, Tong Xue can't imagine what those playgrounds that only appear on TV look like, so she can only find fun from life.
Tong Xue quickly finished, and a lifelike dragonfly appeared, "When I was a child, no one played with me, and I didn't have toys, so I pondered by myself, and when I saw others doing this vividly, I also went to learn, and I secretly studied for a long time, but I also learned to make dragonflies and grasshoppers." ”
Tong Xue saw that Xu Wan's hat was also about to end, so she handed the dragonfly over, "Sew this on the brim of the hat." ”
Xu Jing was stunned, she was a little sleepy, but when she saw the hat decorated with dragonflies, she couldn't take her eyes off, "Sister-in-law, is this for us?" ”
Tong Xue likes Xu Jing and Xu Wenzhao's sensibility very much, in the past, Tong Xue has not seen bear children, that combat power is simply breaking through the sky, where is it like these two children, so obedient and painful, it always makes Tong Xue can't help but want to be better to them, "Yes, yours are different from others, do you like it?" ”
Xu Jing nodded vigorously, and immediately put the straw hat on the top of her head, "I like it so much, thank you, sister-in-law." ”
Although in terms of Tong Xue's aesthetics, it is only slightly ugly, the straw hat is too rough, the wheat straw is originally braided, not bleached, the color is slightly strange, and a straw weave is placed in the place where it should be a cute flower or other decorations, which is quite nondescript, but inexplicably, Tong Xue just feels very happy to make such a straw hat, and it seems that she was infected by Xu Jing.
Xu Wenzhao, who didn't come over, saw that his sister was wearing a strange hat on her head, and she couldn't sit still anymore, so she ran over and looked at Tong Xue and Xu Wan with blank eyes, "Sister-in-law, sister, do I have it?" ”
Xu Wan finished the final finishing work, and then handed it to Xu Wenzhao, "Na, yours are indispensable." ”
Xu Wenzhao took it with a smile, saw that his little straw hat was not a dragonfly, it was a grasshopper, and then took it on his head and rushed to Xu Wenda and Xu Wenyuan's side, "Big brother and second brother, look, is my hat good-looking, sister-in-law and sister made it for me." ”
Xu Wenyuan took off Xu Wenzhao's hat at once, looked at it carefully, during the day, he just thought Tong Xue was talking casually, but he didn't expect the effect to look good, especially the straw on this straw hat
, looking strange fresh.
Xu Wenyuan put it on his head, but he could only rest on top of his head, Xu Wenzhao jumped to reach his hat, and shouted anxiously, "This is mine, this one of mine is different from yours." ”
Probably no matter what era it is, this special thing is very attractive to children, for example, now, in the past, Xu Wenzhao rarely had trouble with Xu Wenyuan, but now he is particularly persistent.
Xu Wan looked at her brother and younger brother chasing after me for a hat, and her heart moved, and then she came to Tong Xue's side, "Sister-in-law, you said that we made this hat, Wen Zhao and the second brother like it so much, can we sell it at the market?" ”
is probably influenced by Tong Xue, so now Xu Wan is particularly keen on selling things to make money, but will anyone buy straw hats?
If this straw hat is just to say a word, others will naturally find it not easy, but if you see the real thing, these ancient people who are used to doing work, I am afraid that they can see through it at a glance, and they don't see Xu Wan just learned it, and it is better than themselves?
The biggest difference between this kind of thing and pastry tofu is that the latter requires craftsmanship, but the former only takes time, and this thing is only needed to block the sun by people in the village who can go to the ground, and they will be willing to spend money to buy a hat that is not actually impossible to wear?
Tong Xue was skeptical about this, but seeing that Xu Wan was so enthusiastic and active in thinking about making money, she could only say, "Tomorrow we will all wear straw hats and see how the people in the village react." After all, we like it, not necessarily everyone else. ”
Xu Wan looked at the straw hat on the table regretfully, "Yes, but the hat we make is so practical, everyone must think it's good." ”
Tong Xue patted Xu Wan on the shoulder, and stopped the endless chase between Xu Wenzhao and Xu Wenyuan, "Hurry up and go to bed, I have to get up early tomorrow and go to the ground." ”
Thinking that they could wear a new hat to work tomorrow, Xu Wenzhao and Xu Jing immediately ran to Tong Xue and Xu Wan, washed up and prepared to go to bed.
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Tong Xue had already gotten up, originally she was a night owl, but now after coming here, she slept too early at night, and directly led her to sleep until she woke up naturally every day, but found that the sky had just dawned, and the previous thing of sleeping until noon never happened again.
In the morning, Tong Xue made small rice, accompanied by cucumbers and some wild vegetables, and it tasted a little, and everyone was very full.
Having learned the lesson of yesterday, Tong Xue cooked a large pot of mung bean soup, and poured it into a water bladder after it cooled, and the mung bean soup was boiled with well water in the space. The mung bean soup without sugar should have been a little astringent, but after adding the space well water, not only did it not have it, but it also felt a sweet feeling, and after one bite, the whole person was a lot cooler.
After making a qiē preparation, the family went to the field wearing freshly baked straw hats.
In the morning, the sun wasn't so hot, but at noon, my body was scorched by the sun through my clothes, but because I was wearing a straw hat on my head, although I still felt very hot, it was really better than yesterday when I was all exposed to the sun.
Tong Xue even felt that with this straw hat in the way, she could work for half an hour more, and the two villains were jumping up and down in the ground to pick up ears of wheat, very happy, not a little tired, probably with a new hat, so she was extra motivated.
