Take a break after a busy day
Chu Ying was preparing how to deal with the drought, bought three large vats and put them at home, and was about to fill them all up when it rained.
"Haha, you are in a hurry, you bought the wrong one, how to use these three big tanks," Ye Qiu poured buckets of water into it, fortunately, last time Uncle Qi built a shed on the side of the well water, Ye Qiu took advantage of the rain to fill these three big tanks.
"It can be used to soak hemp, and the hemp material is almost sun-dried, so it's good to put it in it when it's broken." This breaking weather is really unpredictable, and Chu Ying is spending summer here for the first time, so she doesn't know much about the microclimate here, so she is a little nervous.
"En, take advantage of the cool weather to do it quickly, and when the time comes, you can sleep lazy, just cover your wet face and sleep every day, it's strange if you don't get acne when you see it."
Chu Ying pouted and snorted softly and smashed the hemp material in the shed on the other side of Chunzi, fortunately, with this big shed, this big sun and rainy days can work, although it cost a total of almost half a tael of silver, but this will definitely be worth back these silver in the future.
Fortunately, some of the firewood was placed in the house, otherwise there would be no firewood to use to cook paper. "There will be no drought on this day, there has been no drought here, but a few years ago, locusts came, and they ate a lot of rice, and the price of rice rose slowly that year, and you ate it at that time, and you had to spend a lot of silver a day."
Chu Ying sighed, why did she come over at the unlucky time of the original owner, if it was a sick and weak body like before, it would not be bad to be pampered like that.
"However, now that you are here, you are getting more and more energetic, which is very different from in the house, and I don't know if you have left the plague god of the eldest lady or done more work to make your body and bones open."
Chu Ying remembered that Xue Zhiyao had asked herself for the previous prescription, thinking that Ye Qiu might know a thing or two. "What kind of medicine did I drink in the house before?"
"I don't know about this, I have asked the doctor several times, and many prescriptions have been prescribed, but they are not very effective, sometimes good and sometimes bad. What's wrong? Asked about this? ”
"It's nothing, just ask casually, how does the eldest lady treat people? I don't even go out of the boudoir much, but I rarely see her. ”
Ye Qiu put all the good hemp in the big water tank, "Miss, you can see a lot, but you are just sleepy, the eldest lady is ordered by the eldest lady to come to see you every day, just sit and sit casually, chatter with the next person, and sometimes you will say a few words when you wake up." ”
In line with the central principle of no profit and no early in the house, Chu Ying didn't think that this eldest lady was really good to herself, "What about the eldest lady?" What about the eldest lady? Didn't you say last time that the eldest lady took care of me? ”
"The eldest lady is not very good to the eldest lady, but the eldest lady is not enthusiastic about anyone, the eldest lady is chanting Buddha with the old woman in the nunnery all the year round, if you are not chanting Buddha or recuperating and taking medicine, maybe the two of you are sympathetic to each other, so the eldest lady is very good to you."
Her own mother was not intimate with her, but she cared so much about other people's children, Chu Ying felt that the eldest lady must not have a good taste in her heart. "Isn't the eldest lady angry?"
"How can you not be angry, I heard the grandmothers say that the eldest lady was naughty when she was young, and once pushed you into the lake, counting nine cold winters, you can be sick for a long time, and you could have gotten up to move, but then you were sick for more than half a year, and the eldest lady was pulled by the eldest lady to climb the kneeling temple ladder."
"At that time, you were recuperating in the room, and the eldest lady stared at the heavy snow on the long stone staircase to the temple step by step, and then the forehead was bloody, and the top part was stained with blood, and finally fainted at the temple gate and was sent back by the eldest lady."
Chu Ying's heart trembled when she heard these things, if she was the eldest lady, she would definitely hate the original Chu Ying. How could he shout at himself and come to visit every day, it seems that there is a knot in Chu Ying's heart that Chu Ying doesn't know.
Chu Ying stretched out her hand and continued to follow the raindrops that fell from the thatched roof of the shed, Chu Ying didn't want to know more about the previous things of the original owner, now there are so many huts, although she is tired but very happy every day, at least there is no need to intrigue, but thinking that the original owner is always sick, she may not realize that others can have any bad feelings towards her.
After two days of rain, it was much cooler, but without the rain, it slowly became hot, this weather was hot, and the hemp material was faster, Chu Ying and Ye Qiu stepped up to finish all these hemp materials, and rested early after doing it early, Chu Ying didn't want to be roasted like a little black pig by the stove every day.
Waiting for the hemp and the previous wheat material to be done, some wheat material was left as a fire starter, and the others were made into paper, the paper made of this hemp material is whiter and softer than the wheat material, and it is softer, because Chu Ying is brushed back and forth with a brush, which is like a thin line on the paper, because there are more fibers in it after brushing back and forth a few times, these writing brush words are too absorbent, and this paper Chu Ying can not be used to practice calligraphy.
"Chu girl, is this the last car?" Chu Ying moved the packaged paper to Grandpa Li's ox cart, "Yes, it's the last car, you don't have to come back later, and you don't have to get up early tomorrow to take the cool and go into the city, this is 3 yuan of silver, you take it, go back quickly, it's a hot day." Thank you really hard. Chu Ying poured a lot of Liangbai into Grandpa Li's clay pot.
"Isn't it hard to make money? Then I'll go first. Chu Ying helped Ye Qiu clean the yard and several rooms, and piled up all the sundries on the stove in the kitchen so that they could be burned at that time.
"It's finally done, but I haven't seen you go to get the money, not to mention the amount of paper for more than ten cars, how much money can you get? No matter how bad it is, you have to earn back the money you paid to Grandpa Li. ”
"Of course this can, don't worry, Lu Ming won't be greedy for my money, he doesn't lack this money, anyway, there is food at home, let's go to the city in a short time, it's been hot recently, I won't go into the city, and so many are sent to Lu Ming at once, he won't sell them out so quickly, let's go in a few days." After everything was taken care of, Chu Ying took a few buckets of water and poured them into the large wooden barrel in the bathroom, took off the wooden cork and took a shower.
After washing, open the bathroom door to dissipate the heat, and then fetch a few buckets of water for Ye Qiu. "No, I'll come by myself, you see you've just washed this movement and sweated again, go and lie down in the house, and then build a plank in the grove to see that one cooler."
Chu Ying, who had just been lying down, immediately jumped up when she heard this good idea, "Yes, yes, I'll go right away." Chu Ying picked up a stone axe and a bundle of hemp rope and walked towards the grove. First, I picked up several broken logs, cut them into small pieces, sharpened them slightly at one end, beat them with a stone axe, and inserted four rows at a distance of two meters.
Then he spread a long piece of wood with a thickness of his wrist on it, and made a bed board on it, and when he was almost done, he went home and removed a reed curtain that separated him from the bedroom and the outer hall, and brought it and spread it on the wooden bed.
Lying on this wooden bed with a length and width of about two meters, although he was a little panicked, the microclimate of this grove was cooler than outside, and after being busy for so long, Chu Ying fell asleep after a while.
Ye Qiu washed and took two pillows filled with wheat husks, locked the door and went to the grove to look for Chu Ying, and when he found Chu Ying, he saw that the child was sleeping soundly on all fours, Ye Qiu gently lifted Chu Ying's head, put a wheat husk pillow on her, and took a nap next to her.
