"Third sister, come out quickly."

Early in the morning, Yun Yao heard Qi Jing calling her outside, and quickly cleaned up, and saw a large pile of iron objects in the courtyard, she immediately laughed when she saw it: "It's all done." ”

"It's done, you can see if it's suitable." Qi Jing replied as he fiddled with those things.

Yun Yao took a few steps over and took a few pages-shaped pieces of iron to look at for a while, then took a round thing, inserted the iron sheet on it and fixed it, and then found an iron frame to install it, and then installed a number of iron chains and spring-like things one by one, and installed the last opportunity, twisted a flat thing exposed outside and turned it many times, and when Yun Yao let go, the iron piece rotated, and the iron sheet rotated rapidly, driving a gust of airflow, and in an instant, Qi Jing's hair was blown as if the wind was blowing.

"It's not very good, but it can be used together." Yun Yao can't help it, the technology in the ancient times was too backward, and she didn't say that there were no conditions for what she wanted to do, but she couldn't create the conditions if she wanted to.

"That's good." Qi Jing already felt very good, he waited for the iron piece to stop turning, then picked it up and wanted to go to the kitchen to install it.

Yun Yao was still a little embarrassed: "I still have to do manual work, it's too backward, if I ......"

She thought that if her mental strength was higher, she might be able to change the molecular structure of some things, so that many things could be powered by solar energy, and life would be much easier.

When Yun Yao sighed here, Qi Jing had already installed this simple ventilation fan on the wall not far in front of the stove, and the Qi Jinzhi sisters were watching, watching Qi Jing twist the mechanism, the ventilation fan began to rotate violently, and the whole family looked straight.

Especially Qi Gu's family, he couldn't stop praising Yun Yao for being a smart person.

Qi Jing called Qi Laoniu and Yun Yao to go to the front yard to get water into the side, and the three of them spent a morning finally getting the pressurized water well right, and when they pressed the handle up and down, a stream of clear water came out of the pipe, which made the Qi family gasp in shock.

"It's much easier to use water in the future." Qi Jinzhi smiled and put the bucket in front of the pipe. After a while, a bucket of water was filled, and she took a sip and tasted it: "It's sweet, and it doesn't even taste like rust." ”

Yun Yao smiled, naturally she didn't have anything in her heart. She used mental power to strengthen the pressurized water well from the water outlet upwards, and the well pressurizer would not even burst a piece of slag for ten or eight years, and where did the rust come from.

Qi Laoniu watched a few girls chattering and laughing around the well, and there was a smile on his old face, looking at Yun Yao who was busy testing the pressurized water well. I also feel satisfied and agreed.

In order to celebrate the convenience of water at home, the smell of kitchen fumes is much less, and the lunch at noon is very hearty.

In addition to the fragrant white rice that is steamed in a large pot and full of grains, there is also a large pot of stewed soft pork, a pot of chicken soup, a large plate of scrambled eggs with leeks, and fresh spinach, as well as the most eye-catching roasted whole hare with crispy skin and soft meat.

Yun Yao ate two large bowls of rice on the whole dish, and she almost couldn't walk when she was so full that she still helped her around the courtyard a few times. When she returned to her room, she rubbed her stomach vigorously before she ate.

Qi Jinzhi looked at Yun Yao's uncomfortable appearance, although he laughed at her as if he had never seen food, but when he went back, he still cooked a bowl of mountain slag water for her to drink.

Yun Yao slept beautifully, and when she got up, she heard the sound of chattering in the yard.

She put on a coat and went out, and saw Qi Gu sitting in the courtyard doing work, Jin Zhi and Yinzhu were washing clothes, copper locks moved the quilt out to dry, Yun Yao sat down next to Qi Gu, and then picked up a piece of cloth to embroider.

Qi Gu saw that Yun Yao was so handy at needlework, and the embroidered flowers were very vivid, and there was a burst of envy in his eyes. Then he shook his head and began to pick up the soles of his shoes again.

After a few stitches, Qi Gu looked up at the Qi Jinzhi sisters, with a sad look in his eyes.

Yun Yao quickly caught Qi Gu's emotions. Turning his head and smiling: "What's wrong with my mother?" What are you worried about? ”

When she asked, Qi Gu sighed: "It's not that I'm worried about your sister, you also look at it, which of your sisters and sisters are capable, but it's a pity that they don't grow very well, and they can't talk about their in-laws until now." Every time I think about it, I feel like I'm worried, this girl's family can't get married, so she can't be an old aunt for the rest of her life. ”

Yun Yao looked at the sisters who were working in the yard, and felt sorry for Jin Zhi and them.

What a good person, if this was put in her time, I don't know how many rich politicians and generals would be pursued, but she was born in this era of abnormal aesthetics, and she was destined to be ridiculed and despised.

Yun Yao had also been despised like that, how could she not know such suffering.

To be honest, Yun Yao really doesn't understand the aesthetics of people in this era.

How could a human being like the Qi family be robust, powerful, with textured skin and positive color, how could he be ugly?

After coming for so many days, Yun Yao has a feeling of vomiting blood every time she hears that she looks good, and she really can't do it, and every time she sees those white and thin men and women who are praised by people of this era, she can hardly bear to look at them directly.

With more than 200 years of normal aesthetics, Yun Yao will never allow herself to be led crooked in this era.

"Your eldest sister is in her twenties, and she still ......" Qi Gu sighed again, and the sadness in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Yun Yao also felt worried when she saw it, and suddenly, she thought of the Zhou scholar that her eldest sister liked, and immediately smiled, approached Qi Gu's and said: "Mother, in fact, this matter is not very difficult, as long as the sisters in the family have someone they like, let's try our best to help them make their wishes come true, do you think, everyone in our family has a lot of strength, and they are all capable, as long as they get married, no matter who they marry, they will not be wronged, especially the eldest sister, who has the heart and strength, as long as she marries out, she will definitely be able to control her future brother-in-law." ”

Qi Gu's eyes also lit up when he heard this, and he grabbed Yun Yao, and asked in a trembling voice: "What do you think, talk to your mother." ”

Yun Yao glanced at Qi Jinzhi, who was still busy working, and smiled: "The eldest sister has taken a fancy to Zhou Shusheng in the west of the city, I heard Xianggong say that this Zhou Shusheng is also a sincere person, a righteous gentleman, and his family is very poor, and now the two elders of the Zhou family are sick in bed, and his family even has no money for medical treatment, I thought, as long as we have more dowry, this marriage can be completed." ”

Qi Gu's family was happy at first, and then worried: "If you can succeed, you can succeed, but the Zhou family is poor, don't you have to suffer if your eldest sister marries in the past." ”

Yun Yao smiled again: "It's okay, let's help the Zhou family get through the current difficulties first, in the future, with the eldest sister's ability, this day will definitely get better and better, besides, Zhou Shusheng is a literate person, as long as he is motivated to get famous in the future, the eldest sister will be the official wife." ”

Qi Gu's family likes to read very much, and after listening to Yun Yao's analysis, he was already very satisfied with the Zhou family.

She pondered for a long time, but she was still unsure: "But Zhou Shu grows so well, can he take a fancy to your eldest sister?" ”

patted Qi Gu's hand, Yun Yao comforted her: "What are you worried about, haven't you heard a word, this matchmaker has two mouths, and the dead can be said to be alive, I heard Xianggong tell one thing, a few years ago, a rich man in our Lotus Town married a daughter-in-law, and the rich family was in his sixties and wanted to marry a young and good-looking person, and promised the matchmaker a lot of money, and the matchmaker hid the age of the rich family for several years when he said that the matchmaker was the matchmaker, and he really asked for a good daughter-in-law." ”

Hearing Yun Yao say this, Qi Gu thought in his heart that his son, who was not very talkative and usually silent most of the time, could talk so much in front of his daughter-in-law, and even told his daughter-in-law such a thing, and at the same time thought that if he gave the matchmaker more money, maybe this marriage could be done.

As soon as he thought that he could get rid of the eldest in the family, Qi Gu's mood brightened.

After dinner, they went back to their rooms to rest, not to mention how Yun Yao discussed Qi Jinzhi's marriage with Qi Jing, but Qi Gu and Qi Laoniu also told her and Yun Yao about what she discussed.

Don't look at Qi Lao Niu usually doesn't speak, and he doesn't care about things at home, but he is a successful person, in fact, he has long been worried about the marriage of the girls in the family, and now when he hears Qi Gu say this, he feels that it is feasible to calculate.

The next day, Qi Gu found the most skillful and eloquent Mrs. Hao in the town, she told Mrs. Hao about the Zhou family, and said that she planned to marry the eldest girl in the family to the Zhou family.

This Hao Pozi patted her chest and promised to tell Qi Gu that she should rest assured that with her two mouths, the marriage would definitely be completed.

Zhou family

The illness of the second elder of the Zhou family is getting worse and worse, Zhou Hongwen has pawned everything that can be pawned at home, and the family is now poor and white, except for a few clothes and a quilt, there is almost nothing.

Mrs. Zhou is making a fuss about selling herself, and Mrs. Zhou is also sad every day.

Although she is not in a good mood every day, and she is worried about it, Mrs. Zhou still tries her best to help the family, she has also learned some needlework outside these years, and she can also exchange some money for staying up every day to do needlework.

It's just that the little money she used to do needlework was enough to buy medicine for her parents.

On this day, Zhou Hongwen went out to copy letters again, only to exchange some money and take medicine home, and when he walked to the door, he saw Hao Pozi, the most skillful woman in the town, standing at the door of the house.

Zhou Hongwen was stunned: "Mother Hao? ”

"It's me." Hao Pozi fanned the wind with a handkerchief, and said: "Your house is really hard to find, ouch, my old legs and arms are really tired from coming, hurry up, bring me some water to drink." ”

Zhou Hongwen is a humble gentleman, as soon as he heard Mrs. Hao say that she was thirsty, she immediately let Mrs. Hao into the house, and asked Mrs. Zhou to pour her a bowl of water to drink.

Mrs. Hao smiled while drinking water: "I came to your house today, but there is a big happy event." ”

"What's the happy event?" Zhou Hongwen and Zhou Xiaoniang both asked with surprise on their faces.

Both of them wondered if there was anyone who took a fancy to Zhou Xiaoniang and wanted to say goodbye, but these two people were stunned and didn't think about Zhou Hongwen, it was really that the Zhou family was too poor, and which girl was willing to marry Zhou Hongwen and be poor, even if Zhou Hongwen was a scholar.
