In the backyard of the Wood Academy, Cai Yan stood beside the wooden case that was too wide to speak, his fingers slid over the smooth lacquer surface of the wooden case, and his face showed a little envy.

"With such a large bookcase, you can put a lot of books."

"Haha, you can put a lot of books and sleep on them." Zhang Zifu jumped over and pulled Cai Yan's sleeve to show her the heating copper pipe in the corner. "See, there are a lot of copper pipes like this under the floor of this house, and there is hot water in them, so it's not cold. When it snowed in those days, a few of us slept in this room, and I liked to sleep on this case, which was big and spacious, and it wouldn't fall to the ground no matter how much I rolled. ”

"It won't land yet, who fell down three times in the middle of the night and slept like a little babpy?" Feng Wan pushed the door in, saw Cai Yan at a glance, quickly closed his mouth, and stepped forward to salute. "Jingzhao Feng Wan, I've seen the Cai family's sister."

Cai Yan returned the salute, glanced at Feng Wan, pursed his lips and smiled. "I can't imagine that there is such a beautiful woman in the world, this is probably the legendary alluring country and city."

Feng Wanran was stunned. "Colored women are not uncommon, but there are very few who are as talented as their sisters. My sister came just in time, Sister Qin was dedicated to being a virtuous helper, we were worried that the matter of this loom would be abandoned halfway, and with my sister, we didn't have to worry. ”

"What loom?" Cai Yan was inexplicable and blinked curiously.

Feng Wan and Zhang Zifu exchanged a look and smiled understandingly. She slipped out of the house and went to discuss with Zhang Zifu, but Zhang Zifu was not at home and said that she was going to find Cai Yan. She ran to Cai's house again, but Cai Yong's father and daughter were not at home. She was helpless, and ran to Mu Xuetang to discuss with Huang Yueying, but found Zhang Zifu's car, and immediately understood that Zhang Zifu, like her, was worried about the difficulties in developing the loom, so she went to Cai Yan for help.

Feng Wan briefly told what happened, but Cai Yan didn't think so. The smile on his face was still the same, but his eyes were a little indifferent.

"This is a small skill, the craftsman did it, why are you so enthusiastic?"

When Feng Wan heard this, he was greatly disappointed. Zhang Zifu was a little unhappy, and blurted out: "Sister Cai, you can't say that, my sister is Chen Liuren, Chen Liuxiangyi's brocade is the best in the world, and her reputation is not weaker than literature." ”

Cai Yan smiled. "Chen Liuxiangyi's brocade is indeed famous, but when people all over the world talk about Chen Liu, there is Yiyin far away, and there is a strong order recently, but they have never heard of a weaver woman. If the younger sister of the husband wants to leave a name in history, it is better to study the history of the scriptures than to study the loom. There are many famous people in Guanzhong, and everyone in the Fufeng class is the person I admire the most. People who are known for brocade, there are a few mentioned in the history books, but they don't have names, and my sister is afraid that she will be disappointed. ”

Huang Yueying walked in with a kettle, with a few teacups under her arm. When Feng Wan saw it, he hurriedly walked over to pick it up, took the kettle again, sniffed the aroma, and said with a smile: "Sister Cai, sister Zifu, come and drink the Jutan water in Sixian County, extinguish the fire, moisten your throat, and slowly theorize." ”

Huang Yueying raised her eyelids and looked at Cai Yan for a moment. "You are Mr. Cai's only daughter, Cai Yan and Cai Zhaoji?"

Cai Yan bowed to him. "Chen Liucai Yan, I have seen Miss Huang, I came uninvited, and I also invited Haihan."

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm very hospitable, they often come to eat and drink." Huang Yueying circled around Cai Yan twice and said with a smile: "Sister, you really talk like Mr. Cai." ”

Cai Yan blinked, puzzled.

"Sister Cai, can I ask you a question?"

"Don't dare to be."

"Food and clothing, which is more important?"

Cai Yan thought for a moment. "Of course, food is important, Han Shuyun: the king takes the people as the sky, and the people take food as the sky. Confucius talked about politics and said: Enough food and enough soldiers, the trust of the people. ”

Huang Yueying smiled and said, "Is life and death important, or is etiquette important?" ”

Cai Yan replied without thinking: "Of course, etiquette is important. Shiyun: People have no etiquette, what is not death! People are rude, and Hu Bu dies! ”

Huang Yueying sat down on the side of the desk, calm and relaxed. "That's right. Cultivating and weaving also said that cultivating land is for food, and there is no food but death. Weaving is the crown, but the clothing is the etiquette. Birds and beasts also know how to forage for food, only people have clothes, why is it not important? ”

Cai Yan was speechless. She looked at Huang Yueying again, and the more she looked at it, the more fresh she felt. Huang Yueying looks a little unkempt, which can be seen not only from the furnishings in her house, but also from her clothes. Huang Yueying was facing the sky, even her hair was simply tied in two buns, and she didn't see the maid around, it was estimated that she tied it casually. There is no dai on the eyebrows, no powder on the face, no vermilion on the lips, but there is a big black mass, which is thought to be ink. Dressed in a cloth shirt, the cuffs are also stained with a lot of ink.

She speaks like her clothes, simple and simple, but to the point, which is impossible to refute.

Seeing that Cai Yan was refuted by Huang Yueying, Feng Wan and Zhang Zifu squeezed each other's eyes, and they were relieved. Cai Yan may not have done it on purpose, but the arrogance she showed intentionally or unintentionally still made them very uncomfortable, and even offset her good impression of Cai Yong.

"Furthermore, men plough and weave, men plough the land to get food, and women weave cloth to get clothes, so what's wrong with us spending a dim sum machine to study the loom? The people of Xiangyi know that there are Yi Yin and Dong Xuan, that is because they have clothes, do the beasts know Yi Yin and Dong Xuan? My sister said that there is no name of the person who weaves brocade in the history books, I don't think it maybe, the ancestor invented sericulture, not more famous than Yiyin? ”

Cai Yan took a step back and bowed. "My sister is right, it's my ignorance, and I ask my sister to bear with me." She looked at Huang Yueying for a moment, pursed her lips and smiled. "My sister is worthy of her name, and sure enough, she can't change it."

Huang Yueying's face suddenly turned red, and she glared at Feng Wan and Zhang Zifu angrily, and her calmness just now was swept away. Feng Wan rolled his eyes and glanced at Zhang Zifu. Huang Yueying also looked at Zhang Zifu and got up to catch him, but Zhang Zifu hurriedly hid behind Feng Wan and begged for mercy again and again.

"Sister, I really didn't mean to."

A few people were laughing, and a carpenter ran over, stood at the middle door from a distance, and said loudly: "Madam, is Mrs. Cai here?" General Zhou was waiting for him outside. ”

Huang Yueying immediately pouted, squinted, grimaced, and dragged out her voice. "Oh-"

Feng Wan and Zhang Zifu laughed and leaned back together, and the flowers and branches trembled. Cai Yan was a little flustered, blushed, hurriedly went out, walked to the door, remembered something again, walked to the window, and pushed the window open a crack.

"When did my sister get married, and whose wife is it?"

Without waiting for Huang Yueying to speak, Zhang Zifu said with a smile: "You still need to ask, naturally it is the wife of the Sun family." Except for General Sun, who can afford to marry our Jin Bu for his sister. I just don't know if General Sun used to marry or rob. ”

Huang Yueying was annoyed and angry, jumped up, and shouted while scratching Zhang Zifu's armpit: "That's it, that's it, what can you do?" It doesn't matter if he marries or robs, I'm willing! If he doesn't rob me, I'm going to rob him. ”

Feng Wan's eyes flashed, and he couldn't hide his loss.
