Chapter 431
It stands to reason that the Ye family will be able to return to the capital from Shu in mid-June, but this year, the rain in Dayu has been significantly more since the beginning of spring, and floods have occurred frequently after summer, and the water surface of the river between Shu and the capital has risen to an unprecedented height.
Although when the Ye family returned to Shu, they specially invited the dart bureau to escort them, Lin Xiuwu and Mao Yanqiu also arranged excellent water-based escorts respectively, and even the Ye family's boat back to Shu was specially arranged by the Zhennan Hou Mansion, I believe that there will be no problems in terms of personal safety.
But looking at the pouring rain outside, Lin Wan still showed a rare anxiety.
First, they are worried that the rain will block the way back to Beijing and delay the three brothers of the Ye family from returning to Beijing to officially join the company.
Second, I am worried that there will be problems on the orchard side.
Even if there is no problem with the drainage of the orchard, the loss of grapes that are about to ripen and harvest in the orchard will not be too small.
Lin Wan had begged Cai many times to go to the orchard to see it in person, but she didn't get Cai's nod.
There are two reasons why Cai didn't nod.
The first is to worry about Lin Wan's personal safety.
Even though the government has rebuilt the road to the southern suburbs in the past two years due to the development of the Nanshan hot springs, no matter how much the official road is repaired, it cannot be compared with the stone road in the city.
After days of wind and rain, even the stone roads in the city are a little difficult to drive, let alone run outside the city.
Secondly, when Lin Wenqing was still raining a few days earlier, he went to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs.
With Lin Wenqing's character, if there is really a problem that cannot be solved, even if it is a knife in the world, he will definitely send a letter to the city.
The government has not received Lin Wenqing's letter in the past two days, which shows that there are no unsolvable problems in the orchard and winery.
But Lin Wan was still very uneasy in her heart, and she always felt that if she didn't rush to Zhuangzi to see what bad things would happen.
On this day, seeing that the rain was slowing down a little, he took the winter moon that had just been promoted to the big girl a few days ago to Ci'an Garden.
Dongxue will be married in two months, and Lin Wan specially reduced the work of Dongxue's waiting, so that she can embroider the wedding dress with peace of mind.
Lin Wan asked Cai's to say goodbye, then sat down next to Cai's and took out the forehead that she had driven out in the past two days.
"Why did you wipe my forehead again?" Let Lin Wan replace herself with a new forehead, Cai's heart is so beautiful, but her mouth nagged and said: "Although my grandmother has made up her mind to keep you for a few more years, the embroidery you need to get married can be embroidered slowly, and people like us don't need to embroider all by yourself, but the meaning of embroidering things by yourself is always different from embroidering by yourself." Don't always make needlework for your grandmother in the future, so that you can embroider your own things.
Lin Wan smiled: "It's just a wipe, it won't take much time for Wanwan." Grandmother just rest assured, those embroideries used by the family are embroidered Wanwan! ”
Cai's reached out and touched the new forehead wipe on his head, and looked at the mirror that Mama Qiao specially brought over, only to feel that it was all satisfied, and couldn't help but say happily: "Wanwan's hands are skillful, and the forehead wipes made are comfortable to wear!" ”
Mama Qiao smiled and continued: "This forehead layer is made of Western cotton?" This cotton face is soft and sweat-wicking without irritating the skin. The three girls are ingenious? The hand is also skillful. The old lady wears herself comfortably! ”
Cai Shi stretched out his hand and touched the forehead on his head and said, "Is it the Western cloth that the third child just took back to the house a few days ago?" I remember that each room was only divided into one zhang. There are so many people in the second room, how much can Roche give Wanwan? Why don't you make yourself a belly pocket? But use it to wipe my forehead! ”
If it was before? There was nothing wrong with Cai's words, but this time Luo gave all the muslin to Lin Wan.
Even if Lin Wan and Luo are still not close? But what should be is what it is, so he smiled and said: "Mother gave Wanwan all the cloth in the second room!" ”
Cai listened to Lin Wan's words? Some raised their eyebrows in disbelief: "Really? So generous this time? ”
Then he asked a little uneasy: "All the cloth in the second room was given to you?" Will your second sister-in-law have an opinion? ”
Wanwan shook her head and laughed: "Look at grandmother, just say it!" The second sister-in-law has always been virtuous, so she won't have an opinion! But after Wanwan got the cloth, she first cut two feet for her second sister-in-law! ”
Cai nodded secretly, with Lin Wan's temperament, he naturally wouldn't monopolize it? But Cai's heart was still a little worried.
Two feet is exactly one-fifth of a foot.
There are five children in the second room? Lin Wan's distribution seems fair, but there are still hidden dangers.
After all, An Huijuan also has a son, Xiao An'an, and only giving her two feet is naturally less.
However, Lin Wan's next words completely calmed Cai's heart: "Wanwan originally wanted to give the second sister-in-law more cuts, but the second sister-in-law preemptively showed her attitude, that is, she didn't want it!" I had to cut the cloth for my unborn niece? The second sister-in-law didn't shirk it! ”
In March, An Huijuan found out that she was pregnant again, and now it's almost five months? The doctor is located in this fetus, and there are seventy or eighty percent likely to be a girl.
Now the Cai family has four great-grandchildren, three big houses and one two-room? is the lack of great-granddaughters, and she is naturally full of expectations for the baby in An Huijuan's belly.
After listening to Lin Wan's words, he was naturally full of joy.
"Where's the rest of the fabric?" Although it is clear that Lin Wan's temperament will not monopolize the rest of the fabric? Cai still wanted to know the result of Lin Wan's disposal of the remaining eight-foot cloth.
"Too little fabric? The two-foot cloth for the second sister-in-law? also cut one and a half feet for the sixth sister, enough for the sixth sister to make two belly pockets. The rest cut a middle coat for Yuan'er and An An. In addition to wiping her grandmother's forehead, the rest also made two pairs of socks for her father and mother, as well as the second brother and the fourth brother. Lin Wan couldn't help laughing as she spoke.
After returning to Zhennan Hou Mansion, she really didn't have such a careful calculation as this time!
It's no wonder that the industry of this era is too backward, and the textile industry of Dayu Country is so backward that Lin Wan is a little speechless, but she is a human being, not a god, and she understands planting but does not understand textile at all.
There is still a big gap between the muslin cloth from the West and the cotton cloth obtained in the previous life, but it has almost become a "rare treasure" here, so it is natural to be careful to come.
Lin Wan's words made Cai's voice both relieved and sad, so she asked Mama Qiao to go to her treasury to find out the piece of muslin that her children and grandchildren had especially honored her and Lin Xiuwu and handed it to Lin Wan.
Lin Wan shook her head and shook her hand in a panic, she didn't dare to take this cloth!
"Let you take it, and you will take it." Cai glanced at Lin Wan and said domineeringly: "Whoever dares to say anything, let her just come to me!" ”
Lin Wan sighed, and had to let Dongyue hand over the fabric in Mama Qiao's hand, but she already had an idea in her heart.
This piece of cloth is two zhang long, just enough to make two middle clothes for Cai and Lin Xiuwu, after all, it can't make Cai's embarrassed, and it doesn't make people make irresponsible remarks about themselves.
At this time, the atmosphere in Ci'an Yuan was just right, and although the sky outside was still cloudy, the rain had stopped, so Lin Wan once again proposed to the Cai family to go to Zhuangzi in the southern suburbs to have a look.
