Shang Xiucai didn't answer, after all, Cui is a woman, he is a man, and it is not good to talk about a woman.

Jiang Shi took out Gu Jinxiu's embroidery again, spread it out, and showed it to Shang Xiucai: "Xianggong, look at this picture." ”

Shang Xiucai looked at the embroidered picture, only to see a compass-sized double-layered arrowroot cloth, embroidered with more than a dozen figures, the people in the picture are either cutting trees to build a grass shed, or cooking on a fire, or looking for food and water in the mountains, each figure is lifelike, as if living on the cloth.

Shang Xiucai was a little surprised: "This picture is really vividly embroidered." ”

Although it is embroidered on cheap kudzu cloth, the color of the embroidery thread used is also very single, but it is gray, white, black and blue, but because of the exquisite embroidery, it does not make people feel that this embroidery is cheap, but adds a sense of simplicity and heaviness.

Jiang was also very satisfied with this embroidery, and said: "This is Xiaoyu's eldest sister embroidery, at the beginning, I only simply felt that the embroidery sister was just exquisite embroidery, but on the way back, I thought all the way, only to find that the embroidery of this embroidery is quite similar to Luo embroidery." ”

Luo embroidery is one of the four major embroidery, famous for being good at embroidering the character scene, Luo embroidery out of the character scenery, are very vivid, in the previous dynasty, it is positioned palace embroidery, is a tribute, only circulated in the palace and among the dignitaries and nobles, there are very few sales on the market, it can be said that it is difficult to find.

That is, when it arrived in Dachu, Luo embroidery spread among the people.

If this embroidery is really Luo embroidery, it is worth a lot.

Shang Xiucai frowned when he heard this, and after a while, he said to the Jiang family: "Maybe it's just similar, you don't have to take it to heart, let's just really deal with the Gu family." ”

Shang Xiucai didn't want to explore too much.

Jiang understood what Shang Xiucai meant, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know, I won't ask anything." ”

No matter what Cui's background is, she is just a peasant woman now, and their family gets along with the Gu family just to repay their kindness, and they don't want to dig out Cui's previous secrets.

Early the next morning, Lao Luo and Ah Jiu each drove a mule cart towards the Gu family in Dafeng Village.

Due to the heavy grinding of the stones, after a full hour, the two mule carts came to Dafeng Village and stopped in front of the courtyard of the Gu family.

Ah Jiu raised his voice and shouted: "Uncle Gu, we have transported the stone mill here, take a look, where do you want to put it?" ”

The third grandfather followed Gu Dagui and his wife and Gu Damu out of the stall, Gu Jinli didn't go today, so he followed Gu Dashan to greet him, came to the back of the mule cart, and saw that the mule cart was loaded with two stone mills, one large and one small, and they were all taken aback.

Gu Dashan said: "Didn't you say one?" Why did you send two? ”

Ah Jiu said with a smile: "There were originally two stone mills in the old house, one large and one small, which was convenient to use. Look, where is this stone mill going? ”

The courtyard of Gu Jinli's house was full of wooden boxes containing tofu, and there was no place to put two stone mills, Gu Jinli thought for a while and said, "Ship the big one to the Luo family, and leave the small one and put it outside the kitchen door." ”

The diameter of the large stone mill is more than half a meter, which is too big, and the diameter of the small stone mill is only more than a foot, which is very suitable for home use, so it was stayed.

"Okay, then let's move the small stone mill for you first." Ah Jiu called Lao Luo, and the two tied the small stone mill with a thick rope, carried it with two flat poles, carried it to the door of the Gu family's kitchen, and put it for the Gu family.

Gu Dashan had already gone to Luo's house to call Father Luo and Uncle Tian, who were grinding beans.

The Luo family father and son and the Tian family father and son, including Qin Sanlang, all came.

The stone mill was too heavy for five or six men to lift.

Lao Luo's driving skills are good, and he said to several men: "I'll drive the car into the yard first, and then move the stone mill out when I enter the yard." ”

"Huh." Several men responded, got out of the way, and let Lao Luo lead the mule cart into the courtyard of the Luo family.

The yards of several of their houses are very large, with front yards and back yards, both of which are about half an acre.

Lao Luo drove the mule cart into the front yard and stopped in the middle of the yard.

Father Luo and the others came over and began to move the stone mill.

The stone mill is divided into three parts: the chassis and the upper and lower grinding fans, Qin Saburo is only fourteen years old, but his strength is great, one person will move the half-meter-large grinding fan down the mule cart, bang, let the grinding fan stand on the ground, hold the grinding fan himself, and roll the grinding fan to the left side of the yard.

Luo's father was injured when he was young, but he didn't dare to do it like Qin Sanlang, but he and Luo Wu carried down another grinding fan, and the father and son rolled the grinding fan and put it on the left side of the courtyard.

The rest of the chassis was carried by Uncle Tian and Gu Dashan with a fist-sized wooden stick, and was carried to the left side of the courtyard, where a buried boulder was placed.

Immediately afterwards, the Luo family father and son put the two grinding fans on the chassis and installed them, and the matter of the stone mill was over.

After such a busy time, several families were sweating.

Ah Jiu saw that the stone mill had been moved, and said, "There are still things that haven't been moved, so let's run again." ”

Saying that, he turned his head and walked away with Lao Luo.

Gu Dashan chased after him and asked, "Aren't there only two stone mills?" Why is there anything else? ”

But Ah Jiu and Lao Luo had already run away in the mule cart and did not reply to his words.

Gu Dashan sighed and muttered, "I don't know what else to pull?" ”

Gu Dexing knew that the descendants of Shang Xiucai's family were coming, so he hurried over, but he didn't see the descendants of Shang Xiucai's family, and hurriedly asked Gu Dashan: "Uncle Dashan, where are the descendants of Shang Xiucai's family?" ”

Gu Dashan said: "Just left." ”

"Gone?" Gu Dexing was anxious: "Why did you leave so quickly?" Why don't you stop them? ”

Gu Jinli glanced at Gu Dexing and said, "This stone mill has been moved for a full two quarters of an hour, and you blame others for being late, it's ridiculous." ”

If this young master had come earlier, he would have seen someone.

Gu Dexing's face turned red, and he was embarrassed by Gu Jinli's words.

Gu Dashan had a good temper, and when he saw him like this, he said with a smile: "Brother Xing, don't worry, Ah Jiu, they will come back later." ”

When Gu Dexing heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really? ”

Gu Dashan nodded: "Really, I said that there is still something to be sent." ”

Gu Dexing was very happy, and did not go home again, but stayed at Luo's house and waited, and waited for more than an hour before waiting for Ah Jiu and Lao Luo.

Lao Luo and Ah Jiu brought a lot of things this time, including tables, chairs and benches, two stone stools, and two large iron plates.

As soon as Gu Jinli saw these two iron plates, he knew that this was something that Shang Xiucai specially ordered for their family.

Da Chu didn't use iron plates to make things, and they used them at home, but she didn't excuse herself, let alone say anything, she sent them all and then returned them, not to mention the trouble, and she was hypocritical.

When Gu Dashan saw these two iron plates, he knew that the iron plates were expensive and didn't want to accept them, but Ah Jiu's mouth was lisuo, and after a while, he persuaded Gu Dashan to accept the iron plates.

Gu Dexing saw Ah Jiu and them coming, so he hurriedly came to Gu's house from Luo's house and asked Ah Jiu: "Shang Xiucai read the article I wrote, did he say anything?" ”

Fleeing all the way, especially after the murder of the wicked, Gu Dexing was frightened, and after settling down, he didn't dare to go out for a while, and he was in a daze for so long, and finally found one thing he wanted to do, that is, to study and test his fame.

This is what he has been doing since he was a child, he will not do anything but this, he does not want to learn, he hates to chop wood, to grind beans, his hands are for writing, not for these menial jobs.
