CHAPTER XXXI

Many people in the family think that Shen Yuqi is not presentable, but Shen Yuqi's father and mother have been persuaded by her, and anything others say will only seem nosy. Although they are all from the third uncle's house, there is really only one family in the village like them that has no longer been separated since the third uncle's ancestor, and they can't refer to the practices of other families.

The third uncle also discovered that he could tell his sons to work hard, and his sons could also restrain their grandchildren not to quarrel, but it would be too difficult for the next generation to restrain them. In fact, their family's hearts have been a little scattered since a long time ago, but they don't show it when they don't usually touch their interests.

Now everyone in Shen Yuqi's small house thinks that Shen Yuqi is going to marry into the Lu family as a young grandmother, so no one thinks it's bad.

The third uncle didn't bother to care about them anymore, not only didn't he care, but he also directly divided the family, and then went to apologize to Shen Junchuan and his wife in person with the support of his eldest grandson.

"I'm old, I can't manage a lot of things now, and I almost caused you trouble before, I'm sorry."

Shen Junchuan hurriedly said: "The third uncle ancestor is serious, there are many people in the family, and it is normal for a few people to be disobedient. Anyway, it's okay in the end. ”

The third uncle sighed and said: "No matter, in the past, I thought about it, and I always felt that it was good for the family to be neatly together, but I never thought that they were not happy." Now it's simply divided, and it's good to be quiet in the future. If they do anything in the future, you don't have to let them go in front of me. Although I have helped you, it is only a small favor, and it is not worth making you suffer compensation. What's more, you took our family's great-granddaughter and great-granddaughter-in-law to make money early in the morning, and you have already paid it off. ”

"Third Uncle Ancestor, don't worry, I have measure."

Shen Junchuan has never been a person who is willing to suffer, and he has always turned a blind eye to Shen Yuqi before because Lin Zhiyun has already taken countermeasures, and he knows in his heart that Shen Yuqi can't do anything at all.

Shen Yuqi was not wrong when she saw that some of them had mixed silk into cotton wool, Lin Zhiyun did let people mix silk into cotton wool, but it was not the previous Yunchuan cloth, but a new cloth.

Some of the jacquard cloth woven by Lin Zhiyun was given a relatively high price by the grocery stores in Fucheng, but Lin Zhiyun was a little reluctant to go, so he wanted to make the most expensive jacquard cloth softer and smoother, and the color was brighter and better-looking, so that it was worth the money.

Lin Zhiyun feels that if the business is to continue for a long time, it must need to be continuously improved. The cloth she had woven before could have been better, so she began to study other methods.

Lin Zhiyun knew in his heart that the cloth mixed with silk was actually not easy to sell, because the price was embarrassing. But since her cloth has reached that price, why not make it better with better materials?

No matter how well cotton cloth is made, it is not as bright as silk, but it is hopeful to be mixed with silk and other things. When Shen Yuqi wanted to steal her recipe, she happened to be studying this, so she planned it.

Lin Zhiyun didn't feel anything originally, but seeing the third uncle like this, she didn't feel very comfortable in her heart.

Shen Junchuan hugged her shoulders and said, "We did this right, and the third uncle is not wrong, it's just that Shen Yuqi has bad intentions and has no sense of proportion." I don't think we need to deliberately retaliate against the lesson, marrying into the Lu family is enough for her. ”

"Is the Lu family so bad? I think Lin Luoxing is also going to marry the Lu family, and he has always been polite over there. ”

Although Lin Zhiyun had heard of the chaos of the Lu family and felt that it was not a good place to go, he did not know much about the situation of the Lu family. She always felt that although the Lu family was chaotic, and the upper beam was not right and the lower beam was crooked, but with such a large group of sons, there could always be a few good ones, right?

Listening to the meaning of Shen Yuqi's family, although Nalu Shiyi is younger, he is very responsible. After losing more than 200 taels of silver, not only did he not let Shen Yuqi lose money, but he also married Shen Yuqi. If all this is true, it means that the eleventh young master of the Lu family is sincere to Shen Yuqi and does not need to worry.

Shen Junchuan said: "The eleventh lang of the Lu family is not a climate, but he has a good relationship with Lu Qilang, and he will obey Lu Qilang." Lu Qilang is vicious, and his ideas are worse than the other, Shen Yuqi is self-defeating, and she will suffer in the future. If I'm not mistaken, the Lu family wants to marry Shen Yuqi as a young grandmother, is it all said by Shen Yuqi's family? Can the people of the Lu family come over and hire them in a serious way? ”

Lin Zhiyun shook his head: "I heard that because of Shen Yuqi's relationship, Lu Shiyi lost more than two hundred taels of silver, so he regarded the more than two hundred taels of silver as a bride price." ”

"Isn't it? Can the Lu family really lack the two hundred taels of silver? This is not an appointment, and the marriage letter has not been seen by the Shen family, I think there must be something wrong with this matter. But even if she marries and becomes a wife, it is useless, the men of the Lu family have always only used their wives as decorations. ”

Shen Junchuan felt that Shen Yuqi's road was impossible to get through, and the young masters of the Lu family generally looked for wives from the landlord's family or ordinary merchants. These people are generally not as rich as the Lu family, but they have merit in some aspects and can cooperate with the Lu family. For example, Lin Luoxing, although she has no good background, she has a brother-in-law like Xu Bowen, if Xu Bowen can enter the court as an official in the future, then the Lu family will also have one more backer.

And Shen Yuqi has nothing, the Lu family doesn't look down on her at all, whether they marry her as a wife or deceive her as a concubine, it's just to take her home and torture her. Shen Yuqi can't see clearly now, but she will feel good in the future.

"Okay, let's not talk about her." Shen Junchuan didn't have much interest in Shen Yuqi, "I heard that you've been researching a new recipe recently, but what have you researched?" Do you want me to help? ”

Shen Junchuan really helped in this regard, Lin Zhiyun was always amazed by his talent, and felt more and more that it was probably providential that he could marry Shen Junchuan. She can weave and embroider herself, and she is extremely talented, and she learns faster than her mother. But all she can do is come up with more patterns, and she has been confined to the foundation that her predecessors have laid for them. If it weren't for the fact that Shen Junchuan had been helping her improve the loom and spinning machine, she would not have thought of studying the weaving recipe by herself.

"The jacquard cloth is almost there, and I asked the traveling merchant to take it to Fucheng for trial sale, and the response is better than before. I think that in the future, there will be no limit to the number of jacquard cloths, and it will be sold with twenty or thirty more horses. Lin Zhiyun smiled, "I recently wanted to try to improve linen. ”

"Sack?"

"Yes, although the price of the cotton cloth we sell is not high, they have been able to sell a lot of it when they go to the running business recently. But recently, it has been sold less and less, because for most rural people, it is enough to buy that kind of cotton cloth once or twice a year, and most of them usually use linen cloth, otherwise the family cannot afford it. Lin Zhiyun said seriously, "When I used to be in the Lin family, I basically wore linen, which was rough and hard. Not only are the clothes not good enough, but they are also uncomfortable to wear. ”

Shen Junchuan nodded, he had always worn linen cloth in the past, and he knew that after Lin Zhiyun got married, he changed all the burlap clothes for him to muslin clothes. It had probably been so long since he had worn it, and he had almost forgotten what it was like to wear burlap.

"How's that going?"

In Du Fuzi's plan, if Shen Junchuan fights, he can go from a child to a showman in one breath next year, and if he fights again, there is also hope for a lift. Of course, Du Fuzi didn't dare to think about it. After all, many people are extremely poor and still show off their talents.

But Du Fuzi didn't dare to think about it, Shen Junchuan dared to think about it, so he was also very busy in the academy recently, and he hadn't paid attention to what Lin Zhiyun was doing at home for a long time. It's rare to rest, and he wants to ask all at once. He didn't want the couple to have any estrangement, and the best way to avoid it was to have no secrets.

Therefore, as long as he was free, Shen Junchuan would hug Lin Zhiyun and talk, and exchange the things that the two of them had encountered during this time.

Lin Zhiyun also likes this model.

"Look at this, I've changed this four or five times, it's much better than the previous sackcloth, but I think it should be better, but I don't have a clue for a while."

Lin Zhiyun took the linen cloth she had recently knitted, and took out a recipe about linen to show Shen Junchuan. Shen Junchuan didn't know enough about these things before, but because of Lin Zhiyun's relationship, he watched a lot on the side, and slowly gained a certain understanding.

"This is much softer and more delicate than ordinary linen, and the cost and effort are not much, right?" Shen Junchuan asked.

"Naturally, it's not big, I also want to sell linen to ordinary people in the countryside, if the cost is too high, then how can they afford it? It's not as good as cotton. ”

"That's fine, I'll take a look at it when I have time. Another day, you can also let me watch from the side while you weave linen, and I will see if there is room for improvement in the loom and spinning machine, and maybe we can get a special one for weaving linen. ”

Shen Junchuan thinks that different tools should be used to make different things. It is a pity that Carpenter Zhang's skills are limited, and his talent in this area is not as high as he thinks, otherwise he would have been able to develop a machine suitable for weaving linen, cotton and silk at the same time. Now that's all I have to do with it.

Although Lin Zhiyun felt that Shen Junchuan had done a good job, Shen Junchuan felt that he had not done enough, and he still made Lin Zhiyun tired, and he should work harder.

But Lin Zhiyun was also worried that he would be tired.

"I see you've been doing a lot of homework lately, so don't worry about these things, right?"

Shen Junchuan smiled: "It's nothing, I know you're not in a hurry, so I won't be in a hurry about this matter." I think your linen cloth is almost ready to sell, and I'll change it when I think of something better later. Recently, the master is going to take us out on a study tour, in a place in the south of the Yangtze River, and I heard that silk is abundant there, so I will go over and help you take a look at it then. ”

Lin Zhiyun was stunned, she had been yearning for Jiangnan for a long time, but she didn't expect Shen Junchuan to go first. It's just that if you study Jiangnan, it's too far, and she and Shen Junchuan haven't been separated since they got married.
