Lin Baoru stuck her shell and said with a smile: "It's not counting, I accidentally read it in a book when I was sending firewood to the academy with my father before." Mother, look, I said that reading is beneficial, so in the future, whether it is picking ru and lotus or Xiaoshan, you must read and write, but you don't dare to be blind...... Otherwise, the way to make money in front of us, Xu will miss it because we can't understand it......"

Wang didn't think that her daughter avoided her own questions, she sighed, nodded and said, "What you said is that in the past, my mother always thought about what books we farmers read." But now I'm used to seeing too much, those decent shopkeepers and bookkeepers, which one doesn't know a single big word! ”

"Mother doesn't ask them to work harder, as long as they don't suffer and suffer poverty in the future." Wang sighed.

"Well, my mother is right to think so, we don't expect to really send a champion and raise two female champions, but these days, if our family can make a living, which one is obtained in the yellow earth of this acre and three points of land in the village?" Lin Baoru saw that the Wang family was no longer like before, and it would hurt for a long time to buy some pen, ink, paper and inkstone at home, and she understood that she really wanted to open it.

In fact, the sentence that knowledge changes fate is really not in vain. Not to mention what will happen to the future generations, just look at the present, as long as those who read books are not bad character and become street rats that everyone shouts and beats, which one will not be looked down upon?

Regardless of whether he can really find the golden house in the book, he will say that if he can write and draw, whether it is to help people write letters or take care of people's affairs, he can get more money than a guy who works as a coolie every day.

The so-called down-and-out scholars, poor and sour talents, in the final analysis, are only seen in the eyes of the rich and noble. For the common people, no matter how depressed and poor they are, they are decent people.

The two talked about talking, and they saw that a carpenter had already punched out a square box, and there was a circle chair that Wang specially said he wanted to marry.

At this time, she didn't care about the entanglement, and looked at the pieces of furniture with joy. Sure enough, a good thing is a good thing, and it doesn't look rough at all after polishing.

Xu is happy in his heart, and when he was cooking the aftermath meal, Wang also specially invited his daughter to fry an extra plate of meat and vegetables.

When the carpenter apprentices who came to the second room to do work heard this, they were naturally happy in their hearts, and they became even more energetic when they started to work. Especially those corners and corners, but the heart is very good, even the paint is also layer by layer to look good.

The second room had just entertained a few carpenter apprentices for dinner after dinner, and the carpenter master who left in a hurry with the drawings at noon came back. This time, he dragged a big guy here, which caused Caihe and Xiaoshan to look around in the yard for a long time.

"Sister-in-law of the Lin family, is Baoru's daughter here?"

The master carpenter asked a little excitedly when he saw Wang, who had left the house first when he heard the movement. When he was a little embarrassed about the Wang family a while ago, after all, no matter how he said that there was no man in charge of the family, he was not good at being a widow. The woman talked.

But right now, he doesn't have that much thought.

After that, he didn't do anything else, and when he went back to think about shaping the plunder, he even pressed the blade. It's just that he hadn't thought about this thing before, and he hadn't heard a master talk about this kind of wheat harvesting thing, so even if he made it, he didn't know the bottom in his heart.

What's the matter, I have to pass the eyes of that ingenious girl, if there is anything wrong, maybe I can change it while the sky is bright.

Lin Baoru rubbed the feet that had just been soaked, kicked them on and walked out of the house. As soon as she crossed the threshold, she saw what appeared to be a predator in the courtyard. This predator is a little smaller than the ones I saw when I traveled in my previous life, but it is generally not bad.

"Miss Baoru, come and take a look...... "The master carpenter beckoned to her, and said, "Your drawing is good, but if a woman uses it, I am afraid that it will not be able to use it, so I will make it a little smaller." In this way, whether it is a man or a mother-in-law, a piece of wheat can be harvested with some strength. ”

Lin Baoru looked around for the plunder, and stretched out his hand to test his strength. Then, she grasped the handle with her right hand and the rope with her left hand, and with just one force, the blade was directly harvested in an arc.

Although the size is a little smaller, it can be Rao, and this time it can harvest the distance of seven or eight ridges.

"That's good, if you meet someone with a lot of strength, you can be a little bigger in size." Lin Baoru saw that the thing was done, and she was naturally happy in her heart.

The master carpenter couldn't help but laugh happily when he saw that what he had made was recognized. But after a while, he hesitated and said, "Girl Baoru, you see that it is the busy time for farming right now, if you miss these days...... Then this thing is made, and I'm afraid it won't sell for a price......"

Although it can be sold next year, who doesn't want to see the money back sooner?

When Lin Baoru heard him say this, she understood what the master carpenter meant. She didn't twist modestly, she only smiled and said: "Uncle, this plunder is what I thought of in a flash of inspiration, whether it can be used or not, and I don't know what the effect will be." Why don't you wait a while, I'll try it with my brother and we'll talk later? ”

It's not that Lin Baoru is humble, it's really that she just drew it according to the words explained by the local tour guide in her memory, with the appearance of the predator she saw at that time. How can it be used, whether cutting wheat is really several times more time-saving and labor-saving than a sickle, to be honest, she is not sure.

When the master carpenter heard this, he felt more and more that this girl was down-to-earth and proper.

Xu was worried about this in his heart, and the master carpenter did not delay, and directly rubbed his hands and asked a little embarrassed: "Then I will follow you to the field for a while?" ”

As soon as these words came out, he felt that something was wrong. He is an outsider, what is the matter of following people orphans and widows to the fields when he is busy with farming? Even if you go to help, I'm afraid I can't say it.

After all, he is a carpenter with skills and brings his apprentices to the door to do the work. He is not a coolie who earns a living by helping people cut wheat!

The so-called oligo. There are many rights and wrongs in front of the woman's door, but if there is anything you can't think of, you are afraid that you will get into trouble with the Lin family in the future.

Thinking of this, he sneered a few times, "This thing is not safe. After a pause, he told Lin Baoru again, "Girl Baoru, you have a good heart, you must take a look at the field when you go to the field, and see if this plunder can cut the wheat clean, and it will not hurt people......

Lin Baoru smiled and nodded, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely be concerned about this matter." If it does, it can also bring me an additional input, right? ”

With this, the master carpenter was a little relieved.

At this time, the sun was already in the west, and the sky was not as hot as it was at noon. Therefore, without being greeted by others, Lin Mancang, who had been cleaning up in the front yard, came back and informed the Wang family that he was going to go to the ground.

Because there was something serious at home, and the wheat harvest was the previous day, his eldest sister was very tired, so he didn't plan to let the Wang family follow.

It's just that Lin Baoru was worried about the plunder, even if he didn't approve of it, he still insisted on following along.

Naturally, according to Lin Mancang's worries about her, whether it was a plunder or a rope, there was nothing for her to hold. It's as if letting Lin Baoru follow is just to see if the weird-looking predator can be used.

In fact, it is true, as soon as he arrived at the ground, Lin Mancang packed the plunder, pointed to the stone on the edge of the ground, frowned and said with pity: "Sister, you sit there and watch for a while." ”

He listened to what his mother said, and after returning at noon, the eldest sister's legs and feet were swollen.

Think about when the eldest sister was a child, although his family's life was not comfortable, but several sisters did not suffer this kind of crime.

Before, it was he who got into the horns of the bull and wanted to fork it, obviously the family was not able to be tormented by the old mansion, and he couldn't protect a few small ones as a brother. Now that he thinks about it and understands the matter, he naturally doesn't want to see his sister suffer that living crime again.

Besides, he only had some wheat left in Botian, and even if he harvested it himself, it would only be finished in a day or two. It's not much of a job......

Lin Baoru hesitated for a moment, and saw that his eldest brother looked iron-hearted, and finally did not follow him to the ground. To tell the truth, wherever her feet hit the ground now, her heart hurts.

Coupled with these thin fields, cultivated on the slopes of the mountain, she stepped on stones and climbed the slopes this way, and her physical strength was really unable to keep up.

Lin Mancang settled his sister-in-law, and began to follow the method that the sister-in-law had just explained, bending down to harvest an inch and a half of wheat stalks.

Originally, he didn't believe that this belt could harvest wheat with ropes and handles, so when he came, he carried a sickle on his back. Even, on the way to the field just now, he kept thinking about how to comfort his sister if this thing couldn't be used.

Unexpectedly, with this wave of his eyes, all the seven or eight rows of wheat in front of his eyes turned into an arc into the fan wheat.

He looked at the empty wheat field in astonishment, and then at the wheat that he was holding in his hand, which had been gathered in a lot, and he was surprised for a long time before he came back to his senses.

So he repeated the action he had just done and took a few more handfuls, hey, it was really much better than a scythe.

In this way, the two acres of thin fields that should have been harvested by the family a whole day ago have now been collected by him in half of it in just a while. Even, in the middle, he could even stop to drink water and rest.

Just when he stopped tying up the wheat, not only Lin Baoru came over, but even a few neighbors came over to see it.

"Manho, where did you get this thing? It's so easy to use......" Uncle Song from the same village touched his chin, looked up and down at the predator at Lin Mancang's feet, and exclaimed.

The old uncle of the Lin family on the side also chimed in, "I see that the people who are hoarding this are much less troublesome than our sickles." At that time, I also told your uncle that your family came late, and I was afraid that I would have to delay the harvest time, but now it seems that you are called ...... What is it called not missing work? ”
