Chapter Twenty-Seven: If You Can't Read It, You'll Be Right!
Chapter 27 You can't read it!
The eldest sister tailored, so she first went to get the various colors of handkerchiefs that her father wanted, and first asked the girls to take another white cloth and cut some handkerchiefs out for later use. Then I asked the two of them to get a few bowls for themselves, and then when they were about to mix the colors, a question suddenly came to mind.
Yesterday, I redeemed the color by myself, and I cashed it casually. I thought I wouldn't want to use it, but now if my father uses it, he may not be able to redeem the same color in proportion. There is definitely a difference in the shade. Then you should make a record yourself. Write down the ratio of each color mix together.
After thinking about it, he turned his head to look at the things in the room to see what could be used, but when he looked at it, he couldn't see a suitable vessel for the capacity standard. This is very important, this amount cannot be measured, there must be an actual data left. If you really want to do it, then the first step is to get it right.
But where did you find such a container in a short period of time? After thinking for a while, he called Lilac and said:
"Lilac, go to the kitchen and get me a bigger cup. Find a smaller cup. ”
Lilac hurried to find two cups, one large and one small, and it looked like the smaller one was exactly half the bigger. Shang Ruonan tried to take the small one and fill two cups of water into the big one, which was just right, it happened to be a full large cup. That's easy to remember.
Then he took a piece of paper and said:
"Look, I'll do it, you can help me remember it."
Lilac blushed suddenly, smiled awkwardly and said:
"Miss, I can't write!"
Shang Ruonan was stunned for a moment, and then thought that Lilac is a lower-class person in this society, a girl, and it is normal that she can't read and write.
Then he said:
"Forget it, I'll take note. You take two straps and tie my sleeves a little, so I can't do anything and I'll get this clothes dirty." ”
It can be done. Lilac immediately went and fetched two ribbons. Then he tied up his sleeves according to Shang Ruonan's request, and then Shang Ruonan began to match it. While matching colors, she made a record on the paper, completely immersed in her own world, and didn't notice that the sisters and sisters over there had stopped, and watched her busy by herself.
One moment he was holding a cup of paint, another he was holding water, and then he was writing and drawing there with a pen, and then he was letting the cloves and peonies stir up the mixed things. After stirring it up, she went to check again to see if there was anything to change. Then put a cut handkerchief in it and soak it.
The young lady follows the young lady, and the girl follows the girl. The sixth sister likes to follow Ruolan, and her girls Wenzhu and Peach Blossom are also busy with Lilac. The two of them helped to dry the handkerchief. Or help Shang Ruonan hand over the paper, and several people will be busy in an orderly manner.
This Shang Ruonan also put his heart into it, and he brought out eight colors with one tune. Although it can be adjusted, think about it, let's use it first. I pressed each colored bowl on the paper on which the recipe was written, and then made a mark on it, because the cloths that were hung up were arranged in this order. It looks good, too.
Then Shang Ruolan called Lilac and said:
"You embroider this mark with a needle to the corresponding handkerchief. Embroider in a corner on it. ”
Shang Ruolan used eight capital letters instead of marks, others don't recognize it, just recognize it yourself. Once again, remind the girls that they can't separate the bowl they have placed from the paper, otherwise they won't be able to find the corresponding paper.
Then take the extra handkerchief, fold it as you like, or tie it, and then dip it into the mixed paint.
Some are put down directly, some are asked to carry a part of the girl, so that the other part is soaked in a circle, and some keep dipping and lifting up! After a while, the eight handkerchiefs were hung up again. He also embroidered the cloves, and sewed up one corner of two handkerchiefs of the same color. That way you can't go wrong.
Seeing Shang Ruonan doing things in such an orderly manner, the eldest sister and the second sister were a little confused, is this still Ruonan? Isn't a man a shy man who doesn't talk and doesn't do anything?
Several people didn't discuss making clothes on the side, and just watched Shang Ruonan busy in the yard.
After looking at it for a while, Panlan couldn't help it, those colors were too attractive, so she was the first to rush over and look at it:
"Ruonan, Xiaosi, you are too good-looking. No, no, no. I had to make eight sets of clothes. I want all eight colors. Wrong. This color seems to be a little different from yesterday's color, that's nine colors. Wow! ”
A series of admiration made Shang Ruonan laugh and said:
"It's all right, except for going to that meeting this time, we can do everything else."
The other sisters also looked at all eight colors, and in addition to admiration, they only admired it. Suddenly, the sisters were a little hesitant, as if they were all like Panlan, wanting to wear every color of cloth on their bodies.
It's every girl's nature to love beauty! Seeing that the sisters liked it, Shang Ruonan smiled sincerely. This time, several sisters saw her smiling face, although the sky is not very good now, and Shang Ruonan is standing under the eaves, but she smiled, it seems that there is light, there is sunshine!
All the sisters were stunned for a moment, it turned out that Xiaosi was so beautiful!
Shang Ruonan didn't know how the sisters felt, so he went straight to put away the paper on which the recipe was written, because the same mark was painted on each bowl with paint. Then she called the girl, and put eight bowls in baskets. and sixteen handkerchiefs. I'm going to send it to my dad to show him.
Second Sister Shang has always been very strict with things to write and draw, but as soon as she saw Shang Ruonan's pile of recorded papers, she stepped forward to take a look, and then frowned:
"What are you writing here?"
Then look left and right, by the way, the two girls of the fourth sister are illiterate, and the fourth sister does not know many words. Sighing:
"If you want to remember anything in the future, tell me, or ask Mo Xiang to memorize it."
Mo Xiang and Shuxiang are the personal girls of Second Sister Shang, these two girls follow who to learn from whom, and naturally follow Second Sister Shang to learn a bookish girl. Don't say much, at least you can write and draw.
Shang Ruonan pulled the corners of his mouth and raised his eyebrows, looked at the second sister and said:
"You don't understand?"
"How can you understand this, one moment round, one moment pointy, the words are not words, and the pictures are not pictures. Who can read it? ”
Shang Ruonan smiled and said:
"If you don't understand, you'll be right!"
After a pause, he said:
"It's a recipe, anyone can understand it, so what's the secret?"
