131 We have made money
"After finishing the work in hand, we will take a break, and let's free up the pot to cook something else."
That is, Li Hua is such a loser, the big iron pot that makes food is replaced by a guy who cooks dyes.
Sanniu's temperament is now more and more open, and he raised his voice and asked, "Master Li, did you go to the city and buy other expensive things?" ”
"Well, when I met someone who sold dyes, I bought a few packs, thinking about making the color of the flower cloth more durable for everyone."
Sanniu exclaimed, "Master Li, those fabrics are already beautiful enough, you still have to calculate the durability for us, and you really don't need to ...... if you don't use them."
"That's right, Master Li, you're so good, let's dream and smile when we can have a new piece of fabric pressed under the pillow for the New Year......"
Everyone is talking about being too satisfied, and they don't need to bother with dye.
Li Hua's ears exploded a little, and he made a move without thinking about it, and he scared himself.
The chin is slightly lowered on the side of the face, one hand is stretched out, and the fingers are slightly pressed down......
I had to quickly put away the action and pretend that I had never done it, and I found that the pile of noisy kind words magically stopped, and the reason for the stop was this action.
Save effort and mouth, why not?
Is it that he is also like that poisonous man at the moment...... Poison?
Lizheng's daughter-in-law completed the task first, and came over to test dyeing cloth with Li Hua, "This color is really black, and the bowl is beautiful and blue." ”
After soaking the rags in a small bowl, the effect is indeed good, but I don't know whether the strength of the fading after drying is great, and most importantly, what is the virtue when entering the water again.
There is a fire kang in the house, the rag head dries quickly, the color becomes lighter, continue to rub in the water, there is a slight fading, continue to dry and continue to scrub......
Li Hua was very involved in doing this, and the ancestral hall was very lively, and those who came to pay the family to report and settle the accounts left in turn, and then quieted down.
Everyone who left was thinking about the fabrics, and I heard that Master Li was experimenting with bleaching and dyeing them again to make the fabrics look better and more durable......
The four children came to see Li Hua's progress after finishing their business, and rushed to speak to express which color they liked the most, Li Li was a little regretful, because she wanted a big red coat the most, red like fire, but there was no one in the rags.
Li Hua's starting point today was to go low-key, and he didn't think about dyeing the fabric so conspicuously.
But such a sensible sister...... Li Hua directly turned around and arranged for Liu, "There is still undyed cotton cloth left at home, right?" Take them all. ”
Lizheng's daughter-in-law asked in surprise, "Do we still have red dye?" ”
Li Hua nodded heavily, "Yes, I was worried that it was too bright and everyone didn't like it." ”
"Smack," Lizheng's daughter-in-law patted Li Hua on the shoulder excitedly, "Don't say that the little girls like bright ones, we old women like it too, and if you don't wear it, it's also eye-catching." ”
After finishing speaking, he didn't feel like words, so he reached out and rubbed Li Hua's shoulder twice.
As a martial arts heir with a strong body and a thick skeleton, Li Hua was very rational before, and only chose dark and multi-colored high-grade gray to wear on his body, and he didn't consider the big red equipment when choosing pajamas.
But it turns out that red is so popular in the eyes of Daqi locals?
"Auntie, are you sure you can only wear red when you are married?"
Li Zheng's daughter-in-law frowned, "Of course not!" When you get married, you pay attention to wearing red, usually the little girls also wear it casually, but there is no such condition in the past, an old dress is worn by a small one, and the male and female babies can wear it, and you can't wear it for two generations if you make a red one. ”
Liu Lizheng, who also rubbed a little sleep on the kang, came out of the house, and his daughter-in-law's words caused him a little long-term memory: "The first time I saw your aunt at that time, she was wearing a big red jacket, which was good-looking, with a thin waist and a ...... face."
Lizheng's daughter-in-law smashed the flower cloth in her hand into Liu Lizheng's mouth with a "whoop", and said anxiously, "Dacheng Ercheng, quickly take your father to the house, I am thinking about the vat of wine sent by Li Hua all day long, and I am not doing it properly after drinking!" ”
Everyone laughed, and Li Hua was also relieved.
Knowing that you have a big red cloth on this pimple, you dare to toss it even more.
"Auntie, do you have a native cloth at home? Dye it red together. ”
He also beckoned to the others in the workshop, "If you want to dye cloth, please send it!" ”
Those who wanted to dye cloth but didn't have cloth began to be busy collecting long bamboo poles and long sticks to set up shelves in the courtyard, and they were all excited, after all, dyeing cloth was the first time.
Liu ran back with Li Li, the little girl was sweating on the tip of her nose, not only brought the remaining fabric, but also a few handkerchiefs and pillowcases that had been cut for her......
"Sister, it's all clean, I want to dye it red!"
How much do you really love red?
With all the pots and pans shelves ready, start with the bright red.
Before those handkerchiefs were thrown into the pot, Li Hua had the idea to wrap a few cloth lumps with a thin rope at will.
The first pot of boiling dye juice attracted everyone's attention, and the inside and outside of the ancestral hall were crowded with people again, and the sky was dark, and they were so tired from running around during the day, they couldn't see anything outside when they were crowded, and they were still excited.
"As soon as I heard that I could help dye the big red, I sent the cloth, and then I thought about it, dyed it red for the kid to wear, and it didn't look good!"
There was also a remorseful voice sandwiched inside.
Indeed, who has ever seen a peasant boy in a big red coat working in a field? is not a rich young master, he is clean, white, white and tender all day long, and the brighter he wears, the more heroic he looks.
"Wear it for your girl, your three girls, the whole big red one is worn in turns, it's not a blind thing."
Someone next to him accosted, and the two girls behind him grabbed their sister's placket hard, and the sister held a two-year-old little brother in her hand, biting her lip, the joy just now was gone.
The mother of the girl was unconscious, immersed in regret for her impulsive behavior just now, slapped her thigh, and decided, "Hey, what color are you wearing for money-losing goods?" The cloth went into the pot, and I couldn't get it back, so I left it for my daughter-in-law to enter the door as a dowry. ”
"Haha, don't put this cloth away, your son is still young."
Most of the people who heard it laughed and laughed, and suddenly, the sister who was holding her younger brother spoke up, and her voice was as sharp as a little beast that had just been released, "We are not losing money!" We've made money! ”
The two younger sisters behind him shook their bodies, and then cried.
The dried tofu in the workshop is only wholesaled to the girls in the village, and the girls who walk the streets with bamboo baskets every day make money.
"This dead child, pure nonsense...... "The one who is used to the mother is used to twisting the elder sister's arm behind him.
