Chapter 105: A windmill for blowing grain
Bai Xiyan didn't hold back, and reached out and pinched her white chubby little face, which made the little sister laugh.
Bai Zixuan's movements did not stop, and he found that the eldest sister liked to listen to these things, and he took the trouble to continue.
"Uncle Seven said that no one in Beijing really helped him, and they all wanted to see him laugh behind his back, and the only imperial grandmother and imperial grandfather who could help him were also old, and he didn't want the imperial grandmother and imperial grandfather to worry, so he didn't tell them about these things."
If that's the case, this baby is too pitiful.
The greater the official power, the more dirty things will be, and that kind of place can really be said to think clearly about every word you say, and if you are not careful, you can lose your head, or say that you can be caught by someone and whatever handle you are wrong, and you can be charged with whatever crime you want.
"Well, that's too miserable."
"What the eldest sister said is right, I also think that Uncle Seven is so miserable, we still have so many people who love us at home, but Uncle Seven is alone alone, it's so pitiful."
Bai Zixin agreed, and she also felt that Uncle Seven was miserable.
Bai Xiyan saw the two little children frowning, and couldn't help laughing, "You two little boys, you two little boys, your seventh uncle can handle these things, he has been the emperor for so many years, you really think he is incompetent, if he doesn't have that ability, he can't sit in that position." ”
"The eldest sister is right, the seventh uncle will definitely have a way." Bai Zixuan said with a smile.
In the next two days, if it weren't for the little brother and little sister by her side, she would have felt like she was going crazy.
Fortunately, two days were not fast, slow or slow, and finally passed.
And all the millet at home has been taken off, and now it is all dried in the yard, and the yards on both sides are full of sun.
Father Bai and the other men went to the field to harvest other crops, only Bai Zhou's family was in the yard, taking advantage of the wind, holding the white father's bamboo basket and standing on the side, facing the wind and slowly letting the grains fall, letting the wind blow away the grass clippings and other impurities in the rice.
Again and again, it is easy to say, but Bai Xiyan looked at it for a while, but found that Bai Zhou's family had only opened a little bit, although this was also a solution, but it was too much effort.
It reminded her of a kind of windmill she had seen in the village before, which was made of wooden planks without any power and then completely manual.
As long as a person stands in front of the windmill and shakes the handle, a frame can be made on the windmill, which can hold a certain amount of grain, and then put a certain amount of grain on it, as long as the handle is shaken, there will be wind in the windmill, which will blow away the impurities such as grass clippings and grains, leaving some useful and strong grain.
But she only remembers what this kind of windmill looks like and how to do it, she doesn't know at all, but she believes that as long as she can draw it, her father will definitely be able to do it, and don't forget that her father is a good hand at making these things, no matter how difficult things are, when they reach her father's hands, he can make them.
Like the rattan chairs, rocking chairs, etc., she just told her father about it and drew some pictures, and even so, her father made all of them, and even did it better than what she said.
"Xi'er, what are you standing there in a daze? It's sunny outside, so get inside quickly. ”
Bai Zhoushi finally found the person who was standing not far from her, watching the movements of her hands in a daze, and hurriedly called, this girl is so uneasy, she just ran out to bask in the sun, and she didn't know what to pay attention to.
Bai Xiyan is embarrassed, she is not a fragile doll, how can she be so fragile, and it is better to bask in the sun to eliminate poison, but she will not tell Bai Zhou's about this, otherwise Bai Zhou's will say that she is crazy, what kind of disinfection, and she will not understand.
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
Pretending to be curious and looking at her, although there were rice growers at home in the past, there were not so many now, it was all done by Bai's father alone, and Bai Zhou's family had never done it, so the original owner Bai Xiyan didn't understand it even more.
"Mother, taking advantage of the wind now, wants to clean up these grass clippings, you go to the side, otherwise it will be uncomfortable to be blown into your eyes." 180
"Mother, I'm paying attention, it's okay." Bai Xiyan took two steps back and continued to stare at the movements of Bai Zhou's hand.
"Mother, do you say that you are using these winds to blow away those grass clippings? But how long are you going to get it? ”
These two large courtyards add up to almost 200 square meters, and they are full of sun, so many blows until what year and month.
Bai Xiyan is really worried, when he didn't plant rice, he was worried that the growth was not good, and after it grew, he was worried that the harvest was not good, the harvest was too good, and he was worried that he couldn't be busy.
It's just hard, it's hard anyway.
But Bai Zhou's thoughts are completely different from her, over the years, she has been poor and afraid, and she has been living a full meal and a worry, and the harvest at home was not good before, let alone having so much grain.
Even if she is tired, she feels happy, and it is worth it to look at these plump grains.
"It's just a lot, there will always be a time when it's finished, and my mother can't wait to finish it, every day."
Do you want to do it every day?
What a shame!
She looked worried, "Mother, do you think you can get something, bring the wind, and then put the millet in it, will it be much faster?" ”
"You think so beautifully, where is there such a magical thing?"
"Huh! Mother, you can't say that, don't you look at those windmills, aren't they just blown by the wind and turned? Doesn't it bring the wind with it when it turns? ”
Bai Zhou's action paused, and what he said seemed to make sense, but it was just a windmill!
"You're right, but it's just a windmill, how do you put this grain on top of the windmill?"
Hey~~~~
Mother is worthy of being the daughter of a big family, Bai Xiyan saw her to the point, and couldn't help but get more and more energetic, and discussed with her, there are two reasons why she did this.
First, she didn't want to do everything too drastically.
Second, when the windmill is made, people will not be too surprised.
Bai Zhou's also thought about this, and she just reminded her, and she got to the point at once.
"Mother, there's nothing to put on, so can we make something and put it on the windmill? Or wrap the windmill in a frame, and shake it outside with manpower, and when the windmill is windy, the millet on top of it will make a hole and let them fall slowly, so that the wind can blow all the grass clippings to the side? ”
Don't say it, Bai Zhou's sound that there is really a lot of truth, but this is easy to say, but it is difficult to do.
"You girl, it's easy to say, but it's not so simple to do."
"Mother, you wait, I have a picture frame in my head now, I'll go in and draw it for you to see, can it work?" Just do it, Bai Xiyan ran back to the room directly.
Her flamboyant movements almost scared Bai Zhou to death, and she shouted to her anxiously, "You slow down, don't forget that you are a double body now." ”
