Chapter 60: The Wisdom of Heaven and Man
What Mrs. Liu cared about was why Shao Yi paid attention to Xia Yanqing, what he was thinking, and whether there was a follow-up.
Although her Wang family is not a big family with roots, it has also entered the official career and has a promising future. If the female relatives of the family are pulled in public, they really can't afford to lose this person.
She asked Xia Yanqing: "Since you know that the Shao family uncle is close to Zuo, why don't you come back immediately?" In case that person is indiscriminate and comes forward to entangle, you are a group of women, how can you be good? ”
Speaking of this, Xia Yanqing was really innocent, "There are so many people on the street, my daughter-in-law remembers Mama Tang's teachings, and she doesn't look around, let alone who Shao is." ”
She looked at Mama Tang with a look of condemnation and grievance. No one told her that she was a woman in the house who didn't leave the door and didn't step out, how could she know that the person surnamed Shao was looking at her?
She's ...... What a great injustice!
Mama Tang was blocked by Xia Yanqing repeatedly, and her head was a little big, so she had to lean over and explain: "The slave thought that the second grandmother had seen it, but she was afraid that the second grandmother would be embarrassed if she said too much, so she didn't mention it extra." ”
Xia Yanqing blinked, although this ability to find excuses is a little worse than her, but it is not bad.
Mrs. Liu sighed, glanced at Yuan again, and saw that Yuan also had a worried look on his face. So he turned to Xia Yanqing and said solemnly: "It's really not a good thing to go out with a good sense and be targeted by that gentleman." In the near future, you still don't want to go out except for the necessary socializing. ”
"Huh?" Xia Yanqing's eyes hesitated. A must-have? She, a person who has just entered the city from the countryside for more than three months, what must she do?
She looked at the people in the room one by one, and asked Ai Ai, "Mother...... Is this a punishment for my grounding? ”
Mrs. Liu was stunned for a moment, her original intention was not to ask Xia Yanqing to be grounded. But Xia Shi is so ignorant and doesn't understand the rules, it's really hard to go out alone.
Moreover, if she was really remembered by Shao Yi because of Xia Zitang, then she would have to avoid it.
Shao Yi has a bad reputation, and he doesn't care about reviews and face at all. Her two sons have great futures, but they want to be face-saving.
Mrs. Liu patiently explained: "It's not to ban you, but your mother's brother has a conflict with Shao Ye, if he is angry with you, you are a woman, even if he can't do anything to you, just let the little servants laugh at you a few words, we can't stand it." ”
Xia Yanqing's eyes flashed, what do you mean by not being able to stand it?
Could it be that if she is teased by a wicked person for a few words, she is not worthy of being the daughter-in-law of the Wang family?
If so, she was looking forward to meeting Na Shao or something......
When his thoughts diverged, he suddenly saw the solemn expressions of Mrs. Liu and Yuan, and his heart sank, and he quickly shook his head to dispel the thoughts that were lingering in his mind.
She is going to go out to do things in the future, but she can't make people think that she is a woman who can be molested at will. Besides, she still has parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, and nephews and nieces, and she can't let the people who love her be ashamed of her.
Seeing her eyes change, Mrs. Liu said gently: "Today's matter, I will ask the housekeeper of the family to go to the in-laws' house and inform the in-laws." If your in-laws think it's okay for you to leave the house, we won't detrain you. ”
Xia Yanqing blinked, extremely depressed in his heart.
said this, the Wang family moved out of the rhetoric that she was stared at by Shao Yi, where did her parents and brother dare to insist on letting her go out at will?
Perhaps, after hearing this, my brother will find that Shao or something to fight again.
"No need, my daughter-in-law doesn't go out. It's not certain whether that Shao Ye wants to provoke, if the mother's brother is serious, it will not be good to have a conflict with others again. Shao Ye has a special identity, so it's better to avoid it. ”
After Xia Yanqing finished speaking, he got up and saluted, "If the mother has nothing else, the daughter-in-law will retire." ”
Everyone is going to ban her, so she doesn't have to think about it, and she will act with a smile here.
As for informing her mother's family, she has already said this, if Mrs. Liu and others send a letter to their family, it is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they deliberately instigate the Xia family and Shao Yi to make enemies.
Thinking about it, Mrs. Liu and Wang Tao are not confused, and they will not do this kind of thing that harms others and themselves.
Watching Xia Yanqing and Mama Tang leave, Mrs. Liu sighed helplessly: I'm really ignorant. Having such a daughter-in-law at home is really disturbing.
The discipline is too much, for fear that she will make trouble regardless of her face. In this mansion, after all, there are two people from the Xia family who are married, and if there is a big event, it must not be hidden from the Xia family. Don't say what the attitude of the in-laws is, only the two elder brothers of the Xia family are very short-sighted.
There is not much wrong with the Xia family, but the relationship between his son and Xu Qinghui is hard.
If you annoy the Xia family and open up the matter, even if it can be inferred that it is Xia's own meaning, you can understand that people will know the essence of the matter as soon as they hear it, and her Wang family needs to look bad.
Alas, this day, when is the head.
She has to talk to her son about this, she can't keep doing this, and let the whole family accommodate the Xia family alone. Where is her daughter-in-law who has come back? It's clearly for the Bodhisattva!
…………
The blacksmith's business quality is very strong, although Xia Yanqing repeatedly emphasized that she was in a hurry to use this thing, but the blacksmith insisted on refusing to deliver it early.
In the spirit of being conscientious and responsible, the blacksmith explained to her that her small object required the material to be uniform, so it would take at least a day to temper the metal repeatedly, and it would take at least a day to deliver the first batch of Xia Yanqing's request, a group of six small components.
Therefore, on the second and third days of the order, Xia Yan cleared the rules for half an hour and learned the rules in the afternoon, and the rest of the time, together with Mr. Bai, prepared to turn on the stove again and fire pottery.
On the third day, the eldest daughter-in-law took back the temperature measuring tablets, passed them outside the second gate, entered the inner courtyard, and handed over the things to Xia Yanqing.
Xia Yanqing planned to dig a hole in each of the four directions of the stove, east, west, north and south, and install a temperature measuring sheet.
She asked for temperature measuring tablets, but there were six in each group, which was afraid that the copper and iron materials would not be easy to control, and there would be uneven materials, resulting in temperature measurement errors.
Therefore, in the same temperature environment, depending on the curvature of the thermometer after heating, select the closest four. The rest of the errors can only be shelved, and together with the future obsolete products, they will be screened again.
She found a long iron trough such as a barbecue grill and burned charcoal evenly to heat the thermometer and sift it.
In the guest house, Mr. Bai and Qiao'er, as well as Xia Yanqing's girl, all stared at the six thermometers with burning eyes, waiting for the phenomenon described by Xia Yanqing before to appear.
These six thermometers, in the form of standing sideways, respectively fixed one end of the thermometer tablets on the six thin pottery tablets.
Thin pottery shards are placed on top of the reddish charcoal fire. After a short time, the copper-iron composite sheet is heated and begins to bend.
As the heating time increases, the unfixed end continues to bend, beginning to approach and then exceed the scale on the pottery shard.
Mr. Bai and a few maids gathered around the iron trough, dumbfounded.
This thing, after being heated, actually bends. Looking at it like this, the stronger the firepower, the more obvious the bending degree of the metal sheet, and now the degree of change of these six metal pieces is surprisingly consistent.
There is a composite metal sheet that, after bending, shows a slight deviation in the scale, but it is also limited.
Among several people, Mr. Bai was the first to understand the meaning of this, and she exclaimed in a low voice: "The second grandmother really has the wisdom of heaven and man, and she can actually come up with such a delicate object." With this metal sheet as an auxiliary, the firepower of all kilns in the future, even if it is an ordinary fireworker, I am afraid that it can be controlled. ”
