Chapter 91: Dreaming of Modernity Again
Seeing Du Mei coming back in a carriage, Xu hurriedly greeted him, and Du Ying took the basket.
"You've really taken the job!" Xu knew very well in her heart that Du Mei's embroidery was already very skilled, and if she had the heart to fight, she would definitely return home.
"Mother, look, I brought back the rice!" Du Mei smiled.
"This ...... So much? Xu Shi looked at the more than ten sacks in the carriage, and his tongue was a little knotted.
"Aunt Xu, where is the rice unloaded?" Ye Qing patted the dust on his body and asked.
"Oh, here." Xu Shi pointed to the barn, she was a little worried that the place was too small to pile so much.
"Old and young masters, come and help." Ye Qing always went to Dujiagou to collect embroidery, and most people knew him.
Du Jiasuo has stopped carpentry work and is going home to prepare for double robbery. Seeing that it was so lively in front of the door, he stretched out his head to look at it and heard Ye Qing's voice.
"Oops, Dumei is amazing!" Fang said happily behind him.
"What's going on?" Du Jiasuo just arrived home, and he didn't know what to do.
"Meizi must have taken the big job of embroidering the screen of Yunshang Embroidery! You see that she bought so much rice, or did the shopkeeper Xiaoye personally send her back? Fang said as he pulled the Du family lock to help.
After listening to Fang's words, the onlookers were relieved. Some people shook their heads and sighed that they didn't have this craft, while others had a greedy gaze like a wolf seeing a sheep.
Du Zhong and Du Shu went to the field to see how the wheat was growing, and when they came back, they saw a lot of people gathered in front of the door of the second room, and they didn't know what was going on, so they quickened their pace to see. When they saw that it was carrying rice, they didn't say a word, left the guys, and stepped forward to help.
"I'm here to help, too." The second stunned man passed by with a basket on his shoulder, and when he saw this busy situation, he also stepped forward to help.
A sack is less than half a stone, Du Jiasuo and Du Zhong are strong laborers, and with a grasp of both hands, they can be thrown to their shoulders and carried into the barn in great strides.
Du Shu and Ye Qing are both half-grown children, and they can only be carried in by the two of them, and they are so tired that they are snorting.
Although the second stunned man is old, he is small, he wants to be like Du Zhong, but he can't throw it off his shoulder after trying a few times, which only causes the onlookers to laugh.
"What are you laughing at, I haven't eaten enough and have no strength!" The second stunned tightened the belt of his trousers, squatted down, and finally moved a bag of rice to his back, grabbed it with both hands, and carried it to the barn.
After a few trips back and forth, the rice moved into the house.
The second stunned man still lingered on the more than ten sacks, and when he saw that everyone else was gone, he had no choice but to leave in a sneering manner.
I don't know who it was, I kicked over the stunned bamboo basket, and some green and yellow ears of wheat fell out.
"Second stunned, you are dead, who cut so many ears of wheat, and the food is ruined in vain!" A woman cried out.
"I'll cut my own house, it's up to you!" The second stunned man hurriedly ran out of the yard, picked up the ears of wheat, and walked away.
"MDB, your family only has two acres of land, and you can eat four acres of grain!" A man yelled at the back of the stunned man.
The second stunned deaf ear, did not scold back, and ran away without a trace.
Taking advantage of the afterglow of the evening, Ye Qing drove the carriage back to the town.
Xu's only worry is that the screen cannot be delivered on time, and she is also very happy when she hears Du Mei say that there is no time limit. For the first time since the separation of ducks, she showed a comfortable smile.
The three little ones were even happier, and took out the flower cloth and compared it one by one, and chose the one they liked.
"Sister, is this really for me to make clothes?" Du Gui was the youngest, she wore her sisters' old clothes all the year round, held muslin in her hand, and asked in disbelief.
"Yes, later
There's a better one for you. Du Mei looked at Du Gui and touched her soft hair, feeling distressed for a while.
"Mother, this is for you." Du Mei handed a piece of aqua blue cloth to Xu.
"Oh, you sisters are long, so you should do it. I still have old clothes to wear. Besides, your father ......" Xu looked at it and didn't answer.
"Daddy's spirit in heaven will also want us to live well." Du Mei hugged Xu.
"Why didn't you bring the tricks back?" Xu smiled reluctantly and diverted to another topic.
"Tomorrow, the two shopkeepers will send the embroidery shelf silk thread and the painting together." Dume said.
"That's really a nuisance for them, let's leave them for dinner tomorrow." Xu asked.
"Okay, I just bought some meat today." Du Mei nodded.
On this night, Du Mei's family was happier than the Chinese New Year, Xu boiled soup with bones, roasted meat with wild snow vegetables, and fried a bowl of leeks. On top of that, the family had a luxurious meal of japonica rice!
That night, Du Mei slept very soundly, the duck food was settled, and the wheat was saved. If you embroider the screen again, this day is getting better and better.
It's still the same room as bright as day, and Du Mei actually came back in his dream again!
The girl in the big chair stretched, rolled over and fell back into a deep sleep.
Du Mei returned to this place, as if he were a world away. Last time, she didn't know how to read, but this time, she was able to read, but some of the words were different, but she didn't even guess it, and it didn't affect her reading.
The dolls were still sitting in rows, and she stepped forward to look at them one by one and memorized them in her heart.
There is a huge window embedded in the wall, which takes up almost an entire wall. Du Mei leaned over carefully, there was no window paper on the window, she reached out and touched it, but it was cold, and she could still see outside.
Du Mei looked out, there seemed to be no night here, everywhere was lit up, and the moon and stars in the sky were invisible.
She unconsciously lowered her head, frightened and retreated. Her house is out of the yard, and she is used to it. But now she was standing high above the ground, which made her feel dizzy.
Du Mei has been to Shewu Mountain, standing on the top of the mountain, Dujiagou has become smaller. But she wasn't scared in her heart because she knew how to go down the hill and get home. And here, the four walls are steep, do you use flying?
Du Mei retreated into the large chair to read. Time flies, but after two pages, the morning light fills the room.
The little black box suddenly made a strange sound, rapid and loud. The girl in the big chair reached out and touched it, and Du Mei carefully pushed the small black box into her hand.
The girl fumbled for a while, and her voice stopped abruptly. Suddenly, she sat up, her hair hanging down, her eyes still closed.
Du Mei was so frightened that he hid behind a large chair. But I saw the girl hanging her head and staggering open a door with her slippers down, and then there was the sound of running water.
Du Mei hurriedly searched for a hiding place in the house, but the house was too small, where could he hide?
Just when she was at a loss, the girl came out head-on. But she turned a blind eye to Du Mei under her nose, and walked past her refreshedly, and went to tidy up the thick cotton cloth on the big chair.
"She can't see me?" Du Mei was originally an embarrassed image of being caught as a thief immediately, but now she found that the girl ignored her and became playful.
She deliberately walked back and forth in front of the girl, waving her hand and grimacing. The girl didn't notice it at all, and didn't react at all.
It seems that this is really invisible.
Du Mei was having a good time, but the girl only focused on the little black box, and her fingers were dotting on it.
Soon bored Du Mei, right
There was interest behind that door, and the girl just went in for a while, why did she go in sloppily and come out refreshingly?
Du Mei sneaked the door in, and was confronted with a square white and shiny object hanging on the wall, reflecting a cloth bag behind the door.
"Is this a bronze mirror? Is there such a big and clear thing in the world? Du Mei couldn't help but step forward and touch it.
I obviously heard the sound of water just now, but this room was a little bigger, Du Mei looked around, and as far as the eye could see, there was not even a puddle.
There is a smooth groove under the mirror that reflects the cold light, and there is a handle on it. Du Mei turned left and right, pushed up and down, and suddenly a stream of water rushed out like a flood, which startled Du Mei.
"Huh, I forgot to turn off the water?" The girl pushed the door in, and Du Mei knew that she couldn't see it, but she hurriedly avoided behind the door.
The last time Du Mei came, he was scared every time he moved, and now it is the second time he has come, and he is still stunned by this modern thing.
She honestly sat in the big chair and stared at the girl.
The girl had already changed into a floral dress that exposed her arms and legs while she was looking for water. The fabric of the skirt is soft, elegant and flexible, and the waist is well closed, making it appear to be slender and slender. Her hair, which had just been loose, was already tugged at the back of her head, revealing a smooth forehead and a thin white neck.
At this time, the girl sat on the big chair, and had opened the big black box, and was busy with all her attention, her fingers flying, and she didn't know what she was messing with.
"Chirp." There was a shout.
I saw that the girl's fingers moved somehow, and another girl appeared in the black box and greeted her.
Du Mei was startled by the sudden situation, and she instinctively wanted to hide, but remembered that they couldn't see her. He sat down and stared at the novel scene in front of him.
"Hi, Dume. Sorry, I can't accompany you today. "The girl in the black box has a delicate face, plump and delicate.
"Meng Feifei, where did you die? I'm in a hurry. The girl complained.
It turns out that this girl not only looks like herself, but even has the same name. A smile tugged at the corner of Umeko's mouth.
"Gee, how is tomorrow going? Today is a limited edition release of Adi Converse. Meng Feifei threw her eyes and begged for forgiveness. She was obviously in a shopping mall, surrounded by young men and women.
"If you blink again, your eyelashes will fall out! You are a shoe control, limited edition, it is hunger marketing, stupid or not! Du Mei shook her head at her obsession.
"Because it's rare, it's precious! I'm just going to be the first to have it! Meng Feifei proudly ruffled her long curly hair.
"People earn money like you, and many people are stupid money!" Du Mei said to her word by word.
"Okay, how the hell are you producers embarrassing you, big weekend, with a bitter and hateful face." Meng Feifei quipped.
"Well, it's a long story, one word, duck." Dume pouted.
"No wonder you want me to take you to a famous duck shop to taste it." Meng Feifei looked clear.
"You're a food shower, of course I know more than I do." Du Mei laughed.
At this moment, the sound of "Dididi" came from outside the door.
"Wait a minute, my takeout has arrived." Dumay stood up and went to open the door.
As the door opened, a young man handed her a bulging bag.
What is takeaway? Meizi was surprised in her heart, this Du Mei had been in the house with her all morning, why did someone bring her something?
It smells like it's food, but why is it still mixed with a foul smell? Meizi sniffed, looking dazed. 2k reading web
