Chapter 13 Wooden Toys
After Lu Hong was beaten twice with rattan, the life of the Lu family returned to peace. But this calm is only in the eyes of outsiders, and in fact, the Lu family is really busy. And this busy person is not Lu Erniang but Lu Hong. In addition to going to school, Lu Hong practiced martial arts on weekdays, helped the family do some manual work, and began to make toys.
Since Lu Xiang'er made two hundred dollars of wooden 'bamboo dragonflies' and spinning tops before, Lu Xiang'er began to think about how to move all the toys she knew in her previous life to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Especially when Lu Erniang came back from the county and told Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er. The businessman who spent 200 yuan on Lu Xiang'er's toys has repackaged these two gadgets and promoted them quickly, and has made a lot of money for this.
This made Lu Xiang'er not only sigh at the extraordinary wisdom of the ancients, but also very envious, jealous and hateful. Fortunately, Lu Xiang'er knew a lot of toys, so she began to think about what reason to 'move' them to the Great Zhou Dynasty. can think about it, what reason is put on her, a five-year-old girl, is inappropriate. Finally, one afternoon, Lu Xiang'er, who was half-asleep and half-awake, dreamed that she was playing in Lu Tai's study, and a very reluctant reason came out.
"Auntie, Xiang'er remembered. When Xiang'er was playing in Daddy's study, she accidentally dropped a book. Although the words in the book are not recognizable, the pattern is very strange, and Xiang'er has memorized a lot. Just that wooden dragonfly and spinning top, that's what it looks like from there......"
In order to make Lu Erniang believe her words, Lu Xianger immediately gestured and said several toys. Of course, these kinds are simple to make, such as 'building blocks', 'Huarong Dao' and the like. This kind of strange toy, Lu Erniang didn't say that she had seen it, but she had never heard of it.
At the beginning, Lu Erniang, who couldn't figure it out, would secretly look at Lu Xiang'er with a strange gaze, intentionally or unintentionally. It wasn't until Lu Erniang thought that Lu Xiang'er was still the same Lu Xiang'er and believed her words that Lu Xiang'er let out a long breath in secret. Lu Xiang'er, who was a little complaining, was very afraid, so she didn't dare to 'remember' the other patterns in the book, and continued to pretend to be a five-year-old girl.
Lu Erniang, who was doing things happily, didn't know about Lu Xiang'er's inner changes, and soon 'borrowed' a set of carpenter's tools from Muramasa. The excuse is to let Lu Hong learn carpenter's work, and it is always good to have one more craft. Because of Lu Erniang's background, Mura Zhengneng was very willing to help her with this.
"Brother, the toys you made are getting better and better. This time, our family will definitely be able to make some more money. ”
"Xiang'er is really a little money fan, she knows how to make money."
"Money fans are money fans, as long as I have money, I am willing to be a money fan. Hum. ”
In the mud room, Lu Xiang'er was weaving a small basket, and Lu Hong was sitting next to him and carefully carved a painting on a wooden block. Behind Lu Hong, there are piles of toys of all sizes. Scattered pieces like 'building blocks' are packed in small baskets, and things like 'Huarong Dao' are neatly stacked together, very neatly. On the other side of the mud room, there are some sundries of the Lu family.
Obviously, this mud room was originally used to store miscellaneous items, but now it has become a small workshop for making toys. Lu Erniang realized from the wooden dragonfly and spinning top last time that this kind of easy-to-make toy, if people see it, it is not worth anything at all. In order to keep it secret, Lu Erniang sorted out the mud room, which was specially used to make toys and put toys.
Lu Hong, the main force of this small workshop, always got his hands at the beginning, and now he is quick with his hands and feet, but he is very proud. Especially looking at the piles of toys, Lu Hong always felt that something was overflowing everywhere. Even with it, when Lu Hong was practicing martial arts, the progress was also very great.
At this time, the mud room suddenly darkened, and Lu Erniang appeared at the door of the mud room, and said with a smile: "Brother Hong, your master is back." This time he hunted a big wild boar again, and asked Brother Yi to send a large piece of meat to our family. You go and see your master, and thank your master for A-Niang. ”
"Okay, A-Niang, I'll go and have a look." As soon as Lu Hong heard that Uncle Zhao was back, he immediately got up and slapped off the sawdust on his body. Lu Xiang'er on the side took a flat wooden box, pouted and said, "Brother, give this 'Huarong Dao' to Brother Yi." He even said that my toys were ingenious, and I wanted to see what he looked like when he couldn't get out of 'Huarong Road'. ”
"Okay, I got it. This time, my brother didn't help Brother Yi'er, who let him bully Xiang'er. Lu Hong took the toy and smiled, as if he also wanted to see Zhao Yi's appearance when he played this 'Huarong Dao'. I think that when he first finished it, he Lu Hong was also anxious to blush, which made Xiang'er laugh.
Although Zhao Yi is Lu Hong's 'junior brother', he can't see his nerdy appearance. Lu Xiang'er wanted to teach Zhao Yi a lesson, and of course Lu Hong was happy to push the boat down the river. Touching Lu Xiang'er's head, Lu Hong went out with a smile.
Lu Erniang picked up Lu Xiang'er with one hand, nodded her forehead with the other, and said with a sneer: "You, you love to bully Brother Yi'er." ”
"How could I bully him, he first said that I was a strange skill. Hmph, wait until all these toys are sold, and see what else he has to say. "The only thing Lu Xiang'er doesn't like about this ancient world is the kind of nerd who holds books all day long and is full of mouths.
If Zhao Yi didn't come to provoke Lu Xiang'er, she was too lazy to take care of him. But today, Zhao Yi seemed to have taken the wrong medicine, not only saying that the toys she made were tricks and tricks, but also that she was delaying Lu Hong's homework and was not a good sister. Just this sentence, but it made Lu Xianger angry, and this is what happened just now.
"Okay, our Xiang'er has experienced the most harm. Wash your hands quickly, and when my brother comes back, you can eat. Lu Erniang put Lu Xiang'er next to the well, scooped half a scoop of water for her, and went into the kitchen to serve food.
Lu Xiang'er finished washing her hands, and suddenly thought of something, so she ran to the kitchen and said to Lu Erniang: "A-Niang, I heard that Sister Yue's county is not very big. Otherwise, let's take these toys to Gangneung Mansion and sell them. Anyway, our Qinghe Village is not very far from Jiangling Mansion. Leave at dawn......"
"Okay, how can you think so much at such a young age." Lu Erniang was a little numb to Lu Xiang'er's increasingly intelligent performance. Thinking of the rich life in the past, she thought that Lu Xianger's performance was all because of her family's current situation. Lu Erniang, who was a little sad in her heart, had the wish to earn more money and let Lu Xianger grow up happily.
Seeing Lu Xiang'er smirking, Lu Erniang said again: "Seeing that you are anxious, A-Niang will tell you." Ah Niang went to the county yesterday and had already borrowed a carriage from Mr. Song's classmate. Just now, your Uncle Zhao also agreed to help our family drive the carriage and pull those toys to Jiangling Mansion to sell. ”
"Really, A-Niang, you think so well." Lu Xiang'er didn't expect that Lu Erniang had already made all these plans, and while she was happy in her heart, she couldn't help but think that the Lu family was really worthy of being a family doing business. Even Lu Erniang, a lady, has a calculating mind.
After Lu Erniang brought all the food to the house, Lu Hong also came back. During the meal, Lu Hongcai said that Aunt Zhao still didn't plan to make some toys. Lu Erniang shook her head and said, "If you don't do it, don't do it." A-Niang has already thought of it. Let your master take your Aunt Zhao to Jiangling Mansion with me, and thank you Aunt Zhao for keeping it a secret for us. ”
Since Lu Hong took Lu Xiang'er to look for Zhao Xiu and came back, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao are very grateful to Lu Hong and the Lu family, and the two families have gotten along more and more harmoniously. Every time Uncle Zhao hits back the prey, the Lu family is indispensable. And this time she made toys, Aunt Zhao never publicized it everywhere, and told Zhao Yi's brothers and sisters not to mention it to others.
This made Lu Erniang very grateful and wanted to repay Aunt Zhao. At first, Lu Erniang also wanted the Zhao family to make toys, but Aunt Zhao was not optimistic about resigning. This time, Lu Erniang begged Uncle Zhao to help drive the carriage to Jiangling Mansion, and she thought about bringing Aunt Zhao with her. Anyway, the prosperity of Gangneung Mansion is not comparable to Qingshi County.
According to the planned time, three days later, Lu Erniang left home before dawn, and the same was true of the Zhao family. Moreover, Zhao Yi and Lu Hong were still going to the school that day, and only two little girls were left in the Lu and Zhao families to take care of the house. This is a rare opportunity for Lu Xiang'er, who has been calculating for a long time.
