The more Ye Xiaoman listened, the more surprised he became, and he couldn't help but ask him, "Do you do all this at home?" ”

"Yes, my adoptive mother thinks I have little strength and can't chop meat, so I ask me to do this for others at home all day long, so I have some inputs, not for nothing."

Wei Mian nodded, his face was ignorant, as if he didn't know that these were female workers, and other male babies didn't do these things.

He took out a handkerchief, on which were embroidered two calendulas, each no bigger than a thumb, and a dozen petals were layered on top of each other, lifelike.

Ye Xiaoman looked at his beautiful face and couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that you are not a girl." "Otherwise, with this hand of female workers, the person who asks for marriage is afraid that the threshold will be broken.

Hearing this, Wei Mian's expression suddenly became guilty.

"My adoptive father and adoptive mother said the same, I'm really sorry, I didn't have a girl."

"That's not what I meant." Ye Xiaoman hurriedly explained: "I envy you." ”

"Envy me?" Wei Mian was puzzled, and neither were the others.

This year, the female baby is expensive, and only the male baby envies the female baby, and I heard for a while that the female baby envies the male baby.

"yes." Ye Xiaoman was really envious of Wei Mian...... Craftsmanship: "My mother said that the flowers I embroidered were like being trampled on, and sewing clothes is uglier than not sewing, and you look at my hair." She pointed to her bun: "It took half a column of incense to comb it." ”

"Then I'll help you comb your hair in the future, I'll comb your hair a lot, and I'll comb it quickly." Wei Mian volunteered, causing Qi Ye and Tao Ran to stare at him desperately.

Ye Xiaoman politely refused: "I have to practice more by myself, and I will call you next time I need help." ”

"Okay." Wei Mian looked disappointed.

Ye Xiaoman said again: "Why don't you help me tie it today." ”

Wei Mian nodded immediately, and Ye Xiaoman handed him the cotton cloth and told him that he wanted a butterfly pattern.

Wei Mian spread out the cotton cloth on the table, skillfully tied it up with yarn one by one, and the white and slender fingers deftly winded, twisted, picked, and worn, dazzling everyone, Ye Xiaoman admired again and again.

It was slowly getting dark, and Father Ye and Aunt Ye, who were visiting the door, came back, bringing a lot of "heard".

"I heard that the Su family is going to raise the bundle of repairs, originally one or two silver a month, including lunch, but now two or two months without food."

"I heard that Aunt Qiu and Aunt Qiu had a big quarrel, and the little peach was scared to cry."

"I heard that Widow Li's daughter is getting along with the little young master of Jinxiuji, and everyone says that Widow Li wants to get rich."

The parents are short, true or false, Ye Xiaoman smiled when he heard it, thinking about planting golden plum fruits, and went back to the room early.

It was dark, and the whole village slowly fell into a deep sleep.

In the space, Ye Xiaoman worked hard.

Now she has brought all the baskets that can hold things at home to the space, and keeps planting flowers to ripen and pick flowers.

The stele complained about her occupying the field to plant flowers, and wrote clearly: "Please don't occupy the hot loess to grow mortal things!" Please plant Rejuvenation Grass! ”

Ye Xiaoman glanced at it, planted half of the flowers and half of the grass in the ground, and the stele reluctantly compromised, and hung the words "Please plant more Fuling grass".

Ye Xiaoman worked all night, fortunately, he was young and energetic, except for being a little blue at the moment, his spirit was fine.

After the family went to the ground, she asked Qi Shan to pick a lot of mulberries and come back, then took half a bag of soybeans, sent Qi Shan to the backyard to grind tofu, and mixed dyes in the house by herself.

Dyeing the fragrance of the concubine color, the process of dyeing is difficult, and the proportion of color mixing is difficult.

Cook the mulberries without peeling and pour them directly into the bucket, stir with salt; Roselle is boiled, strained and the petals removed, poured into a bucket and stirred with alum. After the two barrels of dye are fully stirred, scoop mulberries with one water and scoop roselle with three waters, and then with two cold water scoops, continue to cook in the pot, and when the color becomes apricot-like, put the cloth down to dye, boil the water in the pot until only half is left, take the cloth out of the pot, apply a layer of salt to fix the color, wash the cloth and take it out to dry after a while, and a fragrant concubine-colored cotton cloth will be dyed.

As soon as Ye Xiaoman hung the cloth, he heard a quick knock on the door from the front yard, and Widow Li outside shouted in her voice: "Ye Xiaoman, open the door!" I know you're at home! Don't hide if you have the ability! You have what it takes to open the door! ”
