Chapter 186: Harvesting and dyeing cloth
It is still very big to enter the cloth village, the bamboo frame in the backyard is set up to dry cloth of various colors, a warehouse in the east is a dye vat for dyeing fabrics, and a warehouse in the west is stacked with fabrics.
Lu Pingsu pointed to the dyed cloth on the bamboo frame: "Look at the sky, I'm afraid that a rain is coming, you first collect all the dyed cloth here, and then come to me." ”
Xia Ye looked at almost a dozen frames of dyed cloth, and said in his heart that this was completely trivial, so he agreed.
The sky was overcast, indeed like a sign of an approaching storm, and Xia Ye rolled up her sleeves and prepared to start collecting the cloth.
The long dyed cloth, she first pulled it from one end, and then slowly pulled it down, in the layers of rolls, because the bamboo frame has a limited load-bearing, all the skills to be mastered when pulling the cloth down, Xia Ye didn't know at first, and almost pulled the bamboo frame down.
Oh my! This is simply too difficult to get it, as soon as I got a piece of cloth Xia Ye felt exhausted, hammered down his sore waist, and looked at the remaining dozen pieces of cloth.
The color of the cloth is the same gray and blue, it stands to reason that spring is about to begin, and the cloth village should dye more bright cloth, so that it can be sold.
Why is it all this gray-cyan color? Xia Ye thought about it, or continued to collect the cloth, the sky was cloudy, more and more gloomy, and even a breath of moisture could be smelled in the air.
The other servants had already packed up their work and hid back in the room, Xia Ye was unfamiliar with life here, and seeing that no one came to help, she couldn't ask anyone to help her.
Collected more cloth, his subordinates are naturally familiar with it, a little faster than just now, and after collecting three pieces of cloth, Xia Ye has begun to sweat, and he has roughly counted, and there are still nine pieces of cloth that have not been collected.
A thunderstorm passed through the sky, and Xia Ye's subordinates panicked even more, they couldn't finish collecting the cloth later, and they would definitely be driven out of the cloth village.
A young man who was hurrying back to his house stopped when he passed by Xia Ye: "Little brother, do you want to help?" ”
Xia Ye glanced at the man with a beautiful face: "You want to help me?" ”
The man nodded, "Hmm." ”
"Okay." Xia Ye glanced at the man gratefully, and his infinitely sad mood just now was a little better.
The man was very thin, about the same height as Xia Ye, and with his help, Xia Ye collected the cloth faster.
Although the man was thin, he seemed to be very skilled at collecting cloth, and he picked up the cloth with a bamboo pole on the side, so that Xia Ye didn't have to put so much effort into collecting the cloth.
There was another flash of lightning in the sky, and the entire dark sky was instantly illuminated, and thin raindrops began to fall from the sky, and Xia Ye carried the last piece of cloth into Xiku.
"It's dangerous, it's just a little bit of rain." Xia Ye hugged the last piece of cloth and patted the raindrops on it: "Thank you so much today." Xia Ye looked at the man and said.
"It's fine." The man smiled and asked, "The little brother is new, right?" ”
Xia Ye nodded: "Well, my name is Xia..." Before Xia Ye's Xia character could be spoken, she immediately stopped, and almost didn't bite her tongue when she was excited: "My name is Li Ye!" ”
"My name is Jin Bing." The man looked at the rain outside, and it became more and more rapid: "Little brother, if you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me, I live in the last room in the north." ”
Jin Bing pointed to the last room in the warehouse, and then hurried back to the room while the rain was not too heavy.
Xia Ye remembered that Lu Bo just now said that she would let her go to him after she finished collecting the cloth, put down the cloth in her hand, and Xia Ye covered her head with her hand and ran over.
"Lu Bo." Seeing that Lu Bo, who was sitting in the front yard, was about to fall asleep, Xia Ye called softly!
Lu Suping dozed off, and after being woken up by Xia Ye, he looked at the dripping rain outside: "The cloth is finished?" ”
"Hmm." Natsuba nodded.
"You didn't get caught in the rain, did you?" Lu Suping got up and walked to the counter and asked.
"Nope." Natsuba shook her head.
Lu Suping glanced at Xia Ye, with a lot of appreciation in his eyes, and then took out a waist card from the counter and handed it to Xia Ye: "This is your waist card, there is still a vacant bed in the last room of Xiku, that is your room." ”
"Also, this is your clothes, tomorrow Sister-in-law Zhen will come over to teach you how to dye cloth." After Lu Bo finished speaking, he took out another dress that was the same as Jin Bing.
There are so many rules and systems in the cloth village, I didn't expect that under her industry, there is such a tall cloth village.
Xia Ye took the clothes and the wooden card, the wooden card had the word "Ding" written on it, and after hanging the wooden card on her waist, Xia Ye was ready to go back to the room that Lu Bo said, she remembered that Jin Bing, who helped her collect and dye cloth just now, lived in that room, right?
The rain is getting more and more urgent, Xia Ye is now under the eaves of the front yard, I don't know how to get over, if I run to the backyard like this, I'm afraid she will be soaked.
"Come with me."
Lu Bo suddenly appeared behind Xia Ye, holding an oilcloth umbrella in his hand: "It just so happens that I am also going to survey the warehouse, such a heavy rain, send you over." ”
At first, Xia Ye still felt that this old man was a bit of a fox and a fake tiger, but now he thinks it's quite good: "Thank you Uncle Lu." Xia Ye and Lu Bo shared an umbrella, and when they arrived in the backyard, Xia Ye was ready to go back to the room.
She saw that Lu Bo's left shoulder was wet with a large chunk, and her heart was suddenly inexplicably moved, seeing that Lu Bo didn't say anything, she had no choice but to go back to the room, but her good impression of this old man in her heart increased dramatically.
Forgive her for being warmed up and cold, and cold when she is cold, who makes her love and hate in this life clear and unpleasant.
Pushing open the room, there were more than a dozen servants sitting in each other, and Xia Ye saw Jin Bing at a glance: "Hey! Xia Ye hurriedly walked over and said hello.
"Li Ye?" Jin Bing sat in front of a bunk, soaking in hot water at his feet: "You have been assigned to this room?" ”
"Hmm." Xia Ye hugged his clothes and nodded, it was good to have someone to talk to in this strange place.
Jin Bing thought that Xia Ye had already divided the room, but it turned out that the room had not been divided: "That's really a coincidence, there is no one sleeping in the shop next to me." After Jin Bing finished speaking, he took his things away from the shop.
"Really? What a coincidence! Xia Ye hurriedly walked over, about to put his clothes on the bunk, but accidentally kicked the footbasin of a person opposite, and the water in his footbasin splashed out, wetting Xia Ye's shoes.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Ignoring the wet shoes, Xia Ye hurriedly apologized.
The man didn't seem to appreciate Xia Ye's apology, and kicked some water on Xia Ye's body: "New here, don't you have long eyes when you walk?" ”
Xia Ye looked at the five big and three coarse food, a man who topped the two of them, and suddenly felt very aggrieved in his heart, the aisle was not big, who asked him to put the foot basin out like this, and besides, she didn't mean it.
"What are you staring at? Not convinced? The man looked at Xia Ye with an unhappy face, and when he said this, the men in the opposite shop all stood up and looked at Xia Ye.
And the people in her row of shops are as if they haven't seen anything.
