Chapter 22 Wheelchairs

"Well, let's not talk about that. I'll finish the painting first. Mo Xiaoqi flattened the paper as he spoke.

At this time, Zhao Hongyi and Bai Xi saw a handful of goose feathers in her hand.

"Xiaoqi, what are you doing with goose feathers?" Zhao Hongyi was puzzled.

Mo Xiaoqi didn't say anything, he chose one from a handful of goose feathers, and then dipped it in ink.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes, I won't use a brush, it's hard. Replace it with goose feathers first. After speaking, Mo Xiaoqi began to carefully draw the pattern of the wheelchair on the paper.

"It's called a wheelchair." Mo Xiaoqi placed the painting in front of Zhao Hongyi, "Let the old lady sit on it, let people push it or turn the big wheel with their hands to move." ”

Zhao Hongyi took a look, the objects on the paper were very rare, if it was really like what Mo Xiaoqi said, it would be really good.

"Well, you wait a minute, I'll draw the details." Mo Xiaoqi thought about it, afraid that the carpenter would not understand his drawing, so he immediately began to draw the drawings of parts again.

Fortunately, in his previous life, he learned a few hands from his carpentry grandfather, and now he can come in handy, Mo Xiaoqi feels very happy.

When the details were completed, Zhao Hongyi picked up the drawings in surprise and looked at them one by one: "Xiaoqi, it's amazing, you are really talented and intelligent, and your imagination is outstanding." ”

"Hey, it's alright. Hongyi, you take the drawings and find the skilled craftsmen in the county to make them. Mo Xiaoqi touched his hair, "Remember to explain the size, which is about the size of the Taishi chair." Let the carpenter play freely, as long as the function is perfect. ”

Zhao Hongyi nodded and carefully dried the ink on the paper.

"Your pen made of goose feathers is very useful." Zhao Hongyi waited for the ink to dry and focused on the quill.

"Hey, hey, kids' stuff." Mo Xiaoqi casually put the goose feather on the counter.

"I'll explain to you the specific details and functions of the wheelchair again, and you can repeat it to the carpenter, don't make a mistake." Mo Xiaoqi is still more concerned about this matter.

After Mo Xiaoqi explained the details again, Zhao Hongyi folded up the dry drawings and put them in his sleeve.

"I'm here to find the best craftsman in town." Zhao Hongyi came out with the drawings, and Mo Xiaoqi also set out to study the birthday banquet menu.

The menu still needs to be handed over to Mrs. Li one by one, but she can't write, or she can't write the characters of this era.

This became a big trouble, but fortunately, the shopkeeper Bai Xi was willing to help, which saved her a lot of energy.

It's just that she didn't expect that she, a college undergraduate, would suffer a loss of no culture in this era.

No, Mo Xiaoqi felt that he still had to learn, and it was very troublesome not to know how to write traditional characters. Knowing alone doesn't do much.

The matter of recruiting kitchen apprentices has gradually become eyebrow-raising, and Bai Xi has selected several pleasing ones from among the applicants to let Mo Xiaoqi look at them.

There were eight people standing in a row, all men.

Mo Xiaoqi sat on the chair, and the eight people who came to apply for the job had their own characteristics.

"Have you ever been in this business before?" Mo Xiaoqi began to ask.

A fat man stood up and said, "Boss, I used to work in the Yellow Crane Tower, and I used to be the chef there." ”

"Oh, good." Mo Xiaoqi didn't care, looking at his smug and arrogant look, he felt that this fat man was not down-to-earth.

"And the rest, none of you have experience? So how did you come up with the idea of coming to be an apprentice? Mo Xiaoqi peeled the orange and put a petal in his mouth, it was so sour.

"If you want to make money and open a store, if you have the cooking skills of Kelaixiang, then there is no problem." There was a young man who was blunt.

Mo Xiaoqi nodded and said, "Well, ambitious people are more likely to succeed." You stay. ”

The fat man, who had been a chef in the Yellow Crane Tower, said, "Boss, what about me?" ”

The fat man's eagerness made Mo Xiaoqi frown: "I'm sorry, I don't think my small shop can accommodate your big Buddha, perhaps, the Anping Restaurant not far away needs you."

"You! Hum. The fat man left on his own without saying anything, but then he really went to Anping Restaurant.

Of the last eight people, only the ambitious young man and another young boy were left.

Bai Xi also asked Mo Xiaoqi, why did he leave an ambitious apprentice?

Mo Xiaoqi said: "Because Kelaixiang will expand in the future and open branches all over the country, he is a good candidate." ”

"Aren't you afraid that he will turn against the water?" Bai Xi didn't understand.

Mo Xiaoqi shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid, since you choose him, there is naturally a way to make him loyal." ”

This kind of confident appearance makes Bai Xi very admirable, it is rare for a woman to have such self-confidence and extraordinary ability.

There is still a month left for the birthday banquet in the Li Mansion, during which Mo Xiaoqi takes the time to deliver meals to the Li Mansion every day, and the menu is also finalized little by little.

Zhao Hongyi came to her every once in a while with drawings, and she also pointed out them one by one, and the wheelchair was ready little by little.

Finally one day, Zhao Hongyi happily let people push a wheelchair to come to the guest.

Bai Xi walked around the wheelchair with a face full of surprise, and praised Mo Xiaoqi for being smart enough to come up with such a convenient tool.

"Where's the chess?" Zhao Hongyi couldn't help but look at the back kitchen.

Seeing this, Bai Xi hurriedly asked Xiao Er to go to the back kitchen to call someone.

"Hongyi." Mo Xiaoqi came out of the back kitchen, still wearing an apron.

Zhao Hongyi's eyebrows were full of smiles, patted the armrest of the wheelchair, and said with a smile: "Look at Xiaoqi, it's done." ”

"Oh?" Only then did Mo Xiaoqi notice the wheelchair beside Zhao Hongyi, stepped forward to sit on it and try it, and nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, this can be regarded as a gift for Old Madam Li." ”

The two talked happily, and Bai Xi had been studying the wheelchair beside him.

The old lady of the Bai Xi family has also been paralyzed in bed, just like Mo Xiaoqi's mother-in-law.

"That...... Boss Mo, can I ask you to ......" Bai Xi said with some embarrassment.

"I know." Mo Xiaoqi smiled at him, then turned his head and asked Zhao Hongyi, "Hongyi, I don't know if I can ask that craftsman to make two more wheelchairs." ”

"Haha, I knew you were going to ask me so much. You see. Zhao Hongyi said, clapped his hands, and the official pushed two wheelchairs and walked in from outside the door.

Of course, Bai Xi is very happy, so that she can push the old lady of the family back and forth, and her old man will definitely be very happy.

"Hongyi, thank you so much. You always know what I want. Mo Xiaoqi thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

"I'm the godfather of my children." Zhao Hongyi smiled gently, "Let's take Shu'er back to see his grandmother first, how about it?" ”

Mo Xiaoqi nodded in agreement, she has been busy recently, and she only asks someone to go over every day to deliver meals and take care of some housework.

She really should take the child back to see it. So after being busy with the meal, Mo Xiaoqi led the tree, Zhao Hongyi pushed the wheelchair, and the three of them rushed to Mo Xiaoqi's husband's house.

Her mother-in-law was still the same, lying on the bed, scolding and scolding when she saw someone.

But when Mo Xiaoqi put Shu'er on her bed, the old man's expression softened.

"You know how long it has been since I've seen a child." The mother-in-law complained.
