CHAPTER XV
Things in the world are limited by materials, and they can't be exactly the same as the feathers of heaven and man. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe so-called Qiao Woman is difficult to cook without rice, even if the Weaver Girl goes down to earth, she can't conjure Tencel to weave cloth out of thin air, she can only imitate it as much as possible.
Using the thin three-fold silk, imitating the pattern of the celestial feather coat, and then bleaching and dyeing with grass juice and ore powder, the same piece of cloth, in the sun, under the moonlight, under the lamp, the pattern and color are different.
When a piece of cloth was woven off the machine, the little girl was deeply attracted by the beautiful fabric, she stroked the silky and soft cloth, and couldn't put it down, but soon, but turned into a sad face: "How can this be sold for an ocean." ”
"One ocean and one horse?" The Weaver Girl smiled, "If you go to those big trading houses to sell, someone will rush to buy a horse in a hundred oceans." ”
The little girl doesn't believe it, who would spend a hundred oceans just to buy a piece of cloth? It is also very comfortable to wear a two-horse cloth in the ocean, and it is too difficult for this little girl who grew up in a family whose purpose is to eat a full stomach, and it is really difficult for her to understand the word "luxury".
The Weaver Girl did not intend to discuss this with her, she took the cloth woven by the little girl, and went to the big trading houses in the city to sell them, and it happened that the merchants from the European continent bought the goods in the trading houses, and when they saw that a piece of cloth could have such a miraculous change in different lights, their eyes were green.
A hundred oceans? That's just the starting price.
Finally, when the little girl held five hundred oceans in her hand, she could scarcely believe that the heavy feeling came from the silver dollar.
She looked up at the Weaver Girl, very nervous, for fear that in the blink of her eyes, the beautiful sister in front of her would be gone, and the silver dollar in her hand would become a large pile of stones.
"You money-loser, weaving is getting slower and slower, you have to do something, this cloth has been woven for fifteen days!" It was her drunken father, who was still carrying a cheap wine jug in his hand, and entered the door with three shakes.
When he saw the Weaver Girl, his eyes narrowed: "Yo, where did the beautiful woman come from?" ”
The little girl timidly said, "This sister has come to teach me how to weave." ”
"Weaving? Hehehe, it's so beautiful, go to the city to sell it, and you can make a lot of money overnight. The drunken laughed.
"You killer of a thousand knives, what kind of wild woman are you hooking up with!" Listening to this voice, I knew that it was the stepmother who was very difficult to mess with, and I saw a vulgar woman who had tried hard to make a face with the big red rouge and followed the drunk into the door.
"Since I entered your door, I have had a good day, let you take care of your brother at home, weaving, what do you do with this wild woman, the cloth is not good, the whole family has to drink the northwest wind." The queen mother said viciously.
Not only that, but she also picked up the wooden stick placed behind the door, and hit the little girl on the head and face, the little girl dodged in a panic, and hurriedly handed over the silver dollar in her hand: "I'm not lazy, the money from the sale of the cloth last time is here." ”
The stepmother opened the package, the whole person seemed to be shining, and suddenly smiled: "Ouch, it's still a little useful to lose money, it's enough for you to eat and drink at home this month, and you have to knit more, so that you can buy new clothes for your brother." Half a month is too long, once raw and twice ripe, give you seven days to weave a horse, it's okay after all, right? ”
This excessive request made even the Weaver Girl stunned, she shook her head and said to herself: "The human heart is not enough to swallow the statue." When the stepmother heard it, she smiled and said: "When the girl is older, she must save more money, so that she can be beautiful when she gets married in the future, otherwise it won't make her in-laws laugh?" ”
The drunkard's eyes swept over the Weaver Girl: "If you don't have a place to go, you might as well stay at my house for you to eat and drink, you just need to weave." ”
The Weaver Girl sneered and said nothing, the stepmother was obviously very unhappy with such a beautiful woman staying in her own house, she rolled her eyes, and said very enthusiastically: "I think this girl must have something else to do, she has helped lose money for so long, we should also invite her to have a meal, the child and his father, you go to the market to buy some meat and vegetables and come back, we will treat people to a good meal." ”
"Huh? Do you want to invite her to dinner? The drunkard was clearly not pleased.
The stepmother squeezed her eyebrows: "Of course you have to invite, after buying the vegetables, go to Li Jisheng's shop, buy some spices, and choose the best and most expensive." ”
"Li Jisheng still has a store?" The drunk asked in a daze.
Seeing that he didn't understand, the stepmother pulled him aside and muttered for a long time, and the drunkard suddenly realized.
Then the stepmother took out a silver dollar from her pocket: "This is enough." ”
The drunken man squinted his eyes and looked straight into his pocket: "That's so much, just give me one." ”
"I'll give you another one, no more, hurry up." The stepmother pushed the drunk out of the house.
