Chapter 256: Flowing Frost: Master of Hot Air Balloon Design
As soon as I returned to the gate of the house, a family member came to report that the palace maid's sister went out, saying that she had confessed, and if I returned to the house early, I would go to the small courtyard at the corner of the street. "Oh, I know, Fang Cheng, you go back first, I'll come when I go." A person walked towards the entrance of the street, walked not far, turned around, it was a quiet alley, the door was open, and before I entered the door, I had heard the sound of familiar laughter, it was the voice of Wu Sanmei Runniang, I was happy in my heart, it seems that this family has finally moved in.
"Oh, it turned out to be Aunt Fang, you are here, hurry up and invite in, Mrs. and the three young ladies are here." The aunt I saw last time at Yang's house was hurrying over with a bucket, and when she saw me, she quickly saluted and smiled at me.
"Okay, you're busy, I'll be ...... when I go in by myself" After walking a few steps, I saw that Yang and his three daughters were busy going in and out, and they seemed to be cleaning up.
"Brother-in-law, you're here, little sister Runniang is polite." Runniang's eyes were sharp, and she had just lifted a vase to go inside, turned her face to look at me, and called out happily.
"No need to be polite, what do you want to help, just say, I just returned home, and I heard that your sister is coming this way, so I want to follow and take a look," while talking, the mother-in-law Yang, the eldest sister Bi Niang and the palace maid all came out.
"Don't be polite to the virtuous son-in-law, it's nothing, the old body is just to clean up, this yard is very dry." Today's Yang family looks in good spirits, but Bi Niang is not polite, and patted the stool that was still placed in the courtyard: "Since my brother-in-law is here, I am not polite to you when I am a sister, these things, I am afraid that I will really bother you." ”
"The family doesn't need to talk to the two families, I'll just move, hehe." smiled at the palace maid's sister, tied up the two sleeves, one in each hand, and the bearded stool of more than twenty catties was easily lifted in. The furnishings at home have been almost placed, I think I invited someone to do it, the rest of these are all small things, busy with a lot of effort, I am helping them to move the low couch right, just rested, the eldest sister Bi Niang, who has a towel on her head to block the dust, took a basin of water and put it outside the house and said: "Brother-in-law, come and wash, don't get it, the rest is not what you men do." ”
"Lang Jun, go wash your face, sit down and rest first." The palace maid sister who was cleaning also opened her mouth, let's pat the ashes, stepped out of the door, and wanted to put her hand into the basin of water, but was stopped by Bi Niang's wrist: "Don't, it's easy to bring a basin of water, look at what your hands are dirty, hold it on the pin, I'll flush it for you." ”
The wrists touched, and a touch of slippery damp heat made people's hearts skip a beat, "Oh, it's so ......" I had to rely on this eldest sister to flush and wash my hands for me. With the rest of this effort, the sound of the water was soft, the eldest sister Bi Niang's eyes were slightly bent, her plump lips were lightly opened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Brother-in-law, you took the money?" I couldn't help but be stunned by that.
"Rub your hands quickly, what are you stunned," Bi Niang pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at me, lowered her cheeks, and continued to scoop water: "Even if you don't answer, I know, it's just that, anyway, I'm moving here now, being a sister is just asking, my mother has also worked hard for so many years, and I don't want to worry her anymore......" -
Wu Biniang's words clearly mean that she thinks it is my money. "Hehe, this matter, anyway, Zhao'er mentioned it to me, and I know it, but Qian Bao is hers." We won't admit it, and it's not wrong to say what I said, isn't my money the same as the palace maid's sister's money?
Wu Biniang burst out laughing, with a smug smile on her cheeks: "Unexpectedly, my brother-in-law is such an honest man, his body and bones are also strong, and he looks like he is free from illness and disaster." It seems that my second sister is really blessed......"
What does this mean, when I said the last sentence, I clearly saw a trace of bitterness flashing on her cheeks, and I stared at Wu Biniang's figure in a daze, very confused. What the hell is this eldest sister doing?
The palace maid sister didn't answer my question, her face was flushed, and she almost wanted to break away from my hand: "Lang Jun, this is on the street, you are like this, if people see it, you must not be ashamed to death......"
"Afraid of what?" I dragged it demonstratively: "What's the matter, you're my wife, besides, in such a dark day, who has the spirit to peep at the two of us." Walking on the street that was already at night, the two of them muttered all the way, pulling and pulling small movements.
returned to the small courtyard, leaned on the bed, and comforted many aggrieved green butterflies who were left alone at home, "Okay, little thing, Ming'er, let you take Sister Zhao'er to take you to the door, what's the matter, today is moving, it's a mess, besides, it's not good if we don't stay alone in the house." ”
Green Butterfly has a good spleen, and after a few words of comfort, the smile returned to her cheeks, and there was no longer the resentment she saw when she entered the hospital just now. I like her surname very much, she doesn't hold grudges, she never cares about many small things, she is very cheerful, and even I am sometimes in a bad mood, as long as I see this happy little butterfly, the corners of my mouth will ripple with a subconscious smile, and my mood will be comfortable.
"I'm afraid my sister has already guessed that although Zhao'er gave Lang Jun a concubine for His Majesty, if it wasn't for Lang Jun's approval, how could she have so much money?" Sister palace maid sat down with her side leg leaning on me, picked a grape, carefully cut the skin with her fingernails, handed it to my lips, sucked it gently, and the moist, sweet and sour flesh entered her mouth, cool, smashing her mouth: "It seems that your sister is also a powerful person." ”
The palace maid sister smiled, although she didn't speak, her face was quite complacent, yes, the three sisters of the Wu family, the bloodline is there, I'm afraid that none of them are good cooks, it's better for us to be careful, although there will be no conflict, but we don't want to suffer dumb losses in front of a few beautiful women, it will be too cheap.
"Oh, Brother Dao is here today, please, poor Dao is waiting for you more." Yuan Tiangang raised his eyebrows at me very proudly, stretched out his hand, and hurriedly replied: "I've seen the Taoist chief, I was too busy a few days ago, but today I just took a lot of time, so it's not strange to look at the Taoist chief." "Two days ago, Yuan Tiangang sent a little Taoist priest to visit his home, saying that the objects he made had made progress, and asked me to go to see and give advice.
Without further ado, as Yuan Tiangang went straight to the back mountain, after walking for a short time, he had already seen an object that looked like a square carriage. A closer look to know that the four corners are quite curved, there is a small door on one side, after opening and walked in, very good, all are made of bamboo, the bottom is flat, paved with a layer of slightly thick bamboo mat, the length and width of the entire inner hollow are about seven feet, the rear of the carriage is fixed with a push-pull blower coal stove, the outlet pipe is obliquely inserted into the top of the trunk, reducing the bending, avoiding the lack of hot gas jet, and convenient to provide hot gas to the balloon, the side is also prepared to be used to load the bamboo basket, is also fixed. In this way, the space in the middle appears to be spacious, and then a few thick ropes are wrapped around the side of the compartment, which seems to be specially used by the occupants as handrails, very good creativity, and it is very impressive the wisdom of the ancients.
People can move freely in the carriage, which is much larger than the first sample that can soar. In order to minimize the weight, the upper part is supported by fine bamboo, and then covered with oilcloth, forming a roof, walking around in it, walked out, and pushed it with his hand, well, it is not heavy, at least it will not exceed the weight of five people, if you add coal, add a coal stove worker, sit on two or three people, or it will not exceed a thousand catties, very good, very good design concept, even compared to the hot air balloons seen on TV in later generations, I am afraid that there are many can not compare to this.
"What does Brother Dao think?" Yuan Daochang's expression could be seen and he was very excited. "Well, well, I can't think of anything better than this design, the Taoist is really powerful." He nodded with satisfaction and sighed.
"These are not the credit of the old man, speaking of which, it is still the great efforts of my apprentice." Yuan Daochang blushed a little, and stretched out his hand to the Flowing Frost Xiaodao who was sitting in the pavilion frowning and writing and drawing. On the side, the little Taoist priest of Xianyun was lying on the desk very bored, as if he was dozing off-
"Huh?! She? "I can't help but be surprised, obediently, this little Dao girl, we really didn't see it, I didn't expect that she really had two brushes." Naturally, the poor Dao doesn't dare to speak, if the Dao brother doesn't believe it, he will know when he asks. ”
I have to say that this stinky little Taoist aunt is really a talent, as Yuan Tiangang walked into the pavilion, Xianyun opened his eyes when he heard the sound, and when he saw someone coming, he quickly wiped the saliva from his mouth, stood up and saluted. Aunt Daoist also stopped her pen and greeted us.
"Sit down, sit down, Brother Dao, if you have any doubts, just ask me this good man, go get some new tea." Yuan Tiangang is very happy, of course, such an outstanding talent is his apprentice, and it is difficult to be unhappy.
Seeing the old guy leave, he turned his head and smiled at Xianyun. Cleared his throat: "Ahem, Liushuang Xiaodao Aunt ......" Before she finished speaking, Liushuang glared at me hatefully: "Childe called me Liushuang, and there is a little Daogu behind me, what do you mean?" "The appearance of a vicious voice. Gotcha, this little Lori, the whole prickly head.
