Chapter 339: Have You Ever Seen a Woman's Three-Inch Golden Lotus?
Opened today, business is very good.
The leopard and the second dog are all helping, and the three and four are responsible for entertaining customers. Everyone loved seeing such bright colors.
When I asked the price, it was a penny higher than ordinary cotton, but this cloth does not fade and is a good highlight. Therefore, cotton cloth for five cents and a foot sells the best.
Silk is a bit expensive, but there are more wealthy people in the county than in the town. Bright satin, smooth and shiny, shiny, very beautiful.
The leopard learned from the Yan family in Heisha Town, moved a table at the door, put four wooden basins on the table, poured most of the half basin of water into it, and then put the cloth cut into small pieces into it to prove to everyone that these fabrics do not fade.
This time, the onlookers had an intuitive understanding of the fabric that Jixiang Buzhuang said would not fade. Wherever there is a need, they buy some.
It's not a lot, but a couple of guys are very patient and don't bother. Someone was willing to ask for some finger-wide cloth, and Xiao Li's shopkeeper was also very generous and sent it out.
In the afternoon, Liu Paner returned to the shop, and originally wanted to ask, but found that there were many customers, so she also came to help. Xiao Li's shopkeeper looked at the account book, holding the abacus, crackling and calculating, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger.
The business of the shop is good, and he has confidence as the shopkeeper. Things are good, and the young man is patient and diligent, and business will only be better in the future.
Seeing that the sun was about to set, the leopard hurriedly asked, "Madam, shall we go back today?" ”
Liu Pan'er nodded, "There is Xiao Li's shopkeeper in the shop, and it's okay for me to stay here." I'll go back, now is the time to get busy in the field, tomorrow there will be a lot of things. ”
"Then let's hurry up, don't wait until it's dark, it's not easy to walk, it's dangerous." After the leopard finished speaking, he went to the backyard to catch the carriage.
Liu Paner explained a few words to Xiao Li's shopkeeper, got into the carriage, and returned to Jixiang Town.
Just when Liu Pan'er was busy with the shop and the field, Emperor Zhou Ping in the capital also received the Quyuan plough presented by Liu County's order.
Emperor Zhou Ping looked at the iron plow carefully and asked Gu Shao, "Gu Aiqing, is this iron plow really as easy to use as Liu Heng said?" ”
Gu Shao chuckled, "Your Majesty, you used to have a spring ploughing ceremony every March, you ploughed the fields, and the queen mother sowed seeds in the back, you should know how to use the iron plow." Now this one is different from the previous straight plow, it is a curved plow, but I think the usage should be similar, not too difficult. If Your Majesty is not at ease, why don't you find a place to try it first? Be skilled, if it's really easy to use, use it at the spring ploughing ceremony, and then promote the whole week through Dasi Nong. ”
Emperor Zhou Ping nodded, "Yes, Gu Aiqing makes sense, if you don't try it, how do you know if it's good or not?" Come on and take a break, just give it a try. ”
"Your Majesty is wise." Gu Shao complimented.
Emperor Zhou Ping smiled and was in a happy mood, "Gu Aiqing, how is the negotiation with Xiyun Kingdom?" ”
Gu Shao calmed down and replied respectfully: "Xiyun Kingdom thinks that our offer is too high, and wants to start a war with us. ”
Emperor Zhou Ping's expression was solemn and he looked at Gu Shao, "Can the northwest side hold it?" ”
Gu Shao replied: "Weichen thinks that he can succeed, although Li Yuanqing is a martial artist, he is not a reckless man, he is brave and strategic, and he is full of wisdom. I believe that soon, there will be a good result, and Your Majesty will not be impatient. ”
Emperor Zhou Ping smiled and nodded, "That's good, I'll wait." If you want to change, you can't give up halfway. ”
Gu Shao complimented, "Your Majesty is wise." ”
Emperor Zhou Ping smiled, his eyes swept over a fold, and he suddenly asked on a whim: "Gu Aiqing, have you ever seen a woman's three-inch golden lotus?" ”
Gu Shao was stunned for a moment, not knowing why His Majesty suddenly asked this, puzzled, "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't even have a concubine, where have you seen a woman's feet?" I've never seen a foot with a three-inch golden lotus! However, Weichen thinks that the three-inch golden lotus is just used to describe the delicate nature of a woman, not really just a three-inch golden lotus. ”
It is said that in the past, Liu Paner went to work in the field and planted seedlings, and Gu Shao once saw Liu Paner go to the field. He seems to have seen a woman's feet, and they are quite big and beautiful.
When Emperor Zhou Ping heard this, he laughed, "Gu Aiqing is really clean and self-conscious. Gu Aiqing's ancestral home is Cuiyang County, which belongs to the south, there should be many women who are wrapped in small feet and wrapped into three-inch small feet, Gu Aiqing, have you really seen it? ”
Gu Shao was stunned for a moment, it turned out that Emperor Zhou Ping wanted to talk about this matter, and nodded, "I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes." However, the woman in the backhouse hid in the backyard and never got acquainted. Most of the people we see are peasant women, who need to take care of the housework and work. At the beginning, this so-called small foot was the pursuit of those wealthy merchants who pursued small feet to walk gracefully, like a weak willow in the wind, so many families with a little family wealth, in order to let their daughters marry into better people, wrapped their small feet, and pursued this perverted beauty. ”
It hurts to walk with your feet wrapped, but in order to maintain etiquette, you can't jump, so you can only walk carefully. If the feet are too small and wobbly, aren't they like duckweed without roots or willow branches fluttering in the wind?
"You also think it's perverted to wrap your little feet?" Emperor Zhou Ping asked, his face curious.
Gu Shao nodded, thinking deeply, "Of course, this is a man's bad taste." Ordinary people feel uncomfortable wearing shoes that don't fit, not to mention how painful it is to wrap their feet into small feet! The woman wrapped her little feet, and all her toes were stepped on under the soles of her feet, and all of them were broken. Weichen also heard that a woman bound her feet, became inflamed, had a high fever that did not go away, and died of illness. ”
Such small feet imprison the woman's freedom, so that the woman can only do the activities of the little place at home, and cannot go far, and it also harms the woman's body. Last year, Weichen wanted to play, but there were too many things and I forgot about it for a while. Your Majesty, why did you suddenly talk about the three-inch golden lotus wrapping your little feet? ”
Emperor Zhou Ping pointed to the two folds on the table and said to Liang Bao, "Take it to Gu Aiqing." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." Liang Bao should get down, stepped forward and respectfully took the folds of Liu Paner and Liu County's order and handed them to Gu Shao.
"Thank you." Gu Shao took it and opened it to see that the top was the familiar Juanxiu font.
This is Liu Paner's word!
Looking at the content again, Gu Shao felt that Liu Paner was not only beautiful, but also had a better heart. Seeing the cruelty of the woman, he resolutely pointed out that it was the woman who was as vicious as a hater and kind-hearted.
It wrote about the harm of binding small feet, and also said the benefits of having a pair of heavenly feet, and took her escape process as an example, if it was a pair of small feet, she would not have been able to come to the south at all, let alone protect her four children.
The above letter, Gu Shao read it for a long time, read it several times, and then read the second letter, Liu County's order, ten lines at a glance, and quickly read it.
Emperor Zhou Ping sat on the dragon chair and looked at Gu Shao's actions and felt interesting.
Gu Shao bowed and seconded Liu Pan'er's suggestion, "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that what Mrs. Derui and Lord Liu played is a matter of great Zhou. If a woman does not have a healthy body, how can she have a healthy child? If a woman does not have a strong character, how can she raise children who are upright and strong? ”
