Just when Xu Yue was worried about her sore arm, Wang Dayou gave her a surprise.

He made the pedal spinning machine she wanted!

This is something Xu Yue didn't expect.

Wang Dayou carried the transformed spinning machine, rushed to Xu Yue, inexplicably excited, and incoherently described the source of his inspiration for creating this spinning machine.

Xu Yue listened hard for a long time, and finally understood.

It turned out that after receiving the artwork from Wang the day before yesterday, Wang Dayou tried to make a template out of wood first, and the spring naturally failed, but the gear succeeded.

He did a few more, and inadvertently put the two gears together, and with a flick of his hand, a flash of inspiration seemed to unlock the door to a new world.

So, the pedal spinning machine came out in this way!

Thanks to the combination of gears, the foot-operated spinning machine is not only lighter than the previous hand-cranked, but also rotates faster.

Xu Yue tried it on her feet, except that the wooden gear was a little unsmooth, it was much easier to use than the hand-cranked.

However, before Xu Yue could express his gratitude, Wang Dayou rushed back to continue his research on the smooth metal gears that he hadn't yet studied.

The weather was fine, and Xu Yue and her sister moved the newly baked pedal spinning machine to the yard and spun the thread while basking in the sun.

Xu Erniang was in charge of spinning, and Xu Yue used two wooden skewers to try to find the feel when she knitted sweaters in college.

When I was addicted to weaving, there was a murmur outside the courtyard gate: "Girl, is this Xu Youniang's house?" ”

Sitting in front of the gate of her own courtyard, Jun Mei, who was doing arithmetic with a wooden board while looking at her younger brother, raised her eyes to look at the father and son in front of her, and did not answer first, but asked vigilantly:

"Who are you? What are you looking for a young lady? ”

The man helped the somewhat crooked wheelbarrow, pressed the bulging burlap bag on it, and said:

"I am a tenant at the head of the village, next to me is my Sanlang sheep baby, we are here to send wool to Xu Youniang, little girl, are you from the Xu family?"

When Jun Mei heard that she was here to deliver something to Xu Yue, she hurriedly got up and put down the plank, pointed to the big courtyard next door and said:

"That's the young lady's house over there, I'll lead you there."

"Ah Jian." Junmei called her younger brother, Xiao Ajian ran over, and the two sisters and brothers led the people to the gate of the Xu family.

Xu Yue, who was sitting in the courtyard, heard the movement and came out, and when she saw the mountain bag pressed high on the wheelbarrow, the happy smile on her face gradually faded.

As soon as Yang Wazi saw her, he smiled at her worriedly, and introduced the man next to him as his father, Zhao Er.

The man was a small man, dressed in patched sackcloth and straw sandals on his feet, dressed like most of the villagers.

Although he raised a flock of sheep, he had many children in the family and his life was not rich.

After hearing from his son that wool can also be sold for money, the family began to shear the sheep overnight, and worked for three days in a row before packing up all the wool and transporting it to Xu Yue.

Seeing Xu Yue, the man showed a flattering and embarrassed smile on his face, and asked, "Girl, is it two dollars a catty?" ”

Xu Yue nodded, called the brother who was chiseling stones in the courtyard to come over and remove the threshold, and motioned for the two cars of the sheep baby father and son to push in.

Xu Erniang had already taken the scale, and while looking at the father and son, she opened her pocket to check the wool inside.

Tomato is free to read

The sheep baby lowered her head, I don't know if she was afraid of Xu Erniang's scrutiny or what, anyway, she hasn't raised her head since she entered the door.

His father Zhao Erniang smiled, his eyes dodged, Xu Erniang frowned, glanced at Xu Yue, saw that she didn't say anything, and began to weigh the wool.

A car full of solidly pressed burlap bags, after deducting the weight of the bag, there are more than 400 catties!

There are only more than 100 sheep in the sheep baby's family, where can there be so much wool?

Xu Erniang glanced at the father of the sheep baby, and the honest middle-aged man's heart suddenly jumped.

Xu Yue also skimmed over and calculated in front of the father and son: "A few days ago, I sheared fifteen sheep with the sheep baby on the hillside, and produced almost five catties of wool. ”

"Because we are not skilled, the shearing is also messy, so out of less, generally a sheep can lose more than two catties to five catties, our sheep is small, less wool, even if a sheep out of three catties, your family still has a hundred sheep, the remaining wool is up to 300 catties, what is the matter with this extra 100 catties?"

She didn't ask, just asked gently, but it made the father and son change their faces together.

Xu Yue raised her eyes and swept over lightly, the sheep baby who had been buried in her head couldn't stand such a gaze, and explained anxiously:

"As soon as the people in the village heard that my wool could be sold for money, they had to ask Daddy to bring their wool over, and I told them that you don't want so much wool, but they said that you are a little girl who doesn't know how much wool a sheep produces, so they want me to coax you to say that these are all ...... from my sheep."

"Everyone is having a hard time, my father is soft-hearted, so he brought everyone's wool, Xu Youniang, don't be angry, if you don't want so much, my father and I will pull back and return the wool to everyone!"

Zhao Er didn't expect the little girl to be so good at arithmetic, he knew that he couldn't be fooled, and he had never done such a thing before, so he felt ashamed, and he was also busy:

"I'll give you back the more, but my family, girl, can you still take it?"

His family cut 200 catties and 400 yuan, which can buy a stone of grain, and the children in the family are looking forward to this money and are ready to cook a porridge to eat.

If Xu Yue was angry because of this, Zhao Er thought about the lost eyes of the children at home, and his eyes were red with sadness.

Xu Erniang listened to the words of the father and son, and was so angry that she wanted to throw their wool out of the door with the car.

Dare to coax her Serena's sister, I really don't know how to write dead words!

Xu Dalang also blackened his face, but Xu Yue didn't have a seizure, he could only endure it.

Xu Yue looked at the pleading eyes of the father and son, sighed, and called the sister who was about to throw the car, and asked the father and son to sift out the excess.

"You can take as much as you want, and you can take back the excess." Xu Yue said as she took out two horses of hemp worth 400 yuan and handed them to the sheep baby.

The young man looked at her indifferent expression, and was stunned for a long time before taking the cloth over.

"Let's go!" Xu Erniang came to the gate and made a posture of driving people away.

The father and son took the money, but they were not happy at all, thanked them a few times, pushed the wheelbarrow, and left with mixed feelings.

Xu Erniang snorted and was about to close the door, but Xu Yue walked out.

Looking at that posture, it seems to be going out.

"You're not going to be soft-hearted again, are you?" Xu Erniang hated the education of iron and steel: "This kind of thing can't be connived at, otherwise they will really treat you as a wronged person in the future and create countless troubles for you." ”

"Hey, Xu Youniang, did you hear that!"

couldn't wait for Xu Yue's answer, seeing that she was going to go out, Xu Erniang quit and wanted to arrest Xu Yue back.

Xu Yue seemed to have eyes behind her back, and she dodged as soon as she moved her feet, and Xu Erniang grabbed the air.

Xu Yue turned her head and winked at her: "Sister, aren't you curious about who they are?" Follow along and see how these people react. ”

Xu Erniang was stunned, and the soul of gossip suddenly opened, "Let's go, take a look!" ”
