My aunt's house is in the east of the village, and it's time to walk a pillar of incense.

As soon as they arrived at the door, there was a dog barking in the courtyard

"Wangwang" screamed.

"Xiao Huang, stop screaming." A girl's coquettish scolding.

A scolding was followed by the sound of footsteps.

"Who?"

"Second cousin, it's me! Open the door for me. Han Yun said.

"Erya! Come in, why are you free to come to my house today? ”

Because the two are the same age, and the second cousin has been Han Yun for more than ten days, so the two talk more casually.

"Cousin, is my sister-in-law at home? I have something to discuss with her. Han Yun said.

"Oops! The old niece is here? Zhang Shulian came back from the backyard with a dustpan of mung bean pods.

My aunt and uncle are both diligent people, and there is wasteland behind their house, which has also been reclaimed by them over the years, and it is easy to manage and grow some vegetables close to home.

"Little aunt, it's like this, the village has started to make sugar today, and there are some selected sugar-free Shu Li rods.

I thought it was a pity that those Shuli poles were thrown away to burn the fire, so I thought of a way, that is, to use Shuli poles to weave mats and arrow poles to cover curtains.

I drew the drawings and wanted you to learn them, so that you could earn some pocket money if you wanted to do it yourself or go to work in the village. Han Yun handed over a stack of drawings in his hand.

Zhang Shulian wiped her hands on the apron, took a look, and the mat pattern on the drawing was exquisite, and she could understand it at a glance.

Surprise asked, "All this is for me?" Do you know? ”

"I haven't told my grandmother yet, besides, can my grandmother still be to her daughter?"

"Hahaha...... You girl! Zhang Shulian was amused by her niece.

"Aunt, this thing can't just look at the drawings, if you want to memorize it, you have to actually operate it and practice a lot to make it perfect." Han Yun said.

"Mother, isn't our backyard a bit of a Shu Li pole, it just so happens that my cousin is here, why don't you try it now?" Second cousin Ma Jingdao.

The mothers hit it off and did what they said.

Hold a few bundles of Shuli poles, peel off the leaves, and expose the straw, which is knotted and has protruding knots, and should be repaired smooth with a knife.

Then, use a knife to split the Shuli rod, which is generally split in half, which is also easier to get, and you can split it along one end.

It was too troublesome to chop with a knife, Han Yun remembered that his grandfather in his previous life had a knife for splitting, which was a piece of wood that was repaired into a cross, and a cross blade was installed at one end, so that four petals could be produced at one time, and he had to study it when he had time.

The split Shuli rod should be soaked in water, so that the "gourd" under the skin is easy to scrape off, and the strip is soft and easier to weave.

After soaking, scrape the straw, press the stalk into stalks with a wooden knife, and pull hard, the stalks will be crossed out, and the rest is the skin.

This requires some skill and a degree of retraction, otherwise, if the strength is not enough, it will not be clean, and it will break if the force is too strong.

After these bundles of straw were finished, the mother also had large and small wounds on her hands, and the two girls who were in pain screamed.

Especially Han Yun, she has never done this kind of work in her two lives!

It's okay to work, but after a little rest and a while, it's relieved, after all, it's a peasant child, and it's solid.

I just can't stand it with my hands, if only I had a pair of gloves.

"Aunt, this can't be done!

You have to make a few pairs of gloves and sew a glove with fingers in the cloth, so that you will not be afraid of being cut when you work with gloves, and you can work faster. ”

"Erya's method is good, anyway, it will take a while to soak the strips, let's go into the house and sew two." Zhang Shulian's eyes lit up when she heard what her niece said, and she felt that this method was good, and it was also good to make two pairs of work belts for men in the workshop, which not only kept warm but also protected her hands from injury.

My aunt and cousin's needlework are very good, and they can do it quickly, but Han Yun is a little weak, she has never learned needlework, and she sews big needles and small threads.

Zhang Shulian couldn't stand it anymore, "Hey, my mother! Hurry up and put it there, and I'll sew it for you later. ”
