022: Can't turn over Wuzhi Mountain (two watches)
Chang Xi first gave everyone a reassuring look, then gently pushed away Li's hand that was holding her, and pulled her to sit on the chair, "Why are you here?"
"If we don't come, won't you even go home?" Chang Dadou complained on the side.
Li Shi also said, "That's right, if you don't come, how do we know what kind of life you're living outside? Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, we parents only hope for your well."
"Third sister, we are all looking forward to your coming home." Chang Kui also hurriedly said a word to increase his sense of existence.
Hearing the words of this family of three, Chang Xi wanted to laugh, if he didn't know their character, maybe he would really be deceived by this hypocrisy.
"You really blame me," she smiled bitterly, "Da Lang died by mistake, how dare you report the funeral to his mother's family according to the number of etiquette?" I'm still covered in linen, how can I bring bad luck back to my parents' house? If you collide with someone in the family who has three long and two short, isn't it mine?"
As soon as these words came out, it was reasonable, Chang Dadou and Li glanced at each other, they wanted to play the role of a loving father and mother to strike first, but now they were restrained by the three daughters' words, which made them quite unhappy, but they didn't dare to really show it on their faces, after all, those strong men were still standing there.
"I see, but we didn't think it through." Chang Dadou said with a sneering face, if it was before, he would have slapped these three girls a long time ago, and if he was not convinced, he would have been convinced, anyway, it was not the first time he had done it.
Li Shi also smiled stupidly, "Da Lang is short-lived, let's not mention him." Then he affectionately pulled Chang Xi and asked in a low voice, "This workshop is yours, I heard people in the city say so......
"How did this come to be mine?" Chang Xi's eyes widened and said, "The water in here is deep, don't talk nonsense, you just said the words from the city, so how can you take it seriously?" In short, I just do what I am told, but I can't be the master of this workshop......" In other words, don't try to occupy a place in this workshop, don't think about it.
When Chang Dadou heard this, the majesty that had been shaking suddenly leaked a little, but he still said unwillingly, "Why can't you call the shots? I heard that you have also joined the Yiyang Chamber of Commerce, and even the emperor of the capital has asked you to run this unique business......
"Shhhhhh Chang Xi raised his index finger and whispered to his lips, then looked out of the door uneasily, and saw that success had scared the black-hearted couple, so he said, "How can you mention the emperor so boldly, I tell you, this can't be said casually, it's going to lose your head......
"What? Lose your head?" Chang Dadou and Li both exclaimed in surprise, their faces full of disbelief.
Chang Xi sighed, "You have to take my words to heart, otherwise I won't be able to save you if something happens."
Chang Dadou and Li glanced at each other again, a little scared in their hearts, but they were reluctant to leave, even if their daughter said that she couldn't call the shots, but she was living a good life after all, so how could she not honor them?
The unwilling husband and wife don't want to go home, they have to stay anyway, and after a long time, they will know whether this girl is true or false, and they can't trust her mouth now.
"San'e, I have walked a long way with your father and your brother to come, this trip is not easy, and now I am still tired, you see why don't we rest first, and when we have earned enough energy, we will talk about it well...... Li said deliberately.
"Of course." Chang Xi said, and then said with an embarrassed face, "Since I left the mansion, the Xu family's house has also been taken back by the patriarch, I have been living in the house behind the workshop recently, but there is still construction there, there are not so many empty houses to live in, and it is far away from the city, if this is the case, I will arrange for you to live in a family in the nearest village near here, and live in transition first, you don't have to worry about food or anything, I will arrange it."
Chang Dadou was not very satisfied with this arrangement, but he couldn't find anything to object, after all, what the three daughters said was reasonable, and she really didn't have a good place to live as a widow, so when she thought about it, no matter how dissatisfied she was, she had to agree first.
Li doesn't care too much, as long as she can live, and she doesn't need to pay for it, she just lives there.
Seeing that the black-hearted couple had unified their opinions, Chang Xi immediately asked the tiger girl to send them there
In the accommodation arranged by Aunt Osmanthus, Hu Niu could only endure her disgust for Chang Dadou and his wife, and led people over with a smirk.
Chang Dadou put on the majesty of the old lady, walked forward with his hands behind his back, Li saw that the food on the table had not been touched much, these were all high-quality pastries, so he stuffed some of the pastries on the table into his son's hands, and then stuffed the rest into the bag himself, in short, what he could take would not be left.
Chang Kui proudly ate and walked away, and at this time, he was also like his father with the rich young master's money.
The people present looked at the style of this family of three, and they couldn't help but secretly disdain, no matter how they looked at Chang Niangzi, they didn't look like people from his family.
Chang Xi didn't give it away in person, but hid on the grounds that he was busy with work, Chang Dadou and Li didn't care, but urged her to hurry up and hurry up first, don't lose the errand Yunyun, obviously a little bit believed what Chang Xi said before, after all, in their hearts, they deeply believed that Chang Xi didn't have that much ability.
Finally spent this family, if it weren't for the strict regulations of the Daewoo Dynasty on filial piety, as well as the consideration of her reputation, she really couldn't bear to be a snake with them, and she would have beaten them to death with a single shot, which would have saved a lot of trouble.
Xiao Tao and Dong Li saw Chang Xi being wronged so much, their eyes were red, but they also knew in their hearts that Chang Niangzi was right to deal with it like this, if they used a tough attitude and they sued the government, it would be called trouble, if their reputation was ruined, someone would definitely make a big fuss about this, but they were afraid that they would not even be able to keep the tea brick workshop, which would outweigh the losses.
"Don't think about it so much, anyway, the pit is dug and just wait for them to jump into it." Chang Xi comforted the two daughters.
Xiao Tao and Dong Li turned their anger into motivation and worked hard to do the things at hand to share Chang Xi's worries.
What happened here, Xie Jin's side quickly received the wind, he had not seen Chang Dadou and the Li couple, and of course he didn't plan to meet, the couple could marry their daughter to someone like Xu Dalang, naturally they were not good people, but he was still worried that Chang Xi would be affected by this and be depressed.
So, when Chang Xi got off work, he saw Xie Jin waiting for her under the porch outside with his hands behind his back, and his eyes were full of surprise, "Why are you here?"
Although the movements were not intimate, her tone was a little brisk, which showed that her mood was not affected by the arrival of the couple.
"I'm coming to you for dinner."
"Then try the big pot of rice made by our chef, it tastes good."
Chang Xi led him to the canteen, the facilities of the workshop are gradually improving, the canteen is divided into male and female areas, but there are also small boxes for men and women, she and Xie Jin are sitting in a small box by the window at this time.
However, Chang Xi still instructed the cook to make two other small stir-fries, and did not really let Xie Jinquan eat a big pot of rice.
Looking at the unrefined food in front of him, Xie Jin was not as picky as before, but ate it with a chopstick, just like Chang Xi said, the taste was okay, and he would not be embarrassed when he took the second bite.
"I know why you're here, don't worry, I can cope with the current emergency, and their husband and wife can't climb my Five Finger Mountain."
"I'm sure you can handle it, but if you can use my place, you must say it." Xie Jin was very solemn and authentic.
He has always believed in Chang Xi's ability to handle things, but if a woman is too independent and capable, what else do you want a man to do?
Lately he has been plagued by this idea, and has always felt that he seems superfluous to her, and without him, she can probably do it if she can legalize the tea bricks.
Looking at Xie Jin's burning gaze, she smiled, "Xie Jiuye, don't worry, if I can use you, I will definitely not be polite."
Seeing that she didn't look like she was saying kind words, Xie Jin stopped worrying about this question and began to talk about the construction of improved looms.
The skilled craftsman had already arrived at the annex, and after reading the drawings, he said that things could be made.
"I think if I wait another ten days and a half, I guess I will be able to see the finished product."
Although Chang Xi had never seen that skilled craftsman, the ancient craftsmen all had some real skills, so his eyes were full of anticipation, "It just so happened that the third master Lin sent someone to send me a letter before, saying that the steam power he studied has made great progress, and let me come over to visit
Let's take a look."
Although Lin Yuqi has been doing research in other hospitals, Xie Jin still avoided suspicion and didn't ask much, after all, this is the cooperation between Chang Xi and Lin Yuqi, and he doesn't want people to misunderstand.
"That's a good idea, but this steam power can also be used on a textile machine?" He still didn't quite understand the relationship between the two, so he immediately asked the doubts in his heart.
Chang Xi knew that they must not understand what the people of this era were talking about the industrial revolution, after all, this was epoch-making progress, so she smiled and said, "That's for sure, if Lin Sanye's steam power can really be developed, we will be at the forefront of the times."
She was so sure that she was charming, but Xie Jin was not a person who would be easily fascinated by beauty, so she immediately asked a sharp question, "Why are you so determined? Sometimes I really can't understand what you're thinking, because no one has ever seen something before."
Chang Xi was stunned, and quickly carried out self-reflection in his heart, he had to be extra careful in what he said and acted in the future, don't think that people in this era are easy to fool without knowledge, no, after all, no one is stupid, especially the elites of the times, no matter when, they will not fade their elite nature, let alone be easily fooled.
She let out a long sigh on her face, and in Xie Jin's puzzled gaze, she said, "That's because you haven't had an in-depth communication with foreign devils, if you knew what they were studying, you wouldn't say that."
After a pause, she continued to be alarmist, "We may have started later than they did, you know? They told me that they can do a lot of things with steam power, such as using it to mine to emit toxic gases to ensure the safety of miners, so once the technical barriers are broken through and used in production, can you imagine how huge the productivity is? When the time comes, their cloth will be dumped directly into us, and then our silver will be lost in large quantities, and the advantage in trade will not exist......
