Chapter 68 Cartography

Although I didn't expect my friend Lao Liu to bring guests over, I still have to give some face, after all, the person who can let him bring over has a good personality in all aspects.

Grandpa Lin didn't ink either, reached out and took a few pieces of skin on the wall and handed them over, letting her choose. There is an introduction to what kind of animal those skins are and how to use them.

In the end, Ye Xuanxuan picked out cowhides, and she didn't want those pigskins and sheepskins.

After asking the price, Ye Xuanxuan also jumped in her heart, she didn't expect the price of a leather of about half a meter to be so high!

But for her now, she is naturally affordable, and the acquaintance of Grandpa Lin and Grandpa Liu, because of the warm relationship, did not ask for a high price, but just added a little running fee to the capital.

A piece of yellow cowhide half a meter long and wide costs 400 yuan. This price is indeed not high, but if you just say that the price of buying a sheep does not seem to be expensive, if it is ordinary people, I am afraid that they will not buy it! Ye Xuanxuan didn't think much about it, mainly because she can use this now!

After paying the money happily, the four of them went out. Ye Xuanxuan still needed to buy some tools, so she asked Grandpa Liu to go back to the car shop first, and they would go back after they finished shopping.

The third sister and brother went to find a blacksmith shop again, and Ye Xuanxuan found some small tools in the blacksmith shop, the price was cheap, only a few dozen yuan. Some tiny needles, and some other iron tools.

Ye Xuanxuan is going to use these to draw maps, she has not done these before, but she once saw the introduction in the book, it is said that these leather maps are scalded or something.

I'm not sure, but I have to try, right?

After shopping, Ye Xuanxuan went to the place where she had bought lo-mei before, bought half a braised chicken, and also bought some braised pig ears. In fact, she misses braised beef or something, but she has never seen a beef seller in this era! There are only a few people who can have cattle to plow the land, and there is no nature to eat beef, and I don't know if this Dakang Dynasty restricts people from eating beef! In ancient China, it was said that there were restrictions, because the ox was an important agricultural tool, and it was inseparable from ploughing. Moreover, all cattle are registered, and only cattle that are injured or die of illness can be dealt with at home, and the state seems to have to investigate and deal with them.

Ye Baoer also wanted to eat lo-mei, and her eyes were full of joy when she saw Ye Xuanxuan buy lo-mei. Although Ye Erya felt that it was a little expensive, she didn't say anything.

The three of them rushed back, and there were many selling buns or snacks on the roadside. After eating the steamed buns here, Ye Xuanxuan walked to the baked cake shop without thinking about it and asked for ten baked cakes. There is an oiled paper bag for every two packs, and the store is also quick to move.

The yakiniku are grilled over a wood fire, and the white flour pancakes are smeared with a little coarse salt and chopped green onions, and placed directly in a dedicated earthen oven.

Ten baked cakes are not expensive, only a penny each, and they are not small, two for one person are enough to eat.

put the food into the back basket, Ye Xuanxuan pulled Ye Erya and Ye Bao'er back together.

When they arrived at the dealership, the four of them went home in an ox cart, still heading down the path.

On the way, Ye Xuanxuan took out two packets of baked cakes and divided them into three. This is for grandpa. I took out the money for the car again.

The car drove to the side of the road, which was on the right side of the village and curved from the end of the village to the fork in the town. When not far from the village, Ye Xuanxuan got out of the car on the side of the road and decided to walk back by herself.

took the oil paper bag and copper coins to Grandpa Liu, and Ye Xuanxuan said that she would give Grandpa Liu a certain amount of monthly money every month from next month. Grandpa Liu was stunned for Ye Xuanxuan's statement, and then nodded with a smile, giving once a month is almost the same as giving one day a day. He didn't care about this, but he didn't know that this was the payment method that Ye Xuanxuan changed in order to give more money.

The three sisters and brothers supported each other and walked towards the village, and now it is estimated that it will only be around one or two o'clock in the afternoon! The sun was in the sky, just after the end of the day.

met a few playful little boys on the way, although she heard them wantonly shouting lame or something, Ye Xuanxuan didn't take it seriously.

Children are the most childlike, and they are also the easiest to listen to and say what they see, if they care, they will be angry sooner or later. However, Ye Erya's face on the side changed, and Ye Baoer also tried her best to endure it without having a seizure. Ye Xuanxuan saw that her sister and younger brother did not run recklessly to fight with others, and she was very relieved, this was much better than before.

"Let's go home quickly!" Ye Xuanxuan said urgically, and some people approached Ye Bao'er and whispered: "Let's eat braised chicken when we go home." After speaking, he looked at Ye Bao'er with a smile on his face.

Although Ye Baoer wanted to eat braised chicken very much, compared to the grievances suffered by her sister, Ye Baoer couldn't be happy. But in order to reassure his eldest sister, he also lowered his head and nodded his little head.

The original good mood was worn out by the children on the road, in order to let Ye Baoer and Ye Erya put it down, Ye Xuanxuan took out the braised chicken and baked cakes, and motioned for them to eat quickly. After thinking about it again, he explained: "Sister is not afraid of what others say, and she doesn't care what they say, so don't take it to heart." After speaking, looking at her sister and younger brother who were still sullen and didn't start eating, Ye Xuanxuan sighed.

"Think about it, if you are angry when someone says this, isn't my sister going to be angry? Besides, those kids were just unintentional. They still don't understand that those words are hurtful, so don't take them to heart. My sister has always felt in her heart that as long as she has a clear conscience in life and work, it is not a problem for her sister to have an ugly face or a disability. I don't care what people think of me, I just want to be myself, a true me. As he spoke, he took the pancake and ate it.

As soon as Ye Erya heard these words, her nose suddenly became sore, and she took the baked cake with red eyes and handed it to Ye Bao'er, who was still a little ignorant.

Seeing that the two of them were eating, Ye Xuanxuan also understood that they understood their thoughts this time!

Looking at the two small ones who bowed their heads to eat the baked cakes, Ye Xuanxuan pulled the only chicken leg and handed it to Ye Bao'er, telling him to finish eating.

He ripped off a few pieces of chicken and put them on the oiled paper bag for Ye Erya to eat too, so the three sisters and brothers finished eating with tangled hearts.

Although they were not hungry, they turned their grief into strength, and the three of them ate half of the roast chicken, and the three of them ate only one of the roast cakes and were full. The rest of the night continues.

The three of them were a little supportive, Ye Xuanxuan asked Ye Erya and Ye Bao'er to eat in the courtyard, and she opened the door of the study and went in.

He took out the cowhide in the basket, took out the tools, and found the oil lamp at home and began to make it.

It's just that iron needles and thicker wires are used, and they start to burn after burning, but this kind of fine work is very elegant.
