Chapter 134: Who's Going, Wool
As soon as the news of the conscription came out, the atmosphere in the village was extremely tense.
Although this matter of conscription has to come once a year, no one in the village will say that this kind of hard-working and life-threatening thing will get used to it after a few more times.
No matter which time they came, everyone's mood was quite bad.
"Oh my God, sister-in-law, you're so lucky this time!"
That afternoon, Wei Meili and Miao were helping to make fine arrowroot cloth at Widow Chen's house.
When talking about this topic, Widow Chen didn't know how envious she was when she looked at Miao and Wei Meimei.
"I always feel that the luck of the two sisters-in-law has improved a lot after they separated, and these five taels of silver are not a few."
When Widow Chen learned that both of them were going to pay money to redeem the election, she didn't know for a while whether to admire the courage of the two families or whether their family was really lucky.
In just a few months, he happened to have five taels of silver on his body to withstand this conscription.
"It's not that you don't know what kind of life our two families have lived before they have not separated, and after dividing the family, there is only that bit of family property, and the past few months have been busy all day long, and the little silver that has been accumulated with great difficulty is enough to choke this body.
How can you afford to go to the swaying again to consume? ”
Wei Meili said this to help the Miao family.
Their family has systematic help, and they have all gotten healthy bodies, but Miao and Mei Sanma saw that although under the blessing of the heroine, the food has improved a lot, and their spirit has increased.
But the foundation is still poor.
Miao also cooked loquat leaf and pear soup at home yesterday, saying that Mei Sanma went out these days, as if he was sleeping outside in the open air, and he had a cold at night, and he still had some cough these days.
At this point, thinking that he couldn't see the slightest problem with his own dragon spirit and tiger, and Mei Youqian, who had to cook two bowls of rice all of a sudden, Wei Meili didn't know what to say for a while.
"Well, people are stronger than anything else."
After Miao said that, Widow Chen suddenly remembered the reason why her man, who died early, worked so hard to pull goods and risked walking so far.
Isn't it just so that I can earn more money that year?
Her mother-in-law was not in good health that year, and not long after the lock was born, he just wanted to earn more money, and if there was a forced labor, he could accompany the family at home when he arrived at that year.
Outcome......
Seeing that Widow Chen's weaving movements suddenly slowed down, and people stopped talking, Wei Meili hurriedly walked to the side of the loom and said, "This time the fine kudzu cloth, sister, you did a really good job, very beautiful!" ”
"That's also the help of the two sisters-in-law, I never knew that kudzu vine could weave such a fine and soft material, and it is excellent to make a dress when it is hot."
"Hey, it's better to weave cloth with your hand!" Wei Meili and Widow Chen complimented each other, "By the way, your mother-in-law has been in good health recently, and she hasn't gone out to make trouble anymore?" ”
"No, she's been a little more sober lately than she was the other day. It is estimated that it is because she is pregnant, and Lilac does not come over often, but she is fine. ”
Widow Chen was still angry with Lilac when she thought of her mother-in-law being instigated by Lilac some time ago.
However, thinking of Lilac and their separation because of Uncle Wu, and the new house was built after a while, after she moved away, Widow Chen's mood was happy again~
The other daughters-in-law of Uncle Wu's family are all Shuangli people, and they are not too much to get along with the oral honey sword of Lilac.
"Third Uncle Wu's family has split up, so isn't there a few more people in their family this time?"
In the past, the four sons of Uncle Wu's family, even if one family went to one, it would only take four years to rotate, and Ding Xiang's husband was still young before, so the three sons were rotated before.
As a result, this is good, as soon as the family is separated, I met the conscription.
"Well, in fact, Uncle Wu's first three sons are not young, and their own sons are also older, so there is no problem with the matter of conscription.
Besides, they were all out of the family, and it was good for a few people in the family to help each other when they went out.
is also Lilac and her man, although after the separation, because Lilac and her man are young, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu live with their family and help Lilac them.
However, the third uncle has reached the age where he does not need to be forced into labor, and unless they take out five taels of silver, this forced labor will be a lilac man. ”
Speaking of which, Widow Chen somewhat smacked of schadenfreude.
"By the way, I heard that Lilac and their family seem to have built the house behind your in-laws' house after they separated!"
"Really?"
"Speaking of which, I remember that Lilac and your sister-in-law belong to the same village."
"Huh? What a coincidence. ”
Wei Meili didn't know that there was such a thing, but speaking of which, Wei Meili remembered that the two of them had split up, so what was the plan for the Lao Mei family to serve.
"My father-in-law is old enough to serve in conscription, but he is still old in general. But what he hurts the most is that he loves his eldest son and younger son, and he doesn't want them to suffer. ”
"Huh? Could it be that your eldest uncle does not serve in conscription? Widow Chen was surprised, "Let your father-in-law go, that will definitely be poked in the back!" raised a few children so big, and when they are old, they don't enjoy any blessings, what is more? ”
Wei Meili smiled, noncommittal.
Not blessed?
Their old Mei family doesn't know how long they have enjoyed the blessings of two bedrooms and three bedrooms, and now they just want to take back these blessings that they borrowed back in advance!
This time without the two of them, she just wanted to see a joke, should Mei Dahu go or Old Man Mei go?
Although everyone thinks it should be Mei Dahu, but what if?
Wei Meili smiled and said, "Maybe our father still has silver~"
Widow Chen didn't dare to answer these words immediately, and if she said it further, wouldn't it mean that Old Man Mei had hidden his property when he broke up?
It is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs.
Widow Chen also smiled and didn't say much.
***
Mei Berry came back from the mountains and saw that there was no one at home, so he went directly into the house, took out a small ball of wool from the system and played with it carefully for a long time.
Mei Berry doesn't know what Mei You found out about Old Man Mei?
But just looking at the 50 pounds of wool, Mei Berry also estimated in her heart that the heroine had found a big one.
It's just that she was in the mountains, and when Mei Berry asked, Mei You didn't answer immediately, she only said to wait a little longer, and tell her after she thoroughly investigated.
This kind of gossip shared by others to the halfway point, and the feeling of hanging herself up and down really made her heart like 10,000 fat tigers scratching her heart.
Actually, I don't blame Mei You for not telling Mei Berry.
Mei You really didn't investigate much, and she didn't know where to say it for a while.
Mei You: Then let's not talk about it.
Although Mei You didn't answer Mei Berry's doubts positively, Mei Berry will push backwards!
Except for the time when their family was busy selling tea before, she and Mei You didn't meet, and they could basically see each other in the morning and evening.
If they really found out that Old Man Mei had a problem during their meeting, Mei You would definitely tell him.
The biggest possibility is that Mei You discovered something when their family was busy with all fours some time ago.
Mei Berry carefully thought back to Mei You's usual activity trajectory, thinking about what circumstances would make Mei You find out that something was wrong with Old Man Mei?
While thinking, Plum Berry repeatedly touched the yarn with both hands, and felt that something was wrong when he touched Plum Berry.
"Huh?"
Plum berry looked down at the camel-colored woolen ball, the feel was very rough, and when she pulled it hard, it broke very crisply.
Not as tough and soft as later generations.
If you knit a sweater, you can't wear it closely, and you will be panicked.
And it's not very elastic.
If you just make a plum berry like a knit or a scarf, it's acceptable.
[Why is this wool thread so rough?] It's not as good as your previous system boutique level~]
Sensing that the quality of the yarn was not good, Meiberry reacted with the system.
[This bundle of yarn is comprehensively produced according to the technical production level of this era. 】
The meaning of the phrase system is simpler: this yarn can be made if you work hard in this era.
[So no one can make it yet, right?] 】
A hint of cunning flashed in Plum Berry's eyes, as if she realized the intention of the system.
[Is this thing my "research" mine?] Or does the heroine also have a famous scene in this area in the later stage, and I want to play the auxiliary kind again? 】
Plum Berry hadn't thought too far ahead, and she needed to make sure she had a head on this wool now.
[The original book did not have a related famous scene.] 】
Hearing this, Meiberry immediately let out a lewd laugh.
She asked the system: [How much do you know about this yarn process? Is there any recipe and process for making wool thread? It's better like soap. 】
[Host, you can do your own research.] The system seriously rejected the plum berry, [I gave the finished product, what else do you want? 】
Plum Berry: ?
What's your perfunctory tone?
You can't treat it differently because you're not the protagonist, right?
[What happened to the finished product?] The finished product is not omnipotent, you gave the finished product, at best, it is my own use, and even someone with a heart has seen this thing, I need to find a way to explain. 】
Plum Berry refuted the system's remarks that it was okay to give her a finished product, but as soon as she said this, Plum Berry herself realized a problem-
Even if her own family didn't use it to make money, but if the sweater or something appeared, unless she could hide it completely, she still needed a reason to explain it in the end.
Explain to those who are interested, this wool thread will have to appear sooner or later.
It's just a matter of time and how involved she is throughout the process.
Thinking of this, Mei Berry's eyes condensed slightly.
[System, do you think that my money is too easy to earn, so you set these difficulties for me? ] 】
System: [......]
Mei Berry: The system is so vicious, it stumbles on my way to making money!
System: Perhaps, I'm just trying to unify it with the final reward seeded cotton?
Berry: Shouldn't you reward me with a few hairy sheep? Or wool with mutton.
System:......?
