A lucky wife born again from a farm family

Shang Xiucai did not answer this. After all, Cui was a woman. He was a man and it was not easy for him to talk about a woman.

Mrs. Jiang took out Gu Jinxiu's embroidery and spread it out for Shang Xiucai to see: "My lord, look at this picture."

Shang Xiucai looked at the embroidered picture and saw more than a dozen figures embroidered on the compass-sized double-layered Gebu. The people in the picture were either cutting down trees to build straw sheds, making fires for cooking, or walking in the mountains. Looking for food and water, every character is lifelike, as if they are living on cloth.

Shang Xiucai was a little surprised: "This picture is really vividly embroidered."

Although the embroidery is made on cheap Gebu, the color of the embroidery thread used is also very simple, just four colors: gray, white, black and blue. However, because of the exquisite embroidery skills, it does not make people think that the embroidery is cheap, but adds a simple and heavy feel. feel.

Ms. Jiang was also very satisfied with this piece of embroidery and said: "This was embroidered by Xiaoyu's eldest sister. At the beginning, I simply thought that the embroidery sister was just superb in embroidery. But after thinking about it on the way back, I realized The embroidery method of this embroidery is quite similar to Luo embroidery.”

Luo embroidery is one of the four major embroideries. It is famous for being good at embroidering figures and scenes. The figures and scenes embroidered by Luo embroidery are all very vivid. In the previous dynasty, it was classified as palace embroidery. It was a tribute and was only circulated in the palace. Among the high-ranking officials and nobles, there are very few on the market, and it can be said to be hard to find.

It was only in Dachu that Luo embroidery spread among the people.

If this embroidery is really Luo embroidery, it would be worth a lot.

Shang Xiucai frowned when he heard this. After a while, he said to Ms. Jiang, "Maybe it's just a similarity. You don't have to take it to heart. We just have to deal with the Gu family sincerely."

Shang Xiucai didn't want to explore too much.

Mrs. Jiang understood what Shang Xiucai meant, nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, I know, and I won't ask any questions."

Regardless of Cui's origins, she is just a peasant woman now. Their family only gets along with the Gu family to repay their kindness and does not want to dig up Cui's past secrets.

Early the next morning, Lao Luo and Ah Jiu each drove a mule cart toward the Gu family in Dafeng Village.

Due to the weight of the stone, it took a full hour for the two mule carts to arrive at Dafeng Village and stop in front of the Gu family's courtyard.

Ah Jiu raised his voice and shouted: "Uncle Gu family, we have brought the stone mill. Take a look, where should we put it?"

The third grandfather followed Gu Dagui and his wife and Gu Damu and his wife out of the stall. Gu Jinli didn't go today, so he followed Gu Dashan to greet him. He came to the back of the mule cart and saw that there were two stone mills, one big and one small, in the mule cart. surprised.

Gu Dashan said: "Didn't you say one? Why did you send two?"

Ah Jiu smiled and said: "There were originally two stone mills in the old house, one big and one small, which are convenient to use. Look, where should I put these stone mills?"

The yard of Gu Jinli's house was full of wooden boxes filled with tofu, and there was no room to put two stone mills. Gu Jinli thought for a while and said, "Take the big one to Luo's house, and keep the small one and put it outside the kitchen door."

The large stone mill was over half a meter in diameter, which was too big, but the small stone mill was only over a foot in diameter, which was very suitable for home use, so I kept it.

"Okay, let's move the small stone mill in for you first." Ah Jiu called Lao Luo, and the two of them tied the small stone mill with thick ropes, carried it on two poles, and carried it outside the Gu family's kitchen door for the Gu family to put away. good.

Gu Dashan had already run to Luo's house and called Luo's father and Uncle Tian who were grinding beans.

The Luo family father and son, the Tian family father and son, including Qin Sanlang all came.

This big stone mill was so heavy that five or six men could not lift it.

Lao Luo's driving skills were good, and he said to the men of the house: "I'll drive the car into the yard first, and then take out the stone mill after entering the yard."

"Hey." Several men responded, making way for Lao Luo to lead the mule cart into the Luo family's yard.

Their yards are very large, with front yards and backyards, each covering about half an acre.

Lao Luo drove the mule cart into the front yard and stopped in the middle of the yard.

Luo's father and others came over and started moving the stone mill.

The stone mill is divided into three parts: the chassis and the upper and lower grinding fans. Qin Sanlang was only fourteen years old, but he was extremely strong. He could lift the half-meter-long grinding fan out of the mule cart by himself, and with a bang, the grinding fan stood on the ground. , holding the grinding fan by himself, rolled the grinding fan to the left side of the yard.

Luo's father was injured when he was young, but he did not dare to do what Qin Sanlang did. Instead, he and Luo Wu carried down another piece of the grinding fan. The father and son rolled the grinding fan and placed it on the left side of the yard.

The remaining chassis was carried by Uncle Tian and his son, Gu Dashan and his son, with wooden sticks as big as fists, to the left side of the yard, and placed on a large buried stone.

Immediately afterwards, the Luo family father and son placed the two grinding fans on the chassis and installed them, and the stone grinding was finished.

After being so busy, several members of the family were sweating all over.

Seeing that the stone mill had been moved, Ah Jiu added, "There are still things that haven't been moved. Let's make another trip."

With that said, he and Lao Luo turned around and left.

Gu Dashan caught up and asked, "Aren't there only two stone mills? Why are there still things?"

But Ah Jiu and Lao Luo had already driven away in a mule cart and did not reply to his words.

Gu Dashan sighed and muttered: "I don't know what else to pull?"

Gu Dexing knew that the servants from Shang Xiucai's family were coming, so he rushed over in a hurry. He didn't see the servants from Shang Xiucai's family, so he asked Gu Dashan: "Uncle Dashan, where are the servants from Shang Xiucai's family?"

Gu Dashan said: "Just left."

"Leaving?" Gu Dexing said anxiously: "Why did they leave so quickly? Why didn't you stop them?"

Gu Jinli glanced at Gu Dexing and said, "It took a full two-quarters of an hour to move this stone mill. It's ridiculous for you to blame others for being late."

If the young master had come earlier, he would have met people.

Gu Dexing's face turned red and he was so ashamed by Gu Jinli's words.

Gu Dashan had a good temper. Seeing him like this, he smiled and said, "Brother Xing, don't worry, Ajiu and the others will come back later."

When Gu Dexing heard this, his eyes lit up: "Really?"

Gu Dashan nodded: "Really, he said he still has something to deliver."

Gu Dexing was very happy and did not go home again. Instead, he stayed at Luo's house and waited for more than an hour before Ah Jiu and Lao Luo arrived.

Lao Luo and Ah Jiu moved a lot of things this time, including tables, chairs, benches, two stone hammers, and two large iron plates.

As soon as Gu Jinli saw these two iron plates, he knew that they were specially made for their family by Shang Xiucai.

No one in Dachu uses iron plates to make things, so their family only uses iron plates to make pan-fried five-spice tofu, but she didn't refuse, let alone tell the truth.

When Gu Dashan saw these two iron plates, he knew that the iron plates were expensive and didn't want to accept them. However, Ah Jiu's sharp tongue soon convinced Gu Dashan to accept the iron plates.

Gu Dexing knew that Ah Jiu and the others were here again, so he hurried to Gu's house and asked Ah Jiu, "Shang Xiucai has read the article I wrote. Did he say anything?"

Gu Dexing was frightened to death all the way on the run, especially after the murders by evil people. After settling down, he did not dare to go out for a while. However, after being confused for such a long time, he finally found something he wanted to do, and that was Study to test your fame!

This is what he has been doing since he was a child. Apart from this, he can't do anything else, and he doesn't want to learn other jobs. He hates chopping wood and grinding beans. His hands are used for writing. It's not used to do these rough jobs.
