home shrew

As for why Mrs. Liu came here, Li Yunjiao is clear in her heart, but now is not the time to settle the lawsuit. She is afraid that getting involved with Mrs. Liu will delay the matter, so she simply ignores it for now. If Mrs. Liu makes something happen Moth, she can open her mouth to complain, otherwise Mrs. Liu will not give up because of her kindness in nurturing her.

She doesn't have that much free time at the moment, and her parents are short-sighted, so a pause counts as a moment.

To put it bluntly, Li Yunjiao didn't take Mrs. Liu seriously at all. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get out of a small person!

Even if Mrs. Xue was dissatisfied, Li Yunjiao had agreed to stay with Mrs. Liu for two days. What else could she say?

Mrs. Liu thought the same way, Mrs. Xue didn't deal with her, so in order not to offend Li Yunjiao, she just tried to hide as much as possible.

At last everything was fine, and Li Yunjiao could settle down and continue to study the task at hand.

Such a group of people worked for more than ten days before they could get the first few ingredients out. They were all ashamed, like soldiers who had just retired from the battlefield.

Li Yunjiao smiled sullenly, the Gao brothers didn't say anything, they were already used to heavy work, so this kind of work is nothing.

But Gong Qingbei, Peng Yunyan, and even Yu Wenxian... are different.

One is more expensive than the other, and they are used to the luxurious life of clothes, hands, food, and mouth. Let them do this, it is a shame.

But as the saying goes, money is hard to buy and I am happy!People like this, can't they?

Even Gong Qingbei, who is slightly obsessed with cleanliness, can deal with dirt??

"Tsk tsk... To tell you the truth, your family's food is the best, um, it's delicious. Little girl Lan'er's cooking skills are getting better and better!"

"Gong Er's words are justified. If I really leave in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat!"

Peng Yunyan nodded in agreement, ate a mouthful of food, and had a tacit drink with Gong Qingbei.

After another seven days, the materials were finally sorted out, and the next step was the second step of melting.

High-temperature melting is mainly divided into two parts, one is the crucible furnace, the glass material is filled in the crucible and heated outside the crucible.There is only one crucible in a small crucible kiln, and there can be as many as 20 crucibles in a large one.Crucible kilns are produced in batches, and now only optical glass and colored glass are produced in crucible kilns.The other is a pool kiln, in which the glass frit is melted.An open flame is heated above the liquid surface of the glass.

Judging from the current situation, the second method is still not possible, so we can only use the first method, the crucible kiln.

After the melting is finished, it is formed, and the molten glass is transformed into a solid product with a fixed shape.Forming must be carried out within a certain temperature range. This is a cooling process. The glass first changes from a viscous liquid state to a plastic state, and then into a brittle solid state.

The last step is annealing.

Glass is subjected to drastic temperature changes and shape changes during forming, which leave thermal stress in the glass.Thermal stress reduces the strength and thermal stability of glass products.If it is directly cooled, it is likely to break by itself during the cooling process or during subsequent storage, transportation and use.

So the last step is crucial, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted.

Peng Yunyan suggested that annealing can be carried out in a brick kiln, and the temperature can be lowered slowly.

This method is feasible, Li Yunjiao nodded.

Fortunately.There was not much glass solution in the initial experiment, so it was convenient to get it on the mountain. Halfway through the day, the kiln gradually turned off.

After the brick kiln was cooled enough to open the kiln, the mold was taken out, and two glass cups the size of a palm were formed in front of everyone.

Everyone except Li Yunjiao exclaimed.

"This is glass?" Under the sunlight, colorful rays of light were refracted, so crystal clear that Peng Yunyan didn't dare to hold it hard, and her hands trembled slightly while holding the quilt.

I have imagined it for a long time, and it is not as shocking as it is now.I'm afraid that if one accidentally crushes it with excessive force.

Yu Wenxian took the other one and looked at it repeatedly for a long time before handing it to Li Yunjiao.

After all, the conditions are limited, and small flaws still exist, so it is already very good.

"It's not bad. We can try to produce large-area glass lenses, but the thickness should be reduced. It can't be compared with glass, and it should be thinner.

"No problem, leave it to us." Peng Yunyan was full of confidence and drive.

Such a great invention, witnessing the moment of historical miracle, how could he be missing!

"Compared with glass, the lens of the window is more delicate, so the preliminary preparations must be sufficient. In this way, after three days, the official start of work will require more detailed ingredients and tools."

With a good start, there will always be more confidence.

When the first large-area glass was formed and carefully installed on the French windows on the second floor of the villa, everyone was dumbfounded.

Li Yunjiao used the remaining scraps to paint one side with a layer of gray paint, and the palm-sized mirror was freshly baked.

It is more than a hundred times clearer than a bronze mirror.

"This... this mirror is really miraculous, ma'am, how did you come up with it? It's amazing!"

Gong Qingbei loves smug beauty, so she quickly put the mirror into her bosom and took it as her own.

Lan'er pouted and snorted: Don't be ashamed!

Gong Qingbei chuckled: "What's the hurry, the glass will come out of the kiln in two days, and I'll make you a better one! I'll polish it for you, how about a golden edge?"

Gao Lan'er said angrily: "Who cares?"

After saying that, she turned around and left, Gong Qingbei's eyes darkened, and she chased after him to coax people.

"Hey, hey! You stingy girl, with such a bad temper, is older than your mother, don't worry, you won't get married in the future!"

It's just a tall mountain, and it's rare that Li Yunjiao, a shrew, can accept people submissively and be content.

Lan'er heard him speak ill of her mother, and became even angrier. Without stopping, she ran all the way home, and shut Gong Qingbei out of the room with a bang.

Gong Qingbei shrank back in fright, and touched her nose that was almost pinched.

God, he is a magic wand!

Letting such a little girl slap him with embarrassment does not tire of it??

Is he sick?It can't be cured.

??

After the glass was pressed, the room became brighter. Li Yunjiao specially placed a coffee table and a homemade sofa chair stuffed with goose down in the living room near the window.

Not to mention women and children, even a few older men like to nestle on sofa chairs.

Tsk tsk, what a fairy-like enjoyment!

What should I do if I don't want to leave more and more!

In the same way, Liu Shi also thought so.

Eat and drink every day, and don't have to work, it's like raising your ancestors.

My mother and I, she has never enjoyed it so much in her life.

enjoy!This word came out of Li Yunjiao's mouth, so it's not too appropriate.

Mrs. Liu was a little reluctant to think about Shu, and almost forgot the important things.

On second thought, a one-shot deal can't be done.

Originally, she came here to take advantage of Gao Dashan and Li Yunjiao's inattention, sneak away with some of the previous things, and make a fortune.

But in the past few days, she had seen how rich Li Yunjiao was, so it would be too uneconomical to just take the money and leave.

So after thinking about it, Liu felt that she could make a long-term plan.

??

Li Yunjiao also asked Gao Dashan to inlay the mirror on the wooden box, a jewelry box commonly used by women in this era, and gave it to Nian Dafu and Zhou Datong.

The expressions of the two are almost the same, and their eyes are shining brightly. This is the rhythm of another big fortune!

Under Zhou Datong and Nian Dafu's constant instigation, the Gao family bought another glass workshop, which was managed by the boss Gao Dahe and the second brother Gao Dahai. Because the procedure was complicated, it could not be done by one person.

After Gao Dahe recovered from his legs and feet, his spirit also recovered, and he worked very hard.

"Third brother, brothers and sisters, don't worry, my second brother and I will take care of you in the workshop. Your eldest brother has no ability, but he is not lacking in strength."

Li Yunjiao smiled.

She gave them the workshop.It's just to be a hands-off shopkeeper, sitting and counting money easily, which is the best.

In her previous life, she was busy and busy, and a little private time of her own was a luxury, so what happened?She will still be alone until she dies, now that Li Yunjiao has figured it out, money is a bastard, if you lose it, you can earn it, not to mention she is not short of money now, so she can keep it to press the coffin board again?Then she is not stupid, but an idiot.

"Brother, look at what you said. You can't write two high-level characters in one stroke. Even if the family is separated, we are still a family, and we don't talk about two families. In the future, these family properties will not belong to you or me. They will be kept. For the children, for the descendants of the Gao family. As the saying goes, the predecessors plant trees and the descendants enjoy the shade. We have worked hard for most of our lives, not for the sake of the younger generation..."

You have your own thoughts and plans in your heart, so you have to say this beautiful thing. She is not the Holy Mother. You can pretend to be noble or something, but let people know that she doesn't owe anyone. She is a cow for nothing. do horses.

So, some high-sounding words are indispensable.

The four brothers of the Gao family were grateful and excited after hearing this. Gao Dashan took a deep look at Li Yunjiao, approached behind her calmly, and secretly grabbed her hand and held it tightly.

"You're right. We've worked so hard for our children, sister-in-law three. I didn't expect that sister-in-law three is such a selfless person. I did a lot of messes in the past. I'm sorry, sister-in-law three. I??"

Xiao Xue wiped her tears with red eyes, not to mention whether her points are true or not, but one thing is true, she has to hold Li Yunjiao high, and it is best to always be at this height, which shows that Li Yunjiao can always protect them.

Gao Daxing reacted after being poked by Xiao Xue, and immediately said good things, patted his chest and promised to do a good job in the future, he is the third brother and the third sister-in-law working all his life, so he is content.

This is true, how many copper coins can you see after working so hard for a whole year?During the holidays, I have to count the number of dumplings I eat, which is not like now, when I eat a lot of fish and meat, I get angry.

The money in his pocket was soaring, and the third sister-in-law even gave them shares. The monthly money was more than he had earned in his entire life.

What else can I be dissatisfied with!

Gao Dahai can think so, let alone Gao Dahe and Gao Dahai.

They all feel now that no matter what they do, they can't pay back the third child and the family of the third sibling!It can only be proved by actions in the future.

??

The Gao family was about to make a big move, and the good news came from the capital that Gao Yan passed the exam.Return home soon.

Gao Dahe was immediately stunned on the spot, the lime in his hands scattered all over the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

"Scattered, big brother, lime is sprinkled!" Gao Dashan waved his hands while covering his mouth and nose, Gao Dashan came back to his senses, his eyes felt uncomfortable, and hurried to wash with clean water.

After wiping a couple of them casually, he ran back in a hurry.

"Fourth, is it true? Did I hear correctly? Gao Yan won the exam?"

Senior Gao nodded sharply.

"That's right, big brother, you heard me right, brother Yan is so good, he made our old Gao's face proud! The happy news has been reported to the family. It can't be wrong."

Gao Dahe looked up at the sky.

After a long while, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, ok!"

All these years of painstaking efforts were not in vain, and he was satisfied. Gao Dashan was naturally excited when a master Juren was born in the Gao family.

Yan Geer strives for success, he has not been studying for so many years, in those years, in order to support the scholar, the family cut down on food and clothing, parents did not hesitate to separate the family, Xing's is also...

Thinking of this high mountain meal, Xing's...

If the Xing family knew that Brother Yan could win the examination.The Gao family is also getting better and better because of the three younger siblings, will they take that step?

It's a pity that there is no turning back when the bow is opened. This is Xing's own choice, and Gao Dahe has nothing to do.

"Brother, this is such a happy event! Go back early today, let Lan'er cook some good dishes, and let us have a drink to celebrate."

Gao Daxing held the account book between his hands. Anyway, this month's account book had to be sent to the third sister-in-law for proofreading.

"Success, then go back earlier and tell your second and third brothers that our brothers will not come home drunk tonight."

It is rare for Gao Dahe to be so proud. Ever since he took over the glass factory manufacturing workshop, he has been busy day and night. He is still worried about hiring an accountant from the town. He insists on learning to read accounts by himself. God knows his elder brother can't read a single word. , spend all day in the dark and turn on the fire, burn the lamp to learn to read and write, among the brothers, he is the most active!

Even the to-the-point person of the second brother is not that diligent, he looks like a magic wand, and sometimes they are worried when they see it.

"Hey! Come on, I'm going to find my second brother and third brother!"

As soon as Gao Dahe left, Gao Dashan was going to pack up and go back. The workshop asked Erxiao to take care of it first. Wang Erxiao was the son of Wang Gengen from the same village who grew up with Gao Dahe. Growing up, this kid is just like his father, but unfortunately his family background is not very good, so Gao Dahe wanted to help him.

The folks in the village are young again, so there is no reason not to help.

"Okay, Uncle Dahe, I will take care of the workshop for you, don't worry, I will live here tonight!"

"That's okay, then you should be more careful!"

Wang Erxiao patted his chest and assured: "It's okay, don't worry, Uncle Dahe, I'm smart, nothing will happen."

Gao Dahe left after thousands of urgings.

After finishing the update, Wang Xiaoer was about to wash up and go to bed, when suddenly a figure flickered across from him, Wang Xiaoer turned off the lights and quietly opened the door to go out to check...

??

At the same time, at Gao Dashan's house, the brothers were happily drinking wine and changing glasses.

Although it was a family banquet, Peng Yunyan and Gong Qingbei were also among them as regular guests.

The children went back to their room early to sleep after eating.Li Yunjiao was not good at drinking, so she went back to her room after eating and drinking, leaving only a few big men drinking with relish.

When the clouds and mountains were shrouded in mist, suddenly there was a barking of dogs, and someone knocked on the door hastily.

"Dashan, Dahe? Open the door, something happened to the glass factory!"

Gao Dashan ran out to open the door, and the person who came was Wang Erxiao's father, Wang Gengen.

"Dashan, come with me, something happened in the glass factory!"

Gao Dahe came out of the house, saw Wang Gengen and asked, "What's wrong, what happened?"

Wang Gen didn't have time to explain, he pulled Gao Dashan and wanted to leave, Gao Dahe said anxiously: "Jian, what happened, you should explain clearly first."

Wang Gen stomped his feet and sighed.

"Oh, it's the Second Elementary School. The Second Elementary School was beaten up and ran back to me with a bloody head. Let me come to you quickly and say that something happened in the glass factory. I don't know the details. I'd better go and see. "

Gao Dahe's hair was almost standing on end, he was sober from the wine, and followed Wang Gen to the glass factory.

Seeing that the momentum was not good, Gao Dashan hurriedly called several men in the house to go out together and catch up with Gao Dahe.

"Brother Gen, how is Erxiao? Have you seen the doctor?"

Wang Gengen said: "It's okay, my mother went to find Hu Langzhong, but the scalp was broken, it's nothing serious, let's go to the workshop first."

A few old men, with long legs and big steps, arrived in less than a quarter of an hour.

Under the moonlight, I can see that the fence on the east side has been broken, and the originally tidy yard is also in a mess. The door of the room where Gao Dahe usually lives is opened, and he walks in to have a look.

A middle-aged man in his thirties was tied tightly to a chair.His mouth was stuffed with cloth strips, his body was covered with paint, and his clothes were torn in several places.

"Who are you? Why are you here and what are you doing?"

Gao Dahe grabbed the man by the collar and almost lifted him and the chair.

The man's face was red from being strangled, and his neck was thick, and he yelled.

Gao Dashan stepped forward and pulled Gao Dahe away, and untied the cloth strip from his mouth.

"Now we can talk."

"Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! My own, my own, I, my name is Li Cheng, I am Yunjiao's cousin, really! We are relatives, my mother, my mother still lives in Gao's house, are you Dashan? I met you when you married cousin Yunjiao, do you remember?"

Gao Dashan understood, this person is the son of Aunt Yunjiao?It's just that he really didn't have any impression.

I haven't seen him for more than ten years, but fortunately he can still recognize himself at a glance.

"Then what are you doing here at night?"

Li Cheng faltered and said: "I...oh, I came to look for my mother. I didn't expect to get lost. When I came here, I wanted to ask someone for directions. I didn't expect... I didn't expect that little brother misunderstood me. It's a thief, so I made a move. I was also in a moment of impatience, so I accidentally hurt someone, I really... really didn't mean it, it was just a misunderstanding!"

Gao Dashan untied the people with a sullen face, Gao Dahe was not organized enough, and looked at Li Cheng angrily.

Li Cheng is just like his mother, he is flexible, knows what to say when the time comes, and is very good at putting on airs.

"Why don't you take him back first, and ask your wife before making a conclusion?"

Everyone agreed with Gongqing Beice's words, turned around and helped Li Cheng, and took them back to Li Yunjiao.

But before Li Yunjiao went downstairs, Mrs. Liu rushed out from nowhere, hugged Li Cheng and cried loudly.

"Oh, Li Cheng, my son, what's wrong with you? Who beat you like this?"

Li Cheng seemed to have found his backbone, and sobbed along with him.

"Mother, my son is in big trouble today, he looks good and was beaten up, look at my place, here, and here, ouch, it hurts so much!"

Wang Gengen spat and said: "Hey, you shameless person, you dare to sue the wicked first and beat up my second son like that, I haven't settled the score with you yet! I'll kick you to death."

Although he is honest and responsible, his temper is violent, and he is by no means willing to suffer.

Li Cheng was timid, so he shivered and hid behind Mrs. Liu, but Mrs. Liu refused to give up, and yelled at Wang Gen with his voice.

"Fuck your shit, my son let your son beat you, you're still right? Believe me or not?"

"Enough, what's the noise at night!"

Being woken up in the middle of the night, Li Yunjiao woke up angrily.

When I got downstairs, I saw the smoky scene, and I was even more annoyed. I didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and made a fuss about everything!

Seeing Li Yunjiao frowning in displeasure, Mrs. Liu froze immediately, and muttered for a long time without saying anything.

She wasn't afraid of Li Yunjiao, but she was afraid of offending Li Yunjiao. If she broke her face, she would not get any benefit.

"Oh, Yunjiao! My aunt told you that it was all a misunderstanding. This is your cousin, the one who coaxed you to play when you were young, Li Cheng! Do you remember?"

Li Yunjiao crossed her legs and sat on the sofa next to the coffee table: "Oh, cousin, right? So let me tell you first, why did you suddenly appear in the workshop of the glass factory?"

Li Cheng paused, and his head began to sweat. He didn't expect that Li Yunjiao was so sharp, and his eyes were fixed on him, as if he could see through everything.

Sensing that something was wrong, Mrs. Liu quickly interjected, "It's me! I sent Li Cheng here. Who would have thought that this kind of thing would happen because of the dark night and the wrong way, Yun Jiao, my aunt thinks of you." That's good, I planned to stay longer, but Li Cheng left the house by himself, and I didn't feel relieved that no one would do the laundry and cooking, so I just summed it up, anyway, since your workshop is so big, why don't you let Li Cheng stay here with you? Workmanship, what do you think? Yunjiao, you can help your cousin, working here is better than working hard in other places!"

Mrs. Liu burst into tears, as if Li Yunjiao was treasonous if she didn't help her.

Li Yunjiao frowned, did she look like she was taken advantage of?No matter who you want to help unconditionally?Sorry, she's not the Virgin Mary and doesn't have that much compassion.

She helped the Gao family because of Gao Dashan, and also because the Gao family was not bad in nature and could be used.

But this Li Cheng, with a treacherous eyebrow and a mouse eye, is timid and can't be used.

As for Mrs. Liu, what's more, Mrs. Liu has been stealing a lot of things these days, regardless of whether it's worth it or not, her behavior has fully demonstrated her character.

She has been able to tolerate it until now, which is the utmost benevolence.

"Uncle, I can't use Li Cheng. The reason is clear to you. I won't say it. It's to save face for you. Don't worry, you have raised me for a few years. Yunjiao is very grateful. This 500 taels of silver is enough for you to live and eat for a lifetime." Worry-free, for the rest, forgive me for not being able to do it, you can go back tomorrow morning."

Li Yunjiao was too lazy to talk, so she dismissed her, and went upstairs without even giving a chance to argue.

What the others didn't realize was that Li Yunjiao did the right thing. It would be a disaster to keep such a person sooner or later, not to mention giving them 500 taels of silver, which is enough for an ordinary family to live comfortably for a lifetime.

Including Gao Dashan, no one was full of sympathy, spoke for Liu's mother and son, and left one after another.

In the end, Liu's mother and son cuddled up to each other, with a flash of resentment in their eyes at the same time.

Li Yunjiao, since you are heartless, don't blame them for being heartless.
