Chapter 110 Luo Xiu

Shang Xiucai did not answer this question, after all Cui is a woman, he is a man, it is not easy to talk about a woman.

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

Shang Xiucai looked at the embroidered picture, and saw more than a dozen figures embroidered on the double-layered Gebu cloth the size of a compass. The people in the picture were either chopping down trees to build thatched huts, or lighting a fire for cooking, or embroidering in the mountains. Looking for food and water in time, every character is lifelike, as if living on the cloth.

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

Although the embroidery is done on cheap Gebu, the color of the embroidery thread used is also very single, but it is gray, white, black and blue, but because of the exquisite embroidery skills, it does not make people think that this embroidery is cheap, but adds a simple and heavy feeling. sense.

Mrs. Jiang was also very satisfied with this embroidery, and said: "This is embroidered by Xiaoyu's eldest sister. At the beginning, I just thought that sister embroiderer is just a superb embroidery artist, but after thinking about it on the way back, I realized that The embroidery method of this piece of 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 very vivid. Among the high-ranking officials and nobles, there are very few for sale in the market, and it can be said that it is hard to find a thousand gold.

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

If this piece of embroidery is really Luo embroidery, it will be worth a lot.

Shang Xiucai frowned when he heard this, and after a while, he said to Jiang Shi: "Maybe it's just a similarity, you don't have to take it to heart, we just need to be sincere with the Gu family."

Shang Xiucai didn't want to explore too much.

Mrs. Jiang understood Shang Xiucai's meaning, nodded and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, I know, I won't ask any more questions."

No matter what Cui's origin is, she is just a peasant woman now, and their family gets along with the Gu family just to repay their kindness, and they don't want to dig out Cui's past secrets.

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

Because of the heavy stone grinding, two mule carts arrived at Dafeng Village after an hour and stopped in front of Gu's courtyard.

Ah Jiu raised his voice and shouted: "Uncle Gu, we brought the stone mill here, take a look, where are we going to put it?"

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

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

Ah Jiu said with a smile: "There were originally two stone mills in the old house, one large and one small, which are convenient for use. Take a look, where are you going to put this stone mill?"

The yard of Gu Jinli’s house was full of wooden boxes filled with tofu. There was no room for two stone mills. Gu Jinli thought about it and said, “Take the big one to Luo’s house, and keep the small one outside the kitchen door.”

The big stone mill is half a meter in diameter, which is really too big, while the small stone mill is only one foot in diameter, which is very suitable for my own use, so I kept it.

"Okay, then let's move the small stone mill in for you first." Ah Jiu called Lao Luo, and the two tied the small stone mill with thick ropes, carried it on two poles, and carried it to the door of the Gu family's kitchen, where it was placed by the Gu family. it is good.

Gu Dashan had already gone to Luo's house to call Father Luo and Uncle Tian who were grinding beans.

Luo's father and son, Tian's father and son, including Qin Sanlang, all came.

This big stone mill is too heavy, no five or six men can't lift it at all.

Lao Luo's driving skills are good, and he said to the men of several families: "I will drive the car into the yard first, and then move the stone mill out after entering the yard."

"Hey." The men from the family responded, and made way for Lao Luo to lead the mule cart into Luo's yard.

The yards of several of their families are very large, with a front yard and a back yard, each of which is about half an acre.

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

Father Luo and the others came over and began to move the stone mill.

The stone mill is divided into three parts: the chassis and the upper and lower milling fans. Qin Sanlang is only 14 years old, but he has great strength. He moved the half-meter-long milling fan out of the mule cart by himself, and let the milling fan stand on the ground with a bang. Holding the mill fan by himself, he rolled the mill fan to the left side of the yard.

Luo's father was injured when he was young, so he didn't dare to do what Qin Sanlang did. Instead, he and Luo Wu carried down another mill fan, and the father and son rolled the mill fan and placed it on the left side of the yard.

The rest of the chassis was carried by Uncle Tian and Gu Dashan with wooden sticks the size of their fists to the left side of the yard, where it was placed on a buried boulder.

Immediately afterwards, the Luo family father and son put the two mill fans on the chassis and installed them, and the stone mill work was over.

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

Seeing that the stone mill has been moved, Ah Jiu said again: "There are still things that haven't been moved, let's go again."

After saying that, he turned his head and left with Lao Luo.

Gu Dashan chased after him 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 the mule cart and did not reply to him.

Gu Dashan sighed and muttered, "I don't know what else to grab?"

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

Gu Dashan said: "Just left."

"Leaving?" Gu Dexing was anxious: "Why did you 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 that you blame others for being late."

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

Gu Dexing's face flushed, he was very ashamed by Gu Jinli's words.

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

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

Gu Dashan nodded: "Really, there are still things to send."

Gu Dexing was very happy, he didn't go home again, but stayed at Luo's house and waited for more than an hour before Ah Jiu and Lao Luo came.

Lao Luo and Ah Jiu brought 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 ordered by Shang Xiucai for their family.

No one in Dachu used iron plates to make things, so their family would use iron plates to make fried five-spice tofu, but she didn’t refuse, let alone explain it. She delivered everything and returned it. Not to mention the trouble, it’s hypocritical.

When Gu Dashan saw the two iron plates, he knew that the iron plates were expensive, so he didn't want to accept them, but Ah Jiu's sharp tongue persuaded Gu Dashan to accept the iron plates in a short while.

Knowing that Ah Jiu and the others were coming again, Gu Dexing hurried to Gu's house and asked Ah Jiu: "Shang Xiucai read my article, what did he say?"

Running away from famine all the way, especially after the villain killed someone, Gu Dexing was scared out of his wits. After settling down, he didn't dare to go out for a while, but after so long, he finally found something he wanted to do, that is Studying and taking a test of fame!

This is what he has been doing since he was a child. 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. Yes, not for these rough jobs.
