Chapter 6
Gu Yingying saluted and thanked, "Thank you, my lord! It's just that women don't dare to take this reward alone, but should share it with the villagers. If everyone doesn't work together, even the best production tools will be futile. After work is over , Minnv must go home and prepare some food and drink, waiting for everyone to come."
It took her nearly 60 taels of silver to make those two production tools, not counting the transportation fee.
60 taels of silver, but a magistrate, two months' salary.This is only for a treasure land like Jinxia Prefecture, and the officials of those impoverished state capitals still cannot enjoy this treatment.
When Jia Shi saw a box of silver taels, he felt a sharp pain in his eyes and closed them tightly.
But at this moment, Gu Yingying had already picked up a dustpan of rice, and walked to a solid wooden object with "four feet" that was about six feet long, one meter high, and one meter wide.
The magistrate ordered Jia:
"Come closer and have a look."
Jia had no choice but to open his eyes, and walked behind Gu Yingying step by step under the contemptuous eyes of everyone.
"Standing, what is it?" Lizheng couldn't stand it any longer, and hurriedly asked someone to bring several baskets of rice to Jia's side, and ordered Jia:
"Go, ask Yingying for advice, and study hard. These days, you have harvested the least rice, which is holding everyone back. If you don't learn well, you don't have to come to harvest later."
Jia Shi was not willing to earn wages, even if he was humble, he came forward to ask Gu Yingying for advice humbly.
Gu Yingying didn't say much to Jia Shi, rolled up her sleeves, showed a small part of her fair wrist, pointed at the windmill and said to the villagers:
"This is the grain fan cart I told you about last time. It can also be called a windmill."
After all, I personally poured a dustpan of rice into the hopper, shook the handle, and the windmill whirled.While the grains are falling freely from the feeding port, by the wind force of the shaking fan, the wind generated by the accelerated air flow blows over the grains, and grains of plump grains flow out from the rice mouth.
The slightly lighter broken rice flows out from the broken rice mouth.
The lighter bran and dander, etc., are discharged from the air outlet.
Jia watched the whole process from a close distance, inhaled the ashes, and his face was like a cat's, with no image at all.She has always known only to be lazy, but today under the supervision of everyone, she was forced to hand over Gu Yingying's millet for nearly an hour, and she was so tired that she couldn't straighten her waist.
Gu Yingying also shook her arms sorely, but in order to make Jia feel the pain, she said lightly:
"It's okay, I'm just like playing house, it doesn't take any effort at all."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Jia knelt down and bowed to Gu Yingying, begging for mercy repeatedly, "Auntie, why don't you take a rest today? Even if I wash your feet, it will do. If you are still so obsessed with working, I'm afraid my waist will be broken."
During these days, Jiashi was lazy at first because he was lazy, and later because he was injured and couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the others in the group.In short, in these days, Jia's behavior was not good, which caused everyone's displeasure.
Seeing that the Jia family is about to withdraw now, who would give her a chance?
From the gray-haired elders to the children with missing front teeth, they all said that Mrs. Jia hadn't harvested much rice these days and should do work.
Since the windmill is a rare object, some villagers want to experience it for themselves after admiring it.Just like that, as soon as Gu Yingying left, someone else took her place.
Na Jia directly fainted in the rice field.
at dusk.
After seeing off the magistrate and his group, Gu Yingying fulfilled her promise and went home with Zhu to prepare dinner so that the villagers could come over for a meal.
The original owner has offended many people before, even in these days, the big guys are doing their best to reap the harvest, and they are not always chasing after the past.But some of the wounded were imprisoned for education before they recovered.
The main reason was that people from the two villages had a dispute, and many people were injured during the fight.
Although there were no casualties and no death was required, it was inevitable that he would be locked up for more than ten days.
Farmers can't delay, and they will miss the farming time.
She invited the villagers to have a meal, firstly, she wanted to discuss with them how to help the families of the wounded to harvest rice.For example, the big guy can help, and she will give some wages or something.
It is also possible to hire helpers in other villages, and she will pay the same.
After she discussed with her family members and Lizheng and his wife, they all got their support.
Gu Yingying and Zhu Shi returned home, and were about to go to the kitchen to wash their hands and prepare meals, when they saw their second aunt Shen Ruyi and cousin Gu Yao.
Both mother and daughter are dressed brightly, with a little makeup on their faces. Even if they are standing in this earthen house, people will know that they are not permanent residents here after meeting them.
They all have a kind of coldness that rejects people thousands of miles away.
Whether it was in the memory left by the original owner or after she got along with the second aunt and the others, she had never seen them smile at her.
Not even just a smile.
She put the prepared cakes on the table and invited the second aunt and the others to eat.I saw that they asked the second uncle to pass it over, but they just didn't want to say a word to her.
As soon as she and the second sister-in-law returned to the house, the second aunt and cousin threw out a pile of dirty clothes and forced the second sister-in-law to wash them.
It may be because the original owner and the second brother did too much, and they really hurt the second uncle and the others.No matter how difficult the second aunt and the others made the family, she never heard what her parents said about it.
As soon as Shen Ruyi saw Mrs. Zhu, she said in a tone:
"Quickly, go and put away the dried clothes for us, fold them up, and quickly wash the clothes we changed today."
Seeing that Zhu Shi was about to leave, Gu Yingying grabbed her hand.
At this moment, the parents and the second uncle are not in front of them, why should they give face to the two mothers and daughters who are vain and lazy, and have never given them a good face?
Shen Ru disagreed, looked at Gu Yingying with probing eyes, smiled half-smile, and said:
"Ying'er, you two are the only ones back, where are your parents?"
Gu Yingying said truthfully: "I went to buy straw."
"It's getting dark, why don't we come back to cook and eat, but run to buy some straw? We didn't have lunch at noon, so we were so hungry." Gu Yao looked dissatisfied and took her anger out on Gu Yingying.
"Cousin, after this season is over, the weather will get colder. If you don't buy some straw and spread it in the cowshed, so that the cows can live warmer, who will plow the land for us next spring?"
Gu Yingying didn't want to explain to the idiot cousin, but with the second aunt around, it was hard not to.
"A cow is just a beast. Whether it's warm or not doesn't matter to me?" Gu Yao was so angry that she pointed at the tip of Gu Yingying's nose and asked forcefully:
"Is the life of my parents and me important, or the nests of your livestock?"
Gu Yingying quickly knocked Gu Yao's hand off, "I am your cousin, please show some respect."
In any case, the second uncle is a man of culture, and the second aunt's father was originally the village master, who had read sage books.
The cousin was born in such a family, can't she be a little self-cultivated?
"Ah bah!" Gu Yao spat at Gu Yingying, and said contemptuously:
"You go to be the cousin of the cow, and buy straw for it to build a nest. See if it will take care of your food and drink in the future, or will it take care of your retirement?"
