Chapter 384
Thinking of the gang of brats in the village, Wu smiled unkindly. It seems that the village head will really be busy in the future.

Because Mrs. Wu always had a lot of breakfast, Si Qing asked Si Xizhu to stay to eat too. After dinner, he and Li Daya went hand in hand and went to Si Zhengping's house.

Poor Si Zhengping hadn't finished his meal yet, seeing Si Xizhu and Li Daya holding hands, his mouthful of food almost stuck in his throat, and he couldn't swallow it for a long time.

On the contrary, Mrs. He went out with a smile and led the two younger ones in, and asked them if they had eaten, and Li Daya said they had.

So they took them to the next room and waited.

Holding the bowl in his hand, Si Zhengping completely lost his appetite. The thought of teaching all the children in the village how to read would make his head explode.

But he had to listen to what his aunt said, and finally he could only say to Si Jinbai with tears in his eyes: "Today, you bring a dozen or so people to repair Si Dashan's house. My aunt said it will be used as a school."

"Ah? Dad, who will teach?" Si Jinbai was taken aback.

Si Zhengping hesitated, "Your father and I."

Si Jinbai: ...

Both Xiao He and Zhao looked at each other in blank dismay, silently lowered their heads to eat, and pretended that they did not exist.

They had already heard yesterday that the aunt was furious about Tong's adoptive husband, so why did the father-in-law suddenly have an extra job, without even thinking about it, they knew that the aunt did it on purpose.

I silently bowed a tear for my father-in-law in my heart.

Not long after breakfast, the five people who passed the exam yesterday came.

Si Qing asked everyone to sit at a small square table, and asked Mrs. Wu to bring over a basket of pheasant feathers.

These pheasant feathers are the tail feathers of male pheasants, which are long and hard.

Si Qing asked Wu to distribute two pheasant feathers to each of the five people, and distributed silk threads to them.

Tell them: "The next thing everyone will practice is feather grafting. These pheasant tail feathers have been cut off at the root, and the cut feather shafts are in the basket. Your task is to reconnect them."

The five looked at the tail feathers in their hands, and then at the feather shafts in the basket, and at first they didn't find it difficult.

The feather shafts of pheasant feathers are much thicker than bamboo sticks, and they can pick up bamboo sticks, let alone such thick feather shafts.

The new daughter-in-law of the Si clan said confidently, "Don't worry, grandma, we will definitely get it done soon!"

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to complete the task." Si Qing smiled meaningfully.

When Li looked at it, her heart skipped a beat. Why did she feel that her aunt's expression gave her a bad feeling?
Sure enough, Li's bad premonition soon came true.

When they took out the broken feather shafts, they didn't pay attention to the difference of the shafts of each feather, so everyone took them at will.

After cutting out the bevel, I found that the connection was a bit strange.

Not to mention, the problem is even bigger when the thread is wound.

The feather shaft is not like a bamboo stick, its surface is extremely smooth, and the silk thread cannot be fixed at all. If you don't pay attention, the silk thread that is finally wrapped will move directly.

The attached feather shaft fell off immediately.

Everyone thought it was just two feathers, something that could be done easily, but after tossing for a long time, they couldn't get one perfectly.

Immediately turned around in a hurry.

The little daughter-in-law who had confidently promised Si Qing earlier blushed anxiously, and said with some shame: "It's over, I knew it would be so difficult, I shouldn't have said that just now, my aunt will definitely leave a bad impression."

The other daughters-in-law had to comfort her, let her calm down, and told her that my aunt is not such a person, just do things with your heart, and my aunt will not care about this.
