Sun Yi was told by Mrs. Wu to be respectful to Hua Xin. Sun Yi also listened to it, and indeed did not cause any trouble in the first three days.It's just that Sun Yi's character couldn't bear it anymore on the fourth day. He got Bian Hong drunk the night before. In the morning, he was sent to the courtyard to study while he was still drunk. The look made Hua Xin very angry.

When Sun Lang came back, he said that Mr. Hua immediately asked people to drive Sun Yi out of the courtyard where he was studying. Sun Yi was completely unconvinced and almost started fighting with Mr. Hua. Fortunately, the attendants around him stopped him quickly. Didn't cause any more trouble.

Qiao Wei was not surprised when he heard this. He asked Xiaoye to bring the generous gift that he had prepared and go to apologize to Hua Xin in person. Hua Xin saw Qiao Wei's sincere face and did not want to embarrass a woman with a grandson. Lang tried his best to apologize for his brother, and finally calmed Hua Xin down.

Naturally, this matter was not hidden from Mrs. Wu, and Qiao Wei did not want to hide it from Mrs. Wu either.She had done a good deed, so why should she hide it so that no one knew about it? Not only did she want Mrs. Wu to know, she also wanted everyone in the Sun family to know.

Mrs. Wu heard that Hua Xin had not completely recovered from her anger, so she had no choice but to drag her sick body and take Sun Yi with her to apologize to Hua Xin again. Such a famous teacher and scholar could not be offended.It was just that he fell ill again after coming back from a tiring job. This time he was really angry. He didn't even urge Qiao Wei to prepare the wedding ceremony for Sun Yi.

Qiao Wei, who has found time and a good reputation, is looking through the battle report sent back by Zhou Yu and the list of craftsmen who moved south.

After Sun Ce's loss was reported to the Han court, Cao Ren went south again to attack Wancheng and Runan. In just half a month, Zhou Yu had fought with Sun Ce three times. With the help of various types of ordnance and the united efforts of the Jiangdong Army, he defeated them all. He retreated Cao Ren's troops and insisted on defending Wancheng.

For Qiao Wei, the most important thing about Wancheng is the local craftsmen and technology. In order to preserve the main craftsman skills, Zhou Yu selected some craftsmen to move south to Wu, also in order to continue to develop the military craftsmanship in Wu County. , thought to be used by Jiangdong.

There were a hundred or so people on this list, and the list was also very long, with names, ages, places of origin, and some work experience detailed. One of them caught Qiao Wei's attention.

Ma Jun, 25 years old, named Deheng, was born in Fufeng.

Qiao Wei confirmed again and again that this person's name and place of birth were definitely the inventor she thought of during the Three Kingdoms period, Ma Jun, who was also one of the most famous mechanical inventors in the history of ancient Chinese science and technology.

In his lifetime, he invented things such as the turning cart, the compass wheel, and the water-turning horse. Most of them were used to improve the efficiency of agricultural production. Things like the turning cart were still in use until electric machines were used to lift water.

Moreover, Ma Jun also transformed Zhuge's repeated crossbows, stone-firing chariots and other objects, becoming very important equipment for the army.

History books praise him as the most famous person in the world. When he is compared with masters such as Lu Ban and Mozi, we can see how powerful this person is.

It is indeed a great blessing for Jiangdong to have this person under his command.

"Zhou Gongjin really has the wisdom to understand people." Qiao Wei couldn't help but admire that he could find master-level craftsmen for him.

Youye looked at the name and had never heard of it before, "Is this person famous?"

"That's not true." Qiao Wei counted the time. At this time, Ma Jun should not have much fame. In addition, he was born in a poor family and had a stuttering problem. He was not good at talking to others, and he was not good at expressing his clever ideas. How can others know the clever thoughts in his heart if he expresses it!

"But he will definitely be famous in the future." Qiao Wei put the list away and asked You Ye to send it to Zhu Zhi, and then asked You Ye to inform Master Mo to pay more attention to Ma Jun.She had discussed with Mr. Mo San about trying to modify the winding method of the clever repeating crossbow, so that like a modern gun, the arrows could be loaded into the box in advance, and when ready to be used, the box would be buckled into a fixed position. You can shoot arrows.

Of course, this is also because Qiao Wei experienced the guard battle in Guangling with his own eyes, and saw with his own eyes the situation where soldiers were killed by the opponent's arrows because they were in panic and could not accurately load arrows into the clever repeating crossbow.This also reflects that the cocking method of the clever repeating crossbow is not convenient and fast enough.

After that, Qiao Wei thought of many ways to solve this problem, and also tried to make some simple modifications on her own, but her skills were still limited and she was never able to realize her vision.

Qiao Wei felt that maybe with Ma Jun's ingenuity, there would be a different solution. If the problem of winding speed could be solved, Jiangdong Army's actual combat capabilities could be improved.

Before Qiao Wei could be happy, the maid outside the door came to report that there was still a letter for Qiao Rong.But at this time, Qiao Rong had returned to Wancheng to marry, so the maid didn't know what to do with this letter, so she thought about it and sent it to Qiao Wei again and again.

It was okay for Qiao Wei not to read it, but he became angry when he saw it. There was no signature on the letter, but dried mugwort was wrapped in it.

Xiao Ye picked up the herb and looked very confused, "Who sent this letter? It didn't write anything, just sent a mugwort. If it was sent, shouldn't it be sent more? What does this herb have to do with it? Use it? What a weirdo!"

Not just a weirdo, but a shameless weirdo.

Xiaoye didn't know who sent this, but Qiao Wei knew it well. "The Book of Songs" said, "He is picking mugwort. If you don't see it for a day, it's like you are three years old."

This is not sending a letter, it is clearly flirting!
Qiao Wei directly snatched the mugwort from Xiaoye's hand and threw it into the brazier aside, out of sight and out of mind.

"Youye, go find the person who sent the letter and tell him that the daughter-in-law of the Qiao family has already decided to get married, so that the head of the family should put aside those thoughts that shouldn't be touched. He does this again and again. Are you preparing to enmity with my Qiao family with your little move?"

Although the Eastern Han Dynasty was not as strict about the protection of men and women as it was later, no matter which dynasty, no matter what gossip was spread, only women would suffer reputational damage in the end.

Zhou Yu is a man. If any unpleasant words are spread, others will cover it up with a nice talk. But Qiao Rong is different. She is engaged to Yuan Yao. If anything is spread, how will Yuan Yao interpret Qiao Rong? Are you a human being?How can Qiao Rong behave as a mistress in the Yuan family?Wouldn’t the servants of the Yuan family use these rumors to look down on Qiao Rong?
"Go!" Qiao Wei looked at Youye who was still standing still and urged him.

You Ye knew that although his mistress didn't lose her temper, she was really angry.He quickly went to find the person who delivered the message. After all, it was quite scary when his wife got angry.

I am really not afraid of thieves coming to steal, but I am afraid of thieves thinking about it.

Qiao Wei: I was so angry that I almost cursed, but my good qualities made me hold back.
