Siheyuan: If I marry Qin Huairu, I will become stronger by showing off.

Chapter 356 Damn it, everyone is talented, the pen maker was in trouble!
The fact that Yang Hong was taken care of so well was obviously all the result of Yang Ergou.

At this moment, he was squatting on the ground, taking a towel and washing it in the water, then twisted it and wiped the corners of Yang Hong's mouth.

"Coughing up blood again?" Li Yaochen asked with a frown.

Li Hongli said: "Yeah, I coughed several times, ugh... I'm so anxious..."

"Old man, I'm causing you trouble..." Yang Hong, who was on the bed, turned her head to look at Li Yaochen, she was so angry that she said in a weak voice.

Li Yaochen shook his head and said in a deep voice: "It's no trouble. Just rest and recuperate."

After speaking, he looked at Wu Youde.

"Brother Wu?"

"Old man, let's go out and talk, let the patient have a good rest."

……

in the yard,
Wu Youde asked: "What disease is Yang Hong suffering from?"

When he went in and took a few glances just now, he only found that Yang Hong's complexion was extremely poor and there was no blood in her body. He didn't notice anything else.

Li Yaochen said: "I have depression in my mind, qi stagnation and blood stasis, and deficiency of both qi and blood. I have taken medicine, but it still doesn't feel better...

I also used my internal energy to examine her whole body's qi and blood, and found that her qi and blood deficiency was extremely serious, and the replenishment was not as much as she had lost. This is a strange thing!

If this continues, I’m afraid it won’t be long before...the oil will run out..."

“Dang Cang!!”

Wu Youde turned around and found Yang Ergou standing blankly at the door, with a washbasin on the ground upside down and water flowing all over the floor.

Li Yaochen sighed and said in a deep voice: "Er Gou, everything is a given. If you want to be more open-minded, please stay at home and spend more time with your mother during these days."

Yang Ergou came back to his senses, strode over, and then knelt straight on the ground with a thud.

"Master!!"

Li Yaochen was helpless, but he also knew that his apprentice was stubborn, so he could only say: "Get up, I will do my best!"

Yang Ergou kowtowed three times before getting up and going back to the house.

Watch him leave,

Wu Youde thought for a while and said: "Old man, I have a medicine that you might want to try. It is also specially designed to treat qi stagnation and blood stasis, as well as qi and blood deficiency. It has a good effect in regulating menstruation and relieving depression."

"Oh?"

Li Yaochen was a little surprised and readily agreed.

……

Saving people is like putting out fire.

Wu Youde immediately said goodbye and left, saying that he was going home to get medicine.

The medicine he was talking about was Dingkun Dan. As for whether Dingkun Dan could cure Yang Hong's disease, he actually didn't know for sure, but he guessed it might be useful?
Currently, Guilingji himself and Niu Longtai and others have personally experienced the prescriptions given by the system and received rave reviews.

In particular, Wu Youde also took Guilingji in his previous life, but the medicinal effects of the Guilingji he took and the Guilingji he takes now are simply not comparable!
In front of the Guilingji given by the system, the Guilingji he ate in his previous life was just rubbish...

In this regard, Wu Youde's guess is that either the medicinal materials he bought are wild and not artificially cultivated in later generations.

The medicinal effects of medicinal materials are better.

Either his Guilingji prescription is more authentic, or the original version.

And the Gu Lingji of later generations was actually a Xibei guy.

Wu Youde himself felt that these two reasons were the reason why the Guilingji medicine in his hand was so effective.

As for Dingkun Dan, he has never taken it.

However, Lin Cuizhi has also proven that this medicine is so powerful that even old women can rejuvenate themselves! !

It was precisely because of this that he thought about letting Yang Hong try it. What if it worked?

That’s a profit!
This Yang Ergou has outstanding talents and strong strength. The key is that his character is not bad. For such a person, help him and make friends with him.

Useful and harmless!

In fact, Wu Youde had Dingkun Dan in his backpack, but he couldn't take it out of his pocket directly in front of Li Yaochen.

That would seem too coincidental!
Who goes out with medicine in their pocket?

Wu Youde rode his bicycle around for a while, and came back after about an hour.

After giving the medicine to Li Yaochen and explaining how to take it, Wu Youde stood up and left.

Li Yaochen saw him off in person and did not stop until he was outside the door. He also asked Wu Youde's address and said that we would communicate more in the future.

Wu Youde gave the address of Nanluogu Lane, said goodbye again, and left with Niu Longtai and the others.

When I turned to leave,

From the corner of his eye, he spotted a red dress flashing through the door...

……

I originally came here to learn how to make calligraphy brushes.
I didn't expect that something like this happened in the middle, which delayed a lot of time.

As soon as he left Li's house, Wu Youde hurried to Zou Hanwen's place with Niu Longtai and the others. Only when he arrived did he realize that Zou Hanwen was very cautious and the meeting place was his private residence.

It is also a two-entry courtyard.

What surprised Wu Youde even more was that he saw an acquaintance here.

Suo Qian was actually there.

"Why are you here?"

"Hey, Lao Suo, what are you doing here?"

"Suo Qian, why are you here if you don't go to work? Are you doing your old habits again?"

Niu Longtai and the other two were also surprised, and they all asked.

Suo Qian also looked confused. He said casually: "Of course I have my purpose for coming here. Do you care about it?"

After saying that, he looked at Wu Youde with a smile.

"Hello Mr. Wu, I will tell you something later."

"Okay." Wu Youde nodded.

The disciple was a little impatient, "Old Suo, please wait for a while. Mr. Wu has business, so stay close to Mr. Wu first.

Brother Zou, this is Mr. Wu. "

As he spoke, he opened the bag in his hand, took out a bottle of medicinal wine and put it on the table.

"I'll give you a bottle first. You must teach with all your heart and don't hide anything."

"If you dare to hold back, you have to think about the consequences yourself..."

Zou Hanwen picked up the bottle, his face overjoyed as if he had found a treasure. He nodded hurriedly and looked at Wu Youde gratefully.

"Brother, don't worry, since I promised, I will never break my promise!"

Wu Youde looked him over. This Zou Hanwen was wearing a long coat, had a mustache, and was holding a pipe and pot in his hand, looking old-fashioned.

He is tall, but very thin.

Especially that face, which was dark in color and exuded a greenish-white aura. It was indeed hollowed out...

Wu Youde nodded and said with a smile, "That's good work."

"Haha, you're welcome, this is a fair trade!"

Zou Hanwen said carelessly: "However, let me explain in advance that my technique is not easy to learn. Not only does it require careful attention, but it is also very time-consuming.

If you can't learn it, it's not my fault! "

Wu Youde said: "It's okay, I will study hard. If I am not good at studying, it has nothing to do with you."

"to make."

Zou Hanwen said: "Shall we start now? I will tell you the whole thing first, and then show you step by step. You can go back and practice slowly at home.

When it's done, bring it over and show it to me, and I'll give you some pointers.

Do you think this is the case? "

"it is good."

After hearing Wu Youde’s agreement,
Zou Hanwen was very happy and immediately stood up and asked Wu Youde to wait for a while while he went to prepare.

In fact, he ran away with the medicinal wine and wanted to drink first.

……

Here

When Wu Youde saw that the matter had been settled, he told Niu Longtai and the others to leave first. There was no need to stay here with him, and he let the three of them go about whatever they should do.

After the three people left,
Suo Qian came over and said with a smile: "Mr. Wu, these days I have strictly followed your instructions to enlighten Tiedan."

"Oh?"

Wu Youde became interested and asked, "Tell me more."

Suo Qian smiled and said, "Zao'er went to the garment factory, didn't he? When Tiedan heard from the neighbors, he ran to the garment factory to try to save things.

But I was stopped halfway!

This guy is so stubborn. What matters in relationships is that you are willing to give in. How can we force it?

I told him sincerely... I talked to him for three days and three nights...

After some patient guidance from me, this kid has completely given up on Zao'er and promises not to bother Zao'er again! "

This is very suspenseful, and three days and three nights...

Believe it or not.

But seeing Suo Qian's words of assurance, Wu Youde was quite curious and asked, "You're not him, how can you guarantee it?
Also, how can you be sure that he has given up completely and is not fooling you? "

"Mr. Wu, I am so sure!"

Suo Qian spoke loudly and with great certainty, and then he whispered with a smile: "Mr. Wu, I took Tiedan to drink flower wine..."

Flower wine?

Wu Youde was stunned and said in surprise: "There is still flower wine now? Haven't all the eight alleys been arrested?"

Suo Qian chuckled and said: "Yes, the Eight Hutongs are indeed gone. But the capital is so big, with a population of more than one million?

Life is not easy for everyone nowadays. In order to make ends meet, there are still many prostitutes...

Mr. Wu, I know a few good families, with that figure... that job is good!
Shall I take you to see it another day? "Wu Youde: "..."

If this was a serious matter, Wu Youde would still like to experience it. He would like to appreciate the 'traditional culture' and be influenced by it.

But this kind of private small workshop...

Forget it.

You don't need to think about it to know that it's not interesting, a cabin, a bed, nothing more.

Those singing and dancing performances, playing music and singing, are definitely not there.

What's the point!
Therefore, Wu Youde's face straightened and he said calmly: "Forget it."

Changing the subject, he asked again: "You mean, this is the flower wine you drank with Tiedan?"

"Correct."

Suo Qian said with a smile: "That boy drank so much that he was made very comfortable by the big girl. He thanked me when he came out afterwards.

In the past few days, he secretly went there twice.

Mr. Wu, do you think he will still miss Zaoer? "

Wu Youde was convinced, this guy was really talented.

He closed a door for Tie Dan, and he opened a window for Tie Dan...

For Tiedan, this is

I don’t know if it’s a different kind of “blessing in disguise”?
Wu Youde patted Suo Qian on the shoulder and said pleasantly: "Well done!"

"Hehehehe... Mr. Wu, you've given me the award, as long as you're satisfied."

Suo Qian smiled from ear to ear, and whispered again: "Mr. Wu, Zou Hanwen has an old pit inkstone in the shape of a pine flower stone and a toad, which was used by Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty.

I just wanted to collect it and send it to you.

This Zou Hanwen, even though his name is Hanwen, he actually has a shitty culture, so leaving the inkstone with him would be a waste...

I think you, Mr. Wu, are the most suitable! "

Wu Youde couldn't help but glance at Suo Qiangao again. Is this guy interesting?

He smiled and asked: "Shunzhi used it. Is the news accurate?"

"We are inseparable from each other! A few years ago, there was a riot for democracy. Xuantong even packed up his bed and ran away...

People in the Forbidden City are in panic. Who among those dogs doesn't bring something out? The treasure inside was leaking out loudly, ouch..."

Speaking of this,

Suo Qian was very sad, feeling as if his treasure had been stolen.

He said angrily: "At that time, there were many wealthy households in the capital who secretly and privately contacted those who ran away from the palace to buy the treasures they brought out.

The inkstone that Zou Hanwen bought was the thread I held for him! "

It turned out to be the case.

Wu Youde smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

"Okay, okay, Mr. Wu, don't worry, I won't let you down." Suo Qian patted his chest and agreed.

……

in the room,
Zou Hanwen casually picked up a writing brush on the table and started talking.

“Our Zou Ziguang Pavilion’s brushes are made of high-quality animal hair and are carefully processed.

Mainly made from sheep hair, Jianhao, wolf hair, chicken hair, etc., all of these hairs must be strictly screened and polished to ensure the elasticity and water absorption of the brush. "

"The penholder is made of bamboo, with yellow skewer bamboo from western Hunan, white skewer bamboo from Huangshan, and natural wind-eye bamboo from Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian and other places being the best!"

“Using bamboo as the penholder is not only beautiful and elegant, but also has good air permeability, which allows the brush to breathe naturally when writing.

This ensures your writing fluency and comfort.

Even after prolonged use, your hands won't feel too hot or wet. "

"We have created a unique set of technological processes, with eighty-three processes and many unique operating techniques. The main processes include twelve-step processes such as pen materials, piers, inlays, basins, knots, sleeves, pen selection, and engraving. road."

"besides……"

Although Zou Hanwen was a libertine, he often wandered around the Bada Hutong in his early years and loved playing cards.

But he still knows a lot about family skills.

He picked up the brushes one by one and listed the advantages and disadvantages of each brush one by one. He spoke clearly and eloquently.

Only then did Wu Youde realize that this small brush actually contained so much knowledge.

How to straighten a very curved hair into a straight one?
He just listened to Zou Hanwen talk for about ten minutes.

Zou Hanwen said that the treatment of hair is very important. If the hair is not straight and soft, then the brush will be useless, soulless and unfit for use!
Wu Youde took it seriously, listened attentively, and asked a few questions from time to time...

I am also remembering it carefully in my heart.

It was not until the afternoon, towards evening, that he returned home.

……

After half a day of study and observation,

He already understood how to make a brush, and he also memorized the production process and some processing methods.

The rest is practice and practice.

The first step in practice is naturally - collecting materials.

The bamboo used for the pen holder was easy to handle. Wu Youde took a large bag directly from Zou Hanwen and did not count it. He roughly estimated that there were hundreds of bamboos.

There are yellow skewer bamboos, white skewer bamboos, and natural wind-eye bamboos, and the Zou family has plenty of them.

Therefore, Wu Youde only needs to collect hair.

……

This hair is exquisite.

The first requirement is: the length cannot be too short.

The second requirement is: the quantity cannot be too small.

For small brushes, 500-1000 is the best number; for large brushes, 1000 or more.

The quantity is easy to solve.

Firstly, a small amount can add up to a large amount. Secondly, as long as there are more targets to collect, the number will naturally increase.

There are four of them in Guangnan Luogu Lane, and there are two in Juyun Hutong, as well as Chen Xueru and Tian Zao.

That’s eight people!

I'm taking stock secretly.

A pair of long legs suddenly appeared in Wu Youde's mind...

This made him shake his head quickly, but he didn't dare to think nonsense!

He has a bad temper, he can explode at the slightest moment, and he also possesses martial arts skills. It's best not to provoke him if nothing happens!
Anyway, the second requirement can be easily solved, which is the first requirement...

You have to put some thought into it!
The length should not be too short. The smallest regular script brushes use hair lengths of more than 2.5 centimeters.

Slightly larger brushes are usually 3 or 4 centimeters long.

Therefore, it is necessary to screen carefully. This screening...

You can screen during collection, or you can collect a batch first and screen collectively.

At this time, Wu Youde was wondering which method should be used for screening. After thinking about it, he felt that screening during collection was a bit too laborious.

Not only is it laborious but it is also time consuming.

For example, when picking from Qin Huairu, he lay there and picked them one by one, looking at the ones that fit, and then picked them...

One after another, I guess I was busy for most of the day. I looked down and saw a dozen?
In addition to being time-consuming and laborious, it probably also hurts.

It's okay to pull out one root, but if you pull out more than a dozen, it will definitely be unbearable!
then,

After deducing in his mind, Wu Youde decided to use the second method. He took a pair of scissors and clicked them together, then gathered them all together, and then went back to find some free time to slowly select.

"Where are our scissors?"

"There are several of them, what do you use them for?"

Wu Youde turned around and saw that it was Xue Chunmei. His brows instantly furrowed. His eyes flickered back and forth over her body. The more he looked at her...the more he frowned...

Being stared at by him like this,
Xue Chunmei was suspicious. She looked down and found that there was no dirt on her clothes, and her clothes were not torn. Everything was fine.

She said coquettishly: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like this?"

"Meimei..."

"Ok?"

Wu Youde said solemnly: "You have posed a problem for me..."

"Ah? What?"

Xue Chunmei became more and more confused as she listened. She touched her face and hair, and then said angrily: "Mysterious, are you teasing me on purpose?
What kind of problem have I given you? Could you please tell me? "

"Ugh……"

Wu Youde patted his forehead and wondered why he had forgotten this.

He sighed: "I was about to make a rare treasure with my own hands, tailor-made for you, but I suddenly discovered...

Meimei, you don’t have enough raw materials! "

"I don't have enough raw materials???" Xue Chunmei's eyes widened in surprise.

Wu Youde nodded and said seriously: "Yes, everyone else has enough, but you don't have enough raw materials!"

"How is it possible? Why am I not enough?!" Xue Chunmei was very puzzled and pouted slightly.

She felt that Wu Youde must be teasing her on purpose.

Wu Youde raised his eyebrows and asked seriously: "Then tell me, besides hair, where else do you have hair?"

"what?"
