Chapter 226

After that, Yao Huahua looked at the parents in the crowd again.

Yao Tieshu also came, on crutches, and sat on a bench after arriving. The other villagers knew that he was worried about Yao Huahua, so they gave him the front seat.

Yao Huahua also cast a confident look at her parents, looking confident.

And Yao Tieshu and Wang Mudan held hands tightly, both nervous and hopeful that Hua'er can win.

……

At the front of the grain drying yard, Squire Lin and Village Chief Li had already taken their seats. Seeing that Yao Huahua and Zhao Xian were almost ready, Squire Lin said to the stone behind him, "Go, take the cabinet in my car." Come out."

Shi Shi got the order, and immediately led the two servants to Squire Lin's carriage to carry a small cabinet out.

This cabinet is very small, and it is often seen in ordinary people's homes. It is square and square, without doors or carvings. It is similar to a modern small bookshelf. It does not require many processes, and Zhao Xian's wood shop sells it.

As soon as the cabinet was carried out, some villagers whispered:
"Aren't you making desks and chairs? Why did you take out a cabinet?"

"Perhaps Squire Lin thinks that this kind of small cabinet is more a test of craftsmanship."

"That's right, Squire Lin wants to catch them off guard."

"..."

Squire Lin leaned his head and whispered to the village chief: "Don't say I don't take care of your nephew, I brought this cabinet from your nephew's shop specially, but if your nephew can't even do this well, then You can't blame me."

Village head Li hurriedly said respectfully: "Thank you, Squire Lin. Squire Lin is right. If my nephew can't even do this well, then he deserves it for not being able to bid."

Then, Village Chief Li yelled: "The bidding starts, let's start!"

……

Zhao Xian recognized at a glance that the cabinet came from his shop, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart: It seems that the bidding is just a formality, whether it's the village head or the squire Lin, they are all for me.

He took a sympathetic look at Yao Huahua, and felt that Yao Huahua was so stupid for coming up with the idea of ​​bidding. Didn't she know that since ancient times, officials and officials have defended each other?Village officials are also officials.

Yao Huahua walked unhurriedly to the small cabinet, first measured the size of the cabinet up and down with a soft ruler, then carefully counted the number of grids in the cabinet, and then returned to the sawing table to spread out pen and ink .

"Hey, why is Hua'er still making pen and ink? Isn't she a carpenter?"

"I guess it is to record the size. After the measurement, you must write it down, otherwise you will forget the size later. What should I do if one board is long and the other is short?"

"I hope she remembers it quickly, look, Zhao Xian has already started sawing wood..."

Just when the villagers thought that Yao Huahua was memorizing the measurements, they saw Yao Huahua start drawing again.

The villagers sweated for her again: "Why did you start to draw pictures? Shouldn't you count them?"

"What is she doing?"

Yao Huahua quickly drew the shape of the cabinet, and after drawing, she marked the size on each board.

Seeing this, the villagers couldn't help but suddenly said: "It turns out that the size is marked after the painting is done."

"Sharpening a knife does not cut firewood by mistake."

"I heard that professional carpenters do this."

"..."

After drawing the picture, Yao Huahua began to saw the wood.

The eldest aunt and daughter-in-law A Tao and A Ju were also in the crowd.

The eldest aunt thought it was a good show, she even grabbed a handful of melon seeds from home, and said while nibbling: "Isn't this Yao Huahua too overconfident? With her small body, she can still compete with Zhao Xian." Huh? Saw wood is a man's job!"
