Chapter 81

Thinking of making dried rice noodles, Lu Yumin started to toss about it!

This stone mill is at home, the difference is the twisting machine for twisting rice noodles!There is none here, and it is impossible to manufacture modern machines, but you can try the handmade rice noodle machine in your hometown!
She asked Li Sanlin to go to the village master to ask for some rice paper, and then she first found a branch and drew on the ground. She wanted to wait until she felt confident before drawing on the paper with charcoal, otherwise it would be a waste paper.

When Li Sanlin entered the door with rice paper, he saw his daughter-in-law squatting on the ground drawing and scratching her hands and ears. When he was about to approach curiously, Lu Yumin hurriedly called out: "Be careful, don't step on it! Go here Come on this side." He pointed to the other side.

Li Sanlin squatted down next to Lu Yumin and asked curiously: "Daughter-in-law, what are you drawing? You have drawn so many. Is this what you said you want to make rice noodles?"

Lu Yumin smiled mysteriously, looked at him and pointed to one of the pictures and asked, "Sir, what can you tell from this?"

Li Sanlin grinned loudly: "Daughter-in-law, isn't this the bucket on the windmill used by Che Guzi and Chemi? Can't you tell?"

Lu Yumin smiled: "That's the thing, but I don't need to make it as big as the bucket on the windmill, I can make it half as big as it is. I also want to make it made of iron, I don't know if I can make it."

Li Sanlin suddenly realized and praised sincerely: "You asked me to ask my wife for paper, just to draw this picture on paper. You should draw it here first, and then paint it on paper when you are familiar with it! Wife is smart. This thing needs It should be no problem to make it with iron, Boss Wu's craftsmanship is the best in the town!"

Hearing what he said, Lu Yumin was determined: "Well, that's it! After I finish drawing this picture, we'll ask Boss Wu to try it out!"

Li Sanlin immediately said flatteringly: "Daughter-in-law, sit down first, I'll go and move out the small table in the living room. The sun is so bright today, so you can sit under this tree and finish drawing!"

Lu Yumin waited for Li Sanlin to move the small table, bent down on the table attentively and carefully drew the funnel, the threaded iron rod for mixing, and the iron cylinder for making vermicelli, and then took Li Sanlin to Wuji Blacksmith's shop the next day.

As soon as Boss Wu saw Li Sanlin, he greeted him enthusiastically: "Oh, is Master Li coming to the shop today for something?"

Li Sanlin replied enthusiastically: "Boss Wu's business is good! Today I want to ask Boss Wu to beat some guys, but you may not have beaten these guys! I wonder if Boss Wu can help!"

Boss Wu said confidently: "Master Li will always help. It's just that I don't have many new items, but as long as there are pictures, it's not difficult."

Li Sanlin said happily: "Then I am very grateful to Boss Wu! Daughter-in-law, show your picture to Boss Wu and see if he can type it out!"

Lu Yumin shook the papers in her hand and handed them to Boss Wu: "Boss Wu, do you think this can be typed?"

Boss Wu looked at the picture and then looked at Lu Yumin and asked in surprise: "Is it you? It was really good that my sister-in-law sold me the picture last time! Hahaha, Master Li, you have married a good wife!"

Lu Yumin smiled and said unceremoniously: "Boss Wu bought two pictures of me for five hundred dollars, and now all the villages from ten miles and eight villages come to you to buy those two things. You are going to get rich!"

Boss Wu smiled "hehe": "Thanks to my sister-in-law, although I didn't make a fortune as you said, it is true that my family has had a good year because of it! Today my sister-in-law came to make this new item, I only count you The cost is good!"

Lu Yumin immediately said with a grateful expression: "Then thank you very much, Boss Wu!"

Boss Wu said happily: "You're welcome, you're welcome! You are Master Li's daughter-in-law, and we are acquaintances! Even for Master Li's sake, I can't count you as expensive!"

Li Sanlin immediately said modestly: "Boss Wu, you are being polite! My daughter-in-law likes to make new things to play with since she was young, and she also likes to make jokes. You can count as much as you want, but you can't let Boss Wu suffer!"

Boss Wu said enviously: "Master Li, you little daughter-in-law can make money just by playing! You won't lose money, you just earn less money! But the two pictures given by my sister-in-law last time, I don't know what to do." I'm sure I've earned money! You put the picture here today, and I'll try to help you make it, but can you tell me what it can do?"

Lu Yumin smiled lightly and shook her head: "Boss Wu may not believe it, and the little lady doesn't know if they can be used for anything! It's just that I suddenly had the idea to make these few things. Now I have to talk about what they can be used for." Early, because we don't know if it can be done, and at present we only have the idea of ​​trying!"

Seeing that Lu Yumin refused to speak up, Boss Wu had no choice but to laugh: "Sister-in-law, this thing will be of great use in the future. If you can cooperate, you and your wife should come to me!"

Li Sanlin immediately said straightforwardly: "Boss Wu, don't worry, if it is really useful and something that big guys can use, if you want to make it and sell it, you must cooperate with Boss Wu!"

Boss Wu laughed loudly: "Then it's settled? I believe Master Li's words. I have to figure out this thing carefully, and I will send a letter to Master Li when I get it out!"

Li Sanlin also said bluntly: "Okay! That's it!"

The two left Boss Wu's shop, bought some daily necessities, and returned to Lijia Village. On the way home, they said as they walked, "Daughter-in-law, that piece of dyed muslin just now is really beautiful. If you wear it on You must look good!"

Lu Yumin pretended to be unhappy and said, "Then you mean I don't look good in my current clothes?"

Li Sanlin immediately begged for mercy: "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law! I didn't say that! I just said that clothes made of that piece of cloth must look good! Actually, I think it's best when a daughter-in-law doesn't wear clothes!"

Lu Yumin looked around and yelled strangely: "Li Sanlin! What are you talking about!"

Li Sanlin carried something and leaned closer to her ear and said, "Daughter-in-law, your husband said you look best when you don't wear clothes! Especially when you call you husband, husband, your small face is so charming and your body is so red , makes me want to eat you every time! Daughter-in-law, let me feast my eyes every night from now on, right?"

Lu Yumin secretly looked around the road with a fiery face, and when she saw people coming and going, she had to secretly twist Li Sanlin's waist: "I asked you to talk! I have read the book for a few days and nothing else. Use it, but use it here! I'll let you feast your eyes!" After speaking, he gave him a hard twist!
Li Sanlin wrinkled his face and said aggrievedly: "Daughter-in-law, I'm not wrong! If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself at night! Your husband-in-law and I are the most honest people, and I never think of lying to my wife!"

He couldn't really say that he couldn't speak for this man, so Lu Yumin glared at him fiercely with a blushing face, and then hurried forward, Li Sanlin happily followed.

After returning home, Lu Yumin thought that it would not be too fast to make the rice noodles machine, so she took away all the out-of-season vegetables in the vegetable garden, opened up the land to grow seasonal vegetables, and waited until the cut firewood was almost dry. , They asked someone to get it back together.

That day Li Sanlin borrowed a big ax and cut and split the long firewood in the yard. Lu Yumin took two children and stacked them under the side eaves.

Seeing that the eaves are not wide, Lu Yumin suggested; "Master, there is a lot of rain this spring, and the firewood yard is easy to get wet here. Can you build another shed here and connect it under the eaves?"

Seeing that her proposal was useful, Li Sanlin said: "Okay, tomorrow I will make some straw mats and ask Wulin to help me erect two pillars, and then I will build them with bamboo."

Sure enough, the next day Li Sanlin called Li Wulin, Li Erlin and Li Silin heard that the third brother was going to build a shed and also came to help.

The firewood was stacked next to the chicken coop. Lu Yumin thought maybe he could buy a few more chicks to raise, so she asked them to make the shed a little bigger and directly built the chicken coop into it.

In the evening, everyone had dinner at her house. At the dinner table, Li Wulin smiled and asked, "Sister-in-law San, how much firewood do you want me to put in your shed?"

Lu Yumin explained with a smile: "The children are growing, and it is time for nutrition. I want to buy a few more chickens to raise, so that the children will have eggs to eat every day!"

Li Wulin said with a smile: "I think it's too big to be a chicken shed there!"

Lu Yumin disagreed and said: "It's okay to have a bigger chicken shed! Besides, if it rains a lot, you can even set up pennies to dry things. The children's clothes also have to be changed every day, and rainy days just happen to be fine." Can be used!"

Li Erlin did boast about her: "Third brothers and sisters, no wonder your second sister-in-law is always nagging me, Niuniu and Yaya are lucky! I think she is right. To be honest, with a stepmother like you, this It is hard to find in the world!"

Lu Yumin said embarrassingly: "Second brother, don't you praise me like that! People's hearts are fleshy, how can I watch children suffer? Besides, I just try my best to treat them better and behave according to my conscience. , but there are still many deficiencies.”

Li Silin immediately joined forces: "Sister-in-law three, don't say that. Everyone can see your character! People have two skins on their lips, and let others say things! If you have a conscience, you don't care too much about anything! "

After hearing Li Erlin and Li Silin's words, Lu Yumin was moved and said: "My husband is really blessed to have brothers like you! How many people say that they are brothers, but don't they all care about such trivial matters! But you guys really let me I think that’s what brothers are like.”

Li Erlin said solemnly: "Third brothers and sisters, there will be unhappiness between us brothers, but we are brothers after all, everyone should take a step back! Our mother's personality is too strong, always forcing my father to have nothing to say. In the end It’s always our brother who suffers. So we knew from an early age that if it’s too aggressive, something will happen.”

Lu Yumin was stunned: Everyone said that the bamboo shoots are good!It seems that it was confirmed at Li Mingcai's house!With Cui's virtue, she can still give birth to so many sons who have not been deceived by her. It's lucky for her!

Li Sanlin saw that the atmosphere of his brothers was much worse because of the influence of the Cui family, so he hurriedly said: "Second brother is right, we don't want to be like our parents! The second sister-in-law and fourth younger siblings are not like this. When you are a daughter-in-law, you have to cheer up and watch more!"

Li Erlin said with deep feeling: "That's right! Although my daughter-in-law has a carefree personality, she is very straightforward, has a good heart, and is capable of doing things. I am lucky!"

Li Silin really said meaningfully: "Indeed, although the second sister-in-law is straightforward, she doesn't talk nonsense, which is indeed respectable! The third sister-in-law has such a gentle temper, and the third brother's blessing is no worse than that of the second brother! Wulin, Listen to what my brothers say, to marry a daughter-in-law, you must find someone to inquire about it before you can marry!"

Li Wulin saw that he was back on him again, so he said embarrassingly: "It's not the parents' decision which one to marry as a wife? With my mother's personality, can I let me go?"

Li Sanlin disagreed: "Wu Lin, you have to insist on this matter. The daughter-in-law will live with you for the rest of her life. It is up to you to judge whether it is good or not! Parents can help you talk about marriage, but it is up to you whether to marry or not." Just agree!"

Li Wulin nodded earnestly after hearing what his brothers said: "Yes, I know! The sisters-in-law are all so nice, and the brothers' families are so happy. I will definitely inquire carefully before marrying a wife! "

The brothers who were chatting at this time may not know, just because of the sigh of the brothers, they did not know, which caused a great conflict between Li Wulin's subsequent marriage and Cui's.

Ten days later, Li Sanlin brought the cattle from Brother Jin's house and brought back from the town what Boss Wu had beaten. He placed it in the yard and asked, "Daughter-in-law, where do you put these things?"

Lu Yumin happily ran out of the house: "Sir, did you really get it back?"

Li Sanlin looked at the happy daughter-in-law and asked cheerfully, "I got it back! Where do you put it?"

Lu Yumin pointed to the hall and said, "Put it behind the door in the hall, so you won't be afraid of the rain."

The machine is not big, and the two of them installed it in a short while. Lu Yumin said to Li Sanlin, "Sir, I will soak a few catties of rice in a while, and you can help me grind it out in the evening when you have time."

Li Sanlin asked happily: "Can you make the rice noodles you mentioned right away?"

Lu Yumin shook her head and said: "How can it be so fast! When I soak rice later, I will divide it into several categories, and I have to think carefully before I can make it! If the proportion is wrong, it will break if it is not boiled. It's just soup!"

When Li Sanlin heard it was so complicated, he immediately said: "Daughter-in-law, take your time! Anyway, there is no rush, just call me for whatever you want!"

The weather was not so good, and Lu Yumin’s rice noodles had never been made. After trying several kinds of rice noodles that day, as expected, some would break, and some would turn into soup. After several attempts, the rice noodles in memory Made it, just bad weather and no production.

At that time, Li Sanlin saw his daughter-in-law shaking her head and sighing, and immediately comforted her: "Daughter-in-law, don't be in a hurry! Anyway, the family didn't say to wait for the rice noodles to earn money, and I will be able to work and start business in two days! You did it The money earned from those intestines is enough for our family to eat!"

Lu Yumin glared at him and said, "That won't work! Now that you've started doing it, you have to do it! I still don't believe it, it can't be done! I still want to use it to earn a lot of money!"

Li Sanlin hugged his bearded and staring daughter-in-law in a funny way and said, "Okay! My daughter-in-law can do whatever she wants! But don't rush, be careful!"

After hearing what he said warmly, Lu Yumin turned around and put her arms around his neck and said, "Sister-in-law, do you think my memory is so bad? I have done it before, why can't I remember it?"

Looking at the aggrieved little face in front of him, Li Sanlin stretched out his big mouth and couldn't help kissing: "Don't worry, think slowly, you will definitely remember it!"

Lu Yumin felt even more embarrassed this time. No matter how close the two were, she still couldn't stand the most intimate thing once she brought it up!After stomping her foot, she turned and went outside the door!
Li Sanlin in the living room smiled, and he swore inwardly that he must persuade his daughter-in-law to get used to not rejecting him during the day when the time is right!Because it's really beautiful there!

As soon as the first month passed, Li Sanlin started his normal business again, telling Lu Yumin not to do heavy work, and to kiss her quietly before leaving the house every morning.

Seeing Li Sanlin's intimacy with her, Lu Yumin's peaceful heart felt a slight ripple. This man looks rough, but sometimes his heart is very delicate. He cares about himself in his own way. It would be a lie to say that he is not moved. To herself, Lu Yumin lay on the bed and thought quietly, it would be great if they could grow old together in such a life!

But life is life, two strangers live together, just want to live a sincere life, but friction is inevitable!

Especially Li Sanlin, who grew up in an ancient society where men were superior to women, his deep-rooted thought of men's superiority cannot be in harmony with Lu Yumin's modern society's idea of ​​equality between men and women!
And what she didn't expect was that the day when she felt separated would come soon!
