Chapter 52

Ding Wei was drawing a blueprint of a toy frog in her hand. Seeing the big baby like this, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to her mind.

You want to make toys for An Ge, why not open a children's toy store.Although the people in this time and space have a hard life, for parents, no matter how hard they are, they will never forget to love their children.What's more, there are not a few wealthy households in the city, and the business cost is low, and the shop is also their own, so they are almost guaranteed to make money without losing money.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she was, she tore a new sheet of paper and listed all the toys she could think of.In the end, he made an ambitious plan to start from scratch tomorrow. Even if the business fails, he will leave it to his own children to play, so that he will not be left idle.

With things busy, life goes by faster.

After a heavy snowfall, the world completely turned into a vast expanse of whiteness, and the New Year's Eve also passed with the snow.

In the early morning of the first day of the new year, fragments of broken firecrackers were scattered in front of the doors of every household in Laoshan'ao.The young and the old took their children around the village and kowtowed to the elders to pay New Year's greetings.The adults just drink a cup of tea and eat some melon seeds and peanuts, while the naughty boys happily accept the red envelopes containing two copper coins, all smiling as if picking up a dog's head gold.

Wu Dasheng was winky and obedient, and he was the first to pay New Year's greetings to the Yun family.Uncle Yun was not ignorant of flexibility, he had asked Lin Liu to give the Wu family a generous annual gift years ago, and now he gave each of the two boys of the Wu family a big red envelope.As a result, the two of them were very close and harmonious when they spoke.

After leaving Yun's house, Wu Dasheng's two sons thought they were going to another house, but they didn't want their father to go straight to Ding's yard.

Old man Ding originally thought that no one would come to pay New Year's greetings, so he was leading his two sons around the house, planning to rebuild the courtyard wall in spring.As a result, Wu Dasheng and his son came to the door three times, and naturally they were warmly welcomed by the Ding family.

Old man Ding thought of Li Zheng's care for his family, and decided to let him have lunch and drink.Wu Dasheng didn't refuse, he kicked out his son who had won a big red envelope again, went home and told his wife, and finally stayed happily.

Not to mention how lively the Ding family is, but to say that the main courtyard of the Yun family is still as quiet as ever.

Ding Wei, a strict supervisor, kindly let Gong Zhiming take a day off.But Brother An somehow fell in love with playing on his father's stomach. Ding Wei tried to hold him down, making him cry every time, and in the end he could only let him hang on Gong Zhiming's body like a fat monkey up.

Gong Zhiming held his son in one hand, and looked at Ding Wei's accounting book with the other. Occasionally, he raised his head to glance at Ding Wei who was busy explaining with Feng Jiu, feeling a little dazed for a while.

When I was young, neither my grandfather nor my parents had passed away, and the New Year’s Eve at Gongzhi’s house was always noisy and noisy, and the yards were full of familiar or unfamiliar people.

Even the courtyard where the servants lived was not so clean, but after many years, in such a quiet and simple house, he suddenly felt an unspeakable warmth in his heart.

Brother An was probably dissatisfied with his father's neglect of him, so he bit his father's face hard with his drooling little mouth, which shocked Gong Zhiming instantly.Instead, he laughed loudly, "What a brave boy, you are so brave!"

Ding Wei raised her head when she heard the sound, and saw that one big and one small were smiling brightly, and that weird feeling swept over again.Is it really her illusion?She had also inquired with Yun Ying and Feng Jiu secretly. When she was pregnant, the Yun family were all in the capital, so it was impossible for them to meet each other.

It is said that love is born from the heart, is it true that An Ge'er gradually looks like an outsider after spending more time with each other?

She shook her head and temporarily put this question that she couldn't figure out into the back of her mind for a while, and then talked with Feng Jiu about the meshing of gears and the principle of winding.

But Feng Jiu heard this principle for the first time, and he couldn't understand it. Ding Wei's mouth was dry, but he was still confused.

Ding Wei was helpless, but Gong Zhiming coaxed Ang to sleep and said, "Let me see, why is the mechanism so complicated?"

Feng Jiu felt like he was being pardoned, and quickly handed over the drawings.

"Master, Sister Ding said that when these wheels are put together, the pony carriage can run by itself. This subordinate really doesn't understand..."

Gong Zhiming was a little disapproving before, but the more he picked up the blueprint and pondered it, his eyes became brighter. When he finally looked at Ding Wei, his expression was half suspicious and seven parts surprised.

"Did you draw this drawing?"

"Ah," Ding Wei was taken aback by the question, and felt that there was nothing too out of the ordinary about the drawing, so she nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"No, that's right." Gong Zhiming waved Feng Jiu to go down, and only the family of three remained in the room, before he asked, "Can you show this blueprint to others?"

"No, originally I wanted to send it to my second brother, but later I was afraid that his shop would be too busy, so I gave it to Feng Jiu to let him think about it and make it."

"That's good. Remember not to draw pictures for anyone to see again."

Ding Wei looked at Gong Zhiming's solemn expression. Although she didn't understand why, she still tried her best to fight for her son's rights, "But I still want to make toys for Brother Ang..."

"Then do something else, as long as the design of this kind of gear meshing can't be spread." Gong Zhiming refused to give in at all. In the end, maybe he was a bit domineering, so he simply explained a few sentences, "I want to develop an ordnance , this blueprint is of great use."

After finishing speaking, he followed up and said, "Of course, this blueprint can't be used for nothing. Let Uncle Yun divide you into two more shops, and you can choose the place."

"No, no." Ding Wei quickly waved her hand to refuse, but it was just a toy blueprint, so it was worth two shops.Besides, the Yun family has always treated their mother and son kindly, no matter how much she loves money, she can't be unprincipled.

"Since the young master is useful, just use it. Uncle Yun has given me a yard and two shops before, which are enough for our mother and child to live on. If the young master gives us any more property, it will ruin us. In addition, such a simple mechanism, I don't know. I know a little more, I will draw it and send it after I think about it later.”

Gong Zhiming nodded, then lowered his head and pondered over the blueprint again.Ding Wei faintly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. Ever since she came to this time and space, everything she interfered with was trivial, such as making a meal, changing the style of the furniture, benefiting her own family without hurting others.But today, if the blueprint is given out, if the ordnance is really made, countless lives will be harvested in the future.Does this count as her little butterfly flapping its wings and causing a storm?
Thinking of this, she was really flustered, stepped forward to wrap her sleeping son silently, and then quietly exited the door.

Gong Zhiming was writing and drawing with a pen in his hand. Hearing the movement of the door, he glanced up and sighed, "Is it a woman..."

Ding Wei didn't know if there was suspicion in her heart, or if it was true, she always felt that the Yun family's courtyard was a little weird from the day she gave the blueprint.It was still so quiet during the day, but there seemed to be a lot of people coming and going at night. She tried her best not to open the window secretly to have a look.

But fortunately, everyone in the Yun family treated her as before, and gradually she began to complain about being meddlesome.Not to mention that before signing the work contract, she knew something special about the Yun family, but now she just found out, so it doesn't matter, she is just a cook, she works hard, and she is worthy of the wages.

Thinking in this way, she regained her energy and began to study the medicinal diet with Shan Yi, the degree of recovery of Gong Zhiming, when she changed to crutches and continued to practice, and occasionally had time to take stock of all the achievements of Feng Jiu during these days, pondering He asked Cheng Dayou to divide half of the silk and satin shop to try selling toys.

Naughty boys are easy to fool, all kinds of building blocks, all kinds of chess and cards, darts roulette, large puzzles, chains of tricks, everything can make them play for a long time.But the toys for the little girls need to spend some thought and effort. Fortunately, Lin Liu is a diligent person, and he bought many bags of duck down after years.Ding Wei conveniently sewed a Peter Rabbit, which was just big enough for Ange to hold in his arms, but Angle picked up the rabbit like candy and gnawed it madly, but his heart hurt all the old and young girls.

Aunt Li happened to come in to give Ding Wei some steamed rock candies, so Xiaoqing naturally followed her.Seeing the rabbit in Ang's hand, the two exclaimed how cute it was, and cheekily snatched it from Ang's hand to look at it.That's all for Aunt Li, Xiaoqing almost held her in her arms and never let go, even Yunying was busy pouring tea in her hands, her eyes would glance at the rabbit from time to time.

Ding Wei saw it amused, and immediately said, "Brother An is gnawing on this rabbit so much that I drool, so I can't give it to you anymore. I'll think about other styles later, and I'll give you one for each of you."

"Really?" Xiaoqing was the first to cheer with joy, "Sister Ding is the best, I want a big one, and I will hug it to sleep at night."

Aunt Li was also happy, and joked with a smile, "You might as well marry a man quickly, and there will be no shortage of people to hug you at night, and it will save Miss Ding from having to work with her needle and thread!"

"Oh, auntie, you..." Xiaoqing stomped her feet in shame, turned around and ran out, "I'm ignoring you!"

Everyone laughed, Ding Wei casually drew a Hello Kitty and a Snoopy on the paper, Yunying fell in love with Snoopy at a glance, and rarely said straightforwardly, "Girl, I want this one. "

"Okay, I'll ask Manager Lin for a few more black and white rabbit skins. That one is smooth and soft to the touch, and it's the most comfortable to hold."

"Okay, I'll go now." Yunying put down the teapot and went to find Lin Liu, leaving Aunt Li to help Ding Wei divide the embroidery thread.

Ding Wei thought that if the shop opened, she would be overwhelmed, so she smiled, "Auntie, I want to consign and sell these gadgets in the shop at home, but the needlework is not very good, so I really can't do it. Auntie at night If there is nothing wrong, please help me!"

Aunt Li is a warm-hearted person, and Ding Wei treats their family very well, so she quickly agreed, "Okay, if you have any work, just leave it to me."

In her opinion, life is not easy for Ding Wei mother and son, and now she is probably trying to save more money for future plans, and she is just doing her best to help out.But she didn't know that today's quick promise would result in a generous income for each family in the future...

Ding Wei didn't say much, and started stitching with each hand, and soon sewed a simple puppet, with a white face, black eyebrows and black eyes, a pale pink face, a small rosy mouth, and complete hands and feet. On the kang, it really looks like a little girl who has shrunk many times.
