The peasant's daughter-in-law of crossing

Chapter 84

Four days later, Birming and Ji Wang still haven't returned.Yingniang knew in her heart, she knew that they should be worshiping someone as a teacher, and they were probably concentrating on learning at this moment.

Yingniang knows that no matter which dynasty or generation, mastering a craft is better than just farming.Just like many carpenters and masons, they both farm and work, and live a slightly better life than ordinary people.

You must know that in modern society, many blue-collar workers earn more than white-collar workers.Even migrant workers have reaped their spring, and many of them have surpassed white-collar workers, but they work harder and consume more energy.As long as people are not lazy, willing to learn and work hard, they can live their lives slowly.

Yingniang suddenly had the feeling that her Bo Ming was about to become a high-tech talent. Although oil extraction technology might not be considered a big deal, in this ancient times, it should be regarded as very remarkable.

Thinking that in the second half of the year, she will be able to eat non-GMO soybean oil, Yingniang is really happy, because finally she no longer needs to eat sesame oil, which tastes much worse than soybean oil.

However, it is not enough to just think about it, she has to act.In the past two days, she often walked around the village, observing the terrain and seeing where it was suitable to build a house.In this ancient time, houses cannot be built casually. Generally, they can only be built on the foundation passed down from the ancestors, or they can fill in their own land to build houses.

After looking around, she decided that it would be better to build two rooms in the backyard of her own house, so that it would be close to home, and she would not have to fill in the land properly.The allocated land is precious, and it has to be used to grow soybeans.

When Yingniang told Zhongping and Zhaodi about her idea, they both felt that they would build it in their own backyard, and they could settle down when Boming came back.

Zhongping was still busy looking for a master mason, because the work in the field would be even busier in another month, and it would be better if he could start work earlier.

Seeing that Bo Ming and Ji Wang hadn't returned home after fifteen days, Yingniang began to worry.She also knows that learning this is not so easy, but half a month has passed, and she should have learned it almost.

No. On the morning of the 16th, Yingniang looked and looked at the gate of the courtyard with Nian'er in her arms.She seemed to have a strong feeling in her heart, and always felt that Birming would come back one day.Unexpectedly, when she kept looking around the door, Birming really appeared in front of her eyes.

With a thought in mind, she trotted forward to greet her, only to find that it wasn't just Birming and Ji Wang who came, there were several people behind them driving three horse-drawn carts, each with a wooden cart. big guy.

"Ms. Ying!" Bi Ming called her happily, "Look, what did I bring back?"

Ying Niang touched these wooden things, "Could it be... an oil press?"

Ji Wang jumped out of the car, "Sister-in-law is really knowledgeable. These are sold to our family at a low price by the new master. Although they are a bit old, they will not delay the work at all. We hired these elder brothers to help pull them out." return."

Birming told the hired men to wait before leaving, and he had to go in and get the money to pay them.He bought too many things this time, and the money he brought with him has been spent completely penniless.

Birming paid them the money, and moved the contents of the car to the yard together, and those people left.

Seeing that Boming was still holding a thick herb book, Yingniang casually took it over and opened it, and found that it was full of records of the oil extraction process.The content of the diary is unusually detailed, because Bo Ming wrote a book densely and densely, and every word is written extremely neatly and handsomely.

Yingniang sighed in her heart, if Bo Ming went to school, he would definitely be a hardworking and motivated student.With his earnestness, she believed that he would definitely be able to do a good job in the oil press by then.

Yingniang saw more than a dozen thread materials with a large burden, "Berming, did you buy so much thread material because you asked someone that the thread clothing workshop can be opened?"

Bo Ming nodded with a smile on his face, took Nian'er from Yingniang's arms, kissed him several times, and said: "I haven't even had time to ask those merchants about this matter, but the shopkeeper asked me first. He said A few years ago, a few big merchants saw a woman wearing the sweaters we woven on the streets of Wuzhou. They were very interested, and bought a few from the shopkeeper to go to the capital. Unexpectedly, these merchants came this time. , They all said that they want to buy a lot of goods, preferably men's, women's, and children's. Don't you think this is exactly what we want? So we don't have to worry about not being able to sell it. Now it depends on how you sell it. This sewing workshop opened up."

Yingniang blushed when she heard this, and she immediately felt motivated to do something big, and said excitedly: "Berming, I even have a good idea of ​​where to build a house, it's in the backyard of our house. Building two One is an oil press workshop, the other is a sewing workshop, just waiting for your nod."

But Bo Ming was stunned, "No, the oil mill and the sewing mill can't be next to each other. The oil mill has to be burned, boiled, pounded, smashed, and it's very noisy. It can't be too close to you, and it can't be too close to the neighbors. Otherwise, it will prevent everyone from resting."

This Yingniang really didn't expect it, the main reason is that she doesn't understand the oil extraction process at all.Hearing what Birming said, it seems that they really can't be built together.

Bo Ming said again: "I already thought about it on the way. The oil mill should be built behind Shuchang's house. There are only two families there, and the land belongs to our family. It's just right. What do you think? "

Yingniang felt that Bo Ming was becoming more and more like a macho man who was in charge of the house, so she nodded, "Of course I want to listen to you, you are the head of the family."

Hearing these words, Bo Ming felt refreshed, and really wanted to go up and nibble her, making her beg for mercy.

Ji Wang, who was carrying the burden into the house, looked at the two of them in silence and smiled without saying a word. He thought to himself, the elder brother and the elder sister are always talking and laughing when they are together, and they have never quarreled or even fought. .As for him and Jin Ling, if she really agrees to marry her, will they have quarrels and fights every day?

He could even imagine the scene of the whole family watching the two of them quarreling in amazement, alas, don't think about it, maybe she didn't agree at all.That's fine, it's quiet.

After Bo Ming and Ji Wang carried all the bundles into the house, they sat down and opened two of the bundles, which contained delicious food wrapped in paper.It was nothing more than the things Yingniang loved to eat, braised beef, exquisite pastries, some dried fruits, and a big bag of fresh fruits.

Yingniang picked out some, "Ji Wang, save these, you and your elder brother can go to Shen's house tomorrow."

Ji Wang didn't know whether it was shyness or embarrassment, but he just bowed his head in response, not daring to look up at Yingniang and Bo Ming.

Yingniang thought of something, picked out some food and wrapped it up, "I heard that the youngest seems to be sick, you can send some food, just to see the youngest."

Ji Wang was about to go out with his things, when Yingniang ordered again: "You have to take it to the wooden shed. Liangzi and the youngest have already lived in the wooden shed two days ago."

Ji Wang obeyed and left.

Bo Ming hesitated and said: "It's not a problem for the two of them to live in a wooden shed. Last time I heard from my second uncle that if he only built two small houses, he would be willing to spend a small amount of money to help a bunch of people. But Liang Zi also wanted to build a small courtyard, because he still has to get married, and he has to leave a house for the youngest, and then let the second aunt live in, and building two small houses is not enough to live in."

Yingniang sighed: "I'm afraid that Liangzi won't have the money to build a yard when Second Aunt comes back next year. Also, he has been paying attention to Yun'er recently, as if he really cares, but Yun'er still can't let go."

"Hurry up, haven't you noticed that Yun'er blush when she sees Liang Zi coming to our house? It's been half a month, are you anxious at home?"

"Can you not be in a hurry, if you don't come back again, I want to borrow a bullock cart to find you." Yingniang obediently took the almonds that Bo Ming handed over with her mouth.Nian'er in Yingniang's arms saw his father and mother being so affectionate, he kept yelling, and looked like he wanted to eat.

Bo Ming looked at his precious son, imitating the sweet voice of a child: "Little glutton, you haven't teeth yet, you can't eat this, let your mother breastfeed you."

Ying Niang was about to breastfeed Nian'er when Ji Wang came in.

"Sister-in-law, is there any leftover medicine from our house last time? Liang Zi saw that the youngest was just runny nose and coughing, so he didn't think there was anything serious, so he didn't buy medicine. .”

This was heard by Yun'er in the yard, she ran to the kitchen cabinet to look through it, and came over with the medicine, "Sister-in-law, let me make medicine for the youngest."

Yingniang would naturally agree, "Okay, you can take care of him more these days."

After Yun'er boiled medicine for the youngest and gave him a drink, he insisted on Yun'er playing there for a while, pestering her to tell him the story of Wuzhou.

It was almost noon, and Yun'er prepared meals for him and Liang Zi.In order not to see Liang Zi, she hurried away after finishing her work.Unexpectedly, as soon as she left the shed, she bumped into Liang Zi coming back.

"Yun'er, why are you here?"

When Yun'er heard Liang Zi call her that, her ears and neck turned red with embarrassment, she ran away without saying a word.Liang Zi forgot for a moment that he should have called her Miss Yun, but he was used to hearing Yingniang call Yun'er, so he forgot to change his words.

After Liang Zi came in, seeing the ready-made hot meals on the small table, he suddenly felt that it would be better to have a woman at home.

"Brother, recently a matchmaker wanted to propose marriage to you, but you said no. Why don't you marry Sister Yun, she is good-looking and capable, and she never quarrels with others, how wonderful." The youngest sat down and relished I ate the food made by Yun'er.

Liang Zi glanced at him, "I think you are too lazy to cook, and just want to eat ready-made."

The youngest pouted: "No, if Sister Yun becomes my sister-in-law, I can cook for her.

Liang Zi lowered his head, "Your elder sister Yun refuses to marry, it doesn't matter if I'm hot."

"Why doesn't Sister Yun want to marry?"
