Rebirth of the poor elder sister-in-law

Chapter 207 Printing Workshop

Ye He stuffed the money into Liu Man'er's hand, and said: "In the future, we will save up the money for embroidering handkerchiefs. This money is sold by sister-in-law's embroidery samples. You should keep it, sister-in-law."

"Then I'll put it away, because I have a business that needs money." Liu Man'er thought of her movable type printing, and still received the money in her arms.

"My sister-in-law can come to us if she needs money. The two of us have saved a lot of money recently." Ye He said.

Liu Man'er shook her head helplessly after hearing this, and said: "Okay, you are young, stop thinking about money and money, go wash your face, and write in the afternoon, the two of you are busy embroidering handkerchiefs recently, You haven't played much, and your knowledge has been delayed, and my sister-in-law feels distressed when she sees the needles in your hands."

"What are we? My sister-in-law is not the same. She has a big belly and writes articles every day." Ye He walked forward, touched Liu Man'er's big belly, and said, "This nephew must be a young talent when he is born."

Liu Man'er said, "Maybe this baby is a girl."

"That must be a great beauty." Ye He's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and Liu Man'er said it sweetly.

She was pregnant in October, and counting the days, she was about to reach her due date. To be honest, she felt a little apprehensive and worried, but more of it was sweet. This kind of feeling of being a mother is complicated, and fortunately she is now I'm so busy, I don't have much time to think about anything else.

But every time I think of the baby in my belly, my heart is still very sweet.

Sometimes when I feel the baby's normal fetal movement, I am overjoyed, and suddenly become more in awe of life, feeling that this life is incomparably miraculous.

"Come on, Xiao He, sing a song for your little nephew." Liu Man'er heard Ye He's words, and suddenly remembered prenatal education, and then she remembered that she was busy every day recently, and she didn't talk to the child well.

"Ah, I sing?" Ye He said while supporting Liu Man'er to the main room, "How can I sing, or sister-in-law, please sing me a song, the last time I heard sister-in-law singing, it was very nice Woolen cloth."

"When have I ever sung?" Liu Man'er asked in confusion. In her impression, she had never sung.

"Didn't you hum a few words last time?" Ye He said, "The song that I only hoped for, and could do, is very nice."

When Liu Man'er heard Ye He say this, she added: "I only hope to return to the field to disarm, and to bring back the tea you brewed."

"Yes, that's the song, it's so nice, can you sing it again?" Ye He said.

"Don't sing, I forgot the words." Liu Man'er shook her head, but she was unwilling to fulfill Ye He's wish.

"Okay." Seeing that Liu Man'er was unwilling, Ye He had no choice but to stamp her feet, followed behind Liu Man'er, and asked, "Sister-in-law, did you write that script today?"

"I didn't write it." Liu Man'er shook her head, and Ye He's mouth fell down. Seeing her disappointed look, Liu Man'er stopped teasing her, and said: "Okay, I wrote it once, you can read it. "

"Okay, then I'll go." Ye He heard Liu Man'er said that she had written once, and immediately rushed to the study. Although Cao'er didn't like to talk, after greeting Liu Man'er, she also hurried He walked behind Ye He.

"Man'er, what Lao Shizi's story book you wrote, is it really so good? It seems that this group of children is fascinated." Fang really doesn't understand them.

"Of course it looks good. If you have nothing to do, go to my teahouse and listen to it twice." Liu Man'er said with a smile: "I will ask Uncle Han to reserve a private seat for you."

"If you say that, then if I have a chance, I really want to go and listen." Fang said, "But not now, I have to prepare some small clothes and shoes, and wait for my grandson to be born."

Hearing Fang's words, Liu Man'er bowed her head deeply, and said: "I will trouble my mother with these things. Speaking of which, my mother is not doing well at all, and I never thought of preparing for these things."

"You're too busy today, leave these things to me." Fang patted Liu Man'er's hand, Liu Man'er nodded helplessly, but she made up her mind to spend some time to make clothes for the children this evening. It's also her own child. She thinks about making money all day long, but she never thought of making clothes for the child. It's really dereliction of duty.

In the evening, after writing a storybook again, Liu Man'er went back to her room early to rest. She found sewing, scissors and fabric, and planned to make a dress for the unborn child.

The child's clothes were not difficult to make, and Liu Man'er stitched tightly under the light, and she felt a little more tenderness in her heart.

By the time a piece of clothing was ready, it was already midnight, a watchman walked by, and the loud sound of gongs and drums was heard far away in the quiet night sky.

In the silent night, with yellowish lights, a gust of wind came in through the open window, and it felt a bit cool on people.

Liu Man'er put away the needle and thread at hand, sat on the edge of the bed and touched her stomach, she couldn't help feeling a little more melancholy, Ye Yuan, Ye Yuan, are you alright? If you are really alright, hurry up Appear in front of me, will you?It's really not good, it's good to receive a few words from you.

What should I do if you really die?If you still can, why don't you come to me?You know, I miss you very much.

In another ten and a half months, our child will be born, why don't you take a look?

The red candle on the bedside burned more than half, made a "cracking" sound, shook it twice, and it burned to the end. In the darkness, Liu Man'er didn't bother to light the lamp again. Although she couldn't sleep, she still lay on the bed with her clothes on.

The long road is long, Sijun is far away, the white horse is galloping, the stars are mighty, and the heart heals.

……

Han Shixin has been busy looking for people to engrave letters these days, and is also busy looking for a place to use as a printing factory. It can be said to be very busy. Liu Man'er doesn't think about anything else every day, but takes time out every morning to write a storybook, and in the afternoon. I wandered around the courtyard, and I still wrote books at night, and the day passed quickly.

However, after a few days, the Han-style Xinna printing embryo was ready, and the Han-style Xin was relieved to put the embryo into the porcelain kiln that had been prepared earlier.

It was the first time to do such a thing, and Han Shixin was quite happy, guarding the kiln alone, thinking about the printing workshop, and feeling a little excited in his heart.

Who would have thought that this printing could do the same?At that time, as long as the layout is arranged, he only needs to swipe the things that others have worked so hard to copy, and the speed will be faster.

This time, Hanshixin made several sets of character embryos at one time, in case of emergency. While waiting for the porcelain kiln, he went to work on the printing workshop in the city. The workers have bought all the tools they need, and they can start printing after these sets of printing blanks are in place.

If this matter goes well, there must be no need to worry about the 2000 taels of silver.

Think about it, how expensive books are these days. My own printing workshop can print many books at once, so I am afraid that I will not make money?
Han Shixin knows that Liu Man'er is not a mean person. If he can really make money, he will not treat him badly. What's more, his family's deed of prostitution is with Liu Man'er. If Liu Man'er is unlucky, his family will not be much better. , he now only prays that everything goes well.

I have been busy in and out for the past few days, and finally it was the day of opening the kiln. After the kiln was opened, I pulled out the embryos for inspection. Although there were many damaged ones, most of the embryos were good. The small white squares make a crisp sound when they are tapped lightly. Han Shixin is eager to put them into use.

Use a carriage to pull all these stamps back. The book-sized template that Han Shixin has made a long time ago has been carefully designed. These stamps are just stuck on the template. After brushing a layer of ink, Once printed on the paper, the clear handwriting appeared on the white paper.

"Successful." At this moment, Han Shixin couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

As for the two printing masters he hired, they opened their mouths wide and said, "It's really amazing. I've never seen anyone print with this method. Movable type printing is really simple and convenient."

Judging from their tone of voice, Han Shixin had also revealed some words to them before.

"Of course." Han Shixin smiled slightly, and unconsciously brought two points of sharpness in his words: "The two of you will be the old team members of our printing workshop in the future. Please don’t leak out the matter of movable type printing!”

"Of course, we know the seriousness!" The two printing masters said quickly.

"That's good. If there are no problems with the two masters, please print five hundred copies of each of these three books." Han Shixin took out the books Liu Man'er gave him and said, "This is the latest popular word in the county. The book Journey to the West, if you print it, you can still take a look at it, which is really cheap for you."

"Then thank you, master. When will you want the other five hundred books?" One of the older printers took the books and asked.

"The sooner the better." Han Shixin said: "Our printing workshop is small now, but it will definitely get bigger and bigger in the future, so the work efficiency must be improved. The three volumes are not too thick. If it is five hundred volumes, It should be done in seven days."

"Well, we have to try it. After all, although movable type printing is convenient, it will take some time to disassemble it." Another printing master said.

"One of you is dedicated to typesetting and the other is dedicated to printing. This division of labor and cooperation will definitely save a lot of time." Han Shixin has now learned to draw big cakes for others. No more than two, if you need to recruit someone, go ahead and recruit, as long as the person is practical and trustworthy."

"Naturally." The two printing masters looked at each other, eager to try this new technology.

Han Shixin didn't bother seeing the two of them like this, after looking around the small workshop where there were only two of them at present, he went home and returned to Liu Man'er.
