Disgusting husband cultivates virtuous

Chapter 55 The Great Grandpa's Secret
The laughter of the children and the old man came from the front, which brought back Xie Xianer's thoughts after a thousand years.

"Mother, here is the beautiful stone." Brother Zhen ran over and handed a small oval blue-gray stone to Xie Xianer.

"It's so pretty, thank you." Xie Xian'er took a kettle and poured a bowl of water for him to drink, and then pinched her little cheek that was tanned red by the sun.

Brother Lin also ran over, "Mother, this is for you, do you like it?" He took a pomegranate red pebble to Xie Xianer.

"I like it, it's very beautiful." Xie Xian'er also fed him water and wiped off the mud on his face with a handkerchief.

Not to be outdone, the old man ran over, handed Mrs. Tai a big dirty and wet pebble and said, "Hua'er, hehe, it's for you."

Mrs. Tai was a little dumbfounded, but she took it happily and said, "Thank you, old man." Then, she put the stone aside, wiped his hands clean with a handkerchief, and handed him a bowl of tea.

The old man didn't answer and said, "Hey me."

"Okay, hello." Mrs. Tai smiled and raised her feet to feed the old man water again.

The old man stretched out his hand to Brother Lin again and said, "Tattat."

After Lin Geer heard this, he quickly took out a greased paper bag from his pocket and handed it to him, saying, "Give it to Grandpa, Lin Geer and Brother didn't eat it."

The old man laughed and opened the oiled paper bag and started to eat.

Looking at the appearance of the old man, and then imagining how high-spirited he was when he commanded thousands of troops in a majestic way, the difference in fate is quite big.Of course, compared to her fate of being exiled by her mother's family and her husband's family in ancient times, her gap is even greater and more tragic.

It was almost noon, and several people got up and went back to Zhuangzi.

After the meal, Xie Xian'er put the two little Doudings to sleep, and Xie Xian'er asked Nanny Zhou to call Uncle Zhou in and asked about the iron-making workshop.

Uncle Zhou said that the workshop was called Zhangshi Iron Workshop, and the owner was Zhang Dazhong.The main thing is to buy some discarded rotten ironware, melt them, cast them into blanks of various farm tools and kitchen utensils, and sell them to blacksmiths.

Because of fierce competition, business was not easy to do, and old man Zhang had a serious illness, which almost used up his family savings.Zhang Dazhong had no choice but to grit his teeth and sell the workshop to treat his father's illness. If there was any leftover, he would buy some land.

"It's just that the buyer's price is too low, and the Dazhong brothers are in trouble." Uncle Zhou said.

"How much does the buyer offer? How much does he want to sell?" Xie Xianer asked.

"Brother Dazhong wants to sell the workshop yard, stove, blower and other things together, asking for 120 taels of silver, but the buyer is only willing to bid 80 taels of silver." Uncle Zhou said with a frown, as if he felt sorry for Zhang Dazhong The 40 taels of silver that was saved by the buyer. "Brother Dazhong is bold. The price he bid should be fair. But the buyer knew that he was anxious for the money, so he pressed the price hard."

120 taels of silver is nothing to Xie Xianer now, so she immediately said, "I am willing to bid 120 taels to buy the iron workshop."

Both Uncle Zhou and Nanny Zhou were taken aback, "Girl," Nanny Zhou called out the old address again in a hurry, "That iron workshop is dirty and rotten, even the elders don't want to tinker with it, you buy it for what?"

Uncle Zhou also said, "Grandma Ergu, Brother Dazhong doesn't want to do it anymore after working for more than 20 years. Why do you buy it? Besides, we don't know how to make iron."

Xie Xian'er laughed, "I didn't make it myself when I bought it. What are you afraid of if it's dirty or rotten? That's it, I accidentally got a prescription that can increase the strength of iron..."

Mother Zhou thought of the "dream" that Xie Xianer once told her, thinking that the god must have told her the secret recipe in the dream, plus she belonged to Xie Xianer's personality, so she quickly nodded and said , "Second/Grandma said you can buy it, so you can buy it."

Uncle Zhou was very entangled. He was afraid that Xie Xian'er would suffer, and he felt that she shouldn't spend a lot of money to buy an iron workshop.But I also feel that I am a servant, and what the master says should be what he should be.

Xie Xian'er smiled and said, "Uncle, I'm fussy, and I'm sure I won't suffer. Of course, let me go to the workshop to have a look when there is no one else. If I agree, I will buy it. I will also invite Uncle Zhang Continue to work as a foreman inside, and I will pay him." Since everyone in the Zhou family said that Zhang Dazhong is good, Xie Xianer is willing to continue to use him.

Uncle Zhou was asked to be the middleman to help make a deal, and he repeatedly told the two of them not to speak out until the matter was settled. If the Ma family knew it, they might cause trouble.

When people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Xie Xianer thinks that she can return to her old business and use modern knowledge to improve the iron-making process, making the sickle sharper, the iron plow more wear-resistant, and the shovel more durable. When ironmaking technology makes a qualitative leap, it is very exciting.

She sent the maids out, and planned by herself in front of the main room.After the two little things got up, they first came to Xie Xian'er's side for a while, seeing that their mother was too busy writing to take care of them, Tai Chi went to the woods again, and the two left the East Chamber hand in hand.

After a short while, the two little things ran back to the East Chamber.

Brother Zhen took Xie Xianer's hand and prevented her from continuing to write.Xie Xianer asked, "Honey, what's the matter?"

Brother Zhen leaned on his toes and whispered into her ear, "I have discovered a big secret, Grandpa thinks he wants to take an ax too."

Brother Lin pulled her hard on the other side of her again, so she had to lean down so that he could speak into her ear, "Yes, great-grandfather is lying on the bed, holding such a big ax." He gestured with his hand for a moment.

Xie Xian'er was startled, this was scary enough, Mrs. Kuai was born in the general family.

He hurriedly pulled them to the front, and said in a low voice, "You also know this is a secret, remember not to tell anyone else. Whoever tells it, mother will not let Sister Baiou eat delicious cakes for anyone."

The two children nodded hurriedly, vowing to curse that they would not take it out and talk nonsense.

Brother Zhen thought for a while and asked again, "Can't you tell Daddy?"

"Well, I can't tell him either." Xie Xianer nodded.

Lin Ge'er opened his mouth, but he didn't follow Zhen Ge'er to say daddy.

That night, everything was silent, and everyone was asleep in their dreams.Suddenly, from the upper room came the old man's big heck, then a crackling sound, and then a burst of Martian language, Xie Xian'er couldn't hear what he was saying.

Brother Lin burst into tears in fright, Xie Xianer was hugging and coaxing him, and Qingci ran over holding Brother Zhen who was crying and calling his mother.

When Xie Xian'er was hugging the two children, the old man had already calmed down under the old lady's comfort and Ma Zhong's coercion.Xie Xian'er never knew how Ma Zhong could sleep in the upper side room of the inner courtyard and stay on duty at night, but now she understands that he is not only a guard and a nurse, but also a nurse who has a lot of strength to deal with emergencies of manic patients at any time .

In the middle of the night, Brother Zhen didn't go to the south room, but slept in the north room with Xie Xianer and Brother Lin.
