I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 286
What Gu Tuo said about making a coffin is literally making a real coffin!
After all, he picked up more than 40 sets of bones this time, and now the bones are simply stored in a jar.If these bones are to be buried, there must be a suitable coffin for burial.

And more than 40 people, including more than a dozen couples.So this time, in addition to the single coffin, they will also have a coffin for the joint burial of husband and wife.

Only when all these are done, can they allow Gu Ji's ancestors to be buried safely.

"The patriarch has already calculated that the 24th of next month is an auspicious day, and it is appropriate to bury the earth. In other words, we still have one month to make [-] coffins." Gu Tuo said again.

Then, he turned his head and nodded to a group of apprentices: "This matter can only be done by us together."

"Everything is arranged by Master Ninth!" the apprentices shouted hastily.

Gu Tuo nodded. In the next month, he really used this group of apprentices thoroughly.

They don't have to worry about the wood for the coffin.As early as when Gu Tuo took his two sons to bury the bones of Gu Ji's ancestors, Song Jinyan hurriedly collected several large carts of good pine wood and sent them over.

Along with the pine wood, there are several sets of spare woodworking tools in Yongxing.

After Gu Tuo got these things, he didn't go out anymore, and just saw and planed wood with his apprentices every day.

For a while, all around the huge house could only hear the sound of various tools and wood working together, and the scent of pine wood wafted through the yard, which was quite pleasant!
It was also during this month that Gu Tuo completely conquered this group of apprentices with his superb skills!

Since they can be selected as apprentices by Gu Ji, these people must have good skills now.In the past three or four years, when they return to the countryside, they only need to show off the skills they have learned in Gu Ji, and they will be able to make the whole town proud!

So they are very proud of their carpentry skills!
It's just that after seeing Gu Tuo's craftsmanship, they all closed themselves off.

From Gu Tuo, they finally realized what it means to be the best of Gu Ji's direct disciples!

It would take a day and a night for the three of them to work together to make a coffin, but Gu Tuo can do it in a day alone!And he did it better than them!
Even after finishing his own work, he can go back and check the fruits of the apprentices' labor and point out their mistakes-and he is right!
Everyone corrected according to what he said, and the things that were made were indeed much stronger and more beautiful!
Moreover, Gu Tuo's technique is capable and beautiful, as long as he strikes, he must be firm and ruthless.When he was working, the apprentices leaned over to watch, and he generously let them watch.

"If you want to see it, just watch it, as long as you can learn it, that's your skill!"

His straightforward behavior moved the apprentices very much.You must know that the internal hierarchy of Gu Ji used to be strict, and all apprentices with foreign surnames could only learn "Gu Ji's 36 Methods of Planing Wood" and "Gu Ji's 72 Methods of Sawing", so the "Gu Ji's Eighteen Methods of Wood" belonged to Gu Apart from our own people, no outsiders even have the chance to take a look at the untold secret inside!
Gu Tuo, the Ninth Young Master, has always been held in the palm of Gu Ji's hands like a treasure because he has shown extraordinary talent in wood craftsmanship since he was a child.

Even except for the people of Gu Ji's direct branch, even those who live in the other side of the house are not qualified to even take a step closer to him!
Therefore, the legend of Gu Tuo has been circulating in Gu Ji, but few people have seen Gu Tuo's true face—at least, none of these apprentices now.

However, in view of Gu Ji's upper management's strict defense, they always feel that Jiu Gongzi must be a guy who is praised as a high-ranking and unreasonable guy.

But now, after a few days of real contact with Gu Tuo, they realized: Mr. Jiu is really kind!

He is not only peaceful, but also has extraordinary skills.The most important thing is - he will never take apprentices with other surnames seriously like those people in Gu Ji Zhizhi!

These days, Gu Tuo ate and lived with them, and he would promptly raise any questions about carpentry, and he would teach the apprentices some knowledge by himself.

Therefore, after one month, more than 24 sets of coffins were completely made, and their skills have also made great progress during this whole month of intensive training!

And when they were busy with work, Xia Ying also gave them sufficient support in logistics.

She said before that her good cooking skills will not come cheap to the enemies of the Gu family.Then after confirming that everyone in the family is her own, of course she will not hide it!
There are two meals a day, and she cooks delicious food for everyone in different ways for each meal, and she never stops eating all kinds of big fish and meat!
She already cooks delicious food, and the portion of each meal is also very large.As long as everyone is at the dinner table, they just let go of their stomachs and eat, and they will not step on thunder with any dish!
And at this time, Xia Ying also changed from being so fierce in front of them before. She was smiling every day, and even came over to deliver tea when they were busy.

I don't know how her tea is made, but the taste is extraordinarily sweet and delicious, which makes everyone like it very much.

After a month of work, they all found that not only did they not lose weight under such high-intensity labor, but they also had a lot of fat on their waists and abdomens!
In this way, the resentment towards Xia Ying in their hearts completely disappeared.

By the time the coffins were all laid, they had already had a close relationship with Gu Tuo's family, and everyone lived together happily.

Waiting until the auspicious day of burial, Gu Tuo had already been with Xia Ying, and led the apprentices to put dozens of bones into corresponding coffins according to their respective identities.

After four years, these bones have already turned into white bones, so it is convenient to collect and bury them.

On the eighteenth of April.

As soon as the day dawned, the patriarch brought the whole clan, young and old, all dressed in filial piety, to the gate of Gu Tuo's house.

Gu Tuo's house had already been wrapped in white linen cloth and hung up with soul-calling banners.

Their whole family even wore sackcloth and filial piety, and the 24 coffins were neatly placed in the yard. The originally spacious yard suddenly became crowded.

The patriarch led the people into the house, and he knelt down on the ground with a plop.

The rest of the village also knelt down and followed suit.

The old patriarch fell on the front coffin, and he cried so much. "Fifth Brother, you've come home! Brother, I see you again!"

After a while, he cried until his nose and tears flowed all over his face, looking very sad.

Gu Yuanlong saw it in his eyes, but he said coolly: "It's hypocritical."
