Chapter 176 Custom Loom

Xu Yuan raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder. From now on, she no longer treats him as a child.

"Go, take me to see Mr. Lu."

Lu Zhou can now maintain a normal daily life by himself and does not need help from others, but he still keeps him by his side thinking that Chang Zhu can learn from him.

When Xu Yuan entered the room, he was sitting at the table with a book in his hand, and he didn't know what he was reading.

"Miss Xu." Seeing her coming in, he put down the book in his hand, fixed his eyes on Chang Zhu behind him, "Pour tea for Miss Xu."

"How is your recovery, sir?" Xu Yuan sat down opposite him with a rather concerned expression on her face.

"Very good." He stood up and cupped his fists, "Thank you for saving me, girl. If there is anything Miss Lu needs to do, I'm willing to do it!"

Chen Yan had told him a long time ago that if Xu Yuan hadn't insisted on saving him, he might have died in prison by now.

However, the reason why Xu Yuan insisted on saving him was uncertain, and Chen Yan couldn't say it either.

He lived in Sanxian Pavilion for more than half a month. Although he was comfortable, he was also uneasy. Xu Yuan devoted all her energy to saving him, but she never mentioned any conditions.

"No need to be too polite." Xu Yuan got up to support him and let him sit down, "I'll save you, there is indeed something I need you to do, but...it's not a big deal."

"Please say."

"It's just that I saw that Mr. is very skilled at the market that day, so... I want to recruit Mr. to be my bodyguard." She paused, "Besides, I, the boys in the grain shop, occasionally need Mr. two."

Lu Zhou was stunned for a moment, he thought that Xu Yuan spent so much money to rescue him, he must have to do something involving life and death, unexpectedly she said such a simple thing so calmly.

"You don't want to?" Xu Yuan looked at his expression, a little unsure of what he meant, why couldn't she see that she was a little happy?

"No, no, of course, of course I am willing." He came back to his senses and quickly responded, "I just feel that if it's just for these trivial things, it might not be worth it for the girl to save me..."

"Is this worth talking about?" She waved her hand, "Since I decided to save my husband, I never considered these things."

Chang Zhu stood aside and watched the conversation between the two, and he couldn't get in the way, so he could only pour tea and water, and the desire to become stronger became more and more profound in his heart.

Xu Yuan chatted with Lu Zhou for a few words, took his pulse, confirmed that his current body would be able to come out normally after a few days of recuperation, and then decided with him the time to train the servant in the future.

"Sir, take a good rest, I'm leaving first." She got up.

Lu Zhou said goodbye to her, and asked Chang Zhu to send her out.

When Xu Yuan was far away, Chang Zhu ran in excitedly from outside: "Sir, is Miss Xu as kind-hearted as I said!"

"Yeah." He responded, and picked up the book again, "I'm not going to practice."

Chang Zhu pouted, and picked up the bucket after returning to the rockery.

……

The next day, Xu Yuan followed Chen Yan to the grain shop, but within three days, the number of people in the grain shop really increased again.

Xu Yuan glanced at the long queue outside the door, and thought about it seriously in her heart. If this is the case, should she consider expanding the store?

But in the end, she gave up. The shop has just opened for a short time, and it will take a lot of time if it is tossed about again. The matter of her cloth village has not been resolved yet, so let's not bother about this matter for now.

"Where's my brother?" She looked around, but there was no Xu Chi.

"I went to buy supplies early in the morning." Chen Yan dug out the account books of the past few days, "I heard that you decided to let those refugees build thatched houses by themselves?"

"Yeah." She nodded, and looked at the account book he brought over, "I can't let them keep ruining the temple, so I should do my best to help them."

Hearing this, Chen Yan raised his eyes to look at her. She was looking down at the ledger, with one hand casually resting on the table, and the other hand pressing the ledger spread out on the table.

She looks gentle, but she always makes him find something different.

"Li Yin...why didn't you come with me today?" He suddenly realized that there was no one beside her.

"Wanwan took him to play games, and I took the opportunity to sneak out." She raised her head, "Let's go and see the loom."

"Okay, the carpenter's house is not too far from here, just passing by." Chen Yan put away his thoughts, and returned to his usual seriousness.

After explaining to the steward below about the grain shop, Chen Fan and Xu Yuan went out to the carpenter's house to look at the loom.

The carpenter's house is indeed not far away as Chen Yan said, and the two of them arrived within a quarter of an hour after walking.

Chen Fan knocked on the door and went in. The carpenter seemed to be making a cabinet, and it was his wife who came to open the door.

"Hey, please come in." The woman was dry and thin, but her smile was very sincere.

The two followed her in, and the carpenter stopped what he was doing and told his wife, "Take the two of you to see the new loom I made."

The woman led them knowingly into the back room, where there were two sets, one of which was still hung with half-woven cloth, and the other was new, it could be seen that it had not been touched.

To say that this is Xu Yuan's first contact with this kind of thing, it's very novel to look at it from left to right, and it was only seen in history books before, but now it feels very different to see the real thing.

"Madam knows how to use this loom?" She looked at the woman, she should have woven the used loom.

"Hey, yes, I earn a little money by weaving when I'm free." The woman smiled innocently.

Xu Yuan stepped forward and touched the cloth she wove. The surface was smooth and delicate.

"Madam, can you show us?"

"Yes, yes." She went around and sat down in front of the loom, "This is easy to learn."

Xu Yuan stood aside and watched her flexible hands shuttle between the cloths, feeling interested in her.In fact, according to this weaving method, it is not difficult to study how to weave patterns on this cloth, as long as you can master certain rules.

"What do you think?" Chen Yan whispered in her ear.

"It's not bad." Xu Yuan walked to the other end and looked at the new loom. It could be seen that the carpenter's craftsmanship was very good, and the joints of various places were connected very tightly and firmly.

"Girl, my man's craftsmanship is one of the best in Yonghua City. You don't have to worry about this kind of workmanship." The woman stopped her hands, and when she mentioned her man, the expression on her face instantly turned into pride. All the shyness melted away.

Xu Yuan smiled: "I'm not worried about this, I just want to ask, how long does it take to make a loom?"

The woman scratched her head: "You still have to ask my man about this."

She led the two of them out of the back room again, and asked the man who kept moving, "Master, how long will you make this loom?"
