"It seems that the master's anger still hasn't subsided!" Wu Meiniang looked at the narrow distance in her hand and said in distress. She naturally encountered the same problem as Li Yun. The distance of one point is too short. It can't be divided into ten.
Since she couldn't clearly divide ten percent, Wu Meiniang had an idea and quickly thought of the same method as Li Yun. She went directly to the midpoint between one point and marked the fifth percent.
"Master, do you think this can help me?" Wu Meiniang said proudly on her face.
However, soon she couldn't laugh. She encountered the same problem that made Li Yun crazy. How to turn a Zhang long wooden ruler into one hand.
"How is this possible?" Wu Meiniang's scalp exploded.
How can you change a foot into the size of a palm? Wu Meiniang couldn't figure out how to do this, but she had an end of refusing to admit defeat. She locked herself in the room again and again and kept experimenting. Unfortunately, she failed again and again.
However, Merton saw all this in front of her and didn't provide her with any help at all. Wu Meiniang groped there alone.
"Is it too difficult for you to give Meiniang such a task!" Princess Changle stood beside Merton with worry.
Merton shook his head and said, "the suffering faced by Mojia village in the future is much more difficult than now. If this problem can not be solved, how to take charge of Mojia village in the future."
Princess Changle could not help sighing. The world guessed that Wu Meiniang would be in charge of the Mojia village in the future. Only princess Changle saw everything in her eyes. Merton never lied and trained Wu Meiniang as a successor from the beginning.
"This time, Shiniang can't help you?" Princess Changle looked at Wu Meiniang with no distractions and sighed helplessly.
Soon, the whole ink house knew Wu Meiniang's problems. They wanted to help each other, but they were powerless. Finally, they had to take good care of Wu Meiniang as much as possible.
"Mei Niang, have a cup of tea!" Fubo put a cup of freshly brewed tea next to Wu Mei Niang.
Wu Mei Niang nodded without raising her head. She picked up the steaming tea and was ready to pour it in her mouth. Fubo quickly stopped. When the tea was cold, she watched Wu Mei Niang drink it and shook her head and left.
"Meiniang, have a meal!" aunt fish had already been ordered by Fubo and waited until the food was not hot before she brought it up. And directly abandoned her best fish soup to prevent Wu Meiniang from being caught by fish bones.
"Thank you, aunt fish!" Wu Meiniang finished the meal and continued to experiment.
"Meiniang, it's time to rest!" Ziyi advised Wu Meiniang again. Wu Meiniang reluctantly put down her schoolwork and fell asleep for two hours. She suddenly got up and thought hard again.
For several days, Wu Meiniang was at a loss and still had no clue about Merton's schoolwork.
At this time, aunt Xu came in and saw Wu Meiniang, who was still intoxicated, distressed and said, "Meiniang, take a break first. It's going to summer. Let aunt Xu make some new summer clothes for you!"
Wu Meiniang is smart and lively. Everyone loves her in the ink house. Aunt Xu came to help Wu Meiniang make summer clothes this time. On the one hand, she was growing up. She couldn't wear last year's clothes. On the other hand, she took the opportunity to have a rest.
"Thank you, aunt Xu!"
Wu Mei Niang just raised her head, recovered from her hard thinking, got up skillfully and let aunt Xu measure her body.
"Meiniang, you've really grown a lot taller?" aunt Xu said with admiration as she measured.
Wu Meiniang has been living in the Mo mansion since she became a teacher of Merton. Without the harsh treatment in the Wu mansion before, her body grows very fast.
"Waist one and a half feet!"
Aunt Xu took a soft rope in her hand and measured it skillfully on Wu Meiniang's waist. After holding the soft rope and comparing it on the ruler, she solemnly reported a data.
Next, aunt Xu continued to be busy, measuring her legs, ankles, arms and neck circumference one by one. Since Merton made T-shirts, belts, trousers and other common clothes of later generations, the garment industry in Chang'an city immediately set off a trend of new garment making. The new garment making method of accurate measurement and fitting clothes, especially women's figure, was rapidly promoted.
This new style of clothes, collectively known as ink clothes, is far more popular than the previous wide clothes, and is rapidly occupying the market.
Of course, the most staunch supporter of ink clothes is Mojia village. All Mohists take the lead in wearing convenient and comfortable ink clothes. In this storm of ink clothes, aunt Xu, the imperial tailor of Merton, undoubtedly, whenever aunt Xu cuts an ink dress, it will always attract people's pursuit.
Aunt Xu carefully measured Wu Meiniang's figure, but she didn't find that Wu Meiniang's eyes were staring at the long rope wrapped around her body.
"Master, I finally understand!" Wu Meiniang burst into tears of joy. A Zhang long wooden ruler naturally can't be folded, but if the material used to make the ruler becomes soft, can't you easily hold a Zhang long ruler between your palms.
"What's the matter with the child?" aunt Xu quickly comforted Wu Meiniang when she saw her tears.
Although Wu Meiniang was still a teenager, she quickly controlled her emotions. He quickly wiped away his tears, burst into tears and said with a smile, "thank you, aunt Xu. When I make an accurate and soft ruler, aunt Xu won't have to take so much trouble."
"Aunt Xu is waiting for the good news from Meiniang." aunt Xu said with a pleased face.
After Wu Meiniang had the inspiration, she was in high spirits. She was in the Mohist village. It can be said that she was extremely favored. Wherever she went, she would naturally echo.
"I want the best and tightest cloth rope, and I want to weave it into a finger wide and five centimeter thick strip rope." Wu Meiniang asked Mojia village directly.
Naturally, Mojia village has heard of Merton's schoolwork. After hearing Wu Meiniang's orders, they immediately brainstormed. In only one day, several ten foot long cloth ropes have been sent to Wu Meiniang.
Wu Meiniang looked at the cloth rope in front of her and nodded with satisfaction. Under the superb technology of Mojia village, the cloth rope was extremely fine, and the softness was moderate, which was very in line with her requirements.
Later, Wu Meiniang took the cloth rope and directly killed the ink magazine. She asked the ink three: "third uncle, I want the best ink for the ink magazine."
For Wu Meiniang's request, Mo San naturally met it without doubt.
Various conditions have been met. Soon, a cloth ruler, one foot long and accurate to one centimeter, rolled up and just held in one palm, appeared in front of Wu Meiniang.
"Meiniang, you're so powerful! This time you'll impress the young master." aunt Xu happily holds this cloth ruler. She usually measures clothes with a long rope and then measures the data with a wooden ruler. With this soft cloth ruler, she can easily measure clothes and don't have to worry about making mistakes any more.
Wu Meiniang couldn't help showing a proud expression, but she didn't relax. Instead, she shook her head and said, "such a cloth ruler is very convenient for Aunt Xu. However, for the children of Mohism, there are still some troubles. Meiniang needs to make another improvement."
In aunt Xu's surprised eyes, Wu Meiniang will take out a palm sized wooden box, fix one end of the cloth ruler in the wooden box, and then close the wooden box tightly.
I saw a small handle on one side of the wooden box. With Wu Meiniang gently shaking the handle, a Zhang long wooden ruler was slowly included in the wooden box.
As Wu Meiniang stuck the end of the cloth rope at the exit, a palm size, accurate to centigrade, a ten foot long ruler was finally made.
"This is my schoolwork, tape measure!" Wu Meiniang said proudly.
