Chapter 144: Cotton cotton pattern

Dugu Huanxu said in surprise: "That's really good, did you come up with this yourself?"

Nangong Anshan coughed lightly and said, "Most of them are not. For example, the flying shuttle was written in an ancient book I read, and the spinning machine was also invented by me from an ancient book. No one is me."

Dugu Huanxu said: "The one who invented these things is really amazing."

"I feel so too."

Xiao Ruiyan looked at the white thing next to him, and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"It's cotton, this time I plan to make cotton directly."

"Cotton? Cotton? What is cotton? What is cotton?"

"Cotton grows from the soil, and I have grown a lot of it in my field. I bought the cotton from a passing merchant. The cloth made of cotton is cotton cloth. It's not that I have a prejudice against linen, but Clothes made of cotton are really more comfortable."

Dugu Huanxu asked: "For example?"

Nangong Anshan said: "Cotton cloth has good elasticity and moisture retention, and it fits the human skin better. It doesn't make people feel stuffy, and it feels very comfortable to the touch. Even if people sweat, it can quickly absorb and restore the body temperature to normal. Better to use."

Xiao Rui said: "Then, is cotton cloth better than linen cloth?"

Nangong Anshan said: "Each has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, in terms of dyeing, linen is better than cotton, and it is not easy to fade. If cotton really comes out, cotton must be more expensive than linen. One thing I like about cotton is that cotton is more expensive than cotton. It is soft, and it is more comfortable to wear, and it is also more comfortable to cover with a quilt cover, which is much better than linen."

Xiao Ruishen said: "Really? Why don't I feel it?"

Xiao Ruiyan said helplessly: "Ah Shen, you only wear silk fabrics. You have never worn linen since you were born in this life. Of course you don't feel it."

"Oh I got it."

Dugu Huanxu said: "Ashan, can you show me, I want to see how you weave cotton cloth."

Nangong Anshan said: "Yes, but it will start from spinning, the speed will be slower, and you will have to wait for a while."

Dugu Huanxu said: "Yes."

If cotton cloth is really made and has as many benefits as she said, then the common people will be blessed.

Nangong Anshan turned her head and told her brothers and sisters to prepare fruit snacks, letting them sit by and watch.

She first brought the cotton in front of the spinning machine. After some processing, the cotton turned into cotton threads one after another. Everyone who watched was amazed.

She felt that the cotton thread was almost finished, so she took it to the loom for processing.

Before weaving, she said: "Originally, this loom can weave patterns, but my cotton thread is not dyed, so today I can only weave cloth of one color."

After speaking, she began to weave.

Everyone saw her moving quickly.

Some people have never seen a loom, so they can't see how fast Nangong Anshan is.

Yang Ruolan and the four maids in her family have seen how slow ordinary looms are. They were extremely surprised to see how fast Nangong Anshan was and how quickly the cloth was woven.

Yang Ruolan sighed: "This is too fast."

Yingqin said: "Yes, it is more than half faster than the looms I saw before, and this cloth is also wider."

Yingqi said: "That's right, the speed of that shuttle is really fast."

Dugu Huanxu frowned, is it really faster than ordinary looms?

It seems that after he goes back, he should go and see for himself how the cloth is woven.

After a long time, Nangong Anshan said: "Everyone, come and have a look, this is cotton cloth."

She didn’t knit much, as long as she could see that it was a piece of cloth, she could know what cotton felt like.

Dugu Huanxu and others quickly stepped forward to check, and everyone touched it with their hands.

"It feels really good."

"I have touched sackcloth, and it is indeed more comfortable than sackcloth."

"This cotton cloth is much finer than linen."



Nangong Anshan smiled and said: "In fact, cotton can not only be used to make cotton thread, but also can be used to make padded clothes, quilts, and pillow cores. You rich and noble families can use animal fur to keep out the cold. Ordinary people can only use all kinds of wadding, but wadding is not. Cotton is warm."

With this cotton, her family will not have to worry about it this winter.

Although her family can also wear animal fur, she was used to cotton coats and down jackets in her previous life, so she didn't want to wear such heavy fur on her body.

By the way, she will research the down jacket after a while, which is lighter and more comfortable to wear.

Everyone was surprised at the same time.

Dugu Huanxu said: "Ashan, what you said is true? Does this cotton really have so many uses?"

Nangong Anshan nodded: "Yes, how could I lie to you."

Dugu Huanxu excitedly said: "Then can you show me how to make clothes and quilts with cotton?"

"Of course, but I have to finish the loom. My loom can not only weave cotton, but also weave silk. I can weave patterns on silk. After I have done every kind , I’ll help you do it.”

"Okay." After speaking, Dugu Huanxu glanced at the whole yard, looked at a room and said, "I can stay and help you, and Feng Yuan and Feng Yun can also help, so I'll live in that room."

Cotton can be related to the future life of the people, and he must pay attention to it.

"..." Nangong Anshan: "Well, since A Xu is kind, I can't refuse, but I only have that empty room in my house, so I can only wrong the three of you, master and servant."

"It's okay, it should be."

Nangong Anshan began to fiddle with her loom again, this time she was going to experiment with silk and weave patterns on the silk.

Silk threads of various colors are already prepared by her, and they can be used directly from her storage room.

Just to weave patterns, two people must cooperate, and the other person needs to sit on top of the loom.

Nangong Anshan glanced at the surrounding people, and said: "Feng Yuan, you can go to the top, my second brother is in charge of the workshop, and the third brother is not convenient, and my brothers and sisters are still young, so I really don't trust them to go up. "

As for the servants at home, she didn't consider asking them to help for the time being.

Since Dugu Huanxu has good intentions, she always wants to use Fengyun a little bit.

Feng Yuan nodded and quickly arrived at the location designated by Nangong Anshan.

Nangong Anshan processed the silk thread, arranged the arrangement, and then started weaving.

When she reached the pattern, she began to teach Feng Yuan how to weave the pattern.

After an hour, a piece of silk with a peony pattern was partially woven.

Seeing the patterns formed, Nangong Anshan stopped her movements, turned her head and said, "You can come over and have a look, the patterns have already appeared."
