Chapter 18 Small jacket and military coat
Thinking of Western-style snacks, Qixun thought of a question: "Second brother, you have caught so many chickens, but you don't have any eggs?"
"Yes, I don't have a place to store it, it's all in Uncle Lu's back. He said I'll give it half."
Milk is impossible to count on. If you want to supplement protein, eggs and tofu are the best choices.
Her family had raised a few chickens before. When Dad Qiuwei was in high school, all the guests in the family were slaughtered.
I have to buy a few chicks to come back.
Now the family is poor and poor. To live a good life, there are really a lot of things to do.
Now the problem of eating is solved. Although the living is not good, at least there is no problem with sheltering from the wind and rain. Wearing warm clothes is the first solution.
Nichihiro hit the rabbit with his idea.
Rabbit fur is a good thing. Raising rabbits is actually a good choice. This thing reproduces fast. It's easier to raise than chickens. When she went back, she made a spinning wheel and spun rabbit wool. With the wool, she could knit sweaters, scarves, gloves and socks. Maybe she could form an industrial chain and solve some employment problems for Yanjia Village.
The people of the ethnic group also want to keep warm while farming. If they want to save some money, most people can only rely on part-time labor.
In fact, the key to health also lies in silver.
Qixun said to Gongyu Hao, "Second brother, this time, the two rabbits with the best coat color are selected and kept at home. Later, we will go into the mountains and catch more rabbits."
Gong Yuhao said there was no problem.
Lingsu killed the chicken and went to make soup, and drove the two out of the kitchen.
Qixun simply went back to the house and drew a drawing of the spinning wheel on the kang table.
She is proficient in mechanical manufacturing and has a habit of collecting. Basically, she has a complete collection of ancient mechanical craft drawings, ranging from civilian to military. The structural diagrams are all in her head. So the bow and arrow, the spinning wheel and the weaving wheel, for her, it is a matter of moving hands.
It’s a pity that there are no woodworking tools at home.
She missed her own space very much.
Seeing her writing and painting there, Lingyu came over curiously: "Fourth sister, what are you painting?"
"Spinning wheel. Didn't the second brother catch a lot of rabbits? I want to raise rabbits, and then spin rabbit wool and knit sweaters and pants. When it's colder, I wear them in cotton clothes, which are close to the body, light and warm."
Gongyu Mingxi, who was sitting on the kang and continuing to sew cotton-padded clothes after rolling out the noodles, laughed: "Why do you think it's one thing, you kid."
Qi Xun said with a smile: "Mother, it's not about your daughter, I think too much, the key is that I am strong in action. Although the third sister and the younger sister are both powerful, obedient and sensible, they are your sweet little padded jackets, but I don't. It's the same, I'm a military coat, it doesn't look good if it's close to the body, but I can't prepare it for practical use."
What the **** is a military coat?
Gongyu Mingxi glanced at her, too lazy to talk about her again.
In short, this child is already very naughty, and after restoring the memory of his previous life, he wants to come out even more.
That's all, she can do whatever she likes.
Qixun asked Gongyu Mingxi while drawing pictures, "Mother, is there a carpenter in our village?"
"Yes, the patriarch has a house who does carpentry. Both father and son are carpenters, and their craftsmanship is not bad. Why, do you want someone to do this spinning wheel?"
Qixun shook his head: "I made it myself, I just wanted to borrow a set of woodworking tools from others."
Gongyu Mingxi denied it: "That can't be done. How can people easily borrow things for their meals? Besides, if you are a little girl, people can borrow them, so don't worry about it."
This is a problem.
She has a lot of things to do. The woodworking tools will be commonly used in the future, so it is best to buy them.
It’s a pity that I don’t have money now.
So Guan Jian is still silver.
After Qixun asked which carpenter's house was, he thought about going to ask them about how much money a set of tools would cost tomorrow. When you save money, go buy a set.
In addition, some parts are made of iron and need to be customized in a blacksmith shop.
She planned to draw the spinning wheel diagram first, and then the component diagram.
Seeing the sun set and the room darkened, Gongyu Mingxi asked her to put away the pen and paper: "I'll draw tomorrow in the daytime."
The light is not enough, whether it is reading or writing, it hurts the eyes.
As he was talking, Grandma Zuo brought eggs, half a basket full of eggs, making Qixun very happy.
Zuo's grandma and Gongyu Mingxi gossip: "Your little Erlang was detained by his father to study before, but he really didn't realize that this child is actually a good hunter. My elder brother came back today with so many prey, Something that has never happened before really shocked me. Dalang praised your little Erlang, saying that this child is very capable. My Dalang is actually in the light of Xiaoerlang today. "
When his son was praised, Gongyu Mingxi was very beautiful in his heart, but his face was modest: "What does he know as a little guy? It's just Brother Lu taking care of him. It should be our second child who got the light of his Uncle Lu. "
Grandma Zuo smiled and said, "Don't be polite to me, if it wasn't for Xiao Erlang, how could he get so many prey today? Dalang said that he would go to the county town to sell tomorrow, how could he be able to sell one or two silver coins. Dad's medicine is gone, I was worried before, but now I don't need to worry about the money to buy medicine."
When my grandfather was still alive, grandpa Zuo’s body was helped by my grandfather to recuperate, and many medicines could be picked up in the mountains, so it didn’t cost much money. In the past few years after my grandfather's death, Zuo's grandfather spent a lot of money on asking for medicine.
Qi Xun thought of the medical skills of his third sister, even though his grandfather was a retired doctor, but in terms of medical skills, the third sister was probably better than his old man.
Qixun said: "Go back and ask the third sister to take the pulse of Grandpa. See if the medicine needs to be adjusted."
Gongyu Mingxi also nodded: "Let Lingsu show her grandpa."
Seeing the Zuo family's grandma Nahan, Gongyu Mingxi explained with a smile: "The third girl has also learned medical skills from her grandfather since she was a child. Her grandfather said in private that she is extremely talented in medical skills, but she was young before. , and it belongs to the girl's family, and we didn't mention it to the outside world. She is considered to have learned it now. Her medical skills are no worse than her grandfather. Your grandfather hasn't adjusted his recipes for more than a year, so I didn't mention it. But I think it's time to adjust the recipes. Your grandfather is not an outsider, and Lingsu can be regarded as a child who grew up watching him. Granddaughter, it's not a problem to see your grandfather."
The grandma of the Zuo family was very happy when she heard it. The old man Gongyu was an imperial doctor from the capital. Since Gongyu Mingxi said that Lingsu girl's medical skills were no worse than her husband, it must be excellent.
She hurriedly said: "Then I have to thank Su girl. This autumn, her grandfather will not feel better. She has been taking the previous prescription, and it is getting worse. Dalangyuan also said that she will save some money later. , take the old man into the county town to find the hospital and have a look."
Gongyu Mingxi then instructed Qixun: "You can help the third sister to see the fire, and let your third sister go with your grandma to show your grandfather. If you adjust the prescription, just when your uncle Lu goes to the county, you will be able to get it. Take the medicine back."
Qixun went to call Lingsu.
Lingsu naturally responds.
When Lingsu came back, Gongyu Mingxi asked, "How is your grandfather's body? Can you take care of it?"
