Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted because there was a rough and warm touch on his right hand, and then, he had the same oil paper bag in his hand as last night.
But what was different from last night was that something flashed across his eyes, and there was something hard in his arms.
There was also a deep voice in my ear: "I made it this afternoon. Please put it on and take a look."
After saying these words, the man strode away quickly, disappearing into the darkness in a few seconds.
Tao Zhu: "..."
His heart beat faster and his pace quickened.
When he got home, the yard was dark and everyone in his family was asleep.
Sitting in the yard, he reached into his arms and took out the hard thing.
This is a peach wood hairpin, polished very smooth and slightly curved. There is no decoration on it, but it is smooth and looks inexplicably grand.
This person...
Tao Zhu bit her lip tightly, naturally happy.
But thinking about the huge gap between him and this person, he felt like a big stone was weighing on his heart.
Besides, even if this man is blind and doesn't care about the opinions of others, what will his elder brother do in this step?
Li Qiao didn't know Tao Zhu's sorrow for the time being.
He went home and fell asleep. Tomorrow was another fish selling day.
After selling the fish, he went to the blacksmith shop to get five scythes, and then returned to the village.
In the evening, he, Zhuang Fengshou, Zhuang Wu, Zhuang Zhuang and three other people went to the willow tree at the entrance of the village.
When they arrived, there were already more than twenty people waiting under the willow tree.
Mai Lian teaching officially begins.

The author has something to say:
The Li buckwheat was still successfully fed today!
So, can you guys have some fun and collect? kisses!
Chapter 12: His net worth has soared, and everyone wants to introduce Li Qiao to his daughter-in-law.
The wheat sickle that Li Qiao made today was made for the five families who lent the money to Yuan Shen, so now people from these five families have come.
Li Liang has also arrived. Today, the villagers are still testing the various functions of the wheat sickle, and it is not his turn to cut the wheat.
Of course, he has a lot of work at home. Wheat harvesting is not just about cutting wheat, but also taking the wheat to the threshing field for threshing.
But thinking that this was Xiaoqiao's first time "doing something big", he came over to take a look.
Li Qiao was holding a large scythe and a pile of wooden sticks of different sizes.
Zhuang Wu and three other people who had time and were willing to teach the villagers how to do it for free took the remaining four scythes and the same wooden sticks.
In the confused eyes of the onlookers, Li Qiao explained while assembling, doing each step very slowly so that everyone present could see clearly.
In fact, making a wooden fence is very simple, but in order to make the process simpler and more convenient, Li Qiao first prepared all the wooden sticks and nails used in advance, and then assembled them one by one according to the drawings.
The drawings were drawn by him, and the pen and ink were provided by Zhuang Fengshou.
In this way, this wooden fence is like the various assembly racks that are very popular on the Internet. As long as there are drawings, many people can assemble it.
After the wooden fence is completed, it is tied directly to the scythe, and the wheat scythe is ready.
The villagers under the willow tree opened their eyes wide. They had all seen carpenters working, and they themselves knew some simple craftsmanship, but this was the first time they had seen this assembly method!
"This...can this still happen?"
"Why is it like playing?"
"It looks pretty simple, I can do it too!"
…
"This is indeed very simple. I'm very skilled at it. You guys can look at me!"
The manor didn't have a scythe on hand, but yesterday Li Qiao and his second uncle Zhuang Wu cut down three trees on the mountain and prepared a lot of sticks for making wooden fences.
Because Li Qiao was teaching just now, he followed Li Qiao's rhythm step by step.
But at this time he couldn't hold it anymore. He took the wooden sticks of various sizes required for the wooden fence, brushed them, and assembled a wooden fence in less than three minutes.
Everyone was even more shocked now.
Good guy, the assembly speed can be so fast?
The manor looked at everyone's amazed and disbelieving eyes, and shook the wooden fence in his hand with a smile: "Brother Qiao came up with this idea, even my grandfather clapped his thighs and exclaimed it was wonderful. From now on, everyone wants to make wheat sickle, Just cut the small stick first, it’s easy!”
Li Qiao also smiled and said: "Uncle Wu, Xiaoyuan and I whittled a lot of sticks yesterday. If you guys want to try it, you can try it now."
He pointed to the bullock cart nearby.
There were two sacks on it, and inside the sacks were bundles of sticks of various sizes.
"I want to try!"
Li Liang was the first to respond and walked towards the bullock cart.
Not to be outdone, the remaining people hurried over and walked over. They originally thought that the production of Maiyan was difficult and serious, but now they looked like playing house, playful and relaxed!
"Well, that's it, just follow the drawing on the drawing. Of course, you can also compare it to what I did..."
Li Qiao, Zhuang Wu, Zhuang Zhuang, the other three villagers, and even Zhuang Fengshou, all smiled and pointed out how to assemble it.
It was the first time for these villagers to come into contact with such an object. It was very novel. However, the production of wooden fences was really simple. With the physical objects, drawings, and real people's guidance, they quickly assembled the wooden fences in their hands.
Looking at the physical objects in their hands, these people are in a good mood.
"This is so simple, I think my seven-year-old son can make it."
"Li Qiao is indeed a well-educated person. He is able to come up with such a good idea. He has such a good mind."
"That's right, after all, Li Qiao is the most powerful."
They began to praise the buckwheat.
Sitting aside, Li Liang straightened his back and grinned to the back of his ears: "Xiao Qiao was spoiled in the past, but he is actually smart."
This statement attracted everyone's agreement.
Isn’t that right? You’re not smart enough to come up with such a method?
"Li Qiao, I have grown a lot of cucumbers at home. I will send you some later."
Zhang Xiuhua said with a smile.
No wonder Li Qiao doesn’t require any manual labor, it’s really simple.
But Li Qiao kept her word and insisted on making wheat flour for her family. In this case, she would send some vegetables over.
At this time of year, no one in the village is short of vegetables.
After Zhang Xiuhua finished speaking, others spoke one after another: "My family grows a lot of eggplants and buckwheat. I will send some over later for you to try."
"I have leeks at home, but they are very juicy!"
"my home……"
Li Qiao quickly waved his hand, he couldn't eat so many vegetables by himself.
Moreover, he has been eating in the county town recently. If he starts the fire himself, he will just cook some porridge.
"Then Li Qiao, why don't you come to my house for dinner tonight?" Butcher Zheng said.
Originally he didn't want to ask for the wheat sickle in vain, but Li Qiao had to give it to him, so he wanted to treat Li Qiao to a meal.
After hearing this, others followed suit and wanted to treat Li Qiao to dinner.
Li Qiao still waved his hand. He had to go to the river to catch fish at 11:30 in the night. It was already after six o'clock now. He had to go home and go to bed early, otherwise he would not be able to carry it tomorrow.
After hearing this explanation, everyone couldn't help but sigh. Li Qiao suddenly became the most diligent young man in the village who was willing to endure hardships.
Zhang Xiuhua smiled and said to Li Liang: "Li Qiao is now willing to endure hardships and still make progress. It's time for you to marry him a wife."
Li Liang laughed and said, "I've been thinking about it these past two days. It's very hard for him to sell fish alone. He needs to find a virtuous wife to take care of the house. We can't let him not even have a hot meal after a hard day's work."
"Everyone has seen that Xiaoqiao has changed his personality. If you have any suitable girls and boys, you can introduce them to them."
After hearing this, many people present agreed.
Everyone is not a fool. Li Qiao can make seven scythes just by selling fish for a few days. At this rate, his gambling debt will be paid off soon.
In addition, he is hard-working, capable, grateful, good-looking, and his parents are both dead.
Tsk.
He is indeed a good son.
Facing everyone's gaze, which was like looking at goods, Li Qiao suddenly had black lines on his head. If this reached Brother Zhu's ears, Brother Zhu would definitely be very uncomfortable.
He immediately said: "Thank you all for your kindness, but actually..."
Shyness crawled onto his delicate cheeks. He touched his nose and lowered his eyes, looking embarrassed.
"Actually, I have someone I like. When I save enough money, I will come to propose marriage, so I won't bother everyone."
As soon as these words came out, Li Liang was shocked: "Xiao Qiao, whose girl or boy do you like?"
Everyone else also looked curious. Did Li Qiao already have a target?
"I can't say it now. I have gambling debts, and I haven't even finished my horoscope yet. When I find a long-term job again, or pay off my gambling debts, I will come directly."
Li Qiao still looked shy.
But after others heard this, they couldn't calm down.
Looking for another long-term career?
