Since the Spring Equinox, Wanda's store has had more business travelers passing by, and has taken over a big business from Sun Houpu. The number of sporadic small businesses has gradually increased. As the saying goes, gathering a small amount makes a lot, and gathering sand makes a tower. When the business is low, there are still dozens of them. When there is a lot of business, there will be hundreds or two hundred baskets.
This kind of goods does not require a lot of capital, but it is used by all walks of life. Bamboo baskets can be used to transport goods. It is also a type of fast-moving goods. People traveling from north to south often carry bamboo baskets with them. The bamboo baskets in the mountains can be transported when they come and sold when they leave.
The steady flow of water unknowingly accumulated a considerable amount of wealth for Liang Chuan. Although most of the wages were returned to the village girls who worked in the village, there were only a few of them, and 20% was still considerable.
Several couples in the shop announced when they first opened the shop that they would offer 500 taels of silver to anyone who came out. You must know that the county reward for heroes who fight tigers is only 300 taels of silver. There must be a brave man under the heavy gold, but there may not be any. Wise man, in the past nearly four months, many literati and elegant people have come to the store, but they all came in excitement and came back in disgust. The red silk of the third pair was already covered with dust, and Ye Xiaochai had to clean it from time to time.
The Fengshan Wanda store was too small and not very popular. There used to be a picture of a tiger descending the mountain from Liangchuan Dafeishan banditry hanging in the store, but the shopkeeper ruined the image of the tiger, so Liang Chuan simply took the picture back. He built his new home and hung it in the middle of the main hall. It is said that a good horse has a good saddle, but in a different environment, this picture is indeed not in vain. The whole hall is filled with momentum and overwhelming power. There were also several paintings that Liang Chuan never even looked at. Later, he showed them to Meng Liangchen for appreciation. They turned out to be famous paintings from the previous dynasty, and they were all treasures that had been lost for many years. I don’t know how they got into the hands of this rough man!
When Liang Chuan heard that he was overjoyed, he did not hesitate. If there was any blank space on the wall at home, he would hang it. He would also hang another one on the wall next to the main hall. He would also hang one in the Tsinghua Academy to give students a long experience, including a figure painting and a landscape painting. , what a name, how could Liang Chuan know! Just a good painting!
Liang Chuan asked He Baozheng to go to Fengshan to hire a tailor. The students of Tsinghua Academy must have uniform uniforms in the future. They can no longer be colorful and mixed. They do not have the temperament of a thousand-year-old prestigious school! The tailor was sitting on He Baozheng's bullock cart. The wheels creaked and swayed, and his old bones were almost shaken to pieces. The longer the cart went, the farther he went. The more he sat, the more frightened he became.
I was overjoyed when I received a big order. I had eighteen sets of clothes made at once. This is usually two months' business volume, but who would have thought that when we walked into this wilderness, we were almost at the foot of Dashen. The houses were more dilapidated than the others, and everyone looked poorer than the last. I haven't been here for more than ten years. This person across the river is custom-making clothes. Will he be fooled by this bullshit Baozheng?
It wasn't until he saw Liang Chuan's big house at the foot of the mountain that the tailor felt reassured. It was really not a lie.
Eighteen dirty half-grown men happily lined up in an orderly manner to have the tailor measure the height and width. There was no pushing or making any noise. The old tailor had lived a lifetime, and secretly cursed that he had seen a ghost. What kind of place was this? It was an inaccessible place. Could it be the realm of the underworld? Where in this world can there be a kind person who makes new clothes for poor children and dresses them up so that they can be sold at a high price? Are these brats so obedient? Where do the little devils not go into trouble when they see new clothes, fearing that they will be late and lose their share?
The representative clothing of the literati in the Song Dynasty was a round-necked blouse, a scarf or a futou on the head, trousers on the bottom, and boots. Although the sleeves vary in width, they are relatively moderate, neither too wide nor too narrow, but the body is relatively loose. Liang Chuan ordered eighteen sets according to the height and fatness of the students in one go, one for each hand. A white lotus was specially embroidered on the t-shirts, which symbolizes water and wood, and Tsinghua University. This is the unified school uniform of Tsinghua University.
Customizing takes some time, and the children kept asking the tailor when the new clothes would be ready. No hurries? Although your clothes are small, it is not easy to cut them. Besides, eighteen sets were ordered at once. The old man did not eat or drink. It would take seven or eight days to recruit the shop assistants and apprentices to complete the whole shop!
The Dragon Boat Festival is regarded by some as the summer solstice. Although the weather is not that hot yet, people will become dizzy and blackened within a short time under the scorching sun. Farm work in the fields can be done in the morning and evening. At noon, if you work for a while, you may suffer from heatstroke and cold. .
Liang Chuan still remembers the red-toothed centipede that was cleared out of the He family's ancestral hall that day by Jingxue. After it was dried, it was soaked in wine. During the Dragon Boat Festival, all things flourish, the stems are mature and the leaves are fertile. At this time, poisonous insects, snakes and ants are also the most active and rampant.
When a new home is just moved into the house, the work of avoiding insects and rats should be carried out in time. If a centipede comes in and bites it, where can I go to treat it?
Liang Chuan never had to worry about family matters. Yi Niang was really the other half of our Han nation for thousands of years, an excellent example of a virtuous and virtuous wife. She dried in the sun and moisture during the Spring Equinox, drove away insects and hung red, offered sacrifices to the gods during the Qingming Festival, and cooked rice dumplings to warm her during the Dragon Boat Festival. Realgar, Liang Chuan doesn't need to be told to say anything. Before Liang Chuan realizes it's the Dragon Boat Festival, Yi Niang has already washed the wild rice leaves and washed the glutinous rice.
This virtuous hostess possesses all the excellent qualities of a traditional Chinese woman. She works hard and has no regrets. Although Liang Chuan is reluctant to let her endure hardship, she rushes to take care of the family affairs. She never takes care of Ye Xiaochai and the other three. They are bossing around now, but they are always in her heart. They are family members and sisters!
Women are most afraid of female insects such as toads and centipedes, but for the sake of their families, women will go to the mountains to hunt tigers and go to the sea to catch dragons. The skinny toad is hiding in the Dragon Boat Festival, and the artist has been wandering in the fields and fields in the dark with a lantern in the ditch for the past few days and nights. Specially select large toads, squeeze out the poisonous juice from the eyeballs, mix them with flour, and dry them in the hot sun for later use, which can relieve heat.
Liang Chuan thought that Yi Niang was busy cooking a pot of hot pot bullfrog for him, but when he came closer, he saw that the frog's back was covered with bean-sized lumps, which scared Liang Chuan and screamed repeatedly. This is not a bullfrog or a frog, it is clearly a toad! Toads are highly poisonous, so ink tablets are stuffed into the toad's mouth and processed into Chinese medicine. In ancient times, gangrene could kill people, and Fan Zengxuda died from this disease. Draw a circle of poisonous gangrene with toad ink, and the gangrene can be controlled. In this era of urgent shortage of medicines, this can be regarded as a home-made life-saving medicine.
The Ai flag attracts hundreds of blessings, and the Pu sword kills thousands of evil spirits. The mother-in-law of the house also prepared the medicine. Realgar, rhubarb, cypress, peach kernel, cattail leaf and mugwort leaves were soaked in wine, mixed with calamus and mugwort leaves and sprinkled on the corners, under the bed and on the window lattice. The five poisons are most afraid of these few. It is a drug that produces a peculiar fragrance that mosquitoes are disgusted with and actively hide away from.
It stands to reason that the family has settled down now, has enough food and clothing, no worries about wind and rain, the family is full of life, and everyone is harmonious and harmonious. But Liang Chuan vaguely discovered that since Yi Niang moved, in addition to smiling in front of others, she soon felt a sense of resentment when she returned to the room. Could it be that he had done something to feel sorry for her?
At night, the Milky Way is filled with pearl-like stars. The sky is high and clear, and the mountain breeze caresses your cheeks gently. Sitting on the patio at night, leaning on the rocking chair, you can look up at the stars in the sky. The school has long been closed and classes have ended. Liang Chuan has arranged a duty system. Because of writing, there is some fine sand scattered on the ground, and someone has to clean it up. The last child who finished cleaning said hello to Meng Liangchen, made a bow, and then skipped home.
Wangxiang during the day and night are like two worlds. There are no immature children's voices, only the chirping of insects in the mountains. Liang Chuan wanted to sit down and chat with Yi Niang about what was on his mind, but Yi Niang entered the room quietly. Liang Chuan looked up at the time and saw that it was still early. Yi Niang must have something on her mind, otherwise she would not go to bed so early.
After coming to this world, if Liang Chuan had a choice, anything could happen to anyone, but not her.
Liang Chuan tiptoed into the room and lit a plate of mosquito-repellent incense on the edge of the bed, with wisps of green smoke drifting along the edge of the bed. The room was quiet, and the spark from the oil lamp had just been extinguished. The breeze playfully passed through the window lattice, lifted up the white gauze on the bed, and messed up the wisp of smoke.
A sheet of green silk ice was lightly covered on Yi Niang's body, wrapping her graceful figure even more tightly. This was a gift from Shitou on the day he moved into the house. Liang Chuan fell in love with this high-end product after just one night's sleep. When Yi Niang heard Liang Chuan's footsteps, her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly. Liang Chuan was worried about Yi Niang's body and suppressed the evil fire in his body. He put his hand on Yi Niang's forehead and felt the temperature of her body.
There is something on Yi Niang's mind, her mood is already depressed, she just lies on the bed and takes a nap. Touched by the warm back of Liang Chuan's hand, her body trembled violently. She was a little scared but also a little expectant. Really, Yi Niang really hated herself. Why was her body so sensitive to what she was expecting. . .
It feels slightly cool to the touch, not like being sick. "Yiniang, are you okay?" Liang Chuan's tone was filled with anxiety and urgency.
Yi Niang became even more nervous when she heard his gentle and honest voice, her body tensed up and she was trembling slightly. . Seeing this scene, Liang Chuan became even more anxious, his calloused big hands gently caressing Yi Niang's petite body. Yi Niang already had some spring in her heart, but as soon as Liang Chuan got started, she felt so full of spring that she couldn't help but let out a coquettish cry.
"This..." Liang Chuan was puzzled at first, but after a moment, he turned around and was overjoyed! I cursed in my heart, I don’t understand the style! He quickly jumped out of bed, untied his clothes, rolled over on the bed, wrapped his long arms around Yi Niang's body, pulled him into his arms, and whispered in Yi Niang's ear, "Yi Niang... I want it!"
Yi Niang's body was already hot, and her pretty face was as red as a peach. She was too shy to raise her head, she snuggled up and buried herself deep in Liang Chuan's chest, and responded softly: "Yeah . . ”
Liang Chuan was galloping, killing in all directions. The smoke of the battlefield could not subside for a long time. The charming breath echoed in the house. There was a different sound of blending in the quiet night. The whole house was quiet and distinct, making people blush. Gotta be a little tipsy.
The tide of love slowly receded in the middle of the night.
Yi Niang was exhausted from being tortured by Liang Chuan. . Liang Chuan was still unfinished. The eyelids of Yi Niang in his arms were a little heavy. Liang Chuan was worried that he would ask for too much, get sicker, and lose his vitality. He asked, "Why do you look so listless these days, Yi Niang? What happened?"
For a while, Yunyu Yi Niang was depressed and Gu Kai didn't have anything else on her mind. She just said resentfully: "Xiao Chai and the others have been asking me, after so many years, why is there still no movement in my belly..."
It turns out this is it! Alas, Liang Chuan wished he could slap himself. Yi Niang is now an old girl. She has been pregnant for a long time. There must be people in the village talking about it. They blame themselves for never cultivating their own private land and scattering some seeds. Others' I pay a lot of attention to my family's land.
Yi Niang continued: "Xiao Chai and the others said that you are now a big shot in Fengshan, and the vixens in the village look at you with eyes that can be cannibalistic. If I can't help you renew Liang Chuan's incense, you will become so charming when you are old and yellow. You will have a chance to take advantage of me, and then you won’t want me anymore..." Yi Niang’s voice gradually became softer as she spoke, becoming more and more aggrieved as she spoke. Although the lights in the room were not bright, Liang Chuan could clearly see the tears in his eyes, which made him feel heartbroken.
"Idiot, don't you just want a child? If once a day doesn't work, let's do it twice. If twice a day doesn't work, let's do it four times. How can one child be enough? We want to have a litter of him!"
Yi Niang burst into tears and smiled, "Then I will no longer be a sow."
