Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

This stuff is good.

Zhao Yeqing found a large, sturdy wooden box in the house, the kind with a lid, a bit like the kind commonly seen in costume dramas where escorts carry money. It was very old-school and was found in the elderly room of this family.

After taking out the old clothes inside, I also found several pieces of old-fashioned jewelry at the bottom of the box.

It is estimated to be the old man's dowry or a family heirloom.

The purity of gold jewelry in those days was not as high as it is now. Some places would be mixed with black dots. For a set of gold and jade jewelry, the jade was carefully brushed with a layer of oil when it was stored. It has not been used for so many years. Human hands have not become rough either.

There are also some relatively simple silver jewelry, which look like old silver and have become dull without being worn for many years.

The style was not what Zhao Yeqing liked, and it was a bit old-fashioned. She didn't take it away, but buried it in the land next to their house together with the bones downstairs.

The two took away their clothes and their oil press. Just digging a small pit to hold the bones was not too tiring, and it allowed the owner of the family to return to his roots.

The house where Mu Xi got the cart was also the largest in the neighborhood. The three-story brick building was considered the most wealthy in the village on the mountain.

When Zhao Yeqing walked to the first floor of their house, he couldn't help laughing. The younger generation of this family should be somewhat promising. They took the money and came back to their hometown to build a big house for the old man, but the old man still kept the style on the first floor. A very heroic tiled stall is built to raise pigs.

There were withered and rotten leaves of some kind of plant piled on the floor outside the corral, probably pigweed for feeding pigs, and there was a chicken coop next to another door.

A perfect combination of European luxury and Chinese rural style, even the lights above the pig pens are in the style of small crystal chandeliers.

Zhao Yeqing was very happy when he saw that the door on the second floor had been opened and asked, "Did you open this door?"

Mu Xi dragged the small truck back and parked it at the door. He took a breath and replied, "I drove it. I went up to take a look. I was afraid that another bone would fall out and scare some timid people."

With this kind of mouth, anything that comes out of someone who cares about you is not pleasing to the eye.

Zhao Yeqing was already used to it. Seeing him like this, he leaned over and teased with a smile: "Brother is so considerate."

She knows that some people are tough-tongued and thin-skinned. When they say this, the person they just teased immediately becomes the one being ridiculed. Some people become confused and overwhelmed once they are praised, which is cute to look at.

Seeing someone's ears turning red, her purpose of teasing was achieved, Zhao Yeqing was in a better mood, and his steps on the stairs were a little brisk.

After going upstairs, Mu Xi leaned on the edge of the stairs on the second floor, hugging his chest and saying nothing. Zhao Yeqing saw that several doors were opened, and he knew that Mu Xi had checked them all.

I wandered around peacefully, and when I saw the second room, I couldn't help but exclaimed "Ah!"

This room is larger than the master bedroom next to it, and contains several large tools.

"Spinning wheel, loom, sewing machine..." Zhao Yeqing's eyes lit up, this was just like falling asleep on the pillow. Just now she was lamenting the lack of cloth, but now she turned around and found the loom.

Zhao Yeqing didn't step into the room. He immediately turned around and glared at someone who was watching her reaction with his arms crossed and a smile, "You knew there was such a good thing, why didn't you say anything just now."

Mu Xi smiled and tilted his head, leaning his head lazily against the wall: "What I want to say, but some people like to tease others, so this will distract me."

Now she had no time to care, the machine in front of her was obviously more attractive to her.

This was the first time she had seen such a large and primitive old-fashioned loom. Even if it was primitive, many of the shaft parts were made of metal, unlike the wooden parts seen in history books. But The shape is the same.

The small one with wheels on the left is a spinning wheel, and the big one on the right is a loom.

She used her hand to pinch the wood, and as expected, it was already a bit rotten, and it was dented when she pinched it lightly with her fingernails.

The footsteps behind him had already reached the door, and Zhao Yeqing said without looking back: "We have to quickly draw the drawings, and then see if we can make a similar one. Don't let it be ruined by then. We are in trouble again." Discredit.”

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't bear to leave the machine for a second.

Mu Xi reminded her, "If you have a mobile phone, you can take a photo first, and I'll find paper and pen."

Only after hearing his reminder did Zhao Yeqing remember that he had brought his mobile phone. He quickly took it out and turned on the camera, looking up, down, forward, left, and right, and did not miss the photos in the gaps.

Nowadays, there is endless electricity at home, so naturally we can use our mobile phones as we want.

Although I can't make calls or access the Internet, I can still turn on the flashlight in an emergency, and I can watch videos and listen to music when I get bored at night.

The spinning wheel and loom are both made of wood. Only the sewing machine next to it is made of metal, which is also a very old style. The paint on the metal sewing machine is black with gold patterns. I feel nostalgic at first sight.

It's just unified across the country

This style was often seen when I was a child. Later, science and technology advanced rapidly. Almost all the sewing machine market was occupied by electric sewing machines, which could be connected to a computer and embroidered directly on them. Since then, the old-fashioned ones have become less and less popular.

"It's so heavy, I don't know if I can get it back."

The base of the old-fashioned sewing machine is made of metal. The sewing machine, table and base are all integrated. It had to be moved back. Zhao Yeqing was worried that the sewing machine would be damaged during transportation, so he put it into the space inside the connected table.

There is a space below where the sewing machine is connected to the table. When the sewing machine is put in, the top becomes an ordinary small table.

Mu Xi found paper and pen and came back and gave it to Zhao Yeqing to draw the picture. He also found a tape measure and reported clearly the size data of each place.

"There are many parts on it that I don't have at home, so I probably have to dismantle this one."

Zhao Yeqing stopped writing, "Tear it down? If it doesn't work well by then, won't the reference object be gone?"

Mu Xi was also a little worried. This thing is quite delicate. "How about I stay here for a few more days and finish the loom before I go back. I just have to dismantle the finished loom into parts." When the time comes, we have to transport these wooden parts one more time.”

Zhao Yeqing is not afraid of trouble, but he is afraid of not being able to support himself, "It's okay, then just do it well and then go back. If you can't save it, it will be a big trouble."

The two of them had just finished drawing the drawings of the loom, but before they had time to draw the drawings of the spinning wheel, it became dark.

I brought food in my backpack, ate my food with a super-bright flashlight, picked the cleanest room, and put two sleeping bags on the bed.

There is no shortage of quilts in this house. There are several clean quilts in the cabinet, but they have been there for a long time and are not damaged or moldy. They are a bit stuffy.

The weather was quite warm, and the two of them didn't bother to make quilts, so it was quite comfortable to just sleep like this.

After extinguishing the flashlight, the room was dim. Zhao Yeqing was a little uncomfortable in this unfamiliar environment and couldn't fall asleep even after tossing and turning. Mu Xi was not so particular and raised his hand to take out the sleeping bag and put it on Zhao Yeqing's body to comfort him.

"Recognize the bed? Or are you afraid?"

"I can't tell, there's nothing to be afraid of, but I also feel a little weird. I shouldn't be able to recognize the bed. I always sleep when I say sleep in the forest."

Mu Xi guessed that she was uneasy after being frightened by the skeleton during the day. He sat up and rubbed his eyes, "Would you like to get some midnight snacks?"
