In winter, Mrs. Hu wears mourning clothes made of burlap.No matter how many fleeces are put inside, it still doesn't keep warm.Holding the stove in her hand, she shivered, and asked the maid beside her who was also dressed in white: "Where are Da Lang and Er Lang? Are you going to the Ding family's woods again?"
The Hu family's maidservant has also been involved in the affairs of Cao's mansion for more than a year, and this important news is still known. "Returning to Madam, Mr. Xiao Dalang and Mr. Erlang go out for four days every seven days. Today is the fifteenth day, which is the day at home. But yesterday there was a letter from the other side, saying that it was blocked by the wind and snow, and it was difficult to travel overnight. , We will leave when the snow stops.”
Mrs. Hu worried about the snow outside the door: "Although the snow has stopped, the two of them, who come and go in the wind and snow, don't know why they have to suffer so much?"
The old lady Chang added charcoal to Mrs. Hu's hand stove: "These two little gentlemen have big ideas. When the old man passed away, he left manpower for them, and they became more and more lawless. They are fooling around every day, how can they be like mothers?" The appearance of filial piety and filial piety. It's good for them to be like this, and Mrs. Sheng will worry about it."
Hu frowned. "My mother's words are inappropriate. That's the son of the lord, and the lord's face will be radiant after an accident? And..." She lowered her voice, "My lord and I are in the period of filial piety, and we can't do it for three years. room. Dalang Erlang will be at least eight years old when he has a child of his own."
After hearing this, Mrs. Chang became frowning, but she still tried to persuade: "Madam, relax, the days are still long."
After being depressed for less than half a minute, Mrs. Hu cheered up again: "I think Dalang Erlang has a good heart and wants to get close to them. Speaking of which, the smokeless charcoal fire and hand stove were all given by those two children."
The Chang family looked like they were about to cry: "We are a dignified family, do we want to compromise and please the ignorant children?"
The wet nurse likes Zhai Dou so much that even Mrs. Hu has a headache.She rubbed her temples once and for all: "If that's the case, grandma, don't talk about it anymore."
At this moment, a little maid hurriedly ran in ahead. "Ma'am, the two young gentlemen have returned home. After seeing the old lady and the young gentleman in the main hall, they have already come this way."
"Quick! Come in, please. Two more braziers, poor thing, don't freeze them."
Before the house was tidied up, I heard Asheng's crisp voice: "Mother is still so worrying." As the words fell, I saw the twins wearing thick coir raincoats and stepping on the snow.Cao Cao became stronger and stronger, and he walked around like a tiger, so it was difficult to discipline him.Ah Sheng still looks like a child carved in jade, even more fair.
"Erlang, come, come, let mother take a look." Hu warmly hugged Asheng, who had already untied the coir raincoat under the service of the maidservant, and tested the temperature on her face with the back of his hand, "It's so cool. It's early in the morning." Hurry up, it's cold." He ordered the maid, "Go and get some hot ginger soup."
Ah Sheng giggled, and waited until Cao Cao finished saluting Mrs. Hu before saying, "I haven't seen you for a few days, how is mother? Brother, is the charcoal fire that someone sent you useful?"
"It's all easy to use, all are easy to use. You are still young, how can you take care of me?"
Cao Cao said with a straight face: "Filial piety is the first thing to do. Since we have found good charcoal, there is no reason to enjoy it alone. It must be given to the elders."
He said a few more polite words, drank some ginger soup, and then he was cold.
It was winter, a season when there was really nothing to do.The men still have the fun of winter hunting, and the women can only stay in the house and do some odd jobs.Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu suddenly had an idea, and an idea from a long time ago came to mind. "Erlang, I have free time today, let me teach you how to weave."
A Sheng was startled: "Okay." Carpenter Ai wanted to improve the loom a few years ago, but because of delays in making paper, pencils and iron smelting, there is not much progress now.Her own knowledge of the loom is only on paper, and now she has the opportunity to practice it by herself, which is naturally good.
Cao Cao was also very interested: "Does mother know how to weave? I know my grandmother has a weaving room, but we have never entered it."
Hu excitedly ordered people to carry the loom to the small room next door, and laid out the blankets and brazier before taking the twins there in person. "My mother's family is a side branch, and it was difficult during the famine. In order to supplement the family, my mother took us to weave together. Even so, this is a skill passed down from Lei's ancestors, and it is also a kind of virtue. It should not Consider it cheap."
Ancient women, even those of minor aristocratic origin, also mastered their unique set of methods to adapt to the times.Ah Sheng praised Hu's skillful weaving techniques.She really finds it amazing that the equipment of this era is very simple, but such simple tools are used to support the clothing of a nation for thousands of years.
The tools are simple, and the requirements for labor will become higher.
Whether it is the method of extracting fibers from hemp stalks or the method of drawing silk from silkworm cocoons, there is a set of specialties.After that, the fibers of different lengths are spun into threads, and after that, the real weaving process.Warp and weft were terms in the weaving process at the earliest, and when to use the shuttle to thread and when to push the push rod on the loom, there are inherent reasons.
"My loom is simple, and I can only weave plain and pure-colored silk. For example, the patterned silk or colorful brocade, the loom is as high as a room, and it can only be completed by the cooperation of many people."
Ah Sheng widened her eyes: "I really want to see you."
"How can it be so easy to see. They are all skills treasured by the great families."
"Oh, forget it." She knew that the advanced technology at this time was monopolized by others.However, she will not be able to use the Jacquard machine for the time being, and improving the weaving efficiency of solid-colored cloth is the kingly way.Wait until most of the people at the bottom can put on clothes, and then consider whether they are beautiful or not.
This year, she asked the space for fully domesticated insect-resistant cotton seeds.But probably the other party felt that the value of cotton seeds was too high, so they took all the space water and didn't give her the seeds.Not only that, from June to December, not a single drop of water remained in the space, and all disappeared along the sky-reaching orbit.Ah Sheng estimated that when the other party felt that the amount was enough, the transaction would be considered complete.
She also accepted such a result.
Penicillin also needs to be carefully cultivated and purified by itself.It will take at least ten years of hard work until the mature penicillin appears.Want to promote, you need a lifetime.But cotton is different.This kind of thing has immediate effect, just plant it and grow it. The method of weaving is ready-made, and it can be applied after a little modification.In other words, the follow-up cost of cotton seeds to make an impact on the world is far lower than that of Penicillium, which requires strict control of cultivation conditions.
According to this logic, it is estimated that she will change to sweet potatoes and corn, which is not enough.The follow-up promotion cost of high-yield grain is lower than that of cotton seeds, and it can be eaten after planting, without the need to improve textile machines.Her time is limited, and there is only so much water in the space every year, so she has to plan and use it carefully.
"Erlang, Erlang."
The shout brought Ah Sheng's attention back to the loom in front of him that was constantly moving. "Mother?"
Hu looked worried: "Do you think weaving is boring?"
"No." Ah Sheng blinked innocently.
Cao Cao explained with a smile on the side: "Mother, don't worry about it. Ah Sheng often wanders like this. If she shows this expression, it just means that she likes something."
Ah Sheng took the opportunity to nod: "I think the loom is pretty good, it is one of the greatest inventions in human history."
Brother Ah Cao covered his forehead and snickered: "You're talking nonsense again."
Hu didn't understand what it meant, but she still followed her own train of thought: "I'll take you to see the overwintering silkworm eggs in the afternoon. In spring, silkworms can hatch. Picking mulberry and raising silkworms is the most interesting thing, and young girls like it." .”
Do you raise silkworm babies?I also raised it in my previous life, and I miss it when I talk about it.Moreover, how to increase productivity in sericulture is a question worth exploring.
So Ah Sheng clapped his hands happily: "Okay. I'll bother my mother today." She didn't realize at all that the Hu family was trying to lure her back to the right path of female workers and female virtues, and she was seriously thinking about the intensive reform of the textile industry. Woolen cloth.
The way of thinking is completely different.
But under the deliberate maintenance of both parties, Ah Sheng and Cao Cao got along relatively well with the Hu family.A day passed quickly, and Mrs. Hu still kept them for supper.
"Rest early today, get up early tomorrow, Xiahou's family is coming to visit." Hu took out half of the soy sauce vegetarian chicken from his plate and asked the maid to share it with the two children.
The twins saluted in unison before accepting the call. "Thank you mother for the food."
Xiahou's family, it sounds familiar.At times like this, you should act innocent and curious.Ah Sheng swallowed the last mouthful of bean products, brewed his emotions for three seconds, and asked in a tone three times softer than usual: "Xiahou's family, it seems that I have heard many times, are they also relatives of our family? But why did you come so late?" How about going to the door?"
"Xiahou's family is also in mourning. The elder of their family passed away three years ago, and he just gave his filial piety a few days ago."
"Well……"
"Xiahou's family, together with Ding's family and Cao's family, is a big family in Qiao County, and it is also the descendant of Ruyin Wenhou [1]. Although they are now in decline because none of them are in official positions, you must not be rude, you understand?"
Both Cao Cao and Cao Sheng understood.The ancestors of the Xiahou family were very glorious, but now they have fallen into the sky, not even comparable to the nouveau riche Cao's family. They relied on the reputation of their ancestors and the truth that "a thin camel is bigger than a horse" to maintain its powerful status.The twins don't discriminate against this situation. Anyone like Cao Teng can start from scratch. With the foundation of Xiahou's family, as long as there is one capable person, they will be famous again.
What's more, as far as Ah Sheng knows, there are capable people. Is it called Xiahoudun or Xiahougang?She tried hard to recall for a long time before she dug out a blue Three Kingdoms killing generals card from her mind.Stubborn?It seems that blood loss can be judged? 【2】
Ah Sheng was embarrassed by what he recalled for a long time.Forget it, let's judge after seeing the real person.Historical knowledge is nothing but floating clouds.
The author has something to say: [1]: Ruyin Wenhou refers to Xia Houying, the founding hero of the Western Han Dynasty.Afterwards, the descendants were confiscated, and Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan's father's generation had already declined.
[2]: The Three Kingdoms Killing Basic Pack general card: Xiahou Dun.Skill, Stubbornness: When you receive damage, you can judge, if the result is not a heart, choose one source: 1. Discard two cards from your hand; 2. Receive 1 point of damage from you.

The Hu family's maidservant has also been involved in the affairs of Cao's mansion for more than a year, and this important news is still known. "Returning to Madam, Mr. Xiao Dalang and Mr. Erlang go out for four days every seven days. Today is the fifteenth day, which is the day at home.
