The ancient life of a master craftsman

As soon as the story of Huachun being teased by a ghost came out, not only Huaimu Village, but the gossip women in the surrounding villages all restrained a lot. After all, people at this time believed in ghosts and gods and were full of awe.

The old people in the village who saw it thought that the blood-eyed ghost might be a good ghost, but they didn't see what happened to the people in the village, did they stop a lot?

There are also people guessing whether the blood-eyed ghost is an old ancestor of Huaimu Village, but he saw that the atmosphere in the village was getting worse and worse, so he took action to rectify it. Do you work obediently at home?

As for Huachun, no one knows where she went. Everyone in the village thought that Huachun would wander around the village. The old people in the village planned to let her go home after the blood-eyed ghost left. Anyway, she has learned a lesson. If it is true Wouldn't it be her life not to let her go back to the village?But unexpectedly, Huachun disappeared on the day he was driven away.

But Hua Chun is usually eccentric, and whoever she plays with is Bai, Shitou's daughter-in-law, there used to be a Chen, and daughters-in-law from several other families. These people don't have a good reputation in the village, Bai Being sunk in the pond, the Chen family was reviled by the whole village.

Hua Chun's perception in the hearts of the villagers can be imagined. Of course, no one cares about her life and death. It's too late to support her family. Who has the time to care about an old woman with a cheap mouth.

Li Enbai still went to the town in the morning, went to Yunli's house in the afternoon, and spent the rest of the time at his home, not knowing what he was busy with.

He also completely let go of the job of selling hairpins. There will never be a day when this thing cannot be sold, but don't expect to make a lot of money, just make sure you don't starve to death.He thinks so, but Brother Qing and the others are not. Now on average, each of them can earn more than [-] Wen, which is no less than what his brothers earn, which is equivalent to adding a lot to the family. With income, I can eat more meat and buy a few bolts of cloth.

It can be said that it has helped them a lot. Every family is very grateful to Li Enbai. With an extra income, they will suffer less hunger, and they will be more confident when they marry in the coming year.

They also became closer to Li Enbai, but Li Enbai seldom showed up in the village, and lived in the town, Yun's house, and home every day, making it difficult for people to find opportunities to talk to him.

On July [-]th, the big fair arrived as scheduled. Brother Qing and the others, carrying the folding table provided by Li Enbai on their backs, arrived early with colorful and diverse hair accessories and occupied a good position, which was larger than Li Enbai's previous position. Some, after all they are many.

Except for Yunli who was going to be a filial piety, Brother Qing and the others all came, and the goods they brought couldn't fit on one table, so they brought two.

Still the same as before, Qinggeer and Yugeer share a table for each person, open the props, spread a dark tablecloth, put a delicate bamboo basket in front, and a wooden detachable display stand at the end , Xue Geer and Duo Duo are responsible for the rest of the goods.

They cooperated tacitly, doing their own things, and didn't pay attention to other people's eyes, but the man who had been watching for a long time couldn't help but stepped forward.

"Sorry to bother you." The man was one meter away from them, "Excuse me, who is the boss?"

The four of them looked at each other in blank dismay, because the law and order in the big market was very good, so no men followed them, but they didn't expect to meet a man who came to talk to them.

Finally Xue Geer took a step forward, "I am, what can I do for you?"

The man pointed to the table covered under the tablecloth, "I want to ask about this table, can you take a step to speak?"

Brother Xue understood. It turned out that they had taken a fancy to their table, "You think my table can be folded, which is rather novel? It's custom-made, and it's very suitable for us to set up a stall."

I took a look at the man's clothes, the fabric was high-quality, and there was a jade pendant hanging around his waist, but his attitude was not very arrogant, he should be the manager of a rich family.Brother Xue thought to himself, maybe he could get a big deal for Brother Li.

Thinking of this, Brother Xue looked at the man more carefully, and stared into his eyes for a while, making the man quite uncomfortable. Why does this little brother keep looking at him?

"Indeed, this table is very special. Someone is very interested. I wonder if the little boss can recommend the master who made this table?" The man was more polite under Xue Ge'er's sight, and his posture was more upright, as if he wanted to show better .

On the other hand, Brother Xue saw that his eyes were not dark, and he didn't look at them with disgusting eyes. This made Brother Xue decide that the man should not be a bad person, so she told him Li Enbai's address.

When the man got the address, he didn't bother a few people to say anything, but after they set up the stall, he picked out some exquisite accessories and bought them. The more exquisite the price, the higher the price. I bought one of each and spent five taels of silver.The man thanked Brother Xue and the others softly, and left with the wrapped accessories.

This kind of behavior made Brother Xue's judgment of him a little higher, and he repaid him in a roundabout way by buying goods, which made him unable to refuse, and it would not hurt people's face. It can be said that it has the best of both worlds.

The man returned to the owner's house with a pack of hairpins, hair combs, necklaces, bracelets and other accessories he bought. Inside, a man in his twenties was lying on a rocking chair, swaying under the tree with the wind, leisurely and comfortably.

"Young master, Chong is back." The man put the wrapped jewelry on the table beside him.

The man on the rocking chair opened his eyes, "Well, did you find out?"

"I found out that the table was made by a carpenter named Li Enbai in Huaimu Village. It is said that it is a unique craft." Liu Chong told all the news he learned, "After my observation, this kind of table can be folded and closed. It is also very sturdy to use, and the weight capacity is not clear, but it is definitely convenient, and it should not be heavy.”

"En." The young master is not very interested in the table, what he is really interested in is the technique used on the table, if this technique is used, it can be used in many places.

He rocked with the rocking chair for a while, and said to Liu, "In a few days, let's go to Huaimu Village."

The young master's name is Liu Mingxi, he is the eldest son of the rich businessman Liu Changchun, he has started to help his father with his affairs in the past few years, and he is very busy on weekdays.This time when he went back to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he only had a few days of leisure, but he found such a special table when he was shopping in the market.

Compared with others, the technique of this kind of table is obviously superb. He thought that the person who can make such a table must have other things that are eye-catching, so he asked the servant to observe and inquire.

Liu Mingxi was just planning to add one or more products to his family's business at the moment, but he didn't expect that his fate with Huaimu Village would start like this.

During this period of time, Li Enbai has been going to the town to exchange business with Hu Fulang and purchase the dowry needs in the morning, go to Yun's house to talk to Yunli in the afternoon, and then stay at home to study the textile machine that he has been thinking about lately. He is very busy. .

Xinglong Town is a large and prosperous town. Huaimu Village, which is assisted by handicrafts, is a poor village nearby, but it will also ensure that no one will starve to death every year. Therefore, people in the village attach great importance to land, and only with land can they grow food. In order not to be hungry.

Originally, Li Enbai planned to wait for him to be a scholar next year before buying land, but old man Yun thought how could he have no land for his family. There was no suitable one before, so he had to put it down temporarily. On this day, he just heard that someone was going to sell the land, so he immediately bought land. Go to Li Enbai's house and call him.

"This is two acres of land, all of which are high-quality fields. Although the location is a bit off, it is not in the way. Next to it is the land of Zhang Song's family. There is a support." Old man Yun led Li Enbai to go around the field, feeling a little nervous Asked, "The top-grade fields are a bit more expensive, and they cost eight taels of silver per mu. Do you have enough money? Not enough, I still have a little..."

Li Enbai looked at the overgrown weeds in the field, and felt a little headache, wouldn't he want to farm the land by himself?He really doesn't know how to do this, even the system needs to help him cheat on what the wheat seedlings look like.

He kept a smile on his face, "That's enough, Uncle Yun doesn't have to worry."

The old man Yun's brows and eyes stretched, and he clapped his hands, "Then buy it?"

"Well, please trouble Uncle Yun to help you go through the formalities." Li Enbai said that he was going to give the money to Old Man Yun. His money was stored in the system space, and he pretended to take it out of his purse every time he used it, but Thinking that 16 taels of silver was quite a lot, he couldn't carry it with him, so he decided to take old man Yun to his house to get it, and by the way, see what was missing from the betrothal gifts he purchased, "Uncle Yun, come home with Linfeng, and get some money. "

The old man Shangyun cared more about buying the land than he did, so he immediately went to get the money with him, and settled down first, he was afraid that Li Enbai would spend it all in a few days.

His worry was not unreasonable. Li Enbai went to the town every day and bought a lot of things every day, ranging from small needles and threads to pots, pans, water tanks, wooden barrels, cloth, and quilts, which made the villagers curious. Where did he get a lot of money from? Five months ago, he was still wearing the cheapest rough cloth clothes, and he didn't even have a change of clothes.

In the end, it was only five months, the dilapidated house was renovated, a marriage was booked, the betrothal gifts kept increasing, and there were things to add to the house. Just the quilts, I bought a whole five beds!One of the beds was covered with a red quilt, and it looked like it was used when planning to get married.

Seeing him go to Yun's house with his things every day, the brothers and girls in the village are all envious. Isn't this very good for Yunli?Those who send this to that every day before they get married, what will happen after they get married?Every day I pretend to pass by and chat at the entrance of the village, just to see what Li Enbai brought back today, and start a new round of envy.

Seeing this, Mu Laosan felt a little more satisfied, and praised Li Enbai with his brothers in private.Old man Yun was also happy in his heart. His son-in-law doted on his son so much, and he would be able to live a good life in the future, so he didn't have to worry about him treating his son badly.

So, when Old Man Yun returned home with Li Enbai, he was stunned to see the betrothal gifts piled up all over the floor, isn't that too much?
