Yesterday, she made a custom-made pair of wheels from the blacksmith, and she can pick them up tomorrow. Today, she rushed to make the frame of the wheelchair. When it is installed tomorrow, her brother will have a wheelchair to sit in. The master is in his thirties.
The man didn't talk much. After she told her what she wanted, he said she could do it, and then Tang Wanwan gave him the drawings.
After taking a look at it, the man picked up the hammer and banged it against the long knife in his hand.
The few small objects Tang Wanwan asked him to make were completed in a short time, and he did a good job.
As for the mechanism on the wheelchair, she has to come back and reprocess it herself, changing the shaft brake to a manual brake. This way her brother can operate the wheelchair with his hands. I hope my brother can stand up slowly in the future and does not need a wheelchair. That would be great.
.
In the afternoon when they were making wheelchairs, the two younger ones couldn't help much. They all sat aside and watched their elder sister making wood. Tang Xiaoyi was very interested and wanted to learn from her elder sister. Tang Wanwan didn't care whether he understood or not.
, let him write it down one by one first, and he will gradually understand it later.
Tang Xiaoyi had a good memory, so she nodded and memorized it slowly and carefully. Tang Xiaorou also secretly wrote it down. She didn't want to learn to make wood, but if her little brother forgot, she could remind him.
Making a wheelchair is much more complicated than making a door. Tang Wanwan accidentally hit her hand several times. Because the tools are not very complete, it becomes more difficult to operate such a relatively delicate thing.
Moreover, each connection interface requires wooden rivets, which must be hammered into the wood. There are wire interfaces at the top and bottom. To connect two pieces of wood about 20 centimeters, a minimum of ten wooden rivets are needed. They must be strictly inlaid in each other's wood blocks.
, make the two pieces of wood fit together tightly. The height of this wheelchair is about sixty or seventy centimeters, almost half a person's height. It requires a total of nearly forty or fifty pieces of wood, multiplied by ten times the number of wooden rivets.
, one can imagine the difficulty in this.
Without skilled carpentry skills, it would be impossible to complete a manual wheelchair with such simple conditions.
Seeing that Tang Wanwan's hands were pierced by the wood, Mrs. Chen could only worry as she watched from the side. She couldn't even cut nails. She looked at her daughter and asked helplessly: "Awan, are you very nervous?"
It’s useless.”
"Mom, there are so-called specializations in the arts. Mom, you are good at embroidery and doing some detailed work. This is incomparable. Please stop thinking like this. If you keep thinking like this, you will be unhappy."
"Look, can't you help me rub the willow sticks and make things for me?"
"Well, that's what you said. Mom has lived a long life in vain, and you can't even understand it."
On the third day, Tang Wei's wheelchair was finally ready, and the next day was the Tangjiacun temple fair.
The moment Tang Wanwan helped her brother into the wheelchair, she smiled and said to him, "Brother, I said you could participate in the temple fair, and you see I did it."
Tang Wei was very shy at first and did not dare to sit on it.
With the support of Tang Wanwan and Madam Chen, he finally sat on it.
Then he followed Tang Wanwan's instructions for turning left and right, and with a gentle squeeze of his hand, the wheelchair moved.
He felt the wheelchair move and was too frightened to move.
Tang Wanwan encouraged him to try it again, saying that as long as you want it to move, it will move, and if you want it to stop, it will stop.
Tang Wei tried the operation a few more times and was finally able to circle around the courtyard.
Now that the wall of the adobe courtyard has been completed and the door to the small courtyard has been installed, the small courtyard has suddenly turned into a self-contained private space. After Tang Wei turned around a few times, there was a thin stream of sweat on his forehead, but
Tears of joy are about to fall.
Because he finally saw the light of day again.
Although his hands and feet are not strong yet, he believes that he can do it tomorrow.

"Young Pavilion Master! An invitation from Tangjiacun." After Gu Yunzhi returned, he received an invitation from Tangjiacun.
"Do you want to refuse?" Elder Wang is a woman in her early forties. She has never been married. It can be said that she has devoted her whole life to Yonglin Pavilion. She was once a woman in trouble who was saved by the old pavilion master.
She was raised to be his right-hand man, and she has a good relationship with Gu Yunzhi, like a sister and a younger brother.
He always refused in the past. But this year, he wanted to see what great news the Tangjia Village patriarch was going to announce.
When he saw Mr. Feng's expression on the carriage that day, his intuition was that it was not a trivial matter.
"Let's leave it alone for now. Please help Elder Wang arrange a congratulatory gift."
"Okay, then you are going to bring a few people there."
Gu Yunzhi thought for a while and arranged for a few people, including Liu Hongying, Huang Zheng and a new disciple.
"Is Qi Hong suitable? She has been in our Yonglin Pavilion for less than three years." According to the rules, disciples who have not become regular disciples are not qualified to accompany the young pavilion master. Gu Yunzhi does not know what his considerations were this time.
"Wasn't she the leader in the last competition? This is a reward for her."
"good!"
At the same time, Gu Xinyu and Gu Xinwen also received invitations, but they attended the temple fair as unmarried ladies. Gu Yunzhi attended the opening ceremony of the temple fair, and their status and identity were completely different.
Gu Xinyu was locked up at home for several days and was almost suffocated to death. After receiving the invitation, her aunt and sister had no reason to keep her at home anymore.
There is also a new bed that Tang Wanwan made for her. She likes it very much. It is better than the bed she had last time. It is covered with a bed cover and the mattress underneath is not visible. It is more elastic than last time.
What's even better is that it's extremely comfortable to lie on. I don't know if it's a psychological factor, but after sleeping on this bed for two days, she didn't have the dream she had been having anymore.
Gu Xinwen knew that her sister had found someone to make a very comfortable bed. She wanted to come, but this damn girl refused.
Gu Xinwen was going to go to that person's house in person and ask someone to make two beds for her. She wanted to sleep in the two beds, which made Gu Xinyu angry to death.
The temple fair in Tangjia Village is about to begin. The village has been busy in the past few days, and it is extremely lively. But for Tang Ruyue, it is a nightmare. Because the patriarch sent someone to get the rabbit, the equipment to expand the salt processing, she took
Not coming out. How does she know how to do this?
When Mrs. Wang heard this, her expression changed and she quickly said, "Didn't I give you this salt recipe? Why are you still bothering us?"
After Tang Zhongqiu heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Sister Wang, you just want to be the granddaughter-in-law of the head of the Tang family based on such a simple recipe. Isn't this a little too cheap? Here.
You have three days to think about it and come back to us."
Wang could only bite the bullet and agreed, saying that it would be given to him when the time comes.
Tang Zhongqiu left with satisfaction, but he could clearly see that Tang Wangshi felt guilty.
