Tang Shiyue originally thought that this job is actually very simple. If you study hard, there is definitely nothing you can't learn. Especially now, how should I put it, with the expectations of the clan, everyone must work hard to learn, and there is no such thing as being passive and slacking off.
of.
Unexpectedly, there are some people who really can't learn it. It's not that they can't do it at all, but it just seems like they can't keep their fingers apart and the knitting doesn't look good.
In this case, we can only ask them to take their time. If it really doesn't work, we can only replace them.
It took a whole morning, and after everyone had learned it, one person divided a new roller of thread and officially started knitting socks.
Tang Shiyue has obsessive-compulsive disorder. From the beginning to the end, what he demands is to strive for excellence. He will not make a single mistake, and any unqualified ones will be sent back and knitted again.
For example, when knitting socks, how many stitches should be used to make a sock circle, how many stitches should be changed to flat stitches, how many stitches should be added after how many stitches, and how many stitches should be added. These are all fixed, neither more nor less. For this reason, she also gave each person a needle.
Let them use the counters for counting.
Seeing that everyone had taken advantage of it, Tang Shiyue looked at Madam Zhou, who was chatting animatedly with several people in the village, and walked away on her own.
After all, she is a person who is heavily in debt! She has to race against time!
She was going to knit a pair of socks for Mr. Xu, Qi Xiaolang, Tang Shirong and the two little ones. She would tell them first and then slowly knit hats later.
In fact, if you really want to do it, the speed will not be slow. After all, these days there are no announcements, no computers, no mobile phones, no entertainment, only knitting sweaters!
Mrs. Ye no longer does needlework, but is knitting for Han Yi and her grandson Chang Rui. After all, this job is easy on the eyes. Once you are familiar with it, you don't even have to look. It won't delay chatting and gossiping at all.
And Madam Ye is really fast! She even knits a pair a day while cooking!
In the end, Tang Shiyue still didn't respect the old and care for the young at all... He quietly asked her to help knit the two small socks. Later, he found that she still couldn't catch up, so he quietly asked her to help knit Tang Shirong's socks.
When she finished knitting Xu Wenqu and Qi Xiaolang's and thought she could finally be lazy happily, Mrs. Zhou asked her: "Don't you need to knit one for Magistrate Lin?"
Tang Shiyue: "..."
She could only continue knitting with her face full of guilt.
So the most common scene at home recently is that Tang Shiyue, Mrs. Ye, and Mrs. Zhou are sitting and knitting together...
Every time she raised her head and moved her neck, Tang Shiyue felt that she was about to enter old age. She imagined a scene in her mind of her leading a village of women to dance in a square, and she was instantly frightened and broke into a sweat.
She doesn't want this!
Sure enough, living a womanly life would dampen her ambition! So as soon as the wine shop opened jujube wine, she went over to help.
As soon as she stepped out, Wang came out slowly.
She took the initiative to greet the two of them: "Are you busy?"
As soon as they saw her, they stopped laughing at the same time. Wang sat down on the chair next to her. She felt so comfortable that she couldn't help but feel jealous secretly.
Tang Shiyue used bamboo curtains to surround the outside of the east and west wings, and placed a few armchairs on both sides. If the sun shines here, sit here, and if the sun shines, sit over there. It is bright and comfortable.
Mrs. Wang suppressed her anger, then tilted her head pretending to be coquettish, and looked at Madam Zhou's hand: "What are you..."
Mrs. Zhou immediately hid her work.
Ms. Wang stared at that moment: "What are you doing?"
Lady Zhou said, "If you don't want to do anything, what do you want to do?"
Wang was panting for a long time and said angrily: "Why are you doing this? I just want to see, can I still steal it from you?"
As she spoke, she raised her chin and gave her a reserved smile: "Who doesn't know that in these ten miles and eight towns, my embroidery work is top-notch, and I haven't even heard of Lin Xiu Niang and Qiao Xiu Niang outside.
How can you compare with me if you have passed it?"
She cautiously stroked the embroidered butterfly on her body: "Now that I am a mother, Yue'er actually found an embroiderer from outside to be her master. Isn't it a joke? I've thought about it, I shouldn't be lazy.
Er, it’s time to come out and help Yue’er manage the workshop..."
It's quite a beautiful thought.
Madam Zhou simply didn’t know what to say.
Mrs. Ye was also eye-opening.
This was the first time she faced Wang's style.
He doesn't have the destiny of being a princess, but he has the illness of a princess. The enchanting and enchanting look he brings out is an eyesore.
Madam Zhou said bluntly: "Yueer will not agree."
Mrs. Ye also said, "This has nothing to do with whether the embroidery is good or not! This is not embroidery!"
"You!" Mrs. Wang glared at her, and then she pulled out the handkerchief and cried loudly: "You think I didn't hear that Qiao Xiu Niang was just an adulterous concubine! Tang Shi
Yue would rather use her than me! I raised her in vain! Does she still regard me as her mother?"
Mrs. Ye couldn't help it anymore: "Do you have the ears to listen to Nanshan dialect and Beishan dialect? You can't even hear it from the bottom of our wall? Mrs. Qiao was unjustly accused, didn't you hear it?"
Mrs. Wang looked up at her from above the veil, and said with some pity: "You actually believe this kind of thing? I can see it. She is not very old, and since she has a bad relationship with her husband, she naturally flirts with others and commits adultery.
Do you really think she is innocent?" She shook her head and laughed softly.
The two of them were confused by her "everyone is drunk but I am sober" attitude, and they simply didn't know what to say.
Madam Zhou said disgustedly: "You don't have to waste your efforts. No matter what you say, Yue'er won't agree to it."
"It really doesn't make sense to you!" Mr. Wang glanced at the two plain-looking village women with contempt, and acted like a master: "Where is the workshop? Take me there first. If not... this
I really can’t grow the place I love!”
"No!" Mrs. Ye said, "Yueer said you are not allowed to go out."
Mrs. Wang was a little anxious: "I am her aunt! When she comes back, I will talk to her! You take me there first!"
"No!" Mrs. Ye stood in front of her: "You can't go out."
Wang said with dismay: "How dare you do the following!"
Mrs. Ye said: "I was hired by Yue'er, not you. What can I say?"
Mrs. Wang didn't expect these two people to be so stubborn: "If you don't get out of the way, I'm going to yell!"
Mrs. Ye's eyes flashed fiercely, and she raised her fist: "You dare!"
Ms. Wang was so frightened that she took two steps back! She had heard that she had killed someone before!
She wanted to speak, opened her mouth, but retched twice. She didn't say anything for a long time, covered her mouth and rushed back to the room.
Mrs. Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she doesn't take things lightly or take things seriously. If Mr. Wang really makes a fuss regardless of it and disturbs people, I'm afraid it will cause another trouble.
When Tang Shiyue came back from the wine shop, Mrs. Ye discussed it with Mrs. Zhou and decided not to tell her about it, otherwise she would be angry again.
On the other hand, Mrs. Wang seemed to be frightened and didn't even come out to eat dinner. Tang Shiyue didn't care either. She could starve to death if she wanted to eat or not.
She spent several days and finally knitted a pair of socks for each of County Magistrate Lin's family, preparing for a trip to the county government office.
During this period, Han Yi did not wait for those merchants, and directly took a group of brothers and people arranged by Qi Jing to go to Lanzhou again. This time, he planned to stay for a while to consolidate this trade route. (Unfinished)
