Chapter 536: Meaningless Words
The old woman spun the thread very quickly, and the tea kung fu twisted all the cotton in a jacket into cotton thread.
When the cotton threads were spinning, she got up again, took the spindles full of threads and placed them on the loom, and skillfully knitted them into a cotton cloth in the shape of a square scarf.
"Okay, do you think that's okay?" Removing the cotton cloth from the loom, the old woman asked Xiao Han.
Xiao Han nodded, reached out to take the cotton cloth, touched it carefully, and Xue Pan on the side also came up and tried the feel.
"Hey, how is this cloth softer than the white cloth I saw before?" Pinching the cotton cloth, Xue Pan rubbed it twice in surprise, then looked at the clean palm, and said strangely: "And it doesn't shed hair." ”
"I don't know, maybe it's because of the ripening of these cottons!" Xiao Han scratched his head, he wasn't sure.
He didn't know the process of making 100 stacks of cloth, but he thought it should be similar to making linen, so the only difference was to play cotton, because now this process is now only owned by Xiao Han.
"By the way, Panpan, how much cotton do we have in Sanyuan County?" After lowering his head and thinking about it, Xiao Han suddenly asked Xue Pan about the cotton stock at home.
Xue Pan didn't hear the problem in Xiao Han's words, thought about it for a while, and replied, "There are many more!" This year's harvest is pressed in the warehouse, you don't explain how to dispose of it, and the people at home don't dare to use it at will. ”
Xiao Han touched his chin and said to himself: "A lot, if we weave all this cotton into cloth, will it be easy to sell?" ”
Xue Pan touched the cotton cloth in his hand, nodded and said, "If it's all of this quality, even if the price is higher, it should sell very well!" ”
With that, a pair of profiteers smiled, and at the same time turned their gaze to the confused old woman.
Xiao Han was the first to ask: "Auntie, I have an idea here, you can think about it and see if it is suitable." ”
The old woman looked at Xiao Han: "Nobleman, say." ”
"That's good." Xiao Han nodded and cleared his throat, and then said slowly: "So that you know, auntie, in fact, the home of the two of us is not here, but near Chang'an!" There, we have a lot of industry, almost the size of a county! The environment and people are good, and more importantly, there is a free school to teach children! We are now short of textile experts like you, Auntie, if you want, you can move here! The wages are definitely much better than staying here in this little shop! When the little grandson goes to school, you will take some people to spin and make cloth at home, well, that is, the kind of cloth you just made, I don't know what you think? ”
"Do you want me to move to Chang'an? This one...... It's too sudden, let me think about it. ”
The old woman never thought that Xiao Han would let her move as soon as she opened her mouth, and it would be as far away as Chang'an! I wanted to refuse directly, but when I heard that there was a school teaching, I hesitated again.
Xue Pan is now an unmarried husband! Seeing that the old woman was hesitant, she immediately said to the side: "Auntie, Chang'an is actually not too far from here, if you are homesick, you can come back at any time!" Besides, when you go to Chang'an, the things that your grandson is exposed to must not be accessible here, not to mention anything else, if he really succeeds in his studies, he can be directly recommended! It's much less effort than working your own! ”
I have to say that Xue Pan always grasps the most important point when he speaks!
Speaking of herself alone, the old woman may not leave Hanzhong! But when it comes to the future of her child, she has to think about it carefully.
Seeing that the old woman frowned and was silent, Xue Pan made a slightly calming gesture to Xiao Han, and then kindly beckoned to the little boy who had been curious about where Chang'an was: "Little brother, do you want to go to study?" ”
The little boy hesitated, walked over and asked cautiously, "Can you be an official by studying?" ”
Xue Pan didn't expect the little boy to ask like this, but he didn't react for a while, but Xiao Han laughed all of a sudden, he didn't expect such a shy child to be an official fan!
Xue Pan, who was awakened by laughter, glanced at Xiao Han and continued to say with a pleasant face: "Of course, if you read well, you can naturally be an official, and you can also be a big official!" ”
"Official?" The little boy's eyes lit up suddenly, and he pointed at Xiao Han and said, "Is it an official who is bigger than the big brother?" ”
Xue Pan held back a smile and nodded in affirmation: "Yes!" Officials older than him! ”
"Then no one dares to bully us?" The little boy asked excitedly.
Xiao Han also leaned down at this time and smiled: "Not only does no one dare to bully you, but you can also bully others!" What do you think? ”
"I don't bully people!" The little boy said to Xiao Han very seriously, "Grandma taught me that bullying others is not good!" But don't let others bully you! I just want my grandma to have a good life! Don't work so hard every day! ”
"Good boy......" The little boy's immature voice suddenly hit the softest position in the old woman's heart, and for a while, the hesitation and fear in her heart disappeared without a trace immediately after this sentence!
After the death of her wife, there is nothing for her to remember here! Now it seems that it is okay to go out and venture for the future of your grandchildren!
"We are willing to go to Chang'an with your nobles!" The old woman said this without the slightest hesitation.
"Good! Auntie, you wait to pack up your things, wait a few days, and go on the road with Panpan, and also, the journey to Chang'an is not easy, don't take those large items, when the time comes, we will make up for you again! Xiao Han happily explained to the old woman clearly, then said goodbye and went out of the store with Xue Pan.
There were people waiting outside the store, and I don't know how they found it here, as soon as they saw Xiao Han come out, several people wearing official uniforms hurriedly saluted: "Xiaguan to meet Lord Hou!" ”
Xiao Han, who had just gone out, stood still, looked at these people with some surprise, and found that these officials had their own impressions, most of them had escorted him when he went to Xiao Lian's house.
"Which one are you doing?" Xiao Han asked strangely.
The man at the head of the official was full of bitterness, this was not what he did, he was really hurt by his bastard cousin!
Just now he heard that there was a disturbance in the bazaar, and when he brought people there, he was a little annoyed to see that those people led by his cousin were beaten so miserably! But when he heard the description of the beaters, he only hated why he didn't just beat them to death!
It's not good for you to provoke anyone, you have to provoke this master, isn't this the old birthday star hanging, tired of being crooked?
didn't dare to explain his relationship with the blind bear, the team leader only dared to bow his head and said: "Back to Hou Ye's words, it was all the lower officials' lax governance, so that a few ruffians collided with Hou Ye, and the lower officials have locked them all back to the prison, and I implore Hou Ye to send them down!" ”
"Oh, for those guys!" Xiao Han understood why the team leader looked guilty, but at this time, he was also angry, and waved his hand casually: "It's none of your business, if all the bad guys in the world are caught, then you won't need it!" As for how to punish it, the state has its own laws, and you can do it yourself! However, I think the people in the bazaar hate them to the core, should they be punished severely in order to calm the people's hearts? ”
Hearing that Xiao Han didn't blame himself, the team leader hurriedly nodded: "Yes!" It should be punished severely! Hou Ye, don't worry, this time you will definitely let these people suffer enough, and they will never dare to do evil again! ”
Xiao Han smiled and didn't say anything anymore, the little boy hid behind, looking at the way the eldest brother reprimanded others for his majesty, and secretly planted a seed in his heart, in the future, he must be so majestic!
