Chapter 187: Sister-in-law Zhen
"Brother Hui Hui, his newcomer is not sensible,." Jin Bing smiled and grabbed Xia Ye, who was not angry: "Don't apologize to Brother Hui soon." ”
Apologize? Why should I apologize to him, Xia Ye glanced at the men in the shop opposite, what a group of bullies, they all came to Buzhuang to be servants, what is so powerful?
Xia Ye didn't intend to be soft, nor did she plan to be tough, after all, she just came to Buzhuang, and it was not good to make any trouble, Xia Ye didn't say anything and turned around and walked to her shop and sat down.
"Hey, you stinky boy, how dare you show our brother Hui's face?"
"Brothers, teach him a lesson!"
The man in the opposite shop shook his fist, ready to beat Xia Ye in a group, Xia Ye put down his clothes, although he was a little scared in his heart, but his bones could not be soft, she had already apologized just now, it was he who was unreasonable first.
"Brother Hui, give my brother a face." Jin Bing stuffed something into Yan Hui's hand and said, "Buy some wine for the brothers to drink, the brothers are all angry, don't be like him as an ignorant guy." ”
Yan Hui swept the money in his hand, and then pointed at Xia Ye: "For Jin Bing's sake, I won't move you today, and you won't be so lucky next time." ”
I didn't expect to provoke such a bully in Buzhuang as soon as he came, Xia Ye glanced at Jin Bing with a little guilt, he also came to Buzhuang to work as a worker, and he actually took so much money for her to Wang Hui just now.
Fortunately, she brought all the money bags on Mo, and she returned the money to him when she found time.
Five watches, the sky is not yet bright, everyone got up to work, Xia Ye rubbed her eyes, she didn't sleep well all night, the snoring in the house came and went, but fortunately she took advantage of the dark night to change into the clothes of the servant of the cloth village.
Xia Ye washed his face with cold water, the whole talent was in a lot of energy, and after tidying up the broken hair on his forehead a little, Xia Ye went out to work with them.
When crossing the aisle, someone deliberately bumped her with the shoulder, she knew that it was Yan Hui's person last night, Xia Ye covered the sore shoulder, but she didn't say anything.
"I'm going to Yunbu today, you wait here first, your new sister-in-law Zhen should come to you." Out of the room, Jin Bing said to Xia Ye.
Xia Ye glanced at Jin Bing gratefully: "Well, I see." ”
After Jin Bing left, Xia Ye looked at the ground that was still a little wet, presumably it must have rained all night last night.
The weather was a little dry and cold after the rain, and Xia Ye waited in the warehouse in the backyard with his thin body in his arms.
A smartly dressed woman of the same age as Jin Niang walked towards Xia Ye: "You were new yesterday?" ”
"Yes, my name is Li Ye." Xia Ye nodded and asked, "Are you Sister-in-law Zhen?" ”
"Hmm." Sister-in-law Zhen looked at Xia Ye's small body: "Can you do the work of Buzhuang with this body?" ”
"Sister-in-law Zhen, don't look at me as thin, but I have a lot of strength." Xia Ye immediately recommended herself.
Maybe he is small but has the same strength as that Jin Bing, and besides, he will not recruit some people who have no strength to enter the cloth village: "Okay, then you can come with me." ”
Xia Ye followed Sister-in-law Zhen into the east warehouse, where dozens of dye vasks and workers were busy.
"I'll teach you how to dye cloth today." Sister-in-law Zhen took Xia Ye to a dyeing vat: "Here is almost the dyed cloth that is about to be dyed, and looking at the final precipitation color of the dyed cloth, you will know whether this cloth is dyed or not." ”
"Hmm." Xia Ye listened carefully.
Sister-in-law Zhen took her to a dyeing vat again, and the workers in front of the dye vat used wooden sticks to stir in the dye vat in a regular manner.
"Dyeing cloth is a hard work, and you can't dye good cloth without a good handful of strength." After Sister-in-law Zhen finished speaking, she took her to an empty dye vat, picked up a white cloth that had not been dyed on the side, and put it in the dye vat layer by layer, each layer was the same width.
Xia Ye was not only amazed that Sister-in-law Zhen could grasp it so accurately in the dye vat, you must know that the dye in the dye vat is thicker than ordinary water.
When a piece of cloth was halfway placed, Sister-in-law Zhen asked Xia Ye to try the feel.
"May I?" Natsuba asked uncertainly.
"No one ever arrives, and then practice makes perfect." Sister-in-law Zhen smiled and handed the cloth to Xia Ye.
Xia Ye was a little nervous and took the cloth in his hand, and then followed the example of Sister-in-law Zhen just now, and put the cloth layer by layer into the dye vat.
As a result, the cloth she put was either one more or one less, and it was not neat at all, Xia Ye looked at the dye vat and the cloth in her hand a little nervously, not knowing how to start.
"You're not doing it right." Sister-in-law Zhen pointed Xia Ye's finger at her: "Collecting and releasing the cloth, the strength should be consistent, and it should be fast, you can't put it down and take a look, so that the cloth will slide away." ”
I didn't expect these gorgeous clothes she was wearing to be so particular before dyeing, Xia Ye took a deep breath and began to try it slowly.
After Sister-in-law Zhen's guidance, it is much better than just now, at least three or four times without making mistakes, and occasionally adjust it back.
When Xia Ye finishes putting the cloth, the two cloths will be finished.
"Well, the mastery is good, the next thing is to slowly speed up, if everyone is like you, I'm afraid our Buzhuang will be closed." After Sister-in-law Zhen finished speaking, she picked up the wooden stick on the side and put it into the dye vat, stirring it clockwise regularly.
Xia Ye was anxious to learn when she saw this simplicity, and Sister-in-law Zhen handed the wooden stick to Xia Ye: "You turn it down and let me take a look." ”
Xia Ye held the wooden stick and began to turn, when she just watched Sister-in-law Zhen turn, it seemed that it was effortless, why did she come here so heavy? Natsuba not only frowned and turned twice.
Sister-in-law Zhen shook her head: "Your method is wrong. ”
Isn't that right? I just saw that Sister-in-law Zhen turned like this? Xia Ye scratched her head and humbly accepted Sister-in-law Zhen's guidance.
"I just turned the dye in the dye vat, and then drove the cloth in the dye vat, and you turned the cloth directly, it's no wonder if it's not heavy."
"I see!" Xia Ye suddenly realized and started to rotate again, and it was indeed much lighter than just now.
"Well, that's it." Sister-in-law Zhen nodded: "Just turn clockwise back and forth, wait until the color of the dyed cloth is almost finished, then turn counterclockwise, and finally use a stone to press a stick of incense for a while, and then take it outside to dry." ”
Natsuba answered, and then turned the cloth in the dye vat.
Sister-in-law Zhen saw that Xia Ye had basically mastered it, and the difference was to practice more, so she went to see the work of other workers before leaving Dongku.
Although it is easier to stir the dye than the cloth, the cloth alone weighs more, and it is even heavier to absorb the water.
After a while, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Xia Ye's forehead, and then looked at the other workers, all of them had muscular arms, and they were pitiful for her A woman who had to do the same work as a man.
After turning clockwise, Xia Ye began to turn counterclockwise again, and the old workers had already produced a piece of cloth and started the second piece of cloth again.
