Chapter 267

Luo Tiandu went to the yard and saw that Xiang Lan was cleaning the yard. Her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. The weather here in April is very hot. After a little activity outside, she was about to get dressed. sweat.

Luo Tian looked at Xiang Lan twice, and asked in surprise, "Sister Xiang Lan, are you fat?" Xiang Lan used to have a standard small waist, but now it seems that the waist is a bit thick and round. many.

Xiang Lan glanced at her, pursed her lips and smiled and said nothing, Fang heard this, and said angrily, "Why can't you speak so much, sister Xiang Lan, you are getting fat, she has it."

"Ah?" Luo Tiandu was really happy this time, turned his head to look at Xiang Lan's stomach, and said, "Sister Xiang Lan has a baby?"

Xiang Lan also beamed with joy: "Dr. You just took the pulse yesterday, and it has been two months." She and Cheng Qingnian are both old, and they thought this would be the case in this life, and the Cheng family could only point to Cheng Sheng to add incense, I never thought that I would have it at my age, so I was naturally very happy.

"Does Brother Cheng Qing know?" Luo Tiandu asked again.

"Not yet. My family has been very busy these days. I think I will tell Ah Qing after he finishes his work in a few days."

Now Yi County is not short of manpower, especially there are all kinds of craftsmen and so on, but there are no shops of any kind in the county. Luo Baisu wants to build all kinds of craftsmen, and others can be delayed. But the pharmacy, the blacksmith shop, etc., can't wait, otherwise, if someone has a headache, he will go to the county government to invite someone to make some ironware, and he will have to go all the way to the neighboring county. convenient.

The location of the medicine hall is easy to choose. Luo Baisu has allocated a space on the street and left it to Dr. You, but the blacksmith shop needs to be well planned, and the blacksmith shop is no better than other shops. He has a very picky personality and has a lot of demands. Luo Baisu doesn't understand this, so he told him to choose a place to go. Cheng Qing is strong and reliable, so Luo Baisu asked him to follow Old Gan to take care of him.

Luo Tiandu nodded, thinking of something else, and said, "I don't know if Zijin will have a little brother or a little sister in the future."

Xiang Lan and Cheng Qing are both good families now, but they used to be slaves to the Luo family. Although the Luo family are all good-natured and don't look down on others, Luo Tian said to Xiang Lan today that she will give birth to her in the future. The child made Luo Zijin a younger brother and sister, so he clearly treated Xiang Lan and Cheng Qing as a family. Xiang Lan was very moved when he heard it.Of course she knew that Luo Tian was just talking casually, but it was the words that were said without thinking that were the most true.

She also said with a smile: "Little lady, do you hope that the young master will have a younger brother or younger sister to accompany him in the future?"

Luo Tian thought about it seriously, and said, "It's best to have a little brother."

Xiang Lan laughed at her: "The little lady is a girl herself, so she also favors boys over girls."

Luo Tiandu said: "That's different, our two families are small, so naturally it's best to have more males to support each other in the future."

Xiang Lan said: "I think that if you can give birth to a daughter like a little lady, it will be no different from giving birth to a son for the rest of your life."

Luo Tian thought to himself, with her like this, I'm afraid she will be the only one in the world, and she has caught up with the resurrection of the dead.After listening to them talking for a long time, Mrs. Fang said: "It's better to have a son. If you really want to have a girl like her, you will suffer."

Xiang Lan knew what Fang was referring to, but she just pursed her lips and smiled.

Luo Tian looked at Lan's age is not too young, she and Cheng Qing got married so late, finally got pregnant at this age, and couldn't bear to see her busy up and down, so she told Fang , to add two people to the family.

Within two days, Zishu brought over two capable daughter-in-laws, saying that they were picked by Luo Baisu, and they would stay in the mansion to help with rough work.Probably Luo Baisu also knew about her problems, so he only chose two older girls to help with rough work, and the girls who took care of her personally did not make their own decisions, but said that they would take her with them when they were free. to see.

Luo Tian pays more attention to privacy, and is not used to being followed by people around her. Now even Luo Ming is not allowed to touch her own underwear, and she doesn't want a stranger to take care of her. The arrangement is very suitable for her.

When I get busy, the days always pass quickly, and it will be the Dragon Boat Festival in a blink of an eye.

Luo Tiandu wrapped a few red envelopes, with [-] Wen in them, and gave them to the two new wives. Since Xiqiao and Zishu stayed at Luo's house for a long time, Luo Tiandu gave them a red envelope. They paid half the money, and Xiang Lan and Cheng Qing also gave half the money each.

A hunter went into the mountains two days ago to hunt some small prey such as roe deer and rabbits, and sent two to the grandfather's mansion as usual. Luo Tiandu asked the two daughter-in-laws to clean up and burn them for dinner.

Now the population of the Luo family, in addition to Luo Baisu's family of four, Uncle Gu and Cheng Qing's letter to Lan Xiqiao, there are four more old men Liu and the two new daughters-in-law, there are fifteen people, old and young. Then, Luo Baisu led Gu Bo Cheng Qing and old man Liu to set up a seat in the outer room, and Mrs. Fang led the female family members of the mansion to set up another seat in the inner room, and celebrated the festival lively.

Two days later, an old carpenter, Mr. Wu, rushed over from outside with a stack of papers in his arms, and said to Luo Tiandu, "Give me some money, I'll go and fiddle with some small things."

There are not many people in Yi County who can read and write, and even fewer can manage accounts. Among the official slaves who were escorted later, because many of them were the children of criminal officials, there were quite a few who could read and write. After all, it's not easy to let these people handle it, so Luo Tiandu's accounting post has not been taken up to now, and she is still in charge. Luo Baisu is very relieved of her because of money, what's going on at home If you want money, just ask her.

Luo Tiandu then asked him: "How much do you want to pay?"

Old man Wu thought for a while: "I don't want more, just give me twenty hangings."

Luo Tian shook her hands and almost destroyed another quill pen. She asked patiently: "The day before yesterday, Old Man Gan paid five tangs and said that if you want to build a stove, today you will need another [-] tangs. What do you think?" Look, what exactly do you want to fiddle with, and you need [-] taels of money?"

"Make a kite."

"Kite?" Luo Tiandu repeated, thinking to himself, what kind of kite is it that costs [-] yuan to make it?

Old man Wu came prepared, unfolded the paper in his hand, and said to her: "Here, I want to make this, and I need more materials, so I asked for more money than old man Gan last time."

Luo Tian scolded Wei Que in his heart, who is not good to send them off, but old man Liu is fine after sending these ancestors here, he leads the villagers to plant crops every day, he goes out before dawn and comes back after dark, then Dr. You was not picky either, Luo Baisu picked a place for him, and he went to tidy up the thatched cottage by himself, but old man Gan and old man Wu were the most hateful, they tried every means to pay her every day, if they paid the money, they went outside It's okay to eat and drink indecently, but she still has an excuse not to give it. These two old men are not picky about food or clothes. They take the money and play with those gadgets. In the end, nothing was possible, and all of them failed. Two days ago, the old man did not know what to do, and almost blew up the house where he lived, and the beard on his face was burnt.

"Did my father sign it?" She asked again, after all, this would be the official account of the yamen, without Luo Baisu's consent, she would not dare to pay the money.

"Master Luo said that it is good for the young lady to make up her own mind."

"This is the yamen's bill, and my father has to make up his mind to pay the money." Luo Tiandu then took a payment request form from the table and handed it to him, asking him to ask Luo Baisu to sign it. At that time, he glanced at the blueprint that Old Man Wu had brought over, and felt that something was wrong, and said, "Wait, this old man drew this himself? This is what you want to do?"

Luo Tian thought to himself, don't be what she thinks.

Originally, when Luo Tian asked him to go to Luo Baisu to sign the form, the old man was discouraged. He had already approached Luo Baisu once before his head. If it was a normal situation, Luo Baisu agreed to pay and signed immediately. , let him come back to discuss with Luo Tiandu, and the old man Wu knew in his heart that Luo Baisu must not be willing to pay the money, and he came to Luo Tiandu just to try his luck. Going to find Luo Baisu, knowing that the money might not be able to be paid out, seeing Luo Tian changed his mind, and asked about the blueprint, he immediately said: "That's it, little lady, don't you understand, old man, I'll give you a closer look." Make it clear, hey, if it is really made, we humans will be like birds in the future, and we will be able to fly in the sky.

Luo Tian raised his eyebrows. As early as the first time he saw it, he realized that the blueprint was actually a model of an unpowered delta wing. It was drawn very carefully, stroke by stroke, even the scale was marked. Even people without artistic skills can understand it at a glance.

Old man Wu is usually a boring gourd, but when it comes to carpentry, especially those advanced inventions that people can't understand for the time being, it's like a different person, who can talk from morning to night.

"I know what this is." She interrupted old man Wu, for fear that he would start to explain incessantly.

She finally understood that if they were placed in modern times, the old man Wu and the old man Gan must be the old pedants who are just doing research. In this era, the conditions of science and technology are limited, and the status of craftsmen is low. These craftsman technologies that can bring convenience to human life as long as they mature are also accused of being strange and obscene skills, and are looked down upon by the world. This old man Gan and old man Wu , especially the old man Wu, that is a scientific research fan.

Luo Tian has enjoyed the convenience of life brought about by the development of science and technology, so he doesn't despise these craftsmen. He just asked him: "What materials are you planning to use? Have you ever calculated? These materials are heavy, plus the weight of an adult. , where the air flow can support such a large weight? Also, even if it flies, how can it maintain a stable flight in the air without a power system? What if the wind stops in the middle of the flight and it falls? "
