Chapter 56
While still writing, she heard someone talking outside, as if talking about her affairs, she thought about it, she should go out and have a look, lest Mrs. Wang would have any idea about her again this week.

When I went out, I found that it was Carpenter Yuan and his neighbor Uncle Jiang. Carpenter Yuan pushed a cart, which was basically the same as the one she had drawn. When she saw it, she said, "It's really done, it's so beautiful! "

Carpenter Yuan rubbed his head, and said with some embarrassment: "I drew your painting from memory after I got home, but when I was doing it, I couldn't make it in several places. It was too detailed, so I had to ask me to draw it." His master came out of the mountain, and he praised the exquisite design when he saw it, and then said that these small parts can be made by blacksmiths and are more durable, so it took so long to work."

Xia Yu gently pushed it, it was very labor-saving and not tiring at all, and there are many mountains here, so it is also possible to use it to go up the mountain.When Zhou Wang saw it, he said, "Who thought of this thing?"

She also knows that with this, it will be much easier to do farm work in the future.So I took it from Carpenter Yuan, tried to push it on the spot, it was very light, and immediately made up my mind.

Carpenter Yuan replied honestly, "It's your daughter-in-law."

As soon as Zhou Wang heard it, he moved his mind and wanted to take it as his own. "Since it was thought of by my family, Xia Yu, it should belong to my Zhou family."

"This..." Carpenter Yuan was a little embarrassed. He used high-quality wood and added pig iron to it. Not to mention the wages, the materials alone cost nearly a tael of silver!However, compared to the price of buying a cow, this so-called "wooden cow and horse" is still much cheaper.

In rural areas, this is not only easy to do, but also saves time. It is much faster to push than to use manpower, and some people will be willing to buy it.

Xia Yu didn't expect that his kindness would cause others to suffer losses. He winked at Carpenter Yuan and said, "Let's keep this thing at my house for now! Calculate the cost of labor and materials, and my mother-in-law will supply it to you." .”

When Zhou Wang heard this, she still wanted to take the money!She was a little reluctant, but it was impossible to give it to others for nothing, so she asked, "How much does it cost to do this?"

Carpenter Yuan understood Xia Yu's eyes, signaling him to talk more, and said, "Two taels of silver."

When Zhou Wang heard that he wanted so much, he said, "Aren't you lying to me? This thing is worth two taels of silver?"

Carpenter Yuan said, "Look, Aunt Zhou, all the materials used here are of the highest quality."

Xia Yu thought in her heart, this Carpenter Yuan was considered honest, so she only said two taels of silver, if it was her, she would have to say five taels of silver, which made Mrs. Wang dare not even think about it this week!
Although Zhou Wang said it was expensive, he still took out two taels of silver and gave it to Carpenter Yuan.After Carpenter Yuan left, Mrs. Zhou Wang said, "Xia Yu, if you have any thoughts in the future, don't tell others. Those people have been taken advantage of for nothing."

Xia Yu glanced at her, she didn't want to take advantage of Zhou Wang's even if she took advantage of others, it was really funny to hear her say that.

After they left, Xia Yu went back to the courtyard again. She was still writing until dinner time, Zhou Wang was a little strange, "Xia Yu, what are you writing?"

"Look for yourself!" Xia Yu said.You can't understand anyway, why should I tell you?
