Chapter 9 Noodle Press
Mrs. Liu looked coldly at Ms. Zhao who had just entered the courtyard, "Sister-in-law, how many do you want for three pennies a stick?"
"What? What more money do we need as a family?" Mrs. Zhao clicked her tongue twice and began to scold, "My father and mother just passed away. We separated just a few months ago, and you don't recognize us as a family? Your man doesn't Your eldest brother helps you at home and in the fields. Did I ask you for money?"
"If we say we are a family, then I will go to your vegetable garden to pick vegetables soon. My eldest brother is not asking for money for helping, but I am not treating you badly. I can give your family a lot of food."
Mrs. Zhao coughed slightly, rolled her eyes, and said sternly: "Oh, my eldest sister-in-law is like my mother. You are contradicting me with every sentence, and you are taking my eldest sister-in-law seriously?"
Mrs. Liu knew that she had a guilty conscience and her words were untenable. She began to use her seniority to control others and was too lazy to deal with her. "Sister-in-law, I will give you five ice creams today for free. It's my treat. You'll have to pay for it if you come back in the future." Buy it. Haoer will bring it to your aunt."
Taking the ice cream happily, Zhao's goal was achieved today. No matter what she said, we will talk about the future later, "Brothers and sisters, I'll leave first."
Mrs. Liu suppressed her anger and returned to Shen Yunyao's house.
Shen Yunyao tried to persuade her, "Mom, why are you so angry? Don't get angry because of someone you hate. Who will be proud of you then?"
Mrs. Liu took a deep breath, "You're right, think about it. Why hasn't your father replied? Even if he didn't, he should have replied. All the soldiers in the village who have been soldiers for three years have responded."
"It's June now. It's supposed to be the time for your father to return home last autumn. He's been on the road for almost a year, so it's time to reach home." Ms. Liu suppressed the tears in her eyes and thought wildly in her mind, whether something happened to the head of the family. It's over.
Shen Yunyao said: "Mom, don't think too much. I believe that dad will come back safely. No matter how we think, we can't get the news. It's better to find a way to make more money. If we go to find dad in the future, there will be troubles on the way."
"You're right. I should make more money. I can still sell ice cream for more than two months. According to the current market situation, I can save almost eighty or ninety taels. This is really a lot of money. Then I will go... Go cook." Ms. Liu didn't say that. The child at home was still young, so how could she go out.
Seeing her mother rushing out in a hurry, Shen Yunyao sighed. In this era, there are no mobile phones, so it's not that easy to find someone.
I think her talents are of little use here. How can we make intelligent machines in an era when there is no electricity or machines? She knows many things, but she cannot reasonably describe these abilities now.
She could think more about machines and gadgets that don't have electricity to save her mother's energy.
She remembered that she had seen manual noodle pressing machines sold online before, and she could try making a wooden version. In the future, she could sell noodles when the weather gets cold.
There are no carpentry tools now, but you can ask the carpenters in the village to make the parts and then assemble them yourself.
She couldn't use drawings and couldn't explain the origin of the paper. Shen Yunyao could only make do with rags at home and cut out the shape of the parts.
"Sister, what are you doing?" Shen Yunhao was ordered around by his sister and came over curiously.
Shen Yunyao told him the sizes of the parts represented by the pieces of cloth, and then said: "You will take these pieces of cloth to the village carpenter and ask him to make them. It must be made of hardwood that can be polished smooth, no matter what kind of wood it is. Ask the carpenter how to calculate the wages."
Shen Yunhao wrote down what his sister said and asked his mother for ten dollars before going out.
Shen Yunyao had several parts made every day for five consecutive days, and finally she had enough parts for the dough press.
On the day when the noodle press was taking shape, Shen Yunyao really wanted to eat noodles.
People in the village are poor, so they only eat steamed buns during festivals and only occasionally eat noodles.
None of Shen Yunyao's family had ever thought of eating noodles.
Since selling bird's nests and ice cream, Liu's money has become bulging, and she is willing to buy some rice and flour for her children to improve their food.
She doesn't buy much, she usually makes pimple soup.
Shen Yunyao was also speechless. What should I do if my cheap mother can't bear to make delicious food? She can only eat more good food and make more money.
Shen Yunhan excitedly shook the handle of the noodle machine, "Sister, you are so awesome! Can this thing really make delicious food?"
Shen Yunyao: "You will know in a moment."
Mrs. Liu heard her eldest daughter say that this thing could make money, so she tolerantly experimented with white dough.
When she saw the noodle machine pressing out dough and then thin noodles, her heart was filled with excitement. This was all money!
She quickly calmed down and asked, "Could that carpenter make this thing himself and sell it?"
Shen Yunhao said loudly and arrogantly: "Of course not. My sister is so smart, how can she let others take advantage of her? These days, the carpenter has only made parts, and even the cloth used to guide the making of parts was brought back. My sister finally assembled it. Absolutely no one will do it!”
After hearing what her son said, Ms. Liu felt relieved, "This thing is too eye-catching. Even if we use it, we have to hide it. You are not allowed to go out and say it."
The children nodded obediently.
At noon, everyone ate a bowl of noodles that had been soaked in cold water.
Little did they know, their every move was reported to Mu Hanxiao that night.
"Noodle press? Have you seen the making process with your own eyes?" Mu Hanxiao was shocked, and his voice raised unconsciously.
The man in black replied: "I saw it. The woman put the parts together with skillful skills."
Mu Hanxiao didn't expect that the girl she met by chance would give her a surprise. Such a capable person was not at all like an ordinary country girl.
A broken leg can be recovered quickly, and a noodle press can be made.
She seems to be hidden in the mist, only her figure is revealed. Even if she observes further, it is impossible to see through it. People can't help but take a step forward to see, who is she?
Mu Hanxiao ordered: "Keep watching. If her life is in danger, save her. Go back."
He wanted to see what else she could do, so she couldn't make any mistakes. Even if he warned her like this, he didn't think a village girl could be in any danger.
"yes."
The man in black answered, but was shocked in his heart. He didn't expect that the master valued the village girl so much. He didn't ask him to protect her before. It seemed that he had to brace himself and keep a close eye on her.
After practicing her spiritual power for a month, Shen Yunyao was finally able to hold objects within 30 grams.
Whenever she had time alone every day, she would take things in and out of the space until her mental energy was exhausted, and then she would run the exercises to recover.
This process made her mental strength increase rapidly.
From time to time, she would take the small packaged snacks in the space alone to satisfy her cravings.
The days of pretending to be sick were difficult, but it also gave her more time to practice and strive to obtain more things in the space.
It’s been more than a month since I got it, and I’ve been eating vegetables at home, and there’s no meaty taste at all.
Shen Yunyao was greedy and wanted to eat meat.
