Chang’an Peasant Girl

   Chapter 189 Her husband will spend money

   Watching Xiao Changyi readily pay the rice shop owner a tael of silver, she said quietly, "..." Do you want to stop giving money to her husband in the future? Her husband is really good at spending money.

   However, she also knew who he bought the polished rice for.

   When she thought that Xiao Changyi bought it for her, Jing Jing felt sweet in her heart. Her husband bought rice for her without a cent left. How could she be unhappy or sweet.

   Moreover, their family is not as poor as the poor now, and they can indeed eat better.

   I can eat thicker porridge in the future!

   Occasionally, a bowl of rice!

  So, as soon as he got home, Jing Jing smiled and took out a tael of silver from his purse to Xiao Changyi, and let Xiao Changyi put it on his body in case he needed to use it.

  Xiao Changyi's money is basically spent on An Jing. Since An Jing wanted him to put some money on him, Xiao Changyi didn't refuse, took it as usual, and put it into his wallet.

   But he was thinking about what to buy for his daughter-in-law next time.

   As soon as 50 catties of polished rice were put into the rice jar, Xiao Changyi and An Jing were in the yard together with An Jing, assembling the rice threshing machine.

The carpenters and blacksmiths are quite skilled, and the parts of the rice threshing machine are made exactly as An Jing painted, which also reduces the difficulty of assembling An Jing and Xiao Changyi. It only took half an hour for An Jing and Xiao Changyi to The paddy machine is assembled.

  An Jing was originally afraid of making something different. Seeing that the final assembled thing is really the same as the old-fashioned rice threshing machine that her grandfather's foot stepped on, she was relieved and at the same time very happy.

"Xianggong, look, the direction of the drum has to be turned forward in order to knock down the grains. If it is turned backwards, the grains will not be knocked down, the straw will be brought in, and even human hands may be knocked in. You will be seriously injured, so when you hit the rice, be careful not to get hurt."

  Quiet held a handful of straw as a demonstration. While stepping on the paddy machine, he taught Xiao Changyi how to play and what to pay attention to.

  Xiao Changyi listened very seriously, and he nodded and replied, "Yeah."

   Once the rice threshing machine was finished, it was not carried into the house, but kept in the yard. Except for the two of them, no one knew what it was used for, and they were not worried that someone would steal it.

   What's more, this thing is quite heavy and bulky. It is really difficult to steal it without being discovered.

   Then, quietly cook lunch, while Xiao Changyi went to the mountain to chop bamboo with a knife. He wanted to chop a bamboo suitable for flute and come back.

   When Xiao Changyi came back with bamboo, he also brought back some reeds.

  In the evening, Xiao Changyi finally made two flutes, and An Jing kept watching Xiao Changyi make them. Seeing Xiao Changyi make two, she didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Changyi and smiled.

  Xiao Changyi calmly engraved characters on the two flutes, one with the traditional "Changyi" and the other with the traditional "Jing'er".

   Seeing the words engraved by Xiao Changyi, Jing's smile became even bigger, and his heart was also sweet.

  Although the flute is ready, it still needs a flute membrane, which can adjust the sound of the flute.

  Xiao Changyi took the film from the reed stem, and then attached it to the second hole on the left end of the flute.

   Once the flute film was attached, the flute was completely finished, and Xiao Changyi handed the flute engraved with the word "Changyi" to An Jing.
