The poor man grows watermelon

【Put your shoes on with your own hands】

Aunt Chun Jiu worked very quickly, and when Su Ye resumed work, she not only finished Yu Feng's shoes, but also made him a pair.

Aunt Chunjiu said with some embarrassment: "It happened that there was cloth at home, so I made an extra pair on my own initiative. Although it is not as good as the pair on your feet, it is durable and warm. Don't dislike Xiaoye! "

"Thank you, auntie." Su Ye picked up the mille-soled cloth shoes in the bamboo basket, and looked left and right curiously.

The sole is wrapped with black edges, and there are six layers of soles. The upper is made of new cloth. The fabric is tight and the stitches are fine, which is much better than the ones he has seen from the pictures.

Although he didn't say anything, it can be seen from his expression that he likes it very much.

Aunt Chunjiu let go of her hanging heart.

When Yu Feng sent her out, Aunt Chun Jiu said quietly: "At first I was afraid that he would look down on me, but seeing his appearance now, I feel relieved."

Yu Feng said quickly: "Don't think too much, Auntie, Xiao Yezi is not that kind of person."

"What kind of person?" Aunt Chun Jiu cast a glance at him, and joked, "Seeing how closely you protect him, why don't you hurry up and marry him, such a good pair is hard to find with a lantern!"

Yu Feng scratched his head and said with a naive smile, "Understood!"

Aunt Chunjiu smiled, and said: "Okay, be careful on the road, the illness is just right, let Xiao Ye wear more."

Yu Feng responded quickly.

Su Ye tried on the new shoes on her feet, they were not too big or too small, they were just right.

Yu Feng also happily wore it on his feet, he was so happy that he would not go on his way.

However, before going out, he quietly took it off again.

When Su Ye found out, Yu Feng was wrapping his shoes in linen and stuffing them in the bedside table.

Su Ye raised her eyebrows, "Why don't you wear it? Don't you like it?"

"No, no, no!" Yu Feng shook his head repeatedly. Ever since he knew that the shoe sample was drawn by Su Ye, he was in a state of excitement, "I, I'm afraid I'll wear it out, hehe, I'll wear it again during the Chinese New Year!"

Su Ye glanced at him and pushed him back.

Yu Feng was caught off guard and fell down on the bed.

Su Ye took the shoes in his hand, squatted down, and slipped them on his feet without any explanation. As for the pair of straw sandals riddled with holes, he threw them to the toilet through the window.

Yu Feng was completely blindfolded, staring at Su Ye with a pair of eyes, and his tongue was tied, "Xiao, Xiaoxiao..."

"What's so small?" Su Ye poked his head and said angrily, "I have to go to sell cakes early, let's go!"

After speaking, regardless of Yu Feng's reaction, he walked out of the house first.

In a place where no one else could see, Su Ye clenched her fists subconsciously, her face was slightly hot - I didn't know what I was thinking just now, but I made such a move.

Inside the thatched shed, Yu Feng looked at Xiao Shuang'er's handsome back with burning eyes, and grinned like a fool.

-

There is no harm without comparison. Although the previous silk shoes were soft and beautiful, they were not suitable for walking long distances. Now this pair is not only solid, but also warm. Every step I take feels very stable.

Su Ye walked a long way before realizing that Yu Feng hadn't followed at all.

He looked back and saw that the man had his head pierced and his feet were raised high, with one left foot and one right foot, causing the flatbed cart to crooked, as if he was walking through a minefield.

Su Ye was puzzled, "What are you doing?"

"The road is wet, so I'll pick a good place to get my feet off, so don't get my shoes dirty!" Yu Feng replied with a grin.

Su Ye couldn't help laughing, "Wash it when it's dirty. If you walk like this, you won't be able to reach the county at noon."

Yu Feng stepped down on the surface, but his pace didn't speed up at all.

"Go slowly, I'll go first." After Su Ye finished speaking, she deliberately strode forward.

Seeing Xiao Shuang'er's figure getting farther and farther away, Yu Feng became anxious. He couldn't care about his shoes anymore, so he pushed the flatbed cart and chased after him like flying.

-

Su Ye's new shoes caused a little commotion in Hucao Division. Not only Jia Ding and Bian Huan, but even the servants who waited on the pen and ink took a few glances.

In the end, Jia Ding couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Xiao Ye, Jia has the audacity to ask, which store did you buy those shoes on your feet?"

As soon as Jia Ding finished speaking, he was stared at by Bian Huan.

Although Jia Ding was also a little embarrassed, he still bite the bullet and said: "Don't mind Xiao Ye, Jia has no other intentions, my youngest son is as old as you..."

Su Ye shook her head with a smile, and stretched her feet out from under the desk to let them see clearly.

Everyone in the room looked over in unison.

As expected of a businessman, Jia Ding had a keen eye after all, "Is this... is it a thousand layers of bottom?"

Su Ye nodded, and replied flatly, "Exactly."

Bian Huan was a little puzzled, "The thousand-layer bottom that Bian has seen is far less firm than this."

Su Ye said lightly, "It's made by stacking old clothes and rags. My aunt in the village helped to make it. The process is just different."

Jia Ding and Bian Huan looked at each other without asking further questions.

On the contrary, a servant in the house couldn't help but sighed: "If my mother can make such a pair of good shoes, my little brother will no longer cry because of freezing feet."

Su Ye paused and turned to look at the speaker.

Bianhuan reprimanded in a low voice: "Bold!"

The little servant suddenly came back to his senses, his face changed drastically, he quickly prostrated himself on the ground, and said in one voice, "Damn you, damn you!"

Su Ye put down his pen and looked at the young servant in puzzlement.

Jia Ding shook his head and said dissatisfiedly: "Multiple-soled cloth shoes consume a lot of fabric, even if you know the way, your family can't make it, just play it safe."

Although Bian Huan's face was ugly, he still pleaded, "I don't know what to say, just talking nonsense. I didn't intend to find out about the shoes. I hope Brother Su doesn't mind."

Only then did Su Ye understand, and couldn't help laughing, "The way the shoes are made is not a secret, if you want to know, I'll tell you."

As soon as these words came out, not only the servant, but even Jia and Bian were taken aback.

Regardless of other people's reactions, Su Ye took out a cloth handkerchief from the cabinet and drew it with a pen.

Jardin sent the servants out of the house.

Su Ye showed the two of them the shoe samples he had drawn, and then explained in detail how to make shackles, and specifically said: "The material for shackles is rags, and the batter doesn't cost much."

Bian Huan was amazed, "So that's the case, no wonder the pair on Brother Su's feet are so strong, even poor people can make a pair of such layered bottoms, not only strong, but also very warm, the elder brother wears them even if they wear them. It’s really a good thing to leave to the siblings below.”

Jia Ding thought more, pointed at the Fangbupa and reminded: "Xiaoye, do you really want to disclose this recipe? If it is sold in a store, it must have this amount."

As he spoke, he gestured a number with his hand.

It has to be said that Su Ye was indeed very moved.

However, thinking of the servant's words, and thinking of himself lying powerless on the bed, he finally shook his head and replied flatly: "If it is sold, only the rich and the rich will be able to afford it. Where are they short of such a pair of cloth shoes?"

Jia Ding couldn't help but said, "Isn't that right? Rich people never lack good things, but poor people don't even have animal skins to bind their feet."

Hearing this, Bian Huan stood up suddenly, and bowed deeply to Su Ye, "Brother Su Gao Yi, please be respected by Bian."

Jardin came to his senses and bowed deeply.

Su Ye hurriedly replied, "Seniors, I'm so disgusted, it's just a pair of shoes, so there's no need to be like this."

But Bian Huan said seriously: "This is not just a pair of shoes, Xiao Ye, would you like to go with me to meet the county magistrate?"

Bian Huan has always been rigid, but now he really recognized Su Ye, and even called him his nickname.

To be honest, Su Ye didn't want to go.

Since Yu Xiancheng was demoted to county lieutenant, the position of county magistrate has been vacant. Bian Huan has a good family background and is honest, and he has the intention to go further.

Su Ye supported him in his heart, but it didn't mean he was willing to stand out—he knew better than anyone else that he had to keep a low profile before the Su clan gave up looking for him.

Therefore, Su Ye politely refused: "As a twin, the younger generation was ordered to temporarily serve in the Household Cao Division, so he really shouldn't show his face too much."

It has to be said that this kind of excuse works very well for Bianhuan, he said without thinking, "If Xiaoye doesn't mind, I can let Bian do it for me and tell you something?"

Su Ye followed the trend and said, "Thank you, senior."

Bian Huan rarely showed a smiling face, and was very grateful for Su Ye's trust.

-

As a result, it is conceivable that the county magistrate is very interested in the practice of cloth shoes with thousand layers of soles.

What's even more rare is that after hearing Su Ye's statement that "it's inconvenient to show his face", he took the initiative to come to Hucao Division and asked Su Ye how to make thousand-layer-soled cloth shoes in front of Jia and Bian.

The county magistrate immediately asked: "If I send someone to Yujia Village to learn this skill, would it be convenient?"

It has to be said that this kind of inquiry is extremely polite. As his parents' official, no one can resist even if he gives an order directly.

Su Ye replied neither humble nor overbearing: "It's the slack season now, and my aunts and aunts must be very happy to be able to serve you."

It's no wonder that Su Ye made his own claims, and taking this opportunity to get involved with the county magistrate would be of great benefit to the entire Yujia Village.

The county magistrate was very satisfied with his "knowledge", and he said with a smile: "The cloth and flour used in the teaching process are all provided by the county government, and the peasant women who teach can receive wages according to Zaoli standards."

Su Yingying thanked without changing his expression.

The county magistrate raised his eyebrows and continued: "Don't worry, I won't wrong Yujia Village. Although the prescription will be made public in every village, I will point out the official clothes and shoes of the county government and townships to Yujia Village. Do."

Su Ye was stunned, and thanked again.

After successfully seeing Su Ye's face change, the county magistrate smiled in satisfaction and walked away.
