Reborn the wonderful life of ancient times

Lin Huaide was very busy, and no one at home sent them to school, so Lin Zihao had to practice driving a carriage for a few days.Although he had driven an ox cart before, but the level was different, it really hurt the brains of this serious young man for a few days, and he could barely manage it after a few days of practice.

Fast forward to October, it was already very cold, and I couldn't even stretch out my hands. Seeing his elder brother's hands that were red from the cold, Lin Zimo taught his mother to sew a few pairs of gloves.The gloves with a layer of thin cotton were pulled halfway, and they were warm on the hands. Although the exposed fingers were still cold, they were barely acceptable.

Zhou Shi and Lin Yu were also very interested in this glove. After looking at it over and over for a long time, Zhou Shi lovingly touched Lin Zimo's gloved hand: "You are a very smart kid, but it's a pity that you don't have much interest in reading and writing. , or you have to be stronger than your two elder brothers." Lin Zimo said with a big head, "Mother, I'm already very serious." Don't talk about study with him, whoever talks about study is in a hurry.

Lin Yu played with a pair of cotton gloves that had just been sewed and said with a smile: "Mother, don't tell the third brother about this. Anyway, the eldest brother and the second brother are very good at learning. If the third brother can learn well, he will learn. It's okay if he can't. But this I think the glove is an opportunity." Zhou rolled her eyes: "What opportunity? What do you know?"

Lin Yu pouted, not daring to contradict him: "I mean, I can sew more gloves and let my brothers take them to the county to sell. There must be none in the county." Lin Zimo's eyes lit up, yes!This one is definitely not for sale. Ever since I got these thousands of taels of silver, the family has been making big moves. After the house is built, there are only three or four hundred taels left. If you add the money for custom-made and written furniture, there should be no big ones left. Earning money is imminent, and the dividends of vermicelli will not come down until the end of the year.

Mrs. Zhou frowned: "There are only a few people in our family and we are still busy building a house. How much can we sew?" Lin Zimo took over the words: "You can ask the aunts and aunts in the village to help you sew more, and we will take them to you later." Sell ​​in the county." Sewn as much as possible, that is, a one-shot sale, Chinese people's copycats have always been very powerful, and there will be imitations within a few days of selling out.

"Okay, I still have a few bolts of fine cotton cloth and cocoon silk at home. When you come back from school tomorrow, you can just bring some back." Those who can afford gloves must be above average, so they are exquisitely made. That's right.

Lin Zihao, who was practicing writing on the kang table, looked up: "Those are the things that Ouyang's family gave Zimo a few days ago, and they are still useful at home. When we arrive in the county tomorrow, we will go around the cloth shops to find those out-of-date fabrics to buy." It must be much cheaper to come back."

Lin Zimo looked at this elder brother with admiration, his integrity was tactful, if he entered an official career, he would definitely go a long way.Mrs. Zhou nodded, "That's fine. It's almost Chinese New Year. Let's make new clothes out of the materials at home!" New clothes and shoes have to be sewn by hand, and it takes a long time to fly, so it's not too early to make arrangements.

Lin Zimo suggested: "Mom, can you sew a belt around the waistband of the trousers?" He had already had enough of crotch-free pants, even if he sewed on a few belts, the waistband was always a big lump.Lin Zimo's proposal to make fitted trousers was rejected by Zhou's approval.Pants that fit well will be scolded to death.

Show Mrs. Zhou the appearance of the waistband of the trousers with elastic bands. If there is no elastic band, cloth belt can be used instead.Zhou's eyes lit up, this is acceptable: "That's all right, fasten the belt, don't worry about it falling off." Lin Zimo figured out why the ancients had belts on their trousers, and they had to wear belts on top of their coats!Not only for the sake of beauty and airtightness, but also to prevent the pants inside from being untied (^_^)

Grandma came in from the outside and said with a smile: "What did you mother say? I heard laughter from afar." Several people hurriedly helped grandma to the kang, Lin Zimo complained: "Grandma, I told you not to let you You just don't listen!" Huang smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, you go to school tomorrow, your mother has to pack up your things for you, I'll go and see when I'm free, and I don't need to work." The old man I am very satisfied with my current life, and I only want to help my children live a better life.

Looking at grandma's face that was a little red from the cold, Lin Zimo suddenly remembered an important thing. He had a hat, gloves, and two other things. It was better for him and his second brother to sit in the carriage, but his eldest brother had to drive outside Yes, I hurriedly drew the appearance of the mask and the appearance of the scarf to Mrs. Zhou: "Mother, do you think these two things can be made?" As he spoke, he compared his mouth and neck.

Mrs. Zhou took a closer look and said, "Okay, mother, try it. These things are good. Your elder brother will save you from freezing." It can be said that Mrs. Zhou's hands are very skillful. With the help of Mrs. Huang and Lin Yu, it took half an hour The hour will be done.

The mask is easy to make, just need two layers of cloth and some thin cotton, but the scarf took a bit of effort, it took three pieces to get a suitable one.The dark blue muslin cloth and the cocoon surface of the dark blue blessing character flower are very comfortable to wear around the neck, but it is beautiful without wool.

Sitting in the carriage with the curtains closed, Lin Zimo worriedly watched Lin Zihao driving the carriage.I really want to put up a sign in front of the carriage: Novices on the road, please keep your distance.Fortunately, the carriage is a precious thing, and there are not many people on the road.

Lin Zihan patted the younger brother who was obviously nervous: "It's okay, big brother is very good at driving an ox cart, and a horse-drawn cart can also do it." Every day working, reading, and sleeping with his big brother, Lin Zihan is full of admiration for his big brother.Lin Zimo smiled at him, turned his head and looked out of the car nervously, Lin Zihan could only shake his head, picked up the book and read it hard.

Finally, amidst Lin Zimo's worries, the carriage wobbled to the county seat.The school was very close to their new home in the county seat, so the three brothers decided to leave the carriage in their new home and go to the school on foot.

The rattan bookcase was too heavy, Lin Zimo asked Zhou to make three cloth schoolbags that could be slanted, and the three brothers put the masks, scarves and gloves in the new house.Wearing the same royal blue cocoon silk gown, a navy blue thin cotton cape, and a blue patterned schoolbag slung over his shoulder, he walked to the school majestically.

Walking to the gate of the school, Laiwang, a boy from Ouyang Mansion who was familiar with Lin Zimo, was waiting there. Seeing Lin Zimo's eyes lit up, he rushed up to take the bookcase in his hand, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't help it. No: "Master Lin, where is your book box? My master asked me to wait for you here."

Lin Zimo smiled, lifted his cloak, and revealed his schoolbag: "Here, you don't need to carry it, lead us to your young master." Laiwang glanced at the schoolbag in surprise, and hurriedly led the way before entering the school gate.

The gatehouse with blue bricks and gray tiles, and the large yard paved with blue bricks, several peach and pear trees were planted in the yard, implying that the world is full of peaches and plums.Two rows of clean and tidy green brick and tile houses are lined up, and the sound of reading can be heard loudly.

Walking into the third row of houses, the doors and windows are wide open, allowing people to see the inside at a glance.There was a quiet man in his 40s with a long three-strand beard, fair skin, and a pair of red and phoenix eyes sitting on it. Rows of small tables were full of students in their teens, and Ouyang Zhi sat on it. in the rear position.
