In a village, a hundred-year-old boy eats chicken, duck and fish all day long, and he doesn't even pretend to be farming. How can he not be discovered?Yang Feng felt that this would not last long. Once someone found out that it was tricky, it would be a capital crime that could not be avoided. One night, he took Sanjie Ji and ran away secretly. Fortunately, the two had no children, so it was easy to run.

At that time, Yang Feng's injured brother had long since disappeared, and the couple had nothing to do with it. They mixed in the refugee team and found another place to settle down incognito. Later, Third Sister Ji had a child, a boy. Son, seeing that the child needs money to grow up, Yang Feng has no other skills. The main reason is that he doesn't want to work hard, so he wants to return to his old job, and he will never come back after he leaves.

Those who bullied their orphans and widows in the village drove them out and occupied their house and land.

Sanjie Ji didn't dare to make trouble, for fear that both mother and child would be killed. Following her previous experience, she made a living after leaving the village. Taking advantage, and there are people who collect protection fees to pick on the weak and bully. The hard earned money is not enough to eat. It is also because Yang Feng took her before that he didn't make her suffer. She couldn't hold on to the hard work, so she took the child to do it. Beggar woman, go to one place, eat in one place, don't stay anywhere for a long time, afraid of being disturbed by the ruffians, but this is not a long-term solution, she is worrying, and whenever she thinks of it, she will meet Ji Mo.

"In this case, you just go back to the village with me. There are two houses in my place. Make one room for you to live in first."

Ji Mo saw the appearance of Ji Sanjie and the child, thought for a while, took the two to a clothing store and bought two sets of clothes, and then asked the shopkeeper to add money to have them scrub with hot water at the back of the yard, and change them into clean clothes. Clothes, aside from other things, at least look decent.

Sanjie Ji looks a lot older these years. Women in their late thirties are the same as those in their 40s. The child is fine. She looks thin, probably because she is growing up. In the future, eat more oily and watery foods. alright.

He took the two of them to the pharmacy to see the doctor, and after making sure there was nothing wrong, Ji Mo took them back to the village.

"Where is the use of wasting money? Your third sister and I are in good health. It's really a lot of money. How can we spend it so much? With this money, what's wrong with doing something?"

Ji Sanjie didn't see anyone at all, and she started nagging on the way back in the donkey cart. The unfamiliarity of more than ten years was wiped out by these nagging words.

The child's name was Yang Xiao, and he was taciturn. If Sanjie Ji hadn't patted his back and made him call "Uncle", Ji Mo would have thought the child was autistic and would not be able to speak.

"I don't dare to get sick if I have anything, and I always feel relieved when I look at it."

Ji Mo was really frightened by Uncle Li's illness, it didn't look serious, it was just a cough and cold, why did he die in the end?

The principle of this, I'm afraid I really have to wait until I study medicine to understand.

Many people in Yangjiazhuang were surnamed Yang, and Yang Xiao quickly integrated into the place, and lived with Sanjie Ji with peace of mind.

Nowadays, almost no one in the village is studying, except that a child of the village chief’s family has been sent to study in the town. Ji Mo’s food and clothing are not a problem here, but it’s too difficult to earn money for repairs with the paper maker, but it’s not enough. So that the child doesn't learn anything, the key is that in Ji Mo's concept, a child of this age must go to school, and only after learning knowledge can he be successful.

He specifically went to find the great monk, and sent Yang Xiao to become a disciple of the lay family. He went to work in the temple on time every day like going to and from school. He could have a lunch and learn characters with the companion of the little monk in the temple. Knowledge.

After making arrangements for the children, even if the family affairs have settled down, Third Sister Ji also worried about Ji Mo's marriage like a matchmaker, and is planning to find a sister-in-law who is easy to get along with. gossip.

Ji Mo stopped her directly: "Sister, let me tell you straight, I have never planned to marry a wife and have children in my whole life, if you help me block those matchmakers, you are doing me a favor. Xiao treats me like my son, just let him die for me."

In terms of professional knowledge, he is only two points away. Although he can't get it done, the hope of returning home is getting closer and closer. Ji Mo has no intention of marrying a wife and having children here. Does he want to be a paper maker all his life?That was really hard.

"Do you really think so?"

Ji Sanjie didn't immediately dissuade her, but instead asked directly, her eyes were bright, there is no extra person to be the hostess in this family, it's good that she is not angry as an elder sister, but she is a little sorry for her brother.

"Hmm."

Ji Mo was about to make the most difficult paper figurine, but the trouble was that when Uncle Li went, he was so sad that he forgot to ask how the paper figurine's eyes were drawn, which made people feel a little worried.

Uncle Li made that kind of paper figurine once in front of him, and later told him about the taboos, mainly the hollow grass used to make paper, also called Tongyin grass, which is collected from graveyards , it would be even better if there were mass graves.

Those rotten and tattered clothes were pulled back from the mass graves. They should have been stained with blood and resentment during their lifetime. They were made of paper after retting with Tongyin grass. The smell... Ji Mo feels offensive when he thinks about it. It's really memorable.

The paint and the like have to be re-mixed again. Uncle Li has also talked about the key points here. It is his first experience as a master. The lectures are not so systematic. There is a lot of thought. Things, there is one or the other, if you talk about the front and forget the back, you still rely on Ji Mo's mind to remember, write it down every day and think about it carefully in your heart.

In the past three years, I have been observing filial piety, doing business, and writing books, but I have actually written most of them, and I still need to revise them carefully.

In the book, Ji Mo divides the matter of paper binding into several parts. The first part is paper making, the second part is paint, the third part is inner lining, several levels of bamboo strips, and several levels of paper. The fourth part is related taboos. As long as those taboos that have increased his professional knowledge have been written down, the fifth part is anecdotes. anecdote.

Later, I added a sixth part, summarizing my experience of making paper people, etc., and also talked about how to do related business, distinguishing the types of customers, and what grade of paper people customers need, etc. , on the whole, it can be regarded as a classic type, and the reference value for future generations is still quite large.

It's a pity, last time he went to the town to have a look, it was not easy to publish it, the price of engraving and printing was too high, he didn't have that much money now, but he had so much money, he could use this book None of them are necessarily literate, and those who are literate probably don't have any paper maker.

——This is really too contradictory.

"Since you say so, then I will help you block it."

Ji Sanjie was not polite at all, and happily agreed.

"it is good."

Since Sanjie Ji came to the house, apart from other things, Ji Mo doesn't have to worry about housework, and he can write two more lines every day. Other things, Sanjie Ji's craftsmanship is not to be mentioned when it comes to cooking. He was even more skilled at rinsing and rinsing, which saved Ji Mo a lot of worry and realized the benefits of having a mistress at home.

But let's forget about marrying a wife or something. He is still a student, and it is serious to study hard.

Ji Sanjie is very competent as a shield. When the matchmaker comes again, she will lure them out for a small chat, and when the chat is almost done, she will pick her nose and eyes, and make embarrassing requests one by one, and she is not afraid of them agreeing. If they agree, she has more difficult demands here.

A matchmaker was so anxious that she raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Even if a scholar's family marries a woman, you are not as picky as you. I think you, a big sister, are obviously uneasy and kind!"

These words have touched the hearts of many people, and some people specifically mentioned this matter to Ji Mo on occasions when Ji Sanjie was not there, and asked him to take care of it, and have an idea, don't give up the family business to others.

"What kind of family business can I have here? The third sister's housekeeper is also very good. She is also good for me."

I didn't expect that "for my own good" could be used as a shield. Ji Mo dismissed those kind-hearted people in this way, and his ears became much cleaner.

When I went to see the great monk again, I didn't expect the great monk to hear this, and asked him with a smile. After Ji Mo answered, he also smiled: "I'm still a master and I don't care about these mundane things."

"People are in the world of mortals, what is not commonplace?" The great monk said very Zen words, and he did not persuade Ji Mo like this. There are no monks who persuade people to get married, but turned around and introduced him to a business. It is a big business, but there is a strange request, to make paper dolls under the nose of others.

"What does that say?"

Nowadays, people's minds feel unlucky about these things that are used for everyday things. Among them, the paper figurines are not real people because they are stained with a "person", which makes people feel even more terrifying. If you know how to read, you are afraid that if you read too much, the paper figurine will come to life.

There is an anecdote that you can't look at the paper figurine, otherwise you will suck your own soul into it.

The great monk shook his head, he didn't know much about it, he just said that the family was a big family, probably because of their particularity.

There are many things to do for a rich family. Take carpentry for example. It is common to find people at home and leave when they are done.

Ji Mo is not like Uncle Li, he also has the idea of ​​cherishing himself with a broom, at least it was introduced by the great monk, if he doesn't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, he must agree once.

"Okay, then I will go and have a look, and I would like to thank the master."

"It's okay, it's okay."

The great monk waved his hand, not claiming any credit at all, he just took advantage of the convenience of information, there are always people from all over the world who come to offer incense and pray for Buddha, and talk about one or two common things, he is here to help the middleman to make contact with others, and to facilitate himself , Things that benefit both sides should not be credited.
