Chapter 18 I can’t think of a title, please help me think of it
"Why can my brother-in-law lie to you? Not only can he do it, but he can also make kites you have never seen before."
"Brother-in-law, you are so great, brother-in-law is so awesome!"
Ahem, my brother-in-law also knows that he is very powerful, but you say this...
Look at my little sister...
Huang Mao, you can't think so wildly!
At this time, Fu Yunshuang simply ignored a problem. Her sister just didn't let them go out. If the servants were asked to buy a kite, who could say no? Just ask the housekeeper.
And Li Xiuzhu can really make a kite. Can't he do this with his hands?
"Polygonatum odorifera, do we have bamboo at home? Just one."
"Bamboo?" Yuzhu was confused for a moment. You can't let me look for bamboo just because my name is Yuzhu, right?
Yuzhu thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "Although there are bamboo tubes at home, there is no fresh bamboo."
"A bamboo tube will do, as long as it's more than half a meter long."
"Caidie, do we have mounting paper at home? One meter long will do."
"Yes, I'll go get it right away."
Watching the two leave, Li Xiuzhu suddenly smiled while looking at his two aunts who were still playing.
I didn’t expect that I could experience the joy of raising a baby after traveling through time. Is this considered a way to live a long life?
Well, it seems quite fun, why don't you go back and let Nong Yue give birth to... two of them?
No more, after all, the child is just an accident!
The bamboo tube was brought quickly. Li Xiuzhu opened the bamboo tube, scraped off two small bamboo strips and threw them aside.
Yuzhu:???
I work so hard, but you just use two bamboo strips as thin as that??
I'll cut two of them from a big broom for you. It's easier to grow them.
It's a pity that Li Xiuzhu couldn't hear Yuzhu's voice, and even if he could hear it, he wouldn't do it. The bamboo branches are thick at the top and thin at the bottom, and the force is uneven, so the kite can't fly.
After finishing the bamboo strips, Li Xiuzhu took the mounting paper brought by Yun Shuang again. This was the only paper available that was thick enough.
Apart from this kind of paper, the only type of paper that can withstand the wind and weight of carrying a kite into the sky is probably the only paper made specifically for kites.
That kind of paper is similar to the paper used by papermakers for funerals, but it has better toughness, is less airtight, and requires special craftsmanship.
Li Xiuzhu couldn't find that kind of paper for the time being, so he could only mount paper instead.
Before cutting, Li Xiuzhu used bamboo strips to measure. Fortunately, there was no need to splice it. One of the bamboo strips was slightly shortened to fit the leading and trailing lines of the paper.
Cut out a square piece from the mounting paper, and then cut out a thin strip of paper. The preparation work is almost complete.
"Yuzhu, go get another roll of sewing thread. It needs to be stronger."
"Okay uncle."
Li Xiuzhu took this opportunity and went to the kitchen to get some paste.
There is no glue or tape, so I can only hold it up temporarily.
If you sew a few more threads to fix the bent bamboo strips, it should be less of a problem.
By the time Yuzhu brought the sewing thread, Li Xiuzhu had already glued a dragon bone on the diagonal corners of the square paper.
However, the other keel is a little more troublesome, because it is curved and needs to bear force, so it is very difficult to stick. Even if Li Xiuzhu has cut this piece of bamboo thin enough, fortunately it is not very elastic, he can still think of a way.
Li Xiuzhu took two square bricks and pressed them down, waited for them to dry, and then inserted needle and thread back and forth to fix them on the paper at certain intervals.
Finally, make two symmetrical holes at the intersection and below of the keels, tie the crossed keels and vertical bones, and then glue on the slender tail, and a simple kite is completed.
It can fly, but it can't fly up to a few hundred meters. It can only fly up to a height of seventy or eighty meters before falling apart.
"Brother-in-law, is this a kite? Can the kite we made really fly?"
"It is possible, but it can only fly easily. The height of twenty or thirty feet is about the same. After all, the materials here are not specifically used to make kites, so we can only make do with it first."
Even so, Fu Yunshuang is already very satisfied. She just wants to have a kite of her own and experience the happiness that others have experienced.
"Thank you, brother-in-law, can we fly the kite now?"
"Yes, yes, but wouldn't it be too monotonous if it were just a blank sheet of paper? And it would not be very auspicious.
How about we use pen and ink to draw something and make a kite exclusive to Yunshuang?"
Exclusively for Yunshuang. At this moment, the second aunt's eyes lit up and she was attracted by this word.
At the same time, Xiaosan and Xiaosi, who had already been attracted by the two of them making kites, were a little anxious and shouted unhappily: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I want a kite exclusive to Baozhu."
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, Yanyu also wants his own kite."
Li Xiuzhu was happy, is this the joy of raising a baby? Being surrounded by children begging for help?
Li Xiuzhu squatted down, touched their heads, and then said with a smile: "Then you kiss my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law will make you a kite exclusive to Yanyu and exclusive to Baozhu."
At this moment, Yuzhu and several maids became numb. Isn't this...this...not deceiving ignorant children?
But just when they were debating whether they should care or not, the two little girls didn't care so much and already kissed Li Xiuzhu on the cheek.
Li Xiuzhu didn't think too much about it. How could he have any bad thoughts towards two seven or eight-year-old girls? It was just his love for children. Wasn't everyone like this in his previous life?
Encouraged by the two babies, Li Xiuzhu made two kites again. This time he was much more proficient with the template.
Before Li Xiuzhu could finish it, Yun Shuang had already brought the inkstone and pen.
"Yunshuang, you grind it first, and I'll come back when I've roughly finished the kite."
"Okay brother-in-law, I'm not in a hurry. You can help the mistresses and mistresses first."
While Yun Shuang was grinding, she looked at the three people, one old and two young, busy, and suddenly felt very relieved and happy.
Suddenly, Yun Shuang's face turned red, and she suddenly thought that if she were older, her elder sister would marry her brother-in-law first, and would the same thing happen after giving birth to a child.
It is said that young girls cherish poetry the most. In this era when people could get married as early as 12 or 13 years old, Yun Shuang's understanding was not much worse than that of later generations.
At this time, Li Xiuzhu didn't know that he had actually become the object of his second aunt's illusion, otherwise he would have said: Don't come over!
While Li Xiuzhu was helping the two girls glue the keel, he returned to Yun Shuang and said, "Now you can fill in some pictures for this kite, or write a poem."
"If you add your name or character next to it, it will be exclusive to Yunshuang."
Yun Shuang said softly "Hmm" when she heard this, and looked at the paper with a red face.
Li Xiuzhu didn't care. He wasn't familiar with Yun Shuang, and he didn't know what Yun Shuang was like in normal times. Moreover, he didn't see Yun Shuang blushing when he was next to Yun Shuang.
After giving instructions, Li Xiuzhu went to make the kite again, but after a while, Yun Shuang's voice came.
"Brother-in-law, come here!"
ps: Please help me come up with a title. I have been thinking about it for a long time and have been frantically testing on the edge of death.
