Chapter 82 I'm sorry. The girl originally thought that getting rid of a few girls would make her feel more relaxed. Who knows, but Ke Han has never felt lonely after being away from a few people like today!
However, in order to find Xiu'er as soon as possible, he could not stay too long in "Longxugou" and had to say goodbye to the three lovely girls. Therefore, as soon as they stepped into the courtyard gate in Apple, they resolutely
Driving a carriage and leaving the different "Longxugou"
When Pingguo, Lihua and Haitang came out after arranging their dormitories, Ke Han was nowhere to be seen. Pingguo couldn't help but cursed: "This little heartless one!"
Haitang also muttered anxiously: "He forgot to take away all his things and left them behind. What should we do?"
Lihua carried Ke Han's homespun bag and looked through it curiously. It contained several changes of clothes. This was not surprising. However, when the three of them took a closer look, they couldn't help but gasp.
It turned out that there was a small bag at the bottom of the homespun bag, which actually contained no less than fifty taels of golden gold. No wonder it was so heavy!
Lihua quickly rearranged the bag, tied the mouth of the bag tightly, and said calmly to Pingguo and Begonia: "Forget it, let's go in first, he will probably come back! How can we not spend money outside? Wait until he finds out
I forgot to bring my money, I’ll get it back without calling!”
After returning to their dormitory, the three of them carefully prepared their beds. They opened their packages, got a change of clothes and prepared to take a shower, but they almost screamed in surprise at the same time.
Their screams were so terrifying that even the girl next door was alarmed. She ran over and stretched her head and asked, "What's the matter?"
However, under the surprised and surprised gazes of others, the three girls pursed their lips and shook their heads.
"Crazy!" A fat old woman who was supervising the dormitory cursed, and then yelled fiercely, "Go to bed early, I have to go to work tomorrow. I was surprised. Do you still have some rules?!"
"Got it!" Apple and the others quickly replied respectfully, hurriedly sorted out their packages, put them away, then each took their clothes and went to take a shower.
What surprised them was that there was someone dedicated to help with the laundry here? And they didn’t have to pay the bill themselves, which was a lot easier.
The next day, before dawn, Pingguo and his three maids were woken up and urged to go to work picking mulberry leaves.
"Young lady must have suffered a lot while working here!" Haitang sighed inadvertently, which evoked the resonance of apples and pear blossoms, and she couldn't help but sigh again.
The air seemed to freeze suddenly, but in this hot summer day, their thoughts were still filled with sadness!
When the three people were sighing, they were interrupted by the angry shouts of the dormitory manager, the fat old woman. She shouted in a long voice: "Hurry up, let's get to work!"
They didn't have any breakfast at all. After hurriedly washing up, they followed the crowd to Mulberry Forest carrying a wicker basket.
The three people lined up and picked mulberry leaves among the mulberry trees. In less than half an hour, they picked a basket full of mulberry leaves. They were very happy, while others were still picking mulberry leaves in the field.
But they turned around happily carrying the willow baskets on their backs.
When I arrived at the storage room, I was scolded before I even entered the door.
The man only briefly glanced at the mulberry leaves in their basket, and his attitude was extremely unfriendly.
"Look at what you picked back? Hasn't anyone taught you before? Every piece of waste wood! Withered, old, yellow, insect excrement, sand... all of them are unacceptable.
You have all harvested, and some of the young leaves have also been mixed up by you. These three baskets of mulberry leaves have been wasted! Go back and pick again. You have to distinguish whether they are too old or too old.
Don't pick the tender ones, don't pick the withered and yellow ones, don't pick the ones with insect excrement and sand! What the hell, do you think you are a wealthy lady? Are you kidding here?" The person in charge of accepting materials is a shriveled and thin old man.
, apparently older than the bald man, he yelled wildly, and then said angrily to the three girls, "It seems that you don't just understand, but don't understand at all! Alas, I still follow
Just say it briefly——"
The three girls, who were in high spirits just now, suddenly felt a little discouraged.
It turns out that the work of picking mulberry leaves is not easy. Not everyone can do it well. I feel angry and aggrieved, but I still hold back my anger. Everything is difficult in the beginning. There is no way. There is only one lesson for this shriveled old man.
They all listened attentively. Although they were not interested in sericulture, they would only be able to see the young lady if they stayed here.
"We are raising summer silkworms now. The silkworms we are feeding are still in the young silkworm stage. The mulberry leaves needed at this time are mature and good leaves!" The withered old man showed no mercy at all when facing the three cute little princesses.
Instead, he reprimanded her even more sternly, "When picking leaves, the main thing is to look at the color of the leaves. They should not be too old or too young, and they should not be mixed with mud and insect leaves! Listen carefully, the mulberry leaves eaten by first-instar silkworms are green.
The mulberry leaves are yellow in the middle. The mulberry leaves eaten by second-instar silkworms are green leaves, while the third-instar silkworms use dark green leaves! Leaves are picked mainly in the morning and evening. You already know this? The mulberry leaves must be loosely packed.
Rinse the leaves with clean water before putting them into storage. You all press the leaves very hard. This will cause them to turn yellow easily and become stuffy!..."
The three of them were a little confused after listening to the old man's endless talk about "washing hands three times" when entering a house, feeding silkworms and "changing shoes twice", disinfecting the bed, removing sand and cleaning the ground, washing and drying silkworm gear frequently, and so on.
It is advisable to keep tools far away, burn dead silkworms, and there are many germs around. Prevention is better than cure, and lime should be spread frequently... For the three girls, these are all messy things, and they will never forget them. They think that these knowledge are related to
They have no relationship!
They have a reason in their hearts for them to endure: we are not here to learn how to raise silkworms, we are here to find the lady, and we want to take the lady back home with us!
However, Miss He Yanzi is usually very kind to a few people. She has stayed with her for a long time and learned a lot of things. Although I can't say that I am proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, I can still know a little bit about it. It is like those in the countryside.
Sisters have no chance to learn elegant things, and her temperament is not inferior to that of ordinary ladies! Although she may inadvertently reveal the wild nature of village girls, she is also very cute.
People should know how to be grateful, so the three of them were determined to find the young lady!
The three people have roughly the same idea: right now, the nearly ten taels of gold that the little county magistrate stuffed into each of our bags, although we are not sure that it is a gift to ourselves, as far as this amount is concerned, it is indeed enough to spend our time.
Life in my hometown in the countryside!
In this way, the three of them disdained the explanation of this wizened old man, so that what he said later only had a rough impression, and they did not dare to expect them to be proficient and dedicated!
The hearts of gratitude are always the same. They decided not to break up before finding the lady! They must be patient and wait for the lady to appear again.
At this moment, they were not very serious when listening to the old man's explanation. However, they still had a little idea of how to pick mulberry leaves that they urgently needed to know. Why did they stop hastily while others were still picking? It turned out that picking mulberry leaves
Mulberry leaves still have so many ways?
Although they were unwilling to be reprimanded, they had to endure it in order to have a reason to stay. So, a few people took the key points to heart in a decent manner, regardless of whether this thing would be used in the future.
, learn and do it first and then talk about it
When we returned to the mulberry forest, it was already daybreak. At this time, others were rushing towards the warehouse with willow baskets on their backs. From time to time, these people looked at the three girls with mocking and contemptuous looks.
"Why are you laughing? This is just my first time doing this job. No one is born with it!" Apple stuck out her tongue and muttered dissatisfiedly at the backs of the group of people, "We have been with you for so long.
, after all, they still know some music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but these stupid girls only know some menial jobs, so what’s so great about it!”
"Hey, miss, miss, where is the miss?" Lihua became irritable. She took off the backpack from her shoulders and threw it to the side. She couldn't control her temper and shouted passionately, "This girl
Unbearable!"
Unexpectedly, Pear Blossom's swing hit the leg of a girl who just passed by, causing her to stumble and fall.
When Haitang saw this, when the girl was getting angry but before she got mad, he quickly stepped forward to help her up, and apologized again and again: "I'm sorry, girl! My girl is in a bad mood, a little irritable, and I hurt you. I'm going to hurt you."
Doesn't matter? Oh, I'm so sorry!"
Unexpectedly, the girl didn't say a word. She calmly gathered the mulberry leaves scattered on the ground, picked them up and put them away. She carried the willow basket on her back thoughtfully and walked forward silently.
Looking at the girl's back, Lihua felt a little embarrassed. She arched her back, bowed deeply towards the girl's back, and shouted shyly: "Sister, I'm really sorry!"
The girl still didn't respond and left without looking back.
