The little ancestor of the family

Chapter 173 Research on Thresher

"Do not worry!"

Lu Changqing readily agreed.

The matter of the thresher was handed over to Changqing.

Ye Xinran then put all her energy into treating Leng Qingyu.

Leng Qingyu really couldn't muster up the energy these days.

Ye Xinran knew that the poison in her body was well controlled and would not affect her.

The only thing that could have put her in her current state was her mood.

"Mrs. Lu, this is a beautiful feather that Chang'an found. She asked me to give it to you."

Ye Xinran handed Leng Qingyu a shuttlecock made of beautiful feathers.

Mrs. Leng looked at the feather in the middle. Wasn’t it the feather from the tail of the red rooster at home?

A few days ago, Leng Qingyu praised the beauty of the feathers, but I didn’t expect that today it would be on the shuttlecock.

Leng Qingyu smiled, feeling a little weak.

"This kid is really something. How come he remembers even these few things?"

Ye Xinran sat down on the stool beside the bed.

"Changan likes his grandmother, so of course he will take her words to heart."

she says.

"I know you are still sad about Lord Lu's matter, but we can't stop what has happened, and we can't change a person with ulterior motives.

Instead of wasting time on him, it is better to spend your time on the person you like. "

Leng Qingyu looked at her daughter and didn't expect her to be so insightful at such a young age.

Then he said: "I understand the truth, but when I think about how my sincerity for more than ten years has been betrayed, I feel that my past is not worth it."

“Since we all know it’s not worth it, let’s just move on.

There is a saying that goes "stop loss in time".

You should think that it is a good thing that you have only wasted more than ten years. For the next ten or even several dozen years, you will not have to be deceived by evil people. Isn't that good?"

"it is good!"

Leng Qingyu's expression was still lazy.

Ye Xinran knew that heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine.

Leng Qingyu can only get out of this predicament by himself.

However, she still suggested: "If you feel that your more than ten years of time are not worth it, then we will hold the person who wasted your time accountable. The Marquis has let you down, so let him pay the corresponding price."

"But……"

Ye Xinran's words touched Leng Qingyu's heart.

The reason why she was so depressed was that after going through all the things from beginning to end, she found that she could not do anything.

Even if it is proven that the Marquis has a mistress outside, what can it do?

If the Marquis loses his reputation as a doting wife, people will also see him as a jealous woman.

If she wasn't jealous, how could there be no room for other women in the house!

In Daliang, it has never been a problem for a man to have three wives and four concubines.

But if a woman is jealous, people will talk about her behind her back, and it may even affect her children's marriage.

Leng Qingyu was so negative because he thought of this.

"Ma'am, you take your reputation too seriously!"

Leng Qingyu couldn't help but frowned after listening to her explanation.

Leng Qingyu's life seems bright and glamorous, but she seems to have put a lock on herself.

I locked myself in a cage, unable to escape or break free.

"Over the years, the Marquis's Mansion has been relying on your income to maintain their current lifestyle. If you are irritated, the Marquis will lose more than just his reputation as a doting wife.

He will lose a lot, so much that he will regret it."

"really?"

Leng Qingyu's eyes lit up.

"Of course!"

Ye Xinran smiled and poured her a glass of water. "Why don't you cut off his brother's family's income first and see how they react."

Having found his future goal, Leng Qingyu seemed to become energized all of a sudden.

Two days later, she was back to normal.

There has been no reply from Beijing yet.

Leng Qingyu started with the shops in Yuntong County and began to take stock of the accounts for the past year.

In the past year, she has handed over many things to Lu Zhiyi. Now, it is time to take back her rights.

……

Leng Qingyu was doing the accounting every day while Lu Changqing was busy making the thresher.

Sometimes I go home early and help Leng Qingyu look at the account books.

After so many years, this was the first time Leng Qingyu realized that his son had grown up.

He is no longer the boy who struggled to survive under her wings and always competed with his sister for favor.

Lu Changqing read the account book quickly and with sharp eyes. He carefully left doubtful marks on the account book.

Leng Qingyu saw this and discovered for the first time that his son actually had a talent for business.

How much has she ignored over the years!

……

Ten days later, the prototype of the thresher was made.

Lu Changqing took a day off and took Ye Xinran to try out the machine.

The thresher was made exactly as shown in the drawing.

Each rivet is carefully polished.

At first glance, it looks like it was done with care.

The guys give them the machines to use.

The huge thresher started to turn, and the grains on the rice ears were quickly swept away. Even Ye Xinran was surprised by the speed.

However, Ye Xinran also discovered the problem.

The ventilation holes were relatively small, so debris and rice grains did not separate naturally when they fell to the ground.

Ye Xinran asked them to make some slight adjustments.

Three days later, the thresher adjustment was completed.

An ox cart pulled the thresher to Yunbian Village.

It was delivered directly to the village head's home.

The villagers gathered around the thresher and marveled at it.

Some young people wanted to touch it out of curiosity, but the village head slapped their hands away.

"Uncle Lizheng, what is this?"

"Yeah, it looks so big, what can it do?"

"What is this..."

The village head didn’t remember.

He opened his mouth, but finally looked at Ye Xinran and said, "Explain it to them."

Ye Xinran had already prepared a handful of rice ears.

The rice in the headman's house had not been threshed yet, so it was a good opportunity to use it for demonstration.

"This thing I made is actually for threshing for everyone."

Ye Xinran explained.

"You all worked hard to help me build a house some time ago, and you delayed the threshing work.

So my brother and I came up with this thing to make threshing easier for everyone.

This thing looks big, but it is actually very simple to operate. I will show you how to use it now.”

Ye Xinran said this as she stepped one foot onto the pedal of the thresher.

When the drum in front of the thresher started to rotate, she placed the rice ears on the drum.

Before everyone could see what was happening, they only heard a "swish" sound.

The rice grains on the rice ears were completely removed.

"Oh, this is amazing!"

"Yeah, how come this thing is so powerful, the rice grains are gone in a flash!"

"Who said it wasn't! I've been working on threshing rice for half a month and still haven't finished it. If I had this thing earlier, I could have finished the work in half a day!"

"My God, if I hadn't been tied up with this little housework, I would have gone back to see my wife a long time ago. This time there is hope."

Amid the discussions among the crowd, Ye Xinran stopped what she was doing.

The high-speed rotating drum also slowly stopped.

"Xinran, this is a good thing. You must have put a lot of thought into making it!"

The village head touched the thresher lovingly, and then asked, "How much do you charge for renting your thresher?"
