The next day, the weather was almost twice as cold. Ji Jiu woke up lazily. It's good that she has many clothes. After washing her face and eyes, she put on several layers of clothing. She really couldn't bear this weather. Even the floor of her house that was always warm was still this cold. Luckily, she had Aunt He help prepare her coat first. Otherwise, another day or two. People probably wouldn't be able to leave their homes.
Today Ji Jiu's older brothers had stoves set up around their work area. She walked over and saw that they had only made a few ingredients left. Ji Jiu sat back and watched them do it comfortably. She was excited that today she would be able to assemble the little cart.
The young men who were working saw their young lady sitting and watching with sparkling eyes. So they rushed to do more. We will test it for you and you together. Three kilos later, all the components were ready. The four young men who remembered how to assemble a large cart taught Kang Jie and Kang Jin how to do it together.
Until half an hour later The small rickshaw was assembled as it was only half the size of the large car. This makes them take less time to assemble as well. Kang Jie was the first to go up for a test drive. Once the car was running and he could control it left and right by himself, It made Ji Jiu realize that such a small car was very suitable for her. Plus the car runs faster than the big one. It was considered that Kang Jie really did very well this time.
Ji Jiu praises them without being stingy. She said that if you have free time you can do more. As for the remaining inventions, there are many other designs. It's still not too late to wait for the weather to get better before doing this. Or if they really wanted to do it, they would only have to go into the palace hall. She didn't want them to get sick first.
The young men looked at each other and nodded to Ji Jiu. They wanted to try something else. Even if you have to go into your house to do it, it's okay. Since the two things they did together were already successful. Otherwise, they were even more excited to find out if they were actually usable or not.
Kang Jie and Kang Jin after testing the rickshaw. They allowed the four brothers to continue their examinations, while they all came to pay respects to Ji Jiu with full ceremony for allowing them to study and take the noble exam. Last night Father came to tell them. And they won't disappoint you. They will try to pass the exam. will be a support force for you in the future
"Sigh, you guys, don't do this. All I did was because I wanted to see your family improve. I don't want you to be slaves like this for the rest of your life. Since the two of you have talent, I would like to support you as much as I can. So don't think too much about it. And I never wanted anything in return from you. Do you guys understand?"
"We understand, sir. Thank you, Miss, for your kindness to our family."
"Alright, you guys hurry up and stop the brothers. Look, they were playing until the dust settled."
Ji Jiu saw that her brothers were so crazy that the rickshaw was running fast, Ji Ji was afraid that there would be an accident. So she hurriedly had the two brothers go and stop them first. Otherwise, if the car would overturn, She would definitely have trouble getting them to go find Boss Yuan again.
The Kang brothers looked up and saw Ji Jiu saying that they were laughing at the big mega-kids playing like children, but they still shouted for Ji Jiu not to stay, and ran towards them. They're all in the car.
Jijiu saw that this matter was in order. She went back to look at the soap on the drying rack again. Ji Jiu poked around and found that she should be able to put it into storage this evening. Luckily, she didn't do it again. If the weather keeps getting colder like this, the soap we have probably won't work as well as before.
Ji Jiu saw that there was still a little time before noon. So she went to look at Aunt Qiao's house. The yard in front of Aunt Qiao's house was spread out with dry grass to keep it warm, before the villagers sat and sewed their coats diligently. They didn't dare delay because the weather was really cooling down so quickly. Jiu had told Aunt Li in advance that there was no need to focus on beauty, but to finish it quickly. As for the people in the household, it would be Aunt Li and Gui Hua who would do the work. Aunt Qiao and Aunt Yu wanted to make it themselves. Ji Jiu did as she wished. Ji Jiu also asked Aunt Li to bring some good cloth to make coats for the old man and his grandson. She was afraid that he would get so cold that he would become sick. He's already old. And she thought that his grandson wouldn't be interested in such things, so she wanted to make the two of them to wear.
Aunt Li was surprised the first time her young lady asked her to sew a robe made of two fine cloths. And the size was even bigger than the four young men in the house. She thought one of them probably belonged to the old man who used to stay at the house. But the other one, she didn't know whose it was, because she remembered the old man's size well. Even though he is old But he was much taller than an ordinary person, so Aunt Li hurriedly sewed two of these for Ji Jiu first. And today she will stuff him with duck feathers and cotton. It is expected that in the evening it will be finished.
Yesterday, they helped clean the duck feathers and dried them. It's good that you said in advance that if the feathers seem to dry slowly, Then put it on the bed to dry and light it on fire. It makes the feathers dry so quickly that they are now almost ready to be used.
After watching them work for a while, Ji Jiu then walked back to her house to eat. She knew that the villagers wouldn't dare eat with her. Aunt Qiao had been preparing lunch with Aunt He for quite some time. She had given money for food to Aunt Qiao from the beginning. So that she wouldn't have to go back and forth several times. She walked and thought about who she should send to deliver the robes to that grandfather. In the end, she was still worried about her brothers. It's best to wait until she finishes eating lunch before asking them again. She didn't want to force anyone to travel in this cold weather.
When thinking about traveling Ji Jiu suddenly thought of the horses at home. She had never seen them with horseshoes. She had forgotten something important. If she let them run on their horses,
Barefoot. In a few years they will probably have to be retired. With such rough roads, a horse's lifespan is shortened.
Ji Jiu hurriedly finished her lunch in no time. She hurried into the room and fetched paper to draw a horseshoe design and its components as soon as she remembered. Where else would you put a saddle and stirrups? Even though she had used horses for a long time. But I just realized it now. Sigh, even though this body is still young, her brain is like that of a forgetful old woman.
After completing all the drawings, Ji Jiu hurriedly brought it to Ji Wenting with a bill of exchange for two hundred taels. She didn't know if the wages were expensive or not. What if she had some left over? Otherwise he would have to come back and get the money again and it would be a waste of time.
Ji Jiu explained to him in detail. So that he could tell the blacksmith to do well, she was afraid that if it wasn't done well, she wouldn't be able to put it on the horse's hooves. Ji Wenting saw the strange things that his young lady had designed again, and these things were used for horses, so he listened carefully to her and memorized them well. Once he received the money and the design, Ji Wenting immediately took his best horse out of the stable and entered the city.
