Chapter 3 Winter is Coming (Part 2)

"what's on your mind?"

Wei Chi was in a state of ecstasy. Before Xie Jiu fell asleep, he opened his black eyes and asked Wei Chi in a low voice. Wei Chi patted her and said, "She is the patient, so why did he take the medicine and become energetic?"

Xie Jiu smiled and then pressed Wei Chi a little closer. His watery eyes were very seductive and said, "I'm so painful that I can't sleep."

"Pan" slap, not heavy, hit the sister on the butt, and hit her through the quilt. Wei Chi laughed and scolded: "What kind of monster do you want to play with? If you are sick, take a good rest. Seduce me again. Be careful to correct the Dharma immediately."

Xie Jiu laughed and didn't say anything, but just looked at people with his eyes open. Wei Chi rolled his eyes, went over helplessly, and said consciously: "Okay, sister, I'll give you a massage, stop seducing people anymore! Tell me, how do you want to press it? We are an amateur in massage!"

After coaxing Xie Jiu to fall asleep, Wei Chi didn't sleep all night. As long as Xie Jiu was around him, he would wake up. Who knew that they were used to modern medicines and environment, and what changes would happen after coming to ancient times? Therefore, Xie Jiu's disease really scared him, for fear of being unacceptable to the local environment. It was not because he was scared by a small cold.

They have been here for half a year. Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be the time when they are not adapting to the local environment. I hope it’s just a common cold.

When she got up early in the morning, she called Xie Jiu to take medicine and drink water, eat breakfast, and asked her to continue to sleep. Wei Chi went out to find a craftsman, why? She was wearing a kang!

There was no air conditioner and the stove was afraid of carbon monoxide poisoning. After thinking about it, the kang was the safest and warmest. Not only the couple's room, but also the lower room, they were on the board and asked the butler Cheng to gather the people. Wei Chi explained the way to burn the kang, and didn't want them to be frost-diseased, nor did they want them to burn the kang too much, which made them get angry.

The craftsman, Wei Chi, came to Carpenter Zhou to introduce the business. Of course, we have to take care of our acquaintances first. Among the craftsmen that Wei Chi is familiar with, it is Zhou Nianfu, Carpenter Zhou.

Carpenter Zhou and his wife were very grateful to Wei Chi, the head of the family. Every time they talked to Wei Chi, they were respectful, which made Wei Chi very uncomfortable. In his opinion, he just found a craftsman with good skills to worship. Why did they give him the feeling that he had done something very amazing?

After a detailed explanation, the craftsman started the work. Carpenter Zhou also helped and said to Wei Chi: "Young Master, don't worry, all I have found are brothers with good skills, and I will never miss the young master's explanation."

Wei Chi smiled and patted Carpenter Zhou on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I don't worry about doing things. By the way, can you carve a carving version?"

"Simple carvings can be engraved, complex, and require better carving skills. What should the young master print? I also know carvings with good craftsmanship, so I can introduce them to you."

Wei Chi thought about it and pulled Carpenter Zhou into the study and asked him to look at the drawn table. After Carpenter Zhou looked at it, he said that this was very simple and he could do it. Wei Chi quickly handed over the work to him and asked him to do it.

Carpenter Zhou is very honest. When he has no work, he feels a little uncomfortable with Wei Chi's wages. He often comes to the door to help with other things. Now that he has work, he is so energetic.

Woodblock printing is an early printing method in Chinese history. It has its own advantages and application conditions. Not everything is backward, and not all new inventions are progressive. Woodblock printing and movable type printing have different application conditions. However, Wei Chi intends to recruit craftsmen to experiment with movable type printing. If it can be put into pieces, it will be used together with woodblock printing to learn from the strengths and weaknesses, which is also an improvement in the times.

Wei Chi's decision to put the kangs on the upper and lower parts of the Wei Mansion obviously moved many people. After he ordered the matter and turned back to the backyard, the little loli Zhaodi looked at him and saw him with a sense of bones. The star-shining look was so lethal.

"Have you bought a lot of people's hearts?"

As soon as Wei Chi entered, Xie Jiu smiled and said this. He rolled his eyes. Wei Chi said hatefully, "Yes, why didn't you bribe you? It's better for the ancients, unlike some people, cut it."

Xie Jiu was furious and glanced at the guy charmingly, putting down the book in his hand. Wei Chi found that this sister usually seems to keep her books when she is free. Can she understand classical Chinese?

By counting with my fingers, the books my sister had read, from the Thousand Characters of Enlightenment to the Thousand Characters of Shuowen, seemed to have read many books through half a year, and some of them even read them three or four times.

"Madam, if you are bored, we can do something else, such as developing beauty and medicinal food, and you don't have to be so self-abuse when reading books. This classical Chinese seems to be quite tormenting, and I am still used to vernacular Chinese."

Xie Jiu smiled and said, "One of us needs to learn it, right? It's not good to be illiterate all the time. I was influenced by my mother and had some basic knowledge of ancient Chinese. I started to learn it again. I couldn't write articles, but I shouldn't have too many problems when I understand the meaning."

Wei Chi was speechless, hugging her and kissing her hard to express her mood. It was great. The couple had to live like this.

The kang in the Wei Mansion was well plated, and Wei Chi immediately took the craftsmen to the Duke of Yiguo's Mansion. His old adoptive father was also suffering from qi and blood. He was a person who was afraid of the cold in winter. If he had good things, he would not forget his adoptive father.

As soon as he put the kang on the Yiguo Duke's mansion, Cheng Zhijie, who heard the news from somewhere, came to the door. Before the person came in, he could hear loudly, "Wei Silang, you know how to respect your parents. I am also your uncle, don't you know how to respect you?"

Wei Chi shivered and said quickly: "Uncle Cheng, isn't you going to bring someone here? Don't worry, don't worry, Uncle Cheng, you are still stronger. My adoptive father is weak in qi and blood. He is afraid of the cold in winter. We must take care of those who are in poor health first, right?"

"You guy has a conscience, it's not in vain that I'm taking care of you like this."

Cheng Zhijie smiled happily, and his big hand like a palm fan patted Wei Chi's shoulder very hard, making him feel urge to throw him down. His hand was too strong.

I gave the Duke of Qin Laoguo, and basically everyone in Chang'an knew about it. I don't know why this Duke of the Duke of Chang'an had returned from hunting. As soon as Wei Chi "paid tribute" to him, he quickly took it out to show off.

Rocking chairs, most of the wealthy families in Chang'an City are equipped with one hand; older people basically have one foot massager, and now they have a kang, Mr. Qin, the first thing is to attract the old brothers who fought all over the world and show off. In the middle of winter, we are also warm.
