Moreover, the Outdated Man Solar shakily walked down the mountain with a bottle of wine in his mouth. Earlier than he even returned dwelling, somebody had already knowledgeable him that there have been company coming from the home. Ernie’s melodious voice could possibly be heard from afar.

“You lastly discovered the best particular person. That outdated bull of mine has a nasty mood, however he is actually good at wood work. It is simply that he is too outdated and too cussed, even a god cannot persuade him.”

There appeared to be another person who replied, however the voice was too gentle for the Outdated Man Solar to listen to, he heard from his household’s Sanniang, “How is our father as cussed as our father? I heard from my mother-in-law that even donkeys usually are not as tenacious as our father.

The Outdated Man Solar was livid, outsiders would at all times say that he was not prepared to move his expertise right down to his daughter, and now not labored as a craftsman as a result of he had misplaced all hope. Nevertheless, there was one more reason as to why he didn’t move on his expertise to his daughter, the eldest daughter was mild and virtuous, the second daughter was cute and obedient, the third daughter was eccentric and didn’t need both of them to inherit his expertise. Who can be prepared to do such a factor in a pile of stinking males?

His spouse was weak and sickly, it was unattainable for her to present him a son. Fascinated about it, these three ladies have been his solely hope. Helpless, he may solely return dwelling and assist his kids consider a manner out.

Nevertheless, he by no means anticipated that these individuals would communicate unwell of him behind his again.

Outdated Man Solar coughed twice as he entered the room. He instantly noticed Jiaoniang, who was among the many three golden flowers, not one bit inferior to his daughters.

Jiaoniang chatted with the three ladies within the courtyard for some time and gained some understanding of Outdated Man Solar. Earlier than coming right here, she felt that the outdated man should have been very bizarre, however after being along with his daughters for some time, Jiaoniang lastly understood what Outdated Man Solar was pondering.

Ah Yan’s elder sister was known as Ah Yao. Eighteen years outdated was thought of a giant lady on this period. She was born handsome and was sort and beneficiant. Even within the county, there have been good households that got here to suggest marriage. However this Outdated Man Solar simply did not need to do it. This outdated man was very cussed, he did not care if the one who married his daughter had cash or not, he simply needed to be together with her for a lifetime.

If regular individuals thought like this after they married their daughter, they might positively say that it was wishful pondering. Whether or not their daughter’s dowry was excessive or not would additionally decide their daughter’s standing of their household. What sort of uncommon dowry may Outdated Man Solar, a carpenter, produce?

When Outdated Man Solar’s culinary expertise have been unfold all through the complete countryside, it must be recalled a number of many years in the past. At the moment, when there was a prince stopping on the Qingyuan County to construct a mansion, the Outdated Man Solar was invited to create furnishings for the prince. Rumor has it that it might be troublesome for that prince to go to sleep all evening, however after the Outdated Man Solar made a big golden mattress out of Huang Li Mu, the King turned keen on it. Huang Li Mu and the Outdated Man Solar’s expertise and craftsmanship turned well-known for some time.

After that, the imperial courtroom was thrown into chaos and the prince’s mansion was not accomplished but. Nevertheless, when the prince left the Qingyuan County, he took away the mattress with him and the worth of this Huang Li Wooden rose sharply.

Even in the entire of Solar household ditch, there have been solely 300 of this type of tree. Lately, there have been solely a few hundred of them, and nobody was prepared to promote them out, so there was naturally no marketplace for them.

The dowry that the Outdated Man Solar had given to his daughter was that of Huang Li Wooden. A daughter like Huang Li Wooden could possibly be used to make good furnishings, handed down from era to era, and it was a household heirloom that even gold couldn’t examine to.

Fortuitously, the three ladies understood him, so they didn’t say something extra even when he was the one who had been trying to find good wooden within the Huang Li Wooden Forest all day. However, Outdated Man Solar didn’t care concerning the issues that had been unfold round exterior.

The second he noticed Jiaoniang, his brows slanted and he turned his eyes away, not her, “I do not make dowry furnishings anymore, I do not do the rest. Let’s return.”

Jiaoniang smiled and didn’t communicate. She had lengthy seen via all of the carpentry instruments within the small courtyard, in the event that they actually needed to scrub their fingers in gold, why would these consuming instruments nonetheless be so shiny?

“Father, Sister Jiaoniang will not be right here to make you a dowry field. Come and have a look at this large man. Sister Jiaoniang known as it a water wheel, he seems to be actually highly effective. “

Ah Yan handed over the water wheel blueprint that Jiaoniang introduced over. Outdated Man Solar hesitated for a second, however he nonetheless took it and checked out it for a very long time.

The water wheel mannequin that Jiaoniang drew regarded very simple and crude, and as well as, she was not an engineering main. Though she had studied the water wheel mannequin within the neighborhood earlier than, it might be too troublesome for her to attract it out similar to that. Helpless, Jiaoniang may solely write her ideas on the facet of the water wheel.

“I’ll use the affect of the water present to maneuver the wood leaves.”

“When the leaves flip, they’ll routinely raise the water and transport it to the fields.”

Outdated Man Solar felt like laughing when he noticed the reason, however he continued to learn via it, after which regarded on the easy map of the water wheel. He instantly considered one thing and considered one thing, “Who did you get this map from?”

Jiaoniang’s eyes lit up, it appeared that Outdated Man Solar was not easy, she had advised Huang Yi and the others on her water wheel diagram, that it was unattainable.

“The place did you get this?” Was it a carpenter’s concept? Nevertheless, his ideas have been too easy. If it was only a design to make use of the drive of the water present, it should not be sufficient. He ought to nonetheless be missing a wheel, or else he would want an particularly great amount of water to propel the leaves … “

Outdated Man Solar sat down in entrance of the corridor whereas speaking to himself, he frowned and thought, it appeared like Jiaoniang didn’t want to clarify.

Seeing her father like this, An Yan clearly bought used to it. She playfully shook her head, signalling Jiaoniang to not disturb her, and led Jiaoniang into the home.

The within of the home was very completely different from the surface. Jiaoniang initially thought that the buildings on this facet have been all fairly darkish, however he did not suppose that the within of the home have been product of yellow wooden. The decorations have been very heat, and the three rooms on the west facet have been the place the three ladies of the Solar household lived.

The three rooms have been all related, and have been solely separated by a chunk of carved wooden, with beaded curtains masking the room. The three rooms have been all related, and have been solely separated by a chunk of carved wooden. Jiaoniang was amazed.

If these artifacts have been to be unfold to the later generations, they might positively be priceless.

“If Sister Jiaoniang does not stroll tonight and sleep with me, I believe my father will certainly assist you to make this water wheel. Simply wait and see, as soon as my father is infatuated with this new sort of factor, he will not have the ability to pull even eight horses again. When my mom comes again, he will certainly be very comfortable.”

Once they noticed Jiaoniang’s water cart, all of them wished for nothing greater than to make the Outdated Man Solar use all his energy and produce this uncommon factor out, in order that they may see how they may snort at him.
