"This is good, this is good. This table can seat a lot of people." Qiu Lizheng kept praising.
Qiu Yinong added, "Wait a few days until the orbital round table comes out. You will find it more suitable and convenient, Fourth Uncle."
"Oh? What is that?" Qiu Lizheng was indeed curious.
Qiu Yinong chuckled, "Fourth Uncle will know then!"
"By the way, Fourth Uncle, we got some bricks not long ago and built a small cave."
"We'll be preparing for calcination in a few days. Then you can ask any uncles or brothers in Murakami who are interested and ask them to come and learn."
"I'll leave the brick factory to you. The temperature required for the porcelain kiln is extremely high, and the procedures are extremely complicated, so we need to plan carefully."
"Okay, we'll do whatever you say." Qiu Lizheng said happily.
Qiu Yinong smiled happily: "Then I'll just do it. There are so many things I can do."
"In the future, our Taohua Village's peach blossom wine, soy sauce, bacon, snacks, cloth, and porcelain will surely flow throughout the country, to foreign countries, and become the number one village in Da Chu."
"Cheers to our future number one village in Da Chu!"
"Hahaha, I like to hear it. Come, let's toast to our Xiaoliu and Taohua Village!" Qiu Lizheng raised his glass happily.
The wine in the cup was still peach blossom wine, and it was the first time for the Qiu Shoufu brothers to drink it.
I smelled the fragrance of peach blossoms, took a sip, and my eyes lit up instantly.
"It tastes delicious. No wonder Dad always likes to come here. It turns out your house has so many things." Qiu Shoufu put down the cup and hit Qiu Hansheng on the shoulder.
The two of them must have a very good relationship. Qiu Hansheng poured him another glass of wine and said, "It's my fault for not inviting you home for a drink earlier."
"Hahaha, leave that brat alone."
Qiu Lizheng also laughed, and Qiu Yinong asked Zhang Guizhu and Xia Lian to eat more vegetables.
The two responded with a smile and picked up a lot of dishes for her.
"Our Xiaoliu is so handsome. I don't know which boy will marry him in the future." Zhang Guizhu looked at Qiu Yinong lovingly.
I was far away last time and didn’t see it clearly.
This Xiaoliu looks really like my aunt when she was young, that is, Qiu Yinong’s biological grandmother.
"Our little six is only fourteen, don't talk nonsense, how long has this child just come back, and you want to marry her off to me?"
Qiu Lizheng suddenly became anxious.
Zhang Guizhu was at a loss for words: "I was just expressing my feelings, but you got so angry with me, you old man."
"Girls, you're going to get married in the future, right?"
After hearing what the old woman said, Qiu Lizheng suddenly felt that the wine was no longer fragrant.
Qiu Yinong put down her chopsticks, looked at Zhang Guizhu with a smile, and said, "Fourth Aunt, your niece doesn't quite agree with what you said."
"Why do women marry?"
"It's about having someone to rely on, having children, and continuing the bloodline."
Zhang Guizhu replied truthfully.
"Well, what Auntie said is not wrong. This world is too harsh on women, with all kinds of rules and regulations for women."
"You also said that getting married is to find someone to rely on."
"If I am my own support, then it doesn't matter whether I get married or not."
"It's not that I don't want to get married. If I can't find a husband who respects and loves me, I think being alone is fine."
"You don't have to serve a man, let alone that family."
"How comfortable it is, why have a child?"
"It's fine if she gave birth to a good child, but if she gave birth to a rebellious child, I would be so angry that I would die."
"Xiao Liu, why do you have such an idea?" Zhang Guizhu was shocked.
After all, she was taught since childhood to be a good wife and mother, to serve her parents-in-law, and to carry on the family line.
How could she not be shocked when she suddenly heard such a voice?
"Aunt, please watch me. I want to let the men and women of Da Chu take good care of me. My daughter can also hold up the sky."
"In the future, women will be able to attend school, serve in the imperial court, and have a place in the court."
"!!!" Everyone was shocked by Qiu Yinong's heroic spirit.
"But this won't be accomplished overnight. If I can't complete it, my descendants and even more of me will be there to complete it."
"Our Xiaoliu is indeed an extraordinary woman. Fourth Uncle thinks you are right!"
"However, Xiaoliu, you also said that the world is different now. It's fine to talk about it in our village, but you can't tell anyone else about it in the future."
Qiu Lizheng was afraid that she would bring trouble upon herself, so he quickly gave her a warning.
"Don't worry, Fourth Uncle, I will work hard towards this goal."
"By the way, Fourth Uncle, in addition to these industrial workshops, I also want you to ask if there is anyone in the village who is willing to learn leg and foot skills."
"As our village gets better and better in the future, there will definitely be people who are jealous and want to attack us."
"If we have our own self-defense force, it is also necessary to patrol on schedule and protect the safety of the workshop."
"Yes, Xiaoliu is right. I will ask about it tomorrow."
"And when the village is back on track, I will pay for the construction of a school so that all the boys and girls in our village can learn calligraphy and study in the school."
Qiu Yinong said again.
Qiu Lizheng was pleasantly surprised: "Can everyone really study?"
"Um."
"I'm afraid there is no teacher willing to teach a girl." Qiu Lizheng was in trouble again.
Qiu Yinong smiled: "Not all teachers are pedantic. At worst, the elders in our village are also literate, and you are also a scholar."
"Teaching some Three Character Classics and the Hundred Family Surnames shouldn't be a problem, right?"
"I just want the girl to learn to write so she can work for me in the future. If that doesn't work out, I can teach her myself."
"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Qiu Lizheng slammed the table and agreed with Qiu Yinong's idea.
Zhang Guizhu held Xia Lian's hand, and Xia Lian looked at Qiu Yinong with sparkling eyes.
She likes this little cousin.
"This girl is truly extraordinary. With her ideas and bearing, I'm afraid it's just as she said. An ordinary boy is really not worthy of her."
Zhang Guizhu muttered to himself.
Qiu Lizheng laughed heartily: "It's better not to be worthy of her. Our Xiaoliu is the best girl, and no one else is worthy of her."
"Xiaoliu is still young, there's no rush to get married."
"You old woman, you're always worrying about nothing. Even so many delicious foods can't stop you from eating."
Qiu Lizheng put a few pieces of food into her bowl with his chopsticks.
"Okay, okay, I'll eat it. You old man, just want to teach me a lesson." Zhang Guizhu also felt that he was overthinking and couldn't help but scold Qiu Lizheng with a smile.
She happily ate the braised large intestine that Qiu Lizheng picked for her.
After seeing off Qiu Lizheng and his family, Qiu Hansheng prepared hot water for Qiu Yinong to take a bath.
She thanked him sweetly, grabbed a change of clothes, and went to take a comfortable bath.
After taking a shower and lying on the bed, she imagined the future and fell asleep with a smile on her face.
The next day after breakfast, firecrackers were set off, celebrating the impending start of construction.
Qiu Yinong finished the bun in her hand and drank the last mouthful of porridge before going out. When she arrived at the guesthouse, all the villagers had arrived.
Qiu Lizheng had just finished telling Qiu Yinong about his plan to have some teenagers and young adults follow Qiu Hanqing to learn martial arts and train their bodies so they can defend the village in the future.
