Chapter 105 Entering the City
Lu Yao and Rong Yanhui did not sleep in separate rooms with their two children for the time being, but they prepared two small beds for them.
According to the children's preferences, the two small beds were covered with sheets and quilts of different patterns. The two children were very excited.
After taking a bath, I jumped directly into my own little bed, feeling very happy.
After finally coaxing the two little ones to sleep, Lu Yao and Rong Yan returned to bed to rest.
Finally, the two little guys didn't separate him from Yaomei. Rong Yanhui didn't let the curve of his mouth drop throughout the whole night.
Lu Yao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why are you jealous of a child?"
Rong Yanhui hugged the man in his arms, "That kid did it on purpose."
He is almost seven years old, but he still acts like he is not weaned.
Lu Yao always watched the "confrontation" between the father and son with amusement. It was their unique way of communicating their feelings.
Don’t think that men often “dislike” children and children secretly “oppose” him. In fact, their relationship is very good.
After laughing at the men's childish behavior, I talked about what I had discussed with them today.
"I want to go into the food business with them. Do you agree?" Although she knew that the man would unconditionally support her decision, she still had to appease the man's feeling of being ignored.
Rong Yanhui shook his head. "Just do whatever you want. I'm at home. But cooking is going to be hard, and I don't want you to be so tired."
If it were in the past, Yaomei would have been more relaxed with him helping her, but now he has to study and cannot help her share the burden.
Lu Yao chuckled.
Sure enough, the man's answer did not disappoint her.
She soothed him, "I'm just wasting some physical energy. Besides, there are so many people working with me, so I'm not tired at all. But studying requires your brain power, and there's no one to help you. It's harder than us."
She squeezed the man's hand and said, "We are all working hard for this family, but we are just doing different things."
Rong Yan nodded and promised, "I will definitely not let you down."
Yaomei is so outstanding, if I don’t work harder, I really won’t be worthy of her.
And scientific research is the only honor he can give to the other party.
He must succeed.
"Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You're the pillar of our family. We can't do anything without you." Lu Yao seemed to see what the man was thinking, and then added, "We are one as husband and wife. We share honor and disgrace, and we are inseparable."
Rong Yanhui held her hand tightly, his tenderness almost tangible: "Sister Yao, how can I be worthy of this..."
"Stop," Lu Yao interrupted him. "I know everything. We agreed not to say such polite words."
Rong Yanhui shook his head, "I'm not being polite."
These are his heartfelt words.
but,
Since Yaomei doesn't want to listen, he won't say it, but he will keep this feeling in his heart and will never let her down in this life.
Thinking of this, he rubbed Lu Yao's head and said, "You take a rest first. I'll go to the next room and read a book."
His wife is so outstanding, he has to work harder.
"It's late. Let's get up early tomorrow and take a look." Lu Yao held the other person's hand. "I have something to discuss with you."
Hearing Lu Yao say it again, Rong Yanhui immediately sat back in his original seat, waiting seriously for the other party to speak.
"Don't be so serious," Lu Yao was amused by his expression. "Didn't you go and see the fields allocated to our family this afternoon? The paddy fields are located quite high, and the lake is a bit far. We need to find a way to divert water."
Rong Yanhui's expression became serious. Diverting water is a big problem.
"Today I asked my second uncle and others, and they said there is no effective way to divert water here. The only way is to carry it on shoulders." As for using other paddy fields to scoop water up, unless the relationship is very good, there will be disputes. Not only that, but you have to pay money. Therefore, the people who actually do this, except for the indigenous people of the village and the people who were exiled here, rarely do so.
"Sister Yao, do you have any ideas?" Rong Yanhui heard her say this and guessed that she had something in mind, so he asked first.
Lu Yao didn't hide it, "Actually, the easiest way is to use a machine to pump water."
"no!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Rong Yan replied, "That's too risky."
Although he didn't know what the machine Yaomei was talking about was, it was definitely not something from this world. It was too dangerous, and he would never allow Yaomei to take this risk.
Lu Yao patted his hand comfortingly, "I know."
She explained the water pump to the other party in detail, and in order to let the other party have a specific understanding, she also took out the water pump and the water pump to show the other party.
"Actually, a small electric water pump makes very little noise," Lu Yao said tentatively, "We can do it at night."
"Don't even think about it!" Rong Yanhui was rarely assertive and sternly and firmly rejected her proposal.
Lu Yao was not frightened by the other party's attitude. Instead, she couldn't help laughing. She knew that this man would not let her down.
"Okay, since you don't agree, then there's no need," Lu Yao said, as if he was listening to a man. "Whatever my husband says is what it is."
"You're naughty," Rong Yan replied, pinching her cheek. "Do you have any other ideas, madam?"
Lu Yao didn't keep the secret and said directly, "Waterwheel."
"Waterwheel?" Rong Yan thought for a moment, "But a wheel that can transport water?"
Lu Yao blinked her eyes. Her man was indeed extraordinary. He was much more reliable than her aunt-in-law and the others had guessed.
She thought for a moment and took out a waterwheel model from the space. This was a souvenir she bought when she and her parents went to the ancient town for a trip. She placed it in the display cabinet. Before the end of the world, she put all the things in her house into the space.
Unfortunately, she couldn't take away the house that was filled with the atmosphere of her and her family's life.
Rong Yanhui looked at the waterwheel model curiously, "Can this transport water from a low place to a high place?"
It's really amazing.
Lu Yao nodded. She thought for a moment and retrieved the photos she had taken at the time, as well as the videos she had recorded. These were all solaces in her long apocalyptic life.
Now, the man already knows about his other experience (although he went to that world in a dream), he is trustworthy, and there is nothing wrong with showing these things to him.
The impact of the photos and videos was so great that Rong Yan couldn't recover for a long time. He was shocked that there were such magical things in the world.
Yes, things made by immortals cannot be ordinary things.
He is ignorant and is making a fuss out of nothing.
"With these, we can definitely do it," he said.
Lu Yao nodded. "When you're not studying, let's do some research together," she said. "Scientific research requires not only talent but also fame. What do you think?"
The waterwheel, also known as the Kongming cart, is a huge product produced by the working people's long-term labor. It has played an important role in irrigation throughout the long history.
Data shows that water wheels have a history of more than 1,700 years, which shows the wisdom of the ancients.
Rong Yan understood Yao Mei's intention in making such an arrangement, and was touched, but still hesitated: "This is you..."
"Stop," Lu Yao interrupted him directly, "I know what you want to say, but don't make me say some things again."
When Rong Yanhui saw that his sister Yao was really angry, he quickly shut up and said that he would not be polite to her anymore.
Seeing that he truly realized his mistake, Lu Yao nodded in satisfaction.
"Here are the materials related to the waterwheel," Lu Yao showed an introduction and a detailed explanation of the model. "We need you all to work together to develop the final product."
The introduction was in simplified Chinese. Lu Yao repeated it one by one and also explained all the knowledge that might be used in the waterwheel. She made sure that the man had memorized it before she felt relieved.
In addition to physics, the relevant knowledge required for water wheels also includes knowledge in related fields such as mathematics.
On the way to exile, when the two were chatting in the carriage, Lu Yao would share some of what she had learned with Rong Yanhui. The latter was very interested and picked up the knowledge very quickly. As long as she said something, he could quickly apply it to other situations.
Lu Yao once felt regretful. If the Rong family had not been in trouble and her mother was still alive, cultivating her since childhood, this person would have soared to fame and made a name for himself in the court.
Unfortunately, all possibilities were ruined by the Shen family's greed, shamelessness and conspiracy.
Lu Yao came back to her senses and replied to Rong Yan, "From now on, you guys will have to figure out the waterwheel. If there's anything you don't understand, we can discuss it in the evening."
Rong Yan nodded. Yaomei and the others would be busy with the catering business later. The other party had already brought them to this point, so they naturally couldn't rely on the other party for the rest.
but,
Yaomei’s contribution cannot be buried.
Lu Yao doesn't care about this reputation.
This era is too harsh on women. She wanted to enhance the reputation of several men who were taking the imperial examinations. If some sour scholars knew that an ignorant woman like her was involved, they would definitely be prejudiced against the men, which was something she didn't want to see.
So, she warned the man not to do anything else. Some things only need to be known to themselves. As long as they get what they want, it doesn't matter to outsiders.
After they finished talking, it was already late. Lu Yao yawned. Rong Yan got out of bed, blew out the candle, and returned to bed, wanting to hug his wife and fall asleep.
Lu Yao waved the other person's arm away, saying it was too hot.
Rong Yanhui immediately took out a palm-leaf fan and said, "I'll fan my wife."
"Precious."
Lu Yao snorted, with the corners of her mouth raised high, but she did not stop the other party from being attentive.
As a man, you always have to make him feel important, so that he will be more motivated and responsible.
Have a good night's sleep.
After breakfast the next day, Lu Yao, Ye Jiayue, Lan Xin and Rong Ziyu followed Rong Bingwu and Mo Zhu into the city.
Rong Bingwu left the carriage to a few women, and sat on the front shaft with Mo Zhu.
As far as Rong Ziyu could remember, this was her first time riding in a carriage. As soon as the carriage started, she curiously lifted the curtain to look outside. When she met the jealous gaze of the people on the roadside, she suddenly retracted her gaze and lowered the curtain.
"What's wrong?" Ye Jiayue asked with concern.
Rong Ziyu shook his head to indicate that he was fine, but he knew in his heart that their family would probably become increasingly distant from these people.
However, she didn't care.
Mother was right. Character definitely determines destiny. The Rong family trusted the wrong person and was harmed by the villain, which led to everything they have today. From now on, she must keep her eyes open.
The carriage slowly drove away from Fushan Village, and only after leaving the village did it slowly speed up.
After entering the city, Rong Bingwu took Mozhu and deposited the horse and carriage behind an inn. He then told the female relatives to be careful and agreed on a meeting place before leaving with some concern.
As the only male, Mo Zhu was responsible for protecting the female members of the family. He tried to reduce his presence as much as possible and followed behind them.
Among the four women, even though three of them have been married for many years and have grown-up children, the temperament they exude from within is incompatible with the people around them.
They have dignified manners, elegant conversation, and are young and beautiful, which unconsciously attracts the attention of many people.
A few people were not affected by these sights. They looked and shopped, and when they saw something suitable, they did not forget to buy some to take home.
The county seat of Xikang County consists of four streets in the east, south, west and north. Due to the limited area of the entire urban area, even if they walked through all four streets from beginning to end, they would have finished walking through them all by noon.
When we arrived at the restaurant where we had made an appointment with Rong Bingwu, he had just arrived.
Seeing that they had arrived, Rong Bingwu breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze then fell on Mo Zhu, who had been acting as a backdrop behind them. Seeing him carrying several large and small bags, he couldn't help but smile: "How much stuff did you buy?"
This is how women go shopping. He would find it strange if they came empty-handed.
