Chapter 172 Give You Half a Month
Chapter 172 Give You Half a Month
Having made up his mind, Leng Qingyu immediately wrote a letter home.
Just as I finished writing and went out, two more people appeared in the yard.
It’s Changsheng and Lu Changqing.
Ye Xinran was also surprised to see two people come in.
"Why are you two back together?"
Chang Qing was afraid that Leng Qingyu would chase him away, so he quickly said, "Changsheng said he wanted to go home, and I thought it would be inconvenient for him to go home such a long way, so I asked the driver to take him back!"
After hearing this, Changsheng looked disgusted and said, "When did I say I was coming back?"
It was clearly Lu Changqing who forced him into the car.
Seeing Changsheng's expression change, Lu Changqing quickly clasped his hands together and begged in a low voice: "Master Xiao, didn't you agree to help me once?"
Changsheng didn't have a very good impression of Lu Changqing.
If it weren't for his aunt's sake, he wouldn't want to ride in his car!
But one should be grateful for what one has received.
Since you are riding in someone else's car, you should not expose their past.
Changsheng simply ignored him and turned to talk to Ye Xinran.
Chang Qing was left alone facing Leng Qingyu.
He hesitated for a moment before whispering, "Mom!"
Leng Qingyu didn't take him with her when she left today. He thought his mother was angry with his father and didn't want him anymore.
Changqing's character has always been a little twisted.
He was cold, arrogant and lonely outside, and rude and unreasonable at home, and refused to let Lu Zhiyi take any advantage of him.
I dare not even fart in front of my own father.
In front of my biological mother, I always want to be recognized and loved.
Leng Qingyu loves this son very much.
But because of his poor health, Leng Qingyu never dared to let him do anything since he was a child, nor did she want him to do anything.
It is progress for other children who can run and jump.
Being able to climb a rockery can even earn you praise for your bravery.
But here, no matter what he did, Leng Qingyu would always tell him "No!"
Leng Qingyu didn't dare to have any expectations for him. His only hope was that he could live well.
Lu Changqing was a good student since childhood. He could play chess and draw, but he never received praise from his mother.
Leng Qingyu always says: No need to work so hard, as long as you are happy.
In Lu Changqing's opinion, since his mother had no expectations of him, it meant that she didn't need him.
Able to abandon yourself at any time.
"Mom, I came to see you. Are you feeling better now?"
He asked carefully.
As expected, Leng Qingyu asked: "Changqing, why are you here? Just stay at your aunt's house and have a good rest. You don't need to worry about your mother."
The smile on Lu Changqing's face froze instantly.
He thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I just came to tell you that Dad has left with Lu Zhiyi."
"Ok!"
Leng Qingyu nodded.
Lu Changqing continued, "Mother, I have already told my aunt that I want to stay with you, too."
"You're living with me too? How are you going to study then?"
Leng Qingyu asked.
"I gave the driver money and asked him to pick us up to the school every morning and take us back in the evening."
Lu Changqing said.
"It's still in time anyway. I can get up a little earlier in the morning and memorize the lessons on the way."
Seeing that he had already made all the arrangements, Leng Qingyu had no choice but to agree.
"We all live here. I hope we won't cause any trouble to your sister."
Leng Qingyu still felt a little guilty when facing Ye Xinran.
She wanted to help Ye Xinran do something, but found that Ye Xinran's house was in tidy order and the children had clear division of labor, so she didn't know where to start.
Ye Xinran noticed her discomfort, and would intentionally or unintentionally ask Leng Qingyu to help her while she was working.
Leng Qingyu gradually adapted to the situation and felt much more comfortable.
Changqing was not so lucky.
He originally planned to go to and from school with Changsheng, so that the two of them could be companions.
But Changsheng was so absorbed in his studies that he was determined to take part in the imperial examination next year. He often studied until midnight and could not bear the hassle of going back and forth.
Lu Changqing had no choice but to shamelessly come back alone.
Fortunately, Ye Xinran found something for him to do recently, which made Chang Qing feel much better.
What Ye Xinran asked him to do was to draw the blueprints.
“Today I saw that many families in the village had not yet threshed their rice.
I had wanted to make a thresher before, but I never had the time.
Now I finally have time, but I can't draw, can you help me draw it?" Ye Xinran asked.
Lu Changqing readily agreed.
Ye Xinran thought for a moment and began to describe, "The thresher I want has a round drum in the middle, and the blacksmith nails curved iron nails on the drum. There are axles and fan blades on the left and right sides, and leather belts connect the axles to the pedals under the feet."
"So complicated?"
Lu Changqing was a little confused after listening to this.
"Correct."
Ye Xinran recalled the appearance of the simplest thresher she had seen in a book before, and continued:
"Make sure to leave an air inlet on the left. When the rice passes through the air duct through the bucket valve, the full grains will fall directly into the grain outlet. The dry grains and debris will float out along the air duct."
"Sister, have you ever seen a thresher before?"
Lu Changqing really felt it was a bit abstract.
Therefore, it can be judged that Ye Xinran must have seen the real thing since he could describe it in such detail.
"Yes, I have seen it!"
Ye Xinran was a little embarrassed.
The farthest place the original owner had been to since she was a child was only the county town. She really couldn't make up a lie like she had seen such a place somewhere else.
"I think about how to make this thing every day, so I saw it in my dream."
After hearing the reason that he had seen it in his dream, Chang Qing did not refute it. Instead, he obediently drew the thresher bit by bit according to Ye Xinran's description and his own imagination.
Two days later, after many modifications by the two siblings, the thresher finally became what Ye Xinran had in mind.
"That's about it!" Ye Xinran was very happy. "You're amazing. You drew it as soon as I told you to!"
Lu Changqing felt embarrassed by the compliment and was just about to be modest when he heard Ye Xinran say:
I need to find someone to make this thing.”
"Sister, I know where the biggest blacksmith and carpenter shops are in the city. I'll go find someone to do it."
Chang Qing was very happy to be praised for his abilities, and he wanted to become even more powerful.
"You, do you have time?"
Ye Xinran knew that he still had to study during the day and his time was already very tight.
Chang Qing waved his hand nonchalantly, "As for time, we can find it if we squeeze it out.
I used to think that I could do nothing but study.
But now I feel that there are many things I can do, so sister, leave it to me, I know what you want. "
This was the first time Ye Xinran saw Lu Changqing so confident.
"Okay, then I'll give you half a month. See if you can make it within half a month."
