I went ashore by weaving straw shoes and became a master craftsman

Chapter 403 Farewell to Xie Ju

Cut Lele...

prick……

As the wood chips are peeled off from the wood, the patterns of the three layers of ghostly wooden balls begin to appear one by one.

Today is the No. 11 day of the National Examination.

"Huh." Wang Ge had to blow away the sawdust from time to time to be able to stare accurately, so that his eyesight and the following chiseling force could be perfectly coordinated.After staring for a long time, the slightest distance is enlarged in the sight.Not all patterns seek fineness, but also simplicity. What she wants to do is to return each pattern to its original nature and give them aura.

Due to time constraints, only the outer ball of the three-layer set of balls combines the three chiseling methods of penetrating, recessed, and protruding to display 29 kinds of wooden patterns.

The middle ball and the inner ball are only combined with the penetrating and concealed chiseling method.The middle ball shows nineteen kinds of wooden patterns; the inner ball shows nine kinds.

The types of wooden ware with patterns must of course include grass ware and bamboo ware.

57 patterns without repetition!
They include the most commonly used straw nets, straw sandals, straw mats, coffins, bamboo baskets, bamboo fans, wooden oranges, various agricultural tools, boats, and weapons... Her inspiration comes from Ge Shijiao's "Xici".

Knotted ropes are used to make nets, cut wood is used to make plows, kneaded wood is used to make Lei, cut wood is used to make boats, dry wood is used to make oars, heavy doors are used to beat tamarind, broken wood is used to make pestles, stringed wood is used to make arcs, and dried wood is used to make arrows...

The book records that the ancient sages viewed the universe and the galaxy, and then combined the benefits of mountains, rivers, water and soil, and made things according to local conditions to benefit the people.Aren't these records the same as what she heard from Meng's female official when she entered the emergency training camp... The weather is timeless, the earth is full of energy, the materials are beautiful, and the workmanship is ingenious so that they complement each other?

Guigong ball itself is like this. On small objects, it not only spreads the artisan's ingenious skills, but also states the pursuit of the craftsman's character and way of craftsmanship.

In terms of skills, Wang Ge has surpassed Wang Nanxing.

From the craftsman's point of view, what she pursues is great ingenuity, and what Wang Nanxing pursues is ingenuity. There is no right or wrong, only different paths.Wang Ge thought, maybe this is the reason why she always felt separated from Wang Nanxing in several dreams.

The 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, the No. [-] day of the national examination.

From the watchtower, Huan Zhen saw several horsemen and horses coming straight up. The first one was Xie Ju, wearing a rabbit fur felt hat and thick blue winter clothes with a white cloak.The hem of the cloak is embroidered with millet and black sparrow feathers. This embroidery prevents the slush from splashing on it from being dirty.

The stairs to the watchtower were icy, and Xie Ju had to rely on his servants to support him when he climbed up.He and Huan Zhen had never met each other before, and they bowed to each other when they came up, and Huan Zhen stood aside again, and the two of them just stood side by side.

It's about to annoy the booth official on duty here.Why do these dandies come to watchtowers if they don't go home for the New Year?Blocking him back and forth, I still dare not train him!

The next day, Xie Ji came again.

Another day...

The 29th of the twelfth lunar month.

Wang Ge handed in the examination items and left the venue one day early.The guards have been waiting in the examination room, the original guard Shen was transferred to the Tingting as the pavilion official, and now the 11 people are all the shooting soldiers selected by Master Ge.

The guest girl Gao Yue ran to the watchtower, Huan Zhen had seen it a long time ago, and when the other party delivered the letter, he ran down the stairs to the examination room.

Wang Ge quickened his pace, and the distance between the two was getting closer and closer. When she came out of the courtyard, Huan Zhen's smile was like charcoal fire in the snowy field, melting her innate sense of loneliness.

"Ah..."

"Sister Ge!" Xie Ju anxiously shouted and rushed in front of Huan Zhen, alas, the winter clothes are too thick, really, and the cloak wraps around his legs, making him look ugly at all, I knew I wouldn't wear it. "Sister Ge. How long have we not seen each other?"

Wang Ge went to Huan Zhen's side: "He is my fellow disciple."

"It's been three months." She laughed at Xie Ju's crooked felt hat.Three months ago, Ah Yung's classmates met with Xie Zhi and Bian Xun from Nanshan Elementary School to travel in the wild mountains, and stayed in Zhigan Jiangsi for two days.

This child is ten years old, and the friendship between her and him is no longer what it used to be, and even correspondence is no longer appropriate.The felt hat was given to Xie Ju by entrusting Anon last year. At that time, it was said that the hat was sewn by the aunt, but Xie Ju understood that it was actually sewn by Wang Ge.

"Ah Ju, he is Huan Zhen."

"I've met Brother Huan. My brother's name is Yi, and he mentioned Brother Huan. Sister Ge, I'm here to say goodbye, and I'm going to travel in the next year." He signaled the servant behind him to hold the lacquer box forward, and said earnestly: "Here is the paper I made from tree bark in my spare time. It takes time to make paper by myself. Compared with academics, I found that what scholars need most is actually paper with writing, which is books. Hehe, so I My ambition has changed, and I want to spread the articles my master taught me to more people wherever I go.”

Thanks to this farewell, I'm afraid it will be difficult to recognize when we meet again.

Wang Ge and Huan Zhen got on their horses and rode slowly on the road.

"How did you do in the exam?"

She breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay." Candidates at the master craftsman level dare not say that they are better than others, as long as they don't make mistakes and rework impetuously, the rest can only wait for the supervisor to judge.

"Wang Tian has returned to Shanyin. I have met him several times these days. He said that Liu Qing may be admitted to the pre-death camp. I guess Ah Tian will have to wait another year."

Wang Ge knew that Huan Zhen was looking for something to say, she smiled and encouraged him: "Tell me about you. I just want to hear about you."

Huan Zhen's heart welled up with fire, and his eyes sparkled brightly. "Age, I feel that I was born to live in the midst of fighting and sword light, no, it's snatching! Age, you can understand this feeling, right? In the barracks, strong is strong! Weak is weak! Anyone Means and rumors will be defeated by the strong. But you must be the strongest!"

Wang Ge: "I understand. We know we can do our best. If we slack off, we will let ourselves down the most."

"Yes! But sometimes people don't realize that they are slack. I was like this a few years ago. I thought I was hardworking enough, until I found a kudzu vine climbing up the rock. The high point she climbed at that time was actually something I hadn't usually seen before. It's in her eyes. I admire her for being so tenacious, focused, and neither humble nor overbearing. If I change with her..." Without such an assumption, he dared not speak nonsense.

Wang Ge could guess what he meant, and when she recalled the past, she sighed: "How many people are still like this, live every day counts."

"That's why I want to know how hard this world is. Only by stepping into hard work can I know how to get rid of hard work, and then help the world get rid of hard work."

The guards in the back exchanged glances from time to time, Mr. Huan came all the way to find the king's official, why didn't he express his affection, every sentence was like exchanging martial arts?But it's strange, the king's officials also have lively moments, and they are no longer overly calm like a little old woman.

At the fork outside Shanyin City, one leads to Luoyang in the northwest, and the other leads to Tuyi County.

The parallel horseshoe prints should be separated.

"Age, drive slowly on the road. From now on, we will watch together every year."

Wang Ge smiled and nodded: "I'll watch Lang Jun go."

Feeling warm in his heart, Huan Zhen shook his head, motioning for her to get on the horse and go first.

There is no wind or snow, at this moment he is happy to see her far away.He couldn't help reciting: "There are vines in the wild, with zero dew, and there is a beautiful person who is clear and graceful. When you meet each other, it suits my wish."

"There are vines in the wild, and there are zero dews..."

Step, step, step... step, step...

Bai Rong has a spirit, and as soon as he ran quickly, he felt Wang Ge's hesitation and turned his head, looking at the boy in black with a youthful appearance, strong emotions and innocence.

"There is a beautiful person who is as gentle as Qingyang, and it suits my wish." He still quoted the last sentence of the previous paragraph for the original last sentence "and Zi Xie Zang".

Wang Ge burst into a smile, she couldn't give him love at this age, not all because of Lin Xia, but also because of her own age.But she will definitely give Huan Zhen the most sincere affection and love!She waved goodbye to him again, then pulled the reins and ran on the way home.

The cold wind rises and runs through the two roads, like the shuttle of time.

　罟 (gǔ): The general term for fishing nets and animal traps.

　　斫 (zhuó): to chop wood and chop wood.

　　耜 (sì): An early digging tool.Lei (lěi) is the crank on the 耜.Usually "Leisi" is used together, and it has appeared in the previous article.

　　Watchman (tuò): Early night watch percussion instrument, made of wood or bamboo.

　　"Wild Grass" is one of the few poems in the Book of Songs that sings purely about love.The last sentence "meet each other, and live together with your son" was inappropriate for Wang Ge and Huan Zhen, so Huan Zhen replaced it with the end of the previous sentence.
