Chapter 315 Madam, this is absolutely not possible.
"Ma'am, I will never join in the fun again!"
The frightened San Ya said with lingering fear while doing her work.
She thought it was boring to watch the lanterns upstairs and wanted to join in the fun downstairs. Fortunately, Sister Daya warned her to serve the lady well and not to play around.
From then on, she never wanted to join in the fun again. It was too scary! I heard that many people were trampled to death, and several were seriously injured. It was not worth it to lose your life just to see a few lanterns.
Looking at Lin Xiaomi, who was as steady as a rock, she admired him. Her wife was always so calm no matter what.
That day, she was the one who reminded everyone to call for help and find a doctor.
Lin Xiaomi was lost in thought and didn't think about the Lantern Festival. It was already in the past and there was nothing to dwell on. She was thinking about Xiao Ran's birthday gift.
She wanted to give him a hot air balloon so that he could experience what it was like to fly, but the technology in ancient times was really limited. In any case, she wanted to give it a try.
For several days, she racked her brains to think about the scientific principles she learned in school...
"Magpie, go find me two masters who know how to use iron."
"Yes."
"Madam, what do you want to do this time?" San Ya was very curious. The things that Madam made were things she had never seen or thought of before. They were very rare.
"This is the birthday gift for the prince. You all should keep your mouths shut and not reveal a single word."
"I understand. Madam wants to give the prince a surprise." Daya said with a smile.
San Ya also covered her mouth and laughed.
Lin Xiaomi: ...
So, she was being teased by her own maid.
She kept writing and drawing on the rice paper. This was no ordinary thing and had to be done carefully. If there was any problem, her life would be in danger.
"San Ya, go find some thick hemp ropes. Remember, they must be very good. Daya, go find a carpenter."
Since she started making jigsaw puzzles, she has employed several carpenters in her yard. Now, she has to draw a few pictures from time to time for the carpenters to make.
"Master, do you think it's possible to make a hanging basket like this?"
The carpenter took a look at the blueprint and said, "Yes, Madam. How big should it be?"
"4 and a half feet long, feet wide, feet high."
The carpenter took the order and went down. He felt that this hanging basket would be easier to solve than a puzzle.
The iron sheet is the skeleton of the hot air balloon and plays a supporting role.
"Master, look, can a piece of iron with this kind of arc be made?"
The blacksmith looked at the blueprint in his hand carefully. "It's difficult to make what the Crown Prince's wife wants. It's not easy to make such a thin piece of iron."
She knew it, but if it was too thick, the whole hot air balloon would be too heavy and difficult to fly.
"If Madam is not anxious, I will go back and give it a try?"
"Then it's Master Lao."
Three blacksmiths tested it at the same time, she didn't believe that none of them could make it. Just make it thinner, heat it up and hammer it more, and it will become thinner, right? !
"Xiaomi, what have you been busy with recently?" Sun heard from her subordinates that the craftsmen in the prince's small courtyard have been working overtime recently. There are also a few blacksmiths outside who are doing something unknown. What are they doing with such a big show?
"Mother, my daughter-in-law is preparing a birthday gift for the prince."
The daughter-in-law really cares about her son as she went to such great lengths to prepare a gift.
"Is the gift big?"
"Yeah." It can seat two people, so it must not be small.
"Ran'er must be very happy to know that you value him so much."
"I want to give him a surprise, I hope you can keep it a secret for me."
"Okay! Okay! Okay! I won't tell you. You've been busy lately, so skip the morning greetings. Just come once with Ran'er in the evening."
"Thank you, Mom!" Lin Xiaomi was not being polite. She was really annoyed by the morning and evening visits. Who invented this idea because they had nothing better to do?
Sun looked at her and smiled from ear to ear. The young couple seemed to be as sweet as honey. Her eldest grandson must be not far away!
"Xi Que, go and call the two heads of the manor in Fucheng."
After the New Year, it would be spring planting time, and she had to make arrangements first. Raising fish in rice fields was a big deal. As long as it could be accomplished, it would be an achievement and glory for the Xiao family; for the people, it would be a happy event as grain income and rice production would increase.
It benefits the country, the people and the family, and must be done well.
"Madam, how can we raise fish in this rice field?"
"Yes, ma'am, this is absolutely impossible, right?"
