Traveling through the starry sky just for you, I was a koi in ancient times

Chapter 430: Repair, Practice (1)

Wang Jinyi followed her mother's gaze, a smile spreading in her eyes.

"My mother went in and said there was something rare in the yard."

Regardless of the fact that she was still wearing her monk's robe, she warmly took her mother's arm and walked into the yard.

The tall wooden door creaked shut behind him. In the yard, a dozen craftsmen were busy working on a wooden gear transmission device that was more than one meter tall.

Some people were using bamboo ladders to hang gears on the beams, while others were connecting and fixing them.

Someone shouted, "Move half an inch to the left.

The whole yard looked like a steaming workshop, with all kinds of carpenter and blacksmith tools, processed gears of all sizes, wooden racks, connecting chains and various belts piled everywhere.

Although it was winter, beads of sweat were clearly visible on the busy foreheads of the craftsmen.

"Little miss."

A middle-aged man in a short grey cloth jacket squeezed out from among the craftsmen, stopped in front of Wang Jinyi, rubbed his hands on his jacket repeatedly, and moved his throat several times before squeezing out these words.

Wang Jinyi's obvious nervousness and awkwardness made her feel that the assembly was not going smoothly.

This hydraulic transmission equipment was started at the beginning of this year. I originally wanted to give it to my father as a birthday present, but it didn't work out.

I had another wild idea of ​​presenting it to my family during the Chinese New Year to add some joy to the New Year, but now it seems that my plan is going to be dashed again!

Wang Jinyi glanced at the belt-wound transmission device and asked calmly:

"Wang Deming, if you have something to say, feel free to speak up. These two are my parents, there's no need to be shy."

Wang Deming's awkwardness became more obvious, and he felt guilty.

"Miss, there's something wrong with the transmission. The pulley keeps slipping. We've re-adjusted it several times but can't find the problem..."

“Have the belt performance and tension been measured?”

Wang Jinyi walked towards the device. "Have you ever tried waxing leather belts? Tanned leather becomes soft when exposed to moisture, and the tension is naturally unstable..."

When he found that his mother had been ignored, he turned back and ran back happily, holding his mother.

"Mom, let's go and see the big toy Jin'er made."

The mother blinked with satisfaction, a mischievous smile hidden in her eyes:

"Mom is past the age of playing with toys, but if Jin'er likes it, I can still force her to do it. Do you want to go and take a look?"

The mother and daughter were joking around when their father, standing beside them, stepped forward and patted Wang Deming on the shoulder:

"Come on, tell me..."

Before he finished speaking, the man followed Wang Deming to rush towards the group of big guys.

The mother looked at her husband's hurried back and said with a smile:

"Every time he has a holiday, he rushes to see you. I think he likes these new things you make more.

Last year, when he first took office, you made some student stationery, including pencil sharpeners, squares, compasses, and protractors. He said you made them for him, but he gave them to his family in Xunyang. You wouldn't mind, would you?

The mother patted her daughter's hands and comforted her.

"He came to Luoxia County just to take care of you so that our family can spend more time together. Don't blame your father for not wanting a promotion!"

Wang Jinyi listened to her mother's comfort, her eyes were full of warmth, and she smiled knowingly and leaned on her mother's shoulder.

"Jin'er understands. Dad could have stayed in the Ministry of Rites, enjoying a peaceful and leisurely career. It was because of me that he came to the remote Luoxia County to serve as a small instructor. He did the hardest work. A ninth-rank official had little chance of achieving anything, and promotion was almost impossible...

This is all my daughter's fault. She was too quick to remind the Crown Prince..."

"Stop talking like that! You're not wrong, and neither is your father. It's natural for parents to care about their children. We're just worried... about your age..."

The mother glanced at the guard standing a few steps away and said no more. She just patted her daughter's hand with heartache.

The mother and daughter went together to watch the craftsmen debugging the equipment.

The sounds of carriages and horses in the empty mountains became clearer and clearer. The mother's hearing seemed to have become extremely good. When Wang Jinyi was still unaware, she pulled her daughter, who was looking at the drawings in deep thought, to the door.

At this time, the guards and servants had already opened the foot gate and looked out. They saw a group of fast horses and several carriages slowly becoming clearer from small black dots along the winding mountain road.

Then a small figure appeared on the carriage, waving his arms vigorously and seeming to be shouting. However, the sound only echoed from the mountains and it was impossible to hear what the child was shouting.

A green cloth carriage was being escorted by several fast horses, and was galloping along the winding mountain road. The curtains were blown up by the cold wind, and the carriage was crowded with people.

Before anyone could see clearly, the carriage had already stopped abruptly at the foot of the slope in front of the door.

The curtain of the car was suddenly lifted, and a little boy in a scholar's robe jumped out of the car in two or three steps. Without bothering to brush off the snow foam on his clothes, he turned around and ran towards the courtyard gate on the hill.

He stepped on the front of his robe several times, staggered and almost fell, but he just hurriedly grabbed the ground and rushed forward in a panic, with several strands of his hair scattered.

When he saw his mother standing in the crowd in front of the courtyard gate, he quickened his pace regardless of anything and threw himself into his mother's arms.

Wang Jinyi, who was holding her mother's arm, was almost knocked down by the collision, and her mother even staggered back a step. Yuqing stepped in in time to hold her mother steady.

Wang Jinyi reached out and stroked his brother's head, seeing the aggrieved look on his face.

My younger brother Wang Wenxin was born in the remote Qiannan area when his parents were guarding the ancestral forest. He grew up in a closed environment and only lived with his parents day and night. He was more dependent on his mother than other children. This was the longest time he had been away from his mother.

Thinking that it was all her fault that the mother and child were separated, she avoided looking away guiltily.

In a blink of an eye, I saw my brother Wang Wendong dismounting gracefully, waving to the people at the door, then turning around humbly and helping a stranger out of the carriage.

The younger brother's voice was still childish and full of grievance. He kept asking in a low voice in his mother's arms:

"Mother, I miss you! Don't you want me anymore?..."

The mother's mind was completely occupied by her youngest son's sadness at this time, and she had no time to even look at her eldest son.

His father came hurriedly from the door, and Wang Jinyi also saw clearly that the person who was getting closer and closer with his brother was actually the head of the Beining family!

Wang Jinyi saw this with suspicion in his heart, frowning, wondering if the long-lost person coming from afar had anything to do with him.

The mother tried her best to conceal her emotions. She wiped her eyes and looked at her daughter beside her, who looked slightly unhappy. She freed her hands to hold her, patted her daughter's back soothingly, and said:

"Wendong and his future father-in-law are here, why don't you show some hospitality? Show some hospitality..."

Wang Jinyi's mother's gentle voice was like thunder in her ears. What? My brother, just sixteen, already has a father-in-law? Seeing his father heading out the door, he calmed down and followed.

In addition to the mixed emotions of the family reunion in front of the gate, there were also people who nervously and calmly looked at the group of people who suddenly appeared. Ding Yi put one hand on his waist, and the others stood on both sides of the gate. Two people even walked behind Wang Jinyi and looked at the newcomers coldly.
