Chapter 1174 You can build a boat first! (two in one)(1/2)
On the edge of the Qingque Tribe's ditch, Bai Xuemei stood here with a bucket full of water beside her.
In front of her, there was another person standing, who was probably ready to get wet.
This person is none other than Han Cheng, the divine son of the Qingque tribe.
"Okay, let's start watering."
Han Cheng tightened his clothes and said to Bai Xuemei beside him.
Hearing Han Cheng's words, Bai Xuemei didn't hesitate. She directly reached into the barrel, took the water ladle floating on the barrel, scooped up a big ladle of water, and pointed it at Han Cheng's head.
Just poured it on...
This is of course not playing a game like the Ice Bucket Challenge, but testing the effectiveness of Bai Xuemei's new raincoat made from raincloth.
"Wow~"
The water was poured on Han Cheng's head, making some noise and splashing a little, and then flowed downwards.
Han Cheng, who was wearing a raincoat, could not help but twitch his cheeks.
This stupid daughter-in-law doesn’t know how to pour water slowly, how can she just pour a ladle of water on it...
"Water slowly, just like you normally water vegetables."
Han Cheng explained aloud.
"I, this is how I usually water vegetables?"
Bai Xuemei said with some confusion and confusion.
Han Cheng was speechless for a moment.
"Then you keep pouring it like this."
He sighed helplessly and said this.
When Bai Xuemei heard what he said, she once again scooped up a large ladle of water and poured it on Han Cheng again.
However, this time it was much gentler than the first one...
Amidst the roar of water, a bucket of water was quickly poured on Han Cheng's body.
"Another bucket!"
Han Cheng shouted rather boldly, sounding as powerful as the people who won the lottery after drinking iced black tea in later generations.
After hearing what Han Cheng said, another bucket of water was quickly brought over.
And quickly poured it on Han Cheng...
"Okay, let's stop for a moment."
Han Cheng smiled and stopped Bai Xuemei from preparing for another bucket.
After shaking off the water on his body, Han Cheng reached out and took off his raincoat.
There was basically nothing going on in front of his body, and he was still dry.
But the back of my body felt uncomfortable and I was almost wet.
Seeing such a scene, you can tell without even asking that the raincoat was not successful at all.
"Brother Cheng, I didn't make this raincoat..."
Bai Xuemei said looking remorseful.
Han Cheng smiled and stretched out his hand to rub the little daughter-in-law's head, and said with a smile: "It's not your fault. After all, it's your first time to make this kind of thing. It's normal to have some minor problems.
Moreover, this little problem can be easily solved."
Saying this, Han Cheng turned over his raincoat.
I brought the connection point between the hat and the raincoat to my eyes and looked at it.
This part is not a whole piece with the raincoat below, but is sewn on top with needle and thread.
Under such circumstances, no matter how good Bai Xuemei's needlework is, it is inevitable that there will be stitches left.
The water on Han Cheng's body flows from here.
"What, what's wrong with this? My eyes were all poked out with needles."
Bai Xuemei didn't realize what method Han Cheng said.
"It's easy to do, just put some tung oil on it, swish it here, let it dry and it's done.
In this way, all these can be blocked."
Han Cheng smiled and said the solution.
Bai Xuemei's eyes suddenly brightened up.
This is really a good idea!
In this way, this raincoat that cannot protect against rainwater can be reused without worrying about leakage.
"At the edge of the hat mouth, sew a circle of small hollow cylinders in the middle. Just fold the edge of the fabric half a centimeter inwards, and then sew a circle along the folded edge of the fabric, at the chin position.
, leaving a gap.
Thread the rope inside.
In this way, when it's time to put on the raincoat, you can tie the rope under the chin to fix the hood of the raincoat and prevent it from falling off.
Moreover, with this thing, the hood of the raincoat can adapt to many heads, and can be worn with the same size."
Han Cheng told Bai Xuemei this way.
Bai Xuemei nodded, indicating that she understood, and said: "I understand, this is similar to making the waistband of trousers. After it is sewn, the rope is threaded inside..."
The corners of Han Cheng's mouth twitched involuntarily: "It can also be understood this way."
"Oh, yes, there is one more thing I forgot to mention. In the future, the raincoat and umbrella raincloths must be distinguished from the cloth used on the sails. The sail cloths should be made of non-dyed cloth and soaked directly.
Tung oil will do, but the cloth used to make umbrellas and raincoats must be dyed cloth."
Han Cheng suddenly remembered something again and quickly explained it to Bai Xuemei.
Previously, Han Cheng only thought about making raincoats out of raincloth, and didn't think too much about the rest.
But now that it was done and put on, Han Cheng felt more and more awkward as he looked at it.
Before, he had not clearly realized where his awkward feeling came from. Now, he realized...
Although this kind of cloth soaked in tung oil is a little yellow compared to the previous one, it is only slightly yellow.
White is still its main color.
In addition, the style of this poncho makes it look like a mourning robe.
And it's the kind of filial piety.
Han Cheng is not superstitious, but in this situation, he still seems to feel extremely uncomfortable.
I feel extremely awkward.
So after realizing this, Han Chengcheng quickly handed it over to Bai Xuemei.
After a while, he forgot that the people in the tribe would make such ponchos again.
Bai Xuemei nodded again, indicating that she had written it down.
After explaining these things, Han Chengcheng took the raincoat and walked out with Bai Xuemei, found tung oil, and applied it to the joint between the hat and the raincoat.
Painted both inside and outside.
Those needle holes were quickly blocked with tung oil.
"Brother Cheng, how about I make a raincoat out of linen first, then soak it in tung oil and dry it?"
Standing here and watching Han Cheng hang the raincoat with tung oil on the joints on the rope to dry, Bai Xuemei blinked for a while and suddenly said this.
Hearing what Bai Xuemei said, Han Cheng couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
He felt that the method mentioned by the child bride might actually be a good one.
When Bai Xuemei was making a raincoat, he was watching the whole process. Pinning the raincoat with needles was troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it was not fast enough.
Bai Xuemei herself said that if she used ordinary linen, she would make clothes like a raincoat. In the same time, she could make almost two pieces.
If this idea can really come true, the efficiency of future production will be greatly improved.
Moreover, in this way, some of the cut scraps can be used again, saving some linen.
Because these linens are not brushed with tung oil, some tung oil can be saved.
"You can give it a try. If you don't try, no one knows whether it will work."
Han Cheng looked at Bai Xuemei and said with a smile.
Bai Xuemei nodded vigorously again, and quickly returned to the house, found a string dustpan, and found dyed linen to cut and make...
Han Cheng stood here and watched for a while, then left, then went to find the skilled craftsmen in the tribe and asked them to make umbrellas.
To be continued...
