Chapter 148 Getting along
Xie Yuyan walked into the yard and heard a quarrel.
“It’s impossible to build it so high, otherwise it will explode if it’s not heated well.”
“So here, it needs to be made into a waist and drum shape. In my opinion, this is no problem. You can give it a try. ”
“Just say try it. If something happens, will you bear it? ”
"I missed it before, but now I don't dare to try it? How much molten iron can be smelted every day using a small furnace larger than a palm?"
"That's better than burning it halfway and exploding."< br>
"Come on, come on, tell me the truth. If you don't explain it clearly today, don't even think about walking out of this door."
The blacksmith's voice has become hoarse, obviously he has been arguing for a long time.
“Madam, our husband is over there.”
Sang Dian took Xie Yuyan into the small house next to it. It was originally a house where villagers stored straw and firewood. It had been repaired and temporarily used as a place for the Salt and Iron Company to handle official business.
The curtain opens.
Xie Yuyan immediately saw Wang Yan sitting inside.
On the small case in front of him, there were so many official documents piled up that his arms were restricted when writing, and there was only a small light-transmitting window next to it.
Looking a little aggrieved.
Xie Yuyan walked straight in, sat on the wooden table next to him, and reached out to the small clay stove to warm himself by the fire.
Sang Dian brought the hot tea and then exited. When he reached the door, he looked inside again. To be honest, he has never seen anyone so casual when getting along with Lang Jun.
Except of course He Langjun.
His husband and He Langjun grew up together, but they always have different feelings.
Xie Yuyan walked all the way. The soles of her shoes were stained with snow and were more or less soaked. She simply moved her feet forward to let the fire dry the soles.
Wang Yan raised his eyes and saw Xie Yuyan's relaxed eyebrows, as if she was more at ease than he was. If you have not seen high mountains, you will not be able to deal with them calmly at all times.
"Have you seen it clearly, sir?"
Qingyue's voice sounded, and Xie Yuyan raised her head to meet Wang Yan's gaze. He had been looking at her for a long time, but she never turned to face him. He looked at him and was secretly speculating on him.
“No.”
A faint voice responded.
Xie Yuyan frowned slightly.
What Wang Yan said was "never", which sounds like "never". It was as if they had known each other before.
Xie Yuyan was sure that the young and heroic Wang Yan in front of her was not the scheming Prime Minister she knew in her previous life. The eyes of the two people were completely different.
The Wang Yan in front of him lacked the calmness of an ancient well. In Wang Huai's words, Zaifu had already seen through everything at that time, and nothing could move him. Even if someone in the clan asked him to pave the way for his children and help the Wang clan further, he would not agree.
Inferred from this, it is unlikely that Wang Yan came from later generations like her. What he has experienced will always leave some traces, and she can tell it as long as he reveals something strange.
What's more, even if Wang Yan in the previous life was in front of him, it was impossible to recognize her. She only met him a few times, and there wasn't much words between them. Now that she had changed her identity, Wang Yan couldn't guess it anyway. to who she is.
So... where did Wang Yan's thoughtful gaze and probing words come from? Xie Yuyan couldn't understand.
She won’t ask either.
Because this is an unsolvable situation in itself. She will not tell her origins, so she cannot ask the truth.
Unless, between the two of them, one person will see the whole picture first.
"Then please take your time and watch," Xie Yuyan said, "but... don't watch for too long, lest you be criticized for being disrespectful."
She was reminding him that as a member of the Wang family, how Can you stare at a widow like this?
Wang Yan said calmly: "If the lady cares about these things, she will not enter the house alone."
She is not an ordinary woman, but it is impossible to use these to restrain him. .
As if thinking of something, her lips raised slightly, just as she was thinking about Wang Yan. Her past experiences also left many indelible traces on her body.
Xie Yuyan nodded: "Your Excellency, you are right, but here, it has always been...I can do it, others can't."
The corners of Wang Yan's straight mouth also curved slightly. , eyes clear: "I remember that when my wife came, she also borrowed He Tan and me for protection."
If you have something, you don't have to show weakness like that.
Wang Yan stood up, walked around the table and walked towards Xie Yuyan.
The tall figure gradually came toward her, but she remained motionless.
He knelt down and stretched out his hand.
The slender fingers were very close to her, as if they would hold her feet in the next moment.
She still didn't move.
He finally moved the clay oven on the ground.
"If you bake it for too long, you will get burned before you know it."
His hand loosened, and her feet naturally retracted to the bottom of her skirt.
No one was surprised, no one flinched.
All the same calm and calm.
The eyes met each other, and there was a light in each other's eyes that others could not understand. Falling into each other's eyes, the brightness is so bright that it becomes even more bottomless.
She seemed certain that he would never reach out rashly.
He also knew that she would never cower.
We understand each other inexplicably, and as long as we don't reveal it, the other party will never guess the reason.
"Let's go ask your lord, who drew that pattern? Can the iron-making furnace be built three feet high?"
The two craftsmen finally quarreled in front of Wang Yan's door.
Sang Dian stopped the two of them outside the door.
"My lord..."
The two of them were obviously eager to get a response.
Wang Yan said without hesitation: "I drew the pattern."
At this point, Wang Yan looked at Xie Yuyan: "It's only three feet."
Three feet is what she said.
Wang Yan said: "It never happened before, but it will happen in the future."
His expression seemed to be asking her, but also seemed to repeat the result with determination.
"You just need to deduce, and someone will come to help in a few days."
After hearing this, the two craftsmen had no choice but to stop and agree.
The craftsmen left, and Wang Yan looked at Xie Yuyan: "With the blast furnace, we can make more armor and weapons. This is a great achievement. The government office should ask for credit for my wife."
Xie Yuyan said calmly: "I am not good enough. It would be a pity for a merchant to get the credit."
Wang Yan said: "What do you think the lady should do?"
Xie Yuyan looked at the official document on Wang Yan's desk: "There is still one step left." br>
Wang Yan listened to what she said.
Xie Yuyan continued: "It is better to have peace in the world than to mend the situation. If nothing happens, we will not go to war to repair it, and some people will not be held accountable."
"Since we have such a good knife, why not kill more people Personally? "
If someone gives her a good knife, she will definitely look for more necks to chop.
Wang Yan came to ask her, and this was her answer.
Wang Yan walked back to the desk, put the letter from home into an envelope, and handed it to Sang Dian at the door: "Send it home and say it was my intention."
Sang Dian looked into the room. In the past, he was unwilling to enter the husband's study. The husband was always scary when he did things. Now... with Mrs. Xie, it is even more scary.
