There was a jade mountain of a brush on the table. It looked pretty good, but it was already covered with dust. The white mountain of a pen was covered with dust, making it very eye-catching. Fang Weicheng carefully wiped off the blood on the mountain and remembered that he had a dream of becoming a scholar in the past.

The world had changed, but he still hadn't become what he had imagined. When he wiped the brush with the brush, he deeply felt this point, and now he couldn't even afford to buy a piece of white paper.

Then he looked around the desk but couldn't find anything. In the end, he even stood up and looked around the room. Finally, he found the brush holder that was covered in dust in a corner not far from the desk.

"Very good, isn't it?" Fang Ru Xiu asked Fang Weicheng.

Fang Weicheng nodded his head and took a brush, he looked at the white paper and said: "Can I use a piece of white paper to write a few words?"

"Of course." Fang Ruxiu nodded without hesitation. Her grandfather was simply too adorable. She wanted to write a few words to satisfy herself, but she was afraid of wasting some paper. She could only blame the family for being too poor.

After getting permission from Fang Ru to embroider, Fang Weicheng then found a piece of hard paper to place under a piece of white paper. Only then did he take out a medium size brush, which was completely stained with ink.

"Wow, grandpa's calligraphy is really good. You can call it calligraphy master." Fang Ru Xiu watched from the side and spoke in praise as if she was a dog.

"Hur hur, right? My calligraphy is good, right?" Fang Weicheng glanced at Fang Ruyi, and stroked his chin with a bit of satisfaction.

But because Fang Weicheng had been in the countryside for a long time, and because he needed to work when he was busy farming, his beard was not very long. It was just like an ordinary country bumpkin with a beard that was only a few inches long. It hung down from his chin and was a bit messy, and he did not look like he was reading a book at all. This made Fang Ruzhu feel that it was funny, but she endured her smile and solemnly nodded her head.

"Then, grandpa, please continue practicing your calligraphy. I'll be going to do my embroidery work." As Fang Ruzhu spoke, she went back to the side of the stove and picked up her embroidery rack.

During the time that Fang Weicheng was tidying up the desk, Fang Ruyan had already finished making a small doll. She wrapped the white cloth around the wooden bead, and then used a string to sew it inside so that it wouldn't fall off.

In that case, this bead was the doll's dress, and the white cloth was the doll's skirt. At this moment, Fang Ruzhu was holding a small embroidery rack and putting it on the doll's skirt, preparing to embroider it. This was her first work, so she was especially meticulous when doing it.

Although Fang Ru Xiu was unable to embroider, she had inherited the original owner's skills. In just a moment, she had weaved a few simple leaves with silk threads on top of the doll's skirt. The doll's skirt was also made of silk, making it look extremely beautiful, and even Yu's liked it very much.

"Ru Xiu, your hand is truly too much of a coincidence. This child's work is so beautiful that there's an indescribable charm to it." The Yeats praised.

"Is that so? Even Grandmother, do you like it a lot? " Fang Ru Xiu asked in surprise.

"Of course." Yu's said. "Let's not talk about other things, just the material of this silk cloth and the flowers embroidered on it are enough to amaze us."

"Amazing?" Fang Ruxiu said in disbelief, "Grandmother, you actually say it's breathtaking?"

"What's going on? My old woman can't say those elegant words. Our family's old man is a scholar after all. When I was serving as a servant for the large family dozens of years ago, I have seen all of these things."

Yu's rebuked him: "Although I have seen a lot, I have never seen the novelty in your hands. To hang this in front of a window, or to put it on your waist, I think it must have some sort of flavor."

After hearing Yu's's words, Fang Ruxiu nodded her head with all her might. She didn't have that intention just now, she only felt that the Yu's's reaction towards the child in her hands was a little exaggerated. At this moment, Yu's was thinking the same thing as she was, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of familiarity. Un, the wisdom of the ancient people really shouldn't be underestimated.

"Milk, I will make two legs for this little person and a hoop that can be hung on the hoop. Tell me, if you sell it in the county, would it have good business?" Fang Ru Xiu continued to ask.

"Em, I don't know about that. In any case, this thing cannot be eaten or drunk. Em, I won't buy it." This time, Yu's looked at the doll in Fang Ruyi's hands with disdain as he said this.

However, when she saw the look of disappointment in Fang Ruxiu's eyes, she felt that she could not hurt her granddaughter's enthusiasm, so she added, "If it were those young misses of the large family, they would probably be willing to spend their money to buy it."

"Right, right, Grandma, the reason I did all of this was to sell it to those young masters and young misses. I think they would buy it, and if they didn't, I would have tried my best to sell it as well." Fang Ru Xiu said confidently.

"Mm, when your uncle comes back at the end of this month, you can do something so that he can help you sell it." The Yu's continued.

"Mm. Alright." At this moment, if she were to tell Yu's that she, a little girl, was going to make a public appearance in a county city, it would definitely be a little inappropriate. It would be better to come back on that day, since she definitely had a way to convince them.

According to his assumption, he added a hanging rope on top of the doll and added two simple strings under the doll's skirt. Below the two strings, Fang Ru had tied a knot which was just as small as the piece of white cloth. When she lifted the hanging rope, she gently shook the doll, causing the doll's legs to appear and disappear amidst the white skirt.

Fang Ruxiu nodded. She felt that the effect was not bad, and carefully stitched the eyes and mouth on the head of the doll. In the end, the simple doll was done.

"Grandpa, come over here and take a look. Is this sunny kid that I made beautiful?" Fang Ru Xiu raised her doll and said to Fang Weicheng who was practicing his calligraphy.

Fang Weicheng turned his head around and saw the doll in Fang Ruxiu's hands. When he gently shook it, Fang Weicheng felt that this doll gave him a very special feeling, even though it was simple but very elegant.

Coincidentally, he had already written a large piece of paper. Thus, he stopped writing, walked to the side of the stove, and carefully looked at the doll in Fang Ruxiu's hand. Then, he nodded his head in agreement.

"Simple and elegant, is this for me?" Fang Weicheng actually asked for it.

"Alright, since grandpa likes it, then I'll give this child to grandpa." As Fang Ru Xiu said this, she handed over the first clear sky doll she made to Fang Weicheng.

After Fang Weicheng saw it, he smiled and waved his hand. Since the Yeats said that this was something used to sell money, then he naturally had to weigh it. For the countryside, even a single coin was extremely rare.

"Alright, then Grandpa, when the summer comes and I take off this paper, I'll give you something even better." After seeing Fang Weicheng's refusal, Fang Ru Xiu did not pass it over to him. In any case, in her opinion, there was no place for this child to hang in Yu's's room right now.

Fang Weicheng did not speak, but stroked his beard once again and nodded.

It wasn't until it was time for dinner that she finally made five. Among them, ten of them didn't have any embroidery. She planned to make all of them before she started embroidering again.

If it was embroidery below, then there was no need to be afraid of not being able to eat breakfast in time. Furthermore, with the Yu's supporting her, no one dared to snag her lunch, even though it was an unsatisfactory lunch, but at least they would still be half full.

After the meal, Fang Ruyi continued to busy herself with making these dolls. In reality, it was not difficult to make these dolls into shapes. However, it was a bit more difficult to embroider the flowers on top of it. After all, every single one of the items that Fang Ruyi made was different.
