Chapter 115 Leather Armor
Lin Yue came to see her uncle and grandma, and brought some embroidery work made by small snacks on the street.
"Uncle and grandma, Yue'er has come to see you."
"Good boy, you have been here for a long time, did you greet Grandpa Li and the others?"
"I went to visit grandpa and aunt, and I came to you. I brought you some snacks. As the weather is getting hotter, I made spring shirts and shoes for you and grandpa. Try to see if they fit you well?"
"well."
Granduncle is very happy.
Lin Yue came to visit her uncle and grandma every now and then. The old man liked her very much and knew that she was helpless. He often mentioned her relationships and life principles, and advised her to be strong and brave. Go see how many widows there are in my family and you will know that you are not the most miserable. .
After coming and going, Lin Yue was very grateful to the old man, and was willing to get close to her. The old man had the kindness and peace that young people didn't have, which was what she lacked the most.
"Fit, who are you making this for?"
"The riding suit I made for Yu'er, isn't she going to train cavalry? I made her a leather armor to see if it would work well. I haven't made anything like this before."
"Let me see, whoops! It's really good, this leather armor is very reasonable."
"I figured it out based on the pictures drawn in the book, and I also saw that Yu'er's arms, legs and chest wear a lot during training, and the wear-resistant leather armor can also play a protective role. It's embarrassing for a girl's clothes to rot."
Lin Yue explained patiently, wanting to do something for Li Yu.
"You are so careful, kid. Let Yu'er take it for a try. If it's good, you can make two more."
"Okay, if you need me to make a few more, I will make one for the cavalry."
"You don't need to pay, let the Night King pay, just give me the picture."
"Okay, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."
Lin Yue readily agreed.
Li Yu came here after washing up after training, and resumed her previous narrow-sleeved, corseted riding outfit, which was convenient for her to fight on horseback, neatly.
"Yue'er is here, stay for dinner later."
"Okay, I brought the sauced beef. His meat is the best, and it was sold out early. I asked Ding Xiang to line up early in the morning, so it can be regarded as bought."
Lin Yue said with a smile.
"You don't know, I wanted to eat this one yesterday, but I didn't buy it. It was sold out when I went late. You know me too well."
Li Yu smiled happily when he heard that, hugged her and kissed her.
Lin Yue was blushed by her and gave her a blank look.
"Yue'er made leather armor for you. Try it. If it works, I'll ask your father to make a suit for the cavalry."
"Let me see."
"It's not bad, it's soft. It's made of leather. The wooden armor I wore before is a bit inconvenient to stretch my arms. It's hard and soft."
Li Yu’s training has armor, made of wooden strips, similar to weaving rattan baskets, but it is a bit hard and not easy to stretch.
"I thought that one was a bit hard, but this one is made of cowhide, which is soft. I'll give you a try. If it fits, I'll make a few more for you. If it doesn't work, I'm looking for another leather."
"I can see it, what do you think, uncle and grandma?"
Li Yu tried wearing the leather armor and stretching his arms and legs. It was indeed light and neat, and did not affect the stretching of his arms and legs.
"Don't say you put it on, I can see it is good, the joints are very flexible, Yu'er, wear it for a few more days to feel it, if there is any need for improvement, if it is good, I will ask your father to ask Night King to customize it. "
"Okay, this is better than wood, smart and convenient."
"Indeed, cowhide is not expensive, it stretches freely, it is much cheaper than chain mail, and the cost is not much different from wooden armor. You have made great contributions, Yue'er, and I will never forget your kindness."
The uncle and grandma have been the daughter-in-law of military generals all their lives, so they can naturally see it.
"Grandma, I don't want credit, can you donate it so that the Li family don't mention my name?"
Lin Yue pursed her lips and smiled lightly.
"Why, these clothes are really good, you don't understand, many soldiers go to the battlefield without armor, with this one more layer of protection, if you can come back with a different life, I will definitely reward you for your credit."
Li Yu was puzzled, why did he retreat.
"Yu'er, I'm just an orphan girl. It's not good to be too public. I have to recruit you, Qi Yu, and the Gu family to make a little money in my small business. The rafters in my early years are bad."
"Don't mention my name, I don't want it, you just need to wear what is suitable for you. If you and Uncle Li and Brother Li were not there to protect me during this escape, the grass on my grave would not even know how tall it is. Even if I give you the gift of thanks ?”
Lin Yue knows how to keep a low profile and make a fortune in silence. Even if Ye Wang knows that she did it, so what, she can't be seen by Ye Wang. The one who can take care of her and protect her is the Gu family and the Li family. Not on her.
"Good boy, you have grown up, so don't make things difficult for you. I will explain it to your aunt. You can rest assured that the Li family will protect you for a long time."
Uncle and grandma understood her intentions, and she didn't have much power to resist because she was afraid that others would stare at her.
Lin Yue is an official daughter anyway, she understands the power of power, she has no power to resist now, she can only be slaughtered by mermaids, it is better to keep a low profile.
"Thank you, uncle and grandma, I will go back tomorrow and bring you the picture."
"good."
Li Yu was wearing leather armor, happily walking around the room.
"If you dress well, I'll make you another armor, a serious chain mail."
Lin Yue was so happy to see her, and also very happy that she had given the right gift, so she promised to give her a beautiful chain mail.
"Really, don't frame me?"
Li Yu's eyes lit up instantly.
"I won't lie to you, I even drew the picture, but I have no experience in doing it. I made this leather armor first, and then went back to modify the chain armor when it fit. I have seen the chain armor of Grandpa Gu and Uncle. know what it's like."
"Okay, I want chain mail. It should be practical. It doesn't matter whether it is good or not. It must not reflect light in the sun, otherwise it will be life-threatening."
"Okay, I remember."
Lin Yue nodded vigorously.
At noon, I stayed with my uncle and grandma, and my mother and I ate a hot pot together. Lin Yue brought a small basket of green leafy vegetables, which she asked Master Zhuangzi to use in the house for trial planting. It was done the first year, and there were only a few baskets in total. , A few close friends sent it back and it was gone.
Granduncle asked someone to take two handfuls and send them to Grandpa Li, and also tasted something new.
"This is a vegetable grown in a greenhouse. It's really good. It's rare to have a bite of this in winter."
"It's not easy to plant, and I don't have much experience yet. I'll try again next year. This year, it's all about this. Every family will give you a gift and it will be gone. But when it's hot, there will be food to eat."
Lin Yue has gradually learned about farming and housekeeping, and presided over Zhongfei.
"I plan to open a restaurant to cook northern dishes, and you also come to one to worry about some chores for me."
Li Yu has a ready-made shop, and plans to redecorate it as a restaurant, serving as imperial meals for the northern capital, which is also a gimmick.
