Liu the carpenter also added that these were the designs given by Qin Yao. Without her permission, he wouldn't make a new one.
In this case, even Liu Dafu gave up. It was still more cost-effective to rent from Qin Yao's family.
Qin Yao and Liu the carpenter exchanged a glance, reaching a tacit understanding that in the future he could use the mill for free.
People had seen enough and gradually dispersed.
In the end, only the Liu Family remained by the watermill.
There had been too many people just now. Mrs. Qiu, who was newly pregnant, was afraid of being pushed and didn't dare get close. Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. He had also been squeezed outside by others.
Now, the three in-laws had the chance to closely observe Qin Yao's watermill. Seeing the millstone turning on its own with a "whirring" sound, they found the mill delightful.
But they also learned from Liu the carpenter that the watermill cost as much as two taels of silver, which they found wasteful.
