After reading the letter, Qin Yao sneered, threw the letter on the table, and turned on the lamp to sleep.
However, Liu Ji actually saw her going to the county seat?
There are various tests in the letter to confirm whether she has discovered that he is eating, drinking and having fun in the city and not doing his job.
Qin Yao has no fluctuations in her heart. There is no point in testing or not testing. Now Liu Ji is useless to her.
There are four trumpets at home. She can recharge any of them and the results will be better than his useless account.
It's just a few years later, and things are getting better and better now, so she's not in a hurry.
As for the money Liu Ji owes, if he can't pay it back, he can pay it with his life.
He also ordered Erlang to get the clam shells they had touched by the river in the summer.
●First, take out half a can of lard and let it cool down. Then fill a small bowl with the boiled oil residue, and the mother and son will eat it while working.
Especially after Dalang told them that Qin Yao had named each of their brothers and sisters, Erlang wanted to eat the book directly.
The fried residue is crispy and crunchy when you take a bite, leaving a fragrant aroma in your mouth.
This is not a calcium oxide and salt wash.
A name that belongs exclusively to them, not who they belong to. Just like Jinbao Jinhua, you can tell whose name you are calling when you call it.
When Qin Yao got up, there was only the rustle of writing and drawing in the courtyard, and her heart naturally calmed down.
“Absolutely.” Qin Yao nodded and asked Dalang to find two basins and gauze for him.
Dalang said a little embarrassedly: "I told them all the names you gave me, auntie."
“What is soap?” Erlang asked in confusion, and took a deep breath of the aroma of meat wafting from the pot.
By the way, Qin Yao gave them some science knowledge about saponification reaction.
Qin Yao glanced into the room in surprise. She thought they were practicing calligraphy, but she didn't expect that they were writing her own name.
The clothes that Qin Yao had changed into, Dalang and Erlang, were also washed and dried flat on the bamboo poles in the courtyard.
Her handwriting is nothing fancy, but neat.
She had seen Qin Yao use plant ash to alkalize straw before, and thought it was still like this.
“We still have to wait a month.” Siniang pouted and asked Qin Yao, “Mom, can't we use it now?”
Qin Yao replied: "You will know when you make it for washing clothes and bathing."
The four Dalang brothers and sisters knew her temperament and did not bother her.
The next day, Qin Yao took out the cooled lard, poured the precipitated alkaline water into the lard, then poured in the ground coarse salt powder, and stirred it with wood chips to cause a saponification reaction.
Since he didn't get a good night's sleep after going into the mountains for many days, Qin Yao got enough sleep at once and didn't get up until noon.
Make breakfast by yourself, leave her portion warm on the stove after eating, and then whoever's turn it is to do housework will wash the pots and dishes.
Dalang and the four of them looked at each other, laughed, and looked at each other's names together. When Erlang read out each word, they would all respond loudly, claiming their own names.
Qin Yao took out the stone bowl for beating sesame seeds from the kitchen, poured the cooked clam shells into the bowl and pounded them into fine powder for later use.
She stretched herself and walked past the window of the four siblings. Four pairs of eyes immediately looked over. The fourth mother lost her brush, slipped off the chair, ran out of the house and rushed into Qin Yao's arms.
Siniang held the brush, dipped it in water and wrote her name on the table. The characters were found by Erlang from the book. One is flat and the other is rhombus. The strokes are not difficult, but for Siniang, they are already very complicated characters. .
Cut the fat meat into small pieces, first brush a layer of oil on the hot iron pan, and then pour all the fat meat pieces in. There will be a sizzling sound, and then an attractive aroma bursts out, fragrant to all the four children in the room. He ran over and gathered around the kitchen door, watching curiously. “Aniang, what are you doing shoveling ashes?” Sanlang asked.
The crooked strokes were repeated over and over again on the wooden table, and the little girl giggled while writing.
For breakfast, Dalang cooked white rice porridge, chopped half a catty of meat into minced meat, and stir-fried it with a large bowl of chopped sauerkraut.
But the four brothers and sisters firmly believe that this must be a spell!
Watching the liquid turn into a solid little by little, the four Dalang brothers thought Qin Yao was casting a spell.
Use cotton thread to cut the paste into twelve small pieces, place it in a flat-bottomed bamboo basket and hang it in a ventilated place in the storage room. After drying for a month, you can use it to wash clothes and wash hands.
Qin Yao raised her lips slightly, walked in with Siniang in her arms, put the little girl back on the chair, picked up the brush, and wrote down all four names.
Dalang and Erlang come to wash the dirty clothes, but the twins don't know how to do it yet.
Dalang thought of the soap powder he had asked about at the grocery store yesterday, and asked uncertainly: "Auntie, are you going to make soap powder? The one that costs twenty cents a tael?"
Qin Yao poured all the minced meat and sauerkraut into the porridge pot. It tasted appetizing and refreshing.
The white paste was still soft after saponification. Qin Yao put it into bamboo tubes and opened it three days later to become two white cylinders.
Qin Yao shook her head, "I'm going to make soap today."
I have finished all the housework, practiced martial arts, and studied. I know that such opportunities are rare, so I am very self-disciplined.
Pour clam shell powder into alkaline water and stir, filter again, and let it sit under the eaves to settle overnight.
The two of them took the money and immediately ran towards Liu Guolang's house, very happy to participate.
Erlang quickly brought over half a bag of mussel shells. Qin Yao threw all the charcoal left over from last winter into the stove hole and burned it. He placed it alone in the stove, poured the mussel shells in and heated them at high temperature.
Qin Yao didn't want to think about this person anymore and affect her mood, so she closed her eyes, relaxed, and fell asleep.
"By the way, Sanlang and Si Niang, you go to Liu Gonglang's house and buy three taels of coarse salt for me." Qin Yao put the half bucket of plant ash at the door of the kitchen, went back to the house, took six cents and handed it to Longfengtai.
“Here, just practice as you will. You'll need it for school in the future.” Qin Yao put down her pen, touched her heads one by one, clapped her hands and went to the kitchen to find something to eat.
It was just time for lunch. Although he ate late in the morning and should be able to last until evening, he was already hungry now.
Then pour the previously obtained plant ash into a clay pot, add water on the stove and boil it, then filter it layer by layer with gauze to produce alkaline water.
They wanted to join in the fun, but Erlang was disgusted and drove them away, asking them to feed the chickens and horses.
The coarse salt bought by Sanlang and Siniang was also pounded and ground into powder for later use.
When the lard in the pot boils out, the clam shells are almost cooked.
Sanlang also wanted to write, but unfortunately, the four brothers and sisters had not learned Mingzi yet. Erlang couldn't find the corresponding one, so he had to follow the second brother and write his two simple characters "子书".
“Aniang, how do you write the names of the younger brother and the older brother?” she asked.
Dry the porridge and vegetables in one go, wash them, light a fire and set up a pot to boil the lard.
Si Niang said to herself, "Do you want to give Lao Huang another meal?"
"Yes, but it's not easy to use. It's just like shit." Qin Yao hung the basket on the beam, jumped off the stool, and waved her hand to drive the four brothers and sisters out.
“Let's wait and see again in a month. No one is allowed to make trouble and secretly get it for me.” Qin Yao solemnly asked.
Si Niang could only sigh, "Okay."
