Traveling through the money-making life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 795 Mint leaves can prevent insects

With this kind of doubt, Chen Rou went to the backyard to call Shen Zhuo. Because of the incident at noon, Shen Zhuo simply threw away the chair and asked Chen Rou to help him in and out. Although his legs still hurt, he knew that it was a normal reaction .

"Why don't you eat wild vegetable cakes, and why don't you drink water."

Chen Rou saw the wild vegetable cakes on the ground and asked curiously.

"Shouldn't Rou'er be more concerned about where Little Bean Sprout will sleep tonight?"

"..."

What happened at noon put Shen Zhuo in a good mood all afternoon, and even the episode given by Fu Rong was forgotten.

There was still a large table of people. During the meal, Fu Rongan quietly said nothing, but listened to the conversation between Zhou Xiaojiu and Chen Rou, intermittently, which made the large table laugh from time to time. She suddenly felt a little envious of this environment. Even if Chen Rou doesn't speak, she can become the focus of everyone. Whatever she does, people will dislike her. Even a piece of food, obviously tastes good, but some people don't even want to taste it.

"Rourou, why is your house fumigated? Why don't you have a single mosquito?"

After the meal, Zhou Xiaojiu asked curiously while drinking the mint tea prepared by Chen Rou.

smoke what?She didn't do anything?
"No, but don't tell me, there are really no mosquitoes today, it's weird." Chen Rou looked around, but she didn't know why, but when she went out, the mosquitoes outside the house seemed to be in swarms Like the guard of honor of the police station, it kept buzzing, but no mosquitoes came to bite her.

Could it be that she has become a person who cannot move in the mosquito's mouth?
Chen Rou secretly laughed, and suddenly remembered Zhou Xiaojiu's words.

[Rourou, what did you smoke in your house? 】

Xun, Chen Rou suddenly thought of something, raised her arm, put it on the tip of her nose and smelled it, it turned out to be the fragrance of mint, could it be because of the fragrance of mint?
Everyone drank mint tea in the evening, and had cooked it a few times before. Chen Rou didn't notice it at that time. Now that I think about it, mint leaves are useful.

According to her understanding, the ancients had the habit of hanging sachets. Is it not just for the sake of looking good, but also has the effect of repelling insects?
She didn't know, so Chen Rou ran to ask Shen Zhuo, just finished eating, Shen Zhuo played in the room with bean sprouts in order to make room for her to drink Zhou Xiaojiu, and as soon as she entered the room, Chen Rou asked.

"Does the mint leaf have the effect of repelling mosquitoes, and is it also for repelling insects with a sachet?"

Shen Zhuo didn't hesitate. The sachets that many people he saw in the capital were either flower petals or insect-repellent plants, which were similar to what his wife said.

"That's right, but they have stricter requirements on the smell, and the smell emitted by each sachet will not make people feel bad."

"Understood, thank you brother Zhuo."

After Shen Zhuo's words, Chen Rou decided to make some mosquito-repelling sachets by herself, which can not only make money, but also save effort. The most important thing is that these things can be used with women. Women have loved fragrance since ancient times. Maybe, she In the future, there is no need to grow such vegetables, flowers or special grasses.

In order to understand the situation, Chen Rou brought Sanwazi to the town in an ox cart early in the morning. The kimchi made a few days ago can be sold again today, so she should sell more and save some money quickly.

Because of the experience I learned at Dingshi last time, Chen Rou also sold kimchi near the restaurant this time, but she didn't go to the restaurant because Zhou Xiaojiu said that Qiao Si didn't know whether it was an enemy or a friend, so she had to avoid it.

But she didn't know that there is a saying in the world that there is no way to avoid it.
