The daily farming life of the black-bellied young lady

Chapter 64 Ming painstakingly makes paper

"Did you take my medicine?" Chu Ying brought the medicine jar in front of Ye Qiu.

"No, isn't it the original one?" Ye Qiu glanced at it and continued to mend Chu Ying's torn clothes.

"The smell is not right, and it only came here in the morning, but now there are more, either you moved or you put something in it. If you are sent by the eldest lady to monitor and harm me, you should leave early."

Ye Qiu put his clothes aside and grabbed Chu Ying's hand, "How could it be? Besides, the lady has never harmed you. Since you were born, the lady has always asked her servants to take good care of her. Every time you get sick, the lady can take care of you." You won't refuse to go when you get up, how can you say that about Da Furen?"

Why is it that Chu Ying doesn't believe that Ye Qiu said that the lady is so kind to her? Pretentiously, "Then why do you want to kill me? Do you want to burn me to death?"

"Second miss, you have to make this clear. The last time the eldest lady saw you go back, she has been begging the old lady to let you go back to the mansion, and she knelt outside the door for a whole day. You also know that the eldest lady is not in good health, but... "Ye Qiu looked at Chu Ying, who was still so young, and couldn't bear to say those words to her.

"but what?"

"But the government has always said that your fate is hard. You are often sick, and you were born very weak. Your fate is so hard that even God will not accept it. This time you killed the old man. The old lady said that you will never enter the house again. Yes." Hearing these words, Chu Ying smiled wryly and went back to the room.

It is true that I am just a child from a concubine, with no status, no protection, I never thought about it and would not go back, but I don't know why the eldest lady treats me like this.

"You also know that I am weak, so why bother to embarrass me, maybe I will die of illness one day, and what are you going to do to harm me. Do you know this?" Ye Qiu took the silver that Chu Ying handed over and burned it. The lid, this exquisite lid looks like the lid of a fire zip, and the young master of the Lu Mansion seemed to have given the young miss this on her birthday.

"Where did Chu Ying get it?"

"You just need to answer whether you recognize it or not, and whose it is." Ye Qiu knelt on the ground with his legs crossed and lowered his head, "This is Missy's belongings, but it is in your hands for some reason. "

"Last time when it was on fire, I didn't find anything, but I found this. Don't talk about it, did you change my medicine?" Ye Qiu bent down and buried his head between the two hands supporting the ground.

"Yes, the medicine you used was not good, so I bought new medicine when I went to the market, but I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would blame me if you found out."

Chu Ying looked at the ointment in her hand. She just applied some of it and felt it was very refreshing, and she didn't feel any discomfort. If there was anything strange, she would have to control Ye Qiu long ago before torture.

"You are doing this for my own good, why should I blame you?"

"Because..." Ye Qiu looked up at Chu Ying, who was expressionless. Although she had a dark childish face, the cold air all over her body made her dare not prevaricate.

"I spent 1 tael and 6 yuan. This is the money I brought myself. I wanted to buy some food." Chu Ying heard the 1 tael 6 and almost gave this prodigal old lady a bad mouth. If you are not in charge of the family, you don't know how expensive Chai Mi is, and the children from this city are too ignorant, so Chu Ying swallowed a mouthful of old blood forcefully.

"You said it's yours, I don't care what you do with it, but there's really no need to spend the money for my scars, you can keep them for later use."

"Second Miss has a delicate body, how can she leave scars? How can I explain this to the eldest lady? Second Miss, don't blame the eldest lady. She is really good to you, so good that people in the mansion think you are her own. Maybe this is also true. The reason why the eldest lady makes things difficult for you, but now that you are in the countryside, the eldest lady will not cause trouble anymore." Hearing what Ye Qiu said, it seems that the eldest lady has done more than one good thing to him.

"Okay, let's rest early, I should be a little tired from going to the market today."

"Well, Chu Ying should go to bed early too." Chu Ying didn't have the heart to look at Ye Qiu again, but felt a little tired. She didn't want to get involved in anyone's interests. She just wanted to live a good life by herself. She didn't want to before, but now she doesn't In no mood.

In the dream, Chu Ying saw the so-called stepmother again, the woman who snatched her father away from her mother. Chu Ying never asked about adult matters, but that woman did not show any remorse, and made things difficult for her mother. In order not to let himself get involved, he sent himself to the military academy, but how could he stay out of it.

At dawn, Chu Ying rubbed her sore temples, and had another night's dream. Chu Ying really envied those who didn't dream.

Before, I was too young and was sent to the military school when I was sensible, so I couldn't help my mother, but here, Chu Ying will never let anyone bully her. Defend your own rights and interests.

"Chu Ying, this is the paste with fish meat added, take a look, can you eat it?" Chu Ying looked at the somewhat runny paste and it really made things difficult for Ye Qiu, a clever woman can't cook without rice.

"I can do it all, don't pick." Chu Ying has almost used up the toilet paper, and she has to make some more paper in the past few days, but the simple method of retting is slower. Chu Ying used those branches The bark and the branches are cut into small sections with an axe, and then added with plant ash and fired in a wooden barrel heated by water.

Pick up some burnt branches and put them in a wooden barrel and beat them with wood, so that the fibers can be beaten out. This is a laborious and tiring job. "Come on, you have been doing it for a long time." Chu Ying sat down Watching Ye Qiu doing his work, he thought that he had seen a rice cake-making tool before, which used the principle of leverage to step on one side, and the other side would rise.

Chu Ying moved a large stone, and then put a piece of wood on it. After finding a suitable position, she tied a thicker piece of wood to a section, stepped on it with her foot, and it really lifted up, but the stone had no grooves. , this wood will fall by itself after stepping on it a few times.

Chu Ying tapped the stone slowly with the back of the axe, trying to make some grooves, but there was no tool, so the grooves were a bit big, so Chu Ying put some small wooden blocks inside, and then put the long wood on top of it. Knock in a slightly longer piece of wood, so that the long piece of wood will be fixed on the stone and will not fall off.

Chu Ying chopped off a section of wood, so that her feet could step on it smoothly, instead of sliding down when stepping on the log before, Chu Ying asked Ye Qiu to move the wooden barrel filled with wood pulp, try it Can it be used.

At the beginning, I still didn't have the manual flexibility, but the two people cooperated with each other, and they were able to hit the branch fibers accurately.

"Is Chu Ying going to make paper?"

"Yeah, do it yourself, and use it to wipe your butt if you can't do it." Chu Ying gave Ye Qiu a smirk.

"How can paper be used for such dirty things." Ye Qiu took his hand away, Chu Ying stepped on one end, and the stick fell on Ye Qiu's hand.
