Chapter 171
"It's saponins. There are only three saponins trees in our village, and I have picked almost all of them. I can't pick them all. Some people want to use the boiled water to wash their hair. They have picked them all. They have to criticize us. When I finish all these in my hand, I have to go to a farther place to pick them." Chen Yu said.

Chen Xin said: "No, it's not easy to pick those from other villages. I've already thought about this problem. When the saponins are used up, I'll teach you how to make soap without saponins."

"Can it be made without saponins?"

"It's the same with saponins, that is, the raw materials are refined in other factories and you have to buy them. But it's much easier to make than using saponins."

Thinking that the cost will increase in the future, Chen Yu felt a little regretful, and sighed: "That's no way, I can only buy it, and the saponin tree will not always grow saponin. Also, that..."

Seeing that he hesitated and stopped talking, Chen Xin asked, "What else?"

Chen Yu scratched his head: "Well... we are eating bean curd tonight, do you want to invite Jiang Xiaoqi to eat together? Didn't you bring a lot of high-end candies from their house last time? No Be engaged, don't owe others too much favor."

Chen Xin was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "You didn't tell me earlier."

Chen Yudao: "When I went out this morning, I didn't expect to be able to sell so much money today."

Chen Xin smiled and said: "Dinner must have been prepared at home, forget it this time, let's do it next time."

It's nothing to have a meal or two, and it's nothing to owe some favors for a while, anyway, she won't treat her doll cheats badly!

The family happily prepares dinner, just like a festival.

Thinking that today is a good day, Chen Xin glanced at Zheng Xiaomei who was eating quietly and restrainedly with her job bowl in hand, and didn't ask her when she would go back.

She didn't think carefully about whether Zheng Xiaomei wanted to go back. This was not Zheng Xiaomei's home, so she should go back when she recovered from her illness.

She also didn't expect Zheng Xiaomei to help the family, anyway, as long as she didn't make trouble.

So when she came home from school the next night and learned what was going on at home, she first became aware of the problem.

On this day, she went home as usual, and as soon as she got home, she found that the atmosphere in the house was a bit different from usual, and the expressions of several people in the family were not very good.

It stands to reason that her brother went to the market today, so no matter how much he earns, he should make some money, and he won't have a long face, like someone owes him money.

And her father, who is smoking leaf cigarettes instead of knitting pig hair brushes today, feels worried.

As for her mother, her eyes were a little swollen, and it looked like she had cried.

Chen Yang, who came home from school, saw this posture, and immediately got into the kitchen to help with work, without saying a word.

Chen Xin looked at this, then at that, and asked, "Did something happen at home?"

The one who answered her was Mrs. Zheng who came out of their back room——Zheng Xianglan's mother, the grandmother of their three brothers and sisters!

Chen Xin frowned quickly, and walked to the back room with her schoolbag on her back.

As soon as she entered her room, she found that the microscope she put on the cabinet was gone!

Just as she was about to go out to ask about the situation, Zheng Xiaomei followed her in, grabbed her arm, told her to keep her voice down, first pointed to the top of the cabinet, and then pointed to the body of the cabinet.

Chen Xin was taken aback, and asked her in a low voice, "Inside?"

Zheng Xiaomei nodded.

"You let it go?" Chen Xin asked again.

Zheng Xiaomei nodded again.

Chen Xin thought for a while, then asked, "What is your grandma doing here?"

Zheng Xiaomei just hung her head and didn't answer this question.
