Splendid little maid

Chapter 73
Whether it's helping the young master or pulling Yu'er Fuzhu and Linglong together, they are all part of the stable foundation she laid for her future.

Chen Xi is happy to do this.

She was used to working alone in the past, once she was sure, she would rush forward, how would she know if it would work if she didn't try?Of course, caution is necessary, but being too indecisive is not good either.

Seeing that she knew what she was thinking, the young master had nothing to do with her, he just lamented her boldness, he had never seen such a bold girl.

This is completely desperate.

If memory can be shared.
The young master will only be more impressed after seeing Chen Xi's hard work in the previous life.

The busy traffic in the early morning is a scene that often accompanies her. Sometimes there is really little time for a day's rest in rushing to work. It is normal to sleep for four or five hours a day.

I have to catch up with the list.

Most of the time, even on the way to sleep, it is fragmented time to rest.

When I first saved tuition fees, I was too busy to go around. I had no choice but to make up for what I was born lacking compared to others.

Is it okay not to work hard?

Can not be done.

She is the only child in the family, and her grandfather is getting older. How can she do without money?
What if you don't pay?
She feels extremely uneasy without money, so she has been working hard.

Fortunately, she has always been bold.

Not afraid of walking at night.

I'm used to being alone.

What makes her famous is not only her diligence and hard work, but also her courage.

So she was right to be bold.

She always does.

As an aborigine, the young master was imprisoned here, so his thinking was naturally old-fashioned.

Chen Xi didn't explain too much, and kept busy with his own work. It is still unknown whether it can be refined now, so let's hurry up and try the first refining.

Time is also money.

If you can not waste it, you will not waste it.

After the young master acquiesced, he retreated to the second line, didn't say anything more, and went to say something about her.

This is very pleasing.

Chen Xi found a wooden stick to stir the water soaked in salt soil. The water was very cloudy, but it didn't matter, the main reason was to soak out the salt.

If salt can be produced, it proves that the saline soil has a high enough salt concentration.

She thinks she can even make a salt well or something, but she doesn't know if it can be shipped.

After soaking for a long time.

Chen Xi used a ladle to scoop the water to the filtered wooden bucket and filtered it again.

Then make the container for the second filtration, this time you need a wooden barrel with a broken bottom, but this time you need to put in charcoal and gravel.

Then pour the filtered brine slowly from the top again and let it pass through the purification materials and fall to the bottom of the barrel, and then flow into the tub from the broken corner.

Chen Xi finally obtained relatively pure salt water. She dipped it in and tasted it, and found that it did have a salty taste, and the taste was much better than before, without bitterness.

After watching the whole process, the young master felt that the latter was similar to the boiling salt recorded in the book.

The difference is that others use seawater, but she actually uses soil soaked in water to operate.

It's strange for her to know this.

And he also dipped some water and sipped it, and found that it really tasted salty?

The taste is still very good?

Soil can really refine salt?
The young master felt shocked.

Seeing this, Chen Xi smiled and said, "How is it? Isn't it pretty good?"

The young master nodded frankly this time and said, "It's really good."

In fact, it should be so good to say it, but he has a thin skin and really can't say it.

It feels good for Chen Xi to win for the first time.

Now it's the last step.

Boil on the stove!
Whether the salt can come out of the finished product depends on the step of boiling the water dry.

Chen Xi carefully carried the hard-earned salt water into the small kitchen and put it away. After cleaning the big pot, he poured it down and boiled it. During this period, it took a lot of firewood, and he had to stir it from time to time.The cost is quite high.

Seeing that she was finally able to sit down and rest, the young master silently poured her a bowl of warm water, then handed it to her, and he also sat down beside her side by side.

Prepare to witness the miracle for yourself.

Chen Xi didn't expose his curiosity, took the water with a smile and drank it, and then looked at the fire seriously.

Boiling salt takes time,
The young master felt that it was a waste to wait, so he went back and took the book, and dutifully read it to her, because he still remembered what she had to learn.

Chen Xi couldn't help but laugh.

Learn from him.

Time passes quickly.

After Yu'er and Linglong came back in disgrace, they found something strange in the well.

When the two of them took a look into the kitchen and saw Chen Xi studying with the young master, they felt novelty, and went back to the well to take care of themselves without disturbing them.

Yu'er and Linglong looked at each other and felt that the young master was just as clingy as they were.

Although he seldom talks, it shows in his actions, he always has to be nearby when their sister Magpie comes back, otherwise he won't see him for a long time.

Yu'er laughed because of this, thinking that he was just a child and would be clingy.

Considering how good their sister Magpie is, which child would not like it?
After all, it is so reliable.

Just like a grown-up.

As long as Chen Xi had been waiting in the kitchen, she listened to the young master's reading, and memorized an article along the way, but maybe she didn't read enough in her previous life, she had never heard of this article, and it sounded like an article in classical Chinese.

hard to pronounce.

The young master reads very fluently, and his eloquence is surprisingly good.

Chen Xi discovered another advantage.

The salt was boiled from the afternoon to the evening, and finally it became thick and began to take shape.

Chen Xi felt happy looking at it.

Turn down the fire.

She is ready to make dinner.

There are three stoves in the small kitchen, one for boiling salt, one for boiling water and one for cooking.

Just right.

A small tandoor can be used to simmer soup.

Chen Xi took down the basket from the hook on the top, and there were bacon and sausages in it.

There is still a lot of rice, because I have been frugal in the later period and used coarse grains mixed with white flour to make the staple food. The rice is only used to cook salty porridge, and it is the kind with more vegetables and less rice, so the consumption speed is not fast, and there is still one-third two.

Chen Xi had a big happy event today, so he decided to have a good meal.

She washed the big pot and cleaned the rice, then put it in the pot and boiled it for a while.

During this period, I had to wash some bacon and sausages and cut them up for later use.

The rice soup is rolled.

When the rice is boiled, the rice soup can be scooped up and filtered, and the rice is put in a small earthenware pot for stewing rice in a small stove, and the rice soup is reserved for drinking later to quench your thirst.

The young master handed over the small pottery pot. These fish are usually cleaned and kept for later use. It is also convenient to use at the moment. I have to say that she is very considerate.

After Chen Xi took it, he didn't need to wash it any more. He opened the lid of the pot, put the fatty bacon in, lit the charcoal fire of the small stove, and then let it stir-fry to produce some oil.

The unique aroma of bacon burst out immediately, successfully filling the entire kitchen.

The young master unconsciously moved his Adam's apple again, couldn't hold back his saliva, and immediately felt his stomach beating with hunger, it was entirely because of the aroma that stimulated his appetite.
