After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 55 Toothbrush and Toothpaste
Bai Qingyun also specially gave a handful of bamboo. People who often eat grilled fish and chicken should pay more attention to oral hygiene.
With a toothbrush, Bai Qingyun would naturally not be satisfied with brushing his teeth with salt, otherwise the value of the toothbrush would be wasted, and the matching toothpaste would naturally not be lacking.
There are different methods for making toothpaste. The better ones can be blended with some spices, while the simpler ones can be made with natural ingredients.
Since he didn’t know how to make incense, Bai Qingyun had to use local materials.
Select fresh and tender branches of willow, locust and mulberry, wash them and put them directly into the pot. After heating for several hours, you can boil out a "paste", and the simple toothpaste is ready.
In order to enhance the cleaning effect and taste of the toothpaste, Bai Qingyun also added raw materials such as ginger juice.
A lot of it was boiled at once and packaged in small bamboo tubes, with each person getting a portion.
After cleaning, Xie Shuer took out a new toothbrush and toothpaste, and prepared breakfast for the two of them. She first took the toiletries back to the room, and then went to the kitchen to bring breakfast.
After placing the food on the table, Bai Qingyun saw the dazed girl in front of him, holding her toothbrush in a daze. "Is it inconvenient for you to get up? I'll help you."
I was careless. I only thought that her leg was not injured and forgot that her hand was injured!
But as soon as Bai Qingyun's hand touched her, the girl stood up in surprise and said, "I can do it myself!"
The voice was unusually panicked.
"Just...what is this?"
"It's just a toothbrush and toothpaste that we made at home. It has the function of cleaning the mouth and makes the mouth refreshed after use. Just squeeze the toothpaste onto the toothbrush and dip it in water to brush your teeth!"
As he said this, he demonstrated, "Be careful not to swallow the foam that may be produced during the process, just rinse it out with clean water!"
"Your hand is injured, can you do it yourself?"
"can."
"This toothbrush and toothpaste are really magical. My mouth feels much more comfortable instantly!"
Not only did I feel comfortable, but I also felt a little better after rinsing my mouth because I was feeling a little uncomfortable and weak due to the wound.
"Come over for breakfast then!"
Guests are welcome, and it is not the host's business to start eating before they sit at the table. They have to sit aside and wait, and only sit at the table after the host has finished eating.
The two were really hungry. When they smelled the delicious food, they started eating first. After all, they needed to be full to have energy before talking about things.
Bai Qingyun's eating habits were not ugly, but they were very obvious in front of the girl.
Even though she was starving and had just felt a little embarrassed about her growling stomach, she was now eating slowly with her chopsticks. Her movements were slow and graceful, without a single bit of excess, like a girl from a wealthy family, dignified and self-possessed.
"Looking at the girl's behavior, it's pleasing to the eye, unlike me. My family always says I'm like a naughty monkey."
It seems like a joke, but in fact it is a test.
Different environments will shape different personalities, just like if a family is full of thieves, most of the children they raise will be thieves.
It is difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son. Often, the difference is not the economic level, but the knowledge brought by the capital.
The girl didn't seem to have a big appetite. She was full in a short while and put down her chopsticks. "My name is Wei Xi. What's your name, young lady?"
"Bai Qingyun."
Wei is the country's surname, and even Bai Qingyun himself didn't know it. There was a slight tremor in his voice.
Before the founding of the country, His Majesty only had his first wife and one son and one daughter. After the founding of the dynasty, His Majesty expanded the harem and his first wife was named the empress. Since ancient times, empresses have always been noble ladies from aristocratic families, but His Majesty's first wife was not one of them, so she naturally became the target of the aristocratic families. In the second year of His Majesty's accession to the throne, the empress died, and the Imperial Noble Consort was named the empress.
The Imperial Noble Consort was Chu Jingshu, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister Chu Yuan. The Chu family was the head of the aristocratic families, and the choice of the empress was undoubtedly made by the aristocratic family.
It is always difficult for a child to grow up without the protection of his mother. People often heard the news that the eldest prince was seriously ill. Although there were many concubines in the harem, only the queen and the imperial concubine were reported to be pregnant.
His Majesty's offspring died, even a fool would know that this was the work of the aristocratic family. But fate played tricks on them, the Empress gave birth to the second prince, and the Imperial Concubine gave birth to the second princess, who was Wei Xi!
The emperor was old, and court officials put pressure on him to appoint the second prince as the crown prince, but there was no immediate decision.
Until the flood in Jiangnan that year, the eldest prince asked for permission to go to Jiangnan to provide disaster relief. Naturally, the eldest prince, who had always been in medical treatment, suddenly asked for permission, which caused a stir among the court officials.
Disaster relief only requires escorting supplies to the disaster-stricken areas, and it can also win the hearts of the people in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a rare opportunity for the prince to make meritorious service. Moreover, the eldest prince is away, and His Majesty's protection can hardly reach such a far place. It is a good time to get rid of the eldest son.
The noble families wanted to have their cake and eat it too. They wanted to win a good reputation for the second prince and also take advantage of the situation to get rid of the eldest prince. As a result, they ordered the eldest prince and the second prince to go together.
As soon as the relief team arrived in Jiangnan, news spread that the eldest prince had been assassinated and seriously injured, but at the same time, news also spread to the capital that the second prince had been infected with the plague.
By the time the imperial physician arrived, the two princes had died one after another.
Your Majesty was deeply saddened and suspended court for three days.
Afterwards, the eldest prince was named Prince Yi and the second prince was named Prince Jing, and they were buried in the imperial mausoleum.
The eldest princess Wei Xuan lives in Huangguo Temple and prays for the two deceased princes.
The second princess Wei Xi became the only child to accompany His Majesty and was taught by His Majesty since childhood.
The Imperial Concubine's father is the only daughter of Duke Han Qi. The Han family followed Your Majesty to build the country, and after the founding of the dynasty, His Majesty conferred the title of Duke of Zhenguo on him, and the title has been hereditary for generations.
His Majesty intends to use the Han family to balance the aristocratic families. Of the two sons of the Han family, the eldest son was named the crown prince and served as the Shaoqing of the Dali Temple, and the second son was appointed as the General of Weibei and led the Han family army to guard the northwest.
Although the second princess is a princess, both His Majesty and her in-laws care about this child. It can be said that while she is loved, she also shoulders important responsibilities.
There was a gradual movement in the court to make the second princess the new empress, but there was also a lot of opposition.
Just as the two factions were arguing, news came out that the queen was pregnant. On the Lantern Festival of the following year, she gave birth to the third prince, Wei Chen. The calls for the empress gradually disappeared.
Counting the time, the second princess is seven years old this year. No wonder she was assassinated at such a young age, and no wonder she learned martial arts at such a young age.
Almost in the next second, Bai Qingyun immediately put down his chopsticks and knelt down, "I greet Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
There is a difference between the high and the low. Even if someone has saved your life, you still have to kneel before the princess.
Just as he bent down and prepared to salute, he was stopped by a pair of hands. "Miss Bai, I confessed my identity to you not just for this kneeling. I know my identity will bring danger to your family. I tell you the truth because I am grateful for your life-saving grace!"
Honestly, this is much easier!
"The princess is a noble woman, why would she end up living in the mountains?"
