After wearing the book, I farmed and raised children and became the emperor

These days, people from the He family have been coming to the door one after another, wanting to invite Shao Qingyi to hold the spoon for a banquet.

Shao Qingyi declined all of them.

After several rounds, everyone also knew that Mr. He Jiafulang did not intend to make this his main business, and naturally fewer people came to him.

He Changji built the kiln without telling Shao Qingyi, but the prototype of the kiln has come out, how could Shao Qingyi not guess what He Changji is going to do?

"Why did you suddenly think of making this for me?" Shao Qingyi had forgotten what she said to the children before, and she couldn't help asking curiously after realizing that He Changji was actually making an oven for herself.

"The children told me." He Changji was doing the final decoration work, "I don't know if this suits your wishes."

"Of course I like what you made." Shao Qingyi said sweetly, "Tomorrow I will make real baked cookies for you and the children."

"Okay." He Changji also looked forward to it.

After that, they went to Zheng's house again.

Shao Qingyi discussed the copyright issue of the Rubik's Cube with Mr. Zheng, and Mr. Zheng never expected that he would be able to collect copyright fees for the things he made according to Shao Qingyi's ideas.

He readily agreed to the authorization, but there is only one request, that is, if there are new products in the future, they should still be given priority to production by the Zheng family.

Shao Qingyi naturally agreed.

The next day, the kiln built in the yard was completely solidified, and Shao Qingyi also began to use it for the first time.

This kiln is a structure that fires at the bottom and bakes at the top.

Shao Qingyi asked He Changji to help light the fire, while she kneaded the noodles, crisped them, and sliced ​​them.

In order to make the biscuits have a familiar taste, Shao Qingyi spent a lot of time and energy making homemade butter.

I went to Hu's shop to buy eggs, and went to Lao Yang's to buy fresh cow's milk. I stirred it desperately with a pair of chopsticks, and finally made butter.

All kinds of bitterness are not enough, in short, Shao Qingyi has prepared all the materials for making biscuits, and now it is finally time to test the results.

"Father, mother, the kiln has been burning for a long time!" Cheng Ping rushed into the house impatiently, "When can we bake biscuits?"

"It's almost there." Shao Qingyi said while putting the cut biscuit slices on the ceramic baking tray one at a time.

This baking tray was made by Shao Qingyi, relying on his current relationship with the Chen family, secretly asking Chen Keyan to jump in line to make it.

After everything was placed, Shao Qingyi went out with two baking trays, went to the yard, and sent the baking trays into the kiln oven with a flat wooden shovel.

"Is it okay to just wait like this?" Cheng An asked curiously.

"Yes, turn off the fire and just wait." Shao Qingyi said with a smile.

He Changji started a new job again.

The double bed that was moved out before took up a lot of space in the yard. He simply dismantled the bed and planned to build a shed in the west yard. In the future, the family can eat, chat and rest in the shed.

Shao Qingyi was busy playing with her own work, and also followed to help.

Naturally, the two children would not miss this opportunity to work with their parents.

After a while, Shao Qingyi stopped what she was doing, wiped her hands, and was about to check the condition of the biscuits.

The two children couldn't wait to follow behind Mu's father, like two little tails.

Shao Qingyi opened the small wooden door of the kiln and took out the two baking trays with a wooden shovel.

"It smells so good~" the children praised in unison.

Shao Qingyi smelled the strong smell of milk, and felt better: "Go, go to the house to eat biscuits. Tell your father to come over too. I made tea, and everyone rested for a while."

"Okay~" The children responded cheerfully, and then ran over and shouted, "Daddy, daddy, let's eat biscuits!"

He Changji heard the words, and responded: "Understood, wait for me to finish the work at hand."

"Then hurry up!" The two children replied, and then bounced back to the house.

Shao Qingyi had already taken out four teacups and made tea.

Cheng Ping and Cheng An surrounded the table, one person occupied one side, and then picked up a small biscuit that was still warm and ate it.

The soft and sweet taste brightened the eyes of Cheng An, who already had a sweet tooth.

Although Cheng Ping prefers to eat meat, who can not love the fragrant and sweet biscuits?

Eating a small biscuit and drinking a sip of fragrant black tea is such a pleasant life.

He Changji finished the work at hand and entered the house.

He has no sense of this kind of fragrant and sweet biscuits, but it is a happy event that the kiln that he has worked hard for a few days can play its role perfectly.

Shao Qingyi also ate a piece. Although it has gone through hardships, the final product is no different from the one baked in a modern oven. It can be said to be very successful.

"After the wooden shed is built, we can go to the wooden shed to eat small biscuits." Shao Qingyi couldn't help thinking about her future life.

"We can plant another grape, which can cover the roof and shade the sun." He Changji also said.

"Grape, I heard that grapes attract snakes." Shao Qingyi was quite afraid of snakes, and he shuddered at the thought of this possibility, "Otherwise, plant wisteria? When the wisteria is in season, there will be a large waterfall of wisteria flowers here." , Think about it, it's beautiful!"

"It's okay." He Changji also thought seriously, "I remember that a wisteria flower was planted in the backyard of Dr. Li's hospital. There should be pods these days. I'll ask for some tomorrow."

"Okay, it just so happens that it's time for another review." Shao Qingyi nodded.

After eating the biscuits, the family started to get busy again.

In one afternoon, the wooden shed finally took shape.

The next day, the He family went to the hospital together.

Dr. Li checked He Changji's leg injury and said that He Changji is recovering very well, and he only needs to rest for another month to fully recover.

The news made the whole family very happy.

Afterwards, He Changji asked Dr. Li for some wisteria flower pods, and Dr. Li gave them readily.

The family happily returned home with newly prepared medicine and wisteria flower pods, and continued the unfinished work of building the wooden shed.

After another busy day, the wooden shed was built.

He Changji buried two to three wisteria seeds next to each of the pillars. Next spring, these seeds will germinate, and after a few more years, they will grow into big guys with strong branches.

A wooden table and several wicker chairs were placed under the wooden shed.

In order to avoid being wet by rain, they made a double roof.

The top tier is for climbing vines, while the lower tier is covered with a waterproof palm-leaf canopy.

After the wooden shed was completed, Shao Qingyi started to fiddle with new things.

Since the first floor of Ping'an Grocery Store is going to be turned into a small supermarket, the types of goods in it will naturally be more diverse.

Modern supermarkets include all kinds of commodities for food and clothing. Shao Qingyi does not expect her own small store to reach that level, but at least food, clothing and entertainment must be involved.

Now, when we have food and entertainment, we need to use it.

So he immediately became a must-have good thing for home travel-soap.

People in this world use saponins, a natural detergent.

It's fine for washing hair or something, but for washing clothes... just not as strong as soap.

Soap is simple to make, cheap and easy to use, easy to carry and clean, it is a must-have item on the shelves of supermarkets.

It's a pity that the first step of making this little soap put Shao Qingyi in a difficult situation.

From what little chemistry he had left, he recalled that soap was made from sodium hydroxide and oil.

Grease is easy, sodium hydroxide is too difficult.

He took a piece of paper and deduced the chemical equation on the paper, and pushed him to give up this idea.

Or use the most primitive material - plant ash!

This is much easier to obtain than sodium hydroxide.

There was a lot of plant ash under the stove, Shao Qingyi scooped it into the bucket with a shovel, then added water, stirred it, and let it stand still.

After the water in the upper layer became clear, Shao Qingyi poured it into a pot and heated it on the stove.

Then add the lard you bought.

Add some salt.

Well, a pot of broth is enough...

Ah bah, no, no, the rudimentary form of soap is there.

Then find a mold, pour the liquid in the pot into the mold, wait until it cools and solidifies, and you can get soap!

Shao Qingyi had seen this production method out of curiosity before, but had never actually operated it.

Today is his first try.

Judging from the results so far, it seems to be relatively successful.

However, the soap produced in this way has no taste. If you want to use it for bathing or the like, it is best to add some essential oils to taste.

The extraction of essential oils is relatively simple.

As long as there are suitable extraction tools and heating at an appropriate temperature, essential oils can be extracted from flowers and plants.

So... the difficulty lies in refining the tools.

Shao Qingyi showed a wry smile, whose essential oil extraction started from the design of extraction tools?

But this can't be helped, who made the technology here only reach the current level?

Shao Qingyi resigned herself to designing essential oil extraction tools.

While imagining and designing, Shao Qingyi also asked He Changji which one in the village made bronze wares.

"As for bronze ware, the Fan family specializes in making bronze ware." He Changji answered while asking, "What is this used for?"

"This is for extracting essential oils." Shao Qingyi said, showing her design drawing to He Changji, "Look, this is for heating, here is a partition with holes, this is for water and The entrance of the raw material. Pour it in first, and then stuff the flowers and plants to be extracted. Heat it with firewood, and then the water vapor will carry the extracted essential oil along this pipe to this side, where you can add Cold water, for condensation. This is how you get the essential oils!"

Shao Qingyi explained to He Changji excitedly.

He Changji: ...Although I understand every word, I am confused when put together.

"That's right." He Changji nodded, pretending to understand.

Shao Qingyi, who was immersed in her own world, didn't realize that He Changji was pretending to understand. He continued to mutter: "Add an open tube here, and then just put the bottle underneath to pick it up. There is still a little more to do." If it is larger, the oil yield of essential oil is not high, and it is estimated that a lot of raw materials will be used.”

He Changji looked at Shao Qingyi who was working hard, and couldn't help raising his hand to stroke his soft hair.

"Ah? What's the matter?" Shao Qingyi, who was still immersed in the design, looked up at He Changji blankly, her big black and bright eyes were as clear as a newborn deer.

"It's okay, I just want to touch you." He Changji smiled.

Suddenly, Shao Qingyi's face gradually turned red, and she said angrily, "What are you doing, I'm working right now!"
