After taking a bath and lying in the warm quilt, Chu Ying felt better. "Don't sleep yet, drink some ginger soup, and I'll call you when we eat."

Chu Ying drank the ginger soup and fell asleep, but did she feel that there was a fragrance teasing her, she opened her eyes and felt dizzy and heavy, and her limbs were weak, but she still wore an extra autumn coat before going out.

"How's it going, are you getting better? Although it's almost summer, but you can't walk back from the lake so wet, drink some fish and ulva soup first, this dish in the soup is best to use Ulva cabbage, now the Ulva in April is the most tender, called pheasant Ulva is the first fat. ”

"That's the other

Can you still eat it in a few months? Chu Ying took a sip of the soup first, the lettuce in it was light and sweet, and the fish was smooth and delicious.

"Yes, when the leaves are full, it is called Ulva sylvestris, and it is used in May and June, and it cannot be eaten in July, there will be a kind of snail on it, and it is not good to eat it."

"Only eat for 3 months?" This delicious dish only has a three-month consumption period, which is too short, and Chu Ying ate the cake while drinking the soup.

"No, the insects freeze to death in October and can be eaten until March of the following year, only the root stubble above the root and under the silk ulva, you see what you pick, is the part you eat after October. With the above paragraph, the deeper the picking, the more bitter. ”

You can't eat it for only three months of the year, but this lettuce is excellent. "Well, I'll plant them tomorrow."

"You're going to plant it? Then you have to pick a new seed, or put it in the water, or you will die tomorrow, and the plant will not live. When Chu Ying heard that she was going to plant today, she hurriedly bit the cake and went to the lake with a torch made of pine tree segments.

"What are you doing? Don't go into the water, you're not in good health, and you don't know how to be watery, I'll come. Ye Qiu pulled up his trouser legs, slowly went down from the shallower place next to him, and used his toes to hold the stalks of the lettuce or press it into the mud, and a pot of lettuce was not planted until it was dark.

The torches held by Chu Ying were all changed to three, and Ye Qiu, who climbed up, also had wrinkled toes. "Let's go roast the fire, the skin is crumpled." Chu Ying helped Ye Qiu, who was a little unsteady on his feet, to go to the well to wash first.

"It's the same when you pick it today, in fact, there are many in the lake, and it's not in the way to pick it yourself, it's too tossing back and forth, and your body can't stand it."

"It's okay, we don't have many varieties, just plant them in these places next to them, plus those reeds and cattails, the fish in the water are also a little angry, and they won't die so easily."

"Okay, you can also wash up a little and go to bed first, it's been a day." Chu Ying lay down after washing, and after dinner, he was a little more energetic, but he still had a little runny nose. Chu Ying took some paper and put it aside, rubbing the paper a little softer, otherwise her nose would be red.

Chu Ying got up early the next day and carried another 40 catties of pine resin to the pharmacy, and asked where to collect raw lacquer by the way.

"Grandpa Wen, I'm here again. cough ......" Chu Ying covered her mouth and coughed lightly.

"What's wrong? Yesterday was fine. Ah Fu, you go and weigh it. Come sit down and I'll see. Grandpa Wen touched Chu Ying's pulse.

"It's okay, I'm just cold."

"Cold? You are infected with the wind cold, and your body is a little better, so you are so unrespectful, why did you go yesterday? "Grandpa Wen hastily wrote a few herbs and handed them to the medicine boy, half of this wind and cold don't take medicine, and he will get better by himself in a few days, but Chu Ying's body is weak and can't be delayed, so it's better to be cured early.

"No, I just played with the water for a while. It will be fine in a few days. Chu Ying waved her hand again and again, Chu Ying didn't dare to spend money on this little illness.

"It's okay, it doesn't take much money, it's given to you, you are weak, you can't be dragged out if you are sick, and it's not good to drag your old illness out by dragging it out." Grandpa Wen put three pairs of medicines and 1 tael, 6 money, and 80 Wen in Chu Ying's back basket and covered it with a burlap.

"Okay, then thank you, next time I send it, I'll send it in a few days when I save more, Grandpa Wen, do you know where to collect raw paint?"

"There are more lacquer houses used, you go to sell wood to see, maybe there is a harvest, lacquer waterproofing, and there is more shipbuilding, but shipbuilding has to go to another city, and there are many shipyards in Linghai City to the east, but it is too far."

"Okay, thanks, I'll ask." Chu Ying went to the market and asked, and he also sold wood by the way, but ordinary people don't use lacquer, and the slightly richer ones will use lacquer to make the wood look brighter, and there are more wooden utensils such as wooden pots and bowls.

The price is also in the range of 80 Wen to 90 Wen a catty, this lacquer is indeed not as much as the output of pine resin, pine resin can also be cut down trees and heated to obtain pine resin, but the raw lacquer can only be cut and slowly wait for it to flow down by itself.

Just like Chu Ying has only collected 10 catties until now, Chu Ying first went to Qin Zhong to buy rice, these days I am really tired of eating cakes, I am fine, I have lived in the north for a period of time before, Ye Qiu is always difficult to swallow, after all, he is a child who is used to eating rice.

"I'm in the city again today, what do you want to buy?" Qin Zhong wrote down the things he had just sold on paper, and now it seems that there are no wire-bound books in this era, and Qin Zhong is folded and piled up in a box one by one.

"You make holes in the paper and thread it with a needle, wouldn't it be good, a little looser, and it will be easier to consult." Chu Ying turned her back to Qin Zhong and stuck her hand in the rice to play.

"That's a good idea. Don't play with rice. Chu Ying had no choice but to take her hand back, and she couldn't tell the difference between good and bad, but the price should naturally be better, but I don't know what will happen in the future, or it can't be too luxurious, Chu Ying bought slightly better rice.

4 Wen a catty bought a total of 30 catties to spend 1 coin 20 Wen, Chu Ying still didn't buy too much recently, or she was tired and sick.

"Sneeze ......" Chu Ying blew her snot on a small piece of paper and threw it into a small pile of fruit peels on the side of the street, which was cleaned every day. In fact, Ye Qiu made himself a fine linen cloth, but Chu Ying still couldn't stand the front and the back.

"Why do you wipe your nose with paper, do you have money to squander like this now?" Chu Ying looked at Qin Zhong's face with anger, and hurriedly showed her handwritten paper to Qin Zhong.

"It's not the kind of paper you write on, this one I made myself, it's smaller, thinner and softer than the one you write."

Qin Zhong took one and looked at it, and sure enough, it was a little different from the paper he wrote, "You can still make paper, but it's still too indecent to use paper to wipe your nose, I have a handkerchief here, you can use it first." ”

Chu Ying pushed the handkerchief back, "I have it, but it's too troublesome to wash, and this hand paper can also be used when going to the toilet, it is not as troublesome as making writing paper, and it can only be made into small paper, which is just used for toilet and daily use." ”

Gang Qin Zhong was already a little displeased, and now he looked at Chu Ying like a monster. "How can paper be used to go to the toilet? This is really disrespectful. ”

The concept is the most deep-rooted, and Chu Ying can't make Qin Zhong and others accept this thing at once, so she took out some fingers and put them on Qin Zhong's table.

"Try it, how can it be disrespectful if there is no writing on this paper. I'll go first. "Qin Zhong usually seems to have a strong ability to accept new things, but in this era when everyone uses toilets, his thoughts are indeed a little weird.
