Chapter 11 Making Soap
Thinking about the details of making soap, I don't know how long it took, I suddenly heard a knock on the door, and suddenly someone knocked on the door, Chen Siye was still a little unaccustomed, whether it was Cuiyun or Qiu Ju in the past two days, they were uninvited.
"Please come in." Chen Siye said seriously.
Cuiyun pushed the door in, gently put the food box on the table, walked to the side of the bed and asked with concern, "Xiao Yezi, are you okay, how do you feel?" ”
Although he couldn't bear to deceive Cuiyun, Chen Siye still struggled to get up a little contrivedly in order not to show his stuffing, "Thank you Sister Cuiyun for your concern, I'm fine, I'm just a little weak, and I'll be fine after sleeping." ”
"But this morning, Qiu Ju asked you to work, and it took you sweat and wind to get the wind chill?"
He was originally pretending, and how dare he put the responsibility on Qiu Ju, and hurriedly said: "It should be that he was hungry and cold when he came to Mingyue Tower two days ago, and he was full of food and clothing and relaxed in the past two days. It's not about Sister Qiu Ju. ”
Cuiyun was moved in her heart, what a good child, he was obviously abused by Qiu Ju, and he insisted that he was not. She was still suspicious of Chen Siye's taking advantage of her yesterday, and she would have completely believed that he didn't mean it.
"After eating, you can rest well, and you don't have to worry about other things."
Chen Siye was moved: "Sister Cuiyun, you are so good, I will definitely marry a woman like you in the future." ”
Cuiyun's heart jumped, and she almost heard that she was going to marry you, and blushed and said, "What nonsense, I am not feeling well and I am not happy." I'll go first. After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Chen Siye smiled secretly, sat at the table to eat, only to feel that his plan was perfect, he just wanted to complete the task, but he didn't expect that there would be an accident, it seems that he can sleep well tonight.
After eating, he cleaned up the mess on the table, and then continued to go to bed to raise the corpse. Suddenly there was no work to do, and I felt bored, and I remembered the days when I used to lie in bed and scroll through my phone.
"System, can you connect to the Internet in my original world, I want to go online."
"Yes, one point for one minute."
Chen Siye was taken aback, why didn't he grab it.
"Why is it so expensive?"
"Do you think it's that easy to connect two worlds?"
After thinking about it, I still forget it, now there are only 4 points, and if it is not enough, I will recreate it when there are more points in the future.
At this time, I heard the door squeak again, and Qiu Ju pushed the door in with a basket, but still didn't knock on the door. Chen Siye hurriedly struggled to get up, "Sister Qiu Ju give me the basket, and I'll wash the dishes." ”
When Qiu Ju heard this, she seemed to be relieved, and said leisurely: "You rest tonight, I'll come." As he spoke, he put away the dishes on the table and turned to leave.
After Qiu Ju left, she listened to nothing outside, and then stood up and made a set of colorful sunshine, this time the more she practiced, the hotter it became, and she was tired and sweaty, but she was embarrassed to go out to wash when she was pretending to be sick, so she had to go to bed. After thinking about it for a while, I gradually fell asleep.
I slept very well this night, no one came to disturb me, I slept until dawn and then woke up, stretched my waist, got up and played a set of colorful sunshine, only to feel that the strength in my body was not exhausted.
After washing up and coming to the kitchen, he happened to see that Qiu Ju seemed to have just finished washing the dishes, and seeing Qiu Ju helping him with his work, Chen Siye said early with some embarrassment. Seeing that he woke up, Qiu Ju said, "How do you feel?" Some, no. ”
"It's okay anymore, Sister Xie Qiuju cares." It's okay to pretend for one night, and if you pretend to be next, it will be embarrassing to ask the doctor to come back.
Qiu Ju nodded, and said to Nunu in the pot again: "I left you food, go eat it." Since it's okay, you can go buy food at noon. ”
Chen Siye nodded in agreement, slightly moved, if only Qiu Ju had been so gentle and considerate.
After eating, he walked around the front hall and backyard, there was no one in the front hall, no one told him to work and he didn't know what to do, Chen Siye decided to go to the city to buy things to make soap.
Coming out the back door, he walked down the path, and in a few moments he came to a main street. Today's weather is fine, the road is full of pedestrians, the cries are endless, and there is a prosperous scene. Chen Siye was dazzled, and he felt as if he had returned to the past. Jiangxia Mansion is worthy of being the provincial capital, and he is a little lost in the eight streets and nine mos, but he still bought the required materials smoothly. Vegetable oil is only rapeseed oil, and it is super expensive, only two catties of silver are bought.
During the period, he passed by a coffin shop, Chen Siye suddenly remembered the corpse he borrowed clothes, if he didn't have his clothes, he would have frozen to death, and after thinking for a while, he decided to find someone to bury him if he was okay in the afternoon.
Back in Mingyue Building, Chen Siye was ready to start making according to the soap-making method taught by the system, but when he did it, he found that because there were no measuring tools, he didn't know whether the alkalinity was up to standard, and he didn't know how many raw materials he needed to put in it.
Under the command of the system, the saponification reaction was successfully completed, and the whole process took two or three hours, tired and happy, after all, it was the first time to make handmade soap. Add some spices, milk, and a handful of plum blossoms picked in the backyard, and stir them well, and then it's done.
Pouring the soap into the wooden basin that had been oiled in advance, looking at the milky white liquid, Chen Siye was worried, after all, it would take a month, and he didn't know if it could be made into soap, so he could only seek comfort from the system: "It should be successful, right?" ”
"Don't worry, the native has said it many times, trust the native machine. Now you just have to wait for a day or two, pour it out and cut it into pieces after it has cured, and then put it in a dry place until it is ripe. "Sure enough, it is different after spending points, the service of the system is very good, and I took the trouble to explain it to him.
Holding the wooden basin under the bed, Chen Siye let out a sigh of relief, only then did he realize that his stomach was growling, and it was time to have lunch after a busy morning.
When I came to the front hall, I happened to meet Qiu Ju carrying the food box downstairs, and after taking the food box, Qiu Ju took out the silver, glanced at Chen Siye and said: "Don't bully the second child of the drunken Xiaolou anymore, tell me if you are short of silver." ”
Chen Siye was shocked in his heart, he was actually discovered, it must have been these two meals Cuiyun and Xiaochan went to buy food Xiao Er complained to them, but it was originally Xiao Er who was wrong first, and it was his own reason to say it. Nodding yes, he picked up the food box and walked out the door quickly.
When he came to Zuixiao Tower, Xiao Er suddenly became sad when he saw him again, but Chen Siye just had a cold face, and when Xiao Er helped him pack the food, he turned around and left after giving the silver. Xiao Er was surprised to see that he didn't do anything.
After lunch, it was still Qiu Ju who came to deliver the dishes, Chen Siye stepped forward and said with a shy face: "Sister Qiu Ju, is there something wrong in the afternoon?" ”
"Nothing, what's wrong?"
"Well, I want to go out of town in the afternoon to run some errands."
"What are you doing?"
Chen Siye said in his heart that this matter was nothing, and there was no need to keep it secret, so he thought about it and said: "The night before yesterday, I was sheltering from the snow in a thatched hut outside the city, and I saw a dead man, but it was too cold, so I borrowed his clothes. ”
Qiu Ju glanced at him strangely, and said that he was quite conscientious, so he responded: "Then you go, remember not to cause trouble." ”
Seeing Qiu Ju's refreshment, Chen Siye was also very happy. At that time, since I said that I would be responsible when I picked up other people's clothes, I should be responsible to the end, and it is better to be a man from the beginning to the end.
I didn't pay attention to washing the dishes before, but today I found out that in addition to those big bowls and plates, there are only four sets of dishes, spoons and chopsticks with him, Chen Siye secretly said Why are there three sets less, and the three of them are eating with their hands? Thinking of this, I couldn't help complaining, and I came for two or three days, and I didn't see any of them, and I ate and drank Lazar all upstairs.
After finishing the work, Chen Siye took the more than two taels of silver left over from the soap materials he bought in the morning, and walked towards the coffin shop he saw in the morning.
When he came to the door of the coffin shop, the shopkeeper greeted him warmly, "What do you need, guest officer?" ”
"How much is the cheapest package in your store?"
"Package?"
Chen Siye was embarrassed, and said a modern word casually, explaining: "It's that I want to ask you to bury someone, the cheaper the better, the kind you have all-inclusive." ”
The smile on the shopkeeper's face narrowed a little, and asked, "I don't know who this person's surname is, it's the guest officer..."
"I don't know either, I accidentally saw him outside the city, and I can't bear his violent corpse in the wilderness, so I ask you to go and let him be buried in the ground."
"Where's out of the city?"
"Not far downstream of the river, there are a few thatched huts, and they are in that thatched hut." Chen Siye did not come in vain in the past two days, and he already had a preliminary understanding of the surrounding environment of Jiangxia Mansion.
The shopkeeper frowned and thought for a moment and said, "You have a good heart, but the cheapest is two taels of silver." ”
Chen Siye exclaimed: "Two taels of silver? Why is it so expensive? And how much is it in the city? ”
"It's only one or two in the city," the shopkeeper smiled bitterly and explained: "The guest official doesn't know anything, but the lord of the mansion has an order, and anyone in this Jiangxia Mansion who unfortunately dies must report it to the government to know, and those who do our business must abide by it." It's good to have a name and a surname, if you don't know the name, you need to go to the yamen to ask a catcher to follow and verify the identity, there is no money in the city, and if you go out of the city, you will have to add one or two silver errand money. ”
Chen Siye said disapprerovingly: "Can you find out who it is by catching and following quickly?" ”
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Otherwise, let's just see if it's wanted." ”
There's no way, it's expensive, it's expensive, I'm here, I took out two taels of silver and asked, "When will you go?" ”
After receiving the cashier, the owner of the shop immediately smiled, "Let's go and ask the catcher to come over, you wait a while." But I have to tell you in advance, if the arrested master sees that there is something wrong with this corpse, the money will not be refunded. ”
Chen Siye waved his hand impatiently: "I know, I know." "How can you come across a wanted criminal so casually? No way.
