This paper can be made by ordinary people without the help of machinery and equipment. This is not nonsense, in ancient times, there was no equipment to make paper for so many years.

I remember that there was a small video of making pen, ink, paper and inkstone, that video was very beautiful, wearing ancient costumes, slender figures, and delicate young women performing the production process of paper, ink, pen and inkstone, the picture was fresh, simple and textured. The entire plot is set in ancient times, without the use of modern tools.

Zhao Lan remembered that she had read it several times at that time, and she also collected it, thinking that she would give it a try if she could.

This is conditional!

This papermaking video looks simple, after reclaiming, soaking, cooking, washing, drying, beating, scooping, drying, baking, and finally molding.

This can be reclaimed, cooked, beaten, and scooped paper. It's really hard to do! No tools, no strength.

First of all, this material, using bamboo raw materials, I guess I can't do this small body. To make raw materials for bamboo, you must first cut off the bamboo, then peel off the skin, and then break up the bamboo and cut it into the same length. Without help me, I can't really do this process.

However, remember that the video used tree bark. At that time, I checked the information, and it seemed that rice stalks could be used as raw materials.

There are no rice stalks, and it will take about a month. Then you have to experiment with the bark first.

It's easy to look at, it's easy to think about, but it's hard to do!

It's not easy to get the bark alone, and you can't pick the bark with your bare hands without the tools you can take advantage of!

Tools are really a problem, but Zhao Dazhuang can't do it, so he can only sigh. I don't know how the little shovel did last time, and Zhao Lan has been thinking about it in her heart.

The next night, the next morning, Zhao Shen handed Zhao Lan a small shovel.

Whatever you want? Of course not.

Yesterday, Zhao Shen was so excited that Zhao Dazhuang asked her to bring back the little shovel to Zhao Lan and forgot all about it.

This morning, when I saw Zhao Lan watering the rows of flowers, I suddenly remembered the shovel. Yesterday, before leaving, the child and his father stuffed a small shovel for her, saying that it was Zhao Lan's last time, and now that it is done, she asked herself to bring it back to Zhao Lan.

Zhao Shen was full of emotion, and said to himself: "I really got carried away, I forgot about such a thing." ”

"Is such a small shovel useful?" Zhao Shen handed over the small shovel and asked Zhao Lan curiously. It's so small, what can a slap dig up! Zhao Shen thought to himself.

Zhao Lan happily took it and looked at it, nodded hurriedly and said, "It's easy to use, you see that I use it, it's very convenient." ”

This small shovel is still a little different from the modern one, Zhao Dazhuang is a little thick, the head is straight, there is no pointed head, but the front is thin, it seems to be quite sharp, and the middle is also a little concave, but the amplitude is too small, and it is estimated that there is not much soil to shovel on it.

Overall, qualified.

It just so happens that zinnias and petunias are not sown evenly, and in some places they are so dense that some need to be removed, and what was originally intended to be left is now much easier to replant with a small shovel. The ground has just been watered, and pulling out the seedlings does not hurt the roots, and the ones that are not easy to pull out will come out with a small shovel, and Zhao Lan squatted there for a while and pulled out a handful.

Zhao Lan took a shovel and flower seedlings to the courtyard wall. Put down the flower seedlings, dig a pit with a small shovel against the wall, the height of the small shovel is just right, the pit dug is not shallow or deep, plant a flower seedling in a pit, and rake the soil. After a while, half a circle of flower seedlings was planted around the courtyard wall.

After squatting for a long time, her waist was really unbearable, so Zhao Lan stood up after planting and straightened her waist. I thought to myself, it would be nice if there were flowers and plants that were higher than the moon season or taller, so that they would be more staggered than just planting short grass and flowers.

Zhao Shen stared blankly for a long time. Planted so quickly? This large half circle of courtyard walls was planted in less than half an hour, and there was no need to stand up and squat, toss back and forth, and there was no need for two people to cooperate with each other.

"Mother, you haven't left yet?"

Zhao Shen's eyes, who were awakened by Zhao Lan's shout, swept up and down back and forth, holding a small shovel and Zhao Lan with mud on his hands.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Lan knew in her heart that something was wrong with the little shovel. But I can't help it, I want to use it, how can I grow flowers without a small shovel.

Zhao Shen opened his mouth and asked, "So fast?" How could it be so fast? No, how is it like this? How did you come up with it? ”

Zhao Shen didn't know how to express it, Zhao Lan knew, Zhao Shen wanted to know, how did Zhao Lan come up with it, and how did he know that this little shovel was used like this, and how was it so efficient? This is all plagiarized by Zhao Lan, how can there be so many whys, we never feel surprised when we see that it is like this, because it is like this!

Zhao Lan still made up a reason: "The shovel at home is too big, you can plant trees, small flower seedlings are inconvenient, this small one is just right for me to plant such small flower seedlings, isn't it?" ”

"Oh! That's right, too! Zhao Shen replied woodenly.

That's right! Use big ones for big trees, and small ones for small seedlings.

But why didn't anyone think of it in the first place?

Zhao Lan looked at Zhao Shen still frowning, still struggling with the question of the little shovel, and hurriedly interrupted: "Mother, is breakfast cooked?" ”

"Breakfast?" The topic jumped too fast, Zhao Shen didn't react for a while, and asked rhetorically.

"Yes, breakfast hasn't been cooked yet, look at me, what's going on in the past two days. Forget about the West. After Zhao Shen finished speaking, he walked in the royal house. As he walked, he said, "That spade ......"

This spade, Zhao Lan can't say it, anyway, I know that there is this spade, why you don't have it, I don't know.

After planting the seedlings, you still need to water them. Zhao Shen cooked, and Zhao Lan went to the river to carry water and water the flowers. There was not much water at home, so I had to go to the river to carry water and exercise my arm strength by the way. I don't know if hunting is fun, and I don't know if there are really people who can fly the eaves and walk the wall. Somehow, Zhao Lan had such a strange idea in her heart.

But the paper hasn't been tried yet, and it's the same. Prepare for papermaking in the afternoon? Zhao Lan asked herself.

"Hey! Who do I say? It turned out to be the dumb Zhao Lan! ”

Zhao Lan, who was thinking about a better future, was interrupted by a snarky voice, and when she looked up, Liu Er.

This mushroom is dressed in red and green, with one hand on his waist, his nostrils facing the sky, and he said to Zhao Lan domineeringly: "I said that Huzi doesn't like you, you see, Huzi is going to marry me." It's useless for you to please Chun Tao, don't look at Chun Tao's big swagger, she won't be used by you, you don't know who you can marry. ”

This mushroom is stupid, run to me to show off, I'm not rare at all, okay. Huzi, a man who does things irresponsibly, who marries and who is unlucky, thinks he has picked up a treasure. You better watch your belly! Zhao Lan glanced at her stomach, ignored her, and walked around her.

"Haha, it's possible that no one wants to marry you, I used to treat myself as a young lady, so I don't have to come out to carry water to work. You're poor! Liu Er followed behind and continued to speak badly.

Zhao Lan comforted herself: That's a crazy person, you can't mess with it. I can't afford to provoke it, I can't hide it. You don't value what is in your stomach, we can't harm people's lives!

Zhao Lan glanced at her stomach again, and silently thought in her heart, I endure, I endure, my belly can accommodate everything that can be tolerated, and my prime minister's belly can support the boat.

"Don't think that your family has a little money, it's amazing, your father is a shirtless ironworker, no woman can look up to it, you still think you're a daughter, I'm sorry!"

I don't care about you as a pregnant woman. You also don't toss less, just saved a life, don't toss and lose. Zhao Lan squinted at her stomach again.

"Look at what, I'm pregnant with a tiger seed, a man! You can't be envious. ”

I'll go, the ancients were so open! This unmarried pregnancy is not only proud, but also talks about it everywhere. Am I being too old-fashioned?

Looking at Zhao Lan's incredible eyes, this Liu Er is even more incredible.

"Don't be jealous, the blind man said, I am a blessed man, whose family I marry into, whose family is blessed. You are not blessed with this. ”

Whoever you marry is blessed, I see whose family is convinced, just your temperament. I'm still dumb to say it, more true.

Zhao Lan was also not happy to listen to her nonsense, so she ran away with a bucket. I'm flashing! Am I still not good at flashing? Zhao Lan's speed is absolute. It's definitely faster than a rabbit running, and it's not for nothing to get up early to exercise these days.

Yuan He, who had just heard the voice and was about to come, opened the door and saw a figure flying in front of him. Zhao Lan's fair and round face with a playful smile flashed in front of her eyes but stayed in her heart.

Liu Er's angry voice behind him failed to make Yuanhe turn his face and take a look.

The locust tree at the east end of the village also shook, and there seemed to be a figure flashing by, and no one noticed.

Zhao Lan took the water and went home. I scolded Liu Er in my heart, because this road is far and difficult to walk, and I don't feel it when I usually walk, mainly because I am carrying half a bucket of water today.

Why not a bucket, because it can't be carried.

After carrying this bucket, Zhao Lan didn't go again, she really didn't want to see Liu'er who had her head filled with water. Zhao Lan used the water stored at home, and Zhao Shen went to fetch water.

In the afternoon, after eating, Zhao Lan planned to go around the hillock, planning to take the first step of papermaking, taking the bark.

There are also many trees on the hillock, but they are not too big, and the size of the trees does not affect Zhao Lan.

Zhao Lan picked a thick tree and began to peel the bark, the kitchen knife seemed to be easier to get, but the angle problem, the depth problem, and the hand strength problem made Zhao Lan's head big.

Fortunately, Zhao Lan just wanted to experiment first, and there were not many materials, so she used a kitchen knife and a small sickle to get a little bark. Zhao Lan, who had never worked, had blisters on her hands. I really have nothing to do.

It's just that there's nothing to do. Zhao Lan can't play in the alley with children all day long like Zhao Ju, but she can only find something to do.

The bark was made, and it was put into a lump and soaked in the pond.

This first step is over, and the next step will be ten days later, remember, the bark is about ten days to soak. What kind of purpose to achieve, Zhao Lan does not understand. Just follow the steps, as long as the steps are good and the details are not left behind, the possibility of success is still full.

The things you need for the next steps need to be carefully considered, otherwise it will be really difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.
