Chapter 251: Snowflake Paper
The summer rain comes and goes as fast as it comes, and after the rainstorm, the sky clears up, and a rainbow hangs on the horizon.
After the three of them avoided a cloud and rain, it was already noon when they rushed home.
The Wu family and the Wang family were in a hurry at home, and Wen Ran's eyes were also red.
When Wu saw Wen Jiarui coming back, he immediately said: "Child, his father, Sister Xin and Cicada Yi went up the mountain to pick mushrooms this morning and haven't come back yet!" It's raining heavily, will something happen? I've gone up to Heping to lead people up the mountain to look for me, but I haven't come back yet. ”
Wen Jiarui heard this and immediately said, "I'll go up the mountain to find it." ”
Warmth: "I'll go too." ”
Nalan Jinnian twisted his eyebrows: "Sister Nuan, don't go, it has just rained heavily, and the trees on the mountain are rainy, and your clothes are easy to catch the wind chill if they get wet." I'm familiar with the mountains, so I'll just accompany Uncle Wen! ”
After speaking, he comforted the Wu family again: "Aunt Wu don't worry, bring Big Gray and Little Black, and find someone soon." ”
Big Gray nodded and wagged his tail: I'll go find it!
Xiao Hei also nodded: Looking for someone on the mountain, I am the best!
Xiaobai ran to Big Gray's side, indicating that he was also going to follow to find someone.
Big Ash licked its head: Good, there is a lot of rain in the mountains, stay at home!
"Okay, Sister Nuan, don't go, without further ado, seventeen, let's hurry up the mountain!"
Accidents in the mountains can be big or small.
Wen Jiarui was a little anxious.
Warm but not afraid: "It's okay, I know some medical skills, go and see." ”
Big Ash ran to the warmth and let her sit on top of him.
Nalan Jinnian pinched her eyebrows, knowing that she couldn't stop her, so she didn't say anything.
When he went out, he took a flat pole and a robe in the corner, and put it on warmly.
He was going to knock down the drops of water from the leaves of the plants on the mountain.
Several people hurriedly walked to the back mountain, but they didn't expect to meet Lin Tingxuan at the foot of the mountain and go down the mountain with warmth on his back.
They were also followed by Cicada Yi, He Ping, Feng An and Feng Xiaojian.
Wen Jiarui breathed a sigh of relief, but seeing that Wen Wen was covered in mud, he said worriedly: "Sister Xin, what's wrong with you?" Fell off the hill? ”
Nuan found that her exposed ankle was a little red and swollen: "Twisted your foot?" ”
Wen Wen nodded: "Seeing that it was raining, I wanted to hurry down the mountain, but I ran a little hurriedly, and accidentally slipped and twisted my foot." Fortunately, Lin Gongzi found me and saved me. ”
Lying on Lin Tingxuan's back, his face was a little red.
Wen Jiarui hurriedly said: "Lin Gongzi, thank you, I'll carry it!" ”
"Yes, Master Wen doesn't have to be polite, I'll ......" Lin Tingxuan wanted to say no, their bodies were all wet, so as not to wet his clothes again, but thinking that there was a difference between men and women, he carried people back to the village, which might affect Miss Wen's reputation, so he changed his words and said: "Okay." ”
After saying that, he bent his knees, so that he could go down to the ground warmly.
"Second sister, you sit on the back of the big gray and go home!" Warmth came down from the wolf's back.
"Okay." Wen Wen was embarrassed to continue to let Lin Tingxuan carry it.
Nuan and Wen Jiarui sat on the back of Da Ash with Wen Wen.
The group hurried home.

After Wen Wen Wen treated his foot injury, Aster came in with a bowl of ginger soup.
"Second girl, drink some ginger soup to drive away the cold." Although it was summer, even if he was wet, he didn't feel cold, but Wu still went to cook ginger soup.
Wen Wen took it and was about to drink it, but she thought of something to do: "Lin Gongzi, do they have ginger soup?" ”
"Second girl, don't worry! It's all there! ”
Wen Wen was relieved to hear this, lowered his head and was about to drink, but he thought of something and raised his head and asked: "Lin Gongzi went up the mountain to find me in the rain, his clothes are wet, do you have any clothes to change?" ”
"It's been changed, and it's the master who gave him a new set of clothes. However, he was taller than the old man, and his clothes were a little shorter. His clothes have been washed and dried. ”
Wen Wen imagined that and smiled: "That's good!" It's better than wearing wet clothes. ”
Seeing that Wen Wen had no questions to ask, Aster retreated.
Wen Wen drank half of the ginger soup, thought of something and said to Nuan: "Sister Nuan, I want to practice martial arts tomorrow." ”
looked at her with a warm smile: "Second sister, didn't you say you wouldn't practice?" ”
Wen Wen avoided the warm gaze, his face was a little red, and he stammered: "That's it, I just think it's good to practice!" ”
Warm laughed: "It's good!" But I'm afraid not tomorrow. ”
Wen Wen was stunned: "Why not?" ”
Warmth: "Will your feet be healed tomorrow?" Second sister, why are you so impatient? ”
Warm: "......"
She couldn't wait!!
How's that!

The next day, Wen Jiarui asked a few villagers to cut down trees and bamboo. The tree is cut down and buried in the soil, and the next year it grows new bark.
Wen Jiarui was worried that it would not be enough, so he asked people to plant some trees on the mountain.
Warmth is not worried, there are many materials for papermaking, and there are records in the book: "Shu people use hemp, Fujian people use bamboo, northern people use mulberry bark, Yanxi uses rattan, Hai people use moss, Zhejiang people use wheat flour rice stalks, Wu people use cocoons, and Chu people use Zhen." "So don't worry about running out of materials.
But planting trees is a good thing, and she supports it.
Chopping bamboos and branches is not very technical, and Nuan demonstrated how to peel off the bark of the tree and remove the black skin on the surface.
Then tie them up in a bundle and soak them in a river or pond.
After the warm confession, he and Wen Jiamei went to Wujia Village to fire ceramics.
In the past few days, the two have made a lot of porcelain tires, and they have completed the most critical step, and they can be fired after coloring.
Nearly 20 days have passed in a flash, warm every day two runs, go to Wujia Village during the day, come back in the evening to point out the thunder Wanyun, Lin Tingxuan and others martial arts, during which the bark is soaked in the river softly, then start steaming, before steaming, the bark has to go through the lime pond once, and then continue to cook for six or seven days!
The better and whiter the paper, the longer it takes to steam, and the more times it is rinsed.
It takes nearly a month to make a piece of paper, and it is not unreasonable to be expensive.
After six key steps, including bleaching in the same pond - boiling and wandering - scheming - making pulp - swinging into the curtain - dry roasting, the first snowflake paper of Wen's paper industry finally came out!
Because it is three points whiter than the paper on the market, it is named snowflake paper.
Nalan Jinnian stood beside Wen Wen and peeled off the paper on the fire wall with her.
He gently twisted the paper with his good-looking fingertips: tough, white, soft, smooth.
"Not bad."
Wen Jiarui lightly touched the surface of the paper: "This paper is so good, better than the white cotton paper of the Tang family and the white paper of the Song family!" ”
White cotton paper and white paper are a kind of high-grade paper in the Tang and Song dynasties, the price is moderate, and most students often buy paper to practice calligraphy.
There are also some inferior ones with three pieces and five pieces with one article.
Of course, there are more expensive calligraphy and painting papers, royal white deer paper, those are very expensive, according to the paper dozens of texts, hundreds of texts are available!
