The crowd dispersed, and those from other villages couldn't help but express their opinions on today's events on the way to their homes.

"These old guys of the Ge family are still old and strong." Xu Jifa felt it.

Li Yunfei kicked away a stone in front of his toe, "I see that there are a lot of confused people in the seventh room of the Ge family, and it is a loss that there are Ge Youling, Ge Xiangrong and others suppressing it, otherwise I don't know how to mess up." ”

They lived next to Shangrao Village, Xiagou Village and Shangqui Village, and when Ge Qijin's family made a fuss, they heard the wind and rushed over, and they really watched a big play.

"If there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, this is also true for the clan. The land in Shangqu Village is not fertile, and a lot of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes have to be paid every year, but in recent years, there has not been a family in the seven houses of the Ge family in Shangqu Village who have sold their children and daughters, and it has to be said that the people above are well led. The person who sighed in Xu Li's mouth was Ge Youling,

Compared with him, Ge Xiangrong is a step worse, but the victory is that Ge Xiangrong is obedient, and he does not have any intention of seizing power and fighting, and it is enough to keep it.

"Our brothers also have to work hard to make the villagers live better, at least not too far behind Shangqu Village." Xu Jifa patted Li Yunfei on the shoulder.

Both of them feel that the burden on their shoulders is heavy, but it's a pity that there is not a single Ge Xiaowu in their village, it's a pity.

"Cousin, how did you do that?" Ge Runan couldn't help but be curious, and asked the doubts in his heart. It's really so blue that it's dyed on the flowers embroidered with phalaenopsis, and people can't take their eyes off it.

Everyone pricked up their ears and scratched their lungs to find out.

"Want to know?"

Ge Runan nodded like pounding garlic.

Today can turn the danger into a disaster, Ge Rumo is in a good mood, and then I think that Ge Qijin's family will enter Beijing in a few days, and I will not come out from time to time to disgust her, and I will be in a better mood, as for the pension money every three months? What can be solved with silver is a small thing.

Thinking about it like this, and looking at my cousin's stunned eyes, I couldn't help but urge for a while, "This is a secret." ”

Ahh

Ge Rumo won't say it.

In fact, they feel mysterious, and it is really nothing to have stayed in modern times for nearly 30 years, received 20 years of cultural education, and experienced the era of information explosion. It's just with a little bit of chemistry.

It's also a coincidence, didn't she pull back a cart of kelp and a cart of seaweed from Zhao Junxian before? She calcined part of the kelp in private, made it into powder, and prepared to use it as a medicinal herb. Iodine melts in water but in organic matter, so it is simply processed and then made into iodine wine.

In fact, the ash calcined kelp has a high iodine content, but it also contains impurities, and in modern times, redox experiments are needed to obtain elemental iodine, but she just wants to see the iodine content of this batch of kelp, so she directly uses high-grade liquor to melt iodine.

At this time, there was no medical alcohol, and it was too late for Zhao Junxian to slowly explore the production, so she directly bought a few bottles of the strongest national wine.

The iodine wine produced is not pure, but fortunately there are not many impurities, and this copycat version of iodine has been kept in the cabinet in her room.

She had brought back the rice noodles that Anan had milled before, and she wanted to try the taste in the morning, because she remembered it temporarily, so she made a bowl and put it on the table in the house. When she didn't want to change her clothes, the end of the breast cloth fell into the rice soup, and when she picked it up, she had no appetite to drink. It just so happened that Aunt Xianggui called her outside the house, and she was very anxious, and she didn't have time to deal with the bowl of rice soup and put it aside. She rested her wet breast wrap on the clothes pole and didn't have time to wash it.

It's all a coincidence, but she didn't expect this coincidence to help her a lot.

The starch was blue when it met iodine, which she remembered in a hurry. can think of this, but it is also thanks to the fact that when she was a child, she accidentally bumped into her cousin who was a goddess in the countryside and used this trick to cheat money. She and her cousin hid in her grandmother's tent, which was made of hemp, and someone couldn't find it when they hid there. Then she quietly stuck her head out and saw what Grandma had scribbled on her precious white paper. Not long after, my cousin was called out to speak, and she and her cousin took the opportunity to leave. Before leaving, she couldn't help but glance at the white paper curiously, there was nothing, just a few wet lines on it, and a bowl of rice soup next to it.

That night, my cousin helped people do it, and my cousin was naughty and pulled her to hide in one place to watch. She still remembers that when the practice was at its most critical, it was Grandma Tang who poured a mouthful of 'spiritual water', and then sprayed more than a dozen white papers in front of her, only two of which showed the appearance of ghosts drawn with blue lines, and everyone couldn't help but scream at that time, but Grandma Tang just glanced at them, and then did it with peace of mind.

I saw her pierce it with a peachwood sword, and with words in her mouth, she burned the paper with ghosts painted on it.

At that time, the person who was looking for grandma to exorcise ghosts handed her a small stack of large solidarity after he was done.

Later, she and her cousin were reprimanded, which she always remembered, and it was only when she went to high school that she revealed the truth.

At that time, she knew that the spiritual water was 'iodine wine', and it was not to be drunk. Grandma Tang for the effect, direct entrance. Come to think of it, grandma cousin has worked hard to make money.

It's no wonder that she always felt uncomfortable for a period of time after each 'practice', and she didn't speak, and the external saying was that the loss of essence was too great.

Now she can be regarded as having escaped by relying on her grandmother's trick of pretending to be a ghost back then.

"Cousin, the blue cloth you made is so beautiful, can you help me dye a few feet? After a while, my mother and I will go to my grandfather's house to visit relatives, and it would be nice if we could make a blue dress. ”

My cousin's face was envious, it turned out that she wanted a blue cloth.

"This blue color doesn't last long, and the color will fall off after washing it a few times." Ge Rumo said truthfully.

Previously, she had the heart to inquire about Qingdai, so she went to Buzhuang to inquire, and asked Wang Yiqing, knowing that although there is blue cloth for sale now, it is all tribute satin, and only the nobles in the capital wear blue.

Although it is not like purple that only people with grades can wear purple, the amount of blue cloth is small and the price is high, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford to wear.

She had seen the only blue satin they had treasured in the Splendid Pavilion, the largest cloth village in town, and it was not as blue as the one she had made today.

Later, she thought about it again and again, and always felt that something was wrong, she remembered that the word blue appeared very early in history, why is it that blue cloth is not sold now?

The word blue was not used to represent color at the beginning, but in the Wei and Jin dynasties, the status of using it to represent color gradually increased.

The original indigo dyeing was dyed by the sap kneaded and leached by the leaves of the blue grass, and then the process was gradually improved, and the fermentation reduction method was probably invented in the Wei and Jin dynasties to reduce the indigo into indigo, and the pre-made blue mud containing indigo was dyed.
