Gu Xiaoyou was in a happy mood, and the noon meal was eaten by her.

Seeing that she was not affected, Zhou settled down, and while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, he asked, "That Xiaoyou, is our medical center still open?" ”

Gu Xiaoyou thought for a while: "Let's go, there will always be sick people." ”

She got up and left the backyard and went to the antechamber to continue her search.

After sitting for an hour, I simply moved everything to the backyard.

said to Zhou, who was embroidering: "Sister Zhou, I'll help me watch the medical hall in front, and someone will call me again." ”

"Okay, I'll go over here." Zhou took the embroidery shed and needlework and walked towards the front hall.

Gu Xiaoyou took the thick information prepared in his hand, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start officially.

According to the information found, she prepared some wood.

The wood is carefully peeled and cut into pieces.

Gu Xiaoyou cut for a long time, sweat broke out on his forehead, and wiped the beads of sweat in front of him: "It would be nice if there was a machine, it would be troublesome to cut this." ”

It took her more than half an hour to get a basket of thin, fine, and acceptable wood chips.

"Next is steaming."

Holding a basket of sawdust, Gu Xiaoyou came to the kitchen to boil water.

Quickly boiling a large pot of water, she was pouring it in, and Zhou came over.

"Xiaoyou, the patient is here...... Ouch, my little ancestor, why are you cooking wood, are you hungry? ”

Zhou looked at her with a suspicious expression, Gu Xiaoyou waved his hand: "No, I'm useful......"

It was too troublesome to explain, so Gu Xiaoyou simply ordered: "I'll go see the patient first, you help me watch it, I'm going to boil it into wood pulp." ”

After speaking, he hurriedly ran towards the front yard, Zhou looked at her back for some reason, looked at the pot again, and stood in front of the stove and stirred it from time to time with a spatula.

By the time Gu Xiaoyou came back from watching the patient, the sawdust had almost been boiled into wood pulp.

"Thank you, Sister Zhou, I'll do the rest."

"Okay." Sister Zhou handed the spatula to Gu Xiaoyou and went back to the front yard.

As soon as Zhou left, Gu Xiaoyou got some plant ashes and put them in the pot.

"I almost forgot the most important program."

The wood pulp is made by adding the burned alkaline water of plant ash to make it.

With the addition of plant ash and boiling for a while, the wood pulp is finally boiled.

Gu Xiaoyou took out a few clay pots and put the wood pulp in them.

Take one of the cans, pour it into the pot, add the ingredients she bought from the paper workshop, and boil it gently.

It wasn't until it got dark that she boiled out a small pot of pulp.

Gu Xiaoyou wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at the pulp in the pot with a sense of accomplishment.

Zhou locked the front yard and came to the kitchen: "Xiaoyou, you have been busy all afternoon, what are you boiling a pot?" ”

"Hey, here's pulp."

"Pulp? Are you going to make paper? ”

"Yes, I'm not just about making paper, I'm going to make paper like no other."

Gu Xiaoyou's eyes were shining, as if he had seen her toilet paper beckoning to her.

Zhou took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face: "You, if you want to use paper, I'll buy it for you, why bother so hard." ”

"Sister Zhou, you don't understand, I can't buy the paper I want to make here."

Gu Xiaoyou took the handkerchief and wiped it indiscriminately: "I still have to build a small fire room, otherwise my paper won't be able to come out." ”

"Fire room?"

Gu Xiaoyou nodded, walked to the backyard and took out the blueprint of her flowers.

Zhou Shi looked at it carefully: "Isn't this just a small stove for burning things, I will build it, and I will get it for you." ”

"Really? Great, thank you Sister Zhou, my little stove depends on you. Gu Xiaoyou looked at the sky: "It's too late today, let's get it tomorrow." ”

Zhou felt that he finally had a useful place, and responded happily: "Okay, don't worry, I'll build it for you tomorrow." ”

The two of them left the hospital together and had a good night's sleep.

Early the next morning, Zhou prepared bricks and mud and got busy in the backyard of the hospital early in the morning.

Gu Xiaoyou wanted to help, but she rushed to the front yard to take care of the hospital.

It wasn't until noon that Zhou took Gu Xiaoyou to the backyard with a gentle smile on his face: "Look, it's done." ”

Gu Xiaoyou happily circled around the small stove, and carefully looked at the internal structure, which was even more perfect than her design drawing, and said to Zhou gratefully: "Sister Zhou, you are really amazing." ”

Zhou pursed his lips embarrassedly: "Small things, every family in the village builds their own stoves, and everyone in our village will." ”

Compared to Xiaoyou, she will really not be worth mentioning.

"You're so humble, you've helped a lot, and I have to thank you so much."

Gu Xiaoyou said, rummaging on his body, Zhou hurriedly waved his hand: "No, I'll go to the front yard to watch, you are busy." ”

Gu Xiaoyou withdrew his hand regretfully, planning to thank Zhou again in the future.

She took out last night's pulp, and according to the information she found, she first removed the pulp with water, added it to the animal glue bought in the paper workshop, stirred it, and beat it repeatedly with a mallet.

It took a long time to get the effect she wanted, and she put down the mallet and rubbed her sore arm.

She felt like she had become a relentless thrashing machine.

Gu Xiaoyou raised his sore arm and set the stove on fire.

Feeling that the temperature is right, grind the homemade pulp on the iron sheet, carefully put it into the stove, and close the stove door.

"Now I just have to watch the fire and wait a while, hehe."

Gu Xiaoyou added firewood with confidence, watched the fire, and tried to observe the situation from the gap in the stove door.

Unfortunately, I didn't see anything but darkness.

Slowly the stove wafted out the scent of paper, and Gu Xiaoyou said happily: "It seems that there is a play." ”

Gu Xiaoyou flashed his fan, stared at the stove, calculated the time in his heart, and felt that it was almost there.

Wearing thick gloves, he opened the stove door and looked in expectantly.

As a result, the pulp inside the stove was pitch black.

Gu Xiaoyou took out the finished product in disappointment and brought it to his eyes: "I didn't smell the mush, why is it burnt?" ”

She hung her shoulders a little frustrated.

At this time, Zhou walked in and asked with concern, "Xiaoyou, what's wrong?" ”

"Sister Zhou, I failed."

Gu Xiaoyou pitifully showed the pasted pulp to Zhou.

Zhou Shi glanced at it a few times, and said regretfully: "The firepower is too big, I guess this paper paste is the same as the paste, and it needs a smaller fire." ”

Gu Xiaoyou straightened up like an empowered: "You're right, it must be the right heat." ”

As he spoke, he took out a pen and paper and calculated it carefully.

Zhou smiled: "Then you get it, I'll make you lunch." ”

"yes, okay." Gu Xiaoyou answered without raising his head, concentrating on his research.

Zhou shook his head helplessly and walked towards the kitchen.

After eating lunch in a hurry, Gu Xiaoyou took out a can of pulp again.

Repeat the first step, put the smoothed pulp into the stove, close the stove door, and wait with full attention.

When the time finally came, she opened the door and took out the iron piece of pulp to look at it.

A piece of half-baked paper lay on the iron sheet, and when you gently carried it with your hand, it fell into a ball.

"Is it because time is too short?"

Gu Xiaoyou was not discouraged and took out another can of pulp, she didn't believe that she couldn't make pieces of paper.

She spent the whole day studying in the backyard.

It wasn't until Zhou locked the front yard and came back that he was startled when he saw Gu Xiaoyou's appearance.

"My little ancestor, how did you make yourself look like this?"
