Chapter 274: Homemade Toothbrush
Yan Nian thought about the severely affected fields, and it would be difficult to solve the rations for the three people next year, let alone raise a few more big fat pigs.
In the end, Yan Nian secretly made up his mind to sell all the seven little pigs, and if he wanted to raise pigs in the future, the sow at home could still give birth.
With this idea, Yan Nian decided to take these piglets to the town to sell pigs in the next episode.
Thinking about this, I went back to my room to cook.
Yan Nianjing was despised by Mrs. Zhou and looked down on herself just now in the academy, which further inspired her to live a better life faster, so that those who looked down on her looked at her differently.
I also want you to see that I, a widow, can live well, don't you look down on me? Then be strong and show you.
Before going to bed at night, Yan Nian found the pig hair that he wanted to make a toothbrush in the kang cabinet without any opinion, so he took it out again and made it by comparison.
Yan Nian first tied the pig hair into a small bundle with a thin thread, and cut the pig hair into a neat brush. He also dug a small hole in the middle of one end of a wooden stick with scissors, and stuffed the neat pig hair into the small hole at one end of the wooden stick to fix it.
Yan Nian took a look and felt that this toothbrush was close to a modern ultra-soft toothbrush. However, the toothbrush head needs to be smoother and not pierced into the mouth.
So, Yan Nian carefully cleaned it with scissors and made the head and handle of the toothbrush smoother.
After everything was done, Yan Nian looked at his carefully made toothbrush, and felt beautiful in his heart, and finally said goodbye to the history of brushing his teeth with branches.
Seeing that Nuno and Yanyan were asleep, Yan Nian put the toothbrush in boiling water and scalded it, even if it was disinfected, sprinkled salt on the toothbrush, went to the outhouse to get some water, and began to brush his teeth.
The family does not have the habit of buying Poria cocos to make toothpaste, Yan Nian wants to go to the town to buy some Poria cocos powder to brush his teeth, which can be used to brush his teeth better with a toothbrush made by himself.
Yan Nian wondered if he could apply for a patent or something for this toothbrush in this ancient period, but this was also his own idea.
Okay, clean it up yourself, and then talk to others about it tomorrow.
Yan Nian put the homemade toothbrush on the wooden board of the water tank and soaked it in a water cup, so that the taste of the pig hair was a little smaller, and the toothbrush head could be expanded, making the pig hair and the wooden stick more magnetic.
For the first time since the rebirth in his mouth, Yan Nian lay on the kang and fell asleep comfortably.
The next day, Yan Nian was busy with everything as usual, leaving Yanyan at home by herself, yesterday she was in a hurry to avoid the rain, and threw the shovel and basket on the mountain, Yan Nian wanted to pull some extra radish and cabbage, and come back to make some big stuffed buns for the child at noon.
Xiao Yanyan obediently let her mother go, and she sat on the kang and played with the rag doll.
Yan Nian hurriedly walked to the side of the East Mountain.
When I came to the edge of the mountain forest at my house, I saw that the shovel and basket were still in the vegetable field, so I was relieved to start looking for a long dense place in the field, and began to pull radishes and cabbage.
After pulling a few cabbages and two radishes, Yan Nian carried a shovel and walked down the mountain.
The weather is not guaranteed, what if it suddenly rains like yesterday and the river is blocked here? There's a baby at home waiting for me to come home.
There was something in his heart and his steps were fast, Yan Nian walked to the hillside in a few steps, and at this moment, Brother Huai came out of the dense forest carrying a bundle of firewood, "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Yan Nian heard the voice, hurriedly looked back, saw that it was Brother Huai, and hurriedly said: "I'm home, Yanyan is still at home by herself." ”
Brother Huai walked a few steps to catch up with Yan Nian, put down the firewood, patted his shoulder and said, "Aren't you going up the mountain to see your forest?" ”
Yan Nian looked at Brother Huai with some confusion, "What's wrong with my forest?" ”
Hearing Brother Huai ask himself like this, Yan Nian's first thought was his orchard, did someone destroy the forest?
"Just check it out." Brother Huai looked into Yan Nian's basket.
"Oh, what's wrong with the woods? Tell me about it. Yan Nian looked at the mountain.
"Someone is working for you, don't you know?" Brother Huai looked at Yan Nian and felt that Yan Nian really didn't know about it.
"What? Someone working in the mountains? Yan Nian looked at Brother Huai in surprise.
Brother Huai shook his head and said: "It seems that your relationship is not ordinary, you don't seem to know that he is helping you work, this person wants to do good deeds without leaving a name." ”
Yan Nian hurriedly threw down the basket, "I'll go over and take a look." ”
Brother Huai also left the firewood and followed Yan Nian up the mountain and went straight to the mountain pass.
While walking, Brother Huai asked Yan Nian, "Why don't you come to the mountains these days, how are your rag dolls doing?" ”
Yan Nian said while agreeing: "I'm busy making rag dolls, it's good now, there are several villagers who are doing it with me, what's the matter?" Do you want to do it too? ”
Brother Huai said with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense, how can I have time this day, there is an old lady at home to take care of, Xiaowei's mother is still in poor health, this is not Xiaowei happy again, so I don't have time at all." ”
Yan Nian was slightly happy when she heard this, and looked at Brother Huai happily, "Really, that's to congratulate you, you're going to be a father." ”
Brother Huai's face was happy, "Yes, this is all thanks to you, if it weren't for you to introduce us, my mother's dream of holding her grandson doesn't know when it will come true." ”
Yan Nian shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily, you and Xiaowei are destined, and if I don't introduce you, someone will introduce you." ”
Brother Huai sighed again: "With a baby, I look at my mother happy, I really can't be happy at all, I always feel that I and Xiaowei are not people of the same world, it's really not interesting at all, it's better to be alone, at that time, I can still fantasize about what hope I can have with you, and now it seems that my life is like this." ”
Hearing Brother Huai say this, Yan Nian hurriedly took a few steps forward, turned his head and said, "You can't say that, we are not suitable, Xiaowei is your mother-in-law, okay, you can't say this in the future." ”
Hearing Yan Nian say this, Brother Huai bowed his head and was silent.
Walking to the mountain pass, Yan Nian raised his eyes to see that there was a person next to the orchard who was cleaning up the weeds with a sickle.
Looking closely, it turned out to be Zhao Xuanzhu, Yan Nian thought to himself that this guy was really talking, so he would help with the work.
But in front of Brother Huai, he couldn't say that Zhao Xuanzhu had sent flowers to him and wrote a courtship letter, so he smiled and said: "You are really making a fuss, isn't that Zhao Xuanzhu?" I bought this mountain, so it can't stop others from coming here to chop firewood, aren't you also here to collect firewood? ”
Yan Nian could only say this.
Brother Huai looked at Yan Nian, grinned and said: "Okay, I don't have the right to ask about your affairs, just remind you, don't mess up your life, you still have two cute little treasures, you have to save some face for the children." After saying that, Brother Huai turned around and walked back.
Yan Nian muttered in his mouth: "Look at what you said, is my Yan Nian such a misdemeanor in your eyes?" Don't worry, my Yan Nian is definitely not as unbearable as you said. ”
