Chapter Seventy-Six: The "Dirty" Girl Who Made Soap
Du Sanniang and the others then arrived, and she took me under control in a fit of rage. It turned out that the secret room I was in was a dark room separated by a wooden partition. They never imagined that I would break the partition.
"What do you want to do?" Du Sanniang asked.
"I want to hit the wall!"
"See! And then what! ”
"I want to kill myself!"
"What?" After learning that I had a fever, Du Sanniang and others came to the conclusion that I was already delirious. I was quickly locked up in a secure room, tied up firmly, and found a barefoot doctor to treat me.
But the big-breasted girl who was hit by me was amazed: "This is really good!" It's not easy! It's not easy! "She is the top parsley girl in this spring fragrance hall.
In this spring fragrance hall, there are fragrant chrysanthemums, fragrant plums, pandans, fragrant bamboos, and even vanilla, but who would have thought that the one called parsley could become the top brand.
"Is your name the celery of celery?" The next day, this parsley went to visit me out of curiosity about my iron head. I asked her in the gap between her tapping my hand on my head.
"It's celery of celery."
"Poof~" I laughed.
"What are you laughing at? Celery is a bland vegetable, and how I wish I had been an ordinary-looking woman too. In this way, maybe I won't be sold to this Chunxiang Pavilion, but become an adult like my sisters, and then marry someone and live an ordinary life. "I didn't expect that the flamboyant-looking parsley had such requirements for her appearance.
Listening to Xiangqin, she was sold to Du Sanniang by her biological father. There are many children in the family, and life is hard, and her parents chose the most outstanding her from many sisters and sold her into the Qinglou. This was common in ancient times, especially in troubled times, because of the poverty of the family, they could not eat enough, and it was common to sell their sons and daughters.
I have some sympathy for her plight, she looks beautiful, but I didn't expect it to change her fate, and it can even be said that it brought her bad luck.
"I heard that you were sold here by the main room because you were a small official family?" Parsley asked me.
"So to speak!"
"I really can't see it, look at you, thin and shriveled. There is no front, and there is no back, tsk tsk, what kind of official family can fall in love with you? She sarcastically looked at me.
"Alas...... That's a long story. ”
"What's your name?"
"Zang Qing'er."
"Dirty what? Oops it doesn't matter, you're going to have a new name in a few days, and it doesn't matter who you used to be! ”
"But I don't want to be like that." I stared at her.
That's what every girl who just came in said...... But later, they didn't all live well. Look at the girl in this Chunxiang Pavilion, which one is not alive? Don't be discouraged, if you're lucky, maybe someone will redeem you and become a concubine in the future. She comforted me.
"I don't have a good main room, why should I make a small one for others?" I muttered to myself.
"What?"
"Nothing! By the way, Parsley, let me tell you, I come from a very magical place. ”
"I think this place at your feet is the most amazing place. In the chaos of war, how can there be any magical place? ”
"It's true, I'm from a place where I'm good at making all kinds of things for women. For example, there is a soap for bathing, a mask that hydrates a woman's skin, and a lipstick on her lips. ”
"Is the 'lipstick' you talking about lipstick?"
"Yes and no. In this way, you help me gather the materials, and I will make it for you, and I promise you like it. ”
"You're not kidding me, are you?"
"Of course not, if I can't do it, you can keep me locked up here."
"Okay!"
I asked Parsley to bring me lard, plant ash, and salt.
Somehow, the news that I was going to make soap out of plant ash spread throughout the Chunhyangkan. The old and young ladies in this hall came to see me, including the menacing Du Sanniang. She was afraid that I would play tricks, and after I was untied, she even asked those big men to guard my door to prevent me from being a demon again.
I rolled up my sleeves and did it with all my might.
First, I add water to the pot and at the same time add plant ash. After boiling, add the lard and continue to heat and stir constantly.
Step 2: Wait for the ingredients in the pot to boil and then switch to low heat and continue to heat constantly. This process takes a long time, even a whole day. These women simply didn't have the patience to wait, and they all questioned me for being a fool. After a while, he yawned and went back to catch up on sleep. Only Xiangqin and Du Sanniang guarded me to see what tricks I was going to toss.
Step 3: Add salt to the pot and stir to melt the salt thoroughly.
In the fourth step, let the liquid sit for a few hours.
In the fifth step, pour the prepared soap into a square mold and wait for molding.
The three women tossed until the second half of the night, and finally the soap was finished! Du Sanniang and Xiangqin looked at these boxy things intently, and couldn't help asking, "What is this?" ”
I proudly say, "It's called 'soap'!" Women love beauty and cleanliness the most, so this soap can make women cleaner. It can be used for bathing. "I put soap on my hands and lathered them out." This soap, although made of lard, has a strong ability to remove stains. You see, my hands are covered with plant ash, and they are clean when I wash them! If you add a floral scent, the soap will have a fragrance, and after taking a bath, you will have a faint floral fragrance on your body. ”
Hearing this, Du Sanniang and Parsley couldn't help but try it, and after using it, they all said it was amazing.
"Because of its decontamination ability, this soap can also be used to wash clothes, so everyone can do laundry much less effort!" I continued.
"This is good!" Parsley couldn't help but clap her hands in praise.
I saw that Du Sanniang gave her a roll of the eyes. Parsley had to put away her admiring little eyes.
"It's useful. So be it! During this time, your leg injury has not healed and you are not able to pick up customers. I don't have idlers here. You can make these for the girls in the museum first, and if you have any rouge gouache or something, you can also make some of them, and send them to me to see when you are done. After Du Sanniang finished speaking, she packed all the soaps I made and took them away!
"I want ...... too," Parsley stared pitifully at the soaps. Du Sanniang didn't pay attention to it at all, glanced at Xiangqin, and walked away with a twist.
"It's okay, I'll do it for you tomorrow!" I took her hand and whispered.
"Great!" "It's amazing," said Parsley, "I didn't expect that lard and plant ash could make such magical things." ”
"It's called 'soap.'" I reminded her.
"Yes, yes, soap, 'dirty girl', you're amazing!"
"It's 'Zang', you can just call me Qing'er."
"Uh-huh!' 'Dirty', you're amazing! ”
"Okay!" I said helplessly.
