Ruyan added a whole pot of water, stuffed a lot of firewood into it, and the fire burned vigorously, and after a while, it boiled with white smoke.

Ruyi threw the bark into it and cooked it repeatedly, and then picked up some plant ash from under the stove and added it, the plant ash is alkaline and has the effect of whitening.

It was not until the two pots of water had evaporated that the bark was scooped up from the pot.

Soak in a clean basin with water, and rub the stones repeatedly until they are clean.

When all this was done, the moon was high and it was the dead of night.

During this time, Hao's family and the group of people next door rarely cooked at night, and Ruyi boiled the sticky meat porridge on a simmer, and the fragrant meat porridge was full of fragrance, which was particularly attractive at night.

Here the Ruyi family is eating the porridge in the bowl, the Zhuang family is not so particular about eating, chatting while eating, Xiaobao laughs and plays, causing the family to laugh.

The pleasant laughter and the aroma of meat porridge came to the ears of the Zhao family and the others next door, and it was particularly unpleasant.

There was no kang in the only side room, the children of the family were huddled in the house, a thick layer of leaves was spread on the ground, some firewood was put in the distance, the sparks flickered in the dark night, exuding a little warm smell, the green smoke of the firewood was particularly choking, and the air was filled with a slight unpleasant smell.

Several people had a bed of tattered cotton wool on their bodies, and they greedily smelled the fragrance of meat porridge in the dark night, and the sound of stomach screaming came from time to time in the night.

"Mother, are we just watching them eat meat and drink soup?" Yu Ruli's unwilling voice came from the night.

Shen Shi and the others held their breath and listened with their ears, this question was not only Yu Ruli's concern, but naturally everyone was most concerned.

Seeing that the third family, who used to live more humble than his own family, suddenly surpassed his own family in all aspects, how did he feel good?

"What else do you want?" In the dark night, Zhao's eyelids were not raised, but his voice was slightly depressed.

"Mother, you are used to seeing me, but I can't get used to it, you are the mother of the third brother, how can they eat and drink spicy food by themselves and ignore you and your father?" Yu Ruli's voice was high-pitched and sharp, and she was very angry.

"Yes, mother-in-law, they are unfilial ......" Shen answered.

Shen was very puzzled, he knew best what kind of character his mother-in-law and father-in-law were, but whenever they moved their minds, there was no goal that they couldn't achieve, but this time they didn't know what the reason was for defeat without a fight.

"Give me a pause." Zhao's voice was still a little sharp in the darkness, and his narrow eyes were full of gloom.

He originally wanted to say something, but seeing that Liu's most distressed Yu Ruli and Shen had eaten the chop, they had to close their mouths unwillingly, and those words were blocked in her throat and couldn't go up or down, so she couldn't sleep all night.

The night was getting thicker and thicker, and the room that should have been snoring like thunder was silent, and a room full of people with different thoughts opened their eyes in the dark and thinking about their hearts.

On the second day, Ruyi got up early in the morning, neatly hammered the bark washed last night with a mallet, and then chopped it up with a knife, and then picked out some of the impurities, so as not to have a particle distribution period in the final paper.

Ruyan came out of the house when he was busy, and saw that Ruyi was busy, so he quickly took it over and did it himself, Ruyi was not polite, his small body really couldn't stand the toss.

Under the command of Ruyi, the chopped bark was picked up into the nest, picked up the stick and hammered hard, Ruyi was the first time to see this kind of thing, which was handed down from generation to generation by the ancestors of the Hao family, the best stone was chosen, a hole was dug by a stonemason in the middle, about half a person high, and in the middle was a dry branch, the adults just happened to be able to close their hands, and the things that needed to be ground were broken in the nest.

Ruyan exerted his strength to breastfeed, hammered for half an hour, until he finished breakfast, Ruyi looked at it, grabbed some and rubbed it carefully in his hand, and then nodded.

Get a basin of water, put a fine sieve in it, let the wood chips float on the sieve, then let it spread evenly, and finally take the sieve out of the water and put it in the sun to dry.

It's not too early to finish these days, Ruyi hammers a little sore shoulders, stretching and stretching the waist to feel a lot more comfortable.

On the second day, the paper on the sieve has been formed, Ruyi takes off the paper from the sieve, and raises a fire in the open space to roast it, so that the speed of drying will be much faster.

It didn't take long for the paper to dry, and Ruyan looked at the magic, stretched his neck and watched Ruyi take off the paper and rub it in his hand.

"That's it? Niel? Ruhiko was surprised that the precious paper was made like this.

"Well, what do you think of this paper?" Ruyi handed a piece to Ruyan, Ruyan took it tremblingly, looked inside and out, and saw that the paper was white and yellow, and the paper was flat, without the slightest sense of concave and convex.

"Let's go home." Ruyi took off the remaining ones, put out the fire and took Ruyan home.

"Look, how does the paper we make ourselves compare to these?" Ruyi took out the paper he bought back and handed it to Ruyan.

"We're smoother, but it's not without fragrance." Ruyan observed for a while before saying.

"Well, my brother is right, but I have my own way to solve the aroma thing." Ruhiko said it correctly, but what Ruhiko didn't observe was that the paper he made was fairer and more delicate than the one he bought.

"Nier, you can really make paper." Ruyan was amazed, but her sister couldn't read, and she could make paper according to her imagination without knowing anything, which was really incredible.

"I also messed around, and thanks to my brother's advice and help, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to figure it out if I were alone. This is the credit of our brother and sister. ”

Hearing Ruyi say this, Ruyan felt infinite pride in his heart, although he was only contributing, but this was the first time that Ruyan felt that he was not useless in life.

It turns out that it is not so difficult to have such a precious thing!

"Brother, you see this is the paper I bought back for more than 200 yuan, think about it, if our paper also has a fragrance, how much can it be sold?"

Ruyan just knows how to calculate simply, it was taught by Daddy Yu, hearing Ruyi's words, Ruyan smiled and buried his head in hard calculations.

This paper is better than the paper that Nier bought, but I'm afraid that the price is more expensive, and the paper made today can be divided into as many as five.

"Nier, can the paper we make today sell for more than a tael of silver?" Ruyan couldn't believe it, and looked at Ruyi incredulously.

"Well, just more, not less." Ruyi nodded firmly.

Ruyan only felt that ecstasy surged into his heart, and with his own time and effort, he could actually earn more than a tael of silver!
