Chapter 54: Joy and Sorrow and Almost Robbed
Jian Shiming glanced at Tao Xi's back lightly, and explained to Jian Erni:
"Our family used to make tofu, and I thought it should be a principle, but this cloth is definitely not as good as gauze."
"Big brother, you and your sister-in-law are so smart."
Jian Erni didn't notice that Tao Xi had left, and she was busy.
And Tao Xi found a place to enter the space, directly filled a bucket of water, and filled the bamboo tube with water.
By the time she came back, Jian Erni had already used half a bucket of water just now to filter all the soil in the cliff salt.
However, the filtration was not very clean, but fortunately, Taoxi came back with a bucket of water, and several people worked together to filter out the soil and other impurities.
The rest is white water mixed with salt.
"We only have one clay pot, and it looks like it's going to take some time."
Tao Xi sighed, filled a clay pot with salt water, and began to boil it over the fire.
Jian Erni took Jian Shiyi and the two to find dead branches, now that it is a drought, firewood is easy to find.
The concentration of salt water is quite high, and after a while, the water was steamed, and Tao Xi stirred it with a wooden spoon.
Almost like mud, Tao Xi stopped to dig up the salt and spread it out on the ox cart to dry.
A layer of cloth was padded underneath, and so on, about three clay pots were cooked, and the salt that was dried for the first time had no moisture.
Tao Xi took a piece and pinched it, and it all became powder, and she tasted it, salty.
"That's it!"
Tao Xi excitedly poured the salt into the air-dried wooden barrel and dried it, although it was some coarse salt, Tao Xi was also extremely satisfied.
Jian Erni also tasted Tao Xi's appearance, "It's really salt, sister-in-law, you're so amazing!" ”
"Drop, ten points."
"Salty!"
Jian Shiyi stretched out his little finger and dug a little bit into his mouth, and frowned a little in the next second, looking very cute.
Tao Xi waved his little paws excitedly, "Tong, have you seen it?" I'm a chemical scum, and I can still make salt in ancient times. ”
It's even more exciting than her beating others.
"Master, if you don't hurry, you won't be able to catch up with the big team tonight!"
199 faintly reminded, Tao Xi remembered the matter, and hurriedly put away his smug look.
"Xianggong, shouldn't we hurry?"
Looking at her fluttering expression, Jian Shiming was a little helpless, and said softly:
"Sit down, I'll drive the ox cart."
She also has such a childish side, weird and cute.
"What's the matter, you're sick..."
Tao Xi almost pouted again, and changed his words in a sneering manner: "Your illness is not completely healed, so I'll come." ”
"I'm all right."
Jian Shiming no longer has the previous state of weakness, although his physical strength is not as good as that of ordinary people, he will not hold back in the end.
Taoxi: ......
Okay, then she shut up.
The wooden barrel containing the salt was still in the sun, Tao Xi bent his lips, and his eyes were bent into crescents.
However, in the next second, they were very happy and sad, and they were stopped by a few big men.
Sure enough, people can't be too excited, it's easy to attract people's eyes.
Xu saw that Taoxi and the others were few and did not follow the large army closely, and the two big men in front of him stared at Taoxi's ox cart with bright eyes.
As well as the sacks and barrels on the ox cart, the big man Zhang Laosan was burly, with a beard and a rough voice.
"Leave me all the grain and the ox cart!"
"I don't!"
Jian Shiyi hugged the back basket in front of him, and Jian Erni and Jian Shiwu also nervously hugged their food, their eyes full of defense.
"Yo, the little bunny is quite tough!"
Zhang Laosan shook the big knife in his hand, and his bearded face looked a little scary.
Another person, Li Laosi, also cooperated and shook the wooden stick in his hand, trying to scare them.
"Be honest and hand me over the stuff."
These two people looked like they were frequent visitors to robbing houses, and they looked very skilled, Tao Xi was disturbed, and her heart was depressed, and she took out the big knife she had changed earlier from the back basket.
"Xianggong, don't run around, wait for me here!"
There are only two people, Tao Xi is sure, and he really can't arrange it with a strong pill.
"Sister-in-law, they have knives!"
Jian Erni was a little anxious, her eyes were full of worry, it seems that this little girl really regards her as a relative.
Tao Xi was comforted in his heart, but his footsteps did not stop, and the petite figure stood in front of the two big men, and the painting style was a little strange.
"Big brother, can my sister-in-law win?"
Jian Shiyi's eyes were full of worry, and he even thought that if his sister-in-law couldn't win, it would be a big deal to give food to these people.
Jian Shiming looked at Tao Xi's confident appearance and comforted his younger brothers and sisters.
"Don't worry, she can win."
I really can't do it, I can only hand over the grain.
Moreover, he inexplicably felt that she could!
Tao Xi didn't know their worries, and at this time, she also shook the big knife in her hand and said cruel words.
"If you know what's interesting, get out of here, otherwise don't blame my aunt and grandmother, you're welcome!"
"Yo, this little girl still dares to scare me!"
Zhang Laosan sneered, turned his head to look at Li Laosi next to him, "It just so happens that we haven't played with my little daughter-in-law for a long time, these two girls are not bad." ”
"Big brother, listen to you."
Li Laosi rubbed his hands and laughed with a mouthful of big yellow teeth, almost disgusting Tao Xi to the point of vomiting.
The swear words of the two were unbearable, Jian Shiwu clenched his fists, and said angrily: "When my legs are healed, I must beat them to death!" ”
Jian Shiming didn't speak, but his eyes seemed to be mixed with ice knives, and he couldn't wait to scrape on those two people.
Even Jian Erni gritted her teeth angrily, eager to bite off a piece of meat from these two people.
It was Tao Xi, she thought those words were dirty, so she didn't care, and with a flick of her little hand, she threw the knife in front of Zhang Gaosan.
Zhang Laosan subconsciously waved the knife to cut Tao Xi, Tao Xi's waist was slightly, and he dodged the big knife in his hand, and kicked Zhang Laosan's wrist directly with his small foot, and the knife was thrown out immediately.
Seeing this, Li Laosi hurriedly came to help, but was also kicked away by Tao Xi, she bent down and picked up the knife in Zhang Gaosan's hand and handed it to Jian Shiming, who was sitting in the carriage.
"Take it."
"Be careful!"
Jian Shiming's eyes looked deeply at the heroic girl in front of him, with a hint of joy in his dark eyes that he didn't even notice.
"Don't worry, I can handle it."
Tao Xi smiled at Jian Shiming soothingly, and in the next second, she kicked Zhang Laosan, who got up and beat her, to the ground, and she snorted coldly.
"Do you still want to play with my mother?"
Zhang Laosan & Li Laosi: ......
The two rubbed their sore waists, and wanted to continue quite unwillingly, but they were trampled on the ground by Tao Xi in the next second.
Stepping on Zhang Laosan's face on tiptoes and rubbing the ground, Tao Xi smiled brightly.
"Be honest and hand over your food!"
"Poof......
Zhang Laosan spit out the tooth that was knocked out, and the tooth was mixed with blood, which looked particularly scary.
Frightened, Li Laosi's legs were weak, and when he raised his hand, he lost consciousness.
It turned out that his hand had already been unloaded by Tao Xi!
He hurriedly begged for mercy, "Auntie, don't be angry first, let's go get food." ”
