Chapter 31 is finished
"Hey, hey..."
The things dropped by today's check-in are also unusually rich, a hundred kilograms of cornmeal!
Yun Shu was so happy that he couldn't hold back his laughter all of a sudden.
Si Mo, who was sitting next to her, suddenly turned his gaze, "Awake?" ”
At this time, it was just dawn, but because of the snow, the view was not obstructed.
Si Mo's eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and there was a faint hint of pampering in the gaze that looked at her.
Yun Shu blinked uncomfortably.
I always feel that Zeng Aniu's feelings for her have developed too fast...
"The snow hasn't stopped?"
Yun Shu changed the topic dryly, moved his body carefully, and stood up.
The two children were still sleeping, Yun Shu helped them wrap them in bear skins, and let them sleep for a while.
When they are growing their bodies, adequate sleep is a necessary condition for growth.
The snowstorm had been falling all night, and the snow was already deep in Yun Shu's calves.
Xiuxiu woke up early, and the place that belonged to her side was already cold, so she must have been awake for a while.
"Xiuxiu and the villagers went to the forest to collect tree bark..."
Si Mo's gaze kept glued to Yun Shu, and when he saw her looking at Xiuxiu's position, he immediately spoke.
The villagers did not have a good time last night, many of them were wearing single clothes, not even a jacket.
Fortunately, I had a full meal last night, and I was next to the fire, so I survived.
The snow was heavy, the ground was damp, and when I sat down, the cold seemed to seep into my bones...
I couldn't sit down, let alone sleep, so I just went to collect the bark in the snow.
Yun Shu followed Zeng Aniu's line of sight, and a pile of tree-shaped bark like a hill appeared next to the cauldron where the bark was boiling.
Yun Shu's eyes circled around, and sure enough, there were not many people in the snow anymore.
This kind of ghost weather, I'm afraid it was only the three of them who really fell asleep last night!
Yun Shu sighed, she had to speed up and subdue this group of people.
After all, they are their future employees, and they can't watch them freeze to death and starve to death!
"I'm going to see how yesterday's bark cooked..."
Yun Shu moved his slightly stiff body for a moment, and raised his eyes to look at the bubbling cauldron.
Guarding the cauldron was Ah Da, who took a few villagers to collect firewood.
The amount of dry firewood consumed in one night is a very large number, and coupled with the destruction of this ghost weather, it is not easy to find dry firewood at all.
Zhou Wenbo is a person who takes one step and sees three steps.
One night, under his arrangement, simple straw huts rose from the ground.
There were already two straw huts that were already stuffed with firewood.
And the process continues.
"Is it okay to cook like this?"
Zhou Wenbo didn't sleep all night and was still in good spirits, he saw Yun Shu standing next to the cauldron, and immediately ran over excitedly.
"I just noticed that the bark has softened a lot..."
Yun Shu took a wooden stick and fished out a boiled soft bark and stretched it with his hand...
"Probably... That's it! ”
She doesn't have any experience with that, so who knows what to cook?
Zhou Wenbo immediately became excited when he heard this, "What should I do next?" ”
Yun Shu recalled the steps he had seen, "Fish it out and wash it, and then start pounding..."
"I'm coming!"
Ah Da immediately put down the firewood he was about to fill, turned around and brought a clay pot and began to rinse.
Don't look at his five big and three thick, but his hands are very skillful, and in a while, he rinsed the boiled soft bark.
The beating is carried out on a large stone, and the tool for beating is also a round stone.
Ah Da's arm strength was very strong, and a large pot of bark was beaten into a paste by him in a few moments.
"It's OK..."
Things went a lot smoother than expected, and Yun Shu was also very excited.
"The next step is to dig and copy..."
Taoyu's tools are a few pieces of fine linen that Yun Shu has purchased from the system mall a long time ago.
Under Yun Shu's command, Zhou Wenbo took matters into his own hands and quickly scooped up a layer of unevenly distributed white fibers.
"Is it done?"
Zhou Wenbo's face turned red with excitement, this is papermaking!
The papermaking technique has always been in the hands of the Qin family, except for the head of the family, even ordinary descendants do not know.
The Qin family relied on papermaking to gather the wealth of half of the country and became an existence comparable to the Bai family.
After the death of Empress Shuhui, the Bai family has not grown much in these years, but the Qin family has a faint momentum of catching up.
Maybe it's already catching up, but the Qin family is low-key and doesn't make too much noise...
"The next thing is to dry in the sun, but now we don't have the conditions, how about trying drying?"
Yun Shu didn't know if drying would work, but now there was no other good way, so he could only try it first.
"Good!"
Zhou Wenbo held his breath and carefully controlled his arms not to get too close to the flames and not too far away.
"That's not going to work..."
Yun Shu frowned, "This makes your hands sore after holding them for a while, let's make a shelf!" ”
Everyone present was accustomed to work, and a shelf was quickly ready, and by placing the shed containing the fibers on the shelf, I was finally able to free my hands.
There are still a lot of bark paste, and Zhou Wenbo fished more than a dozen pieces in a row.
The next step is to wait for drying.
Breakfast was still rice porridge, and the villagers were brown rice porridge, but fortunately no one was hungry.
Since he couldn't leave for the time being, so many people couldn't sit and eat empty, Zeng Aniu led a few villagers up the mountain to hunt.
In the process of drying the paper, Yun Shu used the potion given by Chunlan to scrub the scalps of the two cubs.
The fleas in that head have always been hovering in Yun Shu's heart, and now she can breathe a sigh of relief.
"Mother, do you smell the millet fragrant..."
Xiaomi hugged the little teddy bear and snuggled up to Yun Shu obediently, watching Yun Shu help his brother tie his hair.
"Hmmm! It smells so good! ”
Yun Shu took an exaggerated breath on Xiaomi's head, with a look of intoxicated admiration.
Not to mention, Chunlan's potion tastes very good, refreshing and refreshing.
"That's it!"
Yun Shu also pierced a ball head for rice, and now the difference between him and Xiaomi is that Xiaomi is a double pill head, while he is a single pill head.
Yun Shu is clumsy, she can only tie the head of the ball, and the two children follow her and one of them has a big pill head.
Her own hair is also tied into a high ponytail or ball, which is also refreshing.
Especially in this kind of escape time, who has so much mind to toss their hair!
When she woke up this morning, Yun Shu found a lot of women with ball-tied heads or high ponytails like her.
Chunlan, who came from afar, also tied a neat high ponytail, and she looked more and more heroic.
"It's done..."
Zhou Wenbo's excited shouts were heard not far away, and Yun Shu immediately pulled the two cubs over.
Chunlan also took a few steps and leaned over to look at the uneven piece of paper that Zhou Wenbo was holding in his hand.
The paper is slightly yellowed, coarsely pulled, and there are some uneven coarse fiber particles...
But none of these shortcomings can hide the fact that it is indeed a piece of paper.
"We've really made paper..."
Zhou Wenbo couldn't help himself with excitement.
