Chapter 73: All Tools

The reason why mosquito coils can repel insects and kill mosquitoes means that they are toxic.

With something poisonous, give it to the little county lord......

Xiao Nianzhi felt that the relationship between them was not good enough now, and she didn't want to take this risk.

After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Nianzhi first looked at the bag on her arm, and then asked tentatively: "Have you asked the doctor to prescribe more mosquito repellent herbs, or medicinal incense, and order some, it should be better." ”

I can't give it myself, but I can let Yan Changxia find someone else to get it.

Moreover, there are other precautions that can be mentioned as well.

Listening to Xiao Nianzhi's various reminders, Yan Changxia nodded happily: "Well, think about what my sister said is right, think about what my sister thinks really thoughtfully, it's better to think about my sister." ”

Xiao Nianzhi almost lost herself in a sound thinking about her sister, and took out the mosquito coil.

However, in the end, reason is still online, and I have not been fooled by the demagogy.

It's okay to take mosquito coils, but at least not now.

Their friendship wasn't there yet.

Of course, the reason why the mosquito coil was taken out, Xiao Nianzhi had already thought about it.

The original owner is not familiar with pharmacology, and only knows a few simple herbs, but the original owner's father is not!

Father Xiao is not only a master in the village, but also a barefoot doctor.

Probably because there are many patients in the family, and the time has dragged on for a long time, so Xiao's father can be regarded as a doctor after a long illness.

After the original owner's mother was rescued, her health has been bad, and after giving birth to the original owner, her health has deteriorated, and she left within two years.

After that, it was the grandmother of the original owner, the old lady had been widowed for many years, planting a few acres of thin fields, doing some odd jobs, consuming herself, and providing for Xiao's father to study.

This is also why, Xiao's father was admitted to Xiucai, got fame, and after shining on the lintel, he didn't continue to study.

The conditions at home do not allow it, Mrs. Xiao consumes too much, and before she reaches fifty, she has already begun to linger on the sickbed.

There were two patients at home, and Xiao's father invited Lang Zhong to buy medicine and decoction from the beginning, and finally tried to study by himself.

I didn't expect it, but I really learned it!

It can be seen that Xiao's father's learning ability is still very strong.

If it weren't for the conditions, Xiao Nianzhi felt that the other party would at least be able to get a jinshi!

It's just that fate is not good, and there is no way to do it.

After Yan Changxia called his sister for a long time, he pulled Xiao Nianzhi over for breakfast.

She and Aunt Yu had already eaten almost, and left one for Xiao Nianzhi, and she deliberately covered it with a plate for fear of coldness.

Simple vegetarian buns with white porridge, and side dishes with fresh cucumbers.

After breakfast, Xiao Nianzhi went to collect the salary first, and then prepared to process the milk.

Refrigerator in the delicious kitchen has been cooled overnight, and the milk now has no miscellaneous taste, which means that it has not gone bad.

Yan Changxia clapped his hands in surprise, looking like a cute and cute little seal.

Extracting butter from fresh milk is a tedious process.

The reason is also very simple, the melting point of butter is very low, and it will turn into a liquid state at more than 30 degrees.

If it's finished butter, it doesn't matter if it melts, just use it.

But the question is......

Xiao Nianzhi needs to be extracted from milk, and once the temperature is too high, the butter that has been separated will be blended into the milk.

Because of this, in the process, it is necessary to constantly add milk that has been chilled in ice water.

Nowadays, the conditions are limited, and ice water is definitely not available, but cold well water is still possible.

It's just that this one is probably going to be bitter.

After all, it has to be fresh well water, because then the temperature can reach the standard.

It's just that in the process, it still needs to be distributed.

Nowadays, there is no electric whisk, and it is all manual ......

Xiao Nianzhi felt that his strength was far from enough, and his endurance was not long-lasting.

Thinking of this, she went to find Yan Changxia again.

When Yan Changxia heard this, she couldn't do this, so she went to King Wei again.

King Wei and Yan Changxia were low-key Guozijian, so he only brought Laishun, and Yan Changxia only brought Hongshuang.

Hearing that he needed someone, King Wei asked softly, "What are the requirements?" ”

Yan Changxia immediately said the request: "Great strength, good arm strength, and better endurance...... Well, young strong men, they should have better physical strength. ”

The servants in the Wei Palace's mansion were very weak, and they definitely did not meet these requirements.

He does have government soldiers, but he trains with the patrol battalion every day, and there are only about 20 left in the palace, and they change guards every day to guard the safety of the palace.

Call them here, the butler will probably be talking to him again.

Moreover, King Wei felt that the road was too far, even if he let Lai Shun ride down the mountain, it would be too much of a toss.

When it comes to food, King Wei's mind has always been fast, but in just a few breaths, he reacted and slapped his palm: "There are ready-made candidates in the academy!" ”

A question mark popped up on Yan Changxia's head, and Xiao Nianzhi and Aunt Yu also looked at it curiously.

Facing the gazes of so many people, Lord Wei coughed a little embarrassedly, and then said softly: "Steward Qiu is here, right?" ”

Hearing King Wei mention this person, Aunt Yu nodded approvingly: "They are indeed suitable." ”

Xiao Nianzhi was still confused, but Yan Changxia had already understood, and then clapped his hands and said, "Ah, yes, yes, my aunt is right!" ”

Turning his head, seeing that Xiao Nianzhi didn't understand, Yan Changxia quickly explained: "Steward Qiu They used to be members of the Northwest Army, and they retreated because they were injured. ”

It turned out to be a retired hero who defended his family and country!

Now Xiao Nianzhi understood, she was still a little embarrassed to use them to send milk.

However, the king of Wei had already signaled to come and prepare the money.

It can be seen that this is a part-time job, and it will pay extra.

Looking at this scene, Xiao Nianzhi felt a lot more relieved, and at the same time was already thinking in his heart, today's custard, Xue Meiniang, I can do more.

The speed of Laishun was very fast, and after a while, Steward Qiu had already brought five middle-aged strong men over.

They were indeed tall and large, and they were probably working, so they wore short stubs, revealing strong and powerful arm muscles.

When I came to Shun in the past, it was already briefly explained.

There is an opportunity to make extra money, and who wouldn't?

King Wei is also generous, just do some hard work, it's not a problem!

Steward Qiu led someone to salute King Wei first, and then said hello to Aunt Yu, and then asked what he was going to do.

Xiao Nianzhi just processed the milk that had been left overnight.

She only needs the top layer of milk skin, about two to three centimeters thick.

The rest of the milk naturally can't be thrown away, and it has already been taken to the well water.

They need to be kept at a slightly cold temperature before use, and as for the milk skin that has been fished out, they need to be managed by Qiu.

The milk skin was put into a deeper wooden basin by Xiao Nianzhi, because this needed to be distributed.

When she was in the Xiao Mansion, she asked the housekeeper to help order a manual whisk, which had been kept in the room before.

Now it's finally ready for use!

Midnight~
