Chapter 35 Processing

And the two of them were not idle, Ye Xuanxuan took a small jar next to her.

It was filled with potpourri paste that I had made before.

Ye Xuanxuan opened the lid and asked Ye Erya to bring a small spoon. The two of them worked together, and the main thing she had to do was to pick out the potpourri paste, pick out the size of a soybean and put it into the white grease she had taken from the vendor. Ye Erya mixed the potpourri paste she picked out with the face fat.

Originally, it was white face fat and bright red potpourri cream, but now it is a faint light red when mixed and stirred, and it reveals countless mysterious and unknown floral fragrances.

After looking at the first box of successfully stirred dough, Ye Xuanxuan nodded with satisfaction.

Ye Erya, who was recognized by the eldest sister, was also full of confidence, and accelerated the movements in her hands.

The two of them worked for half an hour, and only one-tenth of the potpourri in the small jar was used. The table and bed were full of prepared paste, and roughly there were about fifty boxes.

Ye Xuanxuan didn't do much, put away the small jar of potpourri cream, sealed it and pushed it under the bed.

The other two bowls of osmanthus and plum thick paste Ye Xuanxuan each used the same method to make Ye Erya make twenty-five boxes each, and there was not much left in the two small bowls.

After doing this, Ye Xuanxuan found the basket that contained these fats before, counted fifty boxes of potpourri paste, and twenty-five boxes of osmanthus and plum paste each, and covered them one by one and put them in the bamboo basket. Because the porcelain boxes made in this era are very shallow, and the size is only one circle larger than the plums of the same ripeness, this small box does not take up space at all. One hundred boxes were put into a bamboo basket about one and a half feet high given by Chen Xianglang, which was not filled at all.

The five earthen jars filled with water on the side were almost settled, and Ye Xuanxuan taught Ye Erya to do it according to her method.

Get another clean spoon and open a few of the spoiled greases. Add a few drops of distilled flower soaking water to each dough, and Ye Erya is still responsible for stirring.

The water in which the plum blossom jar was mixed with the fat and turned into a light pink, with a beautiful color and a slight fragrance. In addition, there is a white but unusual jasmine soaking water, and although the color does not change after mixing with white cream, it smells good, and jasmine itself has its own unique charm.

The reddest is the camellia, the color after soaking in distilled water is rose-red, and the color is even more beautiful after the gorgeous color is matched with the white face grease, like a blushing girl.

The most fragrant taste is osmanthus water, as long as half a spoonful is fragrant, the color is light yellow.

There is also the last chrysanthemum with honeysuckle with soaked water, although the color is similar to osmanthus, but the color is much lighter, and the fragrance is also abnormal.

Looking at the changes produced by these facial fats little by little through their hands, Ye Erya looked surprised, but also full of joy.

Today, I saw a lot of rare things with my sister, which also made her firm in her desire to learn from Ye Xuanxuan.

In such a busy way, the sisters made more than 100 boxes, and just used up a basket of flour.

Although doing these is not a big physical work, Ye Xuanxuan will not do it because there is something to do early tomorrow morning. Another basket of dough is just waiting for the next time.

Fortunately, the rouge boxes given by the seller were different, and the round boxes she took when she made potpourri cream had no flowers or other decorations on them.

I guess it was only sold as a cream at the time, so I didn't look for a more beautiful box!

The fat that has been soaked in flower water is a square box, and some of the boxes have small flowers on them.

This classification and search is still Ye Erya has been looking for a long time. According to the color of the flowers painted on the box, the soaking water is different, the combination of red camellia water has a box with red flowers, and the combination of pink plum blossom water has a box with pink flowers. In this way, it is not easy to get confused, and it is easy to distinguish, so you don't have to open them one by one to smell the smell.

After doing so much, there was still three-quarters of the water in the five jars.

Seeing that the weather is cold, Ye Xuanxuan is not afraid that it will break, after all, it is already a success. So Ye Xuanxuan still sealed the mouth and stored it under the bed.

Ye Erya carefully took the dough and put it into the bamboo basket. Because the box is small, one bamboo basket is enough.

A bamboo basket of Chen Xianglang contained about 300 boxes of flour, and the two sisters finally summed it up, and a total of 100 boxes of flower paste, plum and osmanthus were packed. In addition, there are more than 150 boxes of decorated facial grease for the five kinds of floral eau de toilette, more than 30 boxes of thick paste for chrysanthemum honeysuckle, and a total of 280 boxes of integer are packed into baskets. The remaining two boxes of potpourri paste and six boxes of light fragrance cream, Ye Xuanxuan thought that she could only use it for herself or give it away.

The two of them worked together to clean up the room, and everything that should be put under the bed was put under the bed.

Here, Ye Xuanxuan also took out the money from the pit under the bed to sell the herbs before, and she had received 600 wen before. It cost ten wen to buy steamed buns, six wen in front of the car, plus thirty wen left in Chen Xianglang's house, and fifty wen secretly put by Ye Xuanxuan before Ye Youfu went out. Now there are four hundred and four wen left, and tomorrow if I have time, I will have to buy a few jars or something. Thinking like this, Ye Xuanxuan loaded up the rest of the money, wrapped it in a cloth and put it under the pillow.

The two sisters, who had been busy for so long, were also a little tired, and it was getting late.

The two hurriedly took off their clothes and rested, there will be tomorrow and tomorrow!

Early the next morning, Lu Shi and Ye Jin had to get up early in the morning.

After breakfast, Lu Shi took Ye Jin out of the house, and when he left, he said that he would come back today.

The three sisters and brothers of the Ye family, who had finished the housework, also quickly packed their things, Ye Erya fed the livestock, and the three of them set off.

Ye Erya carried the back basket on his back, and the back basket was covered with leaves commonly used at home to wrap things, and then a layer of wild vegetables was spread.

Ye Baoer and Ye Xuanxuan each carried an empty back basket.

The three of them walked slowly in the direction of the entrance of the village, because they went early today. They didn't go directly to the entrance of the village, for fear of running into the Lu family, after all, it was the only hitchhiking seat.

They were relieved only after watching Lu Shi's car go away.

Looking at the surrounding ox carts and donkey carts, the three sisters and brothers rushed to the direction of Qixian Mountain.

When they came back, the empty baskets of the two of them were full, and on the surface they looked like one person and one basket of wild vegetables.

The three of them carried the basket on their backs and went to the direction of the village entrance, but due to the delay for some time, there was only one ox cart at the village entrance. But fortunately, the ox cart was Grandpa Liu's.

Grandpa Liu, who was driving the car, saw that it was the three children of Ye Youfu's family, and they all walked towards him with a basket full of wild vegetables, and hurriedly came down to help them carry the basket into the car. After beckoning the three children to sit down, Grandpa Liu shouted and set off.
