After Gu Xiangxiang's family learned that Liu Zihao was disqualified from the exam, Gu Xiangxiang and Xu Lifen sat at the dinner table with gloomy faces.

"Is that true?" Xu Lifen's tone was not very good.

"Mother, this kind of thing is spread out of the world, how can it be true. There must be someone who is jealous of Zihao and spreads such a rumor. The Liu family had accidents one after another, and the Xu family pinned their last hope on Liu Zihao.

Unexpectedly, Liu Zihao is also a dou who can't be helped, and he doesn't even have the qualifications for the exam.

"If it's really a rumor, with Zhou's character, it's already going to be a mess, how can there be no movement at all." Xu Lifen sneered: "Look at you, what kind of family you have chosen for yourself." If Liu Zihao is really disqualified from the exam, he will not be a mud leg in the countryside in the future, and he can't lift his hands and shoulders, and he now has two sick seedlings at home. ”

There was no accident in the Liu family before, and Liu Zihao was not disqualified from the exam, and there is still some hope for this family business.

Look at the present, it is troublesome to really marry in the past.

Gu Xiangxiang bit her lip.

She was also a little confused, not understanding how things could have come to this point.

"Mother, what now?"

"Let's take a look first, I said it before, and he will get married when he is admitted to the show. If he doesn't even have the qualifications for the exam, what will he talk about taking the exam? ”

"You can't wait any longer, if you wait any longer, our girl will be older." Gu Haikun said lightly.

"You can't marry now, I see that the Liu family has become a fool now. Zihao's father broke a leg, and he will definitely not be able to go to the ground in the future, there is still a Liu Qingshan at home who can't take care of himself, and Zihao has a younger brother under him, she wants to marry her, and she will be eaten by them to the bone. "What kind of virtue the Liu family has, Xu Lifen knows best.

"Xiangxiang, what do you think?"

Gu Xiangxiang felt a wave of nausea in her stomach, and she covered her mouth and rushed outside.

Xu Lifen looked at Gu Xiangxiang's back as she rushed out, her brows furrowed, and she had a bad premonition in her heart.

Hurry up and keep up.

After a while, he pulled Gu Xiangxiang into the room.

"What's going on?" Xu Lifen's voice was cold.

Gu Xiangxiang's voice was small: "I don't know." ”

There was panic and fear on his face.

……

Gu Yunjie, who woke up from sleep, only felt refreshed, and she put the drawings away. After breakfast, he pulled Gu Chenggang to see if he could squeeze peanut oil.

The work in the field is almost done, and if you are idle, you will simply demonstrate it to Gu Yunjie at home.

The process is complicated and complex, and simple and simple.

The sun-dried peanuts are dried, then ground into powder with a stone mill, steamed in a pot, and then wrapped in a cloth and pressed to extract oil.

The equipment is simple, the oil is not clean, it will be a bit of a waste of raw materials, and it is only suitable for the case of not many raw materials.

In the case of a large number of raw materials, I am afraid that this method will exhaust the individual.

At the end of the day, Xiaojie was already tired and didn't want to move. Twenty pounds of peanuts, the oil yield is less than two pounds.

This oil yield is too low, in modern times, ten catties of oil can produce about three catties, more than 20 catties of peanuts, how can you get more than six catties.

Gu Chenggang was like a curious baby, smelling the peanut oil squeezed out: "This oil is so fragrant, much more fragrant than flower oil." In the past, no one found that peanuts can also be squeezed for oil, which is similar to the squeezing method of tea oil. ”

"I'm also curious, how can there be no peanut oil with tea oil?" Gu Yunjie knew that this was an alternate era, and many things could not be explained by normal historical development.

"Peanuts are so useful, who would have thought that they could also be used for oil." Gu Chenggang smiled, looking innocent: "Xiaojie, you are still smart and thought of this." ”

"Dad, when the new peanuts come out this season, let's squeeze more."

"That's not possible, the whole family will go into battle to squeeze these two catties, and it's not good to be tired. If you really have to squeeze hundreds of pounds, how tiring it is. Gu Chenggang waved his hand and did not agree.

"I mean, we can build an oil mill that is convenient for ourselves and convenient for others. The method is pretty much the same, just build another big baby out, which can help us squeeze more oil. "You can squeeze the oil by hand at home, but the oil yield is too low and it is very tiring.

"If you can make an oil-squeezing baby, I'll go into the city and open an oil mill. This is a seasonal business, and it is estimated that it will not survive at other times after the harvest season. ”

That's true, but it's not the purpose of her oil extraction, it's the main purpose of selling oil.

Forget it, let's take it one step at a time, and it's still a question whether this oil extraction machine can be made.

If it can't be done, the plan will have to run aground.

In the evening, after Gu Yunjie handed over two pairs of Chu San's calligraphy works to the laboratory, the laboratory really generously gave her a set of books on oil extraction, and also attached a drawing.

After she understood the principle, she engraved the drawing in her mind and drew it that night.

After Chu Sandu woke up, he found that she was drawing something on the table, and couldn't help but get up and stand behind her: "Lady, what is this painting?" ”

Gu Yunjie was just finishing painting, and when she heard Chu San's words, she yawned sleepily: "I'm so sleepy, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Put the drawings there first, don't move, wait for it to dry a little. ”

This is not good for ink writing, and you have to wait a while to dry after writing, and you can't put it away right away.

"Sleep, I'll go and relax."

"Okay."

Chu San came to the entrance of the village, and there was a figure waiting for him on the side.

"Come pick me up in ten days, I'm going to go out."

"Yes." After the shadow received the order, the man left.

When Chu San returned to the room, Gu Yunjie had already fallen asleep. She slept inside of her own accord, leaving the outside spot to him.

But he didn't feel sleepy, and looked at her face for a while.

Recently, I have lost a lot of weight, and my face is not as big as before, pink and tender, and I want to take a bite when I look at it.

Sleepless, he played with her hair.

Slowly, I fell asleep.

After getting up early to practice, Gu Yunjie showed Chu San the drawings: "Didn't my father and I try to squeeze oil yesterday?" I know all the basic steps, and I thought of such an oil press in one night, and now the problem is that I have to find someone to help me make it. ”

Chu San glanced at the drawings, good guy, this thing is not small, most of it is made of iron, and it can only be completed by finding a blacksmith and a carpenter to work together.

"How did you come up with something so complicated?"

"Suddenly, I thought about it, and I didn't know if it would work. However, this matter has to be done slowly, and it is still a question of whether anyone can make him. "There's also a bit of a modern twist in it.

"Maybe you can ask a blacksmith or a carpenter."

After eating, Chu San drove the carriage into the city with the lady.

Lingbao stood at the door of the house and watched his father and mother walk away, his mouth flattened. She was not happy, and her father and mother went out and did not take her to play.
