Chapter 168: Many People and Many Talks
Old Lady Yang said without thinking: "It's Tietou and the other four. Why?"
"Yes, it was the four of them who did it yesterday. I didn't do anything. How could I have secretly put something in there?" Xiao Cao'er said with a smile as she looked at Old Lady Yang.
Old Lady Yang: “Is that really the case?”
Xiao Cao'er: "Isn't that right? You are watching from the side, who can deceive your sharp eyes?"
"What should we do? You silly girl, you don't even know how to keep some tricks up your sleeve." Old Mrs. Yang said this with gritted teeth. She wanted to reach out and touch her forehead, but she felt that this was not a good move and put her hand down.
"Grandma, it doesn't matter even if you tell them the recipe. I believe in the character of their two families." Xiao Cao'er whispered to Grandma Yang.
"I also trust both families. However, now that they have married their granddaughters-in-law, I'm afraid that the two granddaughters-in-law will show off and let the cat out of the bag when they return to their parents' home. Their wives' families have many relatives and they all have many gossips. Can we still trust them?" Old Mrs. Yang said with a pout.
"Grandma, you are wrong to say that. The maiden families of the two sisters-in-law are the maiden families of Grandma Goudan and her husband. The two sisters-in-law are the nieces of the two grandmas. Moreover, we trust Brother Goudan and Brother Tietou, and we believe that the two young couples can work together."
Xiao Cao'er put her arm around Old Lady Yang's and rested her head on her arm.
“Milk, soap is very simple to make, but people just haven’t thought of it. I’ve provided everyone with an idea, and if we all make it together, it can help everyone and make money.
This method is useless if I keep it in my hands, so I might as well share it with everyone. My family is a farmer and scholar, so it is not easy for us to do big business. That would classify us as merchants, so we cooperate with others. When my brothers come back, we will discuss what model to use for cooperation. "
"We can obviously make the money ourselves and give it away to others, but grandma is reluctant to do so." Old Mrs. Yang muttered to herself.
Xiao Cao couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "Grandma, there's no end to making money. I can make soap, but can't I make other things?"
When she heard her granddaughter say there was something else, Old Lady Yang asked happily, "Do you have anything else to do?"
"Not yet. I'll think of one soon, and I'll tell you first. You'll have to help me then."
"Okay, tell me when you figure it out, and I'll keep an eye on it. Don't give the recipe to anyone else. Well, just give me the recipe and I'll take it. I don't feel comfortable if you keep it." Old Mrs. Yang said to Xiao Caoer.
"Okay, I'll give it to you as soon as I get the recipe."
the other side
Liu Fang and Azhi refined the pork fat, while Goudan and Tietou cooked and filtered out the bamboo leaves.
Now everything is ready except for the grass.
After Xiao Cao'er finished talking to Old Lady Yang, Old Lady Yang went into the main room. Xiao Cao'er continued to sit in the yard, propping up his little head, looking at the sky in the distance, and sighed in his heart. He didn't know whether this sigh was for his life in this life or for his life in the previous life.
In my previous life, because of the special nature of my work, I traveled all over the world to complete tasks, and I felt that time passed very quickly. But in this life, I am only seven or eight years old, and only seven or eight years have passed, but it feels like a very long time.
In my previous life, I was very clear about what I wanted to do and what I wanted. I was a non-marriageist, but I was different from others. Others who were not married would keep a dog or some other animal to accompany them, but I didn’t even keep a dog and was too lazy to take care of it. Wouldn’t it be better for me to just lie down and work? I could bring a pet home, but when I was away, I would have to find a place to put the dog. If I didn’t have time to put it there and didn’t come back for a month or two, could I still call my home home?
But in this life, I don't know what I want to do, I have never thought about my future, just let it grow up naturally. Although my family is not rich now, it can still support the family to live a plain life.
Innovation? It depends on your mood.
There is also a high-yield crop, potatoes, which has not been taken out. We should find a way to let people discover it.
Ah! Ah! Ah! I have to think again. I don’t want to use my brain. Xiao Cao refused madly in her mind.
Xiao Cao'er was lost in thought when she suddenly heard someone calling her. She came to her senses and found that it was Liu Fang who called her, "Sister Xiao Cao'er, the oil and bamboo leaves are ready. What do you think we should do next?"
"Hey, here I come." Xiao Caoer stood up, brushed the dirt off his body, and walked towards the kitchen.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Xiao Caoer coming over. They had called her several times just now but she didn't hear them. They didn't know what she was thinking, but seeing that her face looked the same as usual, they didn't take it seriously.
Xiao Cao'er: You can see my expression, so isn't it a waste of the 21st century soul living in my body?
"Everything is ready, move everything to the yard." Xiao Caoer said to everyone. "Oh, I forgot to ask someone to make the model again. Now we don't have the model. We can't make the soap with the model. Let's make it later."
Then he walked out, "I'm going to find my dad and ask him to make a model."
"Wait a moment." Goudan stopped Xiaocao'er, "I'll go. I know who I asked to make it yesterday. I'll go ask him to make some more when he's free. Then we can make it whenever we want."
"Well, that's fine. I'll trouble Brother Goudan for it. The others can take a break first. It will be faster to work on it once the model arrives." Xiaocaoer said to them.
Tietou and Goudan went to ask someone to make a model, while Liu Fang and Azhi were cleaning up things in the kitchen. After that, they also cleaned up the yard and moved the flowers that had been dried yesterday to the drying yard outside.
There is no need for Old Lady Yang and Xiao Cao to do anything.
Seeing that they were free, Old Lady Yang wanted to take advantage of this free time to make some dumplings. Anyway, there was some oil residue from refining lard just now, so she could eat it directly to avoid wasting it. Well, not wasting the oil residue would only waste the flour.
Xiao Cao went to the vegetable garden to pick two cabbages. After drying the flowers, Azhi took over the job of making dumplings.
After the dumplings were wrapped, Goudan and his friends pushed back a cart full of models, and then they could start making soap.
"Sister Xiaocao, come and take a look. It's the same as yesterday. We also helped and it was done quickly. We made this much. I think it will be enough for today." Tietou said as he took the model down.
"Okay, these requirements are not high now, this will be fine."
