Traveling through the daily life of raising a family in ancient times

Chapter 110 Soap Making and Family Going to Town

In fact, there should be several relatives in Yizhou's hometown, but Mrs. Song didn't know the exact location of her hometown, so she didn't look for it.

"Alright then." Since there was no need, He Yanxin didn't ask any more.

"Pick up your things, I have to go to work."

"Well, okay, then I'll help you later." Song Yeqing picked up the things and took them back to the inner courtyard, leaving only the paper, ink, brush and inkstone.

Zhou Jichuan is literate, and there is no nursery here, so he can teach He Chengze in his spare time.

When he came out again, He Yanxin had washed the lard and boiled it in the pot.

He went to investigate the market and decided to start with a small business like soap to test the depth of the water.

Because soap is basically used by every household in daily life, and he is confident in making better quality ones.

I'm going to go to the city again tonight to pick up the mold I ordered with the woodworker yesterday.

It is necessary to react with alkaline water and lime water to extract sodium hydroxide, so as to produce saponification reaction with lard.

Song Yeqing has the alcohol used in the process.

If you want to make the soap have a fragrance, you have to add essence and the like, but you can't get it for a while now.

All in all, there is still a lot to do.

"Do you need my help?" Song Yeqing walked into the kitchen.

"No need." He Yanxin was sweating profusely from the anger. "Just watch from the side."

He mainly wanted to talk to her more.

They are busy these days, and live in separate courtyards, except for eating, they have not been able to stay together properly.

He Yanxin began to miss the life on the road, at least they were always together.

You still have to work hard and try to move into the inner courtyard.he thought silently.

"I'm going to the city tomorrow." Song Yeqing sat aside, "The family has almost figured it out, and I should start making medicine."

She didn't forget about the business with the Escort.

"Do you want me to go with you?" He Yan wiped the sweat from his brow with a handkerchief.

Now that Zhou Jichuan is here, the law and order here is good, so there is no need to worry too much about the safety of the children.

During these days, they all saw what the other party did.Although I don't have a lot of trust, but there are seven or eight points.

Song Yeqing pondered for a long time.She has a lot of medicinal materials to buy, and she has to drive a car to pull them. It is really inconvenient for her to go alone.

"Then let's go together. You can go and see the return gift for them."

The things in the space are not suitable for gifting, they are too unusual, it is better to go to the city to have a look.

What should I send?You can't return the same gift as others.

They bought the medicinal materials and boxes, and left the car in a special car and horse shop.Standing on the street, but has yet to decide what to buy.

"Send rouge powder?" He Yanxin suggested.

Song Yeqing shook her head and explained to him: "It is not suitable for pregnant women."

"Let's just stroll around and take a look." He Yanxin tugged at her.

It's not good to buy the same and better gifts to send back.Otherwise, people will think you want to overwhelm him.

But isn't that the only gift that is often given nowadays, such as tea and porcelain, what new tricks can they play.

In the end, Song Yeqing looked at a jewelry store and chose to enter.

She forgot where she saw it. Pregnant women can wear pearls, agate, jadeite and other jewelry, which are good for the body.

So she picked out a string of pearl wreaths for Shen Qinqin, so that even if she wanted to wear it during pregnancy, it would have no effect.

I also bought a filigree gold bracelet for a little girl.

Giving these things is actually to reassure the other party's heart.

Express that my current life is not so miserable, so don't worry too much.

Song Yeqing didn't have very good friends. Although Mrs. Song was gone, Song Yeqing had some expectations for her friend.

Finding out those memories of Mrs. Song's relationship with Shen Qinqin, I am actually a little envious.

Such a sincere friendship would be what she wanted.

Five days later, the soap was finally ready for sale.

He Yanxin used to use precision measuring instruments for experiments, so he tried to make samples first.It took a few failures to get the best finished product.

Song Yeqing also prepared the twenty Linge pills that she had negotiated with the Escort.

In order to test the efficacy of the medicine, she even gave herself a knife, and it is still wrapped.

Of course, the effect of the trial was similar to what she did in modern times.

He Yanxin saw that she was going to carry things into the car, so he grabbed them and put them away without saying a word.

He carried the two children into the car again, and did not communicate with her at all.

Song Yeqing was a little shy and didn't dare to say more.

He hadn't spoken to her for a day since he knew he was hurt.

The medicine was made in a room specially cleaned up in the inner courtyard, so He Yanxin didn't know that she had stabbed himself in the arm just to test the medicine.

Yesterday when he came in to discuss something with her, he happened to be changing her dressing, and his face was dark on the spot, and he asked: Why didn't you call him?
What's the use of calling him, give him a little too?
Song Yeqing didn't think it was necessary, and she couldn't explain it. She just said that the injury was just a trivial matter, and it would heal soon.

After she finished speaking, He Yanxin's face darkened even more, and he said: "Think about it, what did you promise me?"

Then...then just ignore her.

The children sensed the weird atmosphere between the two of them, and didn't understand what happened, so they stayed in the carriage obediently.

"Sit tight, we're leaving." He Yanxin glanced at Song Yeqing who insisted on sitting outside, and shouted into the carriage.

After seeing that she was indeed sitting firmly, he drove away.

The speed of the bullock cart could not be raised, and they were not in a hurry, so they walked slowly.

Song Yeqing couldn't bear such a silent atmosphere, and tugged on his sleeve. "Why."

He Yanxin looked ahead, as if I would ignore you.But he still said, "Why?"

Song Yeqing hesitated, her ears turned red, and she still whispered: "I was wrong." Showing her kindness.

She really didn't get used to the feeling of the other party ignoring her. It was too different from when he talked a lot by the side and teased herself from time to time.

Before he knew it, Song Yeqing had gotten used to everything about He Yanxin.

In fact, He Yanxin couldn't bear to leave her alone anymore, and originally planned to expose this problem after entering the city.

I thought I couldn't wait for the other party to take the initiative to reflect on the problem with him, but now I was pleasantly surprised.

He Yanxin didn't hold on to her either, and leaned closer to her ear, "It's good to know you're wrong, does it still hurt?"

Tsk, people didn't say what was wrong with them, so they couldn't help but care.

This incident really made him very angry. After all, she had just promised to tell him something not long ago, but in the end she quietly stabbed herself.

Doesn't this woman know it hurts?I don't know if I can call him who is rough and thick?
He Yanxin was simply angry and distressed at the time.She was out of control, and she couldn't scold her, so she had to leave the other party alone.

The breath he exhaled made Song Yeqing's ears redder.

She pretended to be calm and said, "It doesn't hurt."

"Let's talk in detail tonight." After saying this, He Yanxin sat up straight, and amplified the volume a little, "It's cold, sit inside."
