Chapter 50
Early the next morning, Xie Daoyun was called out by Mrs. Xie.

Xie Daoyun has almost integrated into the ancient life. She blinked her eyes, but she couldn't open them no matter what.

"Let me sleep a little longer."

She snoozes and wants to sleep for a while.

Aunt Xie smiled and said, "Then you sleep for a while, and when Uncle Shuigen's ox cart leaves, I'll ask your elder brother to take us to the town?"

"it is good."

After only one sentence, Xie Daoyun opened his eyes, still a little dazed.

In ancient society, her bed was very crude.

Well, being able to have a room of your own is something that no one even thinks about.

If it weren't for the fact that Xie's family loved her very much, and she was the only girl in the family, well, Jiaojiao didn't count, and Jiaojiao would still live with her eldest brother and sister-in-law.

She wanted a room, but it was not so easy to change to another house.

Seeing that Xie Daoyun was still a little sleepy, Mrs. Xie thought that Xie Daoyun was still young, it was lethargy.

"Okay, I'll help you prepare water for washing, and you get dressed and come out to wash up."

If there's anything wrong with ancient times, it's that they were dressed too conservatively.

Don't get me wrong, she's not here to see handsome guys' muscles.

Well, even in modern times, she often reads it.

Mainly, seeing that the weather is getting hotter day by day, but they have to wear clothes covering the whole body every day.

The clothes include the small clothes inside, as well as the middle clothes and outer clothes, layer by layer, it is really hot.

Although she has not experienced the ancient summer, she can already feel the heat.

"Let me think about it, how was ice made in ancient times?"

There is no ice available in summer, which is really a torment.

Big families all use ice cellars to store ice in winter and use it in summer.

But Xie Daoyun remembers that there is another way to make ice that is easy and can be used repeatedly.

"I vaguely remember using saltpeter. There is a big pot and a small pot. The ice inside is edible. The ice in the big pot outside can be used to cool down."

Because saltpeter is toxic, eating it is likely to cause problems.

So a layer is needed.

Xie Daoyun thought, one day I would go to the town and ask where I can buy saltpeter, and try it when I buy it.

When she was thinking, she had already got up, dressed and came out, and the sister-in-law had already prepared things for washing.

Speaking of this, washing in ancient times is to brush your teeth with willow branches, and at most you will be dipped in coarse salt.

Most people probably don't brush their teeth.

Xie Daoyun had to rejoice: "Fortunately, it was not easy for ancient people to make sugar. Otherwise, at such a young age, they should have lost their teeth."

Sugar is extremely bad for teeth. After eating, you should rinse your mouth in time, or even brush your teeth.

Otherwise, over time, the gums will shrink and the teeth will fall out.

After washing up, Xie Daoyun was about to leave. Xie Wu chased her out and handed her a tortilla: "Take it and eat on the way, don't be hungry."

Xie Daoyun got up late, and the sister-in-law had already eaten.

Xie Daoyun ate the pancakes in a few mouthfuls, washed her hands again, and then went to pick up the embroidery, and went out with Mrs. Xie.

Looking at the backs of the two, Xie Wu shook his head: "This man is poor and fastidious."

Xie Ersao said with a smile: "That's because our sister-in-law is the official wife's life. No, let's get used to it in advance."

Although she is lonely, she will still kiss the ass that should be kissed.

How can mother-in-law treat her so well without flattering her?
Obviously, the mother-in-law likes to hear good things from her sister-in-law. If she speaks more, the mother-in-law will be happier.

Xie Ersao is a weaver, not as fast as embroidery.

Therefore, in the past, Mrs. Xie would go to the town every time there was a fair, but she only went once for two or even three fairs.

It depends on how fast she weaves.

When Xie Daoyun and Mrs. Xie arrived, many people had already arrived at Uncle Shuigen's place.

Seeing Xie Daoyun, Uncle Shuigen nodded, apparently remembering the snack Xie Daoyun gave last time.

The relationship between people is mutual, Xie Daoyun respects him, and he will respect him in return.

Speaking of which, Uncle Shuigen remembered that his grandson liked that pear cake very much.

This time he went to town, and he also planned to buy some for his grandson.

After waiting for a while, Uncle Shui Gen planned to set off: "It seems that there is no one left. Let's go. After noon, we will wait under the big banyan tree, and we will come back together."

Sister-in-law Xie went to give two coins, which belonged to her and sister-in-law.

If Brother Xie wasn't going hunting, Auntie Xie wanted Brother Xie to send her to the town, so she could save a penny.

Just as the bullock cart was about to start, another person shouted loudly: "Wait, there are still people."

Xie Daoyun frowned, it was Xie Zhaodi, and she went to town again.

I heard that Xie Zhaodi also visited a few days ago.

Xie Daoyun didn't intend to talk to Xie Zhaodi, and turned around to talk to Mrs. Xie.

Sister-in-law Xie is also happy to talk to sister-in-law, she thinks sister-in-law knows a lot.

Although he just woke up not long ago, he already knows how to embroider, cook, and read.

"By the way, what book did you read that day?"

Xie Daoyun said: "It's just a book that introduces herbs. I'll take a look and recognize them. One day, let my elder brother take us up the mountain to have a look. I'll look for herbs. I remember the last time I went to town, there was A pharmacy, let’s go and ask today, if the herbs are collected, will the pharmacy accept them?”

"That's a good feeling."

She wants to embroider, which is her means of supplementing the family income.

But Brother Xie and the others go hunting in the mountains, and not every time they have a big harvest.

If you come back empty-handed, or just hit a rabbit or something, you still have some losses.

Waste of time.

It would be great if we could go up the mountain to collect herbs by the way.

"Speaking of which, father-in-law actually knows some herbs. Your eldest brother and the others went up the mountain, and it was snake medicine made by father-in-law. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to go up the mountain."

Fortunately, in winter, the snakes hibernate.

But during this time, the temperature had warmed up, and the snake started to swim around.

If the hunters don't know how to make snake medicine, they dare not go up the mountain easily.

It would be bad if it was bitten.

Even if there is snake medicine, it is not that people have not been bitten, and generally they cannot be rescued.

When Xie Zhaodi arrived, Uncle Shui Gen took a penny and said, "If you don't come by noon, I won't wait. I've agreed on this in advance. Don't come to see me at home at that time, If it works, you get in the car, if not, I will return the money to you."

He would not waste so much time for a penny without getting a good word from others.

With so many people, there is no shortage of this penny.

"Understood, I don't care about it."

Xie Zhaodi climbed into the bullock cart, and the people around him avoided a little.

This girl is young and has a lot of eyes.

Xie Daoyun didn't bother to talk to her, and continued talking to Mrs. Xie.

"The pear cake you bought that time, Jiaojiao likes it very much, I will also buy some today. Bring some for my in-laws."
