Chapter 7 Soap
After breakfast the next day, Mrs. Lin saw that everyone else had gone to the field, and the girls were busy in the kitchen.

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at Mrs. Li who was making small clothes.

"Hold the money in your hands tightly, and don't let the others find out."

Hearing this, Mrs. Li got nervous and her finger was punctured by the needle, and said while stopping the bleeding, "Mother, I'm not..."

"Okay, do you think I can't see your little thoughts?" Mrs. Lin lowered her head and held the sole of her shoe.

"Yun'er said that the money for the shopping was paid by my father-in-law, don't say it slipped."

The reason why Mrs. Lin doesn't let Mrs. Li take out the money is that firstly, she can rest assured that the fourth house is honest and will take it out if the family needs it urgently;

"It was because Yun'er was clever at the time, seeing that the situation was not right, that's why..." After saying that, Li's face flushed.

For so many years, Mrs. Lin has always been very kind to her. Even if she has no sons, she has not favored each other and given them a lot of property shops.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Li felt a little ashamed, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Mrs. Lin, "Go to the kitchen and see if there is anything I can help you with."

"Hey..." Mrs. Li responded, put down what she was doing, and went to the kitchen.

At this time, several people in Qingyun had already poured the lye precipitated by the plant ash into the hot oil, and put a handful of fine salt.

Just as he was about to scoop hot oil into the mould, Mrs. Li shouted, "Let me scoop it up. Those who are heating the oil in a hot pan, you have little strength, and it won't be good if it gets hot."

Dai Qingyun nodded, yes, after all, she has small arms and legs, so several people arranged the molds neatly, put them on the vegetable cutting table, and put two molds on the stool stacked on the ground.

After a while, the big pot was divided, and the five molds were just filled.

"Then wait for it to cool down and unmold!"

Dai Qingyun looked at the five molds expectantly.

"Then how do we sell soap and how much is a suitable price?"

Dai Qingrong's eyes were shining brightly, and he was already imagining the soap sale scene!
Seeing her like this, Dai Qingyi couldn't help snickering, "It must not be too expensive, otherwise everyone can't afford it."

"It's natural." Dai Qingyun nodded, "Let's talk about it tomorrow, the soap will be ready tomorrow morning."

Seeing the cute looks of the little girls, Mrs. Li couldn't help but also look forward to it.

At night, the whole family came to the kitchen one by one curiously to look at the soap.

"That's enough, it's okay, I can't eat or not, I can't finish watching." Lin blamed, "One by one, they still don't wash up."

In the evening, I eat fried cabbage with oil residue, stewed potatoes with oil residue, and tofu soup with oil residue.

Looking at the several large pots of vegetables on the table, Dai Qingyun thought to himself, this can be regarded as meaty.

After eating, everyone ate their stomachs round.

"Look at Shiro's mouth full of oil, will he be able to eat comfort tonight?"

Mrs. Sun made a rare joke and pinched her son's round cheeks.

His eyes are full of love.

"Delicious! I want to eat oil residue every day!" Shiro looked innocent.

Dai Qingyun snorted, was drinking tea, and almost choked, Shiro's words were right, I am afraid that there will be no less oil residue in their family in the future.

Thinking about so much oil residue, is it possible to do some kind of business...

Early in the morning of the second day, Dai Qingyun was putting on his clothes when he heard Dai Qingrong's voice from the kitchen.

"It's done, the soap is formed!"

This sound attracted the whole family who had just woken up to go to the kitchen.

Dai Qingyun managed to squeeze in.

"Yun'er, Yun'er, look, is this what you said it has taken shape!"

Seeing Dai Qingyun coming, Dai Qingrong asked excitedly.

Dai Qingyun nodded, "Yes, this is soap, father, please cut this soap evenly, one piece of this size will do."

Dai Zhixiao scratched a few times with the knife, and took out a small piece of soap from the side.

Then a group of people went to the yard again and asked Qingrong to get a dirty dress. Dai Qingyun wet the clothes with soap, rubbed them for a while, picked them up and saw that the collar of the clothes was clean!
"It's done, it's done!!" Dai Qingyi couldn't help exclaiming.

"Not bad." Grandpa Dai nodded, and looked at Dai Qingyun with satisfaction, his eyes were full of smiles.

"I just said that Yun'er is smart!" Saburo said happily. Since the accident happened at home, he hasn't been so happy for a long time. Finally, he can continue to study!

Da Lang also happily put his arms around San Lang's shoulders, he knew why San Lang was so happy, no matter how sensible he was, he still wanted to study earlier...

"Mom, I can go to town and help sell soap!"

As expected of Mrs. Zhao, she knew right away that she wanted to take on this easy job.

"Grandma, grandma, how do you say the price of this soap?"

Dai Qingyun didn't seem to hear what Zhao said, but instead looked at the two old people.

"It cost a total of 250 Wen to buy pork suet and salt, and about [-] pieces of soap are made from one mold, and [-] pieces are made from five molds."

"I think it's twenty cents a piece, and it won't be too cheap. The average family can afford it. Grandpa, grandma, what do you think?"

Both Mrs. Lin and Mr. Dai nodded, "Yes, the price is reasonable."

Dai Qingyun immediately said, "Grandma, grandma, although the craft of making soap is simple, but since the Xuan Dynasty did not have it, it means that this craft is the secret recipe of our Dai family, so..."

After all, she opened her innocent eyes and looked at the people in the yard.

Grandpa Dai understood, "Well, what Yun'er said is right, you all keep your mouths shut, if anyone dares to have any thoughts, the family law will take care of them!"

Immediately, Mrs. Lin also said, "If anyone dares to reveal half of it, I will let you know that your mother is not a vegetarian."

Although the tone of the two old men was flat, they still made everyone tremble. After all, they have all been fortunate enough to understand the Dai family law...

Not to mention Lin's methods of torture...

"Yes, yes, what parents said is true."

"Of course we won't reveal half of what parents said."

"Brother is right, this is a way to make money for our Dai family."

"Okay, okay, let's have breakfast first, what should we do?"

Lin is too lazy to listen to these flattering words, except for her few good grandsons, other guys don't care.

After dinner, Dai Qingyun asked Lin Shi and Li Shi to help sew coarse cloth bags for soap, and Dai Qingyu Dai Qingyi also joined the team of sewing bags.

She and Dai Qingrong cut all the remaining molds into uniform blocks.

I was busy until noon when the whole family came back for dinner.

While eating, Zhang Li is coming.

"Have Lizheng eaten yet, let's have some together."

The old man stood up and said hello.

"I've eaten, I've just come back from town."

Zhang Lizheng replied with a smile, he was about the same age as old man Dai, but he looked much more vicissitudes than old man Dai.

"It's a hot day, drink some herbal tea first."

After drinking tea, Zhang Lizheng finally explained his intention.

It turned out that Zhang Lizheng was invited to the town for a drink yesterday, and he heard that the private school in the town was short of a teacher, so he quickly recommended Mr. Dai.

Then today after waking up, he came to Dai's house.

"Thank you Lizheng, you have a heart." Mr. Dai couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He has been in the officialdom for many years. Such a simple person is even more touching.

After returning to the village for so long, most of the villagers felt sorry for knowing the cause and effect. They only felt that the Dai family was implicated and that it was very helpful to their family.

"You're being polite. Speaking of which, your father and my father still have some cousins. I should call you brother."

Zhang Lizheng took a sip of tea and sighed again, "Besides, I know very well what you are like. You have to go back to the village to suffer this kind of punishment when you get old. With your talent and learning, you may be able to teach in the town. There are still a few talents."

"There are many variables in the officialdom. It is the greatest comfort for me that my family can be safe."

Mr. Dai once again thanked Zhang Lizheng for his help.

"Yun'er, hurry up, take a few pieces of that soap and give it to Zhang Lizheng."

"Hey……"

Dai Qingyun went into the house and took a small cloth bag, filled it with five pieces of soap, and sent it over.

"What is this?"

Zhang Lizheng looked curiously at the cloth bag in Dai Qingyun's hand.

Dai Qingyun hurriedly opened a bag, "Grandpa Lizheng, this is soap, it can be used to wash clothes, face, and bathe."

"It's a novelty. It must be very expensive. It's a must."

After hearing this, Zhang Lizheng waved his hands repeatedly.

"It's not expensive, it's made at home. Grandpa Lizheng, please take it."

Dai Qingyun handed over the soap.

Seeing that Zhang Lizheng refused to accept it, the old man pretended to be angry and said, "You have been in the village for so long, how much you have done for our family, this is just a few pieces of soap, please accept it quickly."

Zhang Lizheng wanted to refuse, so the old man directly stuffed the soap into his arms.

……

In the evening, after dinner, the whole family sat around the main room, sewing cloth bags by oil lamps.

"Hehe, Yun'er is really smart, I remember such methods." Qian said while working with a smile, "If all this soap is sold, there will be several taels of silver."

Mrs. Li was not very happy when she saw Mrs. Qian boasting about her daughter. It was not because of the money.

Mrs. Sun also said, "Yeah, I think this soap will sell well. In addition, Dad will go to a private school to teach. It won't take long for the family to live better."

As he talked, the smile on his face kept on, as if a good day was just around the corner.

Mrs. Zhao didn't speak, and didn't know what was on her mind.

"Today I made more than 100 bags. Tomorrow, Mingwu will take Yuer Yuner and a few girls to sell in the town."

Lin pressed her eyebrows, feeling a little tired.

Erlang, who was sitting under the eaves and sharpening the wooden sword for Shiro, immediately responded, "Got it."

Of course he would like to not have to work in the fields tomorrow.

"Mother, it's not safe for their little ones to go to the town, so let me go."

Mrs. Zhao said solemnly, "If it sells well, what if so much money is stolen?"

Lin raised her eyelids and was about to speak.

"Mother, don't worry, I can't lose money with me!"

Erlang patted his chest, anyway, he also studied martial arts with his master for four or five years in Daifu, okay?

Mrs. Zhao gave her son a hard look at the door.

"Don't worry, uncle, there are so many of us, there will be nothing wrong."

Dai Qingyun looked at Mrs. Zhao with a smile on his face. Mrs. Zhao was the one who had the most eyes in this family, and felt a little disgusted.

"Mingwu and Yu'er are both so old, it's time for them to exercise. The town is not far from Stone Village, so there's nothing to worry about."

Mrs. Lin glanced at Dai Qingyu from the corner of her eye. Obviously, Mrs. Lin found that Dai Qingyu's personality was getting more and more dull after so many days. Only her big-hearted mother didn't find anything.

Seeing Lin's words, Zhao didn't dare to say anything, but looked at Dai Qingyun unkindly.

Dai Qingyun acted as if he hadn't seen it, and was making a cloth bag on his own.
