Chapter 1113 Famine and Natural Disaster 273

"Master, there are craftsmen in the palace. The servant and the father-in-law were sent directly to the hands of the craftsman Xu; he promised to make it as soon as possible, and the finished product can be seen tomorrow at most." Aunt Rong lowered her head and replied.

"Very good." Mingyi smiled and nodded, "Go and hurry up tomorrow. I'm in a hurry."

For distillation supplies, if there is no glass tube, you can only use copper or refined iron.

Refined iron will not rust after being refined, but it will contain some other factors; it may not be ideal during the distillation process, but it can still be used.

"Please remember, I will go and guard you early tomorrow morning." Grandma Rong chuckled.

"That's not necessary."

Mingyi couldn't help laughing, it was unkind to guard someone else's refining things.

Aunt Rong smiled and nodded, "Then just listen to the master and don't guard."

"Mother Rong, you are actually teasing the master." Mingyi shook her head and laughed, "Put away the things on the table, leave one set for me to send to the princess later, and send the remaining four sets home. Go; give one set to my mother, eldest aunt, second aunt, and grandmother. Which one of you is willing to go back? "

It doesn't matter to Aunt Zhao and Aunt Rong, they can go back or not; however, if the master wants them to give something to them, then they can go back.

Aunt Zhao spoke first, "Master, please come back. If there is anything you want to take, please bring it with me."

"I don't lack anything. The prince has prepared everything." It's like there is a living system at home, and another living system in the palace. No matter where you live, you will not be short of anything.

"Yes, that slave will clean up and come back."

Aunt Zhao walked to the table and put four sets of eight bottles into categories; then she took out a bamboo basket, which was covered with fine cotton cloth. In order to prevent the liquid in the bottles from dumping, Aunt Zhao also brought some Muslin is not a valuable fabric, it is just some rags sewn together.

It's not worth the money, but the color is very bright when all kinds of rags are put together.

Put the eight bottles into the basket and separate them with scraps of cloth to prevent them from colliding; they also fixed the directions of the bottles to prevent them from tipping over.

The cream is easy to say, but if the essence is poured over, it will overflow.

"Master, the servants have packed up and sent them back first; they will probably come back in the evening." Aunt Zhao estimated the distance to and from the house and how long it would take at the Cheng family.

Mingyi nodded, "Don't be in a hurry to come back and teach my mother how to use it. If it's too late, I'll come back tomorrow. I don't have much to do around me for the time being."

"I understand, my slave. Thank you for your consideration, Master."

"Come on, help me take care of my mother and the others."

Aunt Zhao carried the basket out of the palace. She met many villagers from Chengjiazhuang and Yuzhuang on the way. After asking, she found out that today was the market day of the two villages, and the market day of Yuzhuang was fixed. You can only ride on the ox cart in Zhuangzi on this day when you go to the market.

Of course, if you are willing to pay more money, you can ride on the bullock cart at any time.

But whoever is willing to pay such a large amount of money can spend as much as they can, or as little as they can; of course, there are also those who are not willing to spend money to ride in an ox cart, but choose to walk to Fucheng together. Going to the market is just for buying and selling some necessities. If you don’t lack anything at home, you won’t go to the market at all.

"Mother Zhao, aren't you with Mingyi? I heard that you followed Mingyi to the palace to play. Why are you the only one who came back? Where is Mingyi, isn't he coming back in the palace? If the palace is rich, if you are reluctant to come back It’s also normal.”

Four female relatives from Chengjiazhuang were walking back from the market, carrying baskets on their backs with a layer of linen spread on top.

"How do we servants know about the master's affairs? I'm here to help the master get things. You guys should go back slowly. I have to rush back because I have something to do, so I won't go with you."

If you encounter someone who casually inquires about someone else's private matters, stay away quickly; it doesn't mean that you can't talk about someone else's private matters, but the private matters they ask about are different.

It's okay to talk about innocuous personal matters in daily chat. If you have such a weird and eccentric person, if you have less contact, you will be led astray.

Now that she is old, she cannot be a bad learner and let her master drive her away.

"Look at how energetic she is. She's so proud that she doesn't even bother to pay attention to us." The woman who spoke completely changed her face and became indignant. After all, her reason was still there. She didn't talk loudly, but lowered her voice and whispered to the people around her. , "We are all from the Cheng family, tell me why there are so many differences between people; our family has worked hard to make money to live a good life, and they know how to climb high branches and seize powerful people at a young age. , look at how easy life is for other people.”

The three women next to him shook their heads.

One of them said: "It's their business to live a good life. Let's pay more attention to what's going on at home."

Whether you live well or not depends on your own efforts.

"That's right, people live a good life because they have the ability; let's not talk about whether they can climb or not, let's just say that Uncle Dazhu's life is not bad now, and his life is easy." The woman in Tsing Yi shook her head with a smile and said to her sister-in-law Luo's words were noncommittal, "Don't speak ill of other people's little girls behind their backs. Your girl is eight years old. Do you know what climbing a high branch is? You only know how to work every day, and you don't think about anything else."

A young girl, as long as she doesn't suddenly mutate and grow in the wrong direction; she was innocent before the age of ten, how could she expect so much.

The girls from farmers' families are even more innocent and innocent even in their teens; everything is taken care of by their parents. They work at home when they are not old enough, and when they are old enough, their parents choose someone to marry and continue to work.

It's not easy for them girls, why should they ruin their reputation?

The only woman who did not speak also smiled and persuaded, "Okay, please stop saying a few words. Our life in Zhuangzi is already very good. There is no need to compare with others. The good life of Uncle Dazhu's family is because of Mingyi. It’s not like we didn’t know that it was Mingyi who saved his son, so that we can live a stable life now. We have benefited from it, so keep your mouth shut. We don’t want to say good things about others, but we ask that we don’t hurt our benefactors. "

"This is exactly the reason. You can't be a person who picks up the bowl to eat and puts down the bowl to scold your mother."

"Speaking of which, Mingyi was lucky. Before we fled the famine, Uncle Dazhu's family was very good to the girls. Mingyi enjoyed the blessings at home. She had little work at the age of six or seven. There was no way out on the way to the famine. But now that we are gone, who would have thought that Mingyi’s blessing would benefit our entire Cheng family.”

The topic was corrected from the wrong place, and the woman who was unhappy at first did not dare to say any harsh words; just listening to them talking about how good Mingyi was, she was still jealous and jealous, wanting but not getting, grabbing Heart-wrenching pain.

It was so uncomfortable all the way back.

Aunt Zhao hurriedly shook off the woman who had just asked the question and hurried back. After entering the village, she did not stop and walked straight into the house before she was completely relieved.
