Farmhouse with a little field

Chapter 457 New Ideas

After thinking about this, Xiaonian's attitude towards his family has undergone subtle changes, but because Han Duyue also has his own concerns, he hasn't noticed it yet.

Han Duyue came back to her senses, and there was already a smile on her face: "Xiao Nian, I just thought of a way, maybe it can help you a little, but I have to try it first to know the effect. "

"Sister, what good idea did you come up with?" Xiaonian looked at Han Duyue and smiled. He liked to see Han Duyue's bright eyes and a deep smile, because such eyes seemed to have a special infection Power will make people who see it feel very happy.

Han Duyue blinked, pretending to be mysterious and said: "This is a secret. Well, you should hurry up and eat, or this dish will be cold, I am really tired, so I will go back to my room to rest first , don’t go to bed too late, although reading is indeed important, but the most important thing is your body, you understand?”

"Sister, don't worry, I will take care of myself." Xiaonian nodded again and again, it feels so good to be cared about.

"By the way, where are your pens and papers?" Han Duyue yawned and glanced around, "I originally planned to go directly to Fucheng tomorrow, but now I have changed my mind, maybe I will go here If I stay for two more days, I need to write a letter to Song Ning, telling him not to worry about me."

Xiao Nian was naturally happy that Han Duyue could stay in the county for a few more days, so he immediately got up to help Han Duyue fetch paper and pens: "Sister, how are things in Fucheng now, that shop is still open went well?"

"It's all good. You know that your brother-in-law is capable." Han Duyue said with a smile, not shy at all.

Xiaonian pursed his lips and smiled: "I know Brother Song is very capable, but I also know how capable you are, sister. You must have helped Brother Song a lot."

"Haha, it seems right for you to say that." Han Duyue was writing a letter here, and Xiaonian was eating there. The two talked one after another, and the atmosphere seemed very harmonious.

After finishing writing the letter, Han Duyue didn't dare to bother Xiao Nian any more, and went back to her room to rest. As for Xiao Nian, she would naturally continue to fight at night with the lights on.

When Han Duyue got up the next day, Xiaonian had already gone to the county school, she had a casual breakfast, and then began to implement the previous idea.

Han Duyue remembers hearing that one of the first methods of heating lunch boxes was to use the principle of quicklime to heat up when it meets water to quickly heat the food in the box.

But Han Duyue had never seen this method before, and naturally she didn't know how effective it would be. The reason why she stayed in the county for two more days was to conduct this experiment.

If she can succeed this time, then she may not only be able to help Xiaonian, but also very likely to find a new way to make money.

Of course, before that, Han Duyue must first determine whether this thing can quickly and safely heat a meal or several meals. If this is successful, Han Duyue will also consider the production of this matter Cost, after all, if the cost of quicklime is more than the cost of a meal, then everyone may not be willing to use it.

After eating, Han Duyue asked the servants in the family to help prepare quicklime. This thing is very common now, and he bought half a bag of it not long after.

Putting down the quicklime, the servant even specially warned: "Miss, be careful. If this thing touches water, it will easily burn your hands. That's what the person who sold me just said."

"I know, don't worry." Han Duyue secretly smiled, what she wanted to use was the characteristic of quicklime.

But when she opened the bag, she was not so happy, because the quicklime she bought was almost gray in color, and it was obviously mixed with a lot of impurities, so the chemical reaction with water might also be affected.

But no matter what, you still have to try it before you know the effect. Han Duyue asked someone to prepare two porcelain bowls, one large and one small, and some clear ones, a bowl of rice, a few steamed buns, and the leftovers from the morning. For some dishes, she needs to experiment with the effect of heating these foods one by one.

The first time I used water, Han Duyue stacked two porcelain bowls together, put quicklime in the middle, then poured water into the small porcelain bowl, then added water to the quicklime, covered it, and waited for a certain period of time Observe the effect.

The next few steps are similar, just change the things in the porcelain bowl to see what the effect is.

In the end, the effect of the experiment was not bad. The cold water became warm water. Although the internal heat of the rice was uneven, it was good to stir it.

The most tangled thing is the steamed stuffed bun. The outer skin and the outer filling are both hot, but the innermost filling is still at room temperature. Such an effect is not a problem in this season, but if it is in the cold winter...

For this reason, Han Duyue tried a few more times, changing the way of adding water to the quicklime, as well as the amount of quicklime, and finally heated the buns completely.

After experimenting with all these, although it feels a little troublesome, at least the result is good, but it is impossible for this thing to be promoted, at least the problem of Xiaonian's eating alone has been solved.

After Xiaonian came back in the evening, Han Duyue talked about it with Xiaonian: "I thought of a way before, maybe it can solve your problem of eating."

"What method did my sister think of?" Xiaonian looked at Han Duyue expectantly.

Han Duyue didn't say much, but just demonstrated the previous things in front of Xiaonian: "Quicklime will emit heat when it meets water, and the food can be heated with the help of this heat. Although it didn't heat things to a very high temperature The degree, but at least it tastes warm, so you won't eat cold things.

In the future, you can prepare meals in advance and take them directly to the county school. When it's time to eat, you can use this method to heat up the meals, and you can eat them directly. "

"Sister, it's amazing that you can think of such a method." Xiaonian praised without hesitation, and he became more and more sure that his previous changes were correct.

If she hadn't told Han Duyue the truth, she wouldn't have thought of this method to solve her problem.

Han Duyue smiled, pretending to be proud and said: "That's natural, but with this method, you must pay attention to safety, quicklime will be very hot when it meets water, so when heating food, you must not use your hands or other body parts Touch it, otherwise it will easily cause burns, you know?"

"I know, I will definitely pay attention." Xiaonian nodded quickly to promise.

Han Duyue nodded in satisfaction, stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiaonian's head: "Tomorrow, I will help you think about how to store this thing so that you can take it to school, okay, you can go to bed earlier, I won't bother you you."

After all, with Qiu Wei in front of her eyes, Han Duyue didn't dare to take up too much of Xiao Nian's time.

"Sister," Xiaonian called out. After Han Duyue looked over, Xiaonian continued slowly, "It's good to have you here, thank you."

Han Duyue's heart skipped a beat, but there was only a warm smile on his face: "Silly boy, I'm your own sister, why are you being polite to me?"

"I just said it casually. It's really a good idea, sister." Xiaonian scratched his head embarrassingly.

"It's fine if you're satisfied," Han Duyue waved his hand, "Okay, I'm going back to my room to rest, so don't go to bed too late."

"I know, I will take good care of myself." Xiaonian nodded obediently.

After walking out of the room, the smile on the corner of Han Duyue's mouth also faded a little, but it never disappeared.

Maybe, maybe everything is really as she imagined, Xiaonian has already noticed the difference, guessed the truth, but so what?

They are still relatives, Xiaonian is her own brother, and she is Xiaonian's own sister, nothing can change, so what is she worrying about?

Han Duyue tapped her forehead with a smile, and walked briskly back to her room. Behind her, Xiaonian was standing at the window, watching Han Duyue's back all the time, with a warm and reassuring smile on the corner of her mouth. A satisfied smile.

After Han Duyue disappeared, Xiaonian breathed a sigh of relief, opened his mouth slowly, and murmured in a barely audible voice: "Sister, it's good to have you here."

Everything is so beautiful, because they are relatives, people who have shared weal and woe together.

The next day, Han Duyue worked on it for another day, and finally made a portable heating pack, which was carried directly in the bag. When it was time to eat, just put the lunch box inside and add water.

Han Duyue also took this opportunity to inquire about the source and price of quicklime. Quicklime is quite common here, and the price is relatively cheap, but if you buy it for hot meals, it seems that it is not very cost-effective.

The most terrible thing is that this heating method can only be used once and cannot be reused. In other words, new quicklime must be replaced every time, which is both troublesome and a waste of quicklime.

Such a result is obviously not satisfactory. Even if you want to make further plans, you can only wait until winter. After all, in a hot day, who would be willing to spend money to buy something that heats meals?After all, even if the food is cold now, it’s okay to eat.

But at least Xiaonian's eating problem was solved. After Han Duyue designed the heating pack, he called the servants at home to explain and demonstrate in detail the usage of the heating pack and the method of changing materials. , Only then did I feel relieved.

Counting the time, she has already stayed in the county for two days, and she has almost done what she should do, and it is time to start on the road again.

In the evening, after Xiaonian came back, Han Duyue demonstrated again, and said, "Right now you are busy studying and preparing for Qiu Wei, and I have nothing else to do. I plan to go to Fucheng tomorrow."

"Sister, you are leaving so soon." Xiaonian was a little bit reluctant. Since he came to the county to study, Xiaonian seldom saw his family, especially when he was in a different place and saw his family, he would Feel happier and more sad.
