Lady Caisang: My husband is a little sweet

Chapter 159 Where is the chain

In the middle of the night, it really started to rain, and the brazier had already been brought over, the charcoal was lit, covered with plant ash, and the whole charcoal basin was placed under the plaque, so that the temperature on the silkworm plaque would not be too low.

When it was about dawn, there was still thunder, Gu Qingya was busy protecting the planting cloth above the silkworm ants, while Liu Bingbing was busy worshiping the horse-headed lady, and at the same time inserted the peach thorns that had been sent before in the door On, and on his own head, to drive away the unknown.

In short, the silkworm boil didn't start very well this time, and there was a thunderstorm. Given the fragility of the ice jade silkworm, even if all the preparations were made, it would not know how much impact it would have.

Fortunately, the rain did not continue, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.

During the day, after Gu Qingya and Liu Bingbing removed the brazier and added mulberry leaves, they were relieved to find that the silkworm ants were very energetic. Even so, they did not dare to take it lightly and continued to pay attention. The silkworm ants are about to be separated immediately.

For several days in a row, Gu Shi was so busy that he ran around every silkworm room to make sure there was no problem.The seed cloth left last year was several times that of the previous year, and this year, both good and bad have hatched, and therefore, management is more complicated.

When Gu Qingya saw Gu Shi, she lost a lot of weight, and her heart ached immediately, but she couldn't help her, after all, she still didn't learn enough!

Fortunately, the weather was fine for the rest of the day. Seven days later, the ice jade silkworm went to sleep smoothly, and Gu Shi, who had been tired for several days, could relax a little and sleep well.

The sleep of the silkworm is expensive, and the sleep is also the same.When silkworms are going to sleep, they stop eating mulberry leaves and start spinning silk. At this time, they will have silkworm sand on their bodies. At this time, the silkworm sand will be removed from the silkworms and put into a special curtain. account.

After the silkworms molt for the first time, they have to divide them into baskets one by one. The first meal they eat of mulberry leaves after molting is called mulberry leaves, and they usually eat more. The main reason is to observe the color change of their mouths to give them mulberry leaves. .

Different silkworms have different standards. Gu Shi told the silkworm boiler a long time ago that she took a nap and went to see her daughter's situation first when she woke up.

The second sleep is faster than the first sleep, and it only takes four days. It is not much different from the first molt. After the second sleep, it enters the period of fire. From then on, it is the busiest time.

One is that the food intake of silkworms increases, and the other is that silkworm excrement increases, which is very troublesome, especially when it comes to the third molt.The common method now is to watch the time. When it is almost time to sleep, add a fine net and place mulberry leaves on it. After the silkworms climb up, pull up the net to clear most of the silkworm excrement. It is a really good method.

Especially when it comes to sleep, we have to catch silkworms and weigh them into baskets.But at this time, the size of the silkworms has become larger, and the silkworm baskets can no longer be satisfied, so it is necessary to spread the floor, that is, to lower it to the ground.

Straw should be spread on the ground first, and then thatch should be spread to prevent humidity and heat. In addition, silkworm benches should be arranged and so on.

At this time, the amount of cannibalism increases. At this time, there is no need to pick the tender mulberry leaves. The ones without water vapor are all placed on the branches. The sound of silkworms eating in a whole silkworm room is no different from that of the shower.

And at night, there is almost no time for deep sleep. After a while, I have to get up to add mulberry leaves, and at the same time check the situation around the silkworm room for fear of insects and ants. It is not a joke to do it more than a dozen times a night.

At the same time, the number of cats watching the night outside the silkworm chamber has also increased a lot, and there are always mice running from other places just about to move. If you listen carefully, you can hear the squeaks that stop abruptly from time to time amidst the rustling sounds.

When the silkworms are about to go up the mountain to cocoon, because the silkworms are on the ground at this time, the mountain tents that have been made long ago will be hung from the roof, and there will be reed curtains, and straw brooms will be erected on the tents.

After all the silkworms have climbed onto the broom, they also need to use a charcoal basin underneath for a day, and use a burning charcoal fire to warm them up for a day.

It takes five days for silkworms to pupate after cocooning, and the time for ice jade silkworms is a bit longer, so during this period of time, everyone can catch up on a good night's sleep, and then wait to go back to the mountain to pick cocoons, and then continue. Cocoon reeling is another laborious task.

"So tired, so tired, Qingya, go to sleep." Liu Bingbing yelled, moved her body, fell asleep after saying this, and even snored a little.

Gu Qingya looked at the roof with her eyes open, recalling the nearly one month of boiling silkworms, and summed it up in her heart, after all, it is impossible to be perfect in all aspects, how can you find mistakes if you don't think about it?

This sleep was deep, Gu Qingya didn't enter the library, and when she got up, she felt very energetic. After looking at it, Gu Shi was also sleeping, her eyes were black and blue. As the instructor of the ice jade silkworm, she It consumes more minds and is more tiring than anyone else.

Quietly out the door, Gu Qingya filled her stomach and went to her silkworm room to watch. At this time, there were still a few people guarding her, mainly because they were afraid that if the doors and windows were not closed properly, they would be affected by the wind.

Jiang Rongan and Wu Xiang were ordered by their elders to come to comfort everyone with a rich meal, but found that most of them were still sleeping. Wu Xiang felt bored and ran away early. He wanted to see the situation of the cocoon, although I haven't experienced it myself, but I still need to have a general understanding.

"Why don't you go to sleep?" Jiang Rongan frowned slightly, looking at the black and blue under Gu Qingya's eyes, he knew that boiling silkworms was hard work, but looking at Gu Qingya's appearance, he was more tired than he thought.

Seeing Jiang Rong'an suddenly, Gu Qingya was stunned for a moment, and when she heard his words, she was two beats behind before she realized, "I woke up after a nap, come over to check on the situation."

Opened his mouth, Jiang Rongan didn't know what to say, "Go to sleep again, your body is important."

Gu Qingya tilted her head and looked at Jiang Rong'an, as if she hadn't seen him for a long time, and she seemed to have grown a lot taller, "It's okay, does Young Master Jiang need to find my mother?"

"It's okay, just bring something for everyone to eat, but they all seem to be sleeping."

"Qingya waits for everyone to thank Young Master Jiang first." Gu Qingya bowed, feeling that it would be weird to continue talking, "It's okay, Qingya will leave first."

"Wait a minute, what good book have you dreamed about recently?" Jiang Rongan lowered his voice, thinking about it carefully, it seemed that he hadn't seen Gu Qingya for a long time, and Yan Qinghe didn't seem to ask himself anything else, eh , Is this defending yourself?
Hearing this, Gu Qingya couldn't help being startled, she raised her head and looked at Jiang Rongan, and quickly thought of a countermeasure in her mind, "How can I control my dreams, I have never dreamed again, I'm sorry to disappoint the young master."

"Really?" Jiang Rong'an said lightly, but his gaze swept across Gu Qingya's neck, and he frowned slightly, "Where's the chain I gave you?"
