I bring my game account back to ancient times to do business

Chapter 28 Going out

Before the Meng Shaoqing brothers left, Qiao Yun took out a red lacquered and gold-painted wooden box containing various dried fruits, and placed a handful of homemade candies in each compartment.

Cut the dried red dates into small pieces, add water and finely crush them into a puree. Put them in a pot with maltose and boil them over low heat to form a bubbling syrup. Add in the walnuts that have been roasted in advance.

Cool in the mold and take it out to become soft, glutinous and sweet red date and walnut candy.

There are also various fruit hard candies made with honey, juice and water, yogurt citrus slices and toffee made from milk.

Not to mention traditional candies such as dragon beard cakes and sesame candies, she even took some of the candies that were too difficult to reproduce directly from the game.

There is no sweet girl who doesn’t like to eat sweets, especially a girl like Meng Shaoqing who is sweet to the core.

Meng Shaoqing's eyes widened when she saw such a dazzling box of candies.

She immediately picked out a small orange candy and put it in her mouth, squinting her eyes with satisfaction.

"It's orange-flavored candy. It turns out that fruit can also be made into candy. It's much more delicious than candy made from caramel."

It is extremely sweet, with a strong orange flavor, and the candy is so hard that you can hold it in your mouth for a long time.

Grandma will definitely like this delicious candy!

"It's delicious, but don't eat too much in one day. Make sure to rinse your mouth with water immediately after eating the candy! Wipe your teeth carefully before going to bed at night."

Meng Shaoqing kept nodding her head: "I have loved eating sweets since I was a child. My mother-in-law said so too. Every time I finish eating sweets, the nanny would stare at me and rinse my mouth before letting me do anything else."

"What do ordinary people use to clean their teeth? Willow?"

Bichan asked curiously.

She had seen this kind of wicker stick in the market. Soak it in water before using it. Take it out when you need to use it. Chew it with your teeth and bite it open. The willow branch will produce many thin and soft strips, like a brush. Use this kind of wicker to rub it back and forth.

Teeth can be cleaned, and three pennies can buy one. Many people who come to the market go back and buy two to take home.

The servants in the county magistrate's office also use this kind of wicker.

But the old lady, young ladies and young gentlemen are not willing to use this kind of wicker.

Most of them use small bone brushes, about the same length as chopsticks, with a flat end and many hard bristles embedded in them. After soaking in water, they are more effective than wicker brushes for brushing teeth.

But this is extremely expensive, and no one in Quwo County sells it. The Meng family bought their toothbrush in Taiyuan.

Qiao Yun was a little embarrassed, nodded perfunctorily, and agreed with this statement.

She always felt that bone toothbrushes were a bit intimidating, so the toothbrushes she and Xue Mei Niang used were wooden toothbrushes taken from the game! The bristles on the toothbrush head were fine bristles made of willow branches, not animal bristles.

It is definitely impossible to make this kind of toothbrush with the technology at this time.

But it's different in the game. She only needs to put the collected wood and willow branches on the synthesis table and read a message to make a toothbrush.

After being processed on the synthesis table, the willow branch becomes made of nylon filament. Although it still feels the same as a willow branch, it is extremely durable.

There's no way to explain this!

Bichan sighed and smacked her lips: "Miss Qiao is a very tidy person! I was not born in the palace, so my mother never taught me how to brush my teeth. She only gargled my mouth. After I entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, my wife taught me

Well done."

At this point, she felt ashamed again.

I was the one who said someone else was unclean in the kitchen just now.

She did not hesitate and immediately bowed deeply and sincerely: "I was offended just now. It was my fault. I'm really sorry."

Meng Shaoheng glanced at the two of them in surprise: "She still offended you?"

"Nothing, nothing." Qiao Yun quickly waved her hand, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."

"Sister Ayun, let's go first~"

She did not plan to tell Qiao Yun about this until A Niang agreed to take them into her house for the New Year. If A Niang had not let go, wouldn't she have made her sister happy in vain?

Meng Shaoqing pulled her brother out of the store.

Qiao Yun stood at the door, watching the brothers and sisters go away, thinking deeply in her heart.

Going to Meng's house to celebrate the New Year... It would be okay if I was alone.

When Xue Mei Niang was involved, she became a little hesitant.

That's all, I'd better ask her about this before making a decision.

When the two brothers and sisters turned around and disappeared, Qiao Yun closed the shop and locked it again.

After clearing the dishes and looking at the remaining half of the pot of mutton soup and sesame seed cakes, Qiao Yun wanted to give them a favor.

The weather has been pretty good these days, and the snow on the road has almost melted, so you don’t have to worry about falling while carrying the food box.

She asked Lu Zheqiu to send over a double-layered ceramic thermos bucket.

The inner tank of this thermal insulation barrel is made of copper, and the outside is covered with a thick layer of white porcelain. The inner tank can be taken out separately. The ceramic is extremely thick, and the insulation effect is originally good, but there is no matching lid, so you can only use a wooden lid.

Cover it with gauze and tie it tightly with a tie to prevent the cover from falling off.

As a result, the thermal insulation effect will be greatly reduced.

Qiao Yun had no choice but to get another basket that could hold the thermos bucket.

After making so much sugar, Qiao Yun also stuffed a red lacquered wooden box for sugar into the basket, then filled the gaps in the basket with straw and covered the basket with a mattress.

Qiao Yun put the basket on the stove and went back to the house to change clothes.

Xuemei Niang was in the house holding a poker to poke the charcoal in the charcoal stove, and noticed her movements.

"Where are you going?"

"Wang's family. Oh, this is the former owner of this store." Qiao Yun opened the closet, took out a set of clothes and laid them on the couch. She took off her home clothes and tied up her skirt.

"Auntie, are your feet feeling better?"

Xue Mei Niang immediately understood the underlying meaning of Qiao Yun.

"You want me to go with you?"

Qiao Yun nodded, stopped tying her ear knots, and looked at Xue Mei Niang, with a hint of concern in her eyes.

"It's been a month since you've been here, and you haven't gone out for a month. This will wear out your body."

Xue Mei Niang was silent for a moment.

Want to go out?

She looked down at her legs.

It turned out that my leg injury had completely healed at some point, and only the layer of blood scab on the outside remained.

The medicine can be completely stopped.

She should have left long ago.

But she would rather her injury hadn't healed yet, so that she could continue to stay by Kidney Bean's side. She didn't have to go out, and she should be greedy for the care Kidney Bean gave her.

Xue Mei Niang bit her lip, trying to wake herself up.

She took a deep breath, raised her head, and responded to Qiao Yun's gaze calmly.

"I'll go with you."

She can no longer hide behind a child. Complacency should not be her style.

Maybe that person is nearby, or maybe he's not there. It would be better if he is there, to lure him out and settle the matter, so that you don't have to continue to flee without seeing the light of day.

It's a blessing or a curse, but it's time to take that step.

She put the poker in the corner, stood up and rubbed her hands on her apron: "Help me choose some clothes."

Qiao Yun raised her eyebrows with joy and responded with a smile: "Okay."

Xue Mei Niang is just a clothes hanger, she looks good in anything she wears.

Qiao Yun brought her a crab-shell green jacket and a three-panel dark blue chest-length skirt. Such dark-colored clothes could make her look like everyone's mistress. It was really her

So beautiful.

Since the two were still in the "filial piety period", Yun Xuemei only wore a beige silk flower on her bun. She didn't add too many jewelry.

"Here you go." Qiao Yun handed over a curtain hat.

The bamboo hat only hangs a piece of light gray gauze in front of the face that does not block the view, and most of the remaining circle is surrounded by dark gray linen that is not light enough.

"If you don't want to be recognized by others, just wear it!"

Xue Mei Niang smiled knowingly, took it and put it on her head.

The two of them carried each other and carried the basket to Mrs. Wang's house.

Please give me a monthly pass, please add it to your collection, please give me a recommendation vote, okay (′3｀)
