After her husband died in battle, she relied on the villain cub to make a comeback.

Ye Zhizhi has a lot of money, but she lacks people who are willing and able to do it.

Since the sons and grandsons of the Xu family and the Li Zheng family wanted to make money, Ye Zhizhi simply bought twenty acres of fertile land.

Some were left to plant a second crop of rice before winter came, and the rest were lent to Aunt Xu and the others to grow strawberries.

Xiao Jingheng did take a look during this period. The old father whose heart was broken by his children raised his eyebrows, suddenly pinched Ye Zhizhi's chin, raised the man's little face, and looked up and down with squinted eyes.

He said slowly, "Strawberries, are they really found in the mountains?"

"Otherwise, you still bought it for me?"

When Ye Zhizhi felt that the next moment, he would have to say, "You are not Ye Zhizhi."

Unexpectedly, he slowly let go of his hand and said with a tired and impatient look, "It's quite fierce."

"I'm not only fierce, I can also bite people," Ye Zhizhi showed her little fangs, "If you have nothing to do, go to the old house and take care of your unreliable mother. Next time she does something bad, don't blame me. The autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves ruthlessly!”

Xiao Jingheng glanced at her and went back to his old house without saying whether he agreed or disagreed.

Ye Zhizhi punched his shadow twice.

What are you pulling at?How dare you pinch her chin!

Wait until she finally gets custody of five, oh no, four cubs!

She had to take a small leather whip and strip off Xiao Jingheng's shirt to let him know what it means to be perverted!

Ye Zhizhi clapped her hands. Si Zhu was sent to the town to study in tears early in the morning. When she was bored, she went to her old house to see how far it had been built.

I happened to see Xu Youcai and the others buying bricks, and they gave them an extra cart of clay, so I took Cheng Niuniu, Sanzhu, Wuya and Erzhu and the others to teach them how to make porcelain.

Of course, the reason why she knew how to make porcelain was because of a senior sister she met in her previous life. Her family was from a porcelain family.

The fired porcelain is a priceless treasure that was used to establish diplomatic relations between the two countries and was given to the president of the country!

The senior sister was willing to teach, so she learned some basics.

So much so that the rose porcelain bowls and lilac water cups used in her home were all made by herself.

It's just that the clay that Xu Youcai and the others brought is still red, purple, yellow, and white, and cannot be used directly. They need to be beaten into powder and then mixed together in different proportions.

And this ratio is the unique formula passed down from each family's ancestors. It can directly affect the texture and color of the ceramics in the later stage.

After the mud is prepared, it needs to be washed, put into a large tank to wake up, ferment, settle, and knead the mud.

"Mom, let me help you." Sanzhu said.

"The purpose of kneading the mud is to make the mud have tibia, otherwise there will be bubbles when it is burned. You are weak and can't use skill. Just watch this time first, no need to do it."

Soon, after the clay was kneaded, Ye Zhizhi took out a fist-sized piece of clay to make the embryo.

This is easy to say. Place the refined mud in the center of the rotating wheel, step on the pedal with your foot, keep the wheel rotating, and then start rubbing the mud.

The originally small piece of mud was quickly stretched and raised under Ye Zhizhi's skillful hands. After determining the height, his index finger and thumb were inserted into the center of the mud pillar to create an opening.

After laying the foundation, the leaves and branches will be decorated with details under the action of high-speed centrifugal force.

Soon, a drinking cup with a narrow top and a wide bottom was made.

It seems easy and simple.

Ye Zhizhi only did it once and got the feel of it, but the children at home were so anxious that they all clamored to play.

Ye Zhizhi reached out and gave instructions on how to rub the mud, how to raise the mud cone, find the center, open the mud pillar, and roll out various desired shapes, etc.

Not to mention the children, Xu Youcai and the others felt itchy just looking at it.

It's a pity that there is only a turntable that can be used to make porcelain, and the children have to take turns to play with it.

After all, Cheng Niuniu was an aunt, so she had to give in to a few cubs. Finally, she got started. Ye Zhizhi discovered that she was particularly talented and could pull out a vase-shaped clay embryo on the first try.

Ye Zhizhi's mind couldn't help but move, and he taught her more attentively.

If you want to make good porcelain, talent is on the one hand, and experience and sweat are on the other. You need to practice thousands of times, making it as natural as eating and drinking, and then you can become a true master.

When glazing, because there was no paint, Ye Zhizhi simply found a knife to carve.

The strength of these brats was either too strong or too weak, and the clay embryo was carved into a mess.

Only Cheng Niuniu's aesthetics is particularly outstanding.

The patterns on the surface of the porcelain are all exquisite, concise, presentable and pleasing to the eye.

Ye Zhizhi said simply, "Niuniu, from tomorrow onwards, don't follow your mother to sell pancakes and fruits. How about you learn how to make porcelain with me at home?"

As the old saying goes, a home without porcelain is not expensive, and a home without porcelain is not elegant. Porcelain has always been a luxury item used by princes and nobles.

The porcelain industry in this dynasty was very popular and very profitable, so there were many small workshops that fired clay porcelain.

However, the truly exquisite and profitable ones are egg-white glazed porcelain and celadon, which are mastered by the Gongsun family of Daqi and the Ji family of Dayong respectively.

People in the world respectfully call it "Southern Green and Northern White"!

Ye Zhizhi didn't plan to teach Niu Niu how to learn the southern green and northern white for fear of getting into trouble, but decisively chose the glaze color!

But there’s no rush, you have to buy some clay and practice for a few months, and think about it in the long term.

—

But when Cheng Niuniu was making porcelain.

Ye Zhizhi has been busy studying whitening pills and aphrodisiacs these two days.

Although the restaurants in the town make money, it is only small money after all, and cannot be compared with the county or prefecture.

Now that she has funds, she wants to return to her old business and buy a shop in the county town to sell medicine and treat diseases.

With this idea in mind, Ye Zhizhi locked himself in the room for two or three days. The sound of sparks popping from the alchemy furnace was heard, and the air was filled with the fragrance of medicinal herbs.

By the end of the month, Ye Zhizhi had just finished a hundred whitening pills and aphrodisiacs, and Li Zheng found her doorstep and said, "Ms. Ye, your new house is ready. I see there is a new one at the Big Buddha Temple in the county this month." At the temple fair, if you go and pray for a good time, you can move in!"

The Great Buddha Temple is a famous temple in Dayong.

There are only three temple fairs held every year.

Ye Zhizhi has grown so big that he has never been to a temple fair, so he immediately mobilized the whole family.

The cubs were so happy that they fell asleep early in the morning.

When they got up the next day, Ye Zhizhi took his four sons, rented Daqing's oxcart, and asked Daqing to take them to the county town.

This was Si Zhu's first trip to the county town. He danced happily and said, "Zhou Shangjin used to laugh at me for being a country bumpkin. He has never been to a temple fair to see a dragon dance. See if I don't slap his fat face!"

Zhou Shangjin is the fat man who previously mocked Si Zhu as not worthy of studying with him.

The two children bickered in the academy all day long.

As long as he is not bullied, Ye Zhizhi will not interfere at all.

The bullock cart stopped and stopped all the way, because it was a small road and a mountain road, so the driving was not smooth.

After finally driving the bullock cart smoothly for a while, Xiao Daqing outside suddenly stopped the bullock cart.

Under the huge inertia, the bodies of Ye Zhizhi and several cubs rushed forward quickly and almost missed being thrown away.

It was Ye Zhizhi who had quick eyesight and quick hands. He held onto the edge of the car and pulled a few kids to avoid the disaster.

Xiao Daqing was relieved when he saw that they were fine.

"What's going on?" Ye Zhizhi raised his head and frowned.

"Aunt Ye, please sit down for now. I'll go down and ask."

Xiao Daqing jumped off the bullock cart. Standing next to the bullock cart was a middle-aged woman wearing silk and satin. It was she who suddenly ran over to stop the bullock cart just now.

The woman shouted impatiently: "Brother, my wife's amniotic water has broken. Could you please take us to the temple in the county town so that the abbot can deliver the baby for our wife!"
