Bind the system and take your younger siblings to survive in the disaster years
Chapter 167 What do you know?
After drying the soil on the base, Li Qingxiu then layered the yellow mud around the dry and hard round base to build it into a large upside-down bowl shape, and the top could not be sealed.
The fire in the two grooves cannot be broken because the large inverted bowl-shaped earthen kiln needs to be dried. While waiting for the drying process, the entire earthen kiln will gradually crack.
At this time, Li Qingxiu needed to take a wooden board to the earthen kiln and beat it until it was baked in the earthen kiln until it hardened and finalized.
After the earthen kiln is built, the next step is to burn the limestone. Li Qingxiu saw that some lime rocks were too big, so she knocked them into smaller pieces.
Small pieces of limestone are also conducive to firing. Finally, Li Qingxiu put these small pieces of rock into the earthen kiln.
Then he kept adding firewood and let the fire burn the limestone in the kiln thoroughly.
Li Zheng watched the whole process and once again lamented that Li Qingxiu was really their lucky star in Lihua Valley. Among the hundreds of people who came here, no one except Li Qingxiu knew how to make an earthen kiln for burning lime.
At this time, Li Dazhuang asked Li Qingxiu: "Qingxiu, how long will this burn?"
This was Li Qingxiu's first operation, and she didn't know whether it would be successful.
Li Qingxiu could only say conservatively: "This is also my first time to do it. I don't know if it will work yet. Anyway, let's try it for a day and see if it doesn't work. If it doesn't work, it will take longer."
Li Datian was surprised: "It actually takes so long to burn! We need a lot of lime to build houses for so many of our families. It takes so long to burn just this earthen kiln. What should we do?"
Li Qingxiu nodded and said: "Yes, that's why I asked you to add more yellow mud to build more kilns. Anyway, there are a lot of limestone here."
Everyone agreed upon hearing this, so they all learned the method Li Qingxiu had just made, and worked hard for a long time to make five more clay kilns.
When Widow Jia saw that Li Qingxiu and Li Zheng had built another earthen stove, she thought that her job was going to be gone, but that was not the case. The whole team only had an easier job of cooking, and she did not want to lose this job.
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became, so she came over to find out what was going on. Once she found out about it, she realized that it was Li Qingxiu who made the clay kiln to bake lime.
Widow Jia felt relieved and flattered Li Qingxiu: "Nie Qingxiu, you are really amazing. Is there anything else you can't do? You are so capable!"
Li Qingxiu naturally knew what Widow Jia meant. She just smiled slightly and said: "I learned these in books. I used to read his books when my father was still alive."
Li Qingxiu felt that this was not a lie. It was indeed from the book. The knowledge in the short video was also considered an e-book!
It was already time for dinner, and Li Qingxiu, who had been busy all day, was already hungry.
She was also thinking about Qingfeng Li and Li Qingxiao, especially Qingfeng Li. He was probably hungry now, thinking about why his sister didn't go back.
Six earth kilns are already firing limestone. Li Qingxiu told Li Zheng that as long as people take turns to watch and don't let the fire stop burning until this time tomorrow, they can check the firing effect.
After the explanation was clear, Li Qingxiu washed her hands by the pool and returned to the thatched cottage.
As soon as I entered the thatched cottage, I saw Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen were there. One of them was feeding Li Qingxiao, and the other was greeting her for dinner.
Li Ziyue and Li Xiaocao were still here. When everyone saw Li Qingxiu coming in, they all invited her to come over for dinner. Qingfeng Li smiled very happily when he saw Qingxiu Li coming back.
When Li Qingxiu saw the food in the bowl, she couldn't help but be stunned. The big and small Chen's made noodles!
Li Qingxiu said: "First aunt, second aunt. Where did the noodles come from?"
Li Qingxiu asked this question because she was worried that Mr. and Mrs. Chen would give them their own food again.
Mr. and Mrs. Chen looked at each other and then smiled at Li Ziyue, while Li Ziyue puffed up her little chest.
"That was given by my father. My father said that you have made a significant contribution to the construction of the valley, so your family naturally needs to have better food. No, Li Xiaocao and I are both relying on your light."
Li Qingxiu felt much better after hearing this. Li Zheng was a man who knew what to do. But she still said: "There is no need to contribute, we are all from the same valley!"
It was getting dark after dinner, and Li Qingxiu then thought of collecting the chrysanthemums that were hanging outside. If he didn't collect them, he was afraid that dew would wet the chrysanthemums in the morning, and all his efforts would be in vain.
But when she walked to the place where the chrysanthemums were drying, she saw Mrs. Chen, Mrs. Chen, Widow Jia and Zhou Xinghua already harvesting chrysanthemums.
As soon as Widow Jia saw Li Qingxiu coming, she waved Li Qingxiu back. "No need to come, go back, we will put the chrysanthemum away!"
Li Qingxiu came over after seeing this. "Thank you, auntie, I just remembered to put the chrysanthemums away. But I'd better put these chrysanthemums in my house, my house has a lot of space."
Mrs. Chen and Widow Jia thought it was true when they heard it. After all, they still sleep in a thatched shed.
But Zhou Xinghua misunderstood what Li Qingxiu meant. She thought that Li Qingxiu was afraid that they would steal the chrysanthemum. The two sisters-in-law also said how good Li Qingxiu was.
The more she looks at it now, the more she feels that Li Qingxiu is not good. They had good intentions and helped clean up the chrysanthemums, but in the end, Li Qingxiu mistakenly thought they were petty thieves.
So Zhou Xinghua said: "Qingxiu, don't worry, we are not that kind of people, and these worthless wild chrysanthemums are nothing to worry about."
Zhou Xinghua also knew that Li Qingxiu wanted to sell these wild chrysanthemums, but she felt that this business would not succeed.
The teahouses all drink famous teas like Biluochun Maojian and so on. Who would drink these wild chrysanthemum teas? Even if it could be sold, it would probably only be worth a few pennies, just some hard-earned money.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen looked at each other, and their brows wrinkled slightly and imperceptibly. Sister-in-law, what's wrong? How could you say such a thing?
Widow Jia was not happy when she heard this, and she choked back and said: "Hey! You are just a village woman, what do you know? My pretty niece's father is a scholar, she is also literate and has read many books. She said this Chrysanthemums are worth money.”
"You..." Zhou Xinghua was choked with anger by Widow Jia.
Widow Jia put her hands on her hips and continued: "What are you! I'm right. Can you, who can't read a single Chinese character, understand better than my niece?"
"Is it wrong for my pretty niece to say that her house is big? Do I want to put these chrysanthemums in your place? You guys all sleep in a straw hut. It's so crowded that there's nowhere to put it? Today I think it's clear. , you are the kind of person who puts your little heart in other people’s stomachs.”
Li Qingxiu's head is full of black lines. What does it mean to put your little heart in someone else's belly? Widow Jia probably meant to use the heart of a villain to save the heart of a gentleman.
But after hearing what Widow Jia said, the depression in Li Qingxiu's heart also dissipated. The more she looked at Widow Jia, the more she found her cute, and the unhappiness she felt before was gone.
