"No, I only have a thousand and a half. I don't have three thousand silk. The length is rare and the thickness is not good."

Mrs. Xu touched her hair and said to the camera as if chattering: "Well, everyone is bald, just like everyone who doesn't care about anything will die. We are still bald here, so it's useless to talk about it.

, can't stop malnutrition. When I'm old enough, I know better. After a night's sleep, it feels like my head turns into a dandelion and is gone when the wind blows."

You see the hair thing, and you start to complain that grandma is too fantasy in ancient times.

I had an unhappy day. I ate shit, and even beat him up at the gate tower for a while.

Happiness is just one day, making money, and having a live broadcast room.

That's it, I've been in ancient times for two days, what's the matter with Lao Jian?

Anyway, you can't believe it even if you beat someone to death.

Okay, okay, okay, in Changying, just think of it as watching a large-scale costumed rural pastoral struggle drama, a dinner drama, and a suspense drama about whether grandma is an ancient person.

Mrs. Xu: Speaking of which, she really has a long shadow.

Changying was laid off.

I was planning to support my granddaughter in college. I was employed again at that time. I had worked in various small businesses before.

Now that the water is boiling, Mrs. Xu simply faces the live broadcast and makes shampoo to wash her hair on the spot. After the hair is dry, she also plans to put the hair up on the spot for the veterans. Maybe she is a knack, after all, she relies on her memory for the first time.

She had never worn her hair in a bun, but she felt that as long as she could wear such long hair, her family would feel fresh.

It is a little regrettable that her granddaughter is just a camera and cannot be a model. Otherwise, Mrs. Xu really feels that she can attract a group of regular fans by dressing women of all ages in ancient hairstyles and clothes, and just broadcasting these every day.

In her eyes, this is all a business opportunity.

In order to turn new fans into old fans, she even introduced tricks to Cao Muhui.

"Family, look, grandma is pulling out the ashes from the stove for you. This is the ashes of ordinary straw burning. We call it Baicao Shuang. You wrap it in fine cloth and filter it with water. Do you see? After filtering the water, you can

It can make foam, so people in the village use it to wash their hair and wash their clothes. If you don't believe me, go back and ask the elderly at home, I guess many people used to wash it like this."

Mrs. Xu motioned to her assistant to take a close-up of the plant ash.

Xu Tianxin immediately opened his eyes and took a good photo.

Xu Tianxin wanted to add that the principle is that when potassium carbonate is hydrolyzed and becomes alkaline, it will dissolve oil. But then he thought about it, there are people in the live broadcast room who know better than her. It is unreasonable for her to interrupt like this.

Mrs. Xu took out another dark jar, lowered her head to see what was going on. She quickly took it away and rubbed it with her sleeve before introducing: "This is the residue left over from rapeseed oil extraction. Use the residue to smooth your hair.

Otherwise, your hair won’t grow smoothly and it will be messed up.”

It belongs to the ancient version of "conditioner".

Mrs. Xu only used a small part of the filtered plant ash water, not all of it.

She was instructing her granddaughter to water the back of her head with a gourd and gourd, while she pouted in front of the basin and squinted her eyes as she explained:

"I'm going to make alkali for the rest to make steamed buns and noodles.

Take a bowl of straw ash and two bowls of water, and leave it overnight according to this ratio. The filtered water will turn light yellow the next day. At that time, you will boil the water over high heat, and the dry noodles left at the bottom of the pot will be alkali.

.

Why can't you eat it? It's edible. If your family members are curious, I'll start broadcasting on time tomorrow morning. You can come and see me cooking soda."

Mrs. Xu never forgets to solicit customers all the time, and she really plans to cook more fried noodles once, as there is no alkaline noodles at home.

The steamed buns here are very sour in my memory, not spicy and not delicious.

And she used to open a ramen shop until she traveled through time.

That was really not a boast, it was too busy, and there were few relatives who could be trusted in modern times. My granddaughter advised me not to be too tired to commit the crime, otherwise I would have opened a branch long ago. At that time, she used the exclusive secret recipe of fluffy grass to make alkali.

Ramen agent. So steamed bun pies are not a problem for her. She has already mastered this kind of thing.

Mrs. Xu thought of this and specially shared it with her family members in the live broadcast room: "The alkaline rice dumplings made by burning sesame poles are delicious, and the ash from burning straw is almost tasteless. If you are curious, you can try it."

Mrs. Xu simply wiped her hair with a cloth.

This guy's face towel is as worn as a child's daddy ring. The rags we use to wipe the floor in modern times are softer than the ones we use here to wipe our faces.

Thinking of the children, Mrs. Xu looked at the "camera" and said, "Everyone knows that we use plant ash to make menstrual belts here, right? Children also use this for pads."

Therefore, plant ash is widely used, such as diapers in ancient times. It can also be used to wrap wounds. It is said that this stuff sterilizes and stops bleeding.

In addition: "After cutting the leeks, cover the roots with a layer of plant ash. The new leeks will grow better than the previous leeks. You can also use this thing to grow potatoes. Cut the sprouted potatoes into pieces and wrap them in them.

This Baicaoshuang can be planted in the soil, and the potatoes will grow much better and look better."

Mrs. Xu searched her memory, paused and continued: "People here have diarrhea, and the doctor who prescribes it also recommends eating cooked eggs dipped in plant ash." This is called the basic version of montmorillonite.

"There are also old people who use it to fill their coffins when they die. It can keep the body from rotting for a while. I know you don't believe it without asking. Then I'll ask someone who hasn't..."

Before Mrs. Xu could finish speaking, Xu Tianxin hurriedly stopped her and said, "Grandma, that one is not allowed to be broadcast."

It would be a pity not to let it be broadcast. If it were allowed to be broadcast live, the number of people would skyrocket.

And Mrs. Xu's next behavior gave everyone a new understanding of plant ash.

Just watch her finally stop looking up at her granddaughter and aim at the camera.

The old lady slipped away with her long, sparse hair hanging down to her legs, and soon she dumped out a pot of ugly and small autumn cucumbers from nowhere.

She sat on the small bench, first cut a cucumber into slices, then took out a handful of ashes from the stove and wiped it on.

Everyone in the live broadcast room: Do you want to perform a show of eating dirt?

As the sun set, in the courtyard surrounded by the side rooms on both sides of the Xu family and the two main houses, Mrs. Xu smiled at the camera with a wrinkled face. She felt that this scene should be a reflection of the peaceful times:

"Family members, let me teach you a dish. Mix cucumber slices with ashes. The plant ashes will absorb the moisture from the cucumbers. Once they are completely dry, you can press them with big rocks and store them for several months. You can eat them when you want.

Wash them with water. Even in winter, the cucumbers are still charred green after washing. Then you put some chili oil, some chopped green onion and coriander and soak them in soy sauce. Anyway, you can mix them with whatever you want to eat. These are small pickles. They are delicious.

Let's eat, some corn tortillas and some porridge.

It would be better if you use it to stir-fry sliced ​​meat. The fresh cucumber stir-fry won’t give off that flavor, but it’s particularly crispy and chewy. It’s also fragrant when used to make dumplings and stir-fry eggs. It’s a rare green color in winter here.

vegetable."

And it will also be an exclusive dish of Lao Xu’s family.

Because in my memory, the ancients here did not store cucumbers like this.

Mrs. Xu remembers that when she was a child, she heard her grandma say that they first started eating this way on the Jilin border, where there were Koreans. In the past, the Koreans had nothing to eat all year round and loved to study pickles. Gradually, this dish became available in the Northeast.

It’s a local dish. So I doubt it was originally introduced from that side, rather than being made by our ancestors in ancient times.

"Don't look at it. It's covered in mud and looks like it's buried. But if you clean it, it has a nice name, cucumber money."

After Mrs. Xu finished speaking, she dusted most of the cucumbers and hung them to dry. She reminded her granddaughter to ask the director to come over and wash her clothes. She had to go to the backyard to pee and couldn't hold it in any longer. These two

When going to the bathroom in the sky, she, an old lady, can hold it in for as long as she can, let alone her granddaughter. She just goes there if she can't help it. After the rain has soaked the maggots... I can't think too much about it, it's too disgusting. Wait for her.

When my son comes back, he must tidy up the latrine.

But the old lady didn't come back for a while.

Just looking at her, she was tying her trousers, using a wooden stick to watch her neighbors harvest cucumbers, and thinking about whether she wanted to buy all the cucumbers in the village.
