Mr. Ye breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay. I'm just afraid that you won't be able to remember what happened when you escaped."

However, this also reminded her of what the master had said before, so she said nothing more.

It’s good that my daughter has gotten better.

Jiang Yunmian worked quickly and quickly packed up the chicken feathers. She said, "Mom, I will take these chicken feathers out to dry in the sun and burn them as grass."

Although Jiang Yunmian is only eight years old, he has also learned the habit of frugality and is reluctant to waste anything. Chicken feathers can be used as firewood when not used, otherwise it will be wasted if they are thrown away.

Moreover, chicken feathers can also be used to ignite fires when dried. Otherwise, it would be difficult to ignite the firewood if it is wet.

When Jiang Zhiluo heard that chicken feathers were being used as firewood, she felt it was a waste.

"Mom, all these chicken feathers are wasted as firewood. I thought that if I wash and save these chicken feathers, I can make a mattress. A mattress made of chicken feathers or duck or goose feathers will be very warm."

"Furthermore, if you want to make a bellows, you also need to use some chicken feathers."

When making the bellows, you also need to put the wind board with chicken feathers into the bellows at the end so that it can be pulled up and used easily.

Mr. Ye was stunned. They had never tried to use chicken feathers to make a mattress.

Maybe my daughter is right, you can try making a mattress and use it if it feels warm.

Their winter quilts are all old cotton quilts. They have been used for many years and are not very warm.

But fresh cotton is really expensive. There are many children in the family and I can't afford so many quilts, so I can only continue to use old quilts and mattresses.

But this is a cold northern land, and winter is really cold.

If you can use other things to make a mattress and quilt to keep you warm, you can definitely try it.

Jiang Yunmian's attention was on the second sentence. She looked up at Jiang Zhiluo and asked, "Sister, what is the bellows you are talking about? Why does the bellows use chicken feathers?"

Jiang Yunmian had never heard of bellows.

She was a little curious.

Jiang Zhiluo was slightly startled and thought for a moment. It is true that in this era, no one knows about bellows.

"The bellows is a thing used to blow air, so that when we burn firewood, it will burn more vigorously."

Jiang Zhiluo couldn't explain the scientific principles, because even the fifth sister wouldn't understand those physical principles.

It can only be explained in the simplest terms.

Jiang Yunmian was very smart. When he heard this, he became excited and said, "Sister, is it the feeling of blowing in the wind, which makes the firewood very strong?"

"When I make a fire, sometimes the flames are a little small, so I blow with my mouth. Sometimes there is less wind and the flames are not too big. But if I roll it up with something, the stronger the wind, the stronger the fire. That's right.

Isn’t it a blower?”

Jiang Yunmian wondered if it would be easier to make fires in the future if there was such a thing.

Sometimes on rainy or rainy days, the firewood is a little damp and it is not easy to burn when lighting the fire.

The same is true in winter.

Some firewood has just been chopped back from the mountains and has not been completely dried and is not easy to burn.

She likes to burn the kind of firewood that is very dry in the sun. It burns very well.

When she was three or four years old, she helped her mother light a fire. She was not very good at burning, and it took her a long time to control the flames better.

Seeing her sister's smart look, Jiang Zhiluo smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's it."

"When dad makes it later, you'll know whether it works or not."

Jiang Zhiluo also thought about asking her father to make one for her.

Although she has memories of her predecessor, she was pampered by her parents, younger brothers and sisters at home, and rarely worked or lit fires.

And she doesn't know much about it either.

So she can cook all kinds of delicious food, but she's really not good at making firewood.

Not to mention that in this era, people are also more economical on firewood.

Sometimes a bundle of firewood, if not used by oneself, can be sold for three or four cents.

Some people in the village will also cut firewood and sell it in the town. Although it is not easy to sell, you can get three or four cents from a bundle.

Xuan Xuan said crisply in Jiang Zhiluo's arms: "Dad is great, and he can make a lot of things."

Jiang Zhiluo's expression changed.

Indeed, my father can do some manual carpentry work, so the family's conditions are better than most people in the village. Otherwise, my younger brothers and sisters would not even be able to eat half full.

It's just that her father is not a professional carpenter and can only do simple work. He can't make some very complicated furniture and so on.

So my father would usually make some wooden frame baskets to sell in the market.

But these things are not easy to sell either.

Because many villagers know how to make it up themselves.

Fortunately, there are three acres of land at home, and my father is very strong. One person can do farm work as much as two ordinary villagers.

So much so that the food harvested at home is okay.

But there are many younger brothers and sisters in the family, and there are many people eating, and we can't take care of eating every meal.

Mrs. Ye looked at her daughter and thought that her daughter was really good and suddenly became smarter.

Maybe getting married will make your daughter feel better all of a sudden.

Sure enough, it is right to follow your daughter's wishes and let her marry the person she likes.

So Ye's face was full of satisfaction when he saw Cui Hejin.

While they were talking and discussing the bellows, Jiang Xiangchuan returned with two large buckets of water on a pole.

Jiang Xiangchuan was tall and handsome, and he could easily carry two large buckets of water back.

It's just that Jiang Xiangchuan's legs are not very good and he walks with a limp.

Jiang Zhiluo heard the sound and came out, happily saying: "Dad!"

"Ai, my daughter is back!"

Jiang Xiangchuan looked a little cold and smiled casually, but when he saw his eldest daughter coming back, he grinned with his teeth widened.

Cui Hejin also walked out slowly, saluted respectfully: "Dad!"

Jiang Xiangchuan also responded happily.

Xuan Xuan hurriedly got down from Jiang Zhiluo's arms, ran to Jiang Xiangchuan and said, "Dad, let me help you!"

"You are still young, dad can provoke you."

This little weight is nothing to Jiang Xiangchuan, he has plenty of strength.

Ye said: "Why have you been here for so long?"

Jiang Xiangchuan said: "There are many people carrying water today, so we queued for a while."

Jiang Zhiluo knew that in the villages here, the villagers usually dug two wells together, and everyone in the village had to dive into the water to drink water.

The same is true for the Cui family in Donghe Village.

It would be great if we could dig a well at home, and it would be convenient to use water.

It is really inconvenient to carry water like this.

Fortunately, I have to wash my clothes in the river here.

If there is no river, it would be too hard to carry water to wash clothes.

Jiang Xiangchuan poured two large buckets of water into the large vat, and the vat was full in an instant.

Jiang Zhiluo went over to scoop up water from a ladle and watched, then calmly poured some spiritual spring water into it.

After Jiang Zhiluo had a conversation with her father, she started talking about the making of the bellows.

Jiang Zhiluo said in more detail. There was no paper at home, so she could only use branches on the ground to draw pictures with her father and explain how to make them.

Jiang Xiangchuan understood it as soon as he heard it and said: "Daughter, I know how to do it. If you need it, dad will do it for you as soon as possible."

Both Jiang Xiangchuan and the Ye family doted on Jiang Zhiluo. Whatever their daughter needed, they all wanted to make it quickly.
