Chapter 69 Failure

Although Zhao Yunlan did not actually feed the peppers to the chickens, Zhao Yunlan still recorded the consumption of peppers and wrote them at the back of the previous planting records.

In order to make his record more convincing, Zhao Yunlan sadly picked out a few peppers reserved for seeding and continued to cook a dish for the Li family. Only then did he write down that after eating the peppers twice, the Li family

feedback of.

In the first line, Zhao Yunlan wrote without blinking: Chicken, if you eat it, there will be no harm.

Then write down the consumption situation of each member of the Li family. For example, Li Mingren’s mouth was red and swollen after eating, but other problems were not harmful.

After Li Mingli ate it for the first time, he had diarrhea at night, but there was no other problem. After consuming it for the second time, there was no problem. And Zhao Yunlan suspected that Li Mingli had diarrhea the first time because he ate too much. After all, Li Mingli had a mouthful of that dish.

Take another bite.

The rest of the family ate fine and no other problems occurred.

In the last sentence, Zhao Yunlan wrote that the children had not eaten it and did not use it for reference.

Zhao Yunlan also asked the Li family how they felt about the pepper. Old man Li said that after eating the pepper, he made him sweat and felt comfortable all over.

Li Mingren burst into tears at first. He just thought that one bite would refresh his mind. He didn’t eat the pepper directly for the second meal. He felt that the dish with the pepper was quite good, so he ate it for several times.

Bowl of rice.

Mrs. Wang and Li Mingmei all ate the dish with pepper and found it appetizing.

Zhao Yunlan wrote these down one by one, and when he went to town, he brought this record book to Mr. Liu.

After Zhao Yunlan finished working on the pepper, she wanted to take a look at the lard soap she had made before.

After so many days, it was time for it to solidify. Zhao Yunlan opened it one by one with full expectation. The 'No. 1' soap disappointed Zhao Yunlan. Although he had expected that the 'No. 1' soap might be scrapped, Zhao Yunlan

Lan still had a hint of hope before opening it.

Zhao Yunlan didn't continue to struggle with 'No. 1', and took apart 'No. 2' and took it out. 'No. 2' was completely solidified. It looked good when it was taken apart. Zhao Yunlan found 'No. 2' and gave it to Li Mingren to try out.

, Li Mingren couldn’t be happier.

Li Mingren: "Madam, will you give me the first piece of pancake you made?"

Zhao Yunlan: "Well, here you go, to be precise, this should be the second piece."

Regardless of whether it was the first piece or the second piece, Li Mingren only knew that Zhao Yunlan would give it to him first, so he quickly took it and tried it.

"No. 3" was given to Li Mingli. Mainly because Li Mingli kept clamoring next to him to try it, Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to give "No. 3" to Mingli. Li Mingli even said with a smile: "I happen to be ranked third."

Old Man Li was also wandering around, so Zhao Yunlan had no choice but to give the "No. 4" to Old Man Li.

"No. 5" Zhao Yunlan was not given out again, and Zhao Yunlan kept it for himself to test.

In fact, the first few Zhao Yunlan didn't have much confidence. Zhao Yunlan thought that he would give it a try first, and if it worked, he would give it to others. Of course, except for 'No. 2', Zhao Yunlan specially gave it to Li Mingren. He always thought about Li Mingren's exam.

If he is not a scholar, he will not be able to build a big house. Zhao Yunlan will be angry!

Not long after Li Mingren finished washing, he felt small red spots on his hands, but he was afraid that Zhao Yunlan would be disappointed, so he didn't say anything.

On the second day, Li Mingren's hands were peeling. Zhao Yunlan took a look and knew that this 'No. 2' was indeed a failure. Too much grass and wood ash liquid was added. Zhao Yunlan knew this when he started adding it.

The hands of Li Mingli and Old Man Li were more or less peeled off from the other pieces of soap. Even Zhao Yunlan was killed in the battle. Zhao Yunlan used the piece of soap named "No. 5" to wash her hands, and her palms were a little red.

Li Mingren was also worried that Zhao Yunlan would be disappointed, so he kept comforting Zhao Yunlan by his side, "Madam, I think these pieces of soap you have are really useful."

Zhao Yunlan gave Li Mingren a roll of his eyes.

Li Mingren continued indifferently: "Madam, you are getting better and better now. You can even make this pancake for you."

Zhao Yunlan was so noisy by Li Mingren that her head hurt: "Okay, you go to study quickly, I'm waiting to build a big house! I want to continue doing this now, I know I failed, you don't need to say these words to comfort me

, I am not you. If you fail, you will be devastated. You must know that failure is the stepping stone to success." Zhao Yunlan originally wanted to say that failure is the mother of success, but after thinking about the traditional thinking of the ancients, he changed the last word.

Li Mingren was thinking about Zhao Yunlan's "Failure is the stepping stone to success" and suddenly seemed to understand something. He showed Zhao Yunlan the courtesy of a student and hurried back to his room to read.

Seeing that Li Mingren had finally left, Zhao Yunlan quietly began to make lard soap. The plant ash had been soaked and precipitated earlier. Zhao Yunlan used the proportion of 'No. 5' as a basis and continued to make another five

Two different proportions of lard soap came out.

Zhao Yunlan wrote the word "soap" on the bamboo tube.

Li Mingmei came over and looked at the 'soap' and asked: "Sister-in-law, what does this 'soap' mean?"

Zhao Yunlan thought for a while and slowly explained: "Look, lard is the oiliest and fattest thing on pigs. This soap is almost the same as soap locust. They are both used to wash things. So! I am

It's also made to wash things, so it's called soap! Otherwise, if we just call it lard soap, others will guess what we use it for."

Li Mingmei nodded understandingly.

There is a saponin tree in Lijia Village, but this saponin tree has to be distributed to every household in the village. Since Zhao Yunlan asked everyone in the family to bathe frequently and change clothes frequently, the saponinus tree that had been saved before was not enough.

Li Mingmei was happy now. Although the previous ones had failed, looking at Zhao Yunlan's confident expression, Li Mingmei also inexplicably believed that Zhao Yunlan could make this 'soap'.

Zhao Yunlan also wanted to make this 'soap' milder and add some fragrance, so she took Li Mingren to the flower and bird market in the county that Li Mingyi mentioned last time. Zhao Yunlan really found two kinds of summer products.

Floral fragrance, calyx green king and woody peony.

Zhao Yunlan was extremely satisfied. Li Mingren had just loaded the flowers onto the ox cart. When Zhao Yunlan was about to turn around and go back, he saw a stall full of brightly colored impatiens. Zhao Yunlan thought to herself: This is not the same as when I was a child.

Let’s play with the flowers that dye your nails! Well, you can dye your nails, and this flower is just right.

Zhao Yunlan went up and asked about the price. Fortunately, this impatiens was cheaper than the calyx green king and wood dandelion. Mainly because this impatiens came in several colors, Zhao Yunlan wanted to buy it back. But this impatiens only cost

It is quite cost-effective to buy one and keep the seeds for further planting. Li Mingren continued to work hard, carrying flowers one by one.

Zhao Yunlan returned home with a full load and couldn't hide the smile on his face. Li Mingren secretly watched Zhao Yunlan from the side, silently hoping that the way home would be longer. Zhao Yunlan was so excited that he drove the cattle straight home and returned.

The road home has not become longer, but the time has shortened. When Li Mingren arrived home, he still felt a little disappointed.

Zhao Yunlan didn't care about Li Mingren's mood and still directed Li Mingren to move the flowers down one by one and plant them in the backyard.

I'm not feeling well today, so the update is late.
