Qiu Hanli asked in confusion: "What do you want the coal slag for?"
"You'll know later." Qiu Yinong smiled mysteriously. Qiu Hanli saw that she couldn't say it, so he didn't say anything more.
Qiu Yinong returned to the room and actually lay down on the bed and slept for a while.
Half an hour later, she opened her eyes, but did not go out. She picked up the embroidery frame, sat in front of the window and started embroidering.
When Qiu Hanli found out that she had woken up, a handkerchief had already been embroidered.
"Sister, your embroidery skills are so amazing." Qiu Hanli stared at the handkerchief in her hand. The butterfly and peony pattern looked lifelike.
Qiu Yinong smiled embarrassedly. After all, she made a living from this in her previous life. She knew many intangible cultural heritage skills, which she learned specially. She even learned cooking and embroidery from famous teachers.
It takes a lot of time to make a video, and she doesn’t have a team, so she does everything on her own.
In addition, her health is not very good, so this kind of life is more suitable for her.
While she is alive, she does what she likes. She never expected that what she learned can still allow her to make money in this life.
This was something she had not expected.
"What's wrong? What are you talking about?" Seeing Qiu Hanli standing outside the window talking to Qiu Yinong, Qiu Hanyan also walked over curiously.
Qiu Hanyan glanced into the window and was also attracted by the handkerchief in Qiu Yinong's hand.
"My sister's embroidery skills are really amazing. This peony looks just like the real thing."
Qiu Yinong smiled at the two of them and turned the handkerchief over.
"It's actually double-sided embroidery, one side is red and the other side is black. This black is so beautiful, I can't even describe it."
Qiu Hanli was amazed and wanted to take it to have a look, but was afraid of getting it dirty or damaged.
Qiu Yinong placed it in his hand and said with a smile, "The black thread seems to be shining, right?"
"That's a good word. Yes, it's radiant and colorful." Qiu Hanyan nodded repeatedly, looking at the black peony, that was the feeling.
"It's truly a masterpiece of nature, isn't it?" Qiu Hanli looked at Qiu Hanyan, who nodded.
Qiu Hanyan nodded, and soon the other brothers gathered around after hearing the news.
After reading it, Qiu Hanqing said, "No wonder my sister asked Aunt Mo for two hundred taels of silver to embroider a screen. My sister's embroidery is worth two hundred taels."
"Two hundred taels?!" Qiu Hanli opened his eyes wide.
Oh my God, two hundred taels!
"What's going on?" Qiu Hansheng couldn't help but ask.
Qiu Hanqing glanced at Qiu Yinong and then remembered that he seemed to have not yet mentioned the matter of the embroidery workshop.
"It's like this..."
After hearing this, all the brothers were dumbfounded. This wasn't just finding a sister, this was simply finding a lucky star.
"Sister, you are really awesome." Qiu Hanli gave a thumbs up and praised.
Qiu Yinong grinned, took the handkerchief that Qiu Hanli handed back and put it away.
"If you're not tired anymore, let's try making bricks."
"good."
Qiu Yinong walked out of the room and saw a pile of coal slag on the ground. After thinking about it, she turned back to the room.
He took an old piece of clothing, spread it out, shoveled some coal slag on it, and crushed it with his feet.
"Let us do it." Seeing her actions, several brothers came forward and rushed to do it.
In order to avoid getting Qiu Yinong dirty, after spending the past few days with her, I also know that this sister is a person who likes cleanliness.
The clay must also be crushed and sieved, leaving the fine soil, which is then mixed with the finely ground coal slag and stirred repeatedly with water.
Sprinkle some fine sand into the brick mold and press the mixed soil into the brick mold.
"Second brother, you are strong. Step on this wooden board and compact the bricks." Qiu Yinong said to Qiu Hanqing.
Qiu Hanqing followed her request and stepped on the wooden board hard until he could no longer move it.
"Take out the bricks carefully." Qiu Yinong instructed.
Qiu Hanqing took away the board on top and poured out the bricks.
"Can it be fired now?" Qiu Hanli squatted down and asked curiously while looking at the brick.
Qiu Yinong shook her head and said, "Not yet. We have to let all the moisture in here evaporate."
"It turns out that it can't be burned yet." Qiu Hanli nodded in sudden realization.
Qiu Yinong nodded, carefully put the brick aside, and then made the second brick, the third brick, and a total of about fifty bricks. There was not enough clay and coal slag.
"Okay, this is enough." Qiu Yinong smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the finished bricks.
Seeing that it was almost time, Qiu Yinong washed her hands and walked towards the kitchen.
Seeing this, Qiu Hanli quickly washed his hands and followed in.
"Sister, what are we eating tonight?" Qiu Hanli asked while beginning to look at the ingredients at home.
"Stir-fry lettuce, stir-fry spicy and sour potato shreds, make braised pork, deep-fry bok choy, and simmer a pot of white rice, how about that?"
"Okay, I'll help. I'll watch my sister do it tonight, and then I'll be able to do it in the future." Qiu Hanli nodded repeatedly.
Qiu Yinong handed him the potato and said, "Brother, please peel the potato."
"Okay." Taking the potatoes and chopsticks, Qiu Hanli ran to the well to scrape the potatoes.
Qiu Yinong took the rice and went to the well to wash it.
When Qiu Hanli came back after finishing his work, Qiu Yinong had already cooked two dishes and the braised pork had just been put into the pot.
"For your sister."
"Well, fourth brother, just watch." Qiu Yinong smiled at Qiu Hanli and began to slice and shred quickly.
The movements were so quick and swift that Qiu Hanli was stunned.
"Slow down, slow down."
Qiu Hanli was afraid that she would cut her hand, so he shouted nervously.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Hanqing and Qiu Hanchi ran in and were stunned by Qiu Yinong's knife skills.
"Sister, your knife skills are incredible. Those great chefs are probably only as good as you."
Qiu Hanqing said in a daze.
"No, his knife skills are much better than our chef's." Qiu Hanli said quickly. Their chef didn't have such good knife skills.
Put the cut potatoes into a clean wooden basin and rinse with water to remove the starch.
Add the vegetables to the hot oil, stir-fry quickly, add seasoning and remove from the pan. The spicy and sour potato shreds are ready.
"It turns out that potatoes can be cooked like this." Qiu Hanli was very excited.
Qiu Yinong said, "There are so many things you can make with potatoes. I'll teach Fourth Brother everything later."
Qiu Hanli rubbed his hands excitedly and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I will definitely study hard."
Seeing him like this, Qiu Yinong couldn't help but laugh.
"The braised pork is almost done, go tell big brother to prepare dinner!"
"Okay." Qiu Hanqing turned and went out, while Qiu Hanchi and Qiu Hanli helped bring the dishes to the table.
Qiu Yinong collected the sauce from the braised pork, put it on a plate, and sprinkled some chopped green onions on it.
"It smells good." When the family was about to eat, there was a knock on the door.
Qiu Hansheng frowned and looked over. A voice came: "My dear grandchildren, open the door for me quickly."
"Why is she here? It must be bad news. Second brother, fifth brother, let's hide the food quickly."
Qiu Hanqing and the others couldn't help but frown, and Qiu Hanli snorted rudely. Thinking of the food in the kitchen, he hurriedly got up and went to the kitchen.
