Yang Shuying thought, isn't soap used for washing clothes? What else can it be used for?
But when she saw that the other people's faces had changed, Yang's mother also looked as if she was heartbroken to see her prodigal son.
Yang Shuying twitched his lips and could only make up an excuse: "Mom, I just didn't find any soap beans..."
Before she could finish her words, Yang's mother interrupted her hurriedly: "My dear, the soap is in the kitchen. I'll give it to you now."
When Yang's mother went to the kitchen to look for soap nuts, she did not forget to take out the soap from the wooden basin.
The newly unwrapped soap was quite large. The more Yang's mother looked at it, the more she admired it. She said, "My dear, you can just use soap nuts to wash clothes in the future. Don't be like those educated youth who are so picky. I'll keep this soap. Tell me when you need to wash your face in the future."
Yang Shuying: “…”
The soap was hidden by Yang's mother, and the eldest sister-in-law Hong Xiaojuan and the third sister-in-law Wang Rongxin finally felt better.
Regarding the use of soap to wash clothes, both of them felt that the younger sister was imitating the educated youth and wasting money.
However, the two of them just exchanged a few glances.
The soap looks to be of very good quality and is large in size.
They then remembered that their younger sister took a bath with this soap and her skin became much whiter. They felt itchy all of a sudden but did not dare to ask Yang's mother.
Wait until the family disperses and everyone goes back to their rooms.
Only Yang's mother stayed and wanted to wash clothes for Shuying, but Yang Shuying refused.
Not to mention the piece of meat as a reward from the system, she was already an adult, so it was not easy for her to let her mother Yang, who was busy with housework during the day, wash her clothes for her like the original owner did.
Yang Shuying said, "Mom, go back to your room and rest. I'll wash myself."
"Oh, my daughter really loves her mother!" said Yang's mother with emotion.
Yang Shuying wanted to cover her face, but her mother said, "The kerosene lamp is also out. When you finish washing clothes, go back to the room and turn it off yourself."
Mother Yang walked a few steps, then remembered that the child was a sewist, so she repeatedly reminded him to turn off the kerosene lamp early to save money.
"I know, mother!" Yang Shuying said again: "By the way, mother, you should not hide the soap for me to wash my face. Put it in the kitchen for you, father and brothers to wash their faces and take baths."
"How can that be possible?"
Mother Yang didn't realize that her daughter was deliberately avoiding her two sisters-in-law.
"Mom, washing your face and body with soap makes it extra clean. You guys are busy all the time, but washing with soap makes it extra clean, and it makes you feel comfortable when you go back to sleep!"
Seeing that Yang's mother was still going to refuse, Yang Shuying talked about Yang's father, and Yang's mother finally agreed.
In fact, if the 1960s hadn't been so poor and supplies so scarce, she wouldn't have recommended washing your face with soap because it would easily dry out your face.
But soap is
The soapberries and wood ash from the 1960s were really useful. At least they could wash away oil stains and dirt very cleanly.
She had heard from Yang's mother before that those who were a little more particular in the countryside would use some soap nuts when bathing or washing clothes. Most people would just rinse with water when bathing and not apply anything, and the same went for washing clothes, just knocking with a stick.
She couldn't imagine it, but fortunately the Yang family was still more particular and used some soap beans.
Summer clothes were thin and few in number, and were only worn for one day so they were not too dirty. She put soap nuts in the clothes and rubbed them for more than ten minutes, then ripped them several times. After washing and wringing the clothes, she hung them on the wooden pole in the yard.
As Shuying just returned to the house, she heard a buzzing sound in her head.
"Ding, the host has completed the random task, and the reward is one pound of pork belly. Please check it after storing it in the space!"
Yang Shuying was so absorbed in thinking that he had actually forgotten about this.
Suddenly hearing about the reward, she excitedly went to the space to check immediately.
When she saw the piece of fat and lean pork belly on it, she was a little bit unbelieving, probably because she hadn't seen meat for a long time.
After she confirmed that the system had really rewarded her with a pound of pork belly, she immediately thought of meat-related dishes, such as braised pork, boiled pork slices, and stir-fried pork with green peppers.
She was so greedy that she almost wanted to eat raw meat.
These days, although Yang's mother loved her, the Yang family was too poor.
She had corn porridge every day, and at most I would make her some egg drop soup or secretly give her a boiled egg, but her mouth was already tasteless.
Although the mall is open, only the snack area on the first floor is accessible.
She had been wondering when she would be able to eat meat, but she never thought there would be such a thing as a random mission!
Very good!
Yang Shuying's excited emotions quickly calmed down, and he was thinking about how to take out this piece of meat properly!
She decided to go to the county town tomorrow.
It just so happened that she had to avoid An Meixue for the next few days.
Others may not be able to see the effect of nectar, but An Meixue may not be able to see it.
She was not afraid of An Meixue, but she was worried that she would become desperate and do harm to the Yang family after she knew that she had taken the golden finger back.
By the way, I have a Yin-Yang fish tattoo on my right arm!
Yang Shuying rolled up his sleeves and touched the tattoo on his right arm with his left hand, thinking about how to hide the tattoo.
As she began to think, she saw the Yin-Yang fish tattoo on her right arm suddenly fade away until it disappeared.
Yang Shuying blinked and touched her bare arms several times. She was a little panicked at first, but soon the Yin-Yang fish tattoo reappeared on her right arm and she breathed a sigh of relief.
After going back and forth a few times, she finally figured out the pattern of the Yin-Yang Fish tattoo. This tattoo seemed to be related to her consciousness and thoughts.
She wanted it to appear and disappear, to touch the tattoo and make it feel
Just follow her ideas.
That's great!
Needless to say, the next time An Meixue sees her, the first thing she will do is check whether she has a tattoo on her right arm.
She touched the Yin-Yang fish tattoo, causing it to disappear again.
Then she went into the mall to check on the mushrooms. She had just picked the mushrooms tonight and uploaded them to the store in the mall.
She clicked on it and found that the mushrooms were still there and no one bought them. Her mall points were still zero. Yang Shuying felt a little regretful.
She didn't make it to the county town the next day.
It's autumn harvest time recently, and the village is busy. Her family is busy too. Even Da Hu, Er Hu and two little nieces have to go out to pick wheat ears.
In addition, Yang's father and mother were still afraid that she would go to find Jiang Jingyan again, so they asked Fourth Brother Yang to keep an eye on her from time to time.
A week passed in the blink of an eye.
I saw the Yang family going out early and returning late every day busy with the autumn harvest.
Everyone still drank water on an empty stomach in the morning, and ate corn porridge for about half a meal at noon and night. In just one week, all the members of the Yang family except her had become several shades darker and had lost a lot of weight.
Among them, the strong eldest brother Yang and the fourth brother Yang were the main force of the autumn harvest. They did a lot of work and ate the same as usual. But after a week, the two of them lost a lot of weight and looked very skinny, and it was obvious that they were not fat.
Several nephews and nieces had helped to pick wheat ears, so they ate less, looked listless, and had lost a lot of weight. Yang Shuying could no longer sit still.
I made up my mind to go to the county town early tomorrow morning and get the pork belly for everyone to eat first.
Thanks to the autumn harvest this week, the village is very busy and so are the educated youth work centers, where we have to work until very late every day.
An Meixue wanted to find her but was powerless.
Occasionally, An Meixue went to the Yang family's house to look for her very late at night, but was driven away by the Yang family.
This week, she didn't dare to take the nectar directly, and tried to wash her hair with the nectar, dissolving half a drop of nectar in a basin of water.
