Chapter 281 Wormwood Mint Cream (2)

The second day.

The wormwood mint oil has been left overnight and has settled.

The dark green oil floats on the upper layer, while the water with a larger molecular weight has settled to the bottom layer.

Jiang Rou gently scooped out the fat on the top little by little with a spoon.

Avoid shaking during movement.

To prevent the water from the lower layer from mixing up again.

Add wasp wax to wormwood mint oil in a ratio of 1:4

One part wasp wax, four parts wormwood mint oil.

Then it is heated in water again.

This time it's just to melt the wasp wax, which only takes a few minutes.

Once the wasp wax is completely melted, it will blend completely with the wormwood mint oil.

The wormwood mint ointment is ready, and only the last step is left - canning.

In modern society, most cans are made of small aluminum boxes that can be opened and used anytime and anywhere.

But in the 1970s, little things like this were rare.

Jiang Rou adapted to local conditions and used bamboo.

Bamboo is long and thin, cylindrical in shape, and hollow in the middle.

Use a bamboo that is about the thickness of two coins, and saw off the bamboo joints one by one to make small jars.

Jiang Rou poured the prepared mugwort and mint oil into the bamboo joints one by one.

Leave it alone for a while.

As the temperature drops, the wasp wax begins to solidify, taking the wormwood mint oil with it, into a slightly soft paste.

Add a wooden stopper and it's done!

"Xiaohua, Xiaohua~ get ready, we are going out."

Jiang Rou shouted loudly towards the yard.

Zhou Xiaohua was in the yard, staring at the place where cherries were planted. She was looking at it with deep thought, more than if she looked at it three times a day.

She heard Jiang Rou's shout and walked into the room.

Jiang Rou sorted out two baskets, one basket contained the nutritious meals prepared for Song Yan, and the other basket contained the freshly made mugwort mint ointment.

After the heavy rain, the island immediately returned to the scorching sun of summer.

Jiang Rou picked up the straw hat and put it on Zhou Xiaohua's head.

"Okay, let's go."

Jiang Rou took Zhou Xiaohua out of the yard and turned around to meet Zhao Guifen.

Zhao Guifen had just washed clothes and was drying them in the yard. She also took out all the things in the house that were damp and moldy due to the heavy rain a few days ago and dried them.

"Sister Rou, are you going out? Where are you going?"

"Sister Guifen, I'll take Xiaohua to the infirmary to see Song Yan."

"It's Captain Zhou's guard, a young man..." Zhao Guifen put down the clothes in her hands and walked out to chat with Jiang Rou, "I heard from my husband Zhao that he injured his leg during a mission? It's not a big deal at his age... His parents don't know about it either, it's really pitiful. Is the injury serious?"

"Chongshan said the injury wasn't serious and that he just needed some time to recover."

"That's good. If he just hurt his leg at a young age, what would he do for the rest of his life? Are you sending him food?"

"Yes. Song Yan has been with Chongshan for a long time, and he cares about Xiaohua and Xiaochuan very much. We are also family, so we should take care of each other."

"It is his blessing to meet Captain Zhou and you."

The two chatted about Song Yan's sadness for a while, and then Jiang Rou handed the prepared mugwort mint ointment to Zhao Guifen.

"Sister Guifen, I have something to ask of you."

"You want to ask me for help? Just say whatever you want! Whatever relationship we have, don't be polite to me."

"This is the wormwood mint ointment I just made. It can repel mosquitoes, relieve itching, and refresh the mind. Sister Guifen, take one, and share the rest with the sisters-in-law in the compound."

"You're still going to give those people stuff?!"

Zhao Guifen thought about what those people said after Jiang Rou left yesterday, and suddenly became angry.

She said angrily, "Sister Rou, you don't even know what those people say about you behind your back... and you're actually giving them things. You're just feeding an ungrateful person."

Jiang Rou actually thought of it.

The way she beat Lin Yuyao yesterday must have scared all the sisters-in-law, and corresponding rumors would have spread.

But she didn't care.

Jiang Rou smiled and said nonchalantly, "They can say whatever they want. I don't care, and neither does Chongshan. But I promised to take the wormwood mint ointment. Since I said it, I must keep my word."

Zhao Guifen was amazed after hearing what Jiang Rou said.

"Sister Rou, you are really...really...I don't know how to put it, I just feel so comfortable being friends with you!"

"Hahaha, Sister Guifen, you are also a straightforward person. I feel very comfortable with you."

"Hey! You should say this in front of my old man Zhao, let him see what's going on. You keep scolding me for being a vicious woman..."

"Sister Guifen, I have something else to do here. I won't talk to you anymore. I'm leaving now."

"Yeah, be careful on the road. I'll help you divide these things, don't worry."

…

In a blink of an eye.

Jiang Rou held Zhou Xiaohua's hand and entered the military camp's infirmary.

I've been here several times and I'm familiar with the place inside and out.

Walking inside.

I met someone on the way.

"Teacher Yang."

Jiang Rou saw Yang Zhenzhen, who was the teacher in Zhou Xiaochuan's class, and greeted her with a smile.

When Yang Zhenzhen saw Jiang Rou, she was shocked.

She spoke in a panic, "Comrade Jiang...Comrade Jiang."

Jiang Rou looked at Yang Zhenzhen's nervous reaction and looked at her more carefully, noticing her panicked eyes and slightly red face.

"Teacher Yang, are you...sick?"

Yang Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly, "Yeah, I felt a little uncomfortable, so I went to see a doctor. Now I'm fine, I... I'm leaving first, goodbye, Comrade Jiang."

As soon as I finished speaking.

Yang Zhenzhen didn't wait for Jiang Rou to say anything and left in a hurry.

He looked so flustered, as if he was hiding some big secret.

Jiang Rou looked at Yang Zhenzhen's leaving back and slowly withdrew her gaze.

She didn't think much about it and continued walking towards the infirmary.

There happened to be someone in the infirmary...
