Before leaving town in the afternoon, Ruyi's stomach was already growling.
At that time, she originally wanted to have a meal in the town, but Su Chengyi reminded her that if they wasted time because of the meal, they would have to travel at night when they returned to the village.
Although Su Chengyi is not afraid of the dark, walking in the forest at night may be dangerous. If he encounters wild beasts or something, Su Chengyi will not have the extra energy to protect Ruyi.
So after Su Chengyi's repeated urging, Ruyi walked back to the village on an empty stomach.
It was not until she and Su Chengyi entered the house that her stomach finally started to growl.
?Looking at Ruyi's expression that looked like she could swallow a pig, Su Chengyi quickly waved at her, signaling her to hurry up and eat.
After receiving the order, Ruyi ran out and went straight to the kitchen in the backyard.
?For the next period of time, Ruyi lived a very comfortable life.
Thanks to Ruyi's method of making fine salt, Su Chengyi has produced a large amount of fine salt and sold it, which has also ensured that the people in their village have enough food and clothing as winter is approaching.
In this season of food and clothing shortages, their village made money by selling fine salt, and the food became better and better.
I saw that the people in the village had become much more cheerful and energetic.
?The people in the village now have enough food to eat, and Ruyi's treatment has also improved by several levels.
Before, when Ruyi wanted to eat something, it was tantamount to snatching food from the people in the village.
If Ruyi eats more, others should eat less.
Even though most of the food was saved from Su Chengyi's mouth, Su Chengyi couldn't go hungry every meal.
Since then, Ruyi's life has become increasingly difficult.
Now, since they started selling fine salt in their village, the atmosphere in the entire village has become much more relaxed.
After having a full meal, Ruyi started fiddling with her soap.
?She had only used a small amount of lard to test the ten bars of soap she had made before.
If it fails, it won’t be a big waste.
Most of the lard was refined and stored by her.
Now that even the spices are ready, Ruyi begins to prepare to make high-end soap.
?But before making the soap, she was thinking about making a batch of molds first, which would be better than having all the soaps be in the shape of steamed buns.
?But the production of this mold made Ruyi a little worried.
In the ancient times when she lived, there were definitely no plastic products for her to use as molds.
The only thing she could think of in this village was something that could be made from wood.
But making wooden molds is really difficult for a girl like her.
Ruyi tried many times with the kitchen knife, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
?When she finally took action after getting so annoyed, the knife was so big that she almost became a member of the "Chop Off Your Hand" tribe.
Seeing that all the materials for making high-end soap were ready, and only the mold was worrying her, Ruyi was not happy at all.
?Seeing her like this, Su Chengyi finally couldn't help but speak.
"A while ago, your stomach growled all day long because you were hungry. It was really annoying. Now that you're full, why are you still so sad? Are you afraid of being hungry for a while? If you feel hungry, go to the kitchen and have another bowl of rice."
Hearing Su Chengyi's impatient tone, Ruyi sat down on the chair and sighed deeply.
"Alas, you will never understand my heart."
?Her wailing almost choked Su Chengyi to death.
?While Ruyi was lamenting, Su Chengyi was holding a cup and drinking water.
However, she didn't expect that her sarcastic sigh would cause Su Chengyi to drink the water directly into his trachea, and he coughed for a long time before he recovered.
Finally, Su Chengyi's face flushed red as he gritted his teeth at Ruyi and said, "If you continue to say something shocking like that, I'm going to sue you for murdering your husband."
?Originally, he thought that his warning was serious enough, but he didn’t expect that Ruyi’s attention was not on him at all.
"Hey, when will the mold be ready?"
Ruyi rubbed her head and was worried, and Su Chengyi only then knew what Ruyi was worried about.
"Why didn't you just say you were worried about the mold?"
?After hearing Su Chengyi’s point, Ruyi’s eyes raised and she focused her attention on him.
"You mean you can make a mold for soap?"
?When Su Chengyi heard this, his forehead was full of black lines.
"Making a mold isn't that difficult. Just carve one out with a knife."
?Seeing how simple Su Chengyi's words were, Ruyi immediately became excited.
"Really? Then carve one for me."
?Her eyes were full of anticipation, which made Su Chengyi's face flush instantly.
There was nothing to do in their village during this period, so he could use carving molds to pass the time.
?But when Ruyi brought him something, Su Chengyi instantly became upset.
?Ever since he started carving the mold, Ruyi has been watching his movements with an admiring look, which made him feel a little nervous.
Ruyi's eyes continued to gleam with stars. Su Chengyi couldn't stand the strange atmosphere anymore and yelled at her. "If you keep looking at me like that, I won't carve anymore."
?Seeing that she had finally angered Su Chengyi, Ruyi immediately put on a smile and kept apologizing to Su Chengyi.
"Then I'll go out and prepare other things. If you're done carving, bring it to me."
?After saying that, Ruyi turned and walked out of his room, leaving Su Chengyi with a dazed look on his face.
?It was the first time that he was so obedient to someone's arrangements.
?I don’t know what’s wrong with me, but I’m willing to do what Ruyi wants.
?After a while, Su Chengyi sighed softly and got back to work on carving the mold.
?As he was carving, he couldn't help but recall the way Ruyi had instructed him to carve the mold.
?I don’t know how many little secrets are hidden in Ruyi’s head. Even this simple mold can be thought of in such an unusual way.
?The soaps they use for bathing are all quite delicate in appearance, but the shapes are all common objects, mostly flower petals, and there are no other styles.
?However, the mold that Ruyi asked him to make was very different from the soap she had previously imagined.
?Looking at the mold shape drawn by Ruyi for him, Su Chengyi was a little reluctant to do it at first.
After all, the figures drawn by Ruyi seemed very strange to him.
