Chapter 1556 heat

After getting Manbao, Zhou Lijun felt more at ease and was already planning how to start this business.

When they got home, Manbao took out the bags of medicinal materials, weighed them again and divided them, and then taught them how to make the ointment.

Ms. Lu was the quickest to get started. She had never made ointments, but she had prepared medicinal materials before and boiled concoctions. She knew how to control various heats.

Basically, she understood it as soon as Manbao said it. Fang was a little slower, but not worse than the two princesses Mingda, so she could learn it.

Zhou Lijun knew that he had no talent in cooking, so he kept squatting aside and watching, not daring to get started easily.

After all, this medicine is not cheap, what if she breaks it?

But as she looked at it, she figured out the taste. It was medicine, and it didn't matter whether it tasted good or not. It was just applied to the face, so there was no such concern at all.

Moreover, even if she couldn't make the medicine, she had no problem pounding the medicinal ingredients, so she rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward to help.

When Mr. Zhuang and the other two apprentices came here for a walk, they saw fireworks in the kitchen. Man Bao and Zhou Lijun were sitting in the shadow of the corridor, pounding medicinal materials.

Their reasons were very practical. The kitchen was relatively hot and they didn't want to warm themselves up in it.

Fang and Lu, who were responsible for brewing the medicinal ingredients and did not dare to relax, were in the kitchen.

When Liu Tou was at his most naughty and mischievous, he took his two younger brothers to the side to cause trouble for Man Bao and the others. One of them snatched the medicinal materials, and the other tried to mix the medicine himself. After being beaten twice by Zhou Lijun, he became honest.

Seeing them sitting on the ground obediently with their heads down, Man Bao felt a little soft-hearted. Just when he was thinking about letting them play for a while, Mr. Zhuang and the others came over.

He looked at the two of them curiously, "What are you doing?"

Bai Shan only glanced at it and said, "Are you making the ointment you gave to your sixth brother?"

Man Bao nodded, told Mr. Zhuang the benefits of this ointment in detail, and asked, "Sir, would you like a bottle?"

Mr. Zhuang didn't understand what the ointment was for, so he shook his head and refused.

But Bai Erlang was very moved, "I want a bottle."

Bai Shanye said: "I want it too."

Man Bao was curious, "What are you doing here?"

Bai Shandao: "Your sixth brother has them all, why can't we have them?"

"My sixth brother has a sore on his face. Do you have one?"

Bai Shan sat on the railing and said to her: "Didn't you say that it also has beauty-beautifying effects? It doesn't have to cause sores."

Bai Erlang: "That's right."

After thinking about it, he felt that he couldn't forget his brother, so he said: "Give my brother a bottle too."

Zhou Lijun couldn't help it anymore, stretched out his hands to the two of them and said, "Give me money."

Man Bao: "That's right, I'll do it for you if you give me the money."

Bai Erlang immediately looked at Bai Shan.

Bai Shan thought for a while and then said: "I'll give it to you, but we have such a relationship anyway, you don't want to make money from us, right? What's the cost price?"

Mr. Zhuang sat aside and watched them silently.

Man Bao turned to look at Zhou Lijun. She had not calculated the cost, but she remembered that Lijun had calculated it.

Lijun thought for a while and then said: "Okay, I'll just charge you the cost, two taels of silver per bottle."

Bai Shan was slightly stunned, feeling a little bit pained, "Is the cost price so expensive?"

Zhou Lijun said, "Little uncle, I will have to buy a good porcelain vase later. It is very expensive."

"You don't have to give us a very good porcelain bottle, just use a wooden jar filled with treasures."

Man Bao was about to nod, but Zhou Lijun already refused, "No, you have to use the same porcelain bottles we use for takeout."

Bai Shan looked at her suspiciously, "You don't still want us to help you take out food, do you?"

Zhou Lijun looked at his face and said: "No, as long as my uncle says you are using the ointment made by our family, by the way, we need to change the name. This rouge and anti-sore ointment don't sound good."

Zhou Lijun wanted to ask Man Bao to name him, but when he saw Mr. Zhuang by mistake, he immediately poked his sister-in-law and asked her to look at Mr. Zhuang.

Manbao also raised his head and looked at Mr. Zhuang.

Mr. Zhuang immediately turned his head and said, "The sun is quite bright today. The sun has been very big recently."

Bai Shan laughed out loud and said, "Don't make things difficult for me, sir."

After thinking for a while, he said to Zhou Lijun: "If you really want a good name, I will show you the way."

He smiled and said: "Go to my mother, she will definitely be able to take it out for you."

"Yes, look for Aunt Zheng!" Man Bao finally remembered and said to Zhou Lijun: "The names given by Aunt Zheng are very nice. You see, she names the flowers and plants in the garden and never uses the same name."

Bai Shan then told Man Bao, "She also likes the ointment you gave to my mother."

"No wonder I feel that Aunt Zheng has become more beautiful this time I came home."

Although this is true, it always gives people the feeling that she is praising the ointment.

Man Bao was tired of pounding the medicinal materials, so he put the medicine hammer directly into Bai Shan's hand and asked him to help.

Bai Shan sat down in her seat and soon started to sweat. As he made the medicine, he said, "It's so hot in Beijing this year."

They arrived in Beijing at this time last year, and it was not as hot as it is now.

Mr. Zhuang raised his head slightly and looked at the sky. Of course, he couldn't face the sun directly. He was not stupid, but just by looking at the almost white sunlight in the sky, he knew how strong the sun was.

He felt a little sad, "I heard that there was a flood in Shengzhou, but it hasn't rained in Beijing for more than a month. The weather this year is a bit weird."

Several other people also raised their heads slightly to look at the bright sunshine in the sky.

Bai Shan was also worried, "I'm afraid there will be a big disaster this year, but I just hope there won't be any man-made disasters."

Man Bao: "It's difficult. Whether it's excessive heat or floods, epidemics are prone to occur."

Bai Erlang: "We're already halfway through this year. It's so hot now. Isn't this already a disaster?"

Zhou Lijun is worried about his family, "I don't know how my family is doing now. I just hope things go well for us in Luojiang County."

Liutou, who already knew a lot of words, immediately responded, "Sure!"

Zhou Lijun stretched out his hand and pinched his face and said with a smile: "What you say doesn't count, my sister-in-law's says. Sister-in-law, you are the reincarnation of a fairy, please tell me quickly."

Manbao:……

Mr. Zhuang and Bai Shan:...

Bai Erlang had always been skeptical about this statement and was half-believing it. Seeing Zhou Lijun mention it again, he looked at Man Bao openly and asked: "Are you really the reincarnation of a fairy?"

Man Bao: "If I really know, even if I say I don't, then it will be true."

Bai Erlang thought it was true, but he couldn't help but be curious. Since he couldn't ask Man Bao, he asked Bai Shan, "Do you think she is?"

Bai Shan poured out the pounded medicine and looked at Bai Erlang silently.

Mr. Zhuang had a headache, so he called him and said: "Bai hasn't come back until now. It's hot now. Don't let him stay out for a long time. Go and find him."

Bai Erlang was stunned for a moment and then asked: "My eldest brother is an adult now, so he shouldn't suffer from heatstroke. Lixue and the others are still outside."
