She was driven away by her own mother at the beginning, and she became rich by cultivating immortals

Chapter 11 Skin Care Cream

Seeing the doubt in Jiang Chuci's eyes, Jiang Yilin's heart skipped a beat.

So he was asking for trouble and betrayed himself?!
"Brother, so the money you hid was earned secretly?"

Jiang Yilin was in poor health, and his family didn't allow him to do heavy work. In the past, he didn't have to go to the fields to earn work points. After the production team was abolished, he was no longer required to farm.

He didn't know where he earned the money secretly, but he used it to supplement the family income occasionally without letting his family find out. He wanted to write a letter to explain the saved money before he died.

As a result, when Jiang Chuci came back, he told her everything. However, her second sister didn't think too much about it and thought it was his own pocket money.

Jiang Yilin was thinking too much, and his guilty gaze was wandering.

"No, I was just joking, haha." After laughing, Jiang Yilin turned around and walked away, walking slowly like an elderly grandfather.

Jiang Chuci could catch up but she was too lazy to expose the truth. She could just make more money in the future.

And she already had a plan in mind.

……

At the end of March, light rain came.

The mountain is fresh and quiet, with green grass and peaceful and elegant scenery.

Jiang Moxue had a hat on her head, which covered half of her face, so she could hardly see the road clearly.

Hearing the sound of the wooden stick cutting through the obstacles in front of her, she grabbed the hat with her hands and lifted it up.

"Sister, is it really okay for us to sneak up the mountain?"

"I told mom to go to the village doctor to see when to remove the stitches. You will accompany me."

After Jiang Chuci finished speaking, she suddenly squatted down and swept the wooden stick through the grass.

"Will mom find out?" Jiang Moxue saw that she seemed to have discovered something, and answered herself: "I'm not afraid if she finds out. I'm used to being beaten anyway."

"Sister, what good stuff did you find?"

She ran over and squatted down, seeing only a few weeds but not much else.

Her sister said she was going up the mountain to find something good to make money, so she followed happily.

"This is a medicinal herb that can be made into a skin care ointment." Jiang Chuci gently pulled away the weeds with a wooden stick, and then dug the soil with her hands.

Jiang Moxue didn't understand what skin care ointment was, but she knew that medicinal herbs were something that could be sold for money.

"let me help you!"

Jiang Chuci originally wanted to say no, for fear of damaging the herbs, but seeing how carefully she dug up the soil, she did not refuse.

In the past, my junior sisters always liked to make some skin care creams and sell them at the foot of the mountain, and then bring her a lot of interesting things and snacks back.

The herbs used in the skin care cream are not particularly precious. The main thing is that they contain spiritual power. She came here to try her luck and actually found the herbs.

The easiest way to make money is from girls and children. She still remembers this sentence.

In the original owner's memory, this place is not like the immortal continent, so she is not afraid of being imitated.

This will be her patented product.

After picking all the herbs in this area, Jiang Chuci and Jiang Moxue continued to look for some more.

There is enough to make one kilogram in total, and she plans to use it for experiments first.

After all, when it comes to using something on your face, no matter how confident you are, you still have to be careful.

The two sisters walked down the mountain, each carrying a basket.

Jiang Guosheng likes to weave all kinds of bamboo products, and each person in the family has one.

Jiang Moxue looked at the muddy road under her feet and walked slowly.

"Sister, is the skin care you are talking about the same as vanishing cream?"

Jiang Chuci: "It's a kind of ointment that can be applied on the face or body. It can repair damaged skin and effectively make the skin smoother."

Jiang Moxue was surprised: "Then can I use it too?"

"Of course, but you have to test it first and then sell it."

Jiang Chuci did not hide anything. Since she wanted to do business, it was impossible for her to hide it from her family.

"Wow! How much money can I make?" Jiang Moxue was more concerned about this.

Jiang Chuci thought for a while and said, "It's not certain yet. It depends on the cost calculation. If it's too expensive, people won't want to buy it." Jiang Moxue was confused. She raised her hat, turned around and pointed at her face.

"My face cracks every winter, and my mom always laughs at me for being a weakling. But with my sister's ointment, I don't feel any pain anymore."

Jiang Chuci smiled at her and said, "Yes, from now on, we won't be afraid of winter or summer."

She is a woman and is more willing to look for business opportunities in the female market.

Now that everyone's conditions have improved, they should be able to accept her ointment.

After returning home, Jiang Chuci washed a few stones she found along the way. It took her a lot of effort to carry them back.

A drizzle was falling and the chickens in the yard hid in their roosts.

She found a small stool, sat at the kitchen door, built a semicircle of stones, then picked up some firewood, threw it in and lit it.

The thick smoke drifted into the rain along the wind direction, intertwining with the fog.

Gao Chunling had just returned from next door when she saw the two sisters squatting at the kitchen door playing with fire.

"Oh my goodness, are you two planning to burn the house down?!"

Seeing her turn around to get water to put out the fire, Jiang Moxue stood up and explained: "Mom, my sister is roasting herbs, we didn't burn the house."

Gao Chunling was stunned: "Roasted herbs?"

"Yes." Jiang Moxue, who had changed her hairstyle to pigtails, nodded, the ends of her pigtails swaying.

Gao Chunling heaved a sigh of relief as she suddenly realized something: "Oh, this is the medicine your Grandpa Li prescribed. Be careful then, and don't set the house on fire."

Li Guochang always likes to make some strange medicines, and the villagers are used to it.

Jiang Moxue was confused. What did this have to do with Village Doctor Li?
Jiang Chuci smiled without saying anything. What a beautiful misunderstanding.

After she had finished processing the herbs in her own special way, she would grind them into ashes.

It was already getting dark, and it gets dark quickly on cloudy days.

"The vegetables are growing so well this year." Gao Chunling walked into the kitchen with a smile on her face, holding the vegetables she had just picked from the fields.

Jiang Chuci packed up the crushed herbs first. She still lacked a tool to cook them, and using an iron pot was definitely not realistic.

And she has to sell other things first, and it will take at least half a month to make the ointment and conduct experiments.

Just as I brought the herb ash back to the house and put it away, Jiang Moxue's exclamation was heard outside.

"Grandpa, why are you picking up trash again?"

"Hey, I just happened to see this while I was walking, maybe it can be useful."

Jiang Guosheng had just finished speaking with a guilty look when he caught a glimpse of Jiang Chuci's helpless eyes.

"I'm going to wash up."

He walked away carrying a few dirty things that were unrecognizable.

Jiang Moxue stamped her feet and sighed to Jiang Chuci: "Sister, Grandpa's old habits really can't be changed."

"It's okay, let him be." Jiang Chuci walked out of the main room and went to the kitchen to see if there were any tools that could be used.

Jiang Moxue also took off her hat and went to add firewood to the stove.

Jiang Guosheng always likes to walk around the village and pick up anything he sees and take it home.

In his words, garbage will be put to good use one day.

But if it is really a good thing, why would anyone be willing to throw it away?

Jiang Chuci searched for a long time but couldn't find anything useful. Suddenly she remembered the pile of junk her grandfather had collected. Could it really come in handy?
I sneaked in to search with an unsure attitude, and actually found an old object that looked like a medicine cauldron.

It's very clean and dust-free. You can tell that the owner wipes it frequently.

It's just that there's something like grease on top, covering up the original appearance.

"Granddaughter, what are you looking for here?"

Family members who see this, there were skin care products in that era, but many people could not use them, and it’s almost 90 years old here, so spray lightly.
