The self-reversal of the cannon fodder fat wife

Yinuo and Gu Yun stayed at the farm for several days. In addition to the matters on the farm, Yinuo also found Huqin alone and asked her to help him with another task.

Those were the five pieces of cotton gauze she had bought before, which she brought along this time with the purpose of making masks individually at Gu Yun's farm.

The production of masks has very high requirements for the environment. Gu Yun's farm is very clean, with no people coming in and out. It is closest to Hu Qin's home, so it is not difficult for her to come here every day to make masks, and she is not afraid of being seen by others.

Although he had not had much contact with Huqin, Yinuo still had an inexplicable trust in Huqin's character. Although masks would surely be made by many people after they became a best-seller, it didn't matter. Yinuo wanted to popularize this product across the country, and when more people made it, the price of masks would be cheaper and ordinary people would be able to afford them.

Yinuo came to Huqin's house in person and brought some cookies she made for Zhouqi to eat.

Huqin asked her to sit down shyly: "Just come and sit down, why do you bring food? It's embarrassing."

Yinuo smiled and said, "Of course I have something to ask you."

Hu Qin was curious: "Is there anything else I can help you with?"

In her heart, Yinuo is the most amazing woman she has ever met. She is skilled in medicine, cooking, and business, and she looks like a fairy. How can there be such a perfect woman?

Yinuo was amused by her: "Sister Qin, you said before that your female workers are good, so I came to you today for this matter."

So Yinuo told her that he wanted to ask her to make masks for him, gave her two taels of silver every month, asked her not to raise chickens, and told her the purpose of masks and his original intention.

Huqin admired Yinuo's broad mind. To become a female doctor, one must care about the people and have great love in their heart, which is something that ordinary people like them cannot achieve.

"I have to agree. It's such a meaningful thing, and I can make money. How can I not agree?"

She immediately agreed to take the job. Not only could she get paid, but she could also help people. Huqin was very willing. She originally proposed to take only one or two taels of silver, the same as others, but Yinuo did not agree. Although this job was easier than others, it was also very invigorating. Yinuo asked her to accept it no matter what.

Huqin couldn't persuade her, but she silently remembered Yinuo's kindness in her heart. She must do better when making masks in the future, and also help her with other things she can.

"But this... mask, I have never made one before, I don't know how to make it?"

"Are there drawings and dimensions?" It was the first time she had heard of this and she really had no idea how to do it.

Yinuo took out a mask from his sleeve. It was made in the mansion before and used as a model.

"This was made by a maid in my mansion. She is also good at housework. She will work with you in the future."

As she said this, she handed the mask in her hand to Huqin. Huqin didn't hesitate and took it to study it.

"Is this cotton gauze? This cloth is not expensive, it's quite cheap. It's so thick, it must have five or six layers, right?"

Yinuo knew she was an expert when she heard it, and was delighted: "Sister Qin, you are amazing, there are six floors here."

"Just follow this size, it's uniform."

Then she told Huqin the general production process.

Qixi had previously made masks for Yino at home. They were made based on modern cotton drawstring masks, and then ironed smooth and compacted with an ancient iron. They were also sterilized with high-temperature steam, and finally packed ten into a package and sealed with a leather bag made of pig bladder membrane.

The pig bladders were what Yinuo had asked Boss Zhu to leave for her. There were a lot of them, and they had been accumulated for two months. Boss Zhu would wash them before sending them to Teng's house. Under Yinuo's guidance, Coke and 7-Up took off the membrane of the pig bladders, and then washed and dried them with soap to get the final product.

When she first thought about making a mask, she considered making one out of pig bladder membrane, like the first mask made in ancient Greece.

The high density and fit of the bladder membrane make the masks seal very well, but the smell is difficult to remove and it is not breathable. In ancient times when technology was backward, it was not suitable for mass production and promotion. In addition, the special part of the pig bladder made it difficult for everyone to accept it.

In fact, there are records of masks in ancient China.

The book of rites, Quli, records: "When someone is facing the opponent with a sword on his back, he should cover his mouth and face the opponent." When people are about to vomit or sneeze, they will avoid facing the person sitting opposite them. This shows that people at that time already had the subconscious idea that covering their mouths and noses could prevent saliva from splashing.

"Liji Nei Ze" states: Men and women should not accept utensils from each other, share the same well, sleep on the same bed, or wear the same clothes; women should cover their faces when they go out. At this time, the face-covering appeared, which is the Chinese version of the early mask. The face-covering serves the idea of ​​men and women not being intimate with each other, mainly to prevent strange men from seeing women's body features.

From this time on, the requirements for women became more and more stringent. In the Southern and Northern Dynasties, some closed clothing even appeared. Women's "face clothes" were also called "big scarves". This kind of clothing "big scarves" is more like a head wrap, made of light and thin fabrics. While covering, it is also breathable and light-permeable, and does not block vision, just like the veil in the Middle East today.

This custom continued until the Tang Dynasty, when the cap appeared and its use developed to another level.

According to the records in Shiwu Jiyuan, "Scholars in today's world often use black gauze or blue gauze to connect the whole piece to the front of oil hats or felt hats to block the wind and dust, and to wear them as clothing for long journeys." The veil hat can block the sun, rain and insects in summer, keep out the cold and snow in winter, and block the sand when traveling. This kind of clothing has some of the functions of a mask, rather than being a completely ceremonial function.

The book that Yinuo traveled through is set after the Song Dynasty. Because it is fictional, people don't take the separation between men and women so seriously, and women don't need to wear veils when going out. The veils here are also used to block the sun, keep out insects and avoid the cold.

Based on this point, Inosit thought about it and finally decided to use cotton yarn as the material for this mask.

The cotton drawstring mask does not contain any high-tech content, but it can effectively isolate bacteria and was most suitable in ancient times.

Huqin knew it was not difficult to make and agreed readily. She was very efficient in doing things and immediately put down her work, went back to Yang's farm with Yinuo and started working right away.

Yinuo didn't waste any time and immediately called Qixi over. Together with Gu Yun, there were four people in total, and they finalized the production process, transportation arrangements, and personnel arrangements for the masks in just one afternoon.

In the future, the production of masks will be handed over to Qixi. For the time being, Huqin and Qixi will be the only ones making them. The relatives in the Gu family are all rich and don’t need to work, so the subsequent personnel arrangements will be left to Butler Wan to find people.

They should find people from the families of veterans working on the farm. This way, they can be reunited as a family, and the wives and daughters will also have income, so the overall family income will increase, and the Dingguo Mansion will no longer need to pay pensions.

Gu Yun and Yinuo spent a few more days arranging all the related matters and then returned to the city.
