The Virtuous Concubine

As Nanny Luo spoke, she began to massage Malu again. Her technique was exquisite, and Malu felt his whole body relax, and his originally depressed mood also improved a lot.

The plan was almost clear, and she fell asleep after a big stone in her heart fell off. Seeing this, Luo Ma did not stop her hand movements, but only signaled everyone to keep quiet with her eyes, and then went out to check on the Fourth Prince for a long time.

Malu slept for a long time. When she woke up, the plump and white Fourth Prince was lying in the cradle beside her, giggling at her. Seeing the happy baby, she was also very happy. She ordered a meal and ate a few mouthfuls quickly, then asked Bai Fu to find her some wool, the most primitive kind, from sheep, as well as some iron combs, wooden polished needles and other tools.

Bai Fu was stunned. What? What is this?

Seeing this, Malu didn't want to embarrass her. Moreover, Malu suddenly realized that many people were watching her every move. If she prepared everything at once according to the history of textile development and crochet tutorials she bought from the system, it would be difficult to explain how she could do it.

You still have to do it one by one!

So Malu changed his mind and said, "Forget it, wool is enough! The more the better, the more complete the better. It would be best if it were all the wool from a sheep, just a few of the larger parts."

After hearing this, Bai Fu went to the imperial kitchen - the steward of the imperial kitchen was De Guiren's grandfather, and the imperial kitchen provided a lot of mutton every day, so these things must be there.

Sure enough, Bai Fu came back soon and said that the imperial kitchen would slaughter a new sheep and send her wool, but the wool was very dirty and needed to be processed in advance, which might take some time. Ma Lu asked someone to remind the imperial kitchen to use borax, brine, soda ash, or even the most common stove ash in the imperial kitchen, mixed with water to wash, so that the grease would be easier to wash off.

This method really worked. The people in the imperial kitchen were very grateful to Malu, because the wool was only sheared twice a year, and it was very dirty, with old grease, and it was not easy to wash. But according to Malu's instructions, they added stove ash and hot water, and washed it by hand a few times, and the effect was very obvious.

After washing and drying, the people from the imperial kitchen hurriedly delivered it to Yonghe Palace.

Bai Xia saw the master sitting on the bed, touching the wool with great interest, and asked cautiously: "Master, what do you want to...?"

Malu smiled and said, "Making wool felt."

Bai Fu had seen wool felt before, so she was also curious: "Master, why don't you just ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs for wool felt? Why make it from scratch?" She thought that Malu was too bored during her confinement, so she was looking for a way to kill time. But wool felt is used to make tents or carpets, it's rough and hard, what is it for?

Malu patiently explained to them: "The wool felt I made is for wearing. I will show it to you later."

In fact, according to the book, it should be bleached and then dyed, but in order to save time, Malu simply did not look for a substitute for bleach and just dyed it directly when the time came.

Moreover, she would definitely let Kangxi and Xiaozhuang wear these woolen clothes.

If they don't wear it, how can they show that they respect Mongolia and sympathize with the world?

Neither of them would miss this opportunity to show off and gain fame. As for what kind of toxic dye to use, she still needed to read books, experiment and think. Because the system set too many restrictions for her, she had no choice but to find a loophole.

For example, the textile and crochet, she used her embroidery skills and these things to get the system to grant her permission, and double the points to buy books and materials. And dyes are also inseparable from textiles and painting.

Using the excuse that calligraphy and painting are inseparable and textile skills also require dyes, Malu bought a book about dyes. It is normal for this book to say that dyes are toxic. Which book wants to fully introduce the history of textile and dye development without mentioning the shortcomings of dyes at each stage?

Sure enough, after opening it and searching carefully, I found that the content in this regard is not only comprehensive, but also the key point - after all, the system needs to prompt security risks and ensure the safety of the tasker.

After all these things were ready, Malu began to pretend to sort the wool. She sorted them roughly by length, which was already very tiring. Malu then pretended to be distressed and put down the wool in her hand, asking Bai Xia to bring her paper and pen.

She held her chin and thought for a while before slowly drawing a roller combing machine on the paper and handed it to Bai Fu: "Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and ask if there are any skilled craftsmen who can sort this without manual work. I've been doing this for a while and my hands are already sore."

Bai Fu felt distressed. She had long regarded Malu as her master and was determined to be Malu's most intimate person. She asked Malu to stop doing it: "Master, can't you just leave this simple job to us?"

Malu shook his head: "Aren't you tired of doing it? I can't feel at ease just by leaving it to you."

Bai Fu and Bai Xia were in tears after hearing this. They had met many bosses who were stupid and heartless. Such people often made decisions based on their brains and their sudden inspiration, without considering the feasibility or other people's feelings.

I just think, I gave the order, you have to listen to me and complete it according to my requirements. As for any difficulties, she doesn't care about you.

In modern times, it would be fine, the worst that could happen is that she would just quit her job. But in this era, even if she was a eunuch who was often ordered to jump into the Taiye Lake to find pearls for her, she would have to do it. But Malu never did that. She said that she would think about these issues carefully before the task, and even preferred to do many things herself.

Bai Xia went to find some ointment for her hands, while Bai Fu went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to negotiate with the supervisor.

Malu was naturally leisurely eating some fruit and looking after the child. Before going to bed at night, Nanny Luo would come to take care of her again.

It was unknown how long it would take for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make this machine, so Bai Xia gathered all the wool and carefully put it away. This was wool that the master had personally selected, so it couldn't be left lying around.

The system finally couldn't help but speak out: "You are skirting the line by doing this."

Malu thought it would have stopped him a long time ago: "What? I just want to make some woolen clothes and open up the Ren and Du meridians from weaving to embroidery. What's wrong? No way, no way, you won't let me learn, right?"

The system really couldn't do anything to her. After all, everything was in compliance with the regulations and in line with the production level of the current dynasty. There was nothing out of the ordinary.

It's just that the system is so anxious. It thinks that it's okay for the tasker to protect himself or fight back, but if he takes the initiative to harm others, and is the most respected and protected person in this dynasty, if he is found out, he will definitely be killed. Even if the tasker takes advantage of the information gap, which is something that this world can't find out, it is still worried.

If she takes shortcuts like this too often, will she start to treat human life as worthless in the future?

Will Malu lose his original intention?

In fact, even if the system's worries are realized, the system will only discover a truth that violates the system settings.

In such a world, if you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose your conscience, you can earn more.

Moreover, what Malu did only hurt Kangxi and Xiaozhuang, but could benefit people all over the world, so she had no psychological burden at all in doing it. She just thought of these two people enjoying the support of the world, and now, it was time to pay back.
