Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Lin Yuxi didn't understand what Lu Yun meant until she came to block her butt with a slightly red face. No wonder she felt uncomfortable with a bloated stomach. She thought she had eaten too much sugar water. She looked around and saw no one. Fortunately, otherwise it would be embarrassing. The master and servant hurried back.

Back at the West Garden, Luyun told Lin Yuxi to go to the women's room to get the cloth bag. Chunlan came in and untied Lin Yuxi's skirt. Lin Yuxi pushed her hand away: "I'll do it myself."

Luyun came back soon, holding a cloth bag made of wood ash in her hand, and explained to her with a blushing face how to use it.

Lin Yuxi held the cloth bag and observed it again and again. It was a small strip of cloth with thin threads at both ends. Was this an ancient sanitary napkin?

She wanted to sniff the small strip of cloth to smell what was sewn inside, but Luyun quickly stopped her.

"What's in it?" After thinking about it carefully, he smelled it and it didn't smell good, so he asked.

“It’s wood ash.”

灰?

Lin Yuxi's forehead twitched suddenly. Was there ash in it? That would be so unclean. She shook her head quickly. She didn't dare to use this thing. Who knew if she would get some gynecological disease after using it.

"Everyone uses this cloth bag, and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it!" Lu Yun couldn't help but have a headache. This cloth bag was the only item for Guishui. If the girl didn't use the cloth bag, she would have nothing else to use, so she tried to persuade her kindly.

Lin Yuxi didn't care. Gynecological diseases were hidden. The disease was in the most private place. Who would dare to let the doctor look there? Even if there was a disease, she wouldn't dare to say it out. She didn't dare to try it easily.

Lu Yun really wanted to bang her head against the wall, but as a servant she couldn't force her master, so she could only accompany Lin Yuxi helplessly.

In just a short while, the new skirt was soaked again, and there was a blood stain on her buttocks. If this continued, no matter how many skirts she had, they would not be able to withstand her torment.

Lin Yuxi gritted her teeth and tied it up, but she didn't dare to move easily. She sat upright on the stool without moving an inch. Who knew if she moved, the grass ash would fly in. The thought made her feel sick.

Cuiping brought back mung bean soup and roujiamo to the old lady, and saw Lin Yuxi stiff as a doll. Lin Yuxi threw her a tael of silver and asked her to buy some cotton immediately. Cuiping thought she wanted to make a doll, so she said:

"There are still some left from the last time I made the dolls. How many do you want, girl?"

"How much is left? Take it all out."

"It would make a soft pillow."

She asked Cuiping to take all the cotton and boil it in water, and asked Luyun to find some clean cloth and boil it as well. They should dry the cotton in the sun while the sun was strong. After more than half an hour, Cuiping brought the dried cotton and cloth, and Lin Yuxi taught them how to make cotton bags.

In fact, both Luyun and Cuiping knew how to make the cloth bag, but stuffing cotton into the cloth bag? I have never heard of using it in this way, but girls have many ideas, so they did it anyway.

As soon as one was made, Lin Yuxi couldn't wait to put it on. She could walk normally now. Cotton is really safe to use.

"You have so many ideas, girl. But the cotton stuffed in the bags is not easy to remove and wash." Cuiping put away the six cloth bags and placed them in a dry place.

"Why take it apart and wash it? Just throw it away after use. It's clean and convenient." Lin Yuxi curled her lips. The cloth was stained with blood and had to be reused. Even if it was boiled in boiling water, it would still cause psychological trauma after using it.

"Isn't that a very high expense?" Cotton is cheaper in the summer, but its price often doubles when the weather turns cold. It would be such a waste to just throw it away after use.

Lin Yuxi disagreed. Life would be better and she would have more money. Sanitary pads were a necessity during menstruation and could not be saved. If she lost her health because of a small amount of money, it would not be worth it.

As soon as the sky turned light the next day, Lin Yuxi tossed and turned in bed, holding her stomach. Lu Yun heard the noise and hurriedly lifted the curtain to take a look.

She knew at a glance that Lin Yuxi had a stomachache. She had also encountered the same situation, but she was not so precious and could just endure it. However, Lin Yuxi was the master, and Luyun did not dare to neglect her. She hurriedly called Chunlan and asked her to ask the old lady to call a doctor.

Cuiping also woke up at this time. When she heard that Lin Yuxi had a stomachache, she immediately went to boil some brown sugar water and brought it to her. Unexpectedly, it didn't work for Lin Yuxi after she drank it. Chunlan hurriedly brought a doctor in.

The doctor felt his pulse and said, "It's nothing serious. It's just that the blood circulation in your stomach is not smooth. You will be fine after taking a few doses of blood-activating medicine."

The maids were relieved to hear that Lin Yuxi was fine. Cuiping took the doctor's prescription and went to the pharmacy to get the medicine. She personally watched the fire boil and brought it to Lin Yuxi.

Lin Yuxi had already been sweating from the pain. She heard that it was a blood-activating medicine, so she picked it up and drank it in one gulp. After taking a sip, she spat and cried bitterly. Seeing this, Lu Yun picked up a piece of candied fruit and fed it to her: "A bitter medicine is good."

Lin Yuxi had no other choice, her stomach hurt so much that she had to bite the bullet and swallow the medicine in one gulp while pinching her nose. Lu Yun helped her lie down and rest. After a while, Lin Yuxi felt that her stomach pain was not so severe anymore, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Girl, you should use the cloth bag again from now on. You are too weak to bear the tossing and turning of your body."

Lu Yun advised, Lin Yuxi frowned, she didn't think it was a problem with the cotton ball, the fabric was the same and had been disinfected, could it be that the dust was cleaner than cotton? Stomachache was just a physiological problem, it was normal.

However, Lin Yuxi has always been a good and studious child. The doctor said that her blood circulation was not smooth, and she did feel much better after taking the medicine just now.

"Let me have a look at the doctor's prescription."

Cuiping took out the folded prescription from her sleeve and handed it over. Lin Yuxi saw some herbs such as Leonurus japonicus and Cyperus rotundus listed on it. She held the prescription tightly in her hand with a smile on her face.

"Weigh one pound of each medicine on this prescription and add mint."

Luyun and Cuiping both widened their eyes when they heard this.

"One pound? You don't need that much to make medicine."

Lin Yuxi smiled mysteriously. Who said she was used to make medicine? She has her own uses.

Cuiping came back with Cuizhu. Lin Yuxi looked at the sky and saw that the sun was already setting. Cuiping put the herbs on the table and asked curiously, "Miss, how do you use these herbs?"

"To make cotton bags, of course."

Cuiping was stunned again and asked curiously, "Are you going to sew the herbs into the cloth bag?"

Lin Yuxi picked up the herbs and smelled them, then said angrily, "Stupid, just put them in directly. Regardless of whether it works or not, it will hurt the first thing."

After saying this, she divided the herbs into two portions, and gave one portion to Chunlan, the newly selected second-class maid, and instructed her: "Take it and fumigate the cotton bag the same way you fumigate clothes." Chunlan bowed in response and took the ingredients.

Lin Yuxi pushed the remaining herbs to Cuiping and said, "Boil them into a thick juice, filter out the residue, put the cotton in, boil it, dry it, and sew it into a cloth bag. It's too late today, so do it tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Chunlan presented the smoked cotton bags.

Lin Yuxi took one and smelled it, and she felt a refreshing mint scent coming to her nose. She immediately felt a lot more comfortable. Mint can refresh the mind and cover up some odors.

Lin Yuxi was very satisfied and gave Chunlan some money. Chunlan took the money and remained quiet, not showing off. Lin Yuxi showed approval when she saw this.

Around noon, Cuiping also brought a bag of processed cotton. Lin Yuxi picked it up and smelled it, saying, "The smell of the cooked ones is stronger. I don't know which one is better. Let me try it first. You can share some with me. If the herbs are not enough, buy some more."

Cuiping smiled so much that her eyebrows curved into crescent shapes. She thanked Lin Yuxi and went to distribute the cotton wool bags.

Lin Yuxi tried both and still felt that the cooked ones were better. Since she made more this time, after dinner, she picked up a few and walked towards the old lady's garden.
