The whole family travels through time: escape from famine! No cheat codes yet!

Shen Youyou looked embarrassed and felt very sorry for Brother Dabao.

But when she thought of that possibility, she wanted to scream again, woooo!

Shen Zhiqiu hurriedly pulled Shen Youyou over to check her up and down, and Li Jingshu was so anxious that tears came out.

"There was no snake and it didn't bite me." Shen Youyou hurriedly explained.

"What happened? Why are you suddenly screaming?" the three of them asked in unison.

“I think I might have head lice.”

Her scalp was itchy just now, so she scratched it, but suddenly she remembered that she hadn't taken a shower or washed her hair for more than a month. She wondered if she had lice. She might go crazy just thinking about that.

But she really didn't expect that she would scare her eldest brother so much that he fell down from the tree, so she asked embarrassedly: "Brother Dabao, are you okay after falling down?"

Dabao breathed a sigh of relief: "I'm fine, my arm just hurts a little, I think I sprained it, it's nothing serious, I can still move."

Old Mrs. Hua and Grandpa Shen heard the scream and came over, just in time to hear what their granddaughter said.

Old Lady Hua was helpless: "Is it normal to have lice? How long have you not showered or washed your hair? You are startled all day long. I am so scared that my heart is pounding."

"Yoyo has lived in the city for a long time and has never had lice, so it's not surprising that her voice is a little loud." Old Lady Wang, who came right after Old Lady Hua, said.

"Yeah, it's okay. Grandpa Guo will give you some lice medicine later. There's water now. Use it a few times and the lice will be gone."

There were indeed a lot of lice medicines in Doctor Guo’s luggage. There was a beautiful patch of chinaberry trees on the back mountain of Shenjia Village.

Moreover, it has great medicinal value. Both its fruit and bark have medicinal value and can kill insects.

He went to pick them frequently and made them into medicine powder. When he was in the village, people's lives were very difficult. Food and clothing were problems. They didn't have time to take a bath or wash their hair, so they often got lice. The villagers would often buy them, so he made a lot.

We were all from the same village, and he sold it very cheaply, only two cents a bag, so everyone could afford it.

Shen Youyou was so surprised that she nodded quickly. Thinking about the little bugs crawling in her hair, she wanted to shave her head.

Doctor Guo checked Dabao again and said, "It's okay, you're a strong kid, just a little twisted. It will hurt for at least two days. Just don't lift anything heavy."

Dabao smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Grandpa Guo, I will pay attention to it."

Shen Zhiqiu was relieved to see that both children were fine, so everyone did what they were supposed to do, but they didn't let Shen Dabao climb the tree.

Shen Youyou saw that she and Brother Dabao were partners, so she didn't need to do that anymore, so she decided to study how to extract rubber from dry leaves first.

Shen Luming followed her excitedly and whispered, "Sister, my head itches too!"

"I'll wash yours later." They probably all have lice on their heads now.

Walking back to the well, where the dry leaves were piled, they were almost like a small hill. Shen Youyou hurriedly said, "Okay, that's enough for now. Now aunts and uncles, help me clean all the leaves."

Old Lady Hua asked, "What are you doing?"

"Grandma, look at our feet. We are either wearing straw sandals or, like me, wearing the last pair of shoes. Our toes are sticking out and the soles are almost worn out. It will get colder and colder. If we get to the north and it snows, our toes will freeze off."

Shen Youyou gulped down the water and continued, "I was thinking of asking you to make rubber shoes that won't get wet even when it rains or snows."

Although the old lady knew that her granddaughter had many tricks, she still gasped: "There are shoes like this?"

Shen Youyou nodded: "When have I ever lied to you?"

The women were all very surprised. Who would want to wear straw sandals while walking on a mountain road? They were poor, but not stupid. Wearing straw sandals while walking on a mountain road, and for a long distance, would almost make their feet rotten. How could they not feel the pain?

Isn't it just washing leaves? It's simple and guaranteed to be clean.

"Hey, you, can you do it under our current conditions?"

Li Jingshu asked worriedly. If it were modern times, he really believed his daughter could do it. She could buy any material she wanted.

But it’s hard to say now.

Shen Youyou made an "oh" gesture to her mother: "If you have tools, use the tools. If you don't have tools, there are ways without tools. Don't worry, mother."

Li Jingshu was speechless when she saw her daughter's arrogant look. She was exactly the same as her father at this moment.

"Mom, you guys should also put up the pot and boil the cleaned Eucommia ulmoides seed skin in a large pot. Use filtered water!"

This step may help soften the seed coat and remove some of the non-rubbery components.

"Okay, I don't know if you should do it or we should do it."

Li Jingshu felt like a brick, ready to move wherever there was trouble.

Shen Youyou smiled and called out to the old ladies, "Grandmothers, do you know what size shoes the other people in the family wear?"

Old Mrs. Fang was quite enthusiastic: "I know. Yoyo, what do you want us to do?"

"You can sew socks according to the size of your family members' feet, and make them slightly bigger. For example, when you wear those socks, you can put on a pair of wolfskin socks of the same size. One pair for each person. If you don't have an old lady at home, you can stop washing leaves and sew socks."

She was about to turn around and call her sisters, but then she thought of something and turned back and said, "Grandmothers, if you can't see clearly while sewing, you can switch jobs with the women at home."

"After you boil it, take out the seed skins and rinse them with clean water to remove the foam and impurities on the surface."

Li Jingshu looked at her daughter who was running away and shouted: You are wearing men's clothes and you really think of yourself as a tomboy. Why are you running so fast? Aren't you afraid of falling?

"I know, I won't fall!" In fact, the speed did not decrease at all.

What's more, the men who were cutting the bark and the boys and girls who were picking the fruits were working as if they were competing, sweating profusely and not even taking a break.

"Brothers and sisters, stop picking fruits and seeds. Come down and cut grass for yourself and burn the ash. It's urgent!"

It's true, Shen Youyou has a lot of prestige in the boys and girls group, and they can't act without being given orders.

The boys cut the grass while the girls burned the ash. Then, following Shen Youyou's instructions, they filtered out the ash water and filtered it several times.

"Pour these filtered ones into the wooden basin and soak the boiled and washed leaves."

However, she didn't know how long it would take to soak. After all, she had never soaked it with wood ash before. She would just have to see how it went and take a closer look herself.

This step is to help break down the non-rubber components of the seed coat and make the rubber component easier to separate.

"If there are not enough wooden basins or barrels, we can use the bamboo tubes that were originally used to hold water."

There were too many leaves, and Shen Youyou felt that they were not enough.

"That bamboo tube must be filled with water. Don't mess around, or else Uncle San will get angry." Daya reminded.

Shen Youyou smiled and said, "I have thought of a better way to store water. Don't worry, it's much more convenient than a bamboo tube."

Before, her father asked him to make a bucket. At that time, Shen Youyou was still wondering how to make the mold?

Now she knows everything and her brain is active. She can make a big bucket for storing water for her father without using a mold.

Any size is fine, haha!

After all the leaves were processed and soaked, the women started to clean the pots and boil water.

It was gradually getting dark, and the strong laborers came back one after another, carrying and pushing the Eucommia bark.

Behind him were some old men holding their weapons.

This is quite a harvest!
