Su Shian continued to ask: "What should I do if I can't clean it thoroughly?"

"Then just try your best to clean it." Deng Xian explained patiently, but there was still a hint of helplessness in her eyes. She thought, why is this girl so stubborn?

However, Su Shian was still worried: "But I always feel that this is not hygienic enough. What if it gets moldy or breeds bugs?"

"An An, you seem to have too many questions." Deng Xian sighed helplessly. She really couldn't understand why Su Shian had so many concerns.

"Yes, yes, An'an, don't ask too many questions." At this time, Su Shining and Hongdou couldn't stand listening any longer. They had actually seen the items used by their elders, and they were already very satisfied and happy to be able to use a cloth menstrual belt. After all, in that era, many women could not even enjoy such basic conditions.

Su Shian admitted frankly: "Yes, it's normal for me to have problems!" She knew that she might be too picky, but she just couldn't accept the idea of washing the menstrual belt. Maybe it was because she grew up in a relatively privileged environment and had higher requirements for hygiene conditions.

Deng Xian was not angry when she heard this. Instead, she said with interest, "Then An An, tell me your opinion."

Su Shian tilted his head and asked seriously, "Why not use paper?"

Su Shining was shocked, staring at Su Shian with wide eyes, and said in disbelief: "Anan, are you talking about writing paper? Do you know how much a piece of paper is worth? It is not cheaper than cloth, and it is also very hard..."

Su Shian quickly waved his hands and explained, "Of course not! We need to use paper that is softer, finer, and cleaner than writing paper."

Hongdou couldn't help but curiously ask after hearing this: "Softer and more delicate paper? An An, have you seen it?"

Wu Jin didn't understand this yet, she just listened quietly without making any comments. She was more curious about the topic of menstruation than anything else. However, she kept every word Deng Xian said in her heart. Later, she followed Deng Xian to do needlework and sewed the first menstrual belt in her life.

Su Shian nodded firmly and answered seriously, "Well, although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, this is what is written in the book that Brother Caichun gave me."

Su Shining thought to himself: Although I am not keen on reading, I have read some books after all, how could I not know this? My sister is clearly lying at this moment, isn't she afraid of being exposed on the spot?

Just when Su Shi Ning was still hesitating whether to expose Su Shi An's lie in person, Su Shi An had already winked at her and asked in a tender voice: "Sister, am I right?"

Seeing this, Su Shining had no choice but to respond: "Uh... yes, An An, as long as you can do it."

"I will." Su Shian's eyes were firm and his tone was very confident. "Mom, sister, sister Hongdou, we can make paper by ourselves and use it to make menstrual belts. After use, throw it directly into the toilet, so there is no need to wash it."

Although Deng Xian was skeptical about whether such paper existed, she was willing to believe that Su Shian would try to fiddle with it. Anyway, let her try it! If it really succeeded, then all of them would be able to live more easily during this special period: "I am very much looking forward to An An being able to make it, and I really don't want to wash it."

"Great, you guys just wait for the good news I'll bring you. Wu Jin, follow me." Su Shian happily took Wu Jin's hand and ran towards the backyard. She carefully observed the surrounding environment and felt that this place was very suitable for carrying out this plan. Then, she began to make a plan and select trees. Fortunately, Wu Jin was by her side, and someone even did the work of carrying the wood.

After Deng Xian, Deng Su and Shi An left with Wu Jin, they turned to Hong Dou and said earnestly, "Hong Dou, go home and have a good rest today. Stay home and rest the day after tomorrow. After a couple of days, when you feel better, you can go back to the shop and get busy."

Hongdou was embarrassed and quickly refused: "This... I'm actually fine, there's no problem with the work..."

Su Shining on the side also advised: "Sister Hongdou, you should listen to my mother. She must be saying this for your own good. What you need most now is to go home and have a good rest."

Deng Xian nodded and continued, "Yes, Hongdou. Especially remember, you must not touch cold water these days. Also, don't take a sitz bath. Just wipe your body lightly with water. Do you understand?" She knew very well that Hongdou must have a lot of work waiting for her to do at home, but as an elder, she still had to say some things.

Afterwards, Deng Xian carefully wrapped the newly made menstrual belts with cloth and handed them to Hongdou, telling her to take them home. At the same time, she also told her to come home tomorrow and continue making menstrual belts with Su Shining.

Hongdou was very grateful and kept thanking her. She even expressed her willingness to help Deng Xian in return. Su Shining chuckled and said, "Sister Hongdou, with An An who loves to make trouble, you will definitely have no shortage of opportunities to do things in the future!"

Hearing this, Hongdou finally calmed down, turned around and left silently to go home. However, at this moment, Zhao Yi ran in hurriedly, and knocked the things in Hongdou's hand down. Fortunately, Zhao Yi reacted quickly and caught the dropped things, but the things in them were already seen clearly by him. Then, surprisingly, Zhao Yi, who was always steady, blushed rarely. Seeing this, Hongdou quickly took back her things, and then ran out of the door quickly, leaving Zhao Yi alone at a loss at the door.

On the other side, Su Shian and Wu Jin had just returned from the backyard and missed the scene that just happened. Su Shian saw Zhao Yi standing at the door and felt a little confused, so he asked, "Uncle Zhao, what are you doing standing here?"

Zhao Yi replied with some stammering: "I...I came here to look for the girl..."

At this moment, Su Shian noticed that Zhao Yi's face was unusually red, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious, and asked softly: "Uncle Zhao, why is your face so red?"

Deng Xian had of course witnessed everything that had just happened, so she spoke up to help Zhao Yi out: "Alright. An An, don't worry about these trivial matters, let Uncle Zhao get down to business! You should just go and do your own thing."
