Soapberry is a natural detergent!

Golden color has been beautiful since ancient times.

In the end, the father and daughter picked a lot, and Shen Tang’s small backpack was almost full.

When we went down the mountain, we also picked a lot of wild chrysanthemums all over the mountain.

Liu looked at the father and daughter who brought back a bunch of bitter yellow fruits and rolled her eyes at Shen Dashan.

"My daughter is ignorant, and you are also ignorant?"

"Mom, I asked Dad to pick it! This is a good thing! If we make it well, we can live a good life."

Liu didn't care. The bitter yellow fruit tree was full of them but no one wanted them. The birds and squirrels would eat them, so what good things could they make?

Shen Dashan just chuckled.

Before, his daughter was not mentally clear, and he just felt that he had missed a lot of family happiness.

Now that my daughter has finally recovered, she needs to enjoy life.

Looking at Shen Tang's curved eyebrows and eyes, the heart of this eight-foot-tall tough old father was about to melt.

Shen Tang poured the soapberries into a basin, found a pair of scissors and began to remove the kernels.

Shen Dashan found some bamboos and started making a fence with swift hands and feet.

Liu went into the house to pack her things.

The three members of the family are busy with their own things, but they have their own warm atmosphere.

next door.

"Grandma, uncle and his friends went up the mountain and brought back a bunch of yellow fruits."

"Tsk~, what's the use of this thing? It's inedible and it's poisonous." Shen Dahe heard his son come to report.

Wait, it's poisonous.

I don’t think that the eldest brother’s family would hold a grudge against them because of the unbalanced division of the property and want to poison them.

Shen Dahe called his daughter Shen Tao and asked her to keep an eye on him.

The younger son is a fool, so it’s better to let the daughter take charge.

So, Shen Tang saw Shen Tao standing beside the bamboo.

"Sister Xiaotang, what are you doing picking so many yellow fruits?"

Seeing that the other party did not respond to her, Shen Tao was unwilling to give up and spoke again.

“You can’t eat this.”

Shen Tang had long noticed that this cousin was constantly peeking around in the yard.

The feeling of stealing is extremely obvious!

Seeing that the other party ignored her, Shen Tao became a little annoyed. This fool actually didn't listen to her after he recovered.

"Uncle, Sister Xiaotang is just fine, you have to be careful with this thing."

Seeing that Shen Tang didn't even raise his head, Shen Tao turned and spoke to Shen Dashan.

Shen Dashan originally had a good impression of his niece. He thought she would take care of his daughter when she was at home, but he didn't expect that she was such a black-hearted person at such a young age.

If his daughter hadn't told him, he would have had no idea that his niece, who was about the same age as his daughter, was actually bullying Shen Tang behind her back. He even bought some little things for the girl when he saw them when he went to the town to buy wild goods.

Looking at Shen Tang's obedient appearance while picking the core, the more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this niece was not a good person.

"Are you teaching me what to do?"

How could he not know who sent this?

Shen Tang didn't expect that his father could actually retort like this, and he gave Shen Dashan a thumbs up on the spot.

I didn’t expect you to be such a father!

When Shen Tao heard these words spoken to her uncle, who was always kind to her, she was stunned.

He turned around and went into the house.

That's it?

However, the appearance of Shen Tao did remind her that making traditional soap is actually not that difficult. If someone is interested, they might be able to make it themselves.

Confidentiality work must also be improved.

"Dad! If you have some free time in a few days, let's replace the fence with a mud wall!"

How could Shen Dashan refuse?

As dusk deepened, a small basket of soapberries was successfully pitted.

Shen Tang shook his head and pounded his back.

No wonder pure handmade items are so expensive in later generations.

This is so tiring!

But soapberries alone are not enough, you also have to find some clam shells to extract some calcium carbonate and wood ash.

Shen Tang didn't throw away the remaining fruit core.

In later generations, many people also bought soapberry bracelets. In this era, they are very suitable for making Buddhist beads.

When the time comes, I can polish it and sell it to an old lady who worships Buddha, which will surely bring in some income.

Shen Tang thought about it and decided that it was not a good time to ask his parents for the land deed.

And whether the other party will give it to her or not is another matter. After all, she is just a child in their eyes now.

Fortunately, it is autumn and winter now, and the sowing will be in spring, so as long as we get the land before spring, it will be fine.

The sun sets and the chill sets in.

Shen Tang rubbed his hands and went into the utility room.

Liu cleaned up the afternoon and made room for a small meal.

A high stool and three small stools.

The meal was whole grain dumplings and a bowl of vegetable soup.

"These few days, while the weather is nice, I'll hire someone to build a small room and set up a stove."

Liu scooped a bowl of soup for Shen Tang neatly while giving instructions to Shen Dashan.

The other party nodded,

"Also, we don't have any farm tools at home. They've all been given to the second wife. There's no rush to use them now. Remember to buy two hoes when you go to the market in a few days."

Shen Tang held the vegetable soup and watched Shen Dashan and Liu talking about what they wanted to buy for the house.

Among them, he also kept asking Shen Tang what he wanted.

In her previous life, she had not had a deep family relationship.

Her parents divorced when she was young, and after they each started their own families, they got married again, and she seemed particularly redundant.

Since college, she has rarely returned home.

I thought that as long as I was good enough, they would always pay more attention to me.

But after knowing her outstanding abilities, her parents wanted to ask her for money to subsidize their family.

"What are you thinking about!"

Seeing her daughter distracted, Liu felt a little uneasy.

It’s because my daughter has a criminal record of nearly ten years.

"Nothing, I just think my parents are really good to me."

This is what she means.

At this moment, she really felt that she was their daughter.

"Dad, Mom, after the kitchen is built, can I have this small utility room?"

She thought that if she wanted to make soap, she had to be discreet.

Not to mention others, she was even worried about Shen Laoer's family next door.

Otherwise, Shen Tao would not have been sent to inquire in the afternoon.

"Of course you can. This room is too small. I'll build the kitchen in a few days, and Dad will ask someone to build you a bigger room in the back yard."

Shen Dashan was very happy to see his daughter making the request.

I'm needed, hehe.

Shen Tang just felt that Shen Dashan and his wife were really good parents in this era.

There is no idea of ​​favoring boys over girls, and I will not give up just because the original body is a fool.

After taking a deep breath, she spoke.

"Father, Mother, I..."

The words came to his lips, but he closed them again.

Shen Dashan and Liu put down their bowls and chopsticks and looked at Shen Tang.

"What's wrong? We're a family, just tell me what's going on."

Liu spoke gently.

I want to say it, I really want to say it.

"I want some lard!"

She was still not ready to confess. After all, the risk of exposing the system was too high.

"The yellow fruits I picked this afternoon can be made into soap. It can be used for washing clothes and bathing. It's clean and convenient."

But it needs oil.

Things in ancient times were not as developed as they are today, so the only thing she could use was lard.

"I know lard isn't cheap. But Mom, once the soap is ready, we can sell it for money!"

"I also want my parents to live a good life."

I want my parents to live a good life.

Shen Dashan and Liu immediately decided to go to Butcher Wang's house tomorrow to buy a pound of pork fat!

Who cares about the soap? I just want my daughter to be so filial!
