Back to the era with space supplies

Chapter 88 "Snake Egg"

Si Ningning planned to discuss it with other people later, and if there is a suitable opportunity, he will be equipped with two locks.

After untying the hemp rope on the lock ring, Si Ningning put the basket in the house, and took the wormwood that he pulled back at noon in front of the door to the well.

Charcoal is used to make mosquito-repellent incense, which is easy to stain the place. If it is by the well, just wash it with water after a while.

The wormwood needs to be kneaded into moxa. Although the wormwood was pulled out at noon, but the weather is hot and the leaves of the wormwood are thin, the surface of the wormwood is already wilted, and the edges have become very crisp. It is no problem to be broken into crumbs and kneaded into moxa.

That's right, it's a bit of a hassle.

Si Ningning kneaded for a long time, his neck was so sore that he only kneaded out a small cluster of moxa.

Although it was hard work, there was nothing I could do. I didn't expect this situation in advance, or else she would have bought a bunch of pesticides and incense.

The rubbed moxa was temporarily put aside, Si Ningning took out a hammer from the space, first knocked the charcoal into small pieces, and then slowly knocked it into powder, mixed the carbon powder and moxa 2:1, and stirred evenly.

Carefully take a little water out of the bucket, and make sure that the mixed toner and moxa can be kneaded into a ball.

Si Ningning plucked a few leaves from the mulberry tree by the well, put the pinched balls on them, and carefully took them back to the window sill to dry.

After nearly an hour of hard work, the final product is only five small balls the size of a baby's fist, and the efficiency is pitifully low.

Since ancient times, there has been an allusion of using wormwood to repel insects and mosquitoes. These will definitely play a role. Si Ningning only hopes that they can be up to date.

Not to mention one night, half a night, two or three hours, you have to persevere, right?
There was still a while before the end of work. After drying the mosquito coils, Si Ningning took out a hoe from the space and gently dug a few shallow ditches near the drainage ditch by the well. He took out the mint seeds that he sorted out before and sprinkled them in.

Mint has strong adaptability. Although this area is located under the shadow of trees, it has abundant water sources. There are many decayed leaves nearby, and the soil is quite fertile.

Once it germinates successfully, the growth will not be bad.

When it grows into a dense area, it happens to be the time when the sky is hot, and it can be used at that time.

Xu Shuhua is responsible for cooking this week, so she came back first in the evening.

Stepping into the house with two feet of mud, Xu Shuhua was taken aback when she saw Si Ningning there, then glanced back, took a few steps closer to Si Ningning's bed and sat down, "Ningning, there are good things!"

After working for several days in a row, Si Ningning was so tired that he was lying on the bed recovering from his dead body. Hearing this, he got up suspiciously, "What good thing?"

Xu Shuhua patted the sleeve on his sleeve, carefully reached into his pocket with one hand, and took out four eggs with green, green, and blue shells, "Wild duck eggs! Exactly four, one for each of us!"

As she spoke, her eyes subconsciously glanced out of the window again.

The meaning is obvious: there are only four eggs, and the domestic sales of female educated youths happen to be one per person, so there is no plan to alarm the male educated youths.

Si Ningning could understand, but she took out an egg from Xu Shuhua's hand with a toothache, turned it around and looked at it repeatedly, "This is a wild duck egg? Who said that?"

The shell color of this egg is like Tiffany blue with a layer of gray on the surface, the color is a bit dark, and each egg is not much bigger than a thumb, so it doesn't look like a wild duck egg.

Si Ningning put the egg back into Xu Shuhua's palm, "Where did you get the snake egg back from?"

This remark was meant as a joke. Si Ningning had watched the Animal World Channel. Snake eggs were oblong and transparent in color.
