My whole family traveled across time with an encyclopedia

Chapter 27 Chilblain Ointment

Ning Changrong broke out in a cold sweat behind his back after hearing this, rejoicing in his heart, and hurriedly cupped his hands in thanks: "Thank you, Brother Zhao, for telling me."

"It's okay, you go home, don't forget about tomorrow. I have to continue to escort people back to the county government."

Only after Zhao Zhao left quickly did Xiayuan Village dare to speak.

"Brother Changrong, why are you so powerful? You almost know me." Ning Xiaoniu's eyes lit up and his face was filled with admiration. His eyes were really opened today.

"My God, Brother Changrong has made a name for himself in the city." Zhang Majiang expressed admiration. This smart person is different. They can't help shaking their legs when they see officials, let alone talk to them. They deal so casually.

Not only are his Evergreen brothers not afraid, they even call them brothers and sisters. Didn't you hear that the servant also called them Changrong brothers?

"Stop, stop!" The more these people said, the more outrageous they became.

"I just invited people to dinner a few times, and I was remembered as a favor. I don't know if I can count on it if something really happens."

"That's amazing too! We usually can't get on with each other when we want to talk."

Everyone talked to each other, as if Ning Changrong had become the light of Xiayuan Village.Along the way, one foot deep and one shallow foot finally returned to Xiayuan Village.

There are too many of them, and there is no bullock cart to pull them all.After going back, I plan to rent the ox cart from the village chief's house, and then borrow a few around.

"Father! You're back! Drink some water." Ning Qingxi waited for Ning Changrong to tie the sheep and came out with hot water.

"My niece is really sensible. How is it? Dad will do what he says, won't this sheep be brought back for you?"

"Yeah! Thank you, Dad! Then we can eat boiled mutton! We should eat hot pot in this winter! It's a pity that there is no chili, so we can barely make do with cornel."

Wang Xiujuan was delighted to see the bleating sheep. There was no grass to feed her at home. Wang Xiujuan brought a cabbage over.

"Girl, it would be nice to be able to buy this sheep. It looks like your father searched for it for so long to find it."

"Oh grandma, I just feel sorry in my heart."

Ning Qingxi also felt that he was asking too much, and smiled sweetly at Ning Changrong: "Father, you have worked hard!"

"What's the hard work? Isn't it right to raise my daughter? Dad will pay attention to it when he goes to West Market in the future. There are many Hu merchants there. I heard that some people have come here before. Maybe you can find peppers."

"Really!? It would be great if I could find it!"

Fang Chunmei was a little surprised, "Mom, what is chili?" She had to find someone from Hu Shang Fan.

"Evergreen brought Xixi home to eat before, but we haven't seen it here."

Fang Chunmei: "..."

Asking is tantamount to asking why her mother-in-law is so perfunctory.

In the evening, I still eat stir-fried sauerkraut. After the family had money, they bought a lot of soybean oil. Ning Qingxi finally had stir-fried vegetables, and the meal was very good.After the family's conditions improved, there was no further division of food at the dinner table. Fang Chunmei fed the child in the house, and Ning's second son went to change her out to eat the meal reserved for her in advance after finishing eating by himself.

After dinner, Ning Qingxi and Wang Xiujuan went to Ning Changrong, "Father, I suddenly remembered that our family might need to make a pot, otherwise we won't be able to eat hot pot."

"You don't need to say that? Dad has already ordered a small pot with the blacksmith in the city. I'll go buy some seasonings tomorrow and bring the pot back to you, otherwise it won't taste good."

"Okay! By the way, this is for you. I see that you have a lot of chilblains on your hands every day when you go out every day. It must be very uncomfortable? I heard that it hurts and itches."

"I found the method of making chilblain ointment in the encyclopedia, and I made this for my grandma a few days ago, and finally made it." Ning Qingxi handed her father a small bamboo box.

Ning Changrong took it, wiped it on his hands, it was smooth, and the cold itching on his hands was relieved a lot, "This thing is good! My daughter is really smart! But why does it smell so nasty?"

Ning Qingxi uses lard for chilblains, so this thing smells a bit coquettish, but it can't stand it being cheap!And it also works.

"Oh, isn't this trying to be cheap? It's made of lard, so it has a bit of a smell, but it's not that big of a smell, right? It's better than having sore and itchy hands." Ning Qingxi looked at her father's hand with distress , Ning Changrong's career has been very successful after Ning Qingxi became sensible in modern times, and his hands are even more pampered, not to mention that they are white and tender, and there are no calluses.

Not to mention the roughness after coming here, and now I have frostbite.

Ning Qingxi couldn't help much, so he tried his best to do some auxiliary work.

"Xixi, this thing you made is pretty good. I just applied it for a while, and now my hands are really not itchy. How about you make more and sell it?"

Ning Qingxi was a little hesitant, "Well, can it be sold with such a strong taste?"

"Your cost is not high, is it?"

Ning Qingxi shook his head, "It's not much, and this lard is not expensive. And you only use a little at a time." The cost is estimated to be less than a penny, and the more you make, the more cost-effective.

"That's good. Let's sell it to the country people. The country people don't mind if yours has any taste, as long as it is useful. The key is that ours is not only useful but also cheap. Do you think people will buy it?"

Ning Qingxi made sense when she heard it, "Then let me try it with my grandma? Let's sell it in the village first."

"Give me a few more later, and I'll sell some to the big guys who are going to build a kang with me. They will definitely want this thing."

"I still have some, I'll give them to you. I'll continue to do it tomorrow."

"Okay, you put it on for me, and I'll take it away tomorrow morning."

In fact, Ning Qingxi just finished this thing today, and Ning Changrong was the second one to use it, and the first one was of course her grandma Wang Xiujuan.

As for her, she basically doesn't need it, and she usually doesn't do anything, and just stays on the kang when she has nothing to do.

Speaking of the heated kang, since the fire pit was built, she has been sleeping in for longer and longer. If she hadn't worried about the negative impact, she would never have gotten out of the kang and bed except for going to the toilet!
When Ning Qingxi went back, she wrapped all the chilblain ointment she made, and took four of them to her second uncle and third uncle's house.

"Oh, is this the chilblain ointment that Sisi made? Sisi is really capable! I'm still thinking about what you and your grandma are doing in the kitchen these days."

Li Dafeng and Fang Chunmei smiled happily and took the things Ning Qingxi handed over.Immediately opened it and wiped it on his hands, Xixi is such a smart kid, I don't know how the eldest brother taught him.They are not at all timid like those girls in the village. They are open-minded and can tinker with many things when they meet people.

"Third Aunt, Second Aunt, I made this stuff with lard, so it has some taste but the effect is good."

"Oh, what's the smell? Can I smell it? Isn't it delicious? It makes me want to hold my hand and take a bite."

Fang Chunmei brought the hand that had touched the chilblain ointment to her nose and sniffed it, "Isn't it smelly? Isn't it very fragrant?" As soon as the chilblain ointment was applied to the back of her hand, it felt much colder and more comfortable.
