After traveling through ancient times, she became a wild woman

Chapter 656 Woad
Xiao Se spent two days making a set of clothes for A Di.

When A Di was trying on A Di's upper body, A Di couldn't bear to take it off. He jumped up and down in front of Ye Feng, and even jumped in front of Ah Fan and Xiaolongniao: "My, my, Arthur, my .”

Arthur gave it to me, but you didn't, hum.

The little dragon bird chirped unconvincedly in front of Xiao Se, "I want it too, I want it too."

A'zhen slapped it down with contempt in his eyes, "You are not a human being. What kind of clothes are you wearing? It's not hot even if you have feathers. If you wear clothes again, it will kill you."

Xiao Se watched their interaction and laughed to death: "Okay, stop making trouble, come on, A Di, take off your clothes, I will dye them for you, dye them."

In the past few days, A Di has been able to understand the word dyeing. He opened his hands and asked Xiao Se to take off his clothes. He ran away and soon came with wild flowers in his arms: "Flowers, flowers."

Xiao Se was slightly startled: "You mean, you want to dye the color of flowers?"

This is a bit difficult to do. If the flowers are boiled in water, they will turn into dregs. The dyed color is really not good-looking.

A Di pressed the wild flowers onto the clothes Xiao Se was holding, his eyes shining: "Flowers, clothes, flowers."

"He should want you to sew flowers onto his clothes." Ye Feng translated for A Di.

Xiao Se suddenly realized: "You want to sew flowers onto your clothes, and then wear clothes with flowers, right?"

A Di thought for a while and nodded decisively: "Hua Hua Hua."

The night wind picked him up and said, "Go through the leaves and don't hang around here. You still want to wear the flowers, but you can't."

Ah Di went around in a circle and came next to Xiao Se again: "Arthur, flower."

Xiao Se looked at his happy expression, touched his short hair that was no longer prickly, and said with a smile: "Okay, okay."

Night Breeze said in surprise: "Can you really dye flowers?"

Those are flowers, not colors.

"Okay." Xiao Se unfolded the clothes, "There is a kind of dyeing called extension dyeing, which can dye the colors of flowers and leaves. However, I will dye it with other colors first."

If you don't dye it, you'll just wear white clothes, which doesn't look good here.

Xiao Se did not use mugwort or gardenia to dye, but looked for other materials. She originally wanted to find madder, but found woad.

Woad is also called tea blue, and modern times are called isatis root.

Woad is native to China and was an important dye in ancient times. The dyed color is called indigo.

Its roots are used as medicine and are made into Radix Isatis, which can clear away heat and detoxify, cool blood and eliminate spots.

Its leaves are called Daqingye and are used for dyeing, turning them blue.

Crush the big green leaves and pour lime water into them to cause a chemical reaction to produce indigo.

But now that there is no lime, Xiaose can only dye it by boiling it.

Night Breeze was stirring the clay pot, but his eyes were aimed at Xiao Se: "What are you doing?"

"Didn't A Di say that we should print the flowers on it? I have to leave it blank." Xiao Se said as he tied the middle of the top tightly. "Tie it tightly like this so that when it comes to dyeing, it won't be dyed here. Finally, I will put the flowers on Takuran comes up."

Ye Feng's voice was muffled: "Oh!"

The woad leaves in the clay pot are boiled, filtered, and the tied clothes and trousers are thrown away for dyeing.

After dyeing and solidifying, take out the clothes and pants, wash them and dry them.

There is no limewater, so this color cannot be called indigo, it can only be called just blue.

The pants are blue, the short sleeves are white in the middle, and the top and bottom are blue.

A Di looked at his beautiful clothes and started doing somersaults excitedly, jumping and screaming with joy.Ye Feng looked at the clothes hanging to dry and narrowed his eyes slightly: "It looks pretty good."

"That's because you didn't see the finished product. It will look better when the clothes are dried and the flowers are added." Xiao Se, who was preparing flowers and leaves, answered Night Breeze without raising his head.

Ye Feng's eyes shot towards the tumbling A Di: "Don't get your clothes dirty when you wear them, or Arthur won't make clothes for you next time."

Adi, who was rolling, looked at Arthur who was looking at him, got down on all fours, ran to the stream, plunged in, and took a refreshing bath.

Xiao Se's mouth twitched and he looked at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng touched his nose and turned his head: "The sun is so bright!"

Hey, childish ghost.

After the clothes were dry, Xiao Se took off the clothes, spread them out on a flat stone, and placed the selected flowers and leaves in the middle of the fabric on the chest and back.

Then, a round stone is used to hit the front chest fabric, and the pigments on the flowers and leaves placed in the middle will be imprinted on the front and back chest fabric of the clothes. This is called dyeing.

Xiao Se was beating, and Ye Feng, Ah Di, and Ah Di were all watching.

When Ye Feng understood it, he said to Xiao Se, "You're tired. I'll change hands. Don't wait until your hands hurt."

Xiao Se straightened up and waved his hand: "That's fine."

This kind of work is not only meticulous, but also very physically demanding. It would be nice to have someone to take over.

Ye Feng and Xiao Se switched places, and he took the stone and delicately tapped the pattern Arthur had laid out.

Xiao Se and the four people gathered in front of Ye Feng and watched him knock. The scene was extremely harmonious and warm.

After the night wind had beaten all the flowers and leaves, Xiao Se carefully cleaned out the residue of the flowers and leaves, took the clothes to wash and dried them.

There are two small red flowers and one small yellow flower printed on the fabric on the front and back of the top, surrounded by five leaves, which looks particularly beautiful.

When the wind blows, the flowers and leaves seem alive, swaying and dancing in the wind.

Xiao Se turned around happily: "Did you see it? It looks good. Ah Di, does it look good?"

A Di likes to spin in circles the most: "It looks good, Arthur, it looks good."

Arthur, the clothes are nice.

In the midst of the chirping of the little dragon bird, Ah Zhan walked around in circles with it with a slumped face. Hey, it’s really annoying when I grow up.

Ye Feng watched Xiao Se playing with them with a smile, and the smile never fell off his face.

After the clothes were dry, A Di couldn't wait to put them on. He looked at the flowers on his chest and jumped around. He even wanted to roll over when he got excited.

Just as he was turning it out, he remembered what Ye Feng said and immediately put one hand on the ground to support himself up. His feet landed firmly on the ground without soiling the new clothes.

Ye Feng's pupils lit up, he was a good martial artist. After returning to the tribe, he could be given to Chang Sheng to train well.

Xiao Se looked at A Di's joy, and she was also very happy. She stretched out and said, "The clothes are all ready, they are comfortable. Now let's make some fun."

I kept talking about getting some hot stuff, but I never did it. I got clothes and other miscellaneous things first.

He was about to leave here, so Huo Zhezi naturally made preparations. After all, it would be difficult to drill wood to make fire on the road.

"Ye Feng, will you accompany me to the forest to look for fragrant leaves?" Xiao Se twisted his waist, kicked his legs, and moved, "My old arms and legs, oh, I really need to exercise more..."

Suddenly, she thought of a very serious problem that she had ignored.
