The Life Through Books of the Salted Fish Family

Chapter 245: wait a few days

  Chapter 245 Waiting for a few days

  Yan Yu has a handle, and the movement of making pulp is smoother.

  Scrape from the top and bottom, the pulp can basically cover the entire bamboo curtain.

  She removed the thin wooden strips on both sides, leaving a neat port on the edge, and quickly printed it on the stone slab, with gentle and soothing movements, lowered the bamboo curtain from one side, and spread it to the other side.

  The whole bamboo curtain is pasted on the stone slab.

  Carefully uncover a little bit, and the pulp is separated from the bamboo curtain.

  Yan Yu held her breath and uncovered in slow motion.

  The pulp was left on the slate, and it fit perfectly without any flaws.

  Yan's second child smiled so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes, and Li Xuemei also curled the corners of his mouth.

  Qi Wu was shocked by everything, this...is...paper?

   With a relatively perfect success, Yan Yu took advantage of the victory to pursue.

  The bamboo curtain danced flexibly in her hands.

   Layers of pulp are stacked together, and the edges are a little uneven, which is due to unskilledness and lack of alignment.

  There is not a lot of discarded paper in their house. They put it in their pockets and threw it into the river, washing it day and night, and inevitably took some away. The pulp is limited, and the color is much lighter than before.

   Based on the principle of not wasting, Yan Yu scooped up all of them as much as possible.

   When she finally stopped, Yan Lao Er turned his head, staring so intently that his neck became stiff.

   "After that, the paper is pressed and the water comes out." Yan Yu's last curtain is still on top.

  In order to press more evenly, she didn't use her hands, but took the wooden board of her home for kneading dough. After placing it vertically, press it hard! !

   Streams of water flowed out from all directions.

  Yan Yu withdrew her strength.

   After thinking about it, I came again.

   This time there was very little water.

  Estimated that it was about the same, took away the wooden boards, and Yan Yu looked at their changes.

   It was just pulp, but now it looks like wet paper.

  The next step is to peel off the paper.

  There are only four simple characters on the bamboo slips——Gently lift slowly.

  Yan Yu felt that if she uncovered it now, it would be very difficult to walk the distance to the fire wall with it, so it is better to move them closer and peel off one by one.

  She was just about to move when she remembered that Uncle Qi was still here.

   "Uncle Qi, can you help me move this slab over there?" She pointed in the direction of the fire wall.

  Qi Wu nodded with a solemn expression.

   He stretched out his arms, squatted down in a lunge, and lifted up the stone slabs on which the stack of papers were placed, always maintaining a stationary level and moving over at a constant speed.

  Yan Yu: …

   Don't be so careful.

  But it’s the first time to do it, and all the experience is accumulating, and she will know next time that the previous process should be closer to the firewall to save the effort of moving.

  Master Lu's work is very meticulous, and the walls are very flat. After Yan Yu plans to make paper, she will also pick them when they build fire walls. Right now, every fire wall in her house should meet the standard for stickers.

  Picking up one side with her little finger, she began to slowly peel off the paper.

  The pulp of the first piece of paper was a little thin. No matter how careful she was, she still tore it and broke it in the middle.

  Yan Yu pursed her lips and posted the half on the wall.

   Don't waste it, half a sheet can also be used.

  She had to peel it off again from the other end. After peeling it off, there was a distorted gap between the two halves, and they looked at each other.

  Li Xuemei took out a homemade brush and brushed it lightly, trying to make every part of the paper fit the fire wall perfectly.

  Yan Yu was not in a hurry to reveal the second one, and watched her mother brush the paper.

  The hair brush is made from her father’s pony tail, which is cut off about two inches long, and directly tied together with strands of thread to form a round brush with two sides.

  One side has longer fur and the other side has shorter hair.

  The fire wall is pre-fired, the temperature is controlled, and the temperature is moderate.

  As soon as the paper was placed on the wall, there were gradually changes visible to the naked eye.

  Moisture is evaporating and the paper is drying.

   This change is undoubtedly welcome.

  Yan Yu slowly laughed.

   Enthusiastically peeled off the remaining paper little by little, and pasted it on the wall.

  The back paper was peeled off very smoothly, with almost no damage.

  The place Yan Yu could reach on the fire wall was covered with plasters, and Yan’s second child joined the ranks of helpers. Although he was not very tall, at least he was taller than his daughter.

  At the end, Qi Wu also helped.

  He didn't want to, but who told him to be the tallest here.

  When the last piece of paper is pasted on the fire wall.

  Yan Yu spontaneously felt a strong sense of accomplishment.

  With her little hands behind her back, she carefully looked at the paper she made from left to right and right to left.

   Slowly discovered the problem.

  The paper is gradually drying and has a general appearance.

  The most suitable thickness of the pulp is not the appearance of thick covering the entire bamboo curtain at the beginning, but when the pulp is slightly lighter in the middle and late stages.

  This level of paper is closest to the paper he uses at home.

  Yan Yu likes the thickness of the middle and front section, which is closer to modern paper. It should be better to write with charcoal pen, so there is no need to worry about cutting the paper too hard.

  The sheets with the thickest pulp can be used as the original leather.

   Thin ones, hehehe!

   They can finally produce their own paper, and they no longer have to worry about running out of roll paper, and face the entanglement of whether to use bamboo chips again.

  According to the bamboo slips, the step of the firewall is called baking paper.

  The time for baking paper should not be too long, otherwise it will easily wrinkle and become brittle.

  The baked paper has to be placed on a paper rack to ventilate for a few days.

  Put up a few poles, and a simple shelf will be ready in no time.

  They did not peel off the paper in the order of the stickers, but took the paper off in order from thin to thick, and put them on the shelf one by one.

   "Do you still need to wait? I think it can be used now." Yan Laoer touched the thin sheets.

   "Wait a little longer, Dad, don't be in a hurry for a few days." It is rare for Yan Yu to be impatient.

   This is her painstaking effort, and each sheet is copied out of paper with her two small arms holding up a bamboo curtain.

   Who knows who did it, my arms are sore, okay?

  Nurse Rong happened to come over to greet them for dinner.

  Qi Wuxiang had a fire behind his ass, and ran away in a hurry.

  Yan Laoer was not hungry after eating late last time, so he said that he didn't have lunch, thought about it, and followed Qi Wu to his house.

   "Second Brother Yan, my meal is ready." Qi Wu said seriously.

  Yan’s second child: …

  I'm not here to arrest you and bring you back to my house for dinner, don't be afraid.

  Master Lu took over the job of building the Qi family's house, and after obtaining the consent of Yan's second son, he sent his nephew over to repair the part built by Qi Da and the others.

  The three brothers spared no effort to build their house. The foundation was solid, but the leveling was a bit poor and not level.

   It has to be leveled first, and then the bricks can be laid up later.

   "I'll come and see if there's anything I can do to help."

  Actually, Yan Lao Er wanted to make a good plan for the Qi family.

  For example, the cellar should be as big as it can be, and it should be dug in two if it can’t.

  Qi Wu's carpentry skills are the only ones in their village for Scorpion Baba, so it's best to give him a workshop and enjoy the "single favorite" treatment of the whole village.

  Ahem, mainly because it’s too cold in winter and I can’t work in the yard. I have a house with a fire wall, so it would be nice for Maodong to beat wood at home.

  Rather than buying furniture outside, Yan Laoer would rather let his brother earn money from his family.

   Don't take advantage of outsiders.

   Okay, we have paper~

   Paper is really a good thing for various purposes, thin or thick~~

   Before 0 o'clock in the next update~
