Shi Qingluo was now rolling up her sleeves, teaching her husband and Mrs. Kong how to make mosquito-repellent coils.

She didn’t know that because she collected eels, she would have extra followers in the future.

As for the mosquito-repellent coils, Shi Qingluo didn’t make the plate version in modern times.

Instead, they made the coil one by one, which was more convenient, and people can casually light one at night.

In addition to wormwood, wild chrysanthemum, and fish bone meal, she also needed papers.

Before her husband went to Fucheng, they had already started making paper.

She just dried some of them recently. Although it was not very smooth, it also has a yellowish color and needs continuous improvement.

However, the current khaki paper was enough to be used as a frame for mosquito coils.

This time the paper was made of straw bark, which was rough.

It was mainly used for experiments. After success, it will be made of bamboo after moving to improve whiter and finer paper.

Several people made several bundles of mosquito coils together.

That night, they lit one of the two rooms in the house.

After waking up early the next morning, Shi Qingluo didn’t have any mosquito bites on her body.

In the middle of the night, she didn’t hear mosquitoes anymore, so she had a good night’s sleep.

Xiao Hanzheng also slept well: “This mosquito coil is effective.”

Shi Qinglou laughed, “It just so happens that the batch of sugar beets has already been made into sugar, so let’s recruit some women to make some mosquito coils in the workshop and sell them.”

Xiao Hanzheng changed his pajamas into a robe: “Are you still going to work with Bai Xu?”

Shi Qingluo also got up: “I can sell some to him, but I want to attract more businessmen to come to our village to buy mosquito coils in bulk.”

“It happens that there are a lot of people who come to buy saltpeter recently. We have to maintain a steady stream of people coming and going so that the village will become more and more lively and prosperous in the future.”

“The soy sauce and miso I made before are almost ready. When the shop at the entrance of the village is repaired, I will sell them for wholesale.”

She didn’t want Bai Xu and other businessmen to monopolize all the things she made this time.

She wanted to rely on these to attract many merchants from other places to do wholesale.

She wanted to improve the economy of Nanxi County first.

Xiao Hanzheng was used to some unfamiliar words popping out of his little wife’s mouth from time to time.

She was only like this in front of him, but she was very careful with her words when she went out.

“You can try this, I think your idea is very good.”

“We can also have a chat with Mo Qingling, and together we will revitalize Nanxi County.”

To do this, it would be even better if they have the support of the county magistrate.

Shi Qingluo nodded: “We really should discuss it with Mo Qingling.”

She looked at him with a smile: “I will leave this glorious task to you, Old Xiao.”

She prefers to do practical things, her young husband was more suitable for diplomacy.

Xiao Hanzheng pulled her close: “Okay, I’ll go.”

Then he asked: “To make mosquito-repellent coils, do you have to use women to do the work?”

Shi Qingluo replied: “That’s right, it doesn’t take much effort anyway. When the women in the village earn more money, they can be tougher at home.”

“When they want to buy some food for their children, they don’t have to be scolded by their parents-in-law or sneak around.”

“I want them to live a little bit better. Buy themselves some clothes every year, or even buy rouge, gouache, and accessories.”

She has seen several times, there were mothers-in-law scolding her daughter-in-law in the village.

In ancient times, men were superior to women and women were inferior to men. Women’s social and family status was not high.

Shi Qingluo was not unrealistic, she doesn’t want the so-called equality between men and women in this era.

However, she still wanted to try to improve the living environment of women within her ability.

She felt that no matter in modern times or in ancient times, if she could earn money and have an income, she would not have to look at people’s faces to eat, and she could straighten her back a little.

In modern times, she has seen many examples where the economic foundation determines the status of the family.

Of course, except for those who can only be supported by others.

Although their county was not very poor, it was not a rich county.

Women in many villages wear two or three sets of clothes throughout the year and keep patching them when they got broken.

The same goes for the children, not to mention their shabby clothes. She saw many children in the village running around barefoot.

In the original owner’s memory, people in the village who can wear a pair of cloth shoes in winter were mostly rich people.

Most people wear straw sandals all year round, rain or shine.

She wanted to change these. Even if the change was small, it doesn’t matter, she will start by changing the lives of the people around her. She will do as much as she can.

These words touched Xiao Hanzheng a lot.

His little wife was really special, with such a broad mind.

“Okay, whatever you want to do, I will support you.”

He stretched out his arms to hug Shi Qingluo: “Next year’s imperial examination, I will work hard to be your backing.”

He became more eager to take the imperial examination and become an official.

As his little wife’s business became more and more large, he had to get up quickly so that he could give her his back.

Shi Qingluo put her arms around Xiao Hanzheng’s waist. Smelling the faint fragrance of ink on his body: “That’s natural. Old Xiao, you are my biggest backing.”

Then she pinched her husband’s waist. The elasticity was quite good.

After her husband woke up, he ate well and exercised every day. His body got better and better.

Feeling his little wife’s hand constantly playing tricks on his waist, Xiao Hanzheng suddenly reacted.

He let go of Shi Qingluo in some embarrassment: “I’ll go wash up first.”

Watching Xiao Hanzheng go to wash up with the feeling of running away, Shi Qingluo couldn’t help covering her mouth with her and laughed.

Oh, her husband was so innocent.

After washing up, Shi Qingluo saw that Xiao Hanzheng had already brought Xiao Baili and Xiao Hanyi to practice Tai Chi.

She also walked over to join, with a smile on her face all the time.

During breakfast, Xiao Baili asked curiously: “Sister-in-law, I think you are very happy today!”

Shi Qingluo retracted the curvature of the corners of her lips, “Well, I’m in a good mood today.”

She immediately changed the subject: “Did you get bitten by mosquitoes last night?”

Xiao Baili said with a smile: “No. Sister-in-law, the mosquito coil you made for us is useful.”

Xiao Hanyi also said: “That’s right, I was bitten by mosquitoes every day before, but today I woke up without a mosquito bite.”

He looked at Shi Qingluo with admiration again: “Sister-in-law, you are amazing.”

Shi Qingluo smiled lightly and said: “I’m your sister-in-law, of course, I’m amazing.”

While Xiao Hanzheng drank the porridge, his eyes were full of smiles. As expected, his little wife never knew what modesty was, she was straightforward and cute.

Then Shi Qingluo said to Mrs. Kong: “Mother, I want to recruit a group of women to make mosquito-repellent coils, and I will trouble you to take care of it when the time comes.”

Her mother-in-law was hardworking and restless.

She hoped that the other party can become self-reliant, so she better start cultivating and gaining experience from now on.

If she let her mother-in-law take care of making mosquito coils, she should be able to get a lot of experience.

No need to mention becoming a strong woman or a tigress in the future, but at least, if she encounters that scumbag ex-husband, she can give him a few slaps, or scold those two scumbags with her head up high.

Xiao Hanzheng still doesn’t know that his little wife wanted to train his mother so that she can be so tough in the future… …
