Chapter 65: Chapter 64:

In a blink of an eye, another two months passed, and Qu Qing finally bought

the book about papermaking that Qu Qing had been waiting for for a long time.

The first time he got the book, he began to study how to make paper.

When he opened the first page of the book and saw the words about cutting

tender bamboo and soaking it in water for 100 days, he gasped. I didn't expect

it to take so much time...

He looked at other procedures. After soaking the bamboo, boil it with lime for

eight days and nights, smash it into mud, put it in water and scoop it up with

a bamboo curtain, then peel it off and put it aside, repeat this action, and

then make Form a slump of wet paper, squeeze the moisture at the end, and then

peel off the paper one by one to dry.

Although the process is a bit complicated, it is not incomprehensible, but the

difficulty takes a long time in the world, and there are many places in the

process that seem to require the use of professional tools. It seems that this

matter cannot be solved in a short time. , he had to spend more time to

prepare.

Since it can't be done in a short time, then he simply mobilizes the children

in the class to do this together and learn from practice. There is nothing

better than this.

One day in advance, he instructed the students to bring tools for chopping

bamboo and digging pools.

On the second day, twenty or so people, carrying things in a mighty manner,

went to the bamboo forest near Qu Qing's house.

The first time I came out to take such an outdoor class, even though it was a

place where I played since I was a child, the children still felt very novel.

He first explained that the purpose of today was to learn how to make paper.

Everyone looked at a piece of green bamboo and didn't understand how these

things could be turned into paper, but they still followed the teacher's

instructions obediently.

Some people are responsible for chopping tender bamboo, and some people go to

some places downstream near Quqing to be responsible for digging ponds.

The whole afternoon was spent like this, and when the pillars were finally cut

into pieces and placed in the pond, everyone began to ask when the paper would

come out.

"How can it be so simple, this is just the simplest beginning. After that, it

will be soaked in this way for a hundred days. During this period, I will take

you to prepare other tools that will be used in the papermaking process."

After that, since Mr. Honors did not come to class every afternoon, and Qu

Qing did not always find interesting classes to attend, so he simply took the

students to study how to make paper when there was no arrangement. and collect

the required materials.

For example, where to find quicklime, how to make bamboo curtains for scooping

paper, whether it is necessary to build a special room for papermaking, and

how to make paper-pressing tools.

Whenever an idea or method is discussed, Qu Qing will record it, but at the

end of the discussion, he and the children have found a common big problem,

lack of money.

They can find a way to make some simple things by themselves, but some are

more professional, need to design all special tools, and need a lot of effort,

such as building a house, they have to spend money to hire people, and then

the materials Also spend money.

So Qu Qing had to face this ancient problem, where to make money.

Just when he was worried about this matter, things took a new turn, because

the performance he organized before was famous, which coincided with the

birthday of the county magistrate. Someone below wanted to please him, so he

spent a sum of money to invite Qu. Qing designed several programs.

For the rich, this amount of money is not much, but for Qu Qing it is a huge

sum of money, so he agreed without any hesitation.

After earning the consent of the children's parents, he adapted the last

program and let the students design their own designs. After half a month, the

remuneration was successfully received. Qu Qing used half of the money to buy

a batch of pen and paper for the original use. The children who didn't have

paper and pens distributed paper and pens. Those who had paper and pens in the

past were converted into money and distributed accordingly.

Through this incident, the students not only increased their knowledge, but

also transferred paper and pen money. The parents are very satisfied, but

there is no such thing as blaming him for using the students for profit.

In order to quickly restart the experiment after the failure of the

papermaking experiment, he cut down some bamboo and soaked it in the process.

On the other hand, he began to think about movable type printing. He asked the

pottery master a lot and learned a lot. He borrowed the place of others, made

clay blocks of different clays, carved characters, and then fired them.

During this period of time, he always had a lot of ideas, and he did it when

he thought of it. He was busy almost every day without touching the ground.

Hua Zizhou found that the time he spent with him was drastically reduced. Most

of the time, Qu Qing was so tired that he fell asleep. He didn't have time to

talk to someone, and Hua Zizhou wondered if he had become light on himself.

Since the scholar Yu Hui took over half of his teaching time, Qu Qing also

shared one-third of his salary. Whenever he had time, he would be bored and

not know what to study.

Hua Zizhou had to go to class and couldn't follow him. The husband and wife

got together less often, and Hua Zizhou's mother also began to urge the

child's problems. Only then did Hua Zizhou start to pay attention to this

problem.

When he learned more, he found out that Qu Qing was actually contraceptive. He

had no intention of wanting to conceive a child at all. Hua Zizhou did not

understand why Qu Qing did this. He wanted to ask several times, but he

couldn't find it. to the right opportunity to speak.

The final exam came as scheduled, and the busy farming season for harvesting

came. Before the exam, Hua Zizhou asked whether it would be counted if he

promised him a wish after the first exam.

Only then did Qu Qing remember this matter, and replied, "Of course it

counts."

Qu Qing thought that he probably had something he wanted, so he was busier

during this time. He didn't want his brother to ask for something from him,

but he couldn't get it because he was poor.

After this period of exploration and unremitting efforts, he has found

suitable materials for movable type printing, and now he has created a

thousand commonly used characters. It is also enough to cover the words that

most books will use, and he is going to take this opportunity to try printing.

He has long understood what books are the most scarce on the market, and he

has already bought the books he needs.

The tools are complete and ready to be used. There is nothing to think about.

He immediately took the most popular book that the bookstore owner said and

started printing. Most of the students' papers are kept here, so he can use a

lot of paper.

He tried to start printing twenty copies of each type of book. Compared with

copying books, it was too simple. It was a little troublesome to find the

words that needed to be used. Go for a remake, but overall it's a no-brainer.

At the same time, the exam is also going on. Hua Zizhou also seems to be

working very hard. He has to study in the school, and he has to take care of

the inside and outside at home. He feels that he doesn't have much time to

spend with Qu Qing. He wants to change it, so... Anyway, This time he has to

take the first place in the exam.

This time, I took the math and Chinese exams at the end of the semester. After

the exam, I took a vacation. The results came out three days later. Hua Zizhou

was watching the changes. When the whole class was ranked, he was suddenly

depressed.

He is not the first, but the second, and the first is Zhao Xuan'er.

He didn't do the big things he said before, and for a while he felt ashamed

and lost.

Seeing how sad he was, Qu Qing went up to comfort him in a funny way: "It's

just a cold score, and it doesn't mean anything. Seeing how sad you are, what

do you want? Your husband doesn't agree with you. But you still have a

husband."

When Qu Qing walked in, he found that he was still crying. He was so

distressed that he didn't care that someone might see him outside. He hugged

and coaxed him. When he touched his head, Qu Qing suddenly realized Turns out

his hair was already shoulder length.

"Am I stupid..." Hua Zizhou felt very sad, Zhao Xuan'er was five or six years

younger than him, but he learned better than himself, and he worked very hard.

"You're not stupid. I used to call you a pet name to tease you. I said that

because I thought you were cute. You are actually smart in my mind." Qu Qing

is no stranger to coaxing people, even if he Now he rarely opens his mouth to

coax people, but once he wants to coax someone, the effect is unparalleled.

After some comfort, Hua Zizhou's mood was much better. Seeing this, Qu Qing

asked him what he wanted if he got the first place in the test.

Hua Zizhou hesitated for a long time before saying that he didn't want to read

anymore. Qu Qing was very surprised, because he usually seemed to like books,

he was very hardworking, and he was very serious in the school, so he couldn't

tell that he didn't like reading at all.

"I..." Hua Zizhou's eyes dodged, "I told you not to be angry... Actually, I

don't like reading very much, it's too boring, I just like to get along with

you, but you've been in school less recently, so I also I don't want to go."

"If you don't want to go, don't go." Qu Qing was very straightforward, and he

was not angry at all, nor did he look disappointed, contempt, etc.

Hua Zizhou was very surprised: "Don't you think I'm not at all good at it?"

"Why do you think so? In fact, the purpose of letting you study and learn some

knowledge has been achieved. Now it's just right for you to come home. I'm

going to do one thing by myself, and I need a literacy assistant. I don't know

if you are willing to help. Me? But is this also a disguised study?"

"Can I help too, of course I do! Can I be with you every day?"

Qu Qing was stunned for a while, then remembered that he hadn't been with him

for a long time, and rubbed his hair with a chuckle: "Of course, it's my fault

for neglecting you some time ago, we'll have a day off together tomorrow. ,

will you take you out for a picnic?"

Hua Zizhou's eyes lit up and nodded hastily.

In the morning, I slept together until I woke up naturally, got up and ate

breakfast slowly, and then prepared the ingredients for the afternoon picnic

and barbecue, Qu Qing looked at Hua Zizhou, suddenly became interested, and

said: "Zizhou, come here, I will put on your makeup. "

The cat was bored waiting by the side, so he went straight to Jiang Zhu, and

the two adults called him when they were ready.

Qu Qing waved his hand and let him go to play, and at the same time, he found

a new shirt with great interest to put on for him.

Hua Zizhou looked up at Qu Qing, and found that he really liked the way Qu

Qing looked when he put on makeup. The sincere love and admiration in Qu

Qing's eyes always made him feel joy in his heart.

In the last step, Qu Qing gently lifted his chin, smeared him with mouth

grease, and when his fingertips smeared lightly on his lips, when he looked

up, he saw the light in his eyes, which was looking at him madly, gentle as

water, Stay focused.

Qu Qing also looked at him, looked at him, kissed him unknowingly, closed the

door after kissing and hugged him onto the bed.

Tossing and grinding, lingering sorrow.

In the end, most of the mouth fat was eaten by Qu Qing. Afterwards, he

concluded that although it was quite exciting to come here once, but the mouth

fat here does not know whether it is poisonous or not after eating it. .

But maybe it's because he's been less close recently, and his family Zizhou is

too enthusiastic this time, so that he doesn't have time to think about

contraception.

After playing for a long time, the cat came back and found that the outdoor

barbecue that the two adults had promised was not ready at all, and the two

were still changing clothes!

In the end, the outdoor barbecue turned into a yard barbecue, and by the way,

the Jiang Orion family next door was also called over, so we spent a happy day

in the case of the kitten.

Qu Qing glanced at Hua Zizhou, whose cheeks were flushed, and affirmed again:

Well, it is indeed quite pleasant.

The author has something to say: super super thank you for your input~~ The

author will give you a backflip to compare your heart!

By the way, I would like to ask the author to collect ducks. It would be

better if you can collect one in advance.
