  Chapter 11 Mosquito coil with wormwood

  Grandma Liu and the others were watching TV when there was a knock on the door.

  Seeing the bag in Xiao Yijing's hand, they were all very surprised, "It was done so quickly?"

   "It's still a semi-finished product." Xiao Yijing smiled, "I just finished processing Ai Ye, and you need to make it by hand later."

"ah?"

  Xiao Yijing put the bag on the table, and took out some processed Chen Ai from it, "Grandma, do you have a mobile phone at home?"

   "No. We don't use a wall breaker." The old lady shook her head.

   "Then it can only be done by hand. Is there a washboard?"

   "No!" Chen Abo immediately denied with a loud voice.

  His voice was too loud, Xiao Yijing couldn't help but look at him more, a little confused.

   Only Grandma Liu glared at him.

  Xiao Yijing didn't care about the eyebrows and eyes of the couple, looked around the room, pointed to a plastic basket and said, "Can this be used?"

"sure."

  Xiao Yijing took the basket, turned the basket upside down, then grabbed a handful of mugwort leaves, and started rubbing the back of the basket.

   Soon, the moxa came down one after another, and the impurities also fell down.

   "Just do this, rub out the moxa." Xiao Yijing pointed to the basket and Ai Ye.

   "It's easy!" Chen Abo took the basket directly, "Let me do it!"

  Xiao Yijing gave up her seat and asked the old lady, "Is there any harder paper?"

"have."

   Soon, the old lady brought over what Xiao Yijing asked for.

  Xiao Yijing rolled the paper shell into a hollow triangular cone, pasted it with tape, and found a chopstick.

  The old man has rubbed out a lot of moxa, which is very delicate.

  Xiao Yijing put the chopsticks in the middle of the vertebral body, and then began to stuff moxa into it.

  After stuffing them in a little bit, she squeezed them tightly.

   She didn't stop until the wormwood leaves couldn't squeeze in, took out the chopsticks, and poured out the wormwood inside, which was already a triangular pile.

   "It's done? Is it that simple?" Chen Abo was surprised.

   "Yes, it's not difficult. This is just one of the production methods, and it can also be combined with other things to make incense sticks and roll incense." Xiao Yijing nodded, and then asked: "Is there a lighter?"

"have."

  He took the lighter and lit the wormwood pile.

   Soon, a faint scent of green grass wafted out.

   "It's very fragrant, but not pungent!" Grandma Liu was very happy, "It's much better than those mosquito-repellent incense!"

  Xiao Yijing smiled and said: "Yes, this is made of pure wormwood, no other chemicals are added, and the taste is mild and not irritating."

   "This tastes good, I like it!" Even the old man was very happy, "I can't stand the strong taste, this taste is just right!"

   "And ah, this mugwort is very effective in repelling mosquitoes, and it can also help you sleep. Oh yes, these mugwort roots can be used to soak your feet, which is very good for your body!"

   "Then you have to try it!" The two were very happy.

   "You can deal with the rest, you should be able to do it?"

   "Of course! It's so simple!" Chen Abo patted his chest, "We can just do it when we watch TV dramas!"

   "You can also teach others how to make it, which will be much faster." Xiao Yijing said.

   "Okay, we will deal with it. You go back first, it's getting dark. Close the doors and windows when you go back!" the old lady urged.

  Even though she knew that Xiao Yijing had high strength, she still couldn't help but care about it.

   "Okay, I know." Xiao Yijing nodded, "Then I'll go back first."

   "Go back, go back."

  The old lady sent her downstairs, watched her leave with a flashlight, and then went upstairs.

  Upstairs, she knocked on her slightly sore legs, knocked on the door next to her, and shouted upstairs again: "Xiaojing's wormwood is here, come down quickly!"

"good!"

  As far as the second and third floors are concerned, there was a quick response from above.

   Soon, everyone gathered at Grandma Liu's house.

   "Yo, it's quite fragrant!"

  As soon as they entered the door, the old men and women sniffled their noses with joy on their faces, "It smells like wormwood! Don't rush!"

   "Yes, this tastes good! It doesn't irritate the nose, but makes people feel relaxed."

  An old man walked up to the table and grabbed Ai Ye, "Hey, this color is good!"

  He put the mugwort leaf in front of his nose and smelled it, his eyes lit up immediately, "This smells good too! Excellent Chen Ai!"

  He has a friend who is a traditional Chinese medicine doctor, so he also has a little research on Ai Ye.

   Before, his friend sent him some 3-year Chen AI, but it doesn’t look as good as this one! The taste is a bit different.

   Sure enough, Xiao Yijing was right, this is really her secret recipe!

   If this secret recipe is sold, I don’t know how much I can earn!

   In just one hour, it saves years of effort!

  If his friends know that there is such a good Ai Ye here, they will definitely rush over!

   "It seems that there are not many mosquitoes in the room!"

  An old lady starts looking for mosquitoes in her room.

   "It has been burning for a while, it seems that there are no mosquitoes!"

   I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, or whether the mugwort leaf is really effective, and there are no mosquitos in the room.

   Chen Abo also looked around, and even ran to the place where mosquitoes are most likely to appear, "Hey! The mosquitoes really ran away!"

   "So effective! Then we can use it!"

   "How to do this?"

   Soon, under the guidance of Grandma Liu and his wife, several people began to make moxa piles.

   It's not difficult. They watched TV while chatting, and the movements of their hands didn't stop.

   No, many small piles of wormwood soon appeared on the table.

   "I'll send it to someone else."

   "I'll go with you. By the way, Xiao Jing said that these extra impurities can be used to boil water to soak your feet, which is good for your health."

   "Okay, don't waste it!"

  Everyone took the treated wormwood and piled it out, and quickly distributed it to other owners.

  After getting the wormwood piles and grass stalks, some used them directly, while others left them because they were using mosquito coils.

  Some people started to boil water to soak their feet, and some were already soaking their feet, so they waited to use them later.

  No matter what, the things were sent out, and they went back.

  Back home, Grandma Liu also started to boil water to soak her feet.

  After the mugwort leaves were boiled in water, a faint fragrance of green grass filled the room.

   After the water cooled down a bit, Grandma Liu put her feet in the bucket, and let out a long breath, "Comfortable!"

   Chen Abo soaked his feet next to him, with a relaxed expression.

   After soaking for ten minutes, they felt hotter and hotter, and they were sweating!

   "I'm sweating, how about you?" Uncle Chen looked at his wife.

   "I'm sweating too!" The old lady was very surprised, "Obviously the water is getting colder and colder, but it feels like there is heat in my body!"

   "I think so too!" The old man was also very happy, "It feels so comfortable!"

  When they get older, they always feel that the yang energy is not enough, and they have not experienced such things as soaking their feet and sweating for a long time.

   Didn't expect these wormwood stems to make them so comfortable!

  The next morning, when the rooster crowed outside, the couple woke up and immediately looked happy.

  I slept really well last night!
