Chapter 1152 - Making Paper (2) (1/2)
Parker quietly followed behind her. The leopard cubs also ran over excitedly, but they stopped in their footsteps after Parker turned and threw them a glare.
“You guys go back and watch over An’an. Call us after she has woken up.” After giving them work, Parker ran off irresponsibly, leaving the leopard cubs grieving and moaning in the cold wind.
Bai Qingqing only noticed that Parker had followed her after she returned to the kitchen. She threw him a glare, but was anxious about the contents in the pan and thus didn’t say anything as she placed the wooden board on the content in the pan.
“Thankfully, it hasn’t fully dried and can still be molded,” said Bai Qingqing, sensing the movements under the wooden board.
Hearing that, Muir heaved a slight sigh of relief, then continued to watch over the flames.
The fire under the stove kept on flickering, looking like it was on the verge of extinguishing. Feeling anxious about having nothing to do, Parker immediately said in disdain, “Do you know how to tend to the fire? It’s easy to keep it small! Let me do it!”
Muir frowned, and a dark gleam flashed in his eyes. This damned leopard.
Parker ran off after saying that, bringing back a pile of dried grass very quickly. He then squeezed his way into the small gap between Bai Qingqing and Muir.
Muir threw him a cold glance, and Parker returned it. When Bai Qingqing saw that they were going to erupt soon, she quickly moved to the side and said, “That’s true, the fire will be gentler when using grass. It’ll also be even. Let’s burn grass, then.”
“En.” Muir’s voice was calm, hiding his feeling of defeat.
Parker was changed in to control the fire, and it became more even. Moreover, he wasn’t anxious at all, unlike how careful Muir was. This caused Bai Qingqing to believe in him even more and also made Muir even more dejected.
White smoke came out from the sides of the wooden board. Bai Qingqing took a whiff. There wasn’t any charred smell. She then lifted the board and saw that the pulp had already coagulated into a thin piece.
This thickness was only considered thin compared to a pancake, but it still wasn’t comparable to paper. It was clearly an exercise book.
Bai Qingqing heaved a sigh of relief after seeing this change. It looked pretty decent.
