My Ancient Rural Life Chapter 14

When she woke up in the morning, the two little ones had gotten up earlier than her and had already run outside to wash up.

Shen Ning returned to the room and saw that his sister-in-law had woken up. He ran to the bedside and told Sang Luo happily and shyly that she had dreamed of making money to buy food last night. Sang Luo then realized that she was not the only one who was happy.

She instantly became full of energy, threw off the quilt and got up.

Seeing Sang Luo getting up, Shen Ning turned around and walked over to the stone where the bowl was placed. When he came back, he handed Sang Luo a handful of Imperata roots: "Sister-in-law, here, my second brother and I picked them this morning!"

The ancient version of a simple toothbrush is made from the rhizome of a plant called Imperata cylindrica. After rubbing off the root bark, you can chew and eat it. Because it contains a lot of cellulose, poor people who pay attention to hygiene will use it to chew and clean their teeth and mouth.
