The wife of Huangdi, the legendary ancestor of China, invented the method of raising silkworms and reeling silk, which made people bid farewell to barbaric primitive clothes and entered the civilized era. In the Historical Records and other ancient books, there are records about Lei Zu's sericulture and reeling.
Reeling is an important link in the process of silk making, that is, extracting silk from cocoon. This process requires water, usually boiling water, to soften the silk in the cocoon, and then separate the silk from the cocoon manually or mechanically.

People use the characteristics of silk to develop many new products, which brings a lot of convenience to human production and life.
