Nongmen's Herbal Fragrance: The Space of Buddhist Doctors is Busy with Farming

Chapter 127
The four of them walked for about a quarter of an hour, and came to a house where two pine trees were planted in front of the shop. A huge colorful flag with white characters on a blue background was hung outside the shop, with the words "Jingyuan" written on it, and two lanterns hung symmetrically on the door. The three-storey tea house.

"This teahouse looks so grand." Qin Lan sighed.

"The name is also very unique." Mu Xuefei said looking at the word "Jingyuan" on the eye-catching colorful flag.

"Let's go in, there is a special area for women in the teahouse." Mu Han introduced.

"Women's service area?" Mu Xuefei asked curiously.

"The four of you are welcome." Xiaoer greeted warmly.

The four of them walked into the teahouse, and a stage was set up in the middle of the main hall on the first floor, on which the storyteller was telling stories with mixed emotions and emotions. From time to time, echoes and applause came from the audience. There are simple and atmospheric red and black paintings.

"We want a private room." Mu Han said.

"Okay, please move upstairs." Xiao Er said with a smile.

In the process of going upstairs, I found that there are lifelike carvings of characters, flowers and plants on the stair railings and fences.

Following Xiao Er's guidance, the four went up to the second floor and came to a private room named Moran. Xiao Er opened the door of the private room and said, "It's good for the four of you to stay in this room."

"I don't know what the four guests order?" the waiter asked after the four sat down.

"Have a pot of your shop's signature snow-bubbled plum tea, and four other refreshments." Mu Han said.

"Okay, I'll be here right away." After finishing speaking, Xiao Er retreated respectfully.

"Brother Mu, can't you listen to the storytelling downstairs in the elegant room?" Qin Lan asked itchingly when he heard the laughter coming from downstairs from time to time.

"Yes, there are desks and chairs for listening to books here, just let Xiaoer help us set them up later." Mu Han got up and opened the window and looked downstairs.

"So that's how it is." Qin Lan heard the clear storytelling sound from downstairs and couldn't help getting up and going to the window to listen.

"Shuyu, the two of them are really a good match." Mu Xuefei looked at the two figures standing in front of the window and approached Qin Shuyu in a low voice.

"I didn't see it at all." Qin Shuyu looked at Mu Han's obstructive figure and said coldly.

"It's good if I see it." Mu Xuefei sat up straight after hearing Qin Shuyu's words and muttered softly.

"Four guests, your snow-bubbled plum tea, sugar-steamed short cheese, osmanthus sugar-steamed chestnut cake, Ruyi cake, and auspicious fruit are here. Please use them slowly." After setting up the refreshments, Xiao Er was about to stand up and go back, when he saw him standing by the window. The two people in front said, "Does the guest want to listen to the book? I'll help you set up the table and chairs, which will be more convenient. Please keep the guest away from the window first."

After Mu Han and Qin Lan sat away from the window, Xiao Er moved the tables and chairs from the wall and said, "Do you need me to help you move the refreshments?"

"No, thank you." Mu Han said.

"You are too polite. If you have any orders, you can just pull this rope." Xiao Er retreated respectfully after finishing speaking.

"Sister Lan'er, let's go and listen to the book, cousin and son-in-law, do you want to come together?" Mu Han asked as he poured a cup of tea for the four of them.

"Brother Mu...Okay." Qin Lan lowered her head shyly and said.

"I'm going too, Shuyu, are you going?" Mu Xuefei said, taking a sip of tea from a teacup.

"I'll go too." Qin Shuyu said.

"Then let's go and listen." Mu Han said while holding tea on the table by the window.

"Okay." Qin Lan also helped to carry the refreshments.

"I'm here to help too." Mu Xuefei said as she picked up the teapot.

The table was placed next to the window, and the chairs for the four stood side by side, and they could see the downstairs when they sat down. When the four of them had prepared refreshments and were ready to take their seats, Qin Shuyu pointed to the two seats next to the wall and said, "Brother Mu, the two of us How about sitting here?"

"Okay!" Mu Han said indifferently, even a little happy that Qin Shuyu suddenly became so enthusiastic.

After Qin Shuyu finished speaking, he sat down first, leaving a seat against the wall.

"Lan'er, let's sit down too." Mu Xuefei said with a broken smile looking at Qin Shuyu's childish appearance.

"Okay." Qin Lan sat down next to Mu Xuefei.

Mu Xuefei looked downstairs and saw a carved chair, in front of the chair was a square table, tied with embroidered dragons and phoenixes around the table, on the table were Xingmu, a large bowl, a teapot, and a cup of hot tea .

The storyteller downstairs just finished telling a story, stroked his beard, patted Xingmu and said loudly, "Everyone, I will tell you a brand new story, do you want to hear it?"

"What is Mr. Li?"

"Everyone, if you want to listen, please come back tomorrow." The storyteller said loudly, ignoring the words below.

"I hope I can finish listening before I leave Yangcheng." Mu Han hoped.

"Why don't you bribe the storyteller so that he can finish the story for you alone." Mu Xuefei joked with a smile.

"That's a good idea." Mu Han said with bright eyes.

"Brother Mu, if you come to listen to the book, remember to call me." Qin Lan reminded.

"Okay, sister Lan'er, let me tell you that there are many good stories in the bookstore that I will go to later." Mu Han said happily.

Mu Xuefei glanced at Qin Shuyu quietly, feeling that he could not stop the two of them from being together no matter what.

"Since we've finished listening, why don't we go." Qin Shuyu said out loud.

"Sister-in-law, wait until I eat some cakes before leaving, I'm a bit hungry." After hearing this, Mu Han hurriedly picked up a piece of cake and ate it.

"Don't talk about it, it's okay to talk about it, I'm a little hungry." Qin Lan said, rubbing his stomach.

"Lan'er, why don't you eat a piece of pastry to pad your stomach first, how about we go to eat later and then go to the bookstore?" Mu Xuefei suggested.

"Okay!" Qin Lan said happily.

"Since I'm going to eat, I'll pack up the pastry." Mu Han stopped his hand that was going to continue to take the pastry and said.

"Alright." Mu Xuefei said after she finished speaking and pulled the rope.

"I don't know what orders the guest has?" Xiaoer said respectfully after knocking on the door and entering.

"Check out." Mu Han said.

"Okay, eight taels of silver in total." Xiaoer replied with a smile.

"Here you are." Mu Xuefei took out the money first and handed it to Xiaoer.

"A total of ten taels of silver will be charged to you. I'll give you change later." Xiaoer took the silver and weighed it, then said with a smile.

"Thank you, please pack the pastry for me." Mu Han said.

"That's good." Xiao Er retreated respectfully.

"Here's your change, I'll pack it for you now." Xiao Er handed the money to Mu Xuefei, and took the oiled paper to pack the pastries.

"Please take your pastries." Xiao Er said as she put the wrapped pastries on the table.

"Thank you." Mu Han thanked him.

"Then I won't bother you four." Xiao Er retreated respectfully after finishing speaking.

"Let's go now." Mu Han picked up the pastry and said.

"Okay, cousin, shall we still eat in Shuiyunjian?" Mu Xuefei asked curiously.

"I'll take you to another store." Mu Han said.

"Let's go out first." Qin Shuyu got up and said.

The four of them walked out of the garden under the escort of Xiaoer, and walked for about [-] minutes under the leadership of Mu Han to an ordinary-looking restaurant with the word 'restaurant' simply written on the signboard. .

"Don't look at this restaurant as it looks ordinary, but the braised chestnut chicken and water shield and whitebait soup inside are delicious." Mu Han said.

"Then let's go in quickly." Mu Xuefei said, eager to rest.

After entering the restaurant, the windows inside are bright and clean, and there are four or five tables.

"Grandma Zhang, I want a braised chestnut chicken, water shield and whitebait soup, two bowls of rice, and three steamed buns. You are watching to help us match the two dishes." Mu Han shouted to the kitchen after sitting down.

"Here it is... so it's Mu kid. It's been a long time. I don't know who these are? Then how about I serve you two more sauced meat and sauced duck?" A man in an indigo dress came from the kitchen with a kind face. , old woman with gray temples.

"As Grandma Zhang said, these are my cousin, brother-in-law and my younger sister." Mu Han said with a smile.

"If the three eat well, welcome to come back next time. Boy Mu has always been a frequent visitor to my house." Grandma Zhang said with a smile.

"Looking at my cousin's frequent visits, I know that the food at Grandma's is delicious." Mu Xuefei said with a smile.

"Girl can really talk, okay, I'll let the old man cook for you." Grandma Zhang smiled even more happily.

"Their stewed chestnut chicken and water shield and whitebait soup are both delicious. The braised chestnut chicken is delicious, the gravy is overflowing, the taste is full, and the aftertaste is long; the water shield is smooth and smooth, the whitebait is tender, and the soup tastes even better It's extremely delicious! Like a streamline, it flows from the tip of the tongue to the base of the tongue, slides from the base of the tongue into the throat, and finally falls into the stomach." Mu Han was about to give birth.

"Following my cousin is indeed right." Mu Xuefei said with a beaming smile, "Shu Yu, Lan'er, let's follow quickly."

"Okay." Qin Lan happily replied while tugging on Mu Xuefei's sleeve.

The four walked through the stalls on both sides of the street and the pedestrians coming and going, and came to a shop on the second floor. Mu Han suddenly stopped and said, "We have arrived at Qingyanfang."

"That's it? No wonder you can faintly smell the fragrance." Mu Xuefei felt that it hadn't been long since she left.

"Yes, let's go in quickly." Mu Han urged.

"Miss, sir, please invite the four of you." A light and elegant fragrance came, and the person who caught the eye was a beautiful and intelligent woman in a hibiscus purple dress about Huaxin's age.

Accompanied by a woman in hibiscus and purple, the four of them came to the store. What caught their eyes was the three-sided Duobao Pavilion and the counter opposite the door.

"I don't know what the four of you need. The young lady can recommend it to the four of you. It's good for the young lady to call me Zhiqing." The dignified and beautiful Zhiqing said with a smile.

"Cousin, sister Lan'er, look around first, what do you want to buy? I'll buy some incense first." Mu Han said to the three of them.

"Miss Zhiqing, can you introduce Yinxiang to me?" Mu Han asked.

"Okay, please do your own thing, I will recommend this young master first, and then I will greet you all?" Zhiqing said with a smile.

"It's okay, let's have a look first." Mu Xuefei said indifferently.

"Thank you for your understanding." Zhiqing said after saluting.

"There's no need to be so polite." Mu Xuefei hurriedly replied.

"My lord, I recommend these types to you. The first type is Dingzhou Gongku Yinxiang, which is made of Jianxiang, sandalwood, Linglingxiang, Huoxiang, Gansong, Maoxiang, rhubarb, and pestle;
The second type is Hezhou Gongkuyinxiang, which is made of agarwood, sandalwood, Linglingxiang, raw incense, patchouli leaves, Gansong, grass grass, Cyperus cyperi, ephedra, sweet incense, musk, flame nitrate, Made of frankincense and borneol, it is melodious to burn in a curtain, and it is also wonderful to make seal smoke;

'" Zhiqing took out several boxes and opened them and introduced them in detail.

"Can I try all four?" Mu Han said with a smile.

"Of course, you can wait a moment, I will help you to try out the prefectural public treasury printing incense first." Zhiqing said with a smile, after cleaning her hands beside the counter, she took the incense burner by the counter, took an incense pill into it and lit it.

"I didn't expect that there are so many types of incense?" Mu Xuefei deeply admired the ancient incense culture after listening to Zhiqing's long introduction.

"Yes!" After hearing this, Qin Lan only felt that Zhiqing was extremely powerful.

A flash of surprise flashed in Qin Shuyu's eyes, he didn't expect that Mu Xuefei, who is a lady of everyone, would be so ignorant of Xiang.

After walking around Duobao Pavilion, the three of them returned to the counter to watch Mu Han try the incense.

"Come and help me choose, I don't think there is any difference." Mu Han said happily.

"I wonder what kind of incense my cousin has tried?" Mu Xuefei asked after smelling the cool fragrance.

"I tried the second one, but I don't think there is any difference." Mu Han said with a distressed expression.

"Cousin, you just need to choose a fragrance that makes you feel comfortable." Mu Xuefei said.

"Sister-in-law, I think I have to listen to your suggestion when choosing Yinxiang." Mu Han said with bright eyes after seeing Qin Shuyu standing beside Mu Xuefei.

"I don't know much about these things." Qin Shuyu said expressionlessly.

"But sister-in-law, you seem to understand it very well, you should help me refer to it." Mu Han said.

Mu Xuefei snickered when she heard Mu Han's words, this must be Yangou's world.

"Well, I'm just offering suggestions, but the final choice is still yours." Qin Shuyu said helplessly.

"I see." After hearing this, Mu Han happily pulled Qin Shuyu to the side of the incense burner.

"I think Hezhou Gongku Yinxiang smells better." Qin Shuyu suggested after smelling the fragrance.

Mu Xuefei felt that the fragrance Qin Shuyu chose was very suitable for him, who was ethereal, lonely, far away from the mundane world, kept away from strangers, and free from distracting thoughts.

"Sister-in-law, I think this fragrance is more suitable for you. I'd better choose Ding Gongmei Xiangzhuan Shen Pu." Mu Han said.

"Up to you." Qin Shuyu said indifferently.

"Sister-in-law, do you really want to buy so much?" Qin Lan asked in a low voice, tugging at Mu Xuefei's sleeve.

"Lan'er, don't worry, it can be used up." Mu Xuefei patted Qin Lan's hand and said.

"Okay, sir, this is your total of 50 taels of silver, miss, this is your total of 910 taels of silver, I will give you a change and count as your 900 taels of silver." Zhiqing said with her fingers moving the abacus quickly.
