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

Chapter 140
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 plum blossom tea made with snow, short cheese steamed with sugar, chestnut cake steamed with sweet-scented osmanthus, ruyi cake, and auspicious fruit are here. Please use them slowly." The two people in front said, "Does the guest want to listen to the book? I'll help you set up the tables 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, 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?"

"Speak up, speak up."

"Everyone, please be quiet. Spring is full of flowers and beautiful women are courageous, and the moon is dark and the wind is strong. A man's heart is high. You can judge the shallowness and depth of the world with only a three-inch tongue." With a slap, Xingmu slapped and said loudly, waiting for the audience to concentrate On himself, he opened his mouth and said leisurely, "It is said that there is a Yuanwai in this city, whose surname is Wan, and his name is Wan Yuanwai. This Yuanwai, ranked third, is called Wansan Guanren..."

"This is too pitiful!" Qin Lan said sadly following the ups and downs of the storyline, intoxicated in the world told by the storyteller.

"Wan Yuanwai is too hateful." Mu Han said angrily, patting the table.

Mu Xuefei couldn't understand the angry and sad two people at all. For her, this kind of old-fashioned story couldn't arouse her emotions at all. Thinking about it, she was a little curious about Qin Shuyu's opinion, so she turned her head and stared at Qin Shuyu carefully. .

"Xuefei, what's the matter?" Qin Shuyu couldn't ignore Mu Xuefei's staring eyes at him, and asked suspiciously.

"It's okay, I just want to hear your opinion after hearing this story?" Mu Xuefei said a little embarrassed after being discovered by Qin Shuyu.

"I haven't finished listening, so I don't want to make more comments." Qin Shuyu said.

"Yes, maybe there will be a turning point." Mu Xuefei thought for a while and said.

Then he looked around the private room a little bored, finally set his sights on the pastry, picked a piece of beautiful and delicate pastry, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

"Hmm...sweet but not greasy, with a lingering fragrance in the mouth." After eating one piece, Mu Xuefei turned her attention to other pastries.

After tasting all four kinds of pastries, Mu Xuefei felt that she still liked the steamed chestnut cake with sweet-scented osmanthus flower the most.

"Shuyu, do you want to try these pastries too?" Mu Xuefei put the steamed chestnut cake with sweet-scented osmanthus sugar in front of Qin Shuyu's eyes.

"Okay, I forgot to eat pastries while I was so busy listening to the book." Qin Lan picked up a piece and ate it. "It's delicious."

"Yes, I think it's delicious too." Mu Xuefei agreed.

"Foretell what will happen next, please listen to the next chapter to break it down." The storyteller patted Xingmu yin and yang and said frustratingly.

"Wait a little longer."

"Mr. Li is talking about something."

"That's right, I just heard the critical moment."

"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.

"Cousin, stop talking." Mu Xuefei felt even hungrier.

I feel that there are a lot of things that I need to bring, but I don’t know which ones to bring. I don’t know the must-have list for going out in this era.

"Shuyu, can I see what you have brought?" Mu Xuefei looked up at Qin Shuyu's direction and found that he had finished packing, so she hurried closer to see what was packed in his luggage?

Mu Xuefei came to the dowry box and opened the clothes box. Looking at the dazzling array of clothes inside, she chose four sets of clothes with difficulty, and then went to the jewelry box to choose jewelry. What she wears these days is a hosta, which is simple and convenient , Of course, you have to choose carefully when you go out.

During the few days when Mu Xuefei came here, she was always grateful. Fortunately, she liked Hanfu and studied Hanfu culture before wearing it.Otherwise, if you don't even know how to pull your hair when you come here, you will be desperate!

"Okay." Qin Lan looked at it carefully for a while and leaned into Mu Xuefei's ear and whispered softly, "Sister-in-law, why didn't you prepare for menstruation?"

It took Mu Xuefei a while to realize that Qin Lan was talking about the aunt's towel. She really forgot, but what was it used in ancient times?Thinking back to what the original owner used for menstruation, it seems to be a menstrual belt.

While sighing, Mu Xuefei found out the menstrual belt prepared by the original owner, and looked at the ancient version of the aunt's towel. She was a little thankful that the original owner's family conditions were good, and the cotton inside was not plant ash, and it was disposable. Even so, she still missed modern times. All kinds of aunt's towels are really back to before liberation overnight.

Mu Xuefei took it out and put it next to her clothes and thanked Qin Lan, "Thanks for reminding me, Lan'er, otherwise it would be terrible."

"What's so bad?" Qin Shuyu looked at the two people who were ignoring him, and finally found a topic.

"It's nothing, this was a topic we girls had before, you can do your work!" Mu Xuefei waved her hands and said.

"Okay!" Qin Shuyu said helplessly, looking at Mu Xuefei as if you were disturbing us.

"Sister-in-law, you're welcome." Qin Lan hurriedly replied.

"Lan'er, can you help me see if there are still some missing?" Mu Xuefei thought about picking a gift for Qin Lan later as a thank you.

"Okay, sister-in-law, I feel like I don't have any more." Qin Lan seemed to have everything she needed.

"Really? I feel like I'm missing something? Ah? I forgot shoes, handkerchief, and toiletries. I really feel like I'm not prepared for anything." Mu Xuefei exclaimed, and hurriedly searched for the items she thought of.

Qin Lan couldn't help being dumbfounded and thought that her sister-in-law was from a wealthy family. She thought it was enough to prepare clothes, but she didn't expect that there were so many things to prepare. It seemed that she was not as thoughtful as her sister-in-law, and she still had to learn from her.

Mu Xuefei, who was looking for things, didn't know that Qin Lan had strengthened her belief in learning from her. For Mu Xuefei, these were the basic needs of modern travel, but they also combined the memory of the original owner.

"Wow! Well, I'm finally ready, it's not easy to go out!" Mu Xuefei sighed as she straightened her waist and wiped her sweat.

"Sister-in-law, don't you think there are too many things?" Qin Lan was speechless, no wonder sister-in-law was so tired, and she was also tired seeing the three big burdens.

"Are there many? Are they daily necessities?" Mu Xuefei asked doubtfully.

"Sister-in-law..." Qin Lan didn't know what to say, "I'm going back to pack my luggage."

"Go! Lan'er, I'll help you after a while. I have experience." Mu Xuefei said confidently.

"Okay, don't worry, sister-in-law, come back after you have a rest." Qin Lan turned around and left after speaking.

"Lan'er, you're so eager!" Mu Xuefei exclaimed.
