Beloved Concubine

Chen Xiao was bored all day and wanted to find something to do besides painting, so he readily agreed.

It just so happened that she was also hungry.Although there are many snacks in the space, she cannot eat them openly.

What can I do?There should be melon seeds, five-spice melon seeds; she wants to eat brown sugar twists and beef jerky.It's not easy to get beef here, so let's make pork jerky... Chen Xiao discussed with Fang Yu what to make, and Fang Yu was hungry after hearing it.

"Let's go out and buy materials!" Chen Xiaoyue was eager to try and wanted to do it now.To be honest, except for the brown sugar twist, she has never made it herself, she just knows how to make it.

"Open the list and ask the steward to buy it," Fang Yu said.

Chen Xiao is right when he thinks about it, the food is made for everyone to eat, and the public should pay the money.

So she made a list: ten catties of sunflower seeds, ten catties of wheat flour, ten catties of pork hind legs, four catties of sesame oil, four catties of brown sugar, and four catties of salt.

Fang Yu saw that the only seasonings on the list were salt and brown sugar, and asked, "What about the other seasonings?"

"We'll buy other seasonings ourselves." Chen Xiao smiled slyly.

Fang Yu roughly understood what she meant. The other seasonings were either not available in this world, or she wanted to keep the recipe.

Fang Yu handed the list to the steward, saying that it was to make snacks for everyone and asked him to purchase according to the order.Then go out with Chen Xiao to buy other seasonings.

The seasonings that Chen Xiao is going to make are actually very simple, some kitchens have them.It's just the "five spices" of five-spice melon seeds, which need to be bought at the pharmacy.

Fang Yu was familiar with going to the medicine hall, so he brought Chen Xiao to Huichun Hall.

As soon as he entered the door, the clerk of the medicine hall greeted him warmly: "Mr. Fang, you are here!"

"En." Fang Yu nodded in response, and said, "Let's get some medicine."

"Oh, it seems that the medicine on your side hasn't been grinded yet. I'll go and have a look at the back." The man thought he was here to get the medicine used in the official post.

"No, we're not taking that. We're taking something else."

"Oh, what medicine do you need?"

Chen Xiaodao: "Star anise, cinnamon, and cumin, each twenty coins."

"Is twenty money enough?" Fang Yu tilted his head and asked Chen Xiao.

"That's thirty dollars."

"One catty each, take more."

Chen Xiao wanted to roll his eyes.In the name of the official station, all the medicines are taken here to keep accounts, and finally the yamen will come to settle the bills, so he can do whatever he can!

Fang Yu was serious: "This is to treat the grandson's illness."

Cure gluttony!Chen Xiao thought about it and asked the buddy, "Is there any pepper?"

"Have."

"Then add peppercorns." Chen Xiao originally planned to buy peppercorns elsewhere, because peppercorns in medicine halls are more expensive.

"One catty each." Fang Yu added to the man.

"Okay, you two wait a moment." The man went to weigh the medicine.

Fang Yu asked Chen Xiao: "The five spices in the 'five spices', there are only four flavors here, what is the other flavor?"

"Fragrant leaves. They don't exist here." Chen Xiao went to the pharmacy when he was making lo mei in An County before, and they didn't know what kind of leaves were fragrant leaves.She also looked for it in the market, but nothing.

However, there are in her space.She not only has dried fragrant leaves, but also fragrant leaf trees planted as landscapes.

Fragrant leaf tree, Lauraceae evergreen shrub, small tree plant.In addition to being a spice, it is also a landscape tree species in modern times.In landscaping, it is generally used as a middle-level canopy, resistant to pruning, and can be used as a hedge wall or a median strip in the middle of the road.

Say something off topic.Many modern green plants are actually somewhat famous, but people usually don't pay attention to them.If you look carefully, you will find that many of them are spice plants.

"Fragrant leaves..." Fang Yu thought: "What kind of leaves are those?"

Chen Xiao chuckled: "You don't need to look for it, I have it. It's planted on the side of the house outside, didn't you see it?"

As soon as Fang Yu heard it, he knew that she was talking about the space.Looking back, it seems to be a bit of an impression.

"That seems to be a kind of camphor tree?"

"Correct."

The two were chatting about what kind of tree the "fragrant leaf tree" was, and a man and a woman walked into the medicine hall.

The woman was walking in front wearing a strong outfit, and she just stepped into the medicine hall, her footsteps stopped.

"Ayu!" The princess did not expect to see him again so soon.

Chen Xiao heard her calling Ayu and saw what she was wearing.Strong clothes are popular in An County. She has never seen local people wearing strong clothes in Nanzhong County.Who is this woman is ready to be revealed.

Chen Xiao looked at the little princess. She was about seventeen or eighteen years old, about 1.7 meters tall, with wheat-colored skin, a round face, and an ordinary appearance. Her brows and eyes were full of confidence and heroism.This is a "temperament beauty".

Fang Yu's face was a little stiff, he didn't expect to meet the little princess here.

At the same time, the little princess was also looking at Chen Xiao.She is a bit short, with fair skin, delicate features, and a petite and exquisite appearance.

Ayu said that he liked Chen Xiaoxiao's maturity, stability and intelligence, but the little princess didn't see her "mature" at first glance, only felt that she was a delicate little girl.

"Is she Chen Xiaoxiao?" The princess asked Fang Yu.

"Yes." Fang Yu introduced to Chen Xiao: "She is the little princess Aru."

The little princess hurried forward and whispered: "Don't call me the princess, call me Aru from now on." At present, she hides her identity and calls herself the eldest lady of Shengtong Company.The Nanyue people don't know the background of Shengtong Company, they only think of her as a rich lady.

"He used to be my fiancé, did he tell you?" Aru said to Chen Xiao suddenly.

Fang Yu's head "buzzed".He knew that Aru was not a cheap lamp.She is obedient and obedient in front of her elders, and plays wild outside. This is a double-faced and eccentric person. When it comes to "disguising", Aru is no less than Ayu.

"I said so." Chen Xiao said lightly.

In her imagination, the little princess seems to be a little girl who likes to follow her brother's ass.However, when seeing the real little princess, Chen Xiao somehow felt that the other party was crushing him in terms of height and temperament.

It's not that Chen Xiao doesn't have confidence in herself, it's just that from an objective point of view, she thinks Fang Yu is a good match for the little princess, no wonder the elders want to match.

"Oh? What did he say?" The little princess looked interested.

"That's what he said. He said that he once had a fiancée." In fact, Fang Yu didn't say that, he just said that Asu intended to betroth the little princess to him.

"Then has he ever told you about his identities?"

"Said."

The little princess looked at Fang Yu, then at Chen Xiao, and smiled lightly.

The smile looked playful, but with a hint of bitterness.

"I didn't expect him to be quite frank with you." The little princess smiled miserably.

At this time, the buddy weighed the medicinal materials and brought them over.

"Mr. Fang, please leave a message on the cabinet." The man said.

Leaving a note is a signature, and Fang Yu only needs to sign for the medicinal materials here.

"Okay." Fang Yu went to sign.

The little princess glanced at the eye medicine hall, and asked Chen Xiao like a chat: "How old is your child?"

Chen Xiao was puzzled: "We don't have any children yet."

The little princess smiled.Before Gao Can said that they were not married, Xiao Shitou said that they had been married for several years, and Fang Yu said last night that he met Chen Xiaoxiao after he left Xiling.To be honest, the little princess has doubts about these claims.

"I heard that you are from Xiling Heishan?" the little princess asked.

"Yes."

"Where is your home in Montenegro?"

Chen Xiao quickly flashed many modern place names in his mind, and replied, "Shennongjia."

"Shennongjia?" The little princess wondered, "Where is Shennongjia in Montenegro?"

"In the depths of Montenegro. Specifically where it is... It's hard to describe, I only know how to get there."

The little princess recalled that she had heard descriptions about Montenegro, but had never heard of the place "Shennongjia".

At this time, Fang Yu came over after signing, and said to Chen Xiao: "Let's go."

The little princess said: "It is better to hit the sun than to choose a day. I invite you to dinner at noon today?"

Fang Yu said: "No, we still have something to do, we have to go back."

"It's just a meal! You have to eat everywhere." The little princess persuaded.

"The grandson is still waiting for these medicines, we have to go back quickly." Fang Yu picked up the medicine in his hand to signal.

The little princess thought about it, anyway, they made an appointment at noon tomorrow, and said: "Okay! See you at noon tomorrow."

"Okay, see you tomorrow." Fang Yu led Chen Xiao out of the medicine hall.

Looking at the back of their departure, the little princess had mixed feelings.

She turned her head and asked Sai Mu: "Have you ever heard of a place called Shennongjia in Montenegro?"

Sai Mu shook his head: "I haven't heard of it."

The little princess wanted to go back and ask Saiyang, he had been to Montenegro and knew a lot about it.
