Eat in Song Dynasty

Chapter 45

After a while, Wang Ling turned around, held a yellow paper bag in her hand and raised it: "Self-defense powder."

"What?" Wen Shu seemed to be hearing about this for the first time, with question marks all over his face.

Wang Ling sat back beside her, opened the paper bag, and explained to her: "It's made of lime and pepper powder. Didn't you say that the road is dangerous? Take this with you. If you really meet a bad person, you will sprinkle it on his face." , no matter what, you can earn some time to escape."

Wen Shu was full of surprise: "Where did you get this thing?"

"I made it myself." Wang Ling said with a little pride on her face: "Ladies who are as old as us carry this self-defense with them, but each family has different formulas. I have experimented with these two for a long time, and I think The most powerful."

"Little ladies have them? Why haven't I heard of them before?"

"It was only raised in the past few months. I thought that you are so strong that even ordinary men can't get close to you, so I didn't say anything. Now that you said you were going to Cangzhou, I think it's better to bring some with you. "

Wen Shu was noncommittal about the power of this self-defense powder, but this also reminded her of one thing, before she left, should she ask Mr. Lu for some self-defense things, such as daggers or sweat medicine.

"Okay, I know about this, you should keep this self-defense powder for yourself, I will go to the pharmacy to make it myself."

"Aren't you short of money right now? Don't worry, I still have a bag with me. You take this." Wang Ling stuffed the paper bag into her hand involuntarily.

Wen Shutui couldn't refuse this kindness, so he had to accept it, and then took out the two washing stones that he planned to give her earlier in the morning from his sleeve.

Two stones, one dark green and one light yellow, were placed on the table, which immediately caught Wang Ling's attention: "What are these?"

"Washing stones can wash your face."

"You can wash your face!" Wang Ling looked at her in shock, "Are you kidding me?"

Washing her face with a stone, I'm afraid her face will be broken. Although the stone looks smooth and beautiful, it can't be used to wash her face, right?
"Don't worry, I've tried it myself, and there's absolutely no problem, and it won't scratch your delicate skin." The two played together since they were young, and when Wang Ling rolled her eyes, she knew what she was thinking.

"It's so amazing." Wang Ling picked up the stone and looked at it carefully.

"You'll know if you try it." After Wen Shu said this, he said goodbye and left.

The next day, it was still the same alley.

After meeting with Lu Xi, Wen Shu took out a fruit from his cloth bag and handed it to him with a smile: "I bought this fruit yesterday afternoon, I tasted it and it tastes good, Manager Lu will try it. "

Lu Xi didn't want to eat it at first, but he didn't eat any fruit when he was working with the young master, but he just glanced at the fruit in Wen Shu's hand and found that he didn't recognize it, so he couldn't help but took it: "What's the name of this fruit, why didn't I seem to have seen it before?" Pass?"

Wen Shu came here casually: "It's also my first time to eat fruit, but I heard from the fruit seller that it seems to be called Huaiguo."

Lu Xi nodded and said to her, "Thank you, little lady, it's getting late, little lady, hurry up and get in the car."

Wen Shu nodded slightly, and climbed into the carriage as usual.

On the way, the sound of Lu Xi eating fruit came from outside the curtain of the car. She touched the other two fruits in the cloth bag, and the corners of her mouth slightly curled up.

Three quarters of an hour later, Wen Shu followed Lu Xi into the other courtyard. Master Liu was already waiting there in the courtyard in front of the Liyuan flower hall.

Wen Shu bowed to him, called Master, looked around and saw that Lu Yuancheng was not there, and asked, "Why don't you see Mr. Lu?"

Lu Xi said: "My lord usually rests in the Marquis' Mansion on weekdays, and only comes here on holidays. Is the little lady looking for something to do with your lord?"

"Oh, it's nothing, just asking casually." She took off the cloth bag from her body and put it on the stone table, then turned around and said to Master Liu, "Master, let's start."

After a night's rest, although her arms were still a little sore, they were much better than yesterday's noon. After hearing that Master Liu asked her to rehearse what she learned yesterday, she tried her best to do her best.

An hour later, when she climbed into the carriage again to return, her arms changed back to what they were yesterday, sore and sore.She lazily slumped in the carriage, comforting herself, she had to endure hardships to be a master, so she must persevere.

The car drove into the city gate and was about to reach her home. Wen Shu hurriedly took out two Huaimu fruits from the cloth bag, and when Lu Xi stopped the car, he said, "Guard Lu, my lord asked the master to teach me martial arts, but I didn't." There is nothing else to thank, only these two fruits, I hope Guanshi Lu will pass them on to me."

Lu Xi had already eaten the fruit, and although he didn't recognize it, there was nothing wrong with it, so he agreed.

Wen Shu watched the carriage gradually go away, and secretly prayed in his heart, Mr. Lu must eat it!The two money is up to you.

It was night, when Lu Yuancheng came back from Dali Temple, just after changing his official uniform, he saw Lu Xi coming in from outside holding a tray.

"My lord, Miss Wen asked me to give you two fruits, thank you for asking someone to teach her martial arts."

Lu Yuancheng was worrying about the affairs in the hall, when he heard the words, he glanced at the tray and said: "You eat, I'm a bit hungry, let someone pass the meal on."

"Yes."

the next day, Chenshi

"Guard Lu, have you eaten the fruit yet?" Wen Shu looked at Lu Xi expectantly at the corner of Xizi Street.

Lu Xi couldn't bear it and said: "No, the young master let me eat."

Although she had expected it in her heart, at the moment when she really heard it, Wen Shu still felt a little bit lost in her heart.

It's too hard to earn some money in this world, her two pennies!
Wen Shu let out a growl in his heart, but on the face he looked aggrieved: "That's right, Mr. Lu hasn't eaten anything, so why would he care about the two wild fruits I gave you?"

Lu Xi really wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say.

speechless all the way

Five days passed in a flash, Wen Shu's Gale Palm has been quite effective under the guidance of Master Liu, at least the attacking moves are no longer weak.

To her embarrassment, the two pieces of money still hadn't been collected, and she had to go to the blacksmith's shop to get the box in the next afternoon.

Wen Shu rubbed the space between her brows, it seemed that she had to ask Linger to borrow it first.

The carriage was swaying on the road, but Lu Xi, who was driving the carriage in front, was a little out of his mind. Thinking of what the young master said yesterday, his heart felt like ants were crawling.

Yesterday the young master asked him to practice duel, he accidentally kicked the wooden stick in the young master's hand, he still remembered the surprised look in the young master's eyes.

At that time, for some reason, the unknown fruit that Mrs. Wen gave him, and her seemingly evasive words suddenly appeared in his mind.

'If I say that I became like this after eating a few fruits, would you believe me? "

Originally, he didn't believe it, but now, he wanted to say that he believed it a little bit!
