Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 298 I was slandered and defended my innocence (2)
Li Jingjing asked Mochizuki to hand Deng Laosi a bag of arrows.Elder Deng happily took the two soldiers to the mountains.

Qin Wanjing asked: "Uncle Li, Jing Niang, it's almost noon, shall we have barbecue?"

The black and white bear child of the Qin family immediately shouted: "I'm hungry." "My stomach is already flat. If you don't believe me, touch it, it's so flat."

Li Jingjing squatted down to really touch the little black bear's belly. It was really small. She nodded with a smile and said, "Let's eat the barbecue first, and prepare Brother Lin and Xiao Yazi's share, let them come back." It can be baked and eaten immediately."

Li Qubing took the black and white bear children of the Qin family to the thatched hut for convenience. When he came back, he saw that several followers had brought back a bunch of food, seasonings and wine from the soldiers, so he helped to light the firewood.

The black and white bear children of the Qin family clapped their hands happily and shouted: "I want to eat roasted rabbit legs!" "I want to eat roasted pheasant wings!"

Li Qubing smiled and asked Li Kai to take a hare and a pheasant to the creek to peel and hair them.

Qin Wanjing and Li Jingjing sat down on the red cloth spread on the grass after having a rest, talking and making fruit for the two brats.

At this time, the sky was brightly red and the sun was shining brightly, and it was almost the hottest time of the day. Fortunately, here was the west side of Lishan Mountain, so the sun could not shine through, and the mountain breeze was gentle, which was very cool.

The smell of barbecue wafted in the air, and Li Jingjing soon tasted the very delicious venison, fish, and lamb sprinkled with salt, chili powder, and cumin powder, and was in a great mood.

Qin Wanjing exclaimed: "This one is unexpectedly expensive cumin powder produced in Persia."

It was the first time Li Jingjing ate cumin powder when she came to Dingchao, and she asked curiously, "How much is cumin powder per catty?"

"Book of Herbs" records: Cumin is also known as Kuming and Cumin.As a condiment, it is suitable for meat cooking and can also be used as a spice.The fruit of cumin can be used as medicine to treat diseases such as indigestion and stomach cold abdominal pain. (Excerpt from Baidu)

"In the past, cumin powder cost 50 taels per catty. In the past two years, the imperial court has exchanged special products with Persia, and it has dropped to 30 taels per catty." Qin Wanjing ate the barbecue with gentle eyes, and asked, "Who are you?" Great pharmacist, have you ever heard of the speckle-removing ointment made by the monk Huichun?"

Li Qubing, who was distributing skewers to the black and white bear children of the Qin family, couldn't help turning his head to look over.

Li Jingjing said calmly: "I know."

Qin Wanjing said a little excitedly: "A small box of speckle-removing ointment was sold for 80 taels in Chang'an, but when it was shipped to Persia, the price doubled to nearly 500 taels and the supply exceeded demand. The imperial court used this to communicate with Persia. Exchange some items, among them cumin seeds."

"Oh. Now we planted cumin in Dingchao, so the price of cumin powder in Persia has dropped?" Li Jingjing said inwardly: No wonder Guangmingzi gave me more money every time. It turned out that the freckle cream was sold abroad. It has become a sky-high price.

Qin Wanjing nodded with a smile and said, "You're right. The queen sent people to try planting some in the north, and the yield is not high, but it's better than nothing."

Li Qubing asked with a frown: "Persia has taken the anti-freckle ointment, but has it ever unlocked the prescription and made it here?"

Qin Wanjing smiled brighter, shook her head and said: "I heard from my aunt that the pharmacists of the Persian State University are much worse than our Ding Dynasty. In recent years, many great pharmacists of this dynasty have been unable to solve the prescription of spot-removing ointment. They It's even more impossible."

Li Qubing looked proud, and said: "Rejuvenation Master Huichun is extremely skilled in medicine, how can the plaster prescription made by the Persian National University Pharmacist be able to unravel it?"

"I'm really curious about what kind of person Huichun Layman is, who can make such a miraculous freckle removal cream?" Qin Wanjing wiped the oil stains on the corners of Qin Libang's mouth with a handkerchief.

Li Jingjing saw that Qin Wanjing didn't seem to be probing, and thought: So my aunt has never told Aunt Deng that I am a Huichun Layman.

After a while, the hunters came back one after another, and they all hunted their prey. This time, the time was short, and there were nearly a thousand people at once. There were more people than wild beasts, scaring away the wild beasts, and not many wild beasts were caught.

Qin Libang and Qin Jiahao were half full, and ran to look at the harvest of other people's houses. Every time they saw one, they turned their heads and waved vigorously to Qin Wanjing and Li Jingjing, and shouted proudly: "Sister Jing, sister Jing, they don't have us! Lots of prey!"

The ladies and young masters of Zhang County, Wang County, and Feng County came over to have a look, counted the prey, and asked doubtfully: "This is strange. We entered the mountain earlier than you, and there are more people than you. How did we hunt the prey?" Not as many as you?"

"Why are you so lucky, with two young men, you still have more prey than us?"

"He even shot a badger?!"

Li Jingjing smiled and said, "This badger was hunted by Sister Jing. Sister Jing is very good. In addition to hunting six beasts, she also hunted a big owl that is flying."

"Jingniang's martial arts and archery skills have always been the best among us." "Jingniang once hunted an adult wolf." Miss Wang and Miss Feng sincerely praised Qin Wanjing for her good archery skills.

"I haven't hunted for a long time, but this one performed really well, and those wild beasts were stupid and unlucky, and I shot them. Come and taste the meat roasted by our entourage." Qin Wanjing smiled and handed six skewers to Miss Wang and Miss Feng. The grilled venison kebabs do not explain the secret weapon used.

Ms. Zhang was full of disbelief, her eyebrows were slightly frowned, she stretched out her foot and kicked the motionless badger with its eyes closed a few times, and then kicked the hare, pheasant, and hedgehog one by one, and said with a disdainful sneer: "Come and see, these beasts are so ugly. It is true that there are arrow holes, but they all died early!"

"So they all died a long time ago?" The six young masters of the Zhang family immediately surrounded them, kicked their prey once like Miss Zhang, and then stared at Qin Wanjing suspiciously and mockingly.

Ms. Wang and Ms. Feng were eating delicious roasted venison, their faces changed slightly when they heard the words, but they didn't go to check the prey.

Qin Libang ran over, raised his head, and said solemnly: "They are not dead, they just fainted from the arrow."

Ms. Zhang glanced at Qin Wanjing, and deliberately said loudly: "It's nothing more than a beast being stunned by an arrow, and several beasts are stunned by an arrow. It's so funny!"

The six young masters of the Zhang family asked: "Didn't you say you beat the big owl?" "Where's the owl?"

"The owl is an unlucky beast, so I asked niece Jing to abandon the owl." Li Qubing regretted abandoning the owl in his heart.

"The owl is a big bird, flying very fast, how can it be so easy to hunt?" Ms. Zhang said with a sarcasm, and said with a smile: "Jing Niang, if you want to brag in the future, let alone hunting owls, if you say that crows can be believed .”

Qin Libang gestured with the size of the owl with his small hands, and said anxiously: "Sister Jing really hit the owl, it's such a big one!"

Qin Jiahao put his hips on his hips angrily and said loudly: "You are all wrong. Sister Jing's archery skills are really good, and she has hunted a lot of beasts!"
