Rebirth cannon fodder

Chapter 74 Spices
"Don't go!" Xu Shuzhen suddenly screamed emotionally, "I won't let you go!"

"What's wrong?" Xu Yingzhen was taken aback by her, looked at the strange third sister in surprise, and asked falteringly, "Third sister... what's wrong with you?"

Seeing Xu Yingzhen's surprised expression, Xu Shuzhen realized that she hadn't controlled her emotions for a while. Her heart was broken, but she immediately changed into a very gentle expression, and softly persuaded: "Yingzhen... you This idea is not very appropriate."

"Why is it wrong?" Xu Yingzhen was very unhappy.Taking advantage of the aunt's preparation of spices for Xu Manzhen, I broke in with Xu Shuzhen myself. I must... Could it be that her majestic Mrs. Xu's family can't bear such a small amount of money?If it really doesn't work, it's okay to call her "mother" a few times.

What is Xu Shuzhen worried about?

"Think about it, mother... Mother... She is Xu Manzhen's mother, not our mother. She prepared spices for Xu Manzhen, but she didn't ask us. It can be seen that she just didn't want to match us... Even if he ran over, he would be making fun of himself. If not done well, Xu Manzhen would laugh at Yifan." Xu Manzhen analyzed carefully to Xu Yingzhen.

"Xu Manzhen dares to laugh at me? She laughs at me, so I'll scold her!" Xu Yingzhen said proudly, and then begged softly, "Sister, please go with me... Please..."

Xu Shuzhen did not expect that Xu Yingzhen would be so stubborn today, she frowned quietly, and continued to persuade: "Mother... the money for her spices is not paid by the government, but her dowry... Logically speaking, her As for the dowry, only the eldest brother and the second sister have a share, we... have no share in the first place... we should not go..."

"I don't want much, it's just a spice, how much can it cost?" Xu Yingzhen was determined, no matter how Xu Shuzhen tried to persuade her, she just refused to listen.

Xu Yingzhen was resolute. Although Xu Shuzhen refused to go, she pulled Xu Shuzhen by force.The two arrived at Jingxinzhai together, and the maid brought them here after the maid informed them.

Xu Manzhen was describing in detail the perfume she wanted to the master craftsman of Jiuxiang Pavilion—no, the smell of spices, she also used perfumes in her previous life, but she didn't like the very strong smell, but liked the light scented ones Brand, it smells delicate and elegant, making people feel fresh and happy.

However, there is no such technology in this era, so she doubts whether it can be configured.The old master of Jiuxiang Pavilion in front of him, the more he listened to her description, the more he frowned.

"Miss Xu is really a caring person." The master thought for a long time, sweat dripped down, and finally stood up, bowed to Xu Manzhen, and said, "If I can successfully concoct the fragrance that Miss Xu mentioned...that's simply yes……"

The master thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of the right words to express it, but his expression had already explained to Xu Manzhen what he meant.

So Xu Manzhen smiled softly, and said: "It's nothing special, in fact, there are many more flavors of spices... If your store can really configure it, then I can tell you some scents, you guys You can still try it."

"Miss Xu is serious?" The old master was very happy.

Xu Manzhen nodded with a smile.Okay, although she doesn't know how to make perfume, she doesn't have to work hard on her own, does she?As long as you tell people in this era, they can do it!

In fact, apart from having a wider vision, are the traversers really better than the aborigines in any other respects?That's not necessarily it!

"That's good, that's good...the old man hastened to go back to configure..." The old master was so anxious that he hurriedly packed up the things he brought.

"Auntie! Auntie!" At this time, Xu Yingzhen came in yelling.Xu Shuzhen followed behind with a calm face, but when she saw someone, she immediately changed into a smiling face.

Xu Manzhen looked in surprise at the two people who were unlikely to be able to go to Jingxin Pavilion.They are here?how is this possible?

In other words, Xu Yingzhen still has this possibility, but how could Xu Shuzhen come?Now that the Jiang family has not resumed the authority of the housekeeper, she also acts in a low-key manner, and does not ask her children to come to pay their respects in the morning or anything.Only Xu Manzhen would come here every day, but this time was not so stable.

Xu Manzhen still remembered what Jiang shi said to her last time. The death of Xu Shuzhen's biological mother, the maid named Nan Xing, seemed to be the fault of Jiang shi.Because of this, Jiang was punished to practice for more than ten years, and the more important thing is that Xu Shuzhen, she seems to know about this, and really thinks that Jiang killed her mother.

What is the truth, Xu Manzhen wanted to find out, but after so many years, it is impossible to find out easily, it needs a chance.However, Xu Shuzhen's attitude was very annoying.

No wonder she has been at odds with herself, it turned out that she thought her mother killed her biological mother...

Well, now that Xu Shuzhen can come in, it is very intriguing.You know, Xu Shuzhen regarded Jiang as a sinner.

"Ma'am." Xu Yingzhen saw that the old master of Jiuxiang Pavilion was about to leave with a suitcase on his back. She was in a hurry, started running and ran over, and shouted, "Ma'am... I want spices too... I want spices too."

Does she really dare to ask for it?Xu Manzhen was so convinced by her, she ran over when she saw something good, so thick-skinned!
But he didn't call "Mother" yet, but only called "Auntie"!
Jiang looked at Xu Yingzhen and was slightly taken aback.She never thought that there are still such people in the mansion now, who would dare to blatantly ask for things from her.

She ignored Xu Yingzhen, but looked at Xu Shuzhen behind her calmly.

Xu Shuzhen walked in slowly, lowered her head and called softly, "Ma'am."

"Are you also here to ask for spices?" Jiang asked Xu Shuzhen very kindly.They are all concubines, so if you want to buy them, you have to buy them together.

Xu Shuzhen stood there quietly with her head lowered, and she didn't raise her head when she heard Jiang's question, but said softly, "Thank you Ma'am, Shuzhen doesn't need this thing."

"Third Sister..." Xu Yingzhen was in a hurry, she had clearly agreed, why did she say no when the aunt asked her?The aunt has a lot of money on hand, so she definitely wouldn't buy them cheap things.

"Xu Yingzhen, what did you ask my mother to do just now?" Xu Manzhen came over, leaned on Jiang's body, and asked softly.

Wanting benefits, but not even wanting to say "mother", it's not that easy.

"You...Xu Manzhen, don't go too far!" Xu Yingzhen became anxious when she heard this.The Jiang family has not lived in the mansion for a long time, and she has always called her a lady. Now it is so easy to ask her to change her words!

"Master Xue, I'm really tired of you today." Jiang put down the teacup in his hand, and said softly to the master, "My Manzhen is not sensible, and I have to make you tired of making a brand new fragrance... I'm really sorry."

"Ma'am, you're welcome." The old master hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Actually, I want to thank Miss. If it wasn't for her, I would never have thought that spices could be prepared in this way." The old master stroked his face With a little beard, he said with a smile.

"Then thank you first for today. Hongqi, don't see off the guests yet." Jiang called her eldest maid loudly.

A very plainly dressed woman came out.Judging by her appearance, she is not young, but she turned out to be the personal girl who went to practice with her in the house next door, because this practice lasted for more than ten years, which naturally delayed the marriage.

But now, she has vowed never to marry again, and will serve the Jiang family for the rest of her life.

Seeing Hongqi coming to take the old master from Jiuxiang Pavilion out, Xu Yingzhen became anxious. After going out, it would not be so easy for him to wake up the spices.

"Third Sister!" Xu Yingzhen desperately shook Xu Shuzhen.

At this time, Xu Shuzhen suddenly came to her senses, yes, how could she express her emotions in advance?How can this be done?

In this mansion, Xu Yingzhen is her very important support, so she must not be suspicious.

Xu Shuzhen smiled softly, and said, "Ma'am... no, it's mother. Shuzhen likes plum fragrance. May I have some plum blossom fragrance?"

"I like sweet-scented osmanthus!" Xu Yingzhen yelled loudly, but when she saw Xu Manzhen in Jiang's arms sneering at her, the evidence froze, and then she called out in a low voice, "Mother." The voice was reluctant.

No matter how reluctant you are, as long as you want to benefit from this place, a "mother" is definitely indispensable.

A very strange smile appeared on Jiang's face, and then, amid Xu Yingzhen's eager longing, he said to the old master: "Master Xue, here is a piece of plum-flavored spice, and another piece of sweet-scented osmanthus-flavored spice." But he did not order any more. Master Xue has a new configuration, as long as there is a standard configuration.

Master Xue is also a very sensible person. What else can he not understand about the scene in front of him?Then he opened the box, took out two pieces of fragrant cakes, and handed them to the girl behind them.

"What is this?" Xu Yingzhen asked with some dissatisfaction after taking the piece of fragrant cake from Bai Xian.Is this thing okay?Why can't she design the flavor she wants like Xu Manzhen?
"Go back to this lady, this is the imperial concubine plum cake." Master Xue replied with a smile.

"The imperial concubine...is it used by the ladies in the palace?" Xu Yingzhen's eyes lit up.

The corner of Master Xue's mouth twitched, but he immediately returned to normal. He smiled and replied: "Yes, this fragrant cake is made from a recipe handed down from the palace."

He didn't lie, it was indeed a prescription from the palace, and it was indeed used by the ladies-it's a pity that this time is hundreds of years ahead!
Such a long time is enough to make this spice, which was originally used by girls, has become a very popular variety.Although what he brought were not ordinary goods, they couldn't compare with what the second young lady asked for just now.

But of course, it is impossible for a little girl who has been locked in the yard for many years to know these things. She thought how precious this thing was and was overjoyed.
