141. Enter the palace

Ye Wenxin endured it for a while, because he was afraid that he would be discovered early, but Shi Gui felt unstable: "These things can't be brought into the palace, what if they are searched out?"

Ye Wenxin glanced outside the curtain, not only did not whisper, but said loudly: "Aunt Pei said, rouge spices can still be brought, some incense in the palace is not useful, let's fight Yangzhou to bring it, not to mention the tide, there are also some borneol musk, although it is not hindered, in the end it is not appropriate, I want to make some mothballs by myself, it is interesting, and the taste is not heavy." ”

Only then did Shi Gui know that she had planned it a long time ago, and when she brought these things into the palace, even if Mama Feng saw it, she couldn't say anything.

Except for a small packet of croton powder, the rest are the materials used to make incense beads, when Renji Tang bought it, the guy also told him a thousand times, don't use it more, Shi Gui knew that she didn't make incense beads so simple, Ye Wenxin had already sent the jade to take out the set of guys she made incense, and then went out to boil clean water, and Su Chen went to get a small charcoal stove.

"Don't worry, follow the recipe, mix this into powder beads, wrap it in a layer of camphor incense, and scrape it with a knife when you want to use it, just so that people can see it, and I just brought a bag of camphor to prevent insects." "Which one will still search these show girls as thieves, incense powder rouge can be brought, camphor beads can naturally be brought, there is no share of these official girls in the palace, clothes and shoes are brought in by their own family, and then rush to make palace clothes when they go in.

Ye Wen thought about it for a long time, and came up with such a method, only to hide it from others, every time she came to the draft, she had a stomach trouble for two days, and the master couldn't be foolish, let alone diarrhea, who would dare to lead her to the nobles.

Shi Gui frowned: "The girl is weak, how can this thing stand it." "What if someone in the room finds out?

Ye Wenxin smiled slightly, like this twice, she knew that she was weak, no matter her character and appearance, as long as this one couldn't pass, whoever followed her with her face would not be able to stay in the palace, crush the powder pill, add it to the small incense burner and burn it, and only smell the camphor incense, and the people in the same room will never notice it again.

Shi Gui just looked at the croton she bought, so she dared to buy it back for her, and asked carefully about the medicinal properties, seeing that Ye Wenxin was determined to do this, she sighed: "The girl takes a flat hairpin with ear picking, two spoons are enough, and you can't eat more." ”

Ye Wenxin pursed his lips and smiled: "I know that you are the most appropriate." ”

Shi Gui's excuse was that his stomach was a little swollen, and he was squeaking, and the young man understood: "This is a winter's fire that has been accumulated, this medicine powder picks up two small spoons, and takes it with water, it will be effective immediately, but it can't be used often, and it can only come back once in five days or seven days." ”

Yu Xuan sorted out a set of incense-making tools, a small stove and a small glass, Shi Gui looked at the straight tongue, she didn't know that the things at this time were so complete, thinking of that Penglaike, and didn't feel weird, sorted out the long case, and laid out everything.

There are more than a dozen small bowls, all the size of a fist, either filled with powder or incense and lime charcoal, and each has a spicy and cool taste, croton is mixed in it, and how to distinguish it at a glance.

A small bowl and a small pestle for pounding the medicinal foam, a silver knife and a silver sieve, took out a small box of borneol, and didn't want another helper, pretending to say: "The master taught you the last thing, making incense, you have to learn by heart." ”

Ye Wenxin didn't mention the words of this master and apprentice for a long time, and the jade flakes bit their lips and smiled, put the curtain down, and gave Shi Gui a look, let

She waited for her.

The camphor rested in a small cup, the best cicada paper was sprayed wet and applied to the cup, and it was roasted for half an hour, Shi Gui's hands were sore for half an hour, Ye Wenxin saw that it was not a good thing, so he called Zhi Tao to come in, let her look at the fire, and Shi Gui went to sift the fine powder.

The croton flour has a spicy taste, the mint juice is adjusted to cover up the taste, kneaded into balls the size of rice beads, first roll over the fragrant powder, look at the white balls, and then grind the camphor lime to a fine level, soak it with milk, spread it in a cedar box, rub the balls like a cherry, seal them in a small tank, and bury them in the ground.

The spices have a spicy taste, the taste of croton is all covered, the small package of croton powder is all made into balls, and the plum blossom seal is also covered on the top, and there are also small bat patterns for other carved lotuses, only this plum pattern has to be used.

Buried for more than ten days, sealed from the tank, it was still wet, smelling of camphor, but with the fragrance of plum blossom borneol, Ye Wenxin also distributed a lot of it, as long as this is not cut, it is used for insect prevention.

Don't even show your face, who does this face look like again, it's always useless, Ye Wenxin pinched the incense pill and smiled, carefully put it into his purse, and called Shi Gui: "You help me like this, I always remember your goodness, when I come back, you can go home, and when the time comes, it's up to you to buy a house or buy a land." ”

She can't take out more, one or two hundred taels is still available, not to mention the side, one hundred taels of silver can be placed on fifty acres of fertile land and then built two tiled houses, and then give her another hundred taels as a private house, these money is enough for Shi Gui to live after returning home.

Shi Gui was naturally overjoyed when she heard this, if Ye Wenxin could get her wish, then she could also get her wish, not to mention, now the Song family wants Ye Wenxin to be a granddaughter-in-law, and she wants a girl, and there is nothing she should not.

The day before entering the palace, it rained early in the morning, and it became heavier and heavier, and the old lady said that she was going to hold a banquet, but Ye pushed it and let her eat the last meal before entering the palace with Ye Wenlan.

It was thunder and wind again, Song Yintang sent Ye Wenlan to the secluded fence, both of them were wet, and they didn't use their umbrellas, so they came, so they naturally wanted to come in and drink a cup of hot tea soup, Ye Wenxin twisted a towel to wipe his brother's face: "In such a rain, what kind of umbrella do you hold, you should wear a coat." ”

The little guy ran back to Zhile Zhai to get the clogs, Ye Wenxin naturally left Song Yintang to eat, eat a bowl of ginger soup, and eat with them, this table is full of Yangzhou dishes, Song Yintang specially found the master of Huaiyang cuisine, Wensi tofu and dried silk, sent it up one by one, Song Yintang also sighed: "It's a pity, if it's autumn at this time, you can still eat a crab roe lion head." ”

Where can Ye Wenxin eat, her heart is up and down for a while, thinking about the fragrant balls, only then can she feel at ease, but she is afraid of stubble, these days, in addition to going to the Ye family, she is locked in the house and sitting in the city of sorrow.

Song Yintang begged Mrs. Song, and then sued the Ye family, but she didn't reveal her intention to ask for marriage in front of Ye Wenxin, and when she came out, she would naturally know.

Shi Guitian poured tea and wine, it was still early at this time, the two thunders came down, but the black reached out and couldn't see the five fingers, a row of lights in the room was lit, and the bright light made people's hearts panic, Ye Wenxin looked sad, Song Yintang coughed, and said in the end: "Cousin, don't worry, there is already a candidate above." ”

How could he not see that Ye Wenxin was unwilling to enter the palace, saying this, Ye Wenxin's heart jumped, Song Yintang didn't want to say more, shook his head, and toasted her with a glass of wine.

Ye Wenxin didn't believe it at first, and then she was skeptical, in her heart, her father was a person who said that he could do anything, there was nothing he couldn't do on the boundary of Yangzhou, the family was so rich, the official reputation could be so good, he was filial piety and virtuous, and his face was more gold plated than the Buddha's face, how could he not do what he said he wanted to do.

Ye Wenxin was still unhappy, but Song Yintang promised to take care of Ye Wenlan because she was about to leave home, and said: "When my cousin comes back, it is the May Festival, and when the time comes, I will ask someone to prepare your favorite zongzi, do you like sweet or salty?"

It was not Ye Wenxin who answered him, but Ye Wenlan: "My sister likes sweet, a finger-long small zongzi, each of which is wrapped in honey beans, and the filling is stuffed enough, she can eat a bunch." There are only five or six in a bunch, but Ye Wen's heart and stomach are weak, and he is afraid of accumulating food, five or six are already a lot, Song Yintang nodded: "I know, I will prepare it for my sister." ”

Ye Wenxin smiled slightly: "Then I will first wish my cousin the nomination of the gold list, and he will win three yuan." ”

The rain fell intermittently all night, and most of the new buds in the yard were knocked down, Ye Wenxin woke up early in the morning, she didn't sleep well at night, half asleep and half awake, only that the sky was already bright, and it was still dark outside, she put on a cloak, opened the window, and looked at the droplets of water on the bamboo leaves, and stood until dawn.

Although the sky is clear, it still looks gloomy and gloomy, and I don't know when another rain will come, Ye Wenxin's things were loaded into the car early in the morning, and the consul and eunuch in the palace had already asked about the Ye family's girl living in the Song family, and they had set a date to pick up people early in the morning.

The official position of the old lady Song is on the table, and the Ye family is very rich in Yangzhou, and the eunuch is holding a big red seal of ten taels, and naturally waits in front of the hall with a smile.

Yu Yu had red circles in her eyes, Shi Gui also followed Ye Wenxin all the way, she put on a big cloak, wore a thick jacket, said goodbye to the old lady, and said goodbye to Ye: "I also ask my aunt to write more letters to my mother to report safety, if I can make someone send a letter out, I will also send it, if not, my aunt must think of me." ”

Ye Shi shook her hand tightly: "Don't worry about what you are next to, the family will miss you." ”

Ye Wenxin boarded the car and left, the Ye family sent two girls to follow the car, Shi Gui was one of them, followed the car and stopped, the green silk curtain moved, Ye Wenxin closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car, his chest was stuffy and wanted to cry, but he couldn't cry in the blink of an eye.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, there were already people waiting, they were all official daughters, and there were acquaintances among them, the granddaughter of Chen Ge's hometown saw Ye Wenxin at a glance, the two had met a few times, and they were familiar with each other, so they waited next to each other, and Chen Ge's granddaughter also took her hand: "Sister, when the house is assigned, let's live in one place." ”

The boxes brought have specifications, and they have been checked after opening the box, and those palace people take the opportunity to scrape the oil and water, Ye Wenxin looked at it first, only when the pill would be picked out, Mama saw that it was camphor, but she didn't take it out, but collected all the pollen and rouge: "The girl entered the palace, so she didn't need these." ”

One person received a sign with a surname written on it, as well as the official positions of their parents and ancestors, the granddaughter of Chen Ge's hometown was the first, Ye Wenxin was second, and the rest slipped their eyes on them one by one.

The granddaughter of Chen Ge's hometown was just born beautiful, but Ye Wenxin was different, she stood in the crowd with her eyebrows down, piercing people's eyes without saying anything, and those palace people came to her, and unconsciously softened her voice by two points.

The older ones in it are already in time, and the younger ones will be twelve, and the little girls all hung their heads, looked at the other from the corner of their eyes, and turned around, and Ye Wenxin only had Chen Ge's granddaughter by his side.

Shi Gui can see clearly, Ye Wenxin is not the best, but she is naturally different from others, not to mention that there is still a sadness between her eyebrows, which one is not a thousand spoils when she is at home, and all beings are equal at the gate of the palace.

The show girls were all picked up early, but the car stopped at this time, the eunuch nodded and leaned over, and helped people out with a smile on his face, Shi Gui knew it at a glance, the daughter of Lord Ji, who said that he had appointed the concubine Ji Ziyue.

King Rui's courtship made a fuss, but the saint bit it to death and didn't make a will, and then she didn't think that she was still a draft, as soon as Ji Ziyue came, she was led by her father-in-law and stood all the way to the front.

The eyes that were still rolling on Ye Wenxin suddenly turned to Ji Ziyue, Shi Gui watched Ye Wenxin walk into the red wall step by step, looked back at her, and smiled at her.
