All the way in, there is a small courtyard not far from the factory, this place is hidden, and Chen Qinghuan didn't notice it when he came last time.

This place is the residence of the pretty girl, after the lord of the forest hall got the news, he asked the pretty girl to choose a room in this small courtyard as the county lord's foothold, the pretty girl never lived with people, but when she thought of being the county lord of Qinghuan, she was not too repulsed in her heart, so she arranged a small house in the next room to ensure that it was no worse than the palace.

This place is fresh and chic, there are rockeries and flowing water, flowers, plants, birds and fish, although the yard is small and complete, Chen Qinghuan did not hide his liking, and walked in without saying a word.

The pretty girl happened to come out of the room, and bumped into someone who came and sighed, "Is the county lord here?" ”

"Haha, I also happened to meet the county lord in time, so I didn't have time. Hall Master Lin smiled and scratched his head.

Chen Qinghuan took a step back and took the posture of a junior, "Senior sister, Hall Master Lin, I'm going to bother you these days." ”

"Hey, as long as the county lord can come up with more ideas, what bothers or not, you can live here and not return to the palace!"

Lin Tang Master was straightforward and fast-talking, and he didn't cover up his words, and the pretty girl glared at him sideways, "Say some nonsense." ”

The Lin Hall Master, who received the eyes, was silent and patted his mouth, and the pretty girl said to Chen Qinghuan: "Why did the county lord suddenly come to live outside the palace, is there anything that needs our Shenmu Hall's help, if it is to make jewelry or something, just ask." ”

Chen Qinghuan came suddenly, although the Lord of the Lin Hall was happy, he was also very surprised, he didn't know the reason, he only heard Qinghuan's name and agreed, if other princes and princesses wanted to come to their Shenmu Hall, they might not agree.

"I really have something to ask for the hall master. Chen Qinghuan didn't beat around the bush, "I want a small open space, and then I want a lot of saltpeter mines, sulfur and charcoal powder, preferably in a remote place, so as not to disturb your daily work." ”

As soon as these items are spoken, the chemistry department should know what she wants to do. What Chen Qinghuan wanted to do was fire/medicine, yesterday's charcoal stuck some sulfur powder, and it exploded when it touched an open flame, it was this little thing that woke her up, so she suddenly wanted to come outside the palace. To be secluded, to have all the materials, and not to be known, all she can think of is here in Shenmu Hall.

To be honest, although she is a science student, she is not very clear about such uncommon things as gun/medicine, and she can accurately say the ingredients of black fire/medicine, or because Yao Jia pulled her to play a game, and this thing appeared in the game, she remembered it. But she only knows the main ingredients, the proportion and the like can only rely on her own to try again and again, whether it can succeed is unknown, and the book is hated when it is used.

Hall Master Lin was confused when he heard this, "These other requirements are easy to say, but what is the saltpeter mine in your mouth?" He knew that the county lord had always been whimsical, but he really had never heard of this thing.

This time it was Chen Qinghuan's turn to be stunned, she thought that the difficulty of making fire/medicine was in the proportion, but she didn't expect the problem to be in this step of finding saltpeter?

"It's a specialty of my hometown......" replied with a familiar déjà vu, "Then the trouble is to replace the mud in the corner of the stable and the latrine, and the one next to the pigsty, remember that it must be old." Chen Qinghuan reacted quickly and changed his words.

Saltpeter in nature is the so-called ground frost, that is, the white substance formed by the decomposition of nitrogenous organic substances such as urine by bacteria, plus the oxidation of air, and the potassium in the soil. This is what she learned from textbooks.

"Is it convenient to reveal what you are planning to do?" Hall Master Lin and the pretty girl glanced at each other, we don't know what this is doing, and we don't dare to ask.

Don't talk about the two of them, even Xiao Mao was confused, wasn't the saint Mo stimulated by the departure of the third prince, and came here to ask for hardships, a specialty of her hometown? Why didn't she know that there was such a specialty.

"It's not that it's inconvenient, it's that I can't say it clearly for a while, and I can't guarantee success, and if I do do it, it's not too late to tell you. ”

They didn't get an answer, but they probably understood that they were going to do something.

If these requirements were put on others, Hall Master Lin would definitely not take a look at them, but when Chen Qinghuan said it, he always felt relieved, nodded, and agreed, "Okay, these are all small meanings, the empty yard is ready-made, what you said, I will let people buy it tomorrow, but you also have to promise me that you will be free on weekdays, and come to my field to have a look." ”

"Okay, I must come often, thank you Hall Master Lin. Chen Qinghuan said happily, turned around and thanked the pretty girl, "Thank you too." ”

Qiao Niang smiled, "Thank you for what I did, I can't help you with what you said." ”

"Thank you in advance, maybe you will use it in the future. ”

The pretty girl was amused all of a sudden, "Just your sharp teeth." ”

A few people exchanged a few words, and the master of the hall Lin and the pretty girl still had a job, so they asked her to familiarize herself with the environment first, and they left temporarily.

Chen Qinghuan went to the house, the room was elegantly decorated and quiet, the incense was a good smell of osmanthus flowers, which should be mixed with other spices, and it smelled not greasy but refreshing. Xiao Mao skillfully opened the luggage, took out the clothes and accessories and put them away one by one, while the snow fox rolled his eyes to look at this strange environment, and dragged his hind legs to explore around with difficulty.

Chen Qinghuan poured two cups of tea, picked up one of them and drank it herself, the air outside the palace was fresher, and the tea outside the palace was also better.

"Holy Maiden, are you going to go out for a walk today? I finally came out once, and I happened to be free, and if I was going to go out in a moment, I would take out the clothes I had gone out and put them aside. Xiao Mao especially wanted to go out to see, when she was still in Ningxia, she was still young, and the days that she could barely remember started in the palace, and later came to Yanguo, and she never went out of the palace, so she can be said to be a bird born in a cage.

Chen Qinghuan heard the hope in Xiao Mao's words, and promised: "Okay, in fact, you can go out to play every day during the time in Shenmu Hall in the future, you don't have to report to me, I will start retreat tomorrow, and you don't need to follow me all the time." ”

If she had stayed in the past, she would have wanted to run out twice in three days, but now that it has been a long time, there is no new energy for a long time.

"Wow, thank you, I know the best, what dress do you want to wear today? How about this pale pink dress, or this cyan one?"

"Whatever you want, you can choose, I can do it. ”

Xiao Mao was so happy that she wanted to turn in circles, she felt that she was so lucky, she thought that she followed the saint to Yanguo to endure hardships, but as a result, her life was more comfortable than anyone else.

"The county lord. In the distance, the voice of the hall master Lin came from outside the door, "What does the county lord think of this, is there anything he is not satisfied with?" The hall master Lin who had just left appeared again, standing in the courtyard and shouting into the house.

Chen Qinghuan heard the voice and walked out, and Xiao Mao also put down what he was doing and followed behind.

The snow fox slowly passed by the hall master Lin, and the hall master felt strange and laughed, "This fox is so good-looking, white and clean, and not afraid of people." ”

"It's called Xiaojia, maybe because I've been raised by my side since I was a child, so I'm very humane, and I won't cause trouble to Shenmutang, but I hurt my hind leg a few days ago, and I don't walk very flexibly. Chen Qinghuan walked up to the master of the Lin Hall, "Pretty girl, who can be dissatisfied, the house is clean and tidy, and the dress is good-looking, I am so satisfied." ”

"Oh, that's good. Lin Hall Master laughed, "County Lord, that's the case, a few years ago, our Shenmu Hall has traveled all over Yancheng, and put the pulley you proposed last time, we call it a wooden shaft, and pushed this latest technology to all the workshops, this is just after the New Year, two new yards have opened on the West Street, I want to go there today to see, and by the way, I will teach them the technology of wooden shafts." ”

"You have a lot of credit for this technology, although the emperor has never let me say anything about the county lord, but I have never forgotten in my heart, no, I will set off for West Street in a while, do you want to go with me to see the county lord?"

"I see. "No wonder Hall Master Lin turned back, Chen Qinghuan thought secretly.

Lin Tang Lord's face was slightly red, "Qiao Niang just scolded me again, saying that the county lord is noble, how can she go to that kind of place, what do you say she knows about a girl's family, I know that the county lord is not such an arrogant person, so I still came over to ask." ”

Chen Qinghuan smiled, "Hall Master Lin really knows me well, so please wait for me for a while, and I'll change my clothes and go with you." ”

"Cheng!" Seeing Chen Qinghuan's hearty promise, Hall Master Lin really liked this child more and more, "County Lord is not in a hurry, I will wait for you at the back door of the second courtyard." ”

"Okay. ”

The master of the hall strode away, Chen Qinghuan did not delay the time, and immediately returned to the house to change into casual clothes, and Xiao Mao put back all the beautiful skirts that he had just taken out.

"Xiao Mao, you don't have to follow me to the factory, if you're not afraid of shopping alone, you can get off the bus on West Street halfway to play by yourself, and I'll pick you up when I come back with Master Lin. ”

Chen Qinghuan can be described as invincible, and his human feelings are sophisticated, which is very convenient to handle, taking into account all aspects.

Xiao Mao answered, and after Chen Qinghuan changed her clothes, she took out a veil and put it on her face, "Put this on." ”

Needless to say, knowing the reason, Chen Qinghuan also felt that it was safer to wear a veil. Sometimes it's not a good thing to look too ostentatious, she is a precocious girl, although she is young, her appearance has slowly grown, and she is a little more bright than her peers.

After packing up everything, the two walked through the first courtyard and went straight to the second courtyard, and the workers in the backyard were very attentive to their work, only a few people noticed the two of them.

"I heard that it's the county lord of Qinghuan? ”

"I can't see clearly with a veil, and besides, I haven't seen the county lord either, um, but I seem to have heard the hall master mention it twice, didn't the hall master say yesterday that he was waiting for a distinguished guest, and it should be the county lord who was waiting. ”

Because Yan Xi had given an order so that the hall master Lin could not tell Chen Qinghuan about Chen Qinghuan's participation in the design, he did not clearly mention that the county lord would come to Shenmu Hall to live here, which made everyone a little strange why the county lord appeared here.

"You said that the county lord stayed well in the palace, what did he do in our Shenmu Hall, but the Lin hall master was also confused, and even let a little girl go in and out of the backyard. ”

"Shhh ”

"What's the matter, she can't hear it, I remember, the county lord is still the saint of Ningxia. ”

"It's not uncommon for the most prosperous saint in the Western Regions to say it. ”

Even if the other party is a noble county lord, they have no respect from the bottom of their hearts, in the eyes of the carpenters here, only the top carpenters like the Lin Hall Lord are worthy of their admiration, or the soldiers who went into battle to kill the enemy and defend the country, in short, they despise the weak and weak women in their hearts. The superiority of men and women in the Central Plains is somewhat deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
