Xiao Yucheng coughed lightly and said, "When my father handed it over to me, he said that this jade pendant is very important, except for you and me, only Sister A knows, you don't tell others." ”

"Oh. I'm sorry for getting lost for a while. Xiao Yu came back to his senses and hurriedly returned the jade pendant to Xiao Yucheng, very embarrassed. Of course, she would not spread the word about this, and immediately nodded and promised: "I will keep it a secret, this jade pendant is extremely valuable when you look at it, you have to be careful to put it away and don't let others see it." ”

The faint fragrance in his hand did not retreat, Xiao Yu thought about the strange thing that happened in the inn when he first returned to Yuedi, and turned around and entered the house.

Not long after, Xiao Yucheng saw Xiao Yu take out a small square brocade bag with bamboo green and hand it to him.

The brocade bag is embroidered with moire lace, simple and elegant, tied with a long red line, and you can smell a light and pleasant aroma under your nose, but there is no fragrance filled inside.

"If you put the jade pendant in a brocade bag and put it on, it will not be so conspicuous, and it will not be easy to damage."

Xiao Yu vaguely guessed that the special smell on this jade pendant seemed to be easy to be discovered, so he specially matched the spices used in the sachet last time, and made a few spare brocade bags to cover up. And nowadays, there are also many people who put incense pills or spiritual talismans from the temple in their purses and wear them on their bodies.

Xiao Yucheng did what he said.

"What is this?" Coincidentally, Xiao Pei came back, and at a glance, he saw Xiao Yucheng putting a bamboo brocade bag in his arms, so he asked.

Xiao Yucheng told Xiao Pei about the matter.

Hearing this, Xiao Pei smiled and said, "Ah Yu has always been thoughtful. ”

Xiao Yu originally looked at the ancestral treasures that others kept secret, and he was a little reluctant to go, but seeing that Xiao Pei didn't mind, he smiled and said: "Yucheng is going to be put away, be careful that I will stupe you out one day and steal the jade pendant." ”

Xiao Pei smiled when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about, it's just a jade pendant, now that we are siblings, if you really like it, take it." ”

"That's not going to work, I'm just kidding." Xiao Yu waved his hand and smiled, "This is the heirloom of the Xiao family, didn't you say that the stakes are very important, it must be very valuable." And now that Yue Di is under the jurisdiction of the King of Jingnan County, the Su royal lineage is also taboo, and the matter of the Xiao family's ancestors and the King of Xianyue must not be mentioned again. ”

Xiao Pei and Xiao Yucheng felt justified and nodded yes.

Xiao Yu saw that the two of them didn't know much about this jade pendant, so he thought about it for a while, but didn't say anything after all. If it weren't for the fact that this jade was placed on Xiao Yucheng's body, Xiao Pei might have been discovered when he was poisoned last time.

Fortunately.

Xiao Pei picked up the bamboo brocade bag and took a closer look, and commented: "This sachet is still finely stitched, but the embroidery still needs more effort." ”

This brocade bag was made by Xiao Yu herself, and she didn't feel ashamed when she heard Xiao Pei say this, and said with a smile: "Sister is good at needlework, next time I will buy a good fabric and come back for Sister A to do." ”

"You." Xiao Pei said helplessly, "Can Sister A. do it for you?" I don't want to learn embroidery well. ”

Xiao Yu didn't care, and affirmed himself: "I think it's already very good to be able to sew clothes." ”

"I seem to remember Ah Yu, you also wear a bamboo green bag?"

"Hmm. It was a jade pendant left by my mother. It was precisely because I was alone that I didn't dare to expose it for fear of being coveted, so I thought of putting it in a brocade bag. Xiao Yu nodded, secretly ashamed that he didn't tell the truth. She studied poisons/medicines intensively, and knew that some powerful secret medicines could make people confide in everything without realizing it, and it might not be a good thing for Xiao Pei and Xiao Yucheng to know too much.

Xiao Yucheng looked at it, Xiao Yu had no choice but to take out the brocade bag from his arms, shook it with the red rope in front of his eyes, and put it in his shirt, and said, "It's the same as yours." If you think it's not good-looking, you can ask Sister Ah to make another change, but it's better to smoke some aroma for me first. ”

"Don't bother, I'll just use it." Xiao Yucheng said goodbye.

Xiao Pei said unhappily: "What do you mean by a will?" How many people rush to ask for the sachets made by Ah Yu! I don't know what to do! ”

Xiao Yu saw Xiao Yucheng bowing his head and being taught, covered his mouth and snickered, and said, "Sister, you don't know that Yucheng has always been duplicitous, spare him." ”

However, Xiao Pei's words reminded Xiao Yu that she could make more sachets and sell them in the county. The Qibao Ruyi Pill she made for Lizheng's wife some time ago was put in a sachet to wear, and it was very popular.

The recipe of the sachet is not unusual, it is better than Xiao Yu's medicine, and the preparation is also exquisite, and the sachet is made by Xiao Pei, the embroidery is excellent, and it looks exquisite and luxurious, which is naturally rare.

When you think of it, you have to do it.

The next morning, after finishing all the trivial work, Xiao Yu moved the medicinal materials and pharmaceutical tools to the courtyard to prepare the Qibao Ruyi Pill. The main ingredients of this medicine are Huoxiang, realgar, camphor, Angelica dahurica, cloves, peppermint, borneol, etc., which have the effect of aromatic qi and qi to dispel heat and dampness, and is a commonly used incense formula.

In fact, incense is also a traditional Chinese medicine therapy, that is, nasal therapy, also known as smelling incense. It is to put the incense medicine in the pouch and the bag of the underwear, or directly make it into an accessory to carry around, and use the medicinal smell to play to prevent and treat diseases. In addition to medicinal and timid odor to add aroma, incense can also be used for decoration, so it is favored by the people.

The climate is hot, rainy and humid, and the turbidity is born due to warmth, and the miasma is dispersed. And many incense medicines are restraining such unhealthy spirits, removing dampness, clearing the heart, dissolving turbidity, refreshing and cooling off the heat; In addition, poisons are rampant in the mountains and forests, and there are often medicinal materials to repel poisons in the sachets.

In this way, the people who cross the land are often incense and pendant.

Xiao Yu set up a small stove, put the copper pot on it, and put some medicinal herbs in it to fry.

By the time of lunch, Xiao Yu had already made a lot of Qibao Ruyi Pills. The finished incense pills are light brown in color, and their fragrance is crisp and fragrant and slightly bitter.

Xiao Pei and Xiao Yu put the incense pills the size of the dragon's eye core into the silk bag made by Xiao Pei, sealed the extra into the porcelain bottle, and waited for the bag to be sewn before use. In addition to this more common Qibao Ruyi Pill, Xiao Yu also prepared some incense pills, because the incense recipe was rare and precious, and it was only used by a few sisters and brothers, so as not to be too eye-catching.

"The sachets smell the same." Xiao Pei took one and sniffed it under his nose and said.

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "Most of the medicinal materials used to make the sachet are those flavors, such as mugwort leaves, borneol, mint, camphor, cloves, wood, Huoxiang, etc., ordinary people will feel that there is not much difference." But those who know medicinal herbs and spices can generally smell those medicinal herbs. ”

"Ah Yu must be able to smell it." Xiao Pei smiled and said.

"Ordinary ones don't matter." Xiao Yu was also not modest, "Otherwise, how can you use poison to detoxify?" This aroma is the most commonly used poison and drug. So be extra careful with spices. ”

Xiao Pei came out of the Chen Mansion and had also seen the battle in the inner house, so he nodded thoughtfully: "Those ladies and girls from high-ranking families will not easily use the sachets given by others. ”

Xiao Yu counted the sacs containing the Seven Treasures Ruyi Pill, there were eight, and said with a smile: "Sister's needlework is getting more and more colorful, and it has only been a few days to make so many brocade bags, but it is hard to stay up late to catch up with the lamp, and it takes a lot of eyesight, and each one has to sell at least one or two hundred wen, a total of a few taels of silver, and it costs half a year." ”

"You don't need money for those medicinal brocades or anything? Especially expensive things like ice chips. These sachets are not expensive to sell for three or four hundred wen each. Xiao Pei said.

"It's much more cost-effective than selling medicinal herbs. Will anyone really buy it? ”

"The workmanship is so delicate that it was intended to be sold to the rich. How could those people be short of this penny? ”

Xiao Yu sincerely envied her future brother-in-law. With such a wife who is good at cooking and can run a house, what more can a husband ask for?
