Chapter 223: Flower Tea

"Zhu'er, today my father is going to the house to help slaughter the pig. Your mother is going to help turn the intestines too. Don't stay at home anymore, go and play with Jiu'er Yun'er Duo'er. Didn't you say that Young Master Jin Zhen rewarded you with clothes, and Yun'er Duo'er, you took it. ”

Early in the morning of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, Cai Er changed into a coarse blue coat and blue cotton shoes with exposed toes. With the same coarse clothes, the second lady was ready to go to the back kitchen of Yanfu to help.

Lin Zhu said: "Dad, go ahead, don't worry about me." I'll pick a little of these little mushrooms and take them to Jiu'er, as well as pickles. These clothes were bought in exchange for these things. ”

Cai Er hurriedly said: "You hurry up and pick mushrooms, and by the way, you will also pick them for the house." Your mother and I finished helping out in the back kitchen, so we came back and got it. Today, the iron housekeeper Chef Zhu is here. “

Lin Zhu agreed, "Dad." The first stubble was like this, and I picked it off and split it in half in a while. Half of it was given to the house, and one copy was taken to Young Master Jin Zhen's house. The mushroom grows very quickly, and it grows again in three to five days. When the time comes, leave a little New Year's dish for our family, and send the rest to the house. There are many guests in the house, and it is also fresh. There are also baby spinach, fine leeks. It doesn't look bad, but it's definitely fresh. ”

The second hand of the vegetable took a thick hemp rope and took the second lady out of the gate of the vegetable garden. Lin Zhu found that his mother seemed to be angry, so he didn't pay attention to Cai Er at all, and killed him with his eyes from time to time.

Didn't it mean that the medicine had already worked, and the relationship between the two had become intimate? How does it look awkward. Could it be that my father can't complete the task and make my mother angry? Take a few more courses of medicine, and then Doctor Zhang will tell you the home remedies. Everything will be fine. Lin Zhu secretly laughed a few times a little wickedly.

Turning around and entering the wooden house, the mushrooms did not mean to continue to grow, but they changed from one flower to one cluster, and a few more grew on one stalk. There are too many of them, and if you look at them visually, there should be no problem in picking two small baskets.

She took down the two delicately woven small baskets hanging on the wall, carefully plucked the small clusters of mushrooms, and gently put them into the baskets.

All the picking, just two blues,

She carried the two baskets out. Look at the small white and tender umbrella-shaped mushrooms that are tightly squeezed one by one. A sense of pride rose up.

This was the first mushroom she had grown, and although it looked weak and petite, it was far from what had been planned, but it had finally grown. That's where the good start begins. A good start is half the battle.

One can imagine a few more years. This room can build a few more. What oyster mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, golden mushrooms, mushrooms and mushrooms can be cultivated.

My mind is full of blueprints of mushrooms, and my heart is happy. I went into the house and scooped up some cold water and sprinkled it lightly on the mushrooms to make them look fresh.

I went into the next cabin and picked a few spinach. Pick up a knife and cut off two small handfuls of thin, fluffy leeks.

In fact, there were only a few leeks that were sparse, and she cut them with a knife in order to look good. ,

Scattered the scarce spinach and leeks around the basket, looked at it, and went into the house to take out a few naturally dried rose petals and sprinkle them on it, which looked relatively good.

Only then did he put a basket into the cabin, went into the house and picked up the clothes for Lin Yunlinduo, and walked out of the vegetable garden with the basket. When he was about to go out, he said to Rhubarb, who ran over affectionately, "Rhubarb, watch the door carefully." ”

After speaking, he untied the yellow dog's chains.

This big yellow dog is very well trained by them, and usually locks it next to the kennel all the time. Acts as a doorbell.

Letting it go at night or when the garden is empty is the best watchdog.

The big king dog wagked his tail and sent her out the door, and ran back into the yard.

She closed the fence door and locked it.

Although it is just a fence door, Cai Er Niang pays attention to a lock when she goes out, even if it is just a decoration.

She felt that no matter if there was anything worth stealing at home, it was very disappointing to be worried about the gentleman on the beam, and it was very important to lock the door. Lin Zhu knew that she was on guard against the Lin Zhang family, and Lin Zhang's Lin Yi and Lin San had all sneaked in when there was no one in the vegetable garden.

Walking down the slope, he first arrived at Young Master Jin Zhen's house and handed over a basket of delicate mushrooms with spinach and leeks to Jiu'er.

Jiu'er looked at a basket of small round mushrooms on the top of his head in a few green spinach that could drip water, and the small leeks were half-lying mischievously half-lying in the circle, with bright red rose petals sprinkled on it, and there seemed to be a fragrance of roses.

couldn't help laughing and bent his eyes, and ran to the house with the basket and raised it to Young Master Jin Zhen, who heard the voice and was thinking about it, and said, "Young Master, Young Master." Look at the vegetables you grow, how beautiful they are. ”

Young Master Jin Zhen took it and looked at it, and an intoxicating smile gathered on his handsome face. walked out and said, "Zhu'er, you are becoming more and more capable." Come in and have some tea. ”

Lin Zhu hurriedly shook his head and said, "Young Master Jin." You're welcome. You have already rewarded me with such good clothes, and the slave and maid have nothing to repay, so that's it. , I went over there to bribe my sister. I'm going to have to rely on them for help next year. ”

After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

Young Master Jin Zhen hurriedly said, "Zhu'er, wait a while and then go over." I have some good flower tea here, and it's never too late to try some and go again. ”

When Jiu'er heard this, she couldn't help but pull Lin Zhu into the house.

She knew that the young master wanted to talk to her sister, and every time the Chinese New Year came, the young master would become very irritable. Only when I see this sibling sister will I feel better.

After all, there is a person who is connected to his own blood.

It's hard to be gracious, and besides, she is not very restrained in front of Jin Zhen.

sat down with a pair of curious eyes wide and waited for Jiu'er to serve tea.

Young Master Jin Zhen looked at her impatiently, and said a little funny: "Zhu'er, what are you doing in such a hurry?" Wait slowly. ”

Lin Zhu smiled and said, "Young Master Jin, the slave maid heard that the flower tea smells fragrant and tastes sweet. It has the effect of nourishing beauty and beauty, and it can also eliminate food and spleen and help sleep, and the slave maid is a little impatient."

She naturally knew that she had drunk a lot of tea in her previous life for beauty and weight loss. However, she remembers reading a book about the history of flower tea, saying that the ancients had already invented it. The production process is very particular. It's going to be baked, distilled, or something. It's a palace secret.

I don't know if it's true or not.

Young Master Jin Zhen laughed even deeper. He said with feeling: "You have a little knowledge. I remember when I was a child, my mother loved to grow flowers, and every year she would collect a lot of petals, put them under a cloth cover to dry, and make tea with pure snow water collected on a snowy day. ”

There was a yearning in his eyes as he spoke.

Young Master Jin must be thinking about his mother. It's also the New Year, such an important day of reunion. He didn't seem to have any intention of going home.

said very intimately: "Young Master Jin, your mother must be a very interesting person, she must be very good-looking, and have a heart as beautiful as a flower." ”

In her consciousness, a woman who loves flowers must be a beautiful woman, a woman who will live a very delicate life, and a woman with a beautiful heart.

Young Master Jin Zhen's handsome eyes were a little moist. There is a mysterious beauty to it.

He sighed softly and said, "Mother kisses her." Indeed, she was a beautiful and delicate woman. ”

It's really blood-related, and my sister can tell her mother's appearance very clearly.

He still remembers when his mother was alive, once he returned to the palace and saw his mother planting flowers in the garden with her babbling sister.

She said thoughtfully: "Young Master Jin is homesick. You can take a time to go back and have a look. I don't know if Young Master Jin's house is far away. I can't go back for the New Year. If only it was too late. Let's go home to spend the New Year with my mother before the New Year. The mother of the child is worried. Young Master Jin's mother must miss you too. ”

Young Master Jin has a close relationship with her, that's for sure. But no matter how she guessed, it wouldn't be his siblings. Because Young Master Jin seems to have a very superior family background, his father and mother will never abandon his daughter. Even if you get lost, you can go back. At most, give some alimony to the second couple.

But so far, I haven't seen Young Master Jin's father and mother come to see her. And Young Master Jin didn't admit it, and of course he didn't deny that he had anything to do with him.

The relationship seems mysterious.

She spoke in the voice of a good friend.

Young Master Jin Zhen put away his charming smile and said, "It's not interesting to go back home. I went to see my father and mother the other day, and they were fine. ”

Where does he still have a home? My father and mother were buried five miles away from the capital. My sister is right in front of you.

Lin Zhu thought that his father and mother had come to the capital, and he had gone to the capital to see his father and mother, because he had recently opened an oil mill in the capital and bought a house.

said very obediently: "Young Master Jin took his father and mother to the capital." I heard Sister Jiu'er say that you bought a house in the capital, Young Master Jin is really filial. ”

Young Master Jin Zhen smiled bitterly and bowed his head slightly.

My sister doesn't remember anything before, and even if she does, it was before she was five years old. He still carries everything he gets.

As long as her sister is around, looking at her is like seeing her mother.

Jiu'er brought flower tea.

When I lifted the lid of the teacup, I felt a strange fragrance. It's not very strong, but it's refreshing.

"It smells so good." Lin Zhu was very intoxicated and tilted his head slightly and took a breath.

Young Master Jin Zhen's heart flickered, and his sister looked like her mother. What he remembers most is that every time his mother drinks tea, she is naturally intoxicated.

It's an exaggeration to feel the fragrance of flowers.

Lin Zhu opened his eyes and looked at the teacup, which contained bright red rose petals, a few wolfberries, and a few red dates. There are also a few that look like ginseng slices.

The rose petals are very delicate, not to mention drinking tea, just looking at the color of the tea, it is pleasing to the eye.

Lin Zhu took a sip gently, slightly bitter, and swallowed his stomach. After a while, the lips and teeth were filled with a fragrance.

She then took a few more sips, put down the teacup, and said with a smile, "Young Master Jin, it's really good tea." “

You can taste it, the red dates are the best, the wolfberries are the best, and the ginseng should also be the best.

Young Master Jin Zhen also picked up a cup of green tea in front of him and said: "Red dates are the most famous Xishan red dates in Xishan, and wolfberries are Wushan wolfberries in Dingyuan. That ginseng is the prince ginseng of Dingyuan Yunshan. Women are most afraid of lack of qi and blood, and these kinds of tea are the most suitable for women to drink. You have to drink more. ”

Others don't know Lin Zhu's age, but they just estimate it by looking at her appearance. He knew that his sister was actually over fifteen years old, and she should be a big girl. But the body is weak, although the woman's characteristics are gradually obvious, but she looks about twelve or thirteen years old.

He knew that this was a sign of malnutrition and lack of qi and blood.

Lin Zhu smiled and said, "Young Master Jin said that he was laughing. Where did the slave and maid get the spare money to drink these things? Roses can be homegrown. There is no red date and wolfberry vegetable garden. You can buy some of this, and ginseng doesn't dare to think about it. We can afford it there, and we'll see if we can afford it in a few years. ”

She was telling the truth.

Jin Zhen sounded a little sarcastic.

It's just a little ginseng, and my own sister can't afford to drink it.

And he can't give it to her openly.

He silently lowered his head and drank tea sullenly.

Is that wrong? Lin Zhu's clear eyes rolled.

said: "Young Master Jin, the slave maid can't afford it, if you have extra slaves here, don't mind if you secretly give me some." The slave and maid hid themselves in the house and drank it at night. I've heard that I drank and slept well at night. It is said that women are sleeping beauty. , if I sleep well and look good, I want to drink it for a year and a half, and my face will definitely be like a rose. Also, my mother is weak and has a loss of blood and energy, and the slave wants her to drink some too. What do you think? Young Master Jin? ”

According to her observations, Young Master Jin liked what she asked for the most.

It's just a little flower tea.

Sure enough, Young Master Jin laughed and said, "This is simple. Jiu'er,. Prepare a bag of flower tea for Zhu'er, and if it is ready, you want high-quality prince ginseng. ”

Zhu'er agreed with a smile on the side and went to the side to prepare.

Lin Zhu quickly finished drinking the tea, added some water by himself, and said, "Slave and maid drink a few more stubble, the more you drink this tea, the more flavorful it becomes." ”

Young Master Jin Zhen said: "You know the goods. I still have a good roserow here, and you can bring a bottle back and put it in the house, it smells good. ”

Rose dew should be the best perfume in ancient times. For more than two years, she had tried to make a little out of roses, but unfortunately it was a little fragrant. But it doesn't last long, and the fragrance doesn't last long.

It is said that women want the corners of their skirts to be fragrant. She likes a woman to lightly come to perfume.

Young Master Jin Zhen's things, those who come do not refuse.

But there are also kind words.

She hurriedly said, "Rosedew, this is something that the slave maid has thought about for more than ten years. , Master Jin. You're so nice. You must be a slave to your relatives in your last life. ”

She exaggerated as much as she could, making Young Master Jin Zhen feel the satisfaction of giving.

Sure enough, Jin Zhenjun's face became excited, and he said loudly to Jiu'er outside: "Jiu'er, bring a bottle of rose dew to Zhu'er, the best kind." ”

Jiu'er responded crisply. After a while, I brought a large bag of flower tea. A delicate glass bottle.

The glass vase is really exquisite, crystal clear, and engraved with roses. You can see the pale pink flower dew inside.

Lin Zhu carefully opened the cap of the bottle, and a faint floral fragrance came to his face.

It's definitely the intoxicating, natural rose scent.

She took a deep breath of intoxication again. Then close the bottle cap.

Putting the two things together, he said with a bright smile, "Young Master Jin, Sister Jiu'er." The things are stored here first, and when I finish bribing my sister, I will come and get them. ”

Her smile is beautiful, with fine white teeth and two round pear vortices at the corners of her mouth.

It's like a mother.

Young Master Jin Zhen's eyes were shocked. I heard a knock on the door outside, accompanied by Lin Yun's voice: "Zhu'er, Zhu'er......." (To be continued......)
