Chapter 117: The eldest lady of the Jin family?
Miaoxian Ju is known as "the first restaurant in the south of the city". Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The shopkeeper's surname is Li, a famous student, who is good at cooking, and the medicinal food he has developed is also widely respected. Therefore, since the establishment of Miaoxian Ju, there has been an endless stream of guests who come here for food and lodging, and they are either rich or expensive. After all, the value of medicinal diets is not very affordable.
And in order to match the high price, the elixir used in this medicinal diet is also precious. Like "jade seed flower", "small bamboo", "seven-petal grass" and so on are commonly used.
But after such a back and forth, the supply of the elixir used by Miao Xianju has become the biggest problem. This "small bamboo" and "seven-petal grass" are easy to say, but this "jade flower" is very difficult to find. The environment in which it grows is extremely harsh, often only the extremely cold mountain peaks will have its traces, and the growth cycle is very long, and it is impossible to eat for ten or eight years.
Therefore, Li Sheng, the shopkeeper, made a special trip to the Northern Regions and signed a perennial agreement with a big family in the Northern Regions. A large number of spirit stones were exchanged for a perennial supply of elixir.
And the entire Northern Regions has this strength in terms of elixir, except for the Medicine City Jin family, naturally there is no second choice.
This is also the reason: when the Jin family and his party arrived in Nancheng a few days ago, Li Sheng would personally welcome them to the store and treat them as guests.
The moon gradually rose into the sky, and Li Sheng, the shopkeeper, personally knocked on the door of the private room and entered with soup.
He respectfully put the casserole in his hand on the table, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Everyone, please use it slowly, this is a medicinal soup specially cooked by the villain, 'Dragon Flying Phoenix Dance'." With that, he lifted the lid and set it aside.
At that time, I only heard one of the people sitting on the south side speak, "The shopkeeper is too polite, don't serve the food, we have enough of these, you can go and get busy." The man who spoke was richly dressed, with a jasper hairpin on his head, and he was very beautiful.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper Li Sheng immediately paused, and said with a smile: "Eh, let's go." ”
As he spoke, he pulled a child by the screen, and commanded in his ear: "Good life to take care of it, don't be lazy, if the guests in this private room have any requirements, come and tell me quickly." With that, he bowed his head again, exited the private room, and slowly closed the door.
After only a moment, the little boy hurried to the back kitchen, and hurriedly said, "Shopkeeper, there is... A stranger has broken into the private room! ”
"What?"
Li Sheng was cooking by himself, and when he heard the news, he immediately jumped up in fright. He turned his head left and right, wiped his hands on his waist, grabbed the child's sleeve, and asked urgently: "What's the matter, I just came back not long ago, why did someone break in, big tiger?" ”
The little boy blinked when he heard this, pointed to the door, and hurriedly replied: "Oh, when I came, I had already called for someone to shout, shopkeeper, go and have a look." ”
Li Sheng frowned and stretched out his hand, and with the word "go" coming out, the person had already rushed out first.
But when the two of them came to the door of the private room, they did not hear the slightest noise.
The little boy scratched his head and felt strange, and was about to push the door, but was stopped by Li Sheng waving his hand. He raised his right hand slightly, knocked lightly on the door of the private room, and said respectfully: "Little Li Sheng, I just heard the little boy in the store say that someone is making trouble, I don't know if that's the case?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the door of the private room suddenly opened, and a person who was originally sitting next to the beautiful woman bypassed the screen with a spring breeze on his face, stuffed him with a bag of spirit stones, and smiled with a smile: "Shopkeeper, you came just in time, go and add two more dishes to us." Well, it's the money for the meal. With that, he left the two of them without closing the door, turned around and walked into the room, and said vaguely: "Hehe, brother-in-law, I didn't expect to meet you in Nancheng, my sister is ......"
Li Sheng listened carefully, there was no noise in the private room at this time, it was clear that there was only the language of the dinner table, he looked up at the screen at the door and shook his head, closed the door by himself, and bowed back.
He beckoned to the little boy, as if he was a little reproachful, and opened his mouth to ask, "What's going on?" ”
The little boy was aggrieved when he heard it, and he didn't know where to put his hands, and said, "This... I don't know..."
Li Sheng shook his head to himself, "That's it, it's okay, you just wait here." ”
…
Before a stick of incense, Wang Yifan did receive some obstruction at the door of the private room, but this is not to blame anyone, only that he did not show up at the Jin family when he went to the Northern Regions.
This made the Jin family only know the name of "Wang Yifan", but they didn't know him.
However, fortunately, this "eldest lady of the Jin family" had met her face in her sister's jade slip, so when she recognized him at a glance, this misunderstanding naturally dissolved.
What Wang Yifan didn't expect was that this "eldest lady of the Jin family" was not Jin Jing, but her sister, the real "eldest lady" of the Jin family, Jin Yan. She was joined by her husband and some of her clansmen.
Therefore, after seeing the person in the private room, Wang Yifan was really a little surprised, when he knocked on the door of the private room, he was already ready, who would have thought that it was actually Jin Jing's family, which made him panic all of a sudden, and subconsciously wanted to leave.
However, he seems to have underestimated the Jin family's enthusiasm for him.
No, before he could say two words, he was pulled to the main seat of the banquet by the eldest aunt of the Jin family, and staggered with everyone.
Speaking of this aunt of the Jin family, he is also surnamed Jin, with a single name and a Yan character, which is homophonic with Jin Yan.
He was the first person who had the courage to go to the Jin family to propose marriage since Wang Yifan pacified the Northern Regions. Although he is not from the four great families, he is also a little confident, and he is self-made. The most important thing is that his character is very upright, so after accepting the test of the Jin family, he successfully married Miss Jin.
However, the couple's life after marriage has been in the medicine city of Jinfu, which can be regarded as a disguised income.
At this moment, Wang Yifan was seated safely with a wine glass, and after some greetings, he was no longer nervous. Of course, this is due to the eloquence of the "eldest aunt" Jin Yan and the personality charm of "self-cooked".
As for the little apprentice Mu Yan, under the gaze of the "eldest lady" Jin Yan and the relatives and friends of the Jin family, he slowly ate the medicinal food.
After a meal, the master and apprentice happily accepted the Jin family's offer to stay overnight, and sent them away with the saying that "I will visit the Northern Regions in the near future".
In the next few days, Wang Yifan couldn't resist the couple's invitation and participated in the rally in Nancheng with them. And it wasn't until the end of the month, when the autumn breeze crept in, that he left. With the help of the system, Wang Yifan also successfully purchased a large number of elixirs, and at the same time, he found out the origin of many cherished elixirs.
At the beginning of November, the master and apprentice set off from Nancheng and resumed their journey south.
And continue to collect "strange books and secret techniques", as well as rare elixirs and animal skins. After careful calculation, it seems that there is not much shortage of materials for this god-level potion and Luo shirt, and only three or four can be made. So as to achieve the titles of "god-level alchemist" and "god-level tailor".
