After a while, the little maid from the East Courtyard came to report that Miss Biao had sent someone to Zhou's house, asked Zhou's family to send a car to pick him up, and asked to take away the ink painting. Nangong You nodded in agreement.

Ye Xiaoyan asked, "Is there anyone else in the Zhou family?" ”

Nangong You said: "There is no one, there are only a few subordinates to help her guard the house." ”

"She still has a mansion?" Ye Xiaoyan was surprised.

She thought that Zhou Qianru had nowhere to stay, although she didn't like this cousin, she didn't think about driving her out of the palace. Before Nangong You said that she was asked to go back to the Zhou family, she thought that she was asking her to go to the Zhou family to seek refuge with some relatives, it turned out that she had her own house.

Nangong You said: "My uncle was the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple back then. Although he is gone, he left his family property to his cousin. ”

Ye Xiaoyan was stunned. It turns out that she herself is the proletariat! This cousin, who seems to be lonely, is actually much stronger than her.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaoyan was unhappy and said, "Then why does she still have to stay in the Xuanwang Mansion?" You also let her live for five years. ”

Nangong You said: "Anyway, it's not a big deal to raise one more person in the Xuanwang Mansion, I used to see that she was quite reasonable, so I didn't think about driving her back." ”

Ye Xiaoyan's face sank and said, "She has ulterior motives for you, can't you see it?" It's still there. ”

Nangong You pinched her little face and said with a smile: "If you hadn't quarreled, I really wouldn't have seen it." ”

Ye Xiaoyan slapped his hand away and said, "You like to watch me quarrel with people so much." ”

Nangong You said: "I like to see you jealous. ”

Ye Xiaoyan glanced at him and said, "Neurotic!"

Nangong You was used to being "neurotic" by her. There is no word "neurosis" in this world, Nangong You didn't understand what it meant at first, but after Ye Xiaoyan explained, he understood, and then he gradually understood, and this word was not too malicious, so when Ye Xiaoyan said that he was neurotic, he didn't care.

Nangong You said: "Let's go out of the house and take a walk!"

Ye Xiaoyan pointed to the wheelchair under her and said, "I can't walk." ”

Nangong You thought about it for a while, and said, "Then take a walk in the mansion, and I'll push you." ”

As he spoke, he pushed Ye Xiaoyan up and walked out of the main courtyard.

Ye Xiaoyan said: "Aren't you going to see how your sesame oil is doing?" ”

"yes, it's time to check it out." Nangong You said: "I don't know if I'm not there, whether they will be lazy." ”

Ye Xiaoyan smiled proudly and said: "I have formulated a set of incentives for them to take the initiative to develop sesame oil, and if the development is successful, the profits from sesame oil will be shared with them." If there are any follow-up contributions, they will be given an extra share. ”

Ye Xiaoyan stretched out two fingers, shook them in front of Nangong You, and said, "If they can sell 10,000 taels of silver in the future, they can get 2,000 taels, this incentive should be okay, right?" ”

Nangong You asked, "Do you want to develop it and sell it?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan said: "Otherwise? The palace is now unable to make ends meet, it is not open source, it is just throttling, it is useless. ”

Nangong You's mood was a little heavy, and he said, "I should worry about these things." ”

Ye Xiaoyan waved her hand and said, "Don't take any burden on yourself, we are husband and wife, and we will find a way together, and it will get better and better in the future." Besides, as a time-traveler, I have a great advantage. ”

Nangong You held her little face and pecked it, and said, "Well said! We're all working together as a husband and wife. ”

When I arrived at the west courtyard, I smelled a sesame fragrance as soon as I entered the courtyard gate. Now the people in the whole palace know that the prince is good and can walk, and they are all excited.

A cook came over with a small bowl, saluted, and said to Ye Xiaoyan happily: "Princess, it's done!" ”

In the past few days, Nangong You has been in a coma, and the sesame oil R&D team of the West Courtyard is mainly docking with Ye Xiaoyan.

Ye Xiaoyan took the bowl, which contained a small half bowl of sesame oil. She sniffed it and dipped her finger in it again. Sure enough, the mellow aroma is rich.

"Good! Reward! Ye Xiaoyan said happily.

He handed the small bowl to Nangong You and said, "You smell it, it's the smell!" ”

Nangong You also sniffed it, tasted it, and asked, "How do you eat this oil?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan said: "Sesame oil is used to make seasonings. Adding a little sesame oil to the dish can add a lot of flavor to the dish. ”

Nangong You asked, "According to what you say, can't you use it to fry potatoes?" ”

Ye Xiaoyan glanced at him and said, "Frying potatoes in sesame oil, what a waste!" That's with other oils. ”

Ye Xiaoyan turned her head and asked the cook: "I asked you to try it with peanuts, have you tried it?" ”

The cook nodded and said, "According to the princess's orders, we tried." Not only peanuts, but also barley we have tried. It's just that only peanuts can squeeze out the oil. ”

When Ye Xiaoyan heard Damai, she asked, "Damai, how did you try it?" ”

The cook said, "It's fried, it's steamed, it's boiled, it's not good." And the boiled wort tasted weird later. ”

Ye Xiaoyan heard it, okay! Wort fermentation, isn't this the prototype of beer? She was worried about what kind of wine to brew for Nangong You to taste. I wanted to make wine, but there is no such thing as grapes in this world.

"Take me over and have a look." Ye Xiaoyan said to the cook.

In the next few days, Ye Xiaoyan immersed herself in the west courtyard to develop "malt wine", and Nangong Youye came up with ideas together, which was very happy.

Sesame oil and peanut oil have been made in many ways. On this day, Ye Xiaoyan called the cook over and said:

"Dong Fu, how long have you been in the palace?"

The cook Dong Fu said: "Back to the princess, the slave was sent to the Xuanwang Mansion after the prince was injured. ”

"You were in the palace?" She heard Nangong You say that his cook was an imperial chef sent from the palace.

"Back to the princess, yes."

Ye Xiaoyan thought for a while and said, "This concubine has an important matter that I want to entrust to a trustworthy person to do. If this thing is done well, the future will be broad, and it will be a thousand times better than being an imperial chef. Concubine Ben thinks that you are the most suitable candidate, but I don't know, can Concubine Ben trust you? ”

Dong Fu hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Princess, when the slave leaves the palace, it is the person from the Xuanwang Mansion. The life and death of the slave are decided by the prince and the princess, and the slave swears allegiance to the princess and princess. ”

Although Ye Xiaoyan is not sure whether this person is reliable, but judging by his attitude towards doing things, he should be a trustworthy person. So he said:

"Okay, then I'll entrust you with all the authority to handle this matter."

A few days later, a shop on Ye Xiaoyan's dowry list opened its door to do business. The shopkeeper's surname is Dong, and the shop sign is called "Dong Ji". On the day of the opening, the smell of sesame seeds wafted through the streets, and the rich fragrance attracted many passers-by.

People thought it was a restaurant, but when they got closer, they saw rows of small bottles on the shelves, and the words "sesame oil" were written on the wooden signs.
