"My dear, I'm back! Miss me! ”

Ji Xiaoran exaggeratedly pushed open the door of the dormitory, and the bag hanging on her wrist swayed from side to side, but only Miao Ziling had a gorgeous white eye to greet her, "The play is a bit too much." ”

Pouting, Ji Xiaoran put the bag in his hand on his desk, took out his mobile phone and glanced at the time, "It's not more than 5 o'clock, and they are going to eat?" ’’

"I guess I'm going out to buy something." Miao Ziling came over, opened the lunch box in the bag, and picked a piece from several shapes of biscuits, "At noon, Lu Yao found a very interesting shop, so he kept saying that he wanted to go and see it. ”

"What do you have to go to on a Monday? Aren't there still classes to be held in the evening? ”

"I didn't pay much attention to the name, but I think I saw it on an urban forum."

"Urban legend again?" Ji Xiaoran raised his right eyebrows, "This is a problem with the gossip, right?" An Ran also accompanied her? ”

In fact, the weather is very good today, and it finally faded a few days before the rain for half a month, and the sun is shining, finally bringing the warmth of spring to the city.

In the old part of the city, there are not many old houses left. The bluestone slabs that pave the pavement have been polished by the footsteps of pedestrians over the years. Most of the low-rise houses facing the street are used as shop fronts, selling all kinds of goods.

"Lao Liu's home-cooked food?"

Lu Yao looked at the navigation on her phone, and then glanced at the two-story wooden house in front of her with "chili fried beef" and "pineapple sweet and sour pork ribs" hanging at the door, and frowned slightly, "What kind of broken navigation is this?" ”

"Lu Yao, it should be this." Du Anran stood at the entrance of the alley next to the home-cooked restaurant and pointed inside.

Lu Yao walked over, only to see that there was a door open on the side of the house, and an old plaque was hung above the wooden door, which read "Shanhai Pavilion".

"Welcome." Ji Cheng, who was bored with his mobile phone, looked up at the two girls who pushed the door in, and looked at some familiar faces that made him a little surprised.

"Hello." Lu Yao said hello to the boss and looked at the things in the store. I thought it was a small piece of private vegetable shop, but I didn't expect the area of the store to be quite large. The antique layout, coupled with the objects placed on the pear blossom wood partition that seemed to be expensive, made Lu Yao believe what he said on the forum a little more.

Du Anran, who came in behind Lu Yao, timidly greeted the boss, and followed behind Lu Yao, who was looking around.

Ji Cheng looked at the two girls slightly, "In addition to these old gadgets as decorations, there are actually many things that are suitable for carrying in the store." Ji turned his wheelchair and moved to a display case, "These are the special sachets of our store, in addition to different light fragrances, they also have the effects of refreshing, soothing, and repelling insects." ”

The two walked up to the boss. The display cases are indeed full of exquisite sachets, embroidered with various patterns on brocade cloth. Delicate stitching and colorful silk threads make each flower feel like the real thing. There are also incense sachets embroidered with all kinds of birds and animals, looking at them, but always feel that the next moment they will be detached from the brocade cloth.

Unlike Du Anran, who couldn't take his eyes off it, Lu Yao just glanced at it twice, and then looked at Ji Ying, "Boss, I heard that you will sell some strange things here." ”

"I think everything in my store is quite peculiar." Ji Cheng raised his hand and gestured to the items displayed in the store, "Basically, you won't see them in other stores." ”

Lu Yao scanned the things in the store with his eyes again and shook his head, "I've seen people say in some posts that the things you have here are amazing, such as a wallet that can't be burned by fire, and incense that can restore the health of a dying person. ”

Ji Cheng spread his hands, "The wallet made of asbestos can't be burned, and as for the poor health, I recommend going to the hospital." ”

Lu Yao was a little dissatisfied with the boss's answer, took out his mobile phone and slid it a few times, found the post he saw at noon, and handed it to the boss, "In this post, it is said that his grandfather is not in good health and almost died the year before last, and it was you who sold him a stick of incense and let his grandfather survive." ”

Ji Cheng looked at the familiar address in the post, his eyes darkened, he raised his hand and clicked on Lu Yao's mobile phone, and quickly looked at the content of the post and some of the replies below, "I know the old man mentioned in this, but he borrowed a bird from me." It did come with a stick of incense, but it wasn't meant to heal. Ji Cheng raised his eyes and looked at Lu Yao, "That's for insect repellent." ”

The white mobile phone screen was reflected in the boss's eyes, giving Lu Yao the illusion of seeing a blood-colored ghost in his eyes. With a slight shake in her hand, Lu Yao hurriedly pressed the power button to turn off the phone screen, "Then I'm sorry to bother." ”

"It's fine." Ji Cheng spread his hands, "After all, I'm here to sell old things, and there will always be some strange rumors." But don't you really think about sachets? It's not as fashionable as a perfume, but it's still worth a try. ”

"Not today, I'm going back to school now, and I'll come back if there's a need." As he spoke, Lu Yao pulled Du Anran, who was looking at the sachet seriously, "Anran, let's go." ”

Du Anran looked at Lu Yao, who seemed to have a trace of impatience on his face, and swallowed his saliva, "Wait a little longer, I want to buy a sachet......"

Hearing this, Lu Yao frowned, and turned around and left directly, "Then I'll wait for you outside, you hurry up." ”

Ji Cheng had a faint smile on his face, opened the drawer below, and with the sudden gushing fragrance, a small glass box containing dried flowers and withered grass was displayed in front of Du Anran, "There are absolutely rich choices here." Regular lilies, osmanthus, plum blossoms, camellias, lavender, or finer categories, such as palace powder, jade butterfly. You can also make a blend according to your preference. Or if you want to bring some functionality, such as soothing the nerves, helping you sleep and repellent mosquitoes, you can make it according to your needs. ”

As he spoke, Ji Ying pointed to those delicate sachet bags again, "The customized fragrance type with the unique cloth bag will definitely allow you to have a unique sachet." ”

"Reading novels, there are spices that can make people involuntarily attracted. Can you make that? ”

Du Anran said such a sentence as a ghost, and immediately reacted, his face flushed, "I just said it casually, don't mind ......"

Ji Cheng carefully looked at the guest in front of him, and estimated that he was about eighteen years old, dressed very decently, not the kind of stunning beauty, but he belonged to the category of plain and elegant, giving people a comfortable feeling. Although she behaves a little submissively, judging from the situation she has behaved since she entered the store, she should still be a girl with a good family background.

"Do you have a boy you like?"

Listening to the tone, it was like a question, but the affirmative expression made Du Anran feel hot on his face, "Yes...... But I'm not here for that! Du Anran twisted his clothes a little nervously, "I'm not very good at communicating with strangers, so it's been almost a year since I entered the university, and I haven't made a few friends......"

"So, you want someone to come and be your friend?"

Ji Cheng picked out a glass box, took out a dried flower from it and put it in Du Anran's palm. The goose-yellow six-petal flower, a small one, exudes an indescribable sweet fragrance. Du Anran sniffed carefully, but felt that his nose was a little sour, and a thin mist rose from his eyes.

"You can't smell this directly." Ji Cheng stretched out his hand to cover the dried flowers and pressed down the girl's hand, watching the trance eyes regain focus, "Mixing it into the flowers and plants that are low fragrance can achieve the effect you want to some extent." ”

"But...... This is a special product, and the price will be relatively high. ”

"How much?"

"Five hundred, and special goods, only cash is accepted." Ji Cheng looked at the girl calmly, "If you want to bag the cloth, you need to add another hundred." And I need to state that the sachet is not guaranteed to produce immediate results. ”

It's really not cheap to buy a sachet for five hundred. Du Anran visually inspected it, and it is estimated that a pouch can hold about 10 grams of contents. But she nodded decisively: after all, the price was still affordable for her.

Now that Si Jing decided to buy it, Du Anran took out his wallet directly from his bag, took out six banknotes, and handed them to Ji Cheng, "Boss, take a look." ”

Ji Ying glanced at it, put the money directly on his lap, and took out a small porcelain plate out of nowhere, "So what kind of flavor do you want?" ”

"Is bergamot okay?" Du Anran doesn't have much research on fragrance, but she has a perfume, and although she doesn't use it much, the freshness of the top notes of bergamot makes people feel good.

Ji was stunned, and then opened another drawer, which was filled with glass boxes that appeared to contain various dried fruits. After a quick confirmation, Ji Ying shook his head, "I'm sorry, I don't have bergamot here right now." Is bergamot OK? ”

A small cup-shaped flower was placed in Du Anran's hand. The four-petaled triangular petals are purple on the outside but white on the inside.

"The flavor of bergamot will be clearer, and the sweetness can be better hidden than the sweetness of bergamot. I can mix some more sage. ”

Du Anran nodded and put the bergamot flower into the small porcelain plate, "When can I get it?" ”

"Immediately." Ji Cheng took out a piece of paper and handed it to Du Anran, "You go and fill in the personal information, you need to keep it on file when you buy special goods in our store." ”

In the interval between Du Anran's signature, Ji Chengsi picked out the materials he needed: three yellow flowers, nine purple flowers, one star red, a few pieces of sage, and some agarwood sawdust. The ingredients are finely mashed in a pale green glazed abrasive bowl and then sealed into white silk bags.

"You can pick and choose the suit you like."

"Is there any embroidery of that yellow flower?"

"There are no flowers, but there is a related one."

Du Anran found the sachet bag he described according to the location given by Ji Cheng. I saw a dancing woman embroidered on the square inch of cloth, with a fluttering skirt, dancing hair, and the hanging beads that swayed and collided with the dance.

"That's it." Du Anran actually doesn't like this kind of thing with character patterns on weekdays, but the woman on this sachet makes people can't take their eyes off it at a glance: it is obviously a fairy dance, but it makes people feel charming and sad mixed with it.

Ji Cheng took off the pouch, put the capsule directly, and tied the mouth of the bag, "Just carry it with you." The capsule can be taken out and kneaded every 15 days to help the fragrance spread. ”
