After eating, when he returned to the Hou Mansion, Shi Qingqian was carrying a large bag again.

Shi Yuan had already returned, and when he saw Shi Qingqi, he asked, "Did you go out to dinner with the little prince today?" ”

Shi Qingqian raised the pastry in his hand and said with a smile: "Yes, daddy and mother, come and try this, it's really delicious!" It's just that I've eaten too much...... I can't eat it. ”

In fact, before Shi Qingqian came back, Shi Yuan and the eldest lady had already had dinner, but seeing Shi Qingqian so excited to share with them, they were unwilling to hit her, so Shi Yuan pinched out a piece of pastry from the brown paper and broke it in half. Half of it was handed to the eldest lady, and she stuffed the remaining half into her mouth in one gulp.

"Hmm...... It's really delicious! Shi Yuan sighed with a smile as he chewed.

The eldest lady also tasted it, but her movements were much gentler than Shi Yuan's, she took a small bite, nodded and said, "It's really good, but don't eat too much, such a sweet thing, beware of tooth decay." ”

Hearing this, Shi Yuan and Shi Qingqian looked at each other and smiled, "Your mother...... It's a worrying fate. ”

Shi Qingqian also smiled and nodded secretly.

"By the way, Xiao'er, Xiao Wang Ye Shen should have told you too, right? Fifteen days later, at the palace banquet, the emperor specially asked you to make a medicinal meal. ”

Hearing this, Shi Qingqi became sad, she scratched her head, sighed and said, "Alas...... You know, the emperor is really embarrassed for me, where can the things I make compare to those in the imperial dining room? Isn't that clearly asking me to make a fool of myself......"

"Don't think so," Shi Yuan smiled and patted Shi Qingqian's head casually, "Your medicinal food tastes really good, I feel like I want to eat it again after eating it with your mother." You have to be confident......"

Although Shi Yuan said so, Shi Qingqian still couldn't settle down.

She did cook medicinal food for Shi Yuan and the eldest lady, and they thought it tasted good after eating it, but that time it was also because she wanted to condition their bodies.

There were so many people on the day of this palace banquet, not to mention that she didn't understand everyone's physical condition, but she could be unified, how much did she have to do?

Seeing that Shi Qingqian still had a sad face, Shi Yuan stroked his beard and said, "Qi'er has always been good at being unconventional, if you use a little dim sum, I believe it will be able to make people's eyes shine." ”

"Daddy doesn't know, it's not difficult to make medicinal diets...... Shi Qingqian sighed, "The difficult thing is that whether it's medicinal diet or whatever, you have to treat the symptoms, the emperor's dragon body is expensive, if you eat something wrong, it is easy to cause many subsequent diseases." ”

If she deliberately entered the palace to diagnose the emperor's pulse for the sake of this medicinal diet, although it was not impossible, what about other people? She can't just run to everyone's homes and diagnose them one by one, right?

"Or, is there a herb that has little effect?" The eldest lady asked, "Or maybe it's something that's more useful to most people?" ”

After the eldest lady asked, Shi Qingqian reacted suddenly, yes-

Who said that medicinal diets can only be used to cure diseases? There are so many health care products in modern times, although health care products should not be eaten too much, but at least they are more widely used than drugs.

"Mother! You're so smart! Shi Qingqian jumped up excitedly, swooped over and hugged the eldest lady, "My mother's words really woke me up completely!" ”

Although I don't know where to 'wake up' Shi Qingqian, the eldest lady is still very happy to be needed by Shi Qingqian like this, she quickly patted Shi Qingqian's back, "Okay, good, my nephew is really smart, my mother believes that you will be able to make a satisfying medicinal diet!" ”

"Hmm!" Shi Qingqian was a little excited in her heart, she had been worrying about this matter, but once she thought about it again, she really had a transparent feeling of 'the mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village', "Then, daddy and mother, go back and study it first!" ”

"Okay, let's go." Shi Yuan smiled and nodded hurriedly.

Shi Qingqian quickly ran back to Baoyue Courtyard, for fear that his idea of a flash of inspiration would be forgotten, so he hurriedly found a pen and paper and wrote it down.

"Miss, what are you writing about......" Xue Ying came over curiously and went to see what Shi Qingqian had written on the paper, "Rich Peony...... Peony flower ...... Can you eat it too? ”

"Poofhahahaha...... Of course not! Shi Qingqian was amused by Xue Ying's stupid appearance, poked her face, and explained, "Although it is called 'peony', it is not really a peony flower, I think, you can use angelica fruit to carve it into the shape of a peony flower, and then. Pickle, marinate for about ten days, it will be red, and it looks good when you take it out! ”

"Wow, miss, you know too much, don't you?"

Shi Qingqian smiled shyly.

In fact, this is also a dish she had eaten in her previous life, because it looked particularly good-looking, so she also learned how to make it, but I didn't expect it to be really useful one day.

Because the longer this thing is pickled, the more beautiful the color will be, so Shi Qingqian decided to start working on it quickly. Although it was getting late, there was still a cook in the dining room of the Hou Mansion, just for fear that someone would have to eat supper.

It just so happened that there were still a lot of Angelica Angelica in the Hou Mansion, and after Shi Qingqian and Xue Ying took it, they went to the dining room.

"Huh? Da Zhou, Xiao Wang, you haven't rested yet? When he arrived at the dining room, Shi Qingqian saw his two cooks sitting on a small bench, chatting about something while munching melon seeds.

Seeing that it was Shi Qingqian, the two of them hurriedly stood up. The fat cook named Dazhou smiled and said, "Miss, are you hungry?" Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you! ”

"It's not that I'm hungry, it's that I have something to ask you for." Shi Qingqian smiled.

"If there's anything you want, just say hello!" The smaller man named Xiao Wang said.

Shi Qingqian waved his hand and asked Xue Ying to take a small frame of Bai Zhi, "Can you carve this fruit into the shape of a peony?" I'm going to use it at the palace banquet in half a month. ”

"No problem! You can rest assured! ”

The chefs of the Hou Mansion are naturally good at cooking, and it is not a problem to carve flowers. The two of them were nimble with their hands and feet, and soon carved several flowers.

Shi Qingqian found another big jar, added the things that needed to be used one by one, poured them on the angelica flowers, and finally carefully sealed his mouth.

"Okay, let's put this here first, don't open it, when the palace banquet comes, it will definitely look good!"

After explaining what to do, Shi Qingqian left with Xue Ying.

In the dead of night, even the dining room was closed, but suddenly a figure appeared. climbed in from the window and directly opened the jar that Shi Qingqian had made.

put something in it, followed Shi Qingqian's example and resealed his mouth, and turned around and left.
