CHAPTER XXXIV
Early the next morning, Su Jinan took advantage of the fact that the weather was not yet hot, and after reporting to Mrs. Su, he went out of Su Mansion with Su Murong and went to Linlang Pavilion to hunt for treasures.
It was early in the summer day, Su Jinan wanted to come back before he warmed up at noon, and he urged Su Murong to come out after breakfast was useless, although it was still early, there were already more people on the street. After Su Murong returned to Beijing, he also got acquainted with some young men of the same age, and he had walked through the streets of the capital, he took Su Jinan to a small restaurant with a good reputation for breakfast, this small restaurant is called Zhao's noodle soup, Su Murong found a table where no one sat down, he knew that Su Jinan didn't like green onions, and said to the boss: "Boss, two bowls of noodle soup, no green onions, two Hu cakes." β
"Okay, wait a minuteβ"
"Third sister, this noodle soup is the most delicious breakfast on this street, you must like it." Su Murong looks like I know you very well.
"Yes, it seems that you already know everything about the capital." Su Jinan teased Su Murong.
Su Murong scratched his head a little embarrassedly: "I don't know anything about it, I just followed a few friends around." β
Su Jinan didn't say anything, of course a boy can't be like a little girl, she is very happy to see that Su Murong can quickly integrate into the circle of the capital.
After a while, the owner of the small restaurant came over with a tray with a smile: "Come on-the soup noodles and Hu cakes for the two of you, use them slowly." β
Su Jin'an smiled and said thank you, and when the boss saw Su Jin'an, he knew that she was not an ordinary girl, so he hurriedly said a word and retreated.
Su Jinan took a sip of the soup first, felt very comfortable, tasted the Hu cake again, and nodded: "The place you are looking for is really good, it is my taste." β
Su Murong stuffed the cake in his mouth and said a little vaguely: "Yes, I know that you will definitely like it." β
After eating and drinking, the two of them went to Linlang Pavilion. Due to the early arrival today, there were no guests when he came to Linlang Pavilion, so Uncle Qing personally took Su Jinan and Su Murong to choose gifts in the compartment.
Uncle Qing pointed to a black bead the size of a pigeon's egg and glowing dark green and said, "Miss, childe, this is a black pearl from the South China Sea, which is very rare." Pointing to the jade carving next to him, he said: "This jade cabbage is from the hands of a famous artist, the carving is exquisite, and it is very suitable to give it away." β
"There are also this pair of vases from the Ru kiln, which are the best in porcelain."
"Ahh
After listening to Uncle Qing's words, Su Murong circled around the pot several times: "Hey, third sister, this pot is interesting, I like it, or I'll choose it." β
"Okay, then ask someone to wrap it up for you." Since Su Murong has taken a fancy to it, Su Jinan naturally has no opinion.
"Third sister, what about you? Which one to choose? Or that cabbage? β
Su Jin'an glanced at him: "If you don't send jade cabbage, I'll send that pot." β
Su Murong's eyes widened: "That's what I saw first, how can you win people's love?" β
Su Jin'an sighed helplessly: "Alas, there is no way, who made me the boss-"
Su Murong was speechless for a while by his third sister's tone of 'what can you do with me', and Su Jinan laughed on the side: "Forget it, for your pitiful sake, I won't rob you." β
Su Jin'an picked in the room again, but never found what he thought was suitable, and finally, Su Jin'an said to Uncle Qing: "Uncle Qing, wrap the pair of vases from Ruyao for me first." β
"Okay, wait a minute."
On the way back, Su Murong couldn't help but ask Su Jin'an: "Third sister, you will give someone a pair of vases when the second prince gets married, isn't it a little ...... Stingy. β
Su Jinan said lightly: "Who said I was going to give it to him." β
"Ah-sister, you don't even give a vase, I think the second prince is very good to you, why are you reluctant to give congratulatory gifts even for other people's weddings." Su Murong couldn't believe it, could it be that his third sister had already lost her wealth to this extent?
Su Jinan raised his hand and patted Su Murong's head: "Am I such a stingy person?" I just haven't figured out what to send yet. β
Su Murong rubbed the place where he was beaten: "Oh, then what do you want that pair of vases for?" β
"I'll keep it for myself, can't I?"
"Okay, okay, the third sister can do anything."
After returning home, Su Murong took the nine-turn streamer pot to find Su Muyang.
Su Jinan was a little worried when she returned to the courtyard, and said to Xia Qu: "Xia Qu, what do you think I should give to Rong Chengyi as a gift?" I don't think that's appropriate. β
"This-slave maid can't say it well, the second prince doesn't lack anything, and this gift is a little difficult to choose."
"yes, it's hard to chooseβ"
Su Jin'an thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with it, until in the evening, Zizhu brought a message to Su Jin'an: "Miss, there is movement over there in the Lin Mansion." β
Su Jinan sat up suddenly: "What's the matter?" β
"It's Lin Wenguo, he spent a lot of money to invite someone to go to Qizhi Mountain in the suburbs to collect medicine."
"Herbs? What medicine? β
"I heard that it's called 'Nine Dead Soul Rejuvenation Grass', but I haven't inquired about anything else yet."
"Heh, the ability is not small, but who wants to use this Nine Dead Soul Restoration Grass?"
"Miss, what should we do then?"
Su Jinan leaned against the window, looking at the hot weather outside, and said a little distractedly: "We have a gift for Rong Chengyi." β
"What does Miss mean...... Shall we also grab the 'Nine Dead Soul Rejuvenation Grass' and give it to the second prince as a congratulatory gift? β
"That's right, Zizhu's brain is getting better and better."
Zizhu ignored Su Jin'an's quip, she was very excited now, and it was finally time for her to show her skills: "Miss, when are we going to do it, tonight?"
Su Jinan listened to Zizhu's question, and she decided to put away the words that had just praised her: "Zizhu, do you know that the 'Nine Dead Soul Grass' grows on the side of Qizhi Mountain?" Do you know when Lin Wenguo goes? More importantly, who told him about the "Nine Dead Soul Grass"? β
Zizhu lowered her head a little frustrated after hearing this: "Yes, or what the young lady said is right, the slave maid will go to investigate, and he must be found out clearly." β
Su Jinan waved her hand: "Go, one is safe." β
Nine Dead Soul Rejuvenation Grass, Su Jin'an hadn't heard this name for many years, the name of this flavor medicine sounded very domineering, but in fact it was indeed very domineering. This grass can be eaten or ornamental, but also medicinal, when used medicinally, it is a powerful anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drug, as well as the effect of repairing functional damage, many doctors are very fond of it.
However, this flavor medicine also has a role, that is, strengthening yin and improving essence, Su Jinan doesn't know where Lin Wenguo learned about this flavor medicine, but with her, he will never let him get his wish.
