Chapter 132: Thirteen Incense Blends

Shen Mengxi flipped her wrist, a teacup appeared in her hand, she took a cup of water directly from the waterhole and drank it, and immediately felt refreshed. Walking into the garden, she now learns that the flowers in the garden are rare, most of them are extinct in modern times. I don't know which of the previous owners of the space planted these flowers, in her impression, these flowers can be used to make incense, make rouge powder, I think it should be a woman.

Shen Mengxi has never been interested in this kind of vassal elegance, and feels that it is a waste of time, and she can read a lot of books with that effort. Thinking of this, Shen Mengxi turned around and went back to the embroidery building, and went directly to the study to find the book with the thirteen spice formula. Then, Shen Mengxi walked to the back of the bookcase and completely copied the recipe of the thirteen incense in the book.

Shen Mengxi saw those flowers in the garden just now, and then remembered that there were a lot of spices for making incense in a certain room on the first floor, she took the copied recipe and went to the first floor again, and found a small medicine cabinet in the second room on the left hand of the door, and each small drawer had the name of a spice written on it. Shen Mengxi took the recipe and compared it, and successfully found several spices needed to mix the thirteen spices. Shen Mengxi opened the corresponding drawer on the medicine cabinet and saw that it was full of that kind of spice, and it seemed to be of excellent quality.

Shen Mengxi was happy in his heart, but after thinking about it, all kinds of spices were found, but how to take out these spices and appear in front of people? These spices are very expensive on the market, how can she justify herself?

Shen Mengxi thought about it, and planned to try to mix some according to the recipe in her hand first, if she could successfully mix it, she would first ask the Wu family to mix out the thirteen spices without spices, and then she was secretly adding these spices.

Shen Mengxi walked out of the space, quietly walked out of the door, and listened carefully after standing still, there was no movement in the upper room and the east room, so she tiptoed into the kitchen, found out the medicinal materials she bought back today, took out a small scale for weighing spices from the space, and weighed all kinds of medicinal materials according to the dosage in the recipe. Then he restored the herbs to their original state and quickly returned to his room.

After entering the space again, Shen Mengxi weighed the spices he needed, found a set of tools for making incense, took the prepared things back to the study and began to mix thirteen incense.

She first grinds each herb and spice into a powder, then pours the powder into a jar in the same way as the recipe above, and then stirs it well. Shen Mengxi scooped some out with a small spoon and sniffed it, then licked some with the tip of his tongue and put it into his mouth to taste it. Well, not bad! That's the smell!

Shen Mengxi is very proud of his achievements, but it is easy to make thirteen incense, but it is not so easy to keep the recipe and use it to make money for his own family. Just relying on the fame of the two talents of the Shen family can't keep such a weapon to make money, even if Shen Zhixin can successfully pass the Jinshi next year, he can't only find a reliable backer for his family.

Shen Mengxi thought of her uncle who was now in Bianjing City, but she knew very little about her uncle's situation, and she didn't know if he had such ability. The point is that it seems that the uncle is very angry with the Shen family, and listening to the meaning of the Wu family's words, the uncle's family does not move around with the Shen family at all except for the three of them when they send people to give some gifts on the birthdays of their brothers and sisters. As for the reason, Wu did not say it explicitly, and Shen Mengxi guessed that it should have something to do with Shen Zhixin's marriage to Xiao Cui's during the Fu family's filial piety period.

Next month is her and Shen Mengxu's third birthday, she thinks that her uncle's house will definitely come, and then she can find a chance to test it, contact her uncle, and it would be best to meet her!
