174. a formula
Xu Shu and the queen mother did not suspect anything, firstly, she felt that the queen had saved Xu Shu last time, and it was natural for Xu Shu's temperament to be close to the queen who had the grace of saving her life, and secondly, she also felt that the queen was close to Xu Shu because she looked at Xu Shu with blue eyes, so she was close to Xu Shu, also to please herself. The Empress Dowager still has plans for Xu Shu, and she is also happy to see the queen and Xu Shu coming and going, so as to raise Xu Shu's worth.
Back at Xu's house, Xu Shu counted the silver tickets given by the queen and found that there were a full 50,000 taels, and while marveling at the queen's generosity, she also secretly swore that the money would never be used, so she took a blessing word back pattern lacquer box and packed these silver tickets.
Treading Xue wanted to ask where the money came from, but Bangfeng shook her head at her, Taxue glared at Bangfeng, Bangfeng pouted aggrievedly, and said privately that she didn't know where the money came from, only that it came out of the palace, Taxue felt more and more that her own lady was wrong recently, first took care of the Song family's affairs that she had said about it, and now she suddenly didn't know where to take a large amount of money back, God knows what will happen next.
Although Luo Xi said that the marriage between the Luo family and the Lu family had been agreed, Xu Shu still asked Bangfeng to ask Lin Da to inquire, and when he learned that it was indeed scheduled for next spring, he was completely relieved, just waiting to watch the show.
In addition to asking Lin Da to inquire about the Lu family and the Luo family, Xu Shu also asked Lin Da to buy some strange things back, and these things were not sent to Shulin Pavilion, but directly to Peach Blossom Villa, and began to pack up his things and prepare to go to Zhuangzi.
Xu Shu was going to Peach Blossom Villa again, and Li Shi wondered when he learned about it, seeing that the winter solstice was coming, why did he still go? Although she is in favor of Xu Shu going to Zhuangzi for recuperation, such frequent travel is not a good thing for Xu Shu's body!
It's just that Xu Shu insisted on going, and Xu Ting also followed to help, so Li had no choice but to agree.
When she arrived at Peach Blossom Villa, Xu Shu drove Taxue and the others out of the yard where she lived, and even allowed three meals a day to be delivered to the door, and no one was allowed to enter the yard, locking herself in the house alone to tinker with the pile of things that Lin Da bought, the whole yard was filled with an indescribable smell, and from time to time I heard all kinds of strange noises, as well as the occasional flash of firelight, which frightened the people who were surrounding the courtyard outside the courtyard to be frightened every day.
Xu Shu locked himself in the courtyard in order to study the formula of the flying fire bomb, and Da Yin studied it for several years and finally developed the flying fire bomb, which can be used on the front line to attack the city and kill the enemy from a long distance, with infinite power, more than ten times greater than the lethality of the bow and arrow, and of course there are countless people who covet it, but Da Yin is also very well guarded.
There were many people involved in the development, but each person was only responsible for a part of it, and then another person who only obeyed the emperor's orders was responsible for the mixing experiment, and recorded the ratio of various materials, that is, the formula of the flying fire bomb.
At the beginning, Zhuang left the treasury to steal the formula of the flying fire bomb, but he didn't steal it, Xu Shu promised Zhuang Li to help him get the formula of the flying fire bomb, but the flying fire bomb was taken away by Zhou Jin, and Xu Shu could only find another way. She weighed the weight of the flying fire bomb, smelled the smell of the explosion of the flying fire bomb, and could tell which materials it was made of, and now she had to determine the proportion of various materials, so she had to hide in Zhuangzi to do experiments, and she was afraid that the wrong ratio would hurt people, so she drove everyone else out.
Although the formula was proportionally reduced, Xu Shu still caused the whole yard a lot of harm, and when she finally determined the final recipe, the entire yard was already full of desolation, and when Taxue and the others were finally allowed to come in, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.
This is not as good as when I was in Xu's house, the yard was originally full of flowers and trees, but now I can't even see the shadow of a leaf, only the black stumps of the burned trees are left in the yard, and the ground is full of potholes, and even the doors and windows of the main house have not been spared, and most of them have been blackened.
Taxue almost wanted to cry without tears, her worries were really not unreasonable, and the young lady's behavior became more and more unbelievable.
It's just that when I saw Xu Shu, I found that Xu Shu was in a radiant and good spirit, and with a wave of her jade hand, "Find someone to clean up the yard, I'll live in another place!" ”
Taxue covered his nose and said, "Miss, you better take a shower and change your clothes first!" ”
Xu Shu lifted her sleeve and sniffed it, but before she got closer, an indescribable strange smell came to her nose, and she immediately let go in disgust, "Prepare water, I want to bathe!" ”
While stepping on the snow, people paved another yard for Xu Shu to rest, while letting people prepare hot water, and arranging craftsmen to repair the bombed yard beyond recognition, they were very busy.
Xu Shu is completely idle!
The debt she owes is finally paid!
After a few days, the Li family finally sent someone to invite, tomorrow is the day of the Qi family's stove banquet, and it is time to go to the Qi family.
Xu Shu took a long breath, and the originally leisurely mood turned cloudy, and she didn't say anything for a long time.
Xue Ying looked at Xu Shu's face, didn't understand what Xu Shu meant, and looked up at Treadxue for help.
Taxue knew that Xu Shu didn't want to go back, so she said, "Miss originally said that she would enter the palace on the winter solstice, so she wouldn't go to the Rongguo Mansion, but now although she doesn't need to enter the palace, she has already said something like that before, so it's not good to go to the Qi family again, so as not to be laughed at and talk doesn't count!" ”
I was worried about this!
Xue Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay!" Yesterday, the Rongguo Mansion specially sent an old lady to invite Miss Jiu, saying that Mrs. Qi missed Miss Nine very much, and also sent a lot of clothes and jewelry, saying that it was Mrs. Qi's heart, since the Qi family was so sincere, Mrs. Jiu said how could Miss Nine thank Mrs. Qi for this piece of heart! ”
Is it the meaning of Mrs. Qi, or the meaning of the Li family?
Xu Shu didn't want to dig deeper, so she let out a faint "um", but still maintained her previous posture, holding her head and "looking" out of the window.
Xue Ying didn't know that Xu Shu's "um" meant that she knew? Or did he say that he wanted to go back to the Qi family's winter solstice banquet? I couldn't help but look at the snow again.
Treading Xue ignored her this time, but saw that Xu Shu's hands were a little white, so he took a hand stove to Xu Shu.
Xu Shu put the stove on her face to warm it for a moment, and suddenly asked, "What did Mrs. Qi send over?" ”
Xue Ying and Ta Xue were stunned, Xu Shu had never cared about this before, but Xue Ying didn't pay attention to what Mrs. Qi had sent, and said, "The thing was collected by Madame, and the slave didn't see it, but I just heard Mingxiu say that there seemed to be a set of gold and emerald heads......
Xue Ying stopped abruptly, Mingxiu was in charge of Li's jewelry and other valuables, since Mingxiu saw this thing, didn't it mean that the Li family had this set of heads and faces for themselves? Then she mentioned it again at this moment, isn't it...... Xue Ying repented and couldn't wait to give herself a mouth immediately, so she had to run to Zhuangzi!
"Oh!" Xu Shu replied lightly, and said after a while, "Then go back!" Step on the snow, pack up, let's go back! ”
