As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late.
Even if I have to take something from Prince Xian's Mansion to pay off the debt, it's not today.
But it was not without success. After all, he successfully transferred his father-in-law to Anding County to be the county magistrate... ahem, the county magistrate.
If my father-in-law is allowed to be promoted on his own...even if it has to wait until the end of the Year of the Monkey.
People like my father-in-law, who are poor and don't know how to flatter Shangguan, may have to stay in Yong'an County for a long time before they can continue to move up unless they have some unexpected encounters.
Although I lost three businesses...
To be careful, it can't be considered a loss, because Xu Qing has long planned to open these related shops to make money, and strive to live a retired life by the age of twenty.
Now we are only three years away from turning 20, and there is still a long way to go!
When Xu Qing left Prince Xian's Mansion and walked home, he saw Milk in a shop, which was a pastry shop.
In Dachu, nutritional concepts such as meat, eggs, and milk have indeed become popular. Cow's milk and goat's milk are not rare items in Dachu.
Not to mention drinking milk, there are even some simple dairy products and cakes sold in shops.
Although Dachu was not as wealthy as Zhao, it was peaceful and stable in recent years, the emperor worked hard to govern, and the people lived a prosperous life. They could eat meat and eggs for a few days without any pressure.
Only a small number of poor people still eat mostly vegetarian food on weekdays, and only during the holidays are they willing to eat meat.
To put it bluntly, if a wise king becomes emperor, he may not be able to do better than his younger brother.
Not to mention Dachu, even in Xu Qing's time, people started drinking milk to make dairy products very early in history.
Xu Qing can also think of a poem by Yang Wanli: ""Snow, leek, frost, and rice are harvested every year, and there is no milk or crisp."
It can be seen that as early as the Song Dynasty, milk was already very popular.
But it’s just limited to drinking milk. Killing the cow alive to eat its meat? That’s unthinkable!
We don't have the technology of Prince Xian's Mansion to make cows fall to death anytime and anywhere, so let's be more honest.
In the end, Xu Qing spent money to buy five kilograms of raw milk and planned to go back and make toffee for Su Qian.
The taste of rock candy is too monotonous and a bit hard, but toffee is more delicious, soft and chewy, and full of milky flavor.
After buying milk, Xu Qing was almost chased out by the red-faced proprietress with a mallet, just because when buying milk, she said: "What on earth did you milk sellers do to the cows..."
He was just curious to ask what happened? He had not yet asked the more curious question - what on earth did the first person who drank milk do to the cow...
This is a very scary question to think about.
…
It's night, Prince Xian's Mansion
In the study
King Xian was writing a letter. Princess Xian put a bowl of tea in King Xian's hand, looked at King Xian and said: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to bed according to the hour."
The wise king nodded and said, "I will go to bed after my husband finishes writing this letter."
Princess Xian asked curiously: "Letter?"
The Xian Wang said: "Today Xu Qing came to see my husband and wanted him to transfer his father-in-law to his fiefdom. The Yong'an County Magistrate has fulfilled his duties during his tenure and repeatedly solved strange cases. It's time for him to do something about it. I want my husband to go to the emperor."
Write a letter and ask him to draft an imperial edict."
Princess Xian was surprised and said: "Xu Qing's father-in-law? Aren't they in a fake marriage? Now that Yongzhou Sima has been found guilty of corruption and sent into exile, I thought the drama between Xu Qing and the Su family would have ended here."
The wise king smiled and said: "My husband sees that Xu Qing has been in love with the daughter of the Su family for a long time. The princess didn't know it. When she came, my husband asked him why he didn't come in the morning. The princess knew that he
Did you say something?"
Princess Xian asked: "I don't know what Xu Qing said, how dare you shirk the prince's invitation."
The Xian Wang said: "He said that he wanted to coax the lady to drink medicine in the morning, and he also had to feed her herself, so he couldn't come in the morning. It seems that Xu Qing has a deep affection for the daughter of the Su family."
Princess Xian smiled and said: "There is also this matter. The youngest viscount of Da Chu coaxed her into giving medicine. The daughter of the Su family is so lucky that she can really make Xu Qing fall in love with her."
King Xian said: "The princess only saw Xu Qing's infatuation, but she didn't know that that day Xue'er recklessly kidnapped Xu Qing and went up the mountain. His wife searched for him for a whole day and night. I heard from Ye'er that in order to find Xu Qing, she even
He did not hesitate to fight with more than a dozen royal family generals, and then his body was severely exhausted, and he was seriously ill and fell unconscious. If Xu Qing could not fall in love with a woman who even risked her life for him, then Xu Qing would have gone too far.
A bit hard-hearted."
Princess Xian couldn't help being slightly startled when she heard these words. She would risk her life to find her husband. It turned out that it was not only Xu Qing who was infatuated but also the daughter of the Su family.
With such an experience, it’s no wonder that a talented person like Xu Qing is so attracted to her.
…
In just one day, Xu Qing made the toffee and named it White Rabbit.
Su Qian likes to eat it very much, and she always puts a piece of it in her mouth every time she drinks medicine.
For a period of time after that, Xu Qing took care of Su Qian wholeheartedly at home. However, Su Qian's fever had gone away and her cold was gone, but she felt weak and still a little sleepy.
He still needs to be fed when eating and taking medicine. When he has nothing to do, he likes to sleep in Xu Qing’s arms.
Xu Qing and Magistrate Su invited many doctors but could not figure out the reason.
His complexion is rosy, his body is healthy, his pulse is stable, and his pulse is strong, but his body cannot use the strength, and he is still a little lethargic on weekdays.
What kind of disease is this? Many doctors said they have never seen it, not to mention they have never heard of it!
If you feel unwell, should you give some indication of your pulse and complexion?
However, he didn't show any signs of it, he just simply didn't have the energy to sleep.
If Xu Qing hadn't stopped them, the doctors would have wanted to name this disease after Su Qian...
In the end, the doctors had no other choice but to let Xu Qing take care of her.
Now the study room in the small courtyard of Su Mansion has become a real study room, and Xu Qing has moved there to live with Su Qian.
Now, except for taking the last step, the two are already a real couple.
The New Year is coming quietly
Dumplings are eaten during the Chinese New Year. Ever since they were invented by Zhang Zhongjing, a medical sage in the Eastern Han Dynasty, they have become a must-eat food on New Year’s Eve.
Today, Magistrate Su was making dumplings with Xu Qing and Su Qian.
There are two kinds of fillings for dumplings, one is pork filling and the other is shepherd's purse filling.
Perhaps it was because of the Chinese New Year, but Su Qian looked much better than in the past. At least she could look like ordinary people, sitting on her seat making dumplings with Xu Qing.
However, the dumplings made by Su Qian were really unflattering. The skins of each dumpling were broken and she couldn't control the strength at all.
