Xiao Chong did not lose his composure because of the chili pepper. Xiao Yixun's idea of secretly poking at her to watch the excitement came to nothing, and her face became even colder, as if everyone owed her eight million.
Lin Wanwan could see that Xiao Yixun had a deep grudge against Xiao Chong for forcefully sending her back to Chang'an last time. He still held a grudge against her and would probably go back for revenge if he had the chance.
Xiao Chong should just wish for good luck. Xiao Yixun, a weirdo, will never be surprised by anything he does.
Because Lin Wanwan was favored by the other party, she could only treat her as a guest. But in fact, she was very wary of Xiao Yixun in her heart.
She also didn't let Xiao Qingyu be alone with him. She always felt that Xiao Yixun was very hostile to Xiao Qingyu, as if there was an extra child in the family and they were fighting for favor.
My heart is very tired!
In particular, Xiao Yixun's hobbies were so special that he would panic just by looking at them.
Lin Wanwan also did not allow Xiao Qingyu to go to the wing where Xiao Yixun lived, for fear that she might accidentally touch something she shouldn't and be poisoned.
Xiao Yixun spent most of her time quietly staying in the wing room arranged for her, and occasionally went into the mountains to pick herbs - they were all poisonous, and it was obvious that she was not using them for medicine.
In ancient times, poison doctors were not divided into different families. Xiao Yixun's ability in herbal medicine was no worse than that of Lin Wanwan, who had specially followed Mr. Sun to test and identify medicines.
After the dinner was finished, Huanong and Xiao Yixun's mute maid put away the food table, while Hongyan took Xiao Qingyu down to rest.
The little one was reluctant at first. She wanted her mother to sleep with her, but Lin Wanwan hugged her and coaxed her for a few words before she agreed to take little Rongrong to sleep first.
"Cousin, I heard that a thunder bomb was set off outside your Hongyanxiao shop in Fang City today?"
Xiao Chong really came here for this reason, and Lin Wanwan was mentally prepared for it.
She smiled and took out a small firecracker that she picked specially from her purse and handed it to Xiao Chong, saying: "It's not a thunder, it's just louder than ordinary firecrackers. Cousin, you can see for yourself."
Twenty years later, a Taoist priest named Li Tian in the Tang Dynasty would invent a rudimentary version of firecrackers, and his descendants also developed brilliant fireworks.
Gunpowder was invented very early, and there are three theories handed down. One is from the Han Dynasty, the other is from the Jin Dynasty, and the other is from the Tang Dynasty. Anyway, they are all related to alchemy.
Medicine King Sun Simiao summarized the experience of previous alchemists, collected formulas from other alchemists, and finally proposed the very effective formula of sulfur and fire method, which was passed down to later generations.
The Taoist priest Li Wei developed firecrackers on this basis. However, even so, the Tang Dynasty did not say that it would soon enter the gunpowder era. The first recorded artillery appeared in the Southern Song Dynasty.
Therefore, Lin Wanwan was not worried about opening a Pandora's box if she brought firecrackers to the Tang Dynasty. Originally, she did not bring these firecrackers, but in a few years Li Tian and his descendants would do the same.
With the Chinese people's love for firecrackers, they would burn firecrackers and listen to the sound when celebrating or mourning. It was only a matter of time before the emergence of firecrackers.
Xiao Chong took the firecracker from Lin Wanwan's hand, looked at it carefully under the lamp for a while, and then handed it to Lonely Di beside him: "Brother Xiwen, what do you think?"
Dugu Di put down the wine bag containing Lin Wanwan's new wine, picked up the firecracker, put it to the tip of his nose and sniffed it for a while. After pondering for a long time, he said: "There is gunpowder, cutting paper, sulfur, charcoal powder and fire salt inside."...
After saying that, he gently squeezed the firecracker with his fingertips, turned to Lin Wanwan and said curiously: "Mr. Le'an Township, I have something unclear, and I would like to ask you for advice."
Lin Wanwan looked at the other person's face tied with a ribbon. For some reason, even though he couldn't see her, Lin Wanwan felt like he was piercing her heart.
If this guy could open his eyes, his gaze would be as sharp as Xiao Chong's.
Lin Wanwan secretly calmed down and said calmly: "Dugu Jun, please ask."
Dugu Di said: "Sulfur, charcoal powder, and fire salt are easy to collect, but where did Xiangjun get this paper? As far as I know, there is no paper mill in the Tang Dynasty that can make this kind of paper.
.”
Lin Wanwan's eyes widened when she heard this, and her inner thoughts flashed. Was there a mistake? Was this something that was touched or smelled?!
Who is the blind man? Does he know all this?
You underestimated the ancients of the Tang Dynasty!
Lin Wanwan was a little panicked, so she could only continue to let her illusory senior brother take the blame: "My senior brother gave it to me before, maybe it was an imported product, haha. Brother Dugu is really powerful, you can tell the difference."
Dugu Di smiled faintly and did not chase after him. He just silently put the firecracker back into Xiao Chong's hand.
Xiao Chong looked at Lin Wanwan with a pair of peach blossom eyes, half-smiling but not smiling, and nodded lightly: "Oh~ It turns out it was Senior Brother Ling's handiwork again~"
This tone was clearly full of ridicule.
It seems that I have seen through you, but it seems that I have not, but I just refuse to say it outright. Lin Wanwan is so angry!
Death can also make people die more happily! What are you doing to make people feel anxious?
This Yin Yang Master!!!
Lin Wanwan glared at Xiao Chong fiercely, and said sarcastically: "My cousin's eyes are like a torch, and he can see fire like a fire. My senior brother can't compare to it. I'm disrespectful!"
Xiao Chong touched his nose and smiled: "Xiao made a mistake, please don't be angry, cousin."
Then he immediately changed the subject: "Does my cousin have this recipe for firecrackers? This thing may have other uses. I want to ask you for it."
Lin Wanwan said angrily: "The formula is a secret that is not passed down, how can I give it to you so easily! My cousin is beautiful, and I want to be even more beautiful!"
"Cough cough cough cough!"
As soon as Lin Wanwan finished speaking, Dugu Di choked on his wine and kept coughing.
He has never met someone who spoke so rudely to Xiao Zifang. Today he has seen it, he is so fierce!
Xiao Chong sighed softly and said helplessly: "I was too abrupt."
He couldn't understand why Lin Wanwan got so angry for no apparent reason and spoke so rudely. He didn't expose anything about her and just kept cooperating with her performance.
As soon as Lin Wanwan said the words, she felt something was wrong and blushed slightly.
It was not just her and Xiao Chong today, there was also an outsider from the Dugu family. She really shouldn't be denying Xiao Chong face like this.
And it is indeed rude to directly mention the appearance. After all, this is the Tang Dynasty and not modern times.
People like Xiao Chong are probably very taboo about being called beautiful. Being beautiful sounds very much like feminizing the other person.
When Zhuge Liang scolded Sima Yi, he just sent him a woman's clothes, which meant that Sima Yi looked like a woman, which was a serious insult.
Anyone else would have been unable to hold back and come out for a decisive battle, but Sima Yi was a Ninja Turtle, so he just held back.
Lin Wanwan secretly glanced at Xiao Chong and saw that his expression was as usual and he didn't look very angry, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm so excited! How can I keep the big boss from coming to the stage? He's my big boss in Luan County, so I have to show the same attitude towards important customers as when I first entered the company as an intern after graduation!
Customers have abused me thousands of times, but I treat them like my first love!
"Haha, cousin, don't be surprised. I was just joking. I have the recipe and will give it to you right away." This chapter has been completed!
