Yan Xingxuan's words made Xiao Nianzhi feel warm in his ears again.
She's not sure...
Is this a love story?
Regardless of whether it is true or not, people can't help but feel ripples and ups and downs in their hearts.
Xiao Nianzhi lowered his eyebrows and pursed his thin lips, trying to control his emotions.
Yan Xingxuan also felt that after these words were spoken, the atmosphere began to become ambiguous and he even wanted to run away.
The hands placed on the side of the body were a little stiff and some did not dare to move.
Yan Xingxuan even breathed very lightly.
Xiao Nianzhi's mind jumped very quickly. After a while, he thought of the unique fragrance that Yan Xingxuan said.
In the aristocratic circles of the capital, there are only a few popular fragrances that come and go over and over again.
There are single scents and compound scents.
Compound incense is not too complicated. It usually consists of three to four different scents, which are dyed and dried, and then when burned, a distinct flavor will waft out.
However, compound incense does not seem to be sought after by the nobles in Beijing.
Among the noble girls that Xiao Nianzhi met, Yan Changxia had a clear lily scent, and Aunt Yu had the same style as herself, but Xiao Nianzhi liked the ones that were relatively more elegant.
Guo Sixue hardly uses incense, and the faint smell that occasionally comes out of her body is also the lingering fragrance of the spices in the algae beans.
Zheng Qingran's fragrance is not fixed. Sometimes it is sweet-scented osmanthus, sometimes plum blossom, or lily.
Zhou Libai is also not stable, but Xiao Nianzhi once smelled a faint compound fragrance of spring letters in the snow on her body.
Of course, Xiao Nianzhi is actually not sure.
She has no in-depth research on spices. She has a good nose and is simply a natural talent.
I also know about spices because my friends like to try them, and those who succeed will give her some.
In modern times, Xiao Nianzhi didn't usually use incense.
The reason why it is used again now is that there is nothing we can do about it.
If the bun is not fixed with hair oil, sometimes it will become frizzy and frizzy, which looks disrespectful.
The algae beans are ready-made by Aunt Yu, and they contain all kinds of precious spices, with cinnamon being the strongest.
If the clothes are not fumigated, Aunt Yu will occasionally ask: Don’t you like them? Do you want me to change them?
Xiao Nianzhi is now more proficient in cooking and has less worries, so it is actually okay to use a little light fragrance, and the impact is not very big.
If you want a unique compound fragrance, it’s actually easy to blend.
Regardless of solid or liquid, as long as the materials are used properly, they can use their different properties to create a sense of hierarchy such as front, middle, and back notes.
It's just that Xiao Nianzhi doesn't know how to mix fragrance.
So, let’s wait until we reach level seven.
The atmosphere was ambiguous for a while, and finally Xiao Nianzhi broke the silence: "The unique fragrance may need to be studied slowly. I should have written about it in the book I read before, but I can't remember it. I have to go back and think about it.
Look."
After Yan Xingxuan said those words, he became extremely nervous.
He was afraid that Xiao Nianzhi would see through his thoughts and refuse without hesitation.
It wasn't until he heard Xiao Nianzhi say that the unique incense could be blended that Yan Xingxuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He nodded in agreement: "If you think about it, you can go back and think about it slowly. If you need anything, just tell me."
Xiao Nianzhi nodded, and then motioned to Yan Xingxuan to take out the Guanghan cake.
While the cold pastries were drying, Xiao Nianzhi took Yan Xingxuan to look at her tomatoes and peppers.
Compared to other plants, tomatoes and peppers don’t grow very well!
It is no exaggeration to say that it stands out from the crowd.
As soon as Yan Xingxuan came over, he saw that the four plants were different.
He said out of curiosity: "This flower looks strange, but I have never seen it before. It seems that it doesn't exist in Brother Kang Wang's house."
King Kang loved flowers, and there were all kinds of rare and common flowers and plants in his house.
Brother Kang Wang has Wei Zi, Yao Huang, and eighteen bachelors who are hard-earned by others, and they all serve them very well.
Although Yan Xingxuan doesn't like flowers, he goes there often and sees a lot of them.
Looking at the four plants in front of him now, he really didn't recognize any of them.
And will the flowers of the plant in front of me be too small?
Some even bear small fruits?
So, this should be some kind of fruit plant, right?
Yan Xingxuan was unsure, and Xiao Nianzhi didn't explain much.
I can only follow his words and say: "The flower seeds I asked Uncle Zheng to buy at that time were several packages. Maybe something was mixed in them. I saw that the flowers were not big, but the fruits were pretty good for the time being.
Okay, let’s keep it first.”
The tomatoes that have grown now are still green, and Yan Xingxuan can’t see anything.
However, as long as Xiao Nianzhi likes it.
So, he nodded: "I also think the fruit is good, let's wait and see what it can grow into."
At this point, Yan Xingxuan thought for a while and then said: "If you don't want to serve me, let Shanglinyuan send someone over to take over. When the fruits are ripe, we can pick them again."
Supervisor of Shanglinyuan:?
Let’s just say, how about replacing the wool with a shear?
With just four plants, Xiao Nianzhi didn't need to bother anyone for help.
She smiled and shook her head: "No need for now, let's wait and see."
The two of them talked about something else. After the Guanghan cake was dried, Xiao Nianzhi took people back to cut it into small pieces that were convenient for eating. After wrapping three small bags for Xiao Siye and the others, the rest came one after another.
The share was given to Uncle Fu and the others.
Today’s Guanghan cake still tastes good.
The floral and sweet aroma makes people feel happy after eating it.
After eating the Guanghan cake, Xiao Nianzhi went to sort out the shrimp skin sent from Ruzhou.
Well, local officials are very practical.
A big bag full of dried shrimp skins.
The moment she opened it, the smell of seafood hit Xiao Nianzhi's face, which made her even more hungry for seafood.
Woo hoo, crabs, shrimps, etc. are getting fat at this time.
Unfortunately, I can’t eat it for the time being.
Seeing that there was still time, Xiao Nianzhi and Yan Xingxuan ground up part of the shrimp skin again.
It is enough to freshen the dried shrimps, so there is no need to grind them all.
Grind part of it and mix it with chicken and mushrooms to make chicken essence.
You can grab a handful of the rest when making soup, make steamed buns with vegetarian fillings, and grab a pack...
As long as you like salty and fresh food, you can add dried shrimps.
When it got dark, Xiao Nianzhi saw that the time was almost up, and went to the cafeteria with Aunt Yu, Yan Xingxuan and the guards.
Laishun has already gone down the mountain with a guard to find suitable milk.
As soon as the students saw Xiao Nianzhi coming to the cafeteria, they knew that the midnight snack must be safe.
Some poor students came over specially to have dinner.
The reason for delaying dinner is so that you won’t be hungry when you warm up at night.
At this moment, when I saw Xiao Nianzhi, I couldn't help but get excited.
Especially when they saw that Xiao Nianzhi seemed to be washing kitchen utensils that they had never seen before, their curiosity and expectation became even stronger.
Yan Xingxuan didn't understand either. He followed him, pointed at the kitchen utensils in Xiao Nianzhi's hand, and asked in a low voice: "Think about it, what is this?"
