Chapter 234 Give a secret signal to drink tea
I thought that everything was close to being settled, but Baicaoshi planned to put the research and development of spice soap, soap, and bath beans on the agenda while waiting for Concubine Si to have her stitches removed. This is the first step in opening up the beauty and cosmeceutical market, and Baicaoshi is full of energy.
As a result, something interrupted her plan.
The situation at the time was like this.
Ding Xiang knocked on the door of her room, "Ma'am, there is a servant outside the door begging to see him, claiming to be the bookboy of the heir of the Northern Qi Dynasty."
"Heir of the Northern Qi Dynasty?"
Baicaoshi is cleaning the blood from pig pancreas, which she bought wholesale from Dongshi. It just looks kind of gross, with fat hanging from it that needs to be dealt with. Ding Xiang subconsciously wanted to cover her nose.
Baicaoshi didn't care what the little maid thought. The dirty sees dirty, and the visionary sees wealth. Once the market for pancreas opens up, even the noble daughters of Yanjing will rush to buy them in the future. "I gonna go see."
After washing her hands, Baicaoshi walked out of the room, "Accompany me to have a look."
"Huh?" This sentence was a bit unexpected, Ding Xiang didn't react for a while, and then said "Oh".
Arrived outside the vermilion gate of the palace, I saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old school boy, wearing thin clothes, with his hands in his sleeves, pacing back and forth, probably because of the cold weather, he walked around to keep warm.
"Oh, is it Miss Bai?" The little book boy asked respectfully, "My name is Yun'an, and by the order of my family's eldest son, please invite Mr. Zhe Yu and Miss Bai to come to the house to attend a tea party at the end of the twelfth lunar month."
Baicaoshi looked at the little bookboy, whose name was elegant. It's just that the son of the Northern Qi Dynasty has an embarrassing status, he has met twice, and he looks quite downcast, but now he is going to hold a tea party, isn't he afraid of so many eyes staring at him?
She looked at Ding Xiang beside her, looked around inadvertently, and still kept a decent smile on her face, "Thank you for your love and kind invitation, but I am not familiar with you, and I have already made arrangements for that day. superior…"
Yun An was very cramped, probably in a state of anxiety, his face blushed three points, "My son also knows that it would be abrupt to invite you rashly. It's just that the details need to be discussed in person. When is it convenient for Miss Bai? My family..."
Baicaoshi raised her hand and stopped what he was going to say next, "Please pass on my words to the prince without any changes. Good wine on a good day must be at the right time. Unfortunately, Mr. Zheyu and I both If there is something to do, let's end the tea party."
Saying that, Baicaoshi turned and walked into the mansion.
Not to mention the little book boy Yunan, even Ding Xiang was dumbfounded. This is the rejection?
"Madam, is it inappropriate to refuse like this?"
Baicaoshi stopped, looked back, and said in a cold voice, "I don't know that Northern Qi prince well, so going to his tea party, what else is there but embarrassment? It's better to sleep at home."
Ding Xiang secretly slandered, she seemed to be busy with something on weekdays, and she never saw snoozing for a while, how could it become an excuse today?
If you don't understand it, don't think about it. She doesn't go out of the door and doesn't go out. Yu Dingxiang is the best.

Outside the gate, Yun An stomped his feet, turned and walked back.
The matter that the prince asked was not completed, and he still doesn’t know how to deal with the prince when he looks back? That Bai girl looks charming and sweet, how can she reject people without even a little room for maneuver?
When he returned to West Suzaku Avenue, he saw Shen Liqing, the phoenix girl of destiny, getting into the carriage. He turned his body sideways, saluted with his eyes, and then slowly entered the hall.
At this time, Bai Shaoze was making tea. The room is very cold, and the burning carbon is also of low quality. Once it is burned too much, it will produce thick smoke, so he is determined not to burn it as long as he can stand it. It's just that in order to practice making tea now, I have to boil water.
Yun An was gloomy and not in high spirits, "Miss Bai refused, saying that there are arrangements for that day."
Bai Shaoze stopped the tea in his hand and asked, "Did she really say that?"
The little book boy nodded like a pounding garlic, humming non-stop, and then imitated the demeanor of Baicao Poetry. "Please pass on my words to the crown prince without any changes. Good time and good wine must be at the right time. Unfortunately, Mr. Zhe Yu and I have something to do, so let's let the tea party go."
Bai Shaoze walked to the desk, rubbed his hands together, dipped the brush in ink, and wrote these words on the paper. "Huh?" It seems wrong, beautiful scenery on a good day, good wine on a good day?
"Your Majesty, you haven't seen the reality clearly. Everyone is always worshiping the high and stepping on the low. With our status, who would want to come?" Xiao Yunan said resentfully.
Bai Shaoze seemed to be very happy, the pen fell down, and circled two characters, one for "wine" and one for "time".
Wine?
"Yunan, don't be downcast, the tea party will turn into a private banquet, prepare some exquisite dishes and wine, and it's still the 22nd day."
Yun An opened his mouth wide, not understanding Shizi's self-confidence. "What time?"
"Drinking time. Oh no, it's You time, let's go." Bai Shaoze was full of joy.
Yun An stared at the two circles on the paper, suddenly realized, but didn't know why. What I understand is the code word of Baicao Poetry, but what I don't understand is why?
Bai Shaoze took a pen and tapped the head of his school boy, "Use your brain more often when things happen, think about where they live, think about what they do. They are very human, so they naturally do extraordinary things."
**
The research and development of Baicaoshi is still going on.
She removed the fat from the pig pancreas, then ground it into a paste, then added soybean powder, agarwood spices, mixed evenly, and began to dry. The natural drying process is the moment when the pancreas is finished.
After making the pancreas, she tried to make some soap and bath beans, which were recorded in Sun Simiao's "Thousand Gold Prescriptions" and "Thousand Gold Wing Prescriptions".
"It's hard to give up on being born beautiful, but it's a pity that I don't get tired of eating anything. I will work hard and become a heartthrob." Because of being too excited, Baicaoshi turned into a girl from a girl group and hummed softly the most popular and popular in the modern world. song.
Until she realized, the shadow cast from above.
Lifting his head suddenly, he saw Zhe Yu looking at her carefully. "You, want to become a heartthrob?"
Baicaoshi chuckled, she was the one that Sheshi was talking about on the spot, how embarrassing! "That, that, the lyrics are just for fun, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."
Zhe Yu gave a meaningful "hmm", "Is this also the song of your hometown?"
Ever since Baicaoshi mentioned his hometown, Zheyu seems to be obsessed with it, and he often asks about it.
"Uh, that's right. Yubao, you're back, I'll make some delicious food for you today, pork pancreas with fennel, pork pancreas soup with lotus root, pork pancreas stewed with yam..."
STOP! Are you sure it's delicious and not punishing? How do you eat something like pig pancreas? Since getting married with Baicaoshi, Zhe Yu has eaten countless strange things. "Shishi, I heard that you rejected the invitation of the Prince of the Northern Qi Dynasty."
This turning point was a bit fast, Zhe Yu's attitude was unclear, Baicaoshi blinked, and then walked down the steps and said: "Yes, is there a problem? I don't know him well. There are many eyes and ears around the palace, so one thing more is worse than one thing less. "
Zhe Yu nodded pretentiously, and said: "The son of the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Shen family are neighbors, but there are disturbances in the court, and everyone is watching Taifu Shen. Even the son of the Northern Qi Dynasty has received more attention. You are right to refuse."
Relying on Baicaoshi's understanding of Zhe Yu, I always feel that there is something in his words, and someone like him who cherishes words like gold will not say something for no reason. Interested, Baicaoshi simply asked: "Yu Bao, the proton of a small country, how can he become the neighbor of the current Taifu?"
