Chapter 115 There is a request
Chang Yan suffocated her breath.
This Wang Xi is all these methods coming and going, and he will only use money to smash people!
She laughed in her heart, but had to admit that Wang Xi's method was really effective. What surprised her was that she didn't expect that Wang Xi would do the same to the people around her.
It can be seen that the Wang family is really rich.
She was more excited about visiting Wang Xi.
"Cousin of the Wang family!" Chang Yan greeted Wang Xi with a smile, and the expression on her face was a little more enthusiastic than usual.
Wang Xi seemed to see the Wang family's female relatives who had requested her, and a line of defense was set up in his heart, allowing ginkgo to bring a few white atractylodes to divide the pearls, leaving Baizhi to serve tea for Chang Yan.
Chang Yan must compliment Wang Xi for a few words like "to be kind to others" and "be generous and cheerful".
Wang Xi listened with a smile, and was even more sure that Chang Yan had a request, but she just didn't ask why Chang Yan came - she wanted to speak first, so there was no such rule.
Chang Yan talked a lot for a long time, but when she saw Wang Xi just couldn't stop touching her, she also asked Bai Zhi who had changed to serve their refreshments. She was ready for the rice and noodles sent to Yunju Temple. She explained to Chang Yan that since she followed the wife to Yunju Temple to worship Buddha last time, she felt that Yunju Temple was covered with green trees and the vegetarian mat was very good. She thought that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, and should she stay at Yunju Temple for a few days: "Let Madam Wang prepare some rice and noodles, and donate it to Yunju Temple in the past two days, so she would have a few days left."
The weather is indeed getting hotter and hotter. Because the Yongcheng Hou Mansion is growing, the place where he lives is getting smaller and smaller. After cutting down trees to build houses several times, he is not as good as other people's ancient trees, and naturally he is not ashamed of other people's families. The Chang family also prefers boys over girls. Although Chang Yan is the only daughter of the second wife, she is quite favored by her parents, but there is really nothing worthy of praise in the place where she lives.
Wang Xi will definitely find a way to bring Chang Ke with him.
For some reason, Chang Yan thought so confidently, and felt uncomfortable again. But Wang Xi stood up as he said these words and said, "Does the third sister want to go with me? I am also thinking about whether to send a table of vegetarian buns. This year, there must be many people who can stay in Yunju Temple. If you just send some rice and flour, you are afraid that there is nothing rare. Yunju Temple may not agree to let us stay. Vegetarian buns are different. They are the skill of the chef in my room. If you can't let them go in such a hot day, no one will do this."
You know no one does this and you still do it?!
Chang Yan couldn't help but complain in her heart, but she had to admit that if Wang Xi really made a bun with vegetarian stuffing, Yunju Temple would really put out a courtyard for Wang Xi to stay for a few days.
But Wang Xi's behavior of standing up and talking was a tactful way to see off the guests in the etiquette and norms, which made Chang Yan's face look a little bad, but she had to pretend not to understand and drag Wang Xi to continue speaking: "Madam Wang is so capable, so I have to go see it myself, just give me an order."
Wang Xi sneered in her heart, but she didn't intend to be used to her as she begged for someone, as if she was not a big deal.
She smiled and said, "I know! But I want to go to the kitchen and eat a few while they make vegetarian buns. I have a little bit of cold noodles these days."
Wang Xi was a little bitter in summer. In summer, she wanted to eat heavy-tasting food. After eating too much, she became angry. Madam Wang personally boiled herbal tea and wanted to see her pour it down before giving up. She made her bitter and wondered whether to ask Dr. Feng to prescribe some tonics for her.
Chang Yan wanted to stop her now, but it was useless, so she had to explain her purpose: "I came to find my sister because I had something to ask for."
Wang Xi deliberately looked surprised, then sat down and said, "The Yongcheng Hou Mansion is powerful and the elders are all capable people. What can I ask my third sister to come to me?" She said, and pretended to be afraid and moved her body to the side, continuing, "I'm afraid that I am weak and can't help my third sister. Then, don't blame me."
Before she could say this, she stopped her and Chang Yan could only smile bitterly in her heart. Who made her ask for her?
If it were normal, Chang Yan would have left, but this time, what she wanted was secret, she could only bite the bullet and say, "It is because it is difficult to ask for elders that I came to my cousin." She was afraid that Wang Xi would be a monster, so she hurriedly told Wang Xi what she asked for: "I heard that my cousin's family has some connection with Jimintang. Can you help me ask for ginseng that has been supported for a hundred years?"
Centennial ginseng is quite rare, but those who also do medicinal materials business like Wang Xi, when they encounter good things, especially life-saving things, they will of course keep them for themselves. What others cannot find is very common for her.
But Wang Xi didn't want to help.
Everyone in the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion is good. Chang Yan must have come to beg her for the people from the Yongcheng Marquis Mansion. Then Chang Yan either took it as a favor or asked for others. If it was the former, why should she give Chang Yan a face? If it was the latter, since she could all come to Chang Yan, why couldn't she come to beg her?
Moreover, Chang Yan and Shi Zhu got very close to each other during this period. If Chang Yan came to ask her for Shi Zhu, the things finally came to Shi Zhu's hands and she would be so angry that she vomited blood.
Wang Xi smiled and said, "Even if the medicinal materials produced in Shu have no connection with Jimintang, the family cannot be prepared for such medicinal materials that save lives. But what you are asking for is a century-old ginseng, and such magical medicines are all in the hands of elders. If you want them, your third sister has to give me a reason to speak in front of the elders!"
She guessed that Chang Yan would definitely not be able to say it clearly.
Chang Yan's face was indeed embarrassed.
Wang Xi seemed to give her a step, but in fact he was blocking her and said, "I don't know who wants it? What do you use it for? Doctor Feng from Jimintang grew up watching me. His medical skills are very good. Otherwise, I will give you a thread and lead someone to Dr. Feng's place? Or can I use it with ordinary ginseng. I still have two ginseng from twenty years old here. I'm really anxious. You can use it first."
Ginseng is worthwhile but not rare. If Chang Yan dares to give it to Shi Zhu, she will be able to make everyone in the capital know that Shi Zhu can't even get ginseng for twenty years, which will make her lose all her foundation and face.
Chang Yan's expression was a little unfavorable. She stammered for a while, but did not say what it would take for a hundred years of ginseng. Instead, she left a living sentence: "I don't know if ginseng for twenty years is useful. If it is useful, I have to ask my cousin or go to Jimintang to take a look."
Wang Xi nodded and asked the ginkgo to send Chang Yan away.
Chang Ke rushed over quickly, wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked Wang Xi: "Have the third sister been here?"
It seems that there is a reason for this!
Wang Xi personally poured a cup of sour plum soup and asked Chang Ke to sit down and talk.
Chang Ke took a sip of sour plum soup and calmed down. Then he said, "My third sister asked me to beg you, but I felt something was wrong. Not only did I refuse politely, but I also advised her for a long time. She promised me not to care about this matter, but she didn't expect that she would still beg you. I rushed to you early and late, but still didn't catch up."
Only then did Wang Xi realize that it was the second wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang, that is, the fourth son of the Marquis of Xiangyang, Jie Feng, who was sick and needed ginseng for a hundred years as medicine. The Marquis of Xiangyang was not there, so he had sent someone to the Marquis of Qingyun to find a solution. Who knew that Chang Yan was anxious to ask her after hearing this.
This obviously doesn’t matter to Chang Yan!
Is this power of love so great? It can make a reserved girl raised in the boudoir and become in chaos.
No wonder Chang Yan couldn't say it.
Chang Ke was more thoughtful than Wang Xi. She reminded Wang Xi: "The emperor and the queen fell ill a few days ago. If there are such good medicinal materials in the capital now, they will be given to the palace. I guess even if someone has such a good thing, it will be kept for their own life and will never be easily taken out as favors. Moreover, the second wife of the Marquis of Xiangyang was just more decent in the Marquis of Xiangyang because her daughter married into the Marquis of Qingyun and became the princess of the Princess of Xiangyang. It is not that the second master got sick. Even if the Marquis of Xiangyang and asked to come to the Marquis of Qingyun, it may not be as good as her wish. You have to be more careful."
Everyone knows that Wang Xi is rich and his family also does a medicinal product business. He is afraid that the lady will be persuaded and comes to ask for medicine.
Wang Xi looked at the bright sunshine outside that was so stunning that people couldn't open their eyes. He sighed and called Madam Wang in, saying, "We'll stay in Yunju Temple for a few days? There is no time for peace in this mansion."
Madam Wang is eager.
Wang Xi has lost weight these days, her big eyes have become more round, and her small face is so thin that she can only see her eyes.
"I'll make arrangements now." Madam Wang was already thinking about her travel matters when she spoke. "At most two days, the lady can go out."
Wang Xi nodded repeatedly and invited Chang Ke to go with him as Chang Yan thought.
Chang Ke really wanted to leave the Yongcheng Hou Mansion and stay for a while, but her mother needed to comfort her, so she had to discuss with her mother first.
Wang Xi urged her to go quickly and ran to the kitchen to see the chef make vegetarian buns.
Vegetable stuffing, bean paste stuffing, tofu stuffing, mushroom stuffing... The chef made more than a dozen different flavors of buns in one breath.
Wang Xi suddenly remembered something, and she said to the cook: "I remember eating a bun at my eldest aunt's house. It smells exactly the same as this mushroom, with bean paste inside. Can you make it?"
The people in the kitchen looked at each other.
Wang Xi said carefully what the mushroom buns he had eaten were like.
Xiaoyaozi and Haitao from Zhenwu Temple received the land deed from Sigushan and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the Wang family is so righteous, so they are so big on the hill. I'll give it to you as soon as I say it. I'm not good to repay this favor!"
Haitao and Xiaoyaozi had different views. He said: "The reason why we can't find the land deed in Sigushan is because it has always been regarded as a dowry for women and has been to different families. I am afraid that the land deed is a dowry prepared by the elders of the Wang family to give their daughters. This kind of pecking is all cause and effect. We have to give others some compensation."
Xiaoyaozi asked Haitao: "What do you mean?"
Haitao thought for a while and said, "Aren't their family looking for incense? It just so happens that I have a collection of incense sticks left by an elder in the temple after his death. It's very wonderful. I thought it would be better to borrow flowers to offer Buddha and give it to the eldest lady of the Wang family as a thank-you gift. What do you think?"
Although it is not enough to repay the favor of Sigushan, if Nanhua Temple gets Sigushan, it will definitely erect a monument to engrave the donors for future generations to admire. A secret incense recipe is more or less a thank you gift.
