Chapter 146
Qi Yun has read a lot of books about spices, and he can recognize that this is Chenxiang, but the quality is not easy to know at a glance.
After taking it to someone for identification, the result was better than Qi Li thought.
This is the top incense, excellent quality, price but no market!
Qi Yun gave the box to Ye Jiao, which was bought by Jiao Niang and should be kept by him, and Qi Yun made it clear: "since it is a good thing, you should use it, otherwise it would be a waste."
Ye Jiao blinked: "but I will not, and you said, this is not the price of gold?"
Since the price is higher than gold, it seems a bit wasteful to light it so casually.
Qi Yun didn't mind how much it was worth, so he smiled faintly and said, "you might as well do it. It's the same if you like to burn and play."
It's just that Qi Yun didn't know that Little Ginseng struggled with this box for a long time.
Finally, she said to Qi Yun, "find me a book."
It was already night, and it was dark outside, and there was not much noise.
Xubao and the dragon and Phoenix have fallen asleep, sleeping in the wing next door, and now there are only husband and wife in the inner room.
Qi Yun wanted to take advantage of this time to sort out the account books sent by the manager of the Song Dynasty, but after hearing Ye Jiao's words, he immediately threw them aside, gathered his coat, got up and walked to the bedside, holding the bedstead in one hand. Then he leaned down slightly and looked at Ye Jiao and said, "what kind of book do you want?"
Qi Erlang is still thinking, each book has its own beauty, although the previous one has read a lot, but looked cordial, and later bought the new ones are fresh, although some posture is a bit difficult, but it is not impossible to try.
As long as the wife nodded, he should do everything.
Ye Jiao was soaking her feet at the moment, swaying in the basin, smelling the words and biting her lower lip. She seemed to have made a big decision before she raised her head to Qi Yun and said, "if you can learn to mix incense, that's fine."
Qi Yun:.
Feeling somewhat different from what he thought, Qi Yun decided to ask more: "do you want to learn to mix incense?"
Ye Jiao nodded, her voice soft: "since it is rare to make good use of everything is a gift between heaven and earth, can not be consumed for no reason."
This is what Ye Jiao has never said before, but it is the insistence of Xiao Ginseng all the time.
In fact, in this millennium, there are not many feelings that can be obtained, and little ginseng is not a person who likes to think. This is probably one of them.
She always cherishes everything she has now and doesn't want to miss anything.
It's just that this answer is obviously different from what Qi Yun thought, except that he didn't let Ye Jiao see her disappointment. Instead, he took the cloth, sat sideways on the low stool, then reached out to wipe Ye Jiao, and said, "actually, if you want to study carefully, I can find you a woman."
Ye Jiao thought for a moment, but her eyes looked at Qi Yun: "are you all right?"
In fact, Qi Yun won 't. after all, there was no need for spices in Qi Erlang's past.
In addition to the smell of medicinal materials, his body is the aroma of book and ink, and the spices next to him will more or less make him out of breath and naturally will not use it.
But when his wife asked, he couldn't say no, so he said, "I can learn with you."
Ye Jiao smiled, nodded, and said in a soft voice, "then I'll come with you, not a woman or a gentleman, and you can teach me." In her mind, Qi Yun is omnipotent and can learn everything quickly.
Qi Yun did not expect that he had found himself a job, but facing this smiling face, he could accept everything.
It's just that if you agree to an errand, it's always going to do you some good.
So when Qi Yun went to pick up an incense book, he also brought another book by the way.
Ye Jiao has never seen this book. It looks a little new, but three or four bookmarks have been added to it.
These bookmarks are made by Ye Jiao to flatten the flowers and dry them in the sun. Although they are not as effective as eating them, it is always good for your health to take them with you.
When Qi Yun went to bed and settled his account, Ye Jiao asked him, "Xianggong, what is this?"
On the other hand, Qi Yun moved over the bed, put the candle on it, then leaned over Ye Jiao and said, "this is an incense book. In addition to the varieties of incense, there are also some ways to burn incense. Take a look, and we'll learn together later." As for this one, look at it. "
Ye Jiao did not doubt it, took the book without title and opened it.
The next moment, she quickly closed, looked up at Qi Yun: "Xianggong, this book is all pictures, there are no words."
Qi Yun reached out and took her in his arms and asked softly, "you don't like it?"
Ye Jiao looked over and kissed him: "like, watch together."
Qi Yun smiled. He was used to Ye Jiao's frank appearance and thought she was particularly cute.
Then, the two people gathered together to look through the pages of the candle, and had to say that what they bought this time was really high-quality, dishes, fine, like meticulous paintings, and every detail was well outlined, but those obscure places were cleverly covered with flowers or landscapes, looking at some hazy beauty.
Ye Jiao looked at the few bookmarks that had been stuffed by Qi Jiao, and said with emotion, "Xianggong, you have chosen well. This time you have seen it much more carefully than I have." Husband? "
She was answered by a soft kiss on the cheek.
There was a smile in the man's voice: "you have to try to know."
Ye Jiao did not refuse, on the contrary, she nodded with the spirit of exploration and wanted to kiss him, but when she approached him, she reached out and pressed: "you have caught me."
This is like lighting a fire, burning both of them in.
When the love reached the depths, the little ginseng's eyes were already misty with water. She turned around and looked at the books that had been thrown aside, and the candles on the bed table. Her rare ears turned red, and she grabbed the man's shoulder hard. "Xiang Gong, blow out the candles, it's too bright," she said in a low voice. "
Qi Yun pushed forward heavily, with a deep smile in his voice: "if you have agreed to study hard, you will naturally have to light it up in order to see it clearly."
Ye Jiao can only cover her mouth, how can she control the candle?
Being sore and numb, Ye Jiao thought vaguely that she still rolled together a few times, and finally knew why Qi Yun had made the bed so big.
It used to be easy to sleep with the child, but now the bed and candles are also spacious.
I can see it clearly, even a few beads of sweat can be seen clearly.
When Ye Jiao crouched in his arms and gasped for breath, she heard Qi Yun say in her ear, "Niang Niang, will you still learn?"
Qi Yun didn't make it clear whether he asked about incense or the painting, and little ginseng didn't bother to ask.
Ye Jiao took a bite on his shoulder and soon fell into a deep sleep.
In learning to recognize incense, Qi Yun is indeed faster than Ye Jiao. Ye Jiao is not in a hurry. Instead, she finds a lot of fun. After all, when two people like each other, everything will be very interesting.
However, for Qi Yun, this box of incense is more than just a valuable object.
Perhaps the old man who sold things and even his owner did not know that the box had mezzanine layers, but just looking at this box knew that his ancestors should have been a wealthy family.
And seeing that they can still wander in the capital without being driven out, they are not the kind of official sinners denounced by the emperor.
If the rich family is in trouble, if they really have some roots, they may be able to form a good relationship if they help.
In this world, it is always easier to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, but if you can give it a hand, it is inevitably not a help.
So Qi Yun asked Qin to look for the old man these days and talk about his identity.
Before Qin was in charge, he knew that he had almost ruined Qi Yun, but he was nervous. Now, when he got an errand, he naturally worked very hard and used all his contacts to help his employer find it.
Compared with the nervousness of Qi er and his wife, Qi Ming is leisurely.
In theory, it should be the most important thing for him to start the examination, but the more relaxed Qi Ming approaches the Hong Kong Certificate of Education examination.
I have memorized what I should have memorized, I have learned what I should learn, and I am in no hurry at this time.
And he and his brother Chu Cheng promised to see each other often, which also gave Qi Ming a special motivation.
Until the day of the beginning of the Hong Kong Certificate of Education examination, it was not Qi Yun and his wife who sent Qi Ming in a horse-drawn carriage, but Chu Chengyun.
Looking at the third brother who was picked up by Chu Chengyun, Ye Jiao Ang asked, "do you think the third brother will win?"
Qi Yun took her by the shoulder, heard the words, and said in a slow voice, "if you don't hit it, you can't force it." then his voice paused slightly, "but if he doesn't, I'm afraid he won't see this righteous brother outside the palace again."
Chu Chengyun painstakingly guided Qi Ming, and if he could not see the result, the new emperor, who was still a little wayward, would not bow his head easily. At that time, the fate between his third brother and him would be broken.
People who are incompetent will always be abandoned.
But Qi Yun and Ye Jiao sat in the carriage together, followed them, and watched Qi Ming enter the examination room from a distance.
Close the examination room, put on the seal, no longer enter or leave.
After the beginning of the examination, they had to pass three consecutive exams, and the former dynasty would let them come out and fix them in three games, but the imperial examinations in this dynasty were more standardized and stricter. As long as they had finished three exams at the beginning, they could not come out until they had finished three exams. For nine days in a row, they all had to live on their own.
This is not only a test of knowledge, but also a struggle of physical strength and will.
Each of the relatives of the son was perturbed, and when they were in a panic, they liked to pray for worship and the illusory gods and Buddhas. Recently, the incense of Taoist temples inside and outside the capital was always at its peak. Even Ye Jiao received a letter from Liu and went to the Taoist temple outside the city to worship in place of her.
Liu's reason for choosing Taoist temples near the capital is that if he is close, the effect of blessing is good.
In this tense atmosphere, a heavy rain quietly fell on the capital.
