The most arrogant in history

Jiaojiao was very happy and whispered, "Brother Kun, you can go alone. I don't want to go, right?"

"Let's go together, what are you afraid of?"

Ye Kun smiled, took Jiaojiao's hand, and went to buy a gift for Wang Po.

A pair of silver earrings weighing half a penny; a small bronze mirror weighing three taels.

I bought some more fruit, and that was enough.

After buying the things, Ye Kun brought Jiaojiao to Wang Po's house.

When he saw Wang Po, Ye Kun was slightly surprised.

It’s not because Wang Po looks like Rong Mama, but because this Wang Po is very young, looks less than 40 years old, and has a face like a lotus, a slim figure, and still has charm.

With this figure and appearance, if she dresses up a bit in the future, she can be called a young lady.

Wearing a pair of suspender jeans, showing off her slim waist and long legs, she is simply a heartthrob.

But in the Dading Kingdom, she was called mother-in-law.

In fact, this situation is very normal in Dading Kingdom.

The average life expectancy is a little over 40, and men over 36 can grow a beard and call themselves an old man.

"Godmother..."

Jiaojiao opened her mouth and blushed after she screamed.

They have been neighbors since childhood, and Jiaojiao has always called her godmother.

Ye Kun also collected his messy thoughts and bowed: "Ye Kun is here to greet you, godmother."

It's not easy to marry a concubine. You have to call her godmother before you even get a sip of her milk.

Wang Po recognized Ye Kun and was so frightened that she was in a panic. She hurriedly returned the greeting: "Sir, County Lieutenant, this is really embarrassing for me..."

"Jiaojiao, help your godmother quickly."

Seeing that Wang Po was pleasing to the eye and amiable, Ye Kun immediately gave her a warm welcome and said with a smile, "Godmother, I'm here to ask you a favor."

With Jiaojiao's help, Wang Po had to sit down: "Whatever the county lieutenant has to say, I will do it."

Ye Kun opened the gift, placed it in front of Wang Po, and took Jiaojiao's hand:

"Jiaojiao and I are in love and want to be together forever. I came here to ask Aunt Wang to be the matchmaker. I brought you some small gifts as a token of my respect."

"Oh, this is a great event. Congratulations to the county lieutenant and Jiaojiao. Don't worry, county lieutenant. I will be a ready-made matchmaker and ask for a glass of wedding wine."

Wang Po smiled happily and took Jiaojiao's other hand: "Jiaojiao, you finally got your wish. Although you are marrying the county lieutenant as a concubine, it is something other girls can't ask for."

Jiaojiao lowered her head and hummed.

Ye Kun smiled and said, "Jiaojiao is the principal wife, not a concubine."

Wang Po was stunned: "Sir, County Lieutenant, I heard that you already have a wife in Caomiao Village..."

"Yes, there is a lady in Caomiao Village, but not in the county town."

Ye Kun looked at Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao will live in the county town from now on, and will not go to Caomiao Village. In the county town, she will be the principal wife."

Wang Po nodded and smiled at Jiaojiao, "Jiaojiao, just smile secretly. Look at how considerate the county lieutenant is to you. He knows how you feel."

In fact, Wang Po understood.

A situation like Jiaojiao's is called an extramarital affair.

The woman a man keeps outside never meets the first wife and is not subject to her constraints.

Jiaojiao looked at Ye Kun and said with courage:

"Brother Kun, no matter where we are, Sister Yourong is my biological sister. In the future, when Sister Yourong comes to the county town, it is my duty to serve her. Even if she hits me or scolds me, I will not complain at all."

"No, don't worry."

Ye Kun smiled and discussed an auspicious day with Wang Po.

Wang Po actually knew how to read. She took out a handful of counting sticks, calculated the date, and said with a smile, "In five days, it will be an auspicious day."

In the Dading Kingdom, ordinary people did not have almanacs at home, but they had lunar calendars.

It is a self-made piece of letter, on which it is written whether each month is a big month or a small month. The specific date has to be calculated by oneself.

"Then let's do it in five days. Jiaojiao and I will consummate our marriage and I will invite godmother to a banquet."

Ye Kun clasped his fists to express his gratitude, then said goodbye to Jiaojiao.

Aunt Wang was naturally happy to receive the gift and curry favor with the county lieutenant. She went around the streets gossiping and announcing Jiaojiao and Ye Kun's wedding.

Ye Kun made some arrangements in the pub, chatting with everyone and getting to know them better.

By the way, the filtering device for refining refined salt has been completed.

Then, Ye Kun prepared to go to County Magistrate Liu's house.

Jiaojiao was reluctant to leave and held Ye Kun's hand: "Brother Kun, will you come back tomorrow night?"

Ye Kun leaned close to Jiaojiao's ear and smiled softly, "I'm afraid that when I come back, you won't be able to walk properly again. It just so happens that you can take a rest tonight..."

I didn't brake last night, Jiaojiao was in pain and happiness, and she hasn't recovered yet today.

After all, Jiaojiao has just reached marriageable age.

"I do." Jiaojiao pinched Ye Kun lightly.

"Okay, I'll be back tomorrow night."

Ye Kun hugged Jiaojiao and then left reluctantly.

Alas, after becoming a county lieutenant, I neglected the beauty.

When Ye Kun arrived at Magistrate Liu’s mansion, he immediately started working.

The third courtyard was allocated to Ye Kun alone.

Three little maids, all wearing brightly colored clothes, were serving on the side.

Seeing Ye Kun, the three of them hurriedly saluted.

"Don't be polite. What are your names?" Ye Kun asked.

"Tian Xiao'e."

"Qiao Yun."

"Thank you, Auntie."

The three maids answered honestly.

Ye Kun nodded and said, "Change into short shirts, we will be working later."

The three maids nodded and went to the side room to change their clothes.

All the materials Ye Kun needed were ready.

One hundred kilograms of coarse salt, two large vats, four charcoal stoves, as well as copper pots and basins, jars and cans, and large and small wooden barrels.

Ye Kun dissolved 100 kilograms of coarse salt in warm water.

Then use the three-layer filtration device to start filtering.

A layer of coarse sand, a layer of fine sand, and a layer of charcoal powder.

Coarse sand and fine sand can filter out most solid particles; charcoal can be used as activated carbon to absorb invisible impurities.

Filter out a portion and steam it immediately in a casserole.

After the water content is reduced, steam it in a copper pot and wait for crystallization.

Ye Kun was also impatient, so he produced a batch of test products first. Before dark, he actually produced two or three kilograms of white fine salt.

I dipped my finger in some fine salt and tasted it. It tasted good and all the bitterness was gone.

Ye Kun called Qin Erwu and asked him to watch the three maids operate. He took the first batch of samples and went to find County Magistrate Liu.

At this time, County Magistrate Liu was about to have dinner.

Upon learning that Ye Kun had made a sample, he hurriedly invited him in.

"My Lord, this is refined salt."

Ye Kun put down the refined salt and said, "Ask the chef at home to remake two dishes and use the refined salt just now to see how it tastes."

"Salt powder this fine? Okay, I'll try it!"

Magistrate Liu nodded and called the cook: "Use this salt to cook a chicken and a fish for me, quickly!"

Ye Kun added: "Give melon rind salad and a plate of scrambled eggs."

The county magistrate has a copper pot at home, which can be used for cooking.

The cook nodded and did it immediately.

Ye Kun sat down and drank tea with the county magistrate, and asked County Magistrate Liu to send someone to call County Magistrate Wang over.

The cook worked very efficiently. In about half an hour, she and her maids served the dishes one after another.

Ye Kun raised his hand: "My lords, please try it."

"Then...try it?"

County Magistrate Liu chuckled and raised his chopsticks.

County Magistrate Wang also picked up a piece of the cold melon rind with chopsticks and tasted it slowly.

The two of them frowned slightly at first, then their brows widened, and they no longer bothered to talk, staring like hungry wolves, and began to taste other dishes!
