Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree
Chapter 66 The Young Master and the Jinyiwei Leader 27
Chunsheng was drinking a cup of milk tea happily. Looking at the pile of things on the table, he asked curiously, "Master, why did you buy so much? Although this red bean milk tea tastes good, it's too much. Besides, the kitchen should be able to make it. It shouldn't be difficult."
Even though he is not very good at cooking, he can roughly taste what the milk tea is made of. It is nothing more than milk and tea leaves. And the tea leaves should not be some expensive tea, otherwise it would not be sold for such a small price.
It tastes sweet, probably because sugar has been added to it. There are also various flavors, probably because various things have been added to it, for example, the cup in his hand probably has red beans added to it.
“Buy something new and drink it occasionally. It tastes pretty good, doesn’t it?” Mu Qing casually put the milk tea he had taken a few sips of on the table. At first, he was quite tempted by the milk tea, but after drinking it, he found that it tasted so different from the milk tea he drank in the previous world.
It's too sweet, the milk taste is too bland, and the tea is also a little bad. It tastes all sweet, and it's a bit greasy if you drink too much.
However, for ancient people who had never drunk milk tea, it was indeed a delicious drink.
Mu Qing rinsed his mouth and had no interest in tasting other flavors of milk tea. He pushed the milk tea aside and took the snacks he had just bought.
In fact, the reason why he was attracted to the store opened by the heroine was because of the overbearing aroma of this snack.
Mu Qing took a bite of the greasy red strip. It was oily, spicy, and a little numb. It was so delicious that Mu Qing was drooling. It turned out that spicy strips were delicious!
I didn't expect that the heroine had some skills and could actually make spicy noodles, and they tasted pretty good. It tasted similar to what Mu Qing ate in the previous world, spicy and chewy junk food, so delicious that it was addictive!
"Master, what kind of snack is this? It smells so strong! But the smell makes me drool." Chunsheng asked curiously, looking at Mu Qing eagerly. He smelled the fragrance when he just bought it, but he didn't expect that the fragrance would become stronger after he bought it!
"This is spicy strips, delicious! There are three servings of these things in total, you can take one for yourself, and take my drink and share it with others!" Mu Qing said while eating, and did not forget to wipe his fingers after finishing.
"Yes, young master!" Chunsheng nodded happily.
There was a sudden knock on the door, and a maid in plain clothes said nothing.
"What's the matter?" Chunsheng immediately became more serious and asked.
"It's ready in the evening. Master, do you want to eat outside or have the food delivered to your room?" the maid asked with her head lowered.
"Bring it to me!" Mu Qing looked at the sky outside and said without hesitation, "Oh, and bring me another plate of spicy food."
"Yes!" The maid nodded and turned to leave.
"Master, I'll take these things down first." Chunsheng stood up and said as he put away the things on the table.
"Well, leave the snacks I bought at the restaurant today. I'll eat them when I'm hungry later in the evening."
"it is good."
……
When Qin Yu came back, Mu Qing had finished dinner and was sitting under a tree, drinking tea and looking at the stars.
"Why are you staying outside? Aren't you afraid of the mosquitoes?" Qin Yu walked over and asked curiously.
“We ate a bit too much for dinner. It’s too hot. It’s a bit cooler under the tree.
This is the new prescription I asked the doctor to prescribe. I just wanted to try it out to see if it can repel mosquitoes. How is it? It tastes good, right? "Mu Qing pointed to the stove beside him and asked with a smile.
"It smells okay." Qin Yu said as he sat down next to him. Sitting on the recliner and looking at the bright starry sky, Qin Yu couldn't help but sigh.
So comfortable!
"What's wrong? Do you have a lot to do today?" Mu Qing asked as he poured a cup of tea and handed it to Qin Yu.
It's rare to see him looking so tired. Could something have happened again?
"There's not much to do, I'm just a little tired." Qin Yu closed his eyes, feeling the coolness in the air, and couldn't help but relax his body.
After a few minutes of rest, he continued, "Actually, it's still about the snowstorm in the north. Although the emperor has sent people to provide disaster relief in time, the snowstorm is a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster, so all we can do is comfort the victims and reduce their losses.
There is nothing going on in the north right now. Everything is fine and going smoothly according to plan.
But today we suddenly received news that someone was spreading rumors that the north was hit by a snowstorm and that there were heavy casualties. The most important thing is that many people believed it.
People are in a state of panic now, and many have begun to scramble for supplies and drive up prices, fearing that the snowstorm will affect the capital."
Qin Yu's face was full of worry after he finished speaking. If the people spreading these rumors were rebels, he could still lead people to arrest them.
But the ones who spread these were just ordinary people, and the source could not be traced. For a while, the Jinyiwei had no way to deal with it. They couldn't just arrest all those people and put them in jail!
If that happened, the prison cell would probably be bursting. After all, it's not just three or five civilians, but three to five hundred.
While Mu Qing was fanning Qin Yu, he was thinking of a strategy in his mind. Suddenly he thought of something and burst into laughter.
"Zijin, you don't have to worry about the snowstorm. After all, facts speak louder than words. They can see for themselves whether there are disaster victims in the north.
Moreover, I met a group of people when I went out to eat today. I think they should be very helpful to you. Maybe the snowstorm in the north can be solved soon. "
"Who?" Qin Yu asked puzzledly.
"They are people from the north. Although I haven't talked to them, judging from their appearance, they are looking for court officials. I guess you should be able to meet them tomorrow!" Mu Qing guessed.
"?"
Facing Qin Yu's puzzled look, Mu Qing did not say anything more. On the one hand, he wanted to give him a surprise, and on the other hand, he was just guessing.
"When I went out to eat today, I accidentally discovered a newly opened shop. The drinks they sell there taste pretty good. I brought some back. Zijin, please try it and see how it tastes." Mu Qing said with some anticipation, thinking of the milk tea he brought back.
"Beverages? Are you talking about alcohol?" Qin Yu asked curiously. In this winter, it was probably only alcoholic beverages that were for sale. After all, other things would probably freeze quickly.
"It's not alcohol, it's a dessert made from milk and tea leaves. It tastes sweet, but I think it's a bit too sweet. How do you like it?
Do you like it? If you like it, you can buy more next time. It’s quite warm to drink this in winter.” Mu Qing said as he handed over a few cups of milk tea that were still warm.
"So much?" Qin Yu was a little surprised when he looked at the big and small bottles. He picked up a bamboo tube, opened it and took a sip. A sweet milky taste instantly came up, and finally there was a faint tea fragrance.
The first sip tastes good, but after drinking too much, it feels a bit greasy, especially since brown sugar is added to it, making the taste even sweeter.
"I think it's a little too sweet, but if it's ordinary people, they should still be willing to buy it." Qin Yu commented. Although he thought it was a little too sweet, for ordinary people, drinking a cup of this should be more useful than drinking a bowl of porridge.
"Well, but its price is still a bit expensive for ordinary people." Mu Qing nodded. Nowadays, milk is cheap, sugar is cheap, and similar tea is also cheap, so the milk tea made tastes very good, not too sweet, and not too bitter.
But now is ancient society, sugar is expensive, milk is expensive, and better tea is also expensive, but these are all necessary ingredients for making milk tea. If you omit all of these, even if the taste is good, it will not be as delicious after all.
Nowadays, milk tea is cheap for wealthy people, but it is too sweet. It is better to eat two pieces of dessert than drink it.
For ordinary people, although milk tea tastes good, it is a bit too expensive. Instead of drinking milk tea, it is better to buy two pounds of meat and stew it at home.
It seems that the heroine's milk tea business is not doing well! I'm afraid that if it weren't for the spicy strips, her shop would go bankrupt sooner or later.
However, if this is the case, then why in the original story line, the heroine of the novel was able to make a fortune from this and even have her fame spread throughout the Great Zhou?
A hint of doubt flashed across Mu Qing's eyes, but before he could think about it carefully, his thoughts were interrupted by Qin Yu beside him.
"Are you going out for a walk tomorrow?"
"Is there anything going on tomorrow?" Mu Qing asked doubtfully. It was not time for Zijin to rest yet. There were no festivals or celebrations in the Great Zhou these two days.
"Didn't you go to distribute porridge a while ago? Now the court's supplies have arrived, and the people have received relief. Although they are not very wealthy, at least they will have no problem getting through the winter.
They want to thank you, so they plan to hold a small lantern festival tomorrow night. Do you want to go and see it? I heard it's quite lively. "Qin Yu explained.
"Of course I'll go and see such an interesting thing, but I don't seem to have received any news about it." Mu Qing's eyes lit up. He loved the Lantern Festival, but it seemed that the people didn't invite him.
"Of course they want to invite you, but you usually either go out to eat or stay at home, so they can't see you. Last time you ran away after distributing porridge. Apart from knowing that you are from the Mu family, they don't know anything else about how to invite you.
Your invitation was sent to the Mu Family Business. The shopkeeper should have wanted to tell you, but he didn't see you, so he asked me to tell you. "Qin Yu said helplessly, a young rich man, don't tell others to go out and eat, drink and have fun!
At least you should go out and socialize more, connect with people of your own age, go to tea parties, go out for an outing, etc.
But Qingqing stays in Mu's house all day except for eating. She never goes out of the house or comes in. It seems that she is almost catching up with other girls.
Mu Qing nodded. It seemed that he missed the shopkeeper when he went out today, so the shopkeeper failed to tell him.
Facing the doubt in Qin Yu's eyes, Mu Qing explained: "Actually, I don't know where to go. I don't like long journeys because it's very tiring."
As for whether he is bored or not, as a plant, especially a plant with roots that penetrate deep into every place, it can be said that whatever he wants to know, there will be other plants to tell him.
Even if he stayed in the room and didn't go out, he could still know what was happening thousands of miles away, but he rarely took the initiative to learn about it. After all, although these things wouldn't burst his trunk, it would still be annoying if all kinds of news appeared at the same time.
"Don't you like famous mountains and rivers and read various geography books the most?" Qin Yu was a little confused. The most common books on Mu Qing's desk were about various plants and local customs and habits.
He had always thought that Mu Qing would like all kinds of scenery, whether it was the endless sea, the dry and hot desert, the lush forest, or the towering mountains...
"I do like all kinds of beautiful scenery, I also like all kinds of delicious food, all kinds of new things. But I also like staying in one place. As for those beautiful scenery, in fact, it is enough to just see them. It is not necessary to go there." Mu Qing said while lying on the chair. When he was a tree before, he could just control the wood world to go wherever he wanted. But now that he has become a human, it is a little inconvenient.
If a person wants to go to another place, he has to take a long carriage ride or walk for a long time, which is really unfriendly to him.
"Is that so? That makes sense. What kind of scenery do you like best?" Qin Yu asked.
"I like peace the most, I love the color green and all kinds of bright and beautiful colors, I like small animals, and I like tranquility." Mu Qing looked at Qin Yu and said word by word.
Looking at Mu Qing's eyes, Qin Yu suddenly felt a little excited for some reason, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
Looking at the starry sky above his head, Qin Yu said softly.
"Then as you wish."
……
There was silence in the court, and officials stood on both sides, waiting for the emperor to appear.
"The Emperor has arrived!" A somewhat delicate voice sounded, and everyone knelt down immediately. Above their heads, a yellow figure sat on the dragon throne.
"My dear ministers, if you have something to report, please report it. If not, please leave the court."
"Your Majesty, several northerners suddenly appeared in the city yesterday. They were dressed in rags. The people said that they were disaster victims from the north and that a large number of disaster victims would rush to the capital. The people were in a panic because of this." An official stepped forward first.
“Your Majesty, there were indeed a few northerners in the capital yesterday, but they were not disaster victims, but officials and a few civilians from the north.
They came here not to ask for help, but to report."
