Strange love across time and space

Since Su Qixuan returned to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Su family has returned to their old life. Many ladies from powerful families sent messages to Jiang and Su Qing, inviting them to their homes. Today this family will hold a plum blossom appreciation banquet, and tomorrow that family will hold a birthday banquet. Some young ladies are more elegant and directly hold a poetry meeting. Because Su Qing's song "Shui Tiao Song Tou" at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet won the applause of the whole house, she was regarded as a talented woman by the noble young ladies in Beijing. This kind of elegant Of course, Su Qing will be invited to poetry gatherings. Su Qing was too lazy to deal with these people who were seeking influence and turned down many invitations. This gave Su Qing another reputation as a noble woman in the circle of noble ladies in the capital. However, Jiang was very happy to integrate into this kind of circle. Usually, he could go to eight out of ten posts. Su Qing could not help but ask several times, "Mom, don't you feel tired from hanging out with these long-tongued women for three days?" ?" Mrs. Jiang smiled and nodded her forehead, "What do you know! Do you think I just went to eat and drink with them and chat about family matters?" Su Qing rubbed her forehead and asked, "What else?" Mrs. Jiang said proudly, "Mom. I can learn a lot of business information from chatting with these ladies. Which businesses are profitable and where to buy the cheapest goods. Those styles of fabric dresses in Beijing sell the fastest. My mother has made a lot more money recently than before. !" He took Su Qing's hand and sat down again, "Mom plans to open two more big shops during the Chinese New Year and expand the business. In this way, we can give more betrothal gifts to your eldest brother's future wife! "Su Qing looked at Mrs. Jiang and nodded in agreement. It turns out that her mother has done so much for this family. Looking at herself, she seems to be lying flat every day, and she feels a little ashamed. She planned to go back and think about the profitable businesses in her previous life and see what she could do to help her mother.

Su Qing returned to her yard and asked someone to put the chair under the sun. The winter sun warmed her body. Su Qing closed her eyes and lazily called Phantom. Phantom is sitting next to Su Qing and drinking tea. Now the relationship between the two of them is no longer the master-servant relationship at the beginning. I don’t know when Phantom started rarely calling himself a subordinate in front of Su Qing, but more of a subordinate. , both of them can understand each other's meaning from each other's eyes, and then smile knowingly. Hearing Su Qing call him, Phantom said softly, "I'm here." Then he put down his tea cup and looked at Su Qing. Su Qing sighed, "Am I useless?" After hearing this, Phantom felt nervous. He quickly got up and squatted on one knee in front of Su Qing and asked concernedly, "What's going on? Why do you suddenly say that about yourself?" Seeing Su Qing, Without answering, he added, "You saved the emperor without asking for anything in return, and were praised by the civil and military officials of the dynasty. You also taught first aid methods to the people across the country, saving many lives. The people of Yong'an State praised you for your selflessness. You are still here. She wrote a poem at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet and was called a talented woman by the nobles in the capital. Just take out one of these and many people will never be able to do it in their lifetime. How can you say you are useless?" Su Qing did not open her eyes and said calmly. She said, "I can't help the family make money. Other women get married at such an early age like me, but I have to rely on my family to support them all my life. I'm really useless." Phantom resisted the urge to hold Su Qing's hand and said eagerly. "The thousand taels of gold that the emperor rewarded you and the two gold-inlaid jade articles are probably more than the combined salary of the master and the eldest son in their lifetime." Su Qing couldn't help but laugh. She wanted to tell Phantom that all her contributions were Steal from others, but you can't say it. Su Qing opened her eyes, lowered her head and approached Phantom and said, "I want to help my mother make some money." Phantom's heart trembled again, "No matter what you want to do, I will support you." Su Qing smiled softly, "Thank you. ." Phantom's heart almost melted at this moment. Every time Su Qing talks to him at such a close distance, Phantom has the urge to hug her. After living for more than a thousand years, it was the first time she felt the love of someone. Although she didn't get it, she felt very satisfied to be by her side every day.

In fact, Su Qing has been thinking about ways to make money since she time traveled. The first thing she thought of was making soap. She had read many time travel novels in the past that mentioned making soap to make money. The first time Su Qing used the soap here to wash her face, she found that the soap was very similar to the soap her mother made when she was a child and her family was poor and could not use soap. Later, she asked Jiang's family and found out that they were all made from soap. Made from pig pancreas, smashed and mixed with alkali. At first, Su Qing thought it was because the Su family was poor. Later, after getting to know Ding Xiang, she went to the Ding Mansion as a guest and saw that the Ding Mansion also used this kind of pig pancreas. Including Jiang's visit to the homes of so many powerful people, Su Qing also asked about it when he came back and learned that the big families also use this kind of pig pancreas, but some ladies will mix a little spice into it, which will be better. Smell some. Su Qing wanted to try the method she had learned before to see if she could make a delicate and fragrant soap.

Su Qing returned to the room and took out a charcoal pen. Yes, it was a charcoal pen. Because her calligraphy was so ugly that even she couldn't bear to look at it. On the contrary, her mother could praise her so much for the words she wrote with charcoal pen. Since then, Su Qing has been writing with charcoal pen. Su Qing first thought about the steps for making soap, then wrote them down one by one, and then showed them to Phantom. After reading, Phantom shook his head and said he didn't understand, but as long as Su Qing wanted to do it, he would arrange it. Su Qing thought for a while and called Qingzhu over. She really did. Now Qingzhu will consciously retreat as soon as he sees Su Qing and Phantom alone together. In Qingzhu's heart, he has regarded Phantom as Su. My future son-in-law. In fact, not only Qingzhu, the Su family seems to have this idea from top to bottom.

After Qingzhu came in, Su Qing asked Qingzhu to prepare the materials for making soap. Qingzhu asked doubtfully, "Miss, what is soap?" Su Qing said with a smile, "Soap is something that can replace pig pancreas. It is more delicate than pig pancreas." It's easy to use." Qingzhu asked excitedly, "Miss, can you really make such a thing?" Su Qing shook her head, "I don't know, I just want to try it first." Qingzhu happily went out to prepare.

Qingzhu first followed Su Qing's instructions and asked people in the kitchen to pick out the pine wood from the firewood and burn it to ashes. Then he put the pine wood ashes into water. The ratio of pine wood ashes to water was three to seven. Stir again until the pine ash is fully dissolved, then let it sit. Su Qing originally wanted to make a few molds for making soap, but was not sure whether it would succeed, so she asked Phantom to go to the street and buy two molds for making snacks. When Phantom bought them back, Su Qing looked at the size of the molds and the mooncakes. It's almost the same, I think it's pretty good. After the pine ash water had rested for a long time and the pine ash had settled to the lower layer, Su Qing scooped out the water on top and poured it into a large bowl, then poured in the lard prepared in advance and continued to stir. Seeing Su Qing stirring with half of her arms exposed in the winter, both Phantom and Qingzhu asked for help, but Su Qing refused. Su Qing said while stirring, "This is my first time making soap. I have to experiment by myself to achieve success." It feels better." In order to increase the hardness of the soap, Su Qing put a little more salt in it, and suddenly thought of something, she quickly asked Qingzhu to bring in the rose petals collected and dried in the summer, put them into Phantom's hands, and said softly, "Crush them. , smash it to pieces!" Qingzhu said at the side that I should go get something and crush it. Before she could say it, she saw Phantom holding the petals in her hand. In two breaths, she stretched out her hand and rose. The petals turned into two piles of rose-red powder. They were really powder! Qingzhu was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
