I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 161 Gardenia Fragrance Pills

Before Wei Wantan could say anything, Xin Youran stood up suddenly, shook her hand excitedly and said, "Wanwan, I've got an idea!"

"I won't tell you now. I'm going to experiment first to see how it works."

"Oh, and I'll need some gardenias from your field. Don't worry, I'll pay you. Just keep a record of it."

"Hey, you..."

Wei Banban just watched Xin Youran running towards the small courtyard in the field. Well, there's no need to be so anxious. If someone didn't know, they would think the house in the courtyard was on fire.

Xin Youran went back to the courtyard first, picked up the backpack and ran to Wei Banban's gardenia field.

Leng Yue, who was practicing martial arts, only felt as if something "swooshed" towards him and then "swooshed" back.

She had no choice but to hold her breath and catch up with Xin Youran. "What happened?"

"Little Moon Moon?"

"Are you okay now?"

"Come and help me, I plan to make some incense pills and test their effects."

Leng Yue felt a headache when she heard that she had to fiddle with those flowers again.

I didn't expect that after losing his memory, Xueying would become so fond of him. The excitement was visible to the naked eye.

"Actually, you can just use the gardenias I dried last time. I'll pick some more while I have time. If it works, these fresh ones can be dried too, so we can catch up with the next batch."

"Replacing the ointment box is a lesson learned. I didn't do the work in advance..."

"I have to think of some way to remedy the situation. The flowering period is limited and time is running out."

Leng Yue did not comment on her statement, but simply snatched the backpack from her hand.

He said coldly, "Go make your incense pills, I'll take care of the flower picking."

Xin Youran hurriedly asked, "Your arm is still injured!"

"It's just a little scrape, is that considered an injury?"

Xin Youran: ...

No, sister, do you have any misunderstanding about a little scrape?

She wanted to say something, but she found that the person had already walked away...

Xin Youran had no choice but to turn back into the house and take down the storage jar on top of the cabinet.

There were five large jars on the cabinet, all filled with gardenias that she had dried last time.

As soon as she opened the lid, the fragrance of gardenia instantly filled the entire room.

These can already make quite a few incense balls.

She quickly put the lid back on, then turned and ran to the fire room, rummaging through the drawers and cabinets to find a pestle and mortar.

Then he returned to the house, picked out some of the dried gardenias, put them into the mortar and pestle, and began to crush them one by one.

After knowing that it is in powder form, take it to the fire room for use.

The next step is to make refined honey, which can bind the gardenia pollen together well.

Refining honey means refining honey and water in proportion. I have read a record in "Compendium of Materia Medica" before. The general meaning is to add 500 grams of honey to 125 grams of water, and boil it over fire until only 390 grams is left.

Conditions are limited, so I don't need a measuring cup or something. I don't ask for the best, as long as I can achieve the bonding effect.

Xin Youran still took a bowl, took out honey and water based on her previous experience, and poured them into the pot.

In fact, the best casserole for boiling medicine is this one.

Then simmer it slowly over a stove.

It seems that there are still many things that need to be purchased in the yard.

This time I'll just make the incense pills.

Refining honey takes some time, and you must pay attention to the temperature.

Make it once and store it, you can use it many times!

Xin Youran poured some of the prepared refined honey into the gardenia powder, stirred it evenly, and kneaded it into a paste.

Then she rubbed the gardenia pollen into small round pills of equal size.

Place on a plate and wait to dry.

The refined honey has a good sticky effect, and the surface of the incense balls made from it is shiny and looks pretty good.

This will lock in the fragrance and make it last longer.

The incense pills made in this way can be put into sachets to make sachet pills.

See if there are any women in the village who are good at needlework and can cooperate with us.

I'll put the sachets in Mingyuzhai to try out, and if they sell, I can share the profits with them.

As for making scented bead bracelets, it takes a lot of effort.

You have to go to a gold shop to customize hollow carved gold beads that match the size of the incense balls, and you also have to find a gold shop with which you can cooperate for a long time.

This matter needs to be considered carefully.

However, this incense ball can also be placed directly in an incense burner or hand warmer for use.

Almost every household here has an incense burner. Seeing that the incense balls were almost dried, Xin Youran put them in a jar and sealed it.

I left a few of them, went into the house, lit the incense burner, and placed the incense balls next to the charcoal fire. After a while, the fragrance of gardenias wafted out.

Xin Youran grinned unconsciously. This was the first time she successfully made incense pills!

At this time, in the flower field, Leng Yue and Wei Mayan chatted while picking gardenias.

"Leng Yue, do you think the treatment provided by my father and Yu Lang is effective?"

"She should have, hasn't she already remembered the sword dance?"

"That's true, but I always feel that her temperament is completely different from before."

"She has never been this close to us before..."

When Leng Yue heard this, she paused while picking gardenias. Yes, even though she had known Xueying for ten years, he had never entered her heart.

She always sets up a very thick defense for her heart, and once someone approaches, she will automatically wrap herself up.

He usually looks like he doesn't want strangers to approach him.

After losing her memory, she seemed like a completely different person.

In front of people she thinks she can trust, she always chatters and reveals everything in her heart.

She looked at the tree full of gardenias again, and yes, she also had her own interests and hobbies.

“Isn’t this a good change?”

At least he looks like a normal person now, doesn't he?

"How can that be bad?"

Wei Mayan quickly denied it, "I was just expressing my feelings to you!"

"And you, when have I ever seen you picking flowers?"

"Hahahaha, I used to only do jobs that required a lot of strength, like carrying manure, hahahaha."

Wei Banban ran away quickly after she finished speaking. Sure enough, someone was already angry and embarrassed.

"You still have the nerve to say that?!"

"Who said that she is a weak woman who can't carry anything on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands? She only knows how to trick me!"

The two of them started chasing each other.

Xin Youran used a small bottle to pack a few incense pills and also divided it into some gardenia tea.

When I plan to go to the capital, I will give it to Manager Xing to try.

If he thinks there is no problem, he will start making the incense balls.

After all this busy work, most of the day has passed. I don’t know if the old monster and Chu Yuming have returned yet…
