I didn't intend to be a Fairy

In the next month, dignitaries from Xianning City often came to visit the Taoist.

It's not that Xiao Chainiang and the Yang family's young man told others, it was difficult to hide it.

Although Xian Ning City is not small, it is only relative to this year. In fact, it is not that big. Take the street that runs from east to west at the door. In fact, it doesn’t take long to walk back and forth. This is the square of this square city. The perimeter of Fang's city has increased - the Taoist visited the Yang family. Xiao Chai Niang was so excited that many servants saw it. Later Xiao Chai Niang visited the inn twice in person, one of which was for her family who was sick and addicted to reading. The young man of the Yang family also followed, and there were even other uncles and distinguished guests accompanying him, and many people saw him.

The story of Xian Ning's visitors has spread throughout the city and beyond, and Xiao Chai Niang is also known to everyone.

In the story of Xiao Chainiang, there was a Taoist priest who brought a cat. Now there is a Taoist priest here and he also brought a cat. Isn’t it a coincidence?

Over time, people will notice it.

There are many people in the world who yearn for immortality and love mysterious things. Now that the serious stories of immortality and mysterious things are right in front of them, they can't help but come to visit.

This is not the fault of Xiao Chainiang and the young man of the Yang family.

Taoists don't care much about this either.

I go out for a walk every day and meet all kinds of people. Sometimes I go out to eat a bowl of rice, buy a fried shrimp cake, buy a brown sugar cake, or go shopping in a small shop with local characteristics. I saw him If a Taoist takes the initiative to talk to him, he will stop and chat with them for a while, and sometimes he will even take the initiative to talk to them himself.

Among all kinds of people, naturally there are also dignitaries.

I just don’t encounter them often when I’m out wandering around.

Since he would talk to traffickers and lackeys when he met them, and chat with common people when he met them, he would also chat with them if dignitaries and dignitaries came here to see them, and they would all be respectful and polite.

This process is also rewarding.

It's just that when dignitaries come here specifically, their purpose is stronger, and it's not as natural as ordinary people. But then again, sometimes ordinary people don't know who you are, and they just see that you are a Taoist and come to talk to you. Many times they have trivial purposes.

This is inevitable.

So the Taoist still went out every day, wandering around and shopping, to reduce the financial burden on the Sanhua Empress. If he didn't meet anyone when he was looking for him, it was because of fate. If he happened to meet someone when he came back, he didn't care to invite them to have a cup of tea in the inn. , ask what other scenery there is in Yunzhou, what are the strange things in Ma County, and do you know about Luchuan in the south.

Sanhua Empress still often goes fishing.

If you hear that there are any evil spirits outside Xianning City that are harming people's livelihood, please ask her to work with Yanzi to get rid of them.

It’s just that the weather is getting colder. Cats don’t like the cold after all. When they go fishing, they often bring a blanket and light a fire by the lake. If the weather is really bad and the sun doesn’t shine, she sometimes doesn’t go and stays in the house. Reading, practicing calligraphy and practicing meditation also gave her a sense of accomplishment and warmth.

Sometimes when I had nothing to do, I would lie down by the window and watch people dyeing cloth below. Sometimes I would jump down directly from the inn room to the Yang family cloth workshop, follow Xiao Chai Niang, and watch them dye cloth up close.

The slender silky cloud yarn is a must-have.

Pure plant dyeing is a process that is repeated over and over again. It is constantly passed through water and dried in the sun. The color deepens layer by layer, so that the raw silk changes from light pink to dark brown. It actually makes full use of the trace elements in the lake mud. After changing the color of the cloth and softening it with morning mist, it took at least a month or two to obtain such a layer of fine cloud gauze, which was worth as much as gold in the tribute palace.

The complex and exquisite process and the amazing wisdom contained not only shocked the calico cats, but also the Taoists.

Anyway, Taoists are not blessed to enjoy it.

Unknowingly, Xian Ning's day was a bit freezing.

In particular, there seem to be fewer sunny days. Once it is cloudy, the cold wind is howling outside.

However, the seaweed flowers in the lake outside the city are blooming well.

Previously, a rich man invited Song You to go boating on the lake. He invited Song You several times. Song You couldn't refuse, so he went with him on the lake.

I saw that the lake was blue and the waves were clear. There was a layer of water plants floating on the surface of the lake, like delicate vines, with white and yellow flowers blooming on them. They looked especially clean, delicate and spotless in the water. Some were on the surface of the water and some were in the water. Under the water, a small flower dotted the entire lake.

The blue waves were filled with flowers, and the Taoist thought it was very beautiful at that time.

Sanhua Empress couldn't help but stretch out her claws to hook her.

The rich man then told him that this was called sea cauliflower.

Since it has the word "vegetable", it means it is edible.

Local people often eat this dish.

After Song You came back, he told the innkeeper about it. The next day, the innkeeper went to the market to buy it and cooked it with him. It tasted very good.

Now that he was about to leave and start his journey again, the Taoist went to the market to buy some more, and cut two kilograms of pork by the way. When he came back, he used sea cauliflower to make a pot of smooth meat soup that was deeply ingrained in his memory.

The inn shop also started selling spicy and sour fish.

The chili peppers were not grown from the one Song You gave him, but bought from the market. He also used Song You's techniques for using other spices as a reference. Now that he knew that the Taoist was about to leave, he made a pot and added a few other spices. The side dish was given to him as a farewell to him.

The Taoist invited his tablemate to dinner.

The two of them were eating and chatting.

The strange thing is that Song You lives in Yongchun Inn. The innkeeper should be the person who knows him best and knows how powerful he is. He even knows the skills of Empress Sanhua very well, but the innkeeper rarely asks about those things. He practices immortality and works with monsters and ghosts, but he is most interested in cooking.

At first, he peeked at Song You cooking, but later he discovered that not only Song You, but also Sanhua Empress's craftsmanship was very good to him, and even the little girl was not spared from cooking.

Later, I found that the two of them didn't care, so they often asked for advice.

It's really easy to just talk about these.

There were back and forths between the two parties, and there were discussions during the consultation, which was much more interesting than some dignitaries who were just blindly exploring the way to practice immortality.

The girl sat nearby and concentrated on eating, but in fact she listened carefully with her ears raised.

"The smooth meat soup is made in my hometown, but this is the first time I use sea cauliflower to make it. My favorite way before was to use pea tips, but I didn't expect that sea cauliflower is also good."

The taste of sea cauliflower is a bit strange, tender and smooth, especially suitable for making soup.

It may be a little crispy when stir-fried, but becomes especially soft and smooth when cooked in soup. Sometimes it slips into the throat without even chewing it. It looks like kelp without any fishy smell, and is juicy without being sticky. I never thought of it. It goes very well with the smooth broth.

The meat is smooth and so are the vegetables.

On this cold day, it is really comfortable to have such a sip of steaming soup.

Especially after eating fish for nearly three months and eating a decent meal of meat, which was fat, lean and fibrous, I finally understood why fish is not considered meat in many places.

After the meal, the Taoist got up and packed his things.

"Thank you to the store for taking care of me during this time."

"Don't dare, I should thank you sir. Not only did you teach me many cooking methods, but because of you sir, the business of the shop has also improved a lot." The store owner saluted him.

"Go back to your room and pack your things first."

"Can you help me?"

"That's not necessary, the store is busy."

Back in the room, it was time to tidy up.

Sanhua Empress has quick hands and feet. She has done this kind of thing countless times. She has memorized everything she carries at home, and she is also familiar with the order of placement - she must put the least commonly used things on the road. At the bottom, put the most commonly used ones on top, and put the ones that are easy to dump where they are least likely to shake, and in the best order.

Some things are put into the quilt bag, and some things are put into the brocade bag.

The package was quickly packed away.

"laugh……"

The last step was to insert Yanzi's dagger into the gap in the quilt bag and expose the hilt. This not only made it easier for him to call for it, but also allowed passers-by to see it. Some bad guys knew that they were not easy to deal with.

"Let me take off the quilt bag. I also need to ask Lady Sanhua for a favor."

"What's the deal?"

"During this period, in addition to the store owner, Xiao Chai Niang also took great care of us. She sent us wine and food several times, but she never repaid her." The Taoist said, "The day before yesterday, I went to the top of Cangshan Mountain and picked a peach. Please ask Sanhua Empress to send it there with me."

"When did you pick a peach? Where did you pick it? Why are there peaches in cold weather?"

Sanhua Empress turned around and asked several questions in succession to express her doubts, but when she turned around, she saw a peach clearly placed in front of the Taoist.

It's a big one, almost as big as the mouth of a bowl.

"..."

The girl sniffed and could already smell the fragrance of peaches.

"Ms. Sanhua is getting smarter and smarter, and her thinking is getting sharper." The Taoist said with a smile, "Ms. Sanhua, please go for a run. Come back quickly and meet us at the door of the inn."

"Well……"

The girl took the peach.

The peach was so big, even bigger than her hand, that she had to hold it with both hands.

I looked around and saw only a blank piece of paper on the table with nothing on it.

On the other hand, the peach in my hand is constantly smelling of fragrance, and I can clearly feel the weight and texture of the peach. The plush skin is very real, and the soft touch allows people to imagine the rich juice inside.

"Gudong..."

The girl sniffed, swallowed, looked left and right, first at the door, then at the window, and finally walked to the window, blew in and opened the window.

"Take a shortcut..."

He looked outside, stood up and jumped down.

Lands easily and almost silently.

It is exactly the same as the calico cat that jumped from here before.

It actually scared the two workers nearby.

Immediately, many workers in the cloth workshop looked at her suspiciously, but they saw her walking without stopping, holding peaches in her hands, and walked straight through the cloth workshop towards the Yang family's residence.

The Taoist blew a breath, and the white paper suddenly turned to dust.

Then he packed his bags and headed out.
