Chapter 57 Taking You to Dongdan for Vacation
Lin Xiaoyue scratched her head awkwardly. She deserved to be so nosy. She could have just given Zhan Ying the ginger and jujube tea recipe and been done with it. Why did she mention the fireplace? Why did she mention nitric oxide?
For a colorless and odorless gas like this, I can't just start teaching from the chemical table, right?
Well... let them experience it vividly!
"It's hard for me to describe this. If you want to experience it, I can close the doors and windows and keep burning coal in the house. You will feel very stuffy and depressed. If it goes on for a long time, you may have difficulty breathing and die!"
Zhan Ying nodded and said, "I've seen what Master Lin said before, but I didn't expect it to be this reason! But there's nothing we can do about it. Who would burn coal with the doors and windows open in the middle of winter?"
Lin Xiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief. Zhan Ying finally didn't ask any further questions!
"Yes. If you want a recipe for a fireplace, I can draw you a diagram."
Zhan Ying glanced at Liang Jingyao hesitantly, "Master, Master, what do you think?"
Liang Jingyao nodded and said in agreement: "Then I'll trouble you, Master Lin. I can pay you to buy this blueprint."
Lin Xiaoyue waved her hand and said, "No need. I don't have to make any money. I can help more people get rid of the pain of burning coal at home, and I can be considered to be doing good deeds."
Liang Jingyao was touched and said with emotion: "Master Lin really has a compassionate heart. Jingyao should learn from you!"
Lin Xiaoyue scratched her head in embarrassment. She had merely copied the subject, and she had actually moved people by doing a good deed! She should quickly change the subject. She couldn't talk about the fireplace anymore. If she brought up some modern theoretical knowledge, she wouldn't know how to explain it.
"Hey, it's nothing! By the way, I'm going to go shopping after lunch tomorrow. Is there anything you need me to bring?"
Liang Jingyao asked curiously: "Master Lin, if you want anything, just tell Zhan Ying. Or I can buy you a maid so that it will be more convenient for her to serve you!"
Lin Xiaoyue quickly stopped Liang Jingyao's feudal and superstitious thoughts, "No! I snagged my skirt while digging winter bamboo shoots today, so I want to go out and buy some clothes. Zhan Ying still has to help you, so don't bother! I don't want a maid either. In this valley, if a delicate maid comes, who will serve me, or I serve her? Besides, I'm used to being alone and free. These are all burdens!"
Liang Jingyao knew that Lin Xiaoyue was different. Otherwise, if Jingyi had offered such an attractive condition that morning, anyone else would have gone to work for the princess's mansion long ago! Only Lin Xiaoyue dared not give Jingyi face. It really is true that there is always someone who can conquer you!
"Okay then! Just tell me what you need. I'll help you if I can. Even if I can't, I'll still do my best to help you!"
Lin Xiaoyue would definitely not be polite to Liang Jingyao, "No problem! Then I'll go back to draw the blueprints first, don't work too late."
Liang Jingyao nodded and said, "Okay, it's okay if you give me the drawings two days later. You don't have to be so anxious."
Lin Xiaoyue always believes that what she says is what she means. If she doesn't finish her plan immediately, she will suffocate to death!
So after returning to the bamboo courtyard, she found paper and pen and began to write and draw. First, she drew a complete fireplace, and then drew the internal structure of the fireplace. She drew two types of this part, one was a fireplace that burned fire alone, and the other was a dual-purpose fireplace with a grill. Anyway, she operated according to the situation.
After finishing the painting, she went to the kitchen to light the fire and cook dinner. She needed to go to bed early today and get up early tomorrow to prepare the dishes for lunch and dinner. This way, when she got home in the evening, she would just have to heat up the food and eat quickly!
She had originally planned to stir-fry the bacon in the evening, but Brother Liang seemed to like steamed eggs with bacon very much, so she beat three eggs directly on the bacon and steamed them in the big pot. She also heated up the stewed meat that she hadn't finished at noon and stir-fried a dish with winter bamboo shoots, dried tofu and black fungus.
Lin Xiaoyue took the dried tofu and black fungus from her space. Yangmingshan is so close to the capital, so after eating, she can go back to the imperial kitchen to get more. She can take whatever she wants! Sigh! The ingredients in the bamboo courtyard are really limited. If you don't pick and choose, it's easy to eat the same dish every day!
But for a foodie, Lin Xiaoyue would really be grateful if she ate the same dishes every day!
Liang Jingyao seemed to be very good at calculating time. He and Zhan Ying returned to the bamboo courtyard only when the rice was cooked.
"We're back!"
When Lin Xiaoyue heard the sound, she quickly went to ask them to come in and serve the dishes. Cold dishes would taste bland in such a cold weather!
"It's time to eat, come and serve the food!"
Liang Jingyao and Zhan Ying each took the dishes and the rice. Lin Xiaoyue saw that they couldn't hold all the food with their hands, so they held it with their elbows and walked carefully on the road. She was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry. How would they put all the food down when the time came to put it all down if they had so much?
So Lin Xiaoyue took a pair of chopsticks and chased after him.
Putting the food in their hands on the table, Lin Xiaoyue took out a piece of paper from her sleeve and handed it to Liang Jingyao, "Brother Liang, I have drawn the blueprints. There are two types. It depends on your needs. How to use them! However, this is based on what I saw others install. When you build the fireplace, you can modify it according to the actual situation. You don't have to be exactly like me."
Liang Jingyao glanced at the contents of the drawing and said with satisfaction, "Master Lin is really reliable. He draws it as soon as he says it! I'll have someone try it out. If you like it, I'll install it in your room."
Lin Xiaoyue asked in surprise, "Is it possible? Isn't it said that Yangmingshan is in a good location and not very cold in winter? If I install it in my room, will it be useless?"
"Hahaha!" Liang Jingyao laughed. "How difficult is that? I have a private courtyard in Dongdan City. If you want to warm up by the fireplace in the winter, I can take you there!"
Dongdan? Where is this?
Lin Xiaoyue asked curiously, "Is it far from here? How cold is it in winter?"
"It's quite far. It would take a month by carriage. There's the sea there, and it's the warmest city in the north. Anyway, if you get tired of staying here, we can go there for vacation."
The seaside? Dongdan? The warmest city in the north?
Suddenly, a map from her previous life appeared in Lin Xiaoyue's mind. There was a place called Dandong, and it was very close to the country where people eat kimchi. If she went there, she might be able to find chili peppers!
The pepper spray she had splashed on Cheng Feng last time was the only one from the modern era in the space. After developing the intelligent space in her previous life, she put the anti-wolf artifact she carried with her - pepper spray - into the space in order to verify whether the experiment was successful.
So if she wants to use chili peppers now, she can only go to Dongdan and experience the warmth of the fireplace!
"Okay! Then once the fireplace is installed, we'll live there for a while!"
