Chapter 704: In your eyes, a forced melon is not sweet?
Because she was leaving soon, Jiang Wan did not go out for the past few days. Instead, she stayed in the mansion writing recipes for medicinal food.
She wanted to take Muxiang away, so she had to train a few more experts in making medicinal food.
So these days, the people coming and going in her kitchen were all sent by various shops, and Cheng Jin even came as well.
He studied hard, frowning from time to time, but what he made was still inedible.
Fuling couldn't help but feel a little disgusted, "Cheng Jin, you don't have this talent, you should let the people in the shop learn it well."
"If I don't have this talent, can't I just work hard?"
Cheng Jin retorted stubbornly, then glanced at Jiang Wan secretly. Seeing that she didn't react, he sighed.
"You're forcing yourself."
Fuling couldn't stand it anymore, "You are a young master from a wealthy family, and the Cheng family is the richest. You can have any kind of talent you want.
Go find a few talented people and learn from them, and you can still make a lot of money."
"Is it that in your eyes, a forced melon is not sweet?"
Cheng Jin put down the spoon in his hand. The medicinal food he made was indeed hard to swallow. Even he himself found it extremely unpalatable.
"yes."
Fuling didn't reply to him, but carefully identified the herbs in her hand.
Jiang Wan had heard the argument between the two a long time ago. She advised, "Cheng Jin, the herbs you wasted in the past two days are enough for an ordinary family to chew for a year."
It wasn't that she felt sorry for the medicinal herbs, but she really didn't want to see the two of them continue to compete.
"That's all."
Cheng Jin put down the spoon in his hand, without looking at Fuling, and said to Jiang Wan seriously:
"Our Cheng family is going to Jiangnan to purchase goods. I mentioned it to the prince. He asked me to take him with him on this trip."
Jiang Wan: ???
Poria: ...
"Are you sure?"
Jiang Wan kindly reminded him, "New Year's Day is coming soon, aren't you going to celebrate it with your family?"
"I am sure."
Cheng Jin nodded fiercely, "I'll go back and pack my luggage now, you guys can study slowly."
He ran away after saying this, and Fuling was so angry that she almost dropped the spoon in her hand.
"Uncle Junior Master, do you think he did it on purpose?"
"It's hard to say."
Jiang Wan said seriously, "What if they really have business to do in Jiangnan?"
"Too."
Fuling said angrily, "Anyway, I won't pay any attention to him. Let him do whatever he wants."
Although she said this, Jiang Wan found that the corners of her mouth slightly raised. Hiss, she is really being stubborn.
Three days later, Jiang Wan held a farewell banquet. In order to promote medicinal food, she invited many people this time.
Although a herbal medicine shop has opened in Kyoto, everyone thinks that medicine is partially toxic, so business is average.
However, several people who believed in Jiang Wan's medical skills still came to inquire about her, such as the eldest princess and Mr. Chu.
The Song family was the first to arrive. Madam Song held Jiang Wan's hand and said, "Wan Wan, if there is anything else you can help with, just let me know.
We are a family, we have to help each other.”
"It's ready."
Jiang Wan's eyes were curved. She was holding Mrs. Song's arm, while Chu Qi was holding Jiang Wan's arm beside her.
Song Jiuli said sourly: "Sister Wanwan, there is no place for me by your side now."
“We’re all family.”
Mrs. Song glared at her unhappily and said, "Behave yourself today and don't rush me."
Sheng Yi was ready to come and propose marriage, but there were not many people in Kyoto who knew about their relationship, and Madam Song didn't want her daughter to look down on her.
"I know, I know."
Song Jiuli responded with her eyes rolling around, obviously waiting for Sheng Yi's arrival.
Mrs. Song was so angry that she complained, "This man hasn't even married yet, but he's already flown over."
"I'll watch her for a while."
The affair between Chu Qi and Song Jiuchi has been exposed, and Mrs. Song has also brought people to the Chu family to propose marriage.
Although the two have not officially gotten engaged, everyone in Kyoto knows about her and Song Jiuchi, and now the two have become more open about their relationship.
"Li'er, Chuchu, you are all family, don't be polite, I will go and greet the princess."
Jiang Wan saw the eldest princess from afar and quickly asked the two of them to take good care of Madam Song.
"Don't worry, we are here."
Chu Qi is more reliable than Song Jiuli. She has a cheerful personality and is actually loved by many ladies and girls from aristocratic families.
"aunt."
Jiang Wan walked forward with a smile. Everyone was bowing and she was already helping the eldest princess walk inside.
Princess Duanhe supported the eldest princess on the other side. After a period of rest, her body has recovered almost completely.
At least there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with the appearance.
"Didn't you bring Rui Rui with you?"
Jiang Wan quite likes little girl Ruirui, she is cute and well-behaved.
"It was cold, and she played around and caught a cold, so I let her recuperate in the mansion."
Princess Duanhe sounded helpless, but she wasn't worried at all. It was obvious that Ruirui's cold wasn't serious.
"I asked someone to make some candies that children like. You can take some with you when you go back later."
Jiang Wan was really concerned about the little girl Ruirui, and they walked in chatting and laughing.
The current emperor's harem is still empty. If you count them carefully, the eldest princess is the most noble woman in Dafeng at this time.
Jiang Wan naturally arranged her to sit in the main seat, with Madam Song as her companion.
Soon, many people came to the banquet hall one after another. Jiang Wan is now Princess Yongle.
No matter who it is, they have to be courteous to her when they see her.
Even those who disliked her before now shamelessly praised Jiang Wan for her foresight and for breaking away from the group of bad apples in the Jiang family.
"The princess is smart. She knows that the Jiang family are not good people. She has foresight."
"Now the good days have come, Princess. Once you marry the prince, no one will dare to bully you."
"I really envy the princess. Not only is she protected by the regent, but even the emperor calls her sister."
“…”
They were all flattering words, simply trying to get Jiang Wan to say a few good words in front of the emperor.
Many girls were eyeing the position of the head of the harem, and they all tried their best to perform in front of her and the eldest princess.
Jiang Wan did not argue, but just listened with a smile. The eldest princess was even more shrewd and changed the subject in a few words.
This time, the male guests invited by Jiang Wan were in another courtyard. Song Jiuyuan was in charge of the reception. After everyone had some fruits together, the main event finally began.
The servants brought in small earthenware jars one by one, and the rich aroma spread throughout the banquet hall.
Seeing everyone's puzzled looks, Jiang Wan smiled and explained, "I recently opened a new herbal medicine shop in Kyoto.
It just so happens that everyone is here today, so let’s try some of these soups together, they are all nourishing and beauty-enhancing soups.”
She opened the lid of the earthen jar for the princess, and immediately the rich fragrance came to her nose again.
"Aunt, yours is different from theirs. It's a medicinal meal I made especially for you. It can help you sleep well."
A few days ago, she discovered that the eldest princess often suffered from insomnia, so she specially prepared medicated food.
"Wanwan is thoughtful."
The eldest princess was quite touched. No matter what the taste was, she was moved by Wanwan's sincerity.
The maid behind her took out a small bowl and scooped out a small portion of soup. The eldest princess picked up the spoon under everyone's nervous gaze.
