At this time, Xiao Zhao flew out from the tool shed grabbing a large basket.
"Xiao Zhao, what are you doing with the basket?" Jiang Xianzheng had vaguely heard a child's voice at home several times. When he approached, he found that there was no child, only Jiang Yingxue. Although there were no other children, Xiao Zhao, the bird, was there.
After spending some time with her, Jiang Xianzheng was absolutely certain that Xiao Zhao was no ordinary bird. What bird could understand human language and do farm work? No one. Even now, Xiao Zhao was clutching a basket dozens of times larger than it, and hardly any other bird could do that.
He strongly suspected that it was Xiao Zhao who made the child's voice. In fact, Xiao Zhao could speak. However, he tried to talk to Xiao Zhao many times, but Xiao Zhao did not respond, which made Jiang Xianzheng feel frustrated.
He also suspected that Xiao Zhao was the monster mentioned in the book, but since his granddaughter didn't say anything, he didn't ask. He wanted to see how long Xiao Zhao and his granddaughter could hold it in before they could speak out.
"I'm going to make spirit flower cookies. The basket is for picking flowers," Jiang Yingxue took the basket and said with a smile, "Grandpa, mist flowers are good for your teeth. I'll make some more for you to eat as dessert after dinner."
Jiang Xianzheng said with a smile: "Okay."
He went to the tool shed and got another basket to help pick the flowers. "How many flowers do you want to pick?"
Jiang Yingxue said, "Except for the red sugar flower and the beipu crystal flower, the other four kinds of flowers were picked."
Jiang Xianzheng was a little curious, "Why don't you pick the Dantang flowers and Beipu crystal flowers?"
Jiang Yingxue said, "Because I want to keep these two flowers for making pills."
Jiang Xianzheng was surprised: "You can actually make pills?" What other skills did his granddaughter have that he didn't know about.
Jiang Yingxue asked in surprise: "Ah? Grandpa, didn't I tell you?"
"No."
"Hey, that's what I forgot."
"You kid..."
When Lu Caiyun walked out of the room and into the yard, she was stunned.
What happened? She didn't go the wrong way. She only went in to put a vase and wash her hair, and when she came out of the garden, her hair had become so much balder.
She said in a daze: "This..."
Jiang Yingxue smiled lightly, "Grandma, I picked some flowers to make spiritual flower cookies. You can try them later to see if they are delicious."
Lu Caiyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "So that's how it is. The flowers haven't even warmed up yet. If I had known, I would have taken a picture of them with my phone as a souvenir." She felt a little regretful that the spiritual flowers blooming in the yard were gone before she could fully enjoy them.
"Next time I take pictures, these spiritual flowers will bloom again as long as they are still healthy. I will take pictures as soon as they bloom next time." The spiritual liquid for ripening spiritual plants can only be used once a month. Using it too frequently will affect the lifespan of these spiritual flowers.
She is an alchemist and a spiritual plant master. She has stored a row of storage shelves with spiritual plant fertilizers in the stone house. Even if there are spiritual plants from ten hills, it will be enough to last for a hundred years.
"Or should we use the ripening spiritual liquid?"
"No, use spiritual fertilizer to ripen spiritual liquid and it can only be used once a month."
Fertilizer? Lu Caiyun became interested. "Is your fertilizer useful for vegetables?"
"It's useful, the effect should be good."
"Then when you fertilize the spiritual flowers, I'll also use it on the vegetables."
After concluding the discussion about spirit flowers and fertilizer, Lu Caiyun offered to help make spirit flower cookies, but Jiang Yingxue declined. Lu Caiyun was busy preparing vegetables for the afternoon stall, and the family usually cooked together in the evening. But working with vegetables while making cookies would be physically and mentally exhausting, and Jiang Yingxue didn't want her to be that tired.
Lu Caiyun asked, "Then can you go alone?"
Jiang Yingxue had a determined smile on her face, "I can do it alone, and I have Xiao Zhao with me."
Lu Caiyun said: "Haha, that's fine, call me if you need anything."
After saying that, she went to work in the vegetable garden in the backyard.
They had just picked four kinds of flowers, namely Lingjing flower, Mengdie flower, Shatang flower and Wushui flower.
Jiang Yingxue separated the four kinds of spiritual flowers she had picked into four round bamboo winnowing baskets. First, she plucked the petals of the flowers and rinsed them with water. Then, she divided the flowers into two parts, one for drying and the other for making spiritual flower sauce.
"Sister, the basins are here." Xiao Zhao dragged over four basins specially used for cooking food.
"Okay, Xiao Zhao, be good~" Jiang Yingxue took the basin, rinsed it with clean water, and then put the petals of the spiritual flowers in one by one to rub out the juice.
Then, she took four large glass jars, put the four kinds of spiritual flower jams into them respectively, then poured a layer of sweet fairy honey on top, and finally covered them with lids to seal them, and put a label of the corresponding spiritual flower on the surface of each glass jar.
Under normal circumstances, flower jam needs to be placed in a ventilated and cool place for a month. However, spiritual flowers are special, so a week is enough.
"Xiao Zhao, let's go." Jiang Yingxue waved to Xiao Zhao.
"Here I come."
A man and a bird came to the space carrying spiritual flower jam and flower petals that needed to be dried.
Jiang Yingxue first set up an isolated time acceleration formation on the ground, and then placed four bottles of spiritual flower sauce and a time stone engraved with 1:30 in the middle of the formation.
With the help of the time stone and the formation, in less than five minutes, the Linghua sauce in the formation had become what it would have been in five days in the outside world.
"Okay, not bad." Jiang Yingxue removed the formation and took out the spiritual flower fermented beans.
On the other side, Xiao Zhao also cast a spell to dry the petals to the ideal state.
Then they left the space and continued making the Linghua cookies.
Jiang Yingxue first brought four large bowls and put butter in the bowls one by one. After the butter softened, she added local eggs, fairy honey and spirit flower sauce.
One person and one bird use chopsticks in their hands and on their wings to mix them evenly. After mixing evenly, sift in the gluten flour again and mix evenly.
"Huhu~" Jiang Yingxue spread four sheets of oil-paper on the dining table and placed the spiritual flower dough on them, manually shaping them into rectangular blocks. The next step required placing these oil-paper-wrapped blocks in the freezer for about an hour, but Jiang Yingxue disliked the time and trouble.
Jiang Yingxue was just about to go forward and draw the curtains of the dining room window, but Xiao Zhao had already done it before her.
Could this be considered a telepathic connection between them?
"Xiao Zhao is awesome!" Jiang Yingxue praised Xiao Zhao sincerely.
"The snow melts!" Jiang Yingxue cast a spell to freeze the "rectangle", and in just two seconds she completed the task of freezing it in the refrigerator for an hour.
The next step is to cut the "rectangle" into small, uniform pieces.
"It smells so good! Sister, I want to have a piece." The kitchen was filled with a refreshing fragrance, a combination of the fragrance of various spiritual flowers and fairy honey. Even though the biscuits had not been made yet, they were already very tempting.
"Okay." Jiang Yingxue gave Xiao Zhao a piece of each flavor of Linghua biscuits. "The biscuits will taste even better when they're ready."
Xiao Zhao is a divine bird, more powerful than mortals and monks. Mortals will get diarrhea if they eat uncooked food, but Xiao Zhao will not. Its stomach can even digest gold.
While saying "delicious", it ate all four Linghua biscuits into its stomach, feeling very happy.
