"Use tea leaves to soak in water, squeeze a few drops of lemon juice into it, and let it steep for an hour."
After making sure that he was not lying to him, he decisively sent him to catch up with his companions.
At the moment of his death, the man suddenly opened his eyes wide with a look of disbelief.
He was still waiting for the person in front of him to ask what lemon was, so that he might survive. In the end, he could only close his eyes fearlessly.
When Chen Li set out again, half an hour had passed. She had experimented in the space and found that the fragrance on the parchment scroll was indeed gone.
However, I haven't taken it out yet. I'm not sure whether the effect is temporary or permanent. I don't want to bring danger back, so I'd rather keep it safe in the space.
A lot of time was wasted on the road, and when Chen Li returned to Qingxi County, thirty-two days had passed. If it weren't for the things in her hands, she wouldn't have been in such a hurry.
It was noon when Chen Li returned home. The weather was already getting hot. She had seen a lot of spring scenery along the way. Now that she was back in Jiangnan, it was the best time of the year.
Chen Li was returning to Daohua Village. When she was going back, the family was having lunch. Shen Mochi, who was looking around with his head raised, saw Chen Li first.
He jumped off the stool and ran out the door, shouting as he ran: "Auntie is back!"
The three people at the table raised their heads instantly and looked towards the door in surprise.
"Ali is back!"
Chen Li caught the little fat boy who rushed over, picked him up, weighed him, and said with a smile: "Achi has gained weight."
Then she carried him into the yard, "Dad, Mom, Sister-in-law, I'm back."
Lin Cuicui had already instructed the servants to prepare the dishes and chopsticks, and to prepare two dishes that Chen Li liked.
"I've lost weight."
Shen Changshan looked at his daughter whom he hadn't seen for a month and said with certainty.
Hearing this, Lin Cuicui looked at Shen Li in a circle, nodded, and confirmed Shen Changshan's statement, "You have indeed lost weight, did you not eat well?"
"Didn't you say you'd be back within two months? It's only been a month, why are you rushing back in such a hurry?"
"Ali, even though you are young and in good health, you can't ignore your health, understand?"
Chen Li nodded in agreement to Lin Cuicui's series of nagging, but whether she could do it or not was another matter.
Shen Changshan interrupted her, "Okay, the child just came back, let's eat first, and then we'll talk after dinner."
"Yes, yes, look at my memory."
After finishing the meal, Shen Li talked with them for a while before returning to her own yard.
"An San."
"I'm here."
"Did anything happen at home while I was away?"
"Miss, everything is normal at the Shen family, and nothing unexpected happened."
Shen Li nodded, "That's good."
At this time, An San took out a letter from his arms and said, "Miss, this is the reply from the master. I have already given the letter from your elder brother to the lady."
"good."
Chen Li took it and opened it to read a few times. Pei Yu mentioned a few things in the north in the letter, all of which were mentioned very vaguely, and then said some words about himself.
He placed the letter upside down on the table and looked at An San. "How many days will it take to deliver the letter to A Yu?"
An San thought for a moment before answering, "It's just a letter delivery. It will take at least seven days."
After all, they are located in the south and the north, and the distance is so long that it is not just talk.
Of course, the seven days did not rely on people, horses, or pigeons. Pei Yu had a pair of Saker Falcons in his hands, and in case of emergency, he would use the Saker Falcons' messages.
"Is it safe?"
"It's safe. It's the master's Saker Falcon."
Chen Li took out the map she had copied and said, "This thing is very important. Do you have any hidden means to make it look like an ordinary calligraphy or painting?"
"Yes, I'll give it to the girl later."
An San didn't even raise his head. It was not that he was not curious about the very important things that Chen Li said, but as a qualified subordinate, he would not look at anything that his master did not allow him to see.
I raised my eyebrows in surprise. I just asked casually without holding out any hope, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected gain.
"Okay, go get it."
"yes."
An San quickly brought two bottles of powdered medicine, poured out one of them, added water and stirred them together, then handed them to Chen Li, "Miss, use this to apply on the paper and it will disappear. Add water to the other bottle and stir it. After applying it on the paper, it will reveal its original appearance."
After he finished speaking, he retreated very tactfully. Chen Li did as he said and experimented. It was indeed magical. Even the words written on it could be removed, and the original appearance was completely restored.
Looking at the blank paper in front of her, Chen Li picked up a pen and wrote a letter on it. It was just a few short sentences without any important content. Even if someone intercepted it, no one would care.
"An San, deliver this to your master quickly and safely."
"yes."
An San didn't go far, but stayed in the yard. He took out a small whistle and blew it hard a few times. Not long after, a Saker Falcon circled in the air and landed directly in Shen Li's yard.
An San put the letter in the letter bucket at the Saker Falcon's feet, then spoke a few words to it and patted its head to signal it to go. As a result, the Saker Falcon stood there motionless.
An San: "..."
He glared at Haidongqing with gritted teeth, then turned around and asked in a low voice: "Miss, can you give me some food?"
Chen Li stared at Hai Dongxing for two seconds, but she didn't expect that he was such a greedy person.
"What do you want?"
"It would be best if there was meat."
"Okay, wait a moment."
If you carry two slaughtered chickens back from the kitchen and hand them to the Saker Falcon, it won't even look at them.
An San lowered his voice and said, "Girl, this, it won't eat anything unless it's fed by someone familiar."
Chen Li raised her eyebrows and handed the two chickens to An San. She had done that on purpose, and the result made her quite satisfied.
An San threw the chicken directly on the lawn. The Saker Falcon lowered its head and quickly finished eating it. Then it let out a low cry and flew into the sky. It soon turned into a small black dot and disappeared into the horizon.
After dealing with this matter, Shen Lixin felt a little relieved and took a rare nap in bed.
I have been traveling all this time, and I was in a hurry, so I didn't get enough rest.
This time, Chen Li stayed at home for several days, accompanying her parents and Shen Mochi. She did not go out until five days later.
Riding on Chiyan, I plan to go and see how the business in the store is going. After a while, I have to go to Suzhou to accompany my fourth brother, so I have to make arrangements in Qingxi County in advance.
In fact, Chen Li didn't need to worry at all. Yang Gui always managed the business of the store well and rarely made any mistakes.
I have to say, this person made the right purchase. As expected of her, Chen Li has always had a sharp eye.
"Hey, what's going on? I ordered your dim sum several days in advance. I'm entertaining guests at home today, but I've been waiting for a long time and it still hasn't arrived. What's going on? Are you trying to bully customers because of your size?"
