March is the peak flowering season. The mountains are filled with peach blossoms, pear blossoms, cherry blossoms, etc. From a distance, you can see flowers of various colors hanging on the branches of the trees, bright white, delicate pink, and warm red.
Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi walked into a place where mountain flowers were in full bloom. A gust of spring breeze blew, and petals flew all over the sky. The scene was as beautiful as a dream.
Jiang Shi said gently, "Now is not the time for red and blue flowers to bloom, so we can't make rouge for now. Let's make lip balm first. We'll pick flowers of the same color as Tan Qi's favorite lip balm."
Yu Tanqi looked around. Although there were many blooming flowers, there were actually not many that could be used to make lip balm. She could only choose pink and red. After all, other colors would not look good on the lips.
"Peach blossoms, they are brightly colored."
Jiang Shi added, "You can also pick some other petals and use them to make cakes for Tan Qi."
Yu Tanqi's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay."
She gets excited when something sweet is mentioned.
Jiang Shi smiled.
Each of them held a basket and picked flowers, just like they caught fireflies in a glass jar last night.
Yu Tanqi found it very interesting, feeling like a spring outing.
In addition to the blooming wild flowers in the mountains and forests, many wild fruits are also gradually ripening.
She looked up curiously at the bunches of small red fruits on the tree. The fruits piled together looked like miniature grapes or small strawberries.
"What kind of fruit is this? Can I eat it?" It looks a little familiar.
Jiang Shi looked up and after a moment's thought, he said, "This is raspberry. It tastes sweet and sour and can nourish the liver and kidneys."
"I want to eat, can I?"
"sure."
They said they were picking flower petals, but in the end the basket contained not only flower petals, but also various wild fruits, wild vegetables and mushrooms.
Yu Tanqi saw something familiar and asked Jiang Shi, "Zi'an, what is this?"
Jiang Shi recognized it at a glance: "This is bracken, sweet, slightly bitter, and cold in nature. It can clear away heat and detoxify, promote dampness removal, and moisten the intestines."
Yu Tanqi asked again: "Can I eat it?"
"Of course, but doesn't Tan Qi dislike bitter food?" Jiang Shi knew Yu Tanqi's preferences almost perfectly.
"But it looks good. I want to eat it."
She had actually eaten bracken in the 21st century. Because they were poor, the orphanage would go to the wild to pick wild vegetables every spring. Among all the wild vegetables, she thought bracken was the only one that tasted good.
"What is this?" Yu Tanqi asked, pointing at the mushrooms on the ground that looked very familiar to her.
"This is the crystal cap powder gill mushroom, also known as the pear tree mushroom and the apricot tree mushroom. It has a crispy and sweet taste."
"I want to eat."
…
At 5:15 am, the two of them went into the mountain with empty baskets, and at 2:15 pm, they came down with full baskets.
Among them, only Yu Tanqi and Jiang Shi's baskets were filled with beautiful flower petals, while the baskets of Linlang and the other three were filled with wild fruits, vegetables and mushrooms.
Yu Tanqi sighed, "Zi'an is very knowledgeable and knows everything. Even if I throw you into the mountains and give you nothing, you won't starve to death."
Jiang Shi smiled and said, "It never hurts to read more books. Tan Qi also likes reading, so he should know a lot."
"But my memory is not very good, I can't remember so much." She felt a little guilty because the book she read was not a serious book.
Ever since Taohua bought her the popular storybooks in Beijing, she has had several more book boxes to store the storybooks. Each storybook inside is more exciting than the other, and even more blushing and heart-pounding than the erotic novels she used to read in bed.
In addition to fairy tales, there are even fan fictions.
She recently finished reading a fan fiction about Jiang Shi. Although the author designed Jiang Shi's character as a weak and beautiful boy who fell down after being pounced on, the heroine's character was enthusiastic and proactive. She was also his fiancée since childhood, so she was able to put herself into the story.
In the storybook, Jiang Shi and the heroine are a weak man and a strong woman. In ancient times, this might be a somewhat strange sexual fetish, but it was really exciting, causing her to feel something was wrong when she looked at Jiang Shi.
Fortunately, Jiang Shi didn’t know that someone was writing fan fiction about him.
She also wanted to say to people in the 21st century: "You are really too feudal! You can't even write below the neck. Look at the ancients!"
…
Seeing the wild vegetables in the basket, Liu asked in surprise, "Do the prince and the young lady want to eat some wild vegetables?"
Yu Tanqi nodded slightly: "Well, has the kitchen started cooking?"
"I've already started cooking, but if the two masters want to eat, I can naturally make two more dishes."
"Then I'll trouble you."
"It's no trouble, it's too polite, young lady."
Chen Si stood aside, crossing his arms and muttering sarcastically, "You're really a city person. All the wild vegetables you've never tasted are fresh."
Jiang Shi glanced at him, pursed her lips slightly and said nothing.
Chen Si inexplicably felt a slightly cold gaze falling on him. He frowned and subconsciously looked at Jiang Shi.
Jiang Shi withdrew her gaze, her fair and beautiful face still gentle, as if it was just Chen Si's illusion.
But if it's the second time, it's not an illusion.
Chen Si pursed his lips, his eyes falling on the baskets filled with flowers in their hands, and continued to speak rudely in a low voice: "You even ran to the mountains to pick flowers. Do you think you are a delicate little girl?"
He stared at Jiang Shi closely.
Jiang Shi's expression did not change, as if he did not hear his voice, and even ignored him, walking towards the well with Yu Tanqi.
The young man's gentle and pleasant voice sounded: "Before we can eat, let's go wash the flower petals. After lunch and nap, the flower petals will be dry, and we can start making lip balm."
Didn’t you hear?
Still don't care?
A trace of confusion flashed across Chen Si's eyes.
