I Own a Garden with One Hundred Herbs - Chapter 39

Chapter 39: Playing Lute to a Cow and Explaining the Language of Tea

At Hanqing Pavilion, Bai Caoshi met the beautiful villa master for the first time.

That’s not right. With this unparalleled magnificence, there shouldn’t be any description in the original book. She really couldn’t remember.

In fact, when Bai Caoshi was reading the book, she was skipping through it. It was only because the current online novels that she was reading had a lot of unnecessary paragraphs. It was like an old lady’s foot wrap cloth, smelly and long. Because she had the same name as the supporting actress, she paid more attention to it. Therefore, she knew Ying Zhefeng’s ending very well. Instead, she had no impression of this villa master.

The sound of the zither returned to normal, it was as if the stagnation had never happened.

“Yuan Taozhu is so elegant!” Ying Zhefeng sat down on the wooden chair and picked up the Junshan Silver Brilliance that Huan Yan had brewed. “This is great tea and fun. I’m so happy that I don’t even want to go home.”

Yuan Xian smiled calmly. “Then stay for a while longer. The villa always welcomes Young Master Ying. Huan Yan, give Miss Bai some tea.”

Although it was their first meeting, it was easy to guess her identity. Yuan Xian was giving her the treatment of a VIP.

The tea leaves were like silver needles floating in the teacup, and their fragrance filled the nose.

“Miss, what do you think of this tea?” It was probably because they appreciated each other, Yuan Xian really wanted to hear the opinion of the Bai Caoshi.

Bai Caoshi took a sip and then another. It was delicious. “Villa Master, other than wolfberry chrysanthemum tea, I know almost nothing about tea. You’re playing the lute to a cow.”

It didn’t matter if Bai Caoshi called herself a cow. There was also a red bull beside her. Look at his red clothing.

Huan Yan smiled tactfully. Ying Zhefeng’s expression was ugly as if he was constipated.

Yuan Xian showed great interest. “Wolfberry chrysanthemum tea?”

Wolfberry chrysanthemum tea was the number one health drink for young people in the current era. The song also sang “wolfberries in a thermos cup.”

“That’s right. Small chrysanthemums are best suited for chrysanthemums. It would be even better if there were hao chrysanthemums.” Bai Caoshi’s eyes were shining.

One had to know that Hao chrysanthemums were a specialty of Haozhou, one of the four major medicinal capitals in China. Hao chrysanthemums were the king of the chrysanthemums, and its medicinal value was the highest.

If this villa lord could help him find Hao chrysanthemums, she could definitely exchange it for a lot of points.

Yuan Xian did not know that he had already become a free laborer in the eyes of the Bai Caoshi, a practical tool. “Huan Yan, instruct the subordinates to keep an eye out. If there are any traces of Hao chrysanthemums, send some to Miss Bai.”

If it weren’t for the fact that she was afraid of being treated as an anomaly, she would have really wanted to pose. Villa Master, you’ve gone too far. “Then I’ll thank villa master Yuan. I’ll draw a Hao chrysanthemum for Miss Huan Yan later.”

The two of them chatted happily. Ying Zhefeng felt like an outsider. He took a big sip of tea. “Then Yuan Taozhu has to move faster. In a few days, Miss Bai will follow me into the Yan Capital.”

Bai Caoshi: “…”

‘Did I agree? A melon that’s forcefully twisted isn’t sweet!’ Bai Caoshi’s happy face was now covered with frost. She cursed Ying Zhefeng a hundred times in her heart.

Yuan Xian replied with an “oh” and continued, “Then wouldn’t I be unlucky to taste the delicacies made by Miss Bai in the future? I think Miss Bai should be a local, and you have relatives at home. I wonder when you and your family will meet again?”

What did it mean to have divine assistance? Just look at Yuan Xian and you’ll know. Gratitude filled her heart as she walked down the ladder. She bowed and said, “Replying to my lord and villa master, I still have my mother and younger brother at home. It’s a great blessing to be able to go to the Yan Capital with the nobles, but my mother is too far away. I still know a little about the way of filial piety. Please fulfill my wish.”

As she spoke, Bai Caoshi, who was possessed by the drama queen, actually shed tears. Her words were so sincere that she moved people.

Ying Zhefeng was in a deadlock. He didn’t expect the little girl to be so rebellious and reject him so bluntly. “If you want, bring your mother and younger brother to the Yan Capital.”

He can easily feed two more people at his residence.

Before Bai Caoshi could say anything, Yuan Xian instructed, “Huan Yan, go and comfort Miss Bai. Young Master Ying and I still have some important matters to discuss.”

Bai Caoshi looked at Yuan Xian gratefully and left the Hanqing Pavilion.
