There are too many pearls.
A big sack, for real.
The old emperor felt pain in his body at the beginning, and then turned expressionless.
Bai Zhixuan and the Queen also came to help.
A circle of people gathered around the stone mill to grind pearl powder, taking turns grinding and saying a few words from time to time. It was very pleasant.
Surprisingly, no one helped Ji Shuchen correct the memorial.
Pretending not to see Ji Shuchen's face as black as the bottom of a pot.
I had a hasty meal at noon and continued to grind pearls.
In the middle of the journey, Ji Caiyan dragged out another sack of pearls from the house.
Keep grinding.
Grinding expressionlessly.
Grinding with a ferocious face.
Grinding with a twisted expression.
When the moonlight hung high, I ground a sack of pearl powder.
It took two sacks of pearls to grind one sack of pearl powder.
It's white and looks almost like flour.
Ji Caiyan tied a knot and said under the desperate eyes of the old emperor and others, "Let's continue grinding tomorrow."
If Grandpa Huang and Grandma Huang leave here, there won’t be so many people to help.
The old emperor: ...
Queen: …
Probably only Ji Caiyan, the granddaughter, dared to instruct them to work.
Ding--
There was a sound of coins colliding.
"Grandpa and grandma, my master is looking for me, I'm going out first!"
Ji Caiyan put a sack of pearl powder in the house and tied it, and planned to dig out a bowl to make rouge gouache for Aunt Cuihua tomorrow when her grandparents were not paying attention.
Yes, just a bowl.
Just put a little bit of pearl powder. After all, it is pearls produced by Space, so the effect must be very good.
A bowl of pearl powder is enough for a long, long time.
The rest is packed in it in space.
Ji Caiyan likes to hoard things the most.
Poor Ji Youzhi didn't know that the pearl powder he had ground was enough for the small workshop to last for decades.
"go Go!"
The old emperor waved his hands in despair, not wanting to look at his precious eldest granddaughter anymore.
Tired, my arms hurt, my flesh ached.
Those two sacks of pearls were enough for him to dismantle the dragon chair and give it to Ji Caiyan.
It’s so damn valuable! the other side.
Ji Caiyan followed the jingling sound of ancient coins and performed Qinggong all the way into the nearby mountains.
It was still the location of the small water pool that Fat Tiger had blessed before, and it was also the location of the nearby spring.
The white moonlight shone on a man.
Ji Caiyan only saw the back of Master Shang Li, dressed in blue, peerless and independent.
"Master."
Ji Caiyan bowed slightly and saluted.
It is true that Ji Caiyan has modern thoughts, but after all, he has been influenced by ancient etiquette.
When you see your master, you naturally have to bow and say hello.
"No need to salute."
Shang Li did not look back, but just took a step to the side, avoiding Ji Caiyan's greeting.
Ji Caiyan lowered her eyes and looked at Master Shang Li's little movements, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Why does Master Shang Li always avoid his own salutes?
She also avoided the courtesy of her father, queen, mother and concubine.
It’s Master Shang Li who doesn’t like the fireworks of the world, don’t you like it!
Ji Caiyan felt that she had a good guess.
I think I'd better not salute next time and just say hello.
"Master, are you looking for a disciple?"
There are still a few days left before the teaching day that Master Shang Li said.
Unexpectedly, Master came over early.
As mentioned before, classes are held once every ten days.
"Have you eaten dinner yet?"
Shang Li turned around at this time and suddenly asked.
"No, I came over quickly when I heard the sound of Master's ancient coins!" Ji Caiyan scratched his head.
Shang Li's face was facing the moonlight, so Ji Caiyan couldn't see the expression on his face.
But I can feel that the aura emanating from Master Shang Li is extremely gentle.
"Teach again after dinner."
Shang Li's eyes fell on the jade pendant Ji Caiyan held at the corner of her skirt.
The goose yellow dress swayed in the wind, the jade pendant swayed between the corners of the skirt, and the flower rope almost integrated with the corners of the skirt.
A white jade cicada hangs from the beautiful flower rope.
Shang Li's slender fingers gently pressed the purse at his waist.
In the purse, two jade cicadas lay quietly.
The jade cicada was carved by Ji Caiyan and his jade.
The outline, size and shape of the three jade cicadas are exactly the same.
It's as if it was made by one person, exactly.
The cicadas chirping that year were not for him.
The slender fingers slowly came down and pointed to the ground aside.
Only then did Ji Caiyan see two big fish lying there with their mouths still opening and closing.
"Master, just wait and eat!"
Ji Caiyan's eyes lit up instantly.
The master passed down the Yi Sect inheritance to him, so that he could become a half-immortal, and his master's kindness was as great as Mount Tai.
I was thinking that I couldn't repay Master, so I might as well grill fish for Master.
Moreover, she also likes to eat fish.
Ji Caiyan happily took out the dagger he received from Ji Shuchen. The dagger was inlaid with exotic gems.
It's Ji Shuchen's little baby.
Ka Ka Ka! Ji Caiyan used a dagger to scrape off the fish scales.
Ji Shuchen wasn't here anyway. If she washed it and rinsed it with water, Ji Shuchen wouldn't know that she used Ji Shuchen's precious dagger to scrape the fish scales.
This is not the first time Ji Caiyan has done this.
As long as Ji Shuchen is out of sight, Ji Caiyan and Bai Zhixuan will use this sharp dagger to scrape and chop various things.
Not to mention, the quality of this dagger called "Bing Hua" is quite good.
At least there is no curling blade until now.
Shang Li sat aside and lit a fire.
The warm light of the fire fell on the two people.
Neither of the two people spoke, only the sounds of fish scales being scraped and the crackling of matches burning.
Ji Caiyan found a wooden stick and skewered the fish.
I was just about to use my sleeves to take out the seasoning and sprinkle it on.
An oil paper bag was handed to Ji Caiyan.
"There's salt in this, just put salt in it."
When Ji Caiyan took the oil paper bag, Shang Li already had the skewered fish in his hand.
Roast on the fire.
Sizzle sizzle.
The fat of the fish sizzled as it was grilled by the fire.
Sprinkling some salt on it makes the flavor even more intense.
Ji Caiyan sat aside and waited obediently.
Looking straight at the grilled fish.
She's not greedy, she's hungry.
Shang Li looked at Ji Caiyan's expression, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said comfortingly, "It'll be fine right now."
With that said, he turned the fish over.
Continue to bake.
The process of waiting for delicious food is always excruciating.
Ji Caiyan didn't know why. It was just an ordinary grilled fish with only some salt sprinkled on it, but why it smelled so good.
It seemed to be more fragrant than the grilled fish she made herself in the space.
His white fingers occasionally rolled the grilled fish.
He is extremely skilled at grilling fish, even better than Chef Li in the Imperial Kitchen.
The heat is also well controlled.
"Master, do you often cook grilled fish yourself?"
Ji Caiyan really didn't understand her master, whom she had only met a few times.
Just looking at his face, I think he is a different person.
Now, Ji Caiyan felt that the master might be a cold yet warm foodie, and he was very knowledgeable about eating.
