Chapter 7 There’s meat in everyday’s dishes.


“I need figs, deciduous needles…“ Qin Shuang listed out forty herbs and reports all the herbs needed for the medicinal potion.

The man, listening to Qin Shuang reported a series of herb names, stood there in a daze at a loss. Qin Shuang carefully asked:

"What’s the matter?”

The guy suddenly woke up from his daze, crying and laughing and said, “Go, go home and play, don’t mess around here.”

“How am I messing around?” Qin Shuang asked inexplicably.

“A lot of the herb names you said I’ve never heard of, what, are you not here to mess around?”

“How could it be?” Qin Shuang is stunned, these herbs have seven kinds she has picked in the field, how can they not have? In her mind, it should be Tianqin town is too remote, naturally do not understand so many herbs. And she knew that the land of the Martial mainland is vast, each empire for the name of herbs is often different, even in an empire, some regions are called differently, think of this, said in a soft voice:

“Can I see for myself?”

After all, Qin shuang is also a princess, the guy did not dare to overdo it, but still worried to ask: “You are really not making trouble?”

"Really not!” Qin Shuang shook her head vigorously.

“Well…….Come in and have a look, be careful, don’t mess with the herbs.”

"Thank you!”

A smile appeared on her face and carefully went into the counter, one by one opening the box on the medicine cabinet to see a variety of herbs. One in a row opened three boxes did not find their own herbs, Qin Shuang’s heart can not help but have a trace of anxiety, is there really none of their own needed herbs.

When she opened the fourth box, she lit up. Turned her head to the guy called: “This is not a fig?”

“This is called a fig?” The guy looked at Qin Shuang with an idiotic look: “This is called wu xu leaf. Your Highness, you’re not sick, are you?”

Qin Shuang ignored the bad words of the man, she also knew that the people here are very despised her in their heart, no strength, there is no guard around, and fat like a pig, at this time her heart is happy. Sure enough, there are herbs that you need here, but with different names. The guy saw Qin Shuang there dazed smiling, can’t help but go to Qin shuang in front of the hand to put on her head, Qin Shuang woke up, raise her hand “pah” to knock off his hand, said:

“I’m not sick!”

“How can you talk nonsense?” The guy asked strangely.

“How much money is it for this leaf?” she asked.

“This is cheap, its only ten copper coins.”

Qin Shuang pushed the box up and pulled the next one.

"What’s the name of this herb?”

“Pugen roots.”

“How much is it?”

“This one needs one or two silvers.”

“What’s the name of this herb?”

“Roland Tenn.”

"How much is it?”

“28 silver.”

“What’s the name of this herb?”

“Raw gra.s.s.”

“How much is it?”

“Five copper coins.”

"What’s the name of this herb?”

“Dragon whiskers.”

“How much is it?”

“Two hundred and sixty silver taels.”

”…………“

”…………“

Half an hour later, Qin Shuang of the boxes in the medicine cabinet turned over one, here she found twenty-eight herbs, and then she drew the remaining herbs in shape to ask the man. The man answered her one by one, and told her that the herbs were in the nearby mountains, but looked at Qin Shuang more and more strangely, and finally could not help but ask:

"Your Highness, why do you ask of these useless gra.s.s?”

“Nothing?” Qin Shuang filters through the names of the five prescriptions in the mind, and discovers that the herbs that can be matched and can only be bought by herself are the herbs that are native. The three herbs already in place no longer need to be purchased, and they don’t have to be bought, because in the eyes of people in this town, it’s useless gra.s.s, everywhere on the side of the road.

The remaining silver from the purchased herbs was put in the book case, then left and walked towards the house.

At this time the day has gradually turned dark, Qin Shuang came to the door, see that the door that has been broken has been simply repaired, look at the rough craft Qin Shuang knows that it is the wet nurse hand-to-hand repair.

Sighing, gently pushed the door away and went in, and saw the wet nurse was in the yard. Hearing the door of the courtyard, Qin Ying looked back to see Qin Shuang, then smiled and said:

“Shuang’er we’re going to eat meat today.”

“Meat?” Qin Shuang sniffed, and indeed the air filled with the smell of meat, so that Qin Shuang couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of water.

“Yeah!“ Today I saw Xiù lady, she hunted two rabbits in the mountains, gave me one. The meat I’ve been braising in the pot, and I’ve been able to sell two copper coins by drying the rabbit skin.”

“Xiù lady?” The memory of Qin Shuang appeared Xiù niáng’s information.

Xiù niáng, the full name is called Li Xiù niáng, family situation is common, 2 yrs older than Qin Shuang. Although the name is Xiù niáng, but has never taken embroidery needles(Xiù translates directly to embroidery) but often takes bows and arrows to the mountains hunting. In Tianqin town, every time she sees Qin Shuang is a disgusted look, but the relationship with the wet nurse is very good.

Put down the bookcase, sitting on a small stool, looked a little dazed to ask: “Why didn’t she come home to play?”

“Alas! Qin Ying sighed and said: "She has lost her father since childhood, her mother has recently been in poor health…”

The small yard became silent, after a while, Qin Ying smiled: “Shuang’er I have said with Xiu lady, from tomorrow on with her to the mountains hunting and digging for herbs. When I’m not at home, you take care of yourself.”

Qin Shuang silent, said: "That … You don’t have time to practice!”

“Practice?” QinYing shook her head vigorously, so it was easy to say: “I don’t want to practice again, the qualification isn’t good, before it was purely a waste of time. Now I don’t want to practice for a day!”

In the dark, Qin Shuang can not see the current red eyes, was keen to hear a little trembling in her voice, the eyes of Qin Shuang are moist and her heart sore.

How could she not know the wet nurses obsession with practice? Now she has put down her practice, and its for hunting and digging herbs? Because there is no silver, and in order to feed her, this princess?

In the dark, QinYing hands unconsciously fiddling with the rabbit skin on the rope, Qin Shuang quietly looked at the wet nurse, the yard quiet down, only the kitchen out of the rabbit stew “gūdū” sound……..

Qinying finally put down the hands of fiddling with the rabbit skin, saw Qin Shuang eyes in the moonlight out of the crystal clear light, the heart smiled bitterly, knowing her mind could not be hidden from Qin Shuang, sniffed out from the kitchen floating out of the rabbit meat fragrance, strong smile said:

“Waiting for me to be familiar with hunting, we’ll have meat in our daily dishes!”
