PNB Chapter 284 Sisters Talk
Chapter 284 Sisters Talk
Su Wanwan already knew that there were jasmine flowers in this era, but they were flowers enjoyed by the nobles and not planted in the homes of ordinary people.
"This tea is called Jasmine Snow. I came up with it for fun. I hope you like it."
Su Wanwan also took a sip. The floral scent of jasmine and the crispness of green tea were a unique combination.
She doesn't like drinking tea, but remembers that her grandfather liked it.
My grandfather’s favorite tea is jasmine tea. When I was a child, I remember that the kind he often drank was in a yellow packaging bag that cost a few dollars. It was very cheap, but tasted good.
The things in the space were bought at the supermarket when she was stocking up. They were much more expensive than the ones her grandfather drank, but they also had a strong floral scent.
"It's jasmine. I was wondering if the scent of this flower was familiar to me."
Ye Jingxue understood.
She didn't have any jasmine at home, but there were a few pots of it in the palace, and she had smelled the scent.
"Can jasmine flowers be used to make tea? I have jasmine flowers at home, but why have I never thought of using them to make tea? No wonder my sister-in-law can make so many strange farm tools, she really has a good brain."
Lin Wenyue took another big sip. The more she drank, the more she felt that this tea with a floral scent tasted better.
She doesn't like drinking tea, as she thinks it is bitter and astringent, but this Jasmine Snow Tea actually tastes quite good.
Among the three, Lin Wenyue is the youngest and visibly the most lively one. Su Wanwan and Ye Jingxue couldn't help laughing.
I've never seen anyone drink tea like this.
That's her.
"I've also seen jasmine flowers in the mountains. They smelled good, so I thought of drying them and adding them to tea. I didn't expect them to taste good. If you like them, you can try them later."
Su Wanwan explained that after all, the jasmine flower was not something that a country girl like her could grow, so it would still belong to the mountains.
Lin Wenyue nodded:
"Then I have to go back and try it. Next time the jasmine flowers bloom, I will keep them and let my dad try them too."
Ye Jingxue also became interested:
"Alas, what a pity! There are no jasmine flowers on my farm."
She looked regretful, but her eyes were fixed on Lin Wenyue.
"Sister Ye, if you want jasmine flowers, just tell me. I'll ask my cousin to send you a few pots later. He has plenty."
As good sisters for many years, Lin Wenyue naturally knew what Ye Jingxue meant.
When Su Wanwan heard this, her eyes immediately lit up.
Jasmine flowers, when in bloom, fill the house with fragrance, she likes it too.
"Sister-in-law, I'll bring a few pots over later."
Neither of them was polite and nodded directly.
After all, Shen Zhao was old, so he just came over to say hello and went into the house to read. Since there were only female relatives around, it was not appropriate for him to show up.
Su Wanwan asked Yun Yi to take Xiao Yue'er to the vegetable garden to pick cucumbers and tomatoes.
After picking a few and washing them, two little guys came running over, one holding a tomato and the other holding a cucumber.
"Mother, aunts, the washing is done."
The two men placed the basket on the stone table.
Ye Jingxue looked at Xiao Yue'er and then at Xiao Yunyi. The two children were so good-looking, like a perfect match.
The children of the wealthy families in the capital may not be so pleasing to the eye.
Especially little Yue'er, her face is so chubby, I really want to pinch it.
In fact, she did.
"Xiao Yue'er, come here, let auntie hug you."
Those red fruits are not as attractive as children.
Xiao Yue'er ran to her obediently.
Lin Wenyue couldn't resist the temptation of the fruit and started eating the tomatoes.
This was not her first time eating it. Her sister-in-law had given it to her when she came here before, and she missed the taste so much.
"Sister-in-law, your tomatoes are so delicious. You must plant more seedlings next year."
Don't forget to remind me while eating.
Here, Ye Jingxue hugged Xiao Yue'er as she wished, and even reached out her hand to pinch Xiao Yue'er's little face.
"Yue'er is so cute, how old is she?"
Xiao Yue'er just felt that this aunt smelled nice and fragrant. She also brought them a lot of cakes and candies. She liked this aunt.
"Five years old."
Little Yue'er giggled when being pinched, but still answered obediently.
Ye Jingxue was stunned. Five years old?
After a long time, she came back to her senses and touched her head.
"You're five years old now. You're really sensible."
"Auntie, eat this. It's really delicious."
Xiao Yue'er personally took a tomato and gave it to Ye Jingxue. Ye Jingxue put her down and took it.
The red fruits look very tempting.
Take a bite and the sweet and sour juice will fill your mouth with fragrance.
At this time, Lin Wenyue had already gone to eat the cucumber again.
It feels like after eating these two things, she doesn’t need to eat lunch.
Su Wanwan did not take them to the fields immediately. After all, they arrived quite late today, so they simply had lunch at home before going.
The sisters had small appetites, and after eating tomatoes and cucumbers, they couldn't eat much, so she simply kept it simple. She made fried sauce with minced meat, rolled noodles, and gave each of them a bowl of fried noodles with sauce.
Adding some cucumber shreds to the noodles with soybean paste can neutralize the greasy taste of the meat sauce, making it a perfect match.
I thought they couldn't eat much, but they still ate a big bowl each. If she really couldn't eat any more, Lin Wenyue would have wanted to eat two more bowls.
When Shen Yuan heard that Miss Ye and Lin Wenyue came to his house today, and also heard Yun Yi say that Lin Wenyue was actually a woman, he felt embarrassed to go back.
Su Wanwan asked Xiao Yunyi to bring food to the workshop, told Shen Zhao to clean up the kitchen, and took her sisters to see the rapeseed flowers.
Sure enough, women have no resistance to the sea of flowers.
Even though Ye Jingxue was a rather reserved lady from a wealthy family, she couldn't help but wander in the sea of flowers and laugh happily with Lin Wenyue.
"Sister Ye, it's a good thing you came here after your divorce, otherwise it would be hard to see such a sea of flowers."
Lin Wenyue said this without restraint.
Su Wanwan was originally joining them in having fun, picking a few bunches of flowers and pinning them in their hair, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but pause.
Lin Wenyue suddenly felt that she had said something wrong, so she immediately covered her mouth and looked at Ye Jingxue embarrassedly.
Su Wanwan pretended not to hear.
There are some questions that you shouldn't ask.
Unexpectedly, Ye Jingxue didn't seem to care at all and chuckled:
"What my sister said is true. Fortunately, I got divorced, otherwise I would have ended up in a terrible situation."
When he said this, there seemed to be hatred in his eyes.
Su Wanwan arranged the flowers. Ye Jingxue looked at her and knew that she must be curious, so she kindly added:
"You scared me, didn't you? It's okay. There's nothing wrong with telling me about this. My sister and I get along well and we really want to be sisters. I won't hide it from her."
Ye Jingxue didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter.
Few people knew that she came to Beichang Prefecture. She bought Wanggang Village and Daliushu Village and became neighbors, but many people did not know her identity and just thought she was a rich lady.
But if anyone asks around, they'll know who she is.
Rapeseed is a four-season plant. It usually blooms in spring and is harvested in summer, but it is also possible to plant in summer and harvest in autumn. The heroine planted it for one more season for breeding.
