Chapter 507 The cannon fodder cousin of the hero of the imperial examination novel (29)
He opened it and was looking at it when his wife came in.
Master, I heard that the Xu family sent someone to deliver Mid-Autumn gifts? But is it true? Arent they still in the filial piety period? They didnt move around last year, why did they come this year? Did you hear that our house..."
At this point, Mrs. Lin choked up in her throat.
Since the masters opponent threatened to invite the evil man to come to the Lin Mansion to do evil, the people who were usually on good terms with the Lin Mansion have been staying away from home in recent days. Not to mention sending gifts to your door, if you meet them on the road, you will act like you dont know them.
The world is really in a fickle state.
It seems like the Xu family is still upright! They obviously dont have to move around during the filial piety period, but they specially sent gifts. The other families...sigh..."
Mrs. Lin said and pressed her temples.
I haven't slept well for several nights and I have a terrible headache.
If this continues, the evildoers will not come to the door, but will torture themselves to death first.
Well, well.
Mr. Lin was concentrating on reading the letter and casually responded to his wife with a few words.
"Huh? What is this?" Mrs. Lin saw the gift box, "Is this...perfume?"
She whispered excitedly: "So much perfume? But it was sent by the Xu Mansion? Oh, sir, let me tell you, my daughter and I have not dared to sleep at night these days. We have terrible headaches during the day. We rely on Xu's spice shop to refresh us." I am holding on to the Xingnao essential oil and perfume, which are about to be used up. This gift from the Xu family has been sent to my heart... But I dont seem to have seen this package in Xus spice shop, but is it a new model? "
Speaking, he picked up one and was about to unscrew the bottle cap and take a sniff.
No, madam!
After reading the letter, Mr. Lin just raised his head and hurriedly stopped her.
No, no, no!
"What? I, Mrs. Lin, have no use for the things sent by the Xu Mansion?" Mrs. Lin said with a straight face, "Say! Are you going to give them to your warblers and swallows?"
"Where is it!" Mr. Lin couldn't help crying or laughing, and handed her the instructions for use written by Xu Yin, "Madam, you will understand after reading this letter."
Mrs. Lin took the letter dubiously. She first scanned the ten lines at a glance. After reading the back, her eyes gradually became more focused. She started from the beginning and read it again carefully. After reading it, she was so excited that she could not speak coherently:
"Really? Is this thing real? Can it really resist those evil people? Can it still catch them?"
Mr. Lin actually doesnt really believe it.
She knew the value of this thing. Even though it was a small bottle, people robbed it as soon as it was put on the counter at Xu's Spice Shop, so she didn't have to worry about selling it.
"Yin Yin, I don't know how happy you would be if your mother were here." Mrs. Lin held Xu Yin's hand and looked at her with a smile. The more she looked at her, the happier she felt for Xu Ningxiang, "By the way, there is one more thing I want to ask. you."
Mrs. Lin turned sideways, approached Xu Yin, and whispered: "Are you willing to sell the self-defense perfume you gave us yesterday? To be honest, the magistrate knew about the process of arresting the evil thief last night. Madam Magistrate's private She came up to me down there and asked me where I got the good stuff, and wanted me to distribute it evenly for her. But dont worry, I didnt reveal that it was from you. I thought you didnt sell it in the shop. I think there is a reason. But this self-defense perfume is really a good thing, and no female family member in any house would want to hold one in their hands. Lest one day my family almost encounters misfortune..."
Xu Yin sighed softly: "Aunt Lin, you have seen the effect of your stuff. If it falls into the hands of someone with evil intentions, it will undoubtedly be a double-edged sword."
Mrs. Lin understood: "That's why you didn't sell it in the shop? Good boy! It's hard for you to think about it so carefully."
Xu Yin thought for a while and said: "I know another way to deal with evil people, but there is no antidote and it will be quite painful if you accidentally hurt your own people. You have to be extra careful when using it."
What is it?
Xu Yin taught her how to make homemade chili pepper water.
When she returned home, Mrs. Lin was holding a bottle of chili water that she had just made at the Xu family with Xu Yinxian, and she was still a little dizzy.
The next day, the prefects wife came to visit again, and Mrs. Lin bravely told her how to make chili pepper water.
The benefactor said that it wasnt that she didnt want to sell it, but that the thing was a double-edged sword. Once it fell into the hands of evil people and was used to do evil, the consequences would be disastrous.
"I see..." The prefect's wife nodded in understanding and expressed curiosity about the pepper water. "What about this one? Aren't you afraid that it will fall into the hands of evil people?"
This is actually very easy to accidentally injure, so dont use it unless absolutely necessary.
The prefects wife went back with the chili pepper water and the method of making the chili pepper water.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy that night.
The flower-picking thieves are actually not one person, but two brothers.
Now that one was arrested, the other wanted to avenge his brother, so he sneaked into the prefect's backyard and wanted to kidnap the prefect's daughter to vent his anger, but he was sprayed with pepper spray in the face.
"Ah ah ah ah ah-"
The screams echoed through the sky.
A bird fell from the tree in surprise...
The next day, Mrs. Lin brought another carriage to the Xu Mansion to express her gratitude. She said that the wife of the prefect was thanking her, but she felt ashamed of receiving the thank you gift, so she brought them all to the Lin Mansion.
Xu Yin:
She doesnt seem to have used the [Prosperous Luck and Disaster Disaster] skill. Why is it such a coincidence every time?
