215 Milk Tea
Old Wang glared at her and said unhappily, “Who knows what you’re going to do with it? Even if I throw away my cow’s milk, I won’t let you use it for no reason!”
Jian Qingqing did not know what Old Wang was thinking. He would think that she would not do a good job with it. She explained, “I won’t use it for no reason. I’m going to use it for food.”
This was the same excuse that the cook used. Old Wang did not believe her nonsense. He snorted coldly and chased them away with both hands. “I’m not selling it! I’m not selling it! Get lost!”
The cook quickly said, “Old Wang! It’s really not what you think! We’re really buying to drink it! We’re all neighbors. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? Why would I say such things?”
Jian Qingqing also said, “That’s right, Old Uncle Wang. I’m from the Jian Family Village. The Jian Family’s Food Shop in the county belongs to my family. If you don’t believe me, I’ll cook for you later.”
Old Wang stopped and looked at them suspiciously. He said, “Is what you said true? is that milk really edible?”
The cook repeatedly nodded. “Miss Jian is our county magistrate’s guest. You also know that I’m a cook in his residence. Even if you don’t believe me, I should believe the county magistrate, Ming Zhiyan.”
When he heard Ming Zhiyan’s name, Old Uncle Wang dispelled his doubts. He knew about the county magistrate. He was a very handsome young man who treated the people of Shifeng County very well. Once he came here, there were very few cases of people robbing and stealing things in Shifeng County.
Thus, he said, “Then you can take it. You don’t have to pay me. Just treat it as me giving it to you for free. Anyway, there’s no use for me to keep it.”
Jian Qingqing shook her head repeatedly and said, “No, Uncle Wang. In the future, I may have to use milk every day. How can I let you suffer a loss? I will pay you the money. You can buy some good grass for the cows to eat so that they can grow better.”
Uncle Wang thought about it and did not refuse again. He said, “Alright then. You can come here to take it from me in the future. This bucket today is my gift to you.”
Jian Qingqing smiled and thanked him. “Thank you, Uncle!”
After taking the milk back, she asked the cook to bring her some tea leaves. The cook did not know what she was going to do, so she went to the storeroom and brought over the best-packaged tea.
Ming Zhiyan did not bring a housekeeper when he came to Shifeng County, so all the things here were guarded by his guards. The guards did not know how to store these things, so many of them were just casually piled up.
Many of the gifts were sent over by the Emperor later on, and the guards also casually piled them up in the storeroom.
The cook had gone in to look for medicinal herbs, so she remembered the layout of the inside. She remembered that among the tea leaves, there was a box that was packed in a very expensive box. That should be good tea leaves, and Jian Qingqing was Sir’s guest, so she planned to give that box of the best tea leaves to her.
Jian Qingqing looked at the high-end tea leaves and was surprised for a moment. She sighed with emotion that Ming Zhiyan used really good things. She even wanted to take this tea box back and treasure it. It was really beautiful, it was also inlaid with beautiful gems. Perhaps she could tell Ming Zhiyan to give the tea box to her after he finished drinking the tea.
She heated the pot and then put sugar in it. After the sugar had completely melted, she took out a small handful of tea leaves and put it into the pot to stir-fry with the syrup.
The cook looked at her in surprise. This was the first time they had seen someone making tea like this. However, when they thought of how strange Miss Jian’s wonton was, but it was exceptionally delicious, they carefully observed her cooking. If it was delicious, they could go back and make it themselves.
