Chapter 158 - 158 Good Things



A 400 years old Chinese fleeceflower root should be considered as treasure. Her space would not reject it, right?

Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao followed whatever their sister-in-law said.

They were so lucky that they not only found Chinese fleeceflower roots they needed, but also another good thing called Chinese Mesona.

!!

Chinese Mesona belonged to the family of grass, but could grow very high, sometimes as tall as an adult.

The twigs were tender, and the leaves were oval-shaped, bigger than a thumb. The color was dark green, and fruits grew out of them, sweet and edible.

Ripe fruits would turn black, and they grew in a cluster of more than ten. Each of them was as small as the eyes of a carp.

The leaves as well as the ripe fruits would give off a fresh grassy smell when bitten in the mouth.

The leaves of Chinese Mesona were first mashed, then wrapped with cotton gauze, rubbed with water in a pot, and the juice obtained was filtered and left for a while. A natural pure green jelly could be made in this way.

When the jelly was served in the bowl, with some honey as well as mint water, it would become a really good snack for hot summer!

If they could find saltpeter and make ice out of it, then the snack would taste much better, by adding some chopped ice in the jelly. When she had enough people working for her, she would open a dessert store.

Qiao Xuan chopped a large bunch and decided to plant some Chinese Mesona in her flower field.

She could even make jelly as a snack whenever she had time.

She thought of another thing that could be used to make jelly, namely the creeping fig.

The creeping fig was a far better option to make jelly than Chinese Mesona. When ripe creeping figs were dried, the small seeds inside could be collected and grounded for making jelly. It was much easier to make and store that.

But the creeping figs would only ripen in August and September. At this time of the year, the creeping figs were just beginning to bloom.

The creeping figs were growing wildly and broadly, and could be found easily. She would focus on this business in a couple of days and bring them home too.

That was a plant that could survive easily, as long as their vines were well planted.

Satisfied, Qiao Xuan asked her siblings-in-law to get ready to go home.

Shao Xiaoqi and Shao Taotao were both very motivated, when they heard that the Chinese Mesona could be used to make something tasty. They put the cut branches on their backs directly.

Shao Yunduan could not help but admire his wife’s good luck. She had really found what they needed!

“Darling, we will deliver it to the town tomorrow, I believe that Young Master Xie wouldn’t have left yet. We can give it to him face to face!”

Shao Yunduan nodded with a smile. “Sure.”

He was going to keep her company on their trip to town, especially when she was meeting those two men.

Ms. Fang did not know the details, but seeing that they had found what they wanted, she was very happy for them.

Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan were unaware that the day they ran into Xie Jingrong and Yuezheng Xiao, they also ran into Strategist Lu who was working for County Magistrate Qiao.

Strategist Lu greeted the two of them politely and even mentioned that he was trying to help them to find Chinese fleeceflower root over 500 years.

Xie Jingrong had not wanted to bother County Magistrate Qiao, so he had never mentioned this to him, but County Magistrate Qiao got to know about it for some reason.
