Chapter 15 Congrats
On the second day, everyone in the Hou Mansion got a bowl of very novel and delicious watermelon smoothie.

And after hearing that this method was created by the eldest lady, everyone exaggerated that the eldest lady was smart and powerful.

Later, I heard that the way to eat smoothies spread to the market. The method of this smoothie is simple, and the ingredients needed are easy to get. Even ordinary people can buy a bowl of it.

Later, some smart merchants made improvements to the original watermelon smoothie. In addition to watermelon, there are peach, strawberry, mango and other flavors.When it came to rich and noble families, the chefs showed their talents and added many precious and rare things to the smoothie. The smoothie was both beautiful and delicious, attracting countless children from aristocratic families to try it.

And Ji Moyan, who heard about this, expressed his praise to Gu Man without hesitation, but Cheng Mo curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What kind of smoothie, something harmful to people, how many people eat it?" If you catch a cold, go outside and have a look, the medical hall is almost crowded with people!"

Ji Moyan thumped Cheng Mo lightly, and yelled for Gu Man, "It's those people who are greedy and eat too much, so the diarrhea continues. What does it have to do with my sister! Zimo, you are pure prejudice!"

Cheng Mo was noncommittal, and instead of arguing with her, he changed the subject, "Did she manage the Hou Mansion for you these few days?"

Ji Moyan nodded, and said with eyes full of admiration: "Thanks to my sister these days, I couldn't understand a lot of bookkeeping, but once my sister explained it, I understood everything! My sister is really amazing!"

Cheng Mo said disdainfully: "Whether it's her strength or my Yan'er's intelligence, you will understand in a simple way!"

Ji Moyan sighed helplessly, it seems that there is a long way to go to make Zimo have no prejudice against her sister!
……

Gu Man looked at the account book in front of her that recorded the expenses of the Hou Mansion, and explained to Ji Moyan which one must be spent, which one is dispensable, how much to buy, and how to use it?Ji Moyan nodded while recording.

Gu Man didn't know why she felt familiar as soon as she saw this account book, and she talked about it endlessly, obviously she was a person who couldn't save money.But the things about those ledgers flooded into my mind like a tide, like a person with amnesia who sees something familiar and immediately recalls the memory that has already been engraved in his mind.

Later, Gu Man thought: Maybe this is Gu Li's thoughts helping her!After all, I use her body.

Seeing these mountains of ledgers, Gu Li was able to sort them out without any mistakes, which is enough to show how serious and responsible Gu Li is.

After clearing the last account, Gu Man stretched her waist, rubbed her sore shoulders and waist, turned her head to look at Ji Moyan, who was still recording carefully, and said, "In half a month or so, it will be the empress's birthday." Now, have you prepared any birthday presents?"

Ji Moyan nodded shyly, "Master Hou said, he will prepare it for me!" Then, he said nervously: "This is the first time I see the Empress, will she not like it?" me?"

Gu Man thought: Of course I will!
Gu Man gave Ji Moyan a comforting smile, and said, "Don't worry, with me here, the empress will not make things difficult for you! But why don't you prepare a gift for the empress yourself?"

Ji Moyan frowned slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "The empress is a noble lady, I'm afraid she doesn't lack everything, I really don't know what to give. Lord Hou should know better than me what kind of gifts to give." Don't be rude!"

Gu Man shook her head, and wrote in the book: The gift Hou Ye prepared for Ji Moyan was a luminous pearl found in the South China Sea. It is very rare and precious, and there is only one in the world.It is not a loss of etiquette to give it to the queen. There is nothing wrong with it, but it is not special.This kind of thing is just looking rare, and you can't always carry it with you. After you collect it, you put it in the warehouse.If it was in an ordinary family, this gift would be considered the best, but what rare treasure has the empress not seen before?Therefore, this treasure of Master Hou is of no use at all!
Since it's useless, how can the empress remember Ji Moyan and like her?
Gu Man thought: If you want Ji Moyan to gain a foothold in the aristocratic family, you must first take down the highest-ranking empress. The empress has recognized Ji Moyan, so are you afraid that other people will have any opinions?Even if there is, it cannot be discussed on the table.

Looking at Gu Man's expression, Ji Moyan asked: "Does my sister have any ideas? By the way, the empress is your aunt, and my sister must be the person who knows the empress best! Please enlighten me!"

Gu Man smiled, since she took the initiative to mention this matter, she naturally thought of a countermeasure.

It is written in the book that after Gu Wan died, the enemy army suddenly attacked the border of the country.The emperor sent soldiers and horses to reinforce it, but the treasury was empty, the front line was tight, and there was no military support, so the emperor asked the whole country to donate money to support the soldiers on the border.

However, how can the poor have the money to donate?I couldn't eat enough to eat, and in the end I managed to scrape together tens of thousands of taels of silver, while those high-ranking officials in the capital were corrupt and corrupt on weekdays, and when they really needed them, they all cried poorly.

As the emperor's right-hand man, Cheng Mo worried about raising military pay every day, so our heroine thought, since those high-ranking officials and nobles are unwilling to donate freely, let them voluntarily pay for it.

So, Ji Moyan thought of a way to make money.

Ji Moyan is good at medical skills and is very talented. He soon researched something called "Ningxiang Pill", which can beautify the skin and is not easy to hurt the body.

After it was produced, it was given to the empress. After the empress used it, her skin was really shatterable, fine and smooth, and even the fine lines around the eyes were reduced a lot, making her more than five years younger.

Empress Empress and Ji Moyan colluded and invited all the female family members of prominent officials and dignitaries on the pretext of holding a banquet. When everyone saw the change of Empress Empress, they were all surprised and asked Empress Empress for a prescription.

Therefore, the Empress followed the method discussed with Ji Moyan before, and revealed to everyone the address to buy "Ningxiang Pills".

The shop selling "Ningxiang Pills" was controlled by Ji Moyan behind the scenes, and another trustworthy person was found to be the shopkeeper.After the female relatives of the high-ranking officials used it, they passed it on from ten to hundreds, and finally, they finally collected enough silver taels.

It was through this incident that Ji Moyan was admired by the nobles and became a heroine who saved the country among the common people!

Gu Man looked at Ji Moyan and said, "You have studied medicine with your father since you were young, but is there any prescription that can beautify the skin and make people look younger?"

Ji Moyan was stunned, then widened her eyes, and said in amazement: "I've been researching such a prescription recently, how did my sister know?"

Gu Man smiled, sure enough, Ji Moyan was already researching at this time.

Gu Man said: "I just thought that what women are most afraid of is aging. If there is a way to delay aging, that would be great! It seems that I went with you!"

Ji Moyan smiled and nodded, "Yes, no wonder I always feel closer and closer to my sister. It seems that there are so many similarities between me and my sister!"

Gu Man also responded with a smile, and then said: "If you really develop such a thing, then you can give this thing to the empress as a birthday present, and when the time comes, the empress will definitely like it! And tell the Empress that this gift is only for her!"

Ji Moyan looked at Gu Man, a little puzzled, and then suddenly figured it out.

Yes, who wouldn't want such a good thing?What's more, there are three thousand beauties in the harem. If everyone gets such a thing, wouldn't everyone be able to become young and beautiful? If everyone is like this, how can it highlight the uniqueness of the queen?
Gu Man nodded, and Ji Moyan was really smart, she could understand with just one point.

In fact, Gu Man has another thought, that is, this method itself has to deal with the crisis of foreign invasion in half a year. Now that Ji Moyan has made the Ningxiang Pill in advance, one is that the empress is not happy, and the other is It is a national regulation that officials are not allowed to do business without permission. Although there are many officials who do business secretly, after all, the name is not right and the words are not right.Besides, Cheng Mo would not do such a thing, why not wait half a year later, not only to get the support of the emperor and queen, but also to allow Ji Moyan to be recognized by the aristocratic family, killing two birds with one stone.
