Marrying into a poor family

Qin Xiang didn't need to think too hard about Princess Yaoxiang's questions as she could answer almost all of them fluently.

However, Princess Yaoxiang's face showed no emotional change at all.

At this time, another maid came over with an incense burner and placed it on Qin Xiang's table.

There was a piece of incense cake in the censer, but it was not lit.

Qin Xiang knew, probably because he wanted to tell her what kind of fragrance it was?

However, these high-ranking nobles did not like to have their thoughts guessed, so Qin Xiang looked at Princess Yaoxiang appropriately with questioning eyes.

Princess Yaoxiang smiled and seemed to be somewhat satisfied with Qin Xiang's knowledge.

She raised her pointed chin, signaling Qin Xiang to look at the incense burner in front of her, and asked: "Then do you know what kind of incense this is?"

Qin Xiang was a little unsure this time. She picked up the fragrant cake with incense chopsticks and placed it on the empty porcelain plate next to it. She picked it up at the tip of her nose and smelled it.

Then he closed his eyes and carefully felt the aroma inside.

Lu Jiu was a little nervous, and his eyes looked over with worry.

Xiao Chenyu was also worried, but after all, he knew Qin Xiang better than Lu Jiu, so he gently closed his eyes to Lu Jiu opposite him, which meant that Lu Jiu could rest assured and trust Qin Xiang's ability to identify fragrance.

After a while, Qin Xiang had a relaxed smile on her face. Before she opened her eyes, she suddenly smelled a pungent fragrance. Qin Xiang could not help but frown slightly. When she opened her eyes, she saw the beautiful maid Tingting curling up. Come closer.

The fragrant maid walked to Qin Xiang's side, curtsied and then placed the carved red lacquer tray she was holding on the table.

When the maid bent down, the sachet she was wearing swayed, and the fragrant aroma became even stronger.

Qin Xiang glanced at the maid's sachet and then turned his attention to the tray.

Inside was a pen, ground ink, a few plum blossom picks, and a faint scent of plum blossoms.

In addition to the incense burning incense burner placed earlier on the low table, there are also fragrant tea, flower-scented pastries, wine made with spices, sachets on the maid's body, etc., all of which can mask the smell of the fragrant cakes in Qin Xiang's hands. thing.

It was obvious that Princess Yaoxiang made it more difficult after seeing Qin Xiang's power.

Qin Xiang didn't know what Princess Yaoxiang wanted?

Is it just a test, or does Princess Yaoxiang want to use this to cause trouble?

Xiao Chenyu looked at Qin Xiang, with questioning and unconcealable worry in his eyes.

Qin Xiang turned her head, smiled comfortingly at him, and shook her head gently.

"Don't worry, just relax. I believe you. Even if you can't guess it, it doesn't matter!"

"Well!" Qin Xiang shook Xiao Chenyu's hand a few times and said relaxedly: "Don't worry, I've already made a good guess, but I can't make a final decision yet."

Qin Xiang's voice was very low, and only the two of them could hear it. Lu Jiu, who was opposite him, was worried, but he could only see the two of them lowering their heads slightly and whispering. He really wanted to run over and hear what they said.

Lu Jiu was a little dissatisfied with this inexplicable Princess Yaoxiang. Although he did not show it, his slightly dissatisfied eyes could not help but look at Princess Yaoxiang.

But he never expected that Princess Yaoxiang was staring at him intently.

Lu Jiu was a little stunned. Why was he looking at him like this?

If the woman next to him looked at him so directly, Lu Jiu would definitely feel that the other woman was plotting against him, but the woman in front of him was Princess Yaoxiang, and Lu Jiu would not be so narcissistic. What's more, Princess Yaoxiang's view was too straightforward. She only had pure appreciation and was not mixed with those reverie emotions.

how to say? It was as if she was simply admiring Lu Jiu's handsome appearance, as if a flower lover saw rare flowers, a painting lover saw famous paintings, and a tea lover saw fragrant tea.

Although Lu Jiu was embarrassed, he still smiled at Princess Yaoxiang, then lowered his head to pick up the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.

But he never thought that because he was avoiding the sight of Princess Yaoxiang, he drank a little too fast, and some of it choked his trachea. Lu Jiudang even covered his mouth and coughed twice.

The burning gaze was still on him, and Lu Jiusheng suppressed the rest of his cough, so that his cheeks, neck, and ears were all red, like peaches invited to be picked.

Princess Yaoxiang propped her hands on the low table and leaned her body, so she could continue to look at Lu Jiu's embarrassment or beauty?

The two of them were engaged in a lawsuit, but Qin Xiang had already closed her eyes to adjust herself, and closed her eyes again to distinguish the spices in the cake.

Xiao Chenyu stared at his wife's face without daring to move. He even breathed softer for fear of disturbing Qin Xiang.

Qin Xiang's profile is very beautiful, with a smooth forehead, slender eyebrows, long eyelashes that tremble slightly when she closes her eyes, a straight nose, and slightly upturned lips.

Xiao Chenyu has seen this face countless times, and kissed these red lips countless times, but looking at it now, he still felt a different kind of heartbeat.

Suddenly, Xiao Chenyu felt lucky. If Xuan Miaoguan hadn't been kind-hearted at the time, how could he have embraced the beauty?

Then I thought, if I had hesitated for a moment that day and someone else had taken the lead, then the person sitting next to Qin Xiang today would have been another man.

The thought that the person who held her in his arms every night might be someone else ran through Xiao Chenyu's mind, and he was immediately frightened.

This is absolutely impossible.

Maybe he was too bored, Xiao Chenyu kept thinking over and over in his mind, if Qin Xiang hadn't married him, who would she have married?

Will that person cherish her?

This is not necessarily true. Qin Xiang is beautiful and very capable, but her personality is not gentle. Most men may not be able to stand it, let alone see her heart and tolerate her.

If she meets a man who won't tolerate her and truly loves her, with Qin Xi's character, she will never open her heart to accept that man.

She would close herself off and wrap herself up tightly, like a hedgehog covered in thorns. When she pricks others, she is also covered in scars.

The wild thinking made Xiao Chenyu feel distressed.

What he didn't know was that Qin Xiang had experienced a more painful past, so he developed a sharp and cold character.

In fact, the former Qin Xiang was just a simple little girl who would be happy for a strange candy from Xiao Hanyang.

I don't know how long it took, but Qin Xiang finally opened her eyes, then picked up the pen, wrote a few words, and then picked up the fragrant cake and smelled it again.

After repeating this process, he finally put down the pen and put the plum blossom sign filled with words into the tray.

The maid beside her picked up the tray and brought it to Princess Yaoxiang.

Princess Yaoxiang picked up the plum blossom lottery and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then whispered out: "Yaxiang, Lord Meng of Houshu!"

Then, he looked at Qin Xi without emotion: "Can Mrs. Xiao Er please tell me how to do this?"

Although the prescription is a secret method and is basically not spread among the public, it would be rude for Princess Yaoxiang to ask such a question. However, Princess Yaoxiang obviously does not consider this, and Qin Xiang does not care either. After all, it is not her own original recipe, let alone the Qin family's. Fangzi.
