Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 52 Xiangfei Soap Recipe
After Li Siniang went out, Qin Xiang asked Huzi about his previous errand.

Huzi took the money and went to the county town that day and found a troupe from other places.

This kind of troupe travels all over the country and does not stay in one place. They stay for a while when they encounter a good place. If they encounter a bully or something, they leave immediately.

In short, it is very difficult to survive.

There is a boy in this troupe who is handsome, but there are two powerful people in front of him blocking his way, so it is difficult for him to get ahead. Even food and clothing are a problem.

When Huzi found him, he moved him with only two taels of silver and a few days of good food and drink. He got a set of acting scholar props, asked for leave from the class leader, and followed Huzi away.

Then came the play at the Archway. For an actor, pretentiousness was the norm, and seducing Yanzi was easy.

After he performed a decent performance, the Xiao family's second uncle's family trusted him very much, and Yanzi's heart was fascinated by the actor's caring eyes.

That's why Liu Xi came to propose marriage but was rejected, and even compensated Liu Xi with ten taels of silver, just to prevent him from continuing to make trouble.

"I could have left two days earlier, but that person couldn't bear to part with the delicious food and drink from the Qin family, so he refused to leave. I urged him several times before he left yesterday with an excuse."

Qin Yu said: "You did a good job this time. I will give you ten taels of silver as a reward in a while. You can give it to your mother to keep."

Huzi quickly thanked Qin Xiang in surprise. He was a very smart child. If his family had not been poor and could not study, he would not be a talent in the future.

Later, Qin Xiang told Hu Zi: "By the way, it may be a bit dangerous to go on business this time. I will ask Qiao San to follow you secretly. If there is an accident, he will take you away first."

Huzi was stunned and asked: "What about her?"

Qin Xiang knew that he was asking Li Siniang, so she smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about this. Just come back in one piece. She, of course, has other plans."

Huzi breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement. In his heart, Qin Xiang was a smart, capable and kind-hearted person. She said there were arrangements, of course there were arrangements.

Qin Xiang was pressed for time, so she asked Huzi to invite Qiao San.

Qiao San's mission is very simple, follow and protect him secretly, and only Huzi even knows about his existence.To put it bluntly, Qin Xiang was still a little wary of Li Siniang.

Qiao Sanyi looked a little uncomfortable when he heard that he was going to Fucheng, but he still took the job.

After the matter was settled, Qiao San didn't stay much. He came through the back door and left quietly through the back door. Li Siniang in the front yard didn't know.

Qin Xiang sat a little lonely in the empty incense room. This was the place where she spent the most time. Now that there was no incense, her heart was mostly empty.

I don’t know how your husband is doing now?Are you still alive?There are many unsatisfactory things in this world, but ants are still greedy for life, and people are always unwilling to die.

Qin Xian didn't want to live when she was first reborn, but now that she has someone she can't let go of, she doesn't want to die anymore: "In that case, I will live well, and those bad people will make way for me."

As for the person she couldn't let go of, besides her mother, there was now another person - Xiao Chenyu.

She wants to live well, wants to protect her mother, and wants to decide her own life, so she can only prepare for a rainy day and make arrangements in advance.The most important thing is that she can't stay in this small town for a while, she has to go out and build her own connections and strength.

The next day, the sky turned pale, and Li Siniang and Hu Zi were about to set off.

Qin Xiang didn't know if their trip went smoothly, but she still told them that it didn't matter if they couldn't complete it, the most important thing was to come back safely.Huzi drove, Li Siniang lowered the curtain, and the carriage gradually moved away, leaving Fushui Town and its sleeping family members.

When Baoer woke up, he found that he didn't see his mother, so he cried and clamored for her. The tears and runny nose were running down his face, and he looked so pitiful.

Qin Xiang had a headache due to the noise, so she went to Xuanmiao Temple to get some spices, and left the child to Zhou to coax her. Lanhua, who only liked the smiling Bao'er, also hid in the kitchen to get what she wanted to eat.

Lian'er followed Qin Xiang. After the two came back, they hid in the backyard and began to learn how to make a "Xiangfei Soap Recipe".

"Half and a half each of spikenard, Ligusticum, Asarum, Mao Xiang, Agastache leaves, Cyperus rotundus, Panerai, Linglingxiang, Sichuan Qiong, gelatine, Angelica dahurica, one or two Ligusticum phlox seeds, and three qian of borneol powder separately. , one tael each of white coriander, white clove, and bletilla striata, and a pound of mung beans soaked in wine and turned into powder, combined with glutinous rice."

Although Qin Xiang is not a pleasant person, she does not hide her secrets when teaching a perfume. She talks and practices at the same time, and makes Lian'er see clearly. If Lian'er doesn't understand, she will explain it again.

So far, Lian'er has learned how to handle some spices and how to make a bath bean. The bath bean she made independently can barely pass the test.

"This facial cleanser can treat acne spots and pimples. Commonly used, it can make the skin smooth, smooth and white."

Lian'er is illiterate, but has a very good memory. She can keep Master's words in mind and then think about them again and again to understand them.

At this moment, Lan Hua ran in, and the way her tall and strong body jumped up and down was really unbearable to watch.

"Madam, Liu Xi's mother is here. Mother Lian'er asked you to come." Lanhua tilted her head and looked at the piles of various powders on the table, blinked and asked, "Are these for making pastries?"

Qin Xiang stood up and told Lian'er: "Do what I tell you seriously. I'll come as soon as I go. If you're not sure what to do, don't try it rashly. You need to ask me before talking."

She discovered today that some spices were no longer in stock, so she couldn't waste any of them.

Lan Hua was still thinking about eating, so she was pulled out of the backyard incense room by Qin Xiang.

"Madam, do you want to make food and eat it secretly?" Lanhua pouted to express her dissatisfaction.

Qin Xiang explained helplessly: "Those are for cleansing, not for eating."

Lan Hua laughed when she heard this: "I knew my wife would not deny me delicious food. Hehe, my wife is the best person."

Qin Xiang paused slightly, feeling that Lanhua's words were a bit harsh. She was not a good person, at least, not a good person in the true sense.

Liu Xi's mother was chatting with Mrs. Zhou in the main room. When she saw Qin Xiang coming in, she stood up hurriedly and cautiously and said, "Oh, Xiao Er's family, your family is really impressive. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really good. Even the servants are here." If you use it, you will still enjoy happiness."

Qin Xiang sat down and motioned for Aunt Six to sit down: "Why did Aunt Six come to town today?"

Aunt Six also sat down, and Mrs. Zhou hurriedly took Bao'er, who relied on her, out.

"It's not a big deal. The Yanzi family came to talk about the marriage between Yanzi and Liu Xi this morning. I thought this was a good thing. Liu Xi's father also urged me to come back to Liu Xi. It doesn't matter to me. Hurry up or you’re still late, you should all have lunch, right?”

"Didn't Liu Xi and Yanzi's marriage get blown up? Why did you mention it again?" Qin Xiang ignored Aunt Six's eager eyes for food, but for Liu Xi's sake, she still called Mrs. Zhou to bring tea and snacks. Place it in front of Aunt Six.
