The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 28
It looks hard work in the eyes of others, but there is also a secret that cannot be revealed to the outside world. Xiangchen thinks that the fifth girl has taken a fancy to her bad words.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Xiangchen knelt on the ground for a moment, smelling the fragrance in the air, he felt refreshed and refreshed, even the hot sun was not so hot.

"It's Xiangchen."

Li Chaochao seemed to wake up, narrowing his eyes lightly, full of luster, full of luster, and the light in his eyes took people's breath away.

Xiangchen used to be the maidservant of Dong's generation, after coming to Shuangzhu House, Li Chaochao changed her name, she was very happy.

"Fifth girl, Boss Su said that the spices are not enough, so he is willing to buy one for one hundred taels of silver."

Li Chaochao changed his posture and sat up, lifted the lid of the censer with his bare hands, and added another handful of spices, "Tell him, I don't need that little money."

Da Furen has never treated the concubine badly in terms of money, especially for the sake of saving face, she also gave her the most monthly money and tips.

"Yes." Xiangchen wrote it down, and said again: "Girl, the money from selling incense before has been saved, and Boss Su has also followed the girl's order to speed up the monopoly of the entire Zhenjiang incense shop."

"Okay, just give the bank note to Mother He. It's hard work, let's go down and have a rest first."

"Yes."

Xiangchen got up and saluted. What she usually does is to take out the spices prepared by Wu Girl for consignment. The incense shop opened by Boss Su is not famous, but since she got the spices of Wu Girl, the business has been very good, so She is the one who admires the master who doesn't show off the mountains and dews very much, and she is even more dedicated in doing things.

In the Shuangzhu Pavilion, Li Chaochao is not constrained by servants. She usually wears simple clothes and doesn't even bother to wear shoes and socks, so she is always nagged by Mama He.

After Xiangcao left, Mother He bent down to pick up her shoes, "From now on, the girl will still rest in the house, and even if she goes out, she should wear more clothes. It's the beginning of spring now, and she will get sick if she catches a cold."

"After all, there are no outsiders. Mom comes and sits." Li Chaochao patted the mat beside him, "I don't need to accompany my mother when I take a nap in the future, and don't worry about them disturbing me, or they will think I have a bad temper."

"The master is the master, so it's not good for them to overstep their identities." Mama He disagreed.

"Unmarried daughters are dependent on others." Li Chaochao smiled, "When we build our own house, it will be too late for mom to set the rules. I see these few are being taught very well by mom."

Mother He was flattered and coaxed by Li Chaochao, and she couldn't laugh or cry. After getting along these days, she found that the fifth girl was quite different from when she was a child. People have never been alienated from her, but they are in awe of her.

She looked at the incense burner on the old table, couldn't help thinking of the past, her nose sore, and she said in a low voice: "Young lady has received the true biography of Fifth Yiniang, if she is alive in heaven, she will definitely die in peace."

"It's not enough." Li Chaochao shook his head, "I remember when I was a child, I saw that my aunt never stained her hands when she made perfume, and her fingers were always white and clean. I am far behind in this alone, and many fragrance formulas have been lost. I will never be able to concoct it in my life, but it is a pity that I was too young at that time to learn from my aunt."

The method of concocting spices has been learned from her memory, and she is still a master of spices after practicing for a few years in her previous life. Part of the powder is based on other people's research, and the other is my own originality, but the fragrance made by my biological mother is unique in my memory.

After listening to Li Chaochao's words, Mother He seemed to think of something and suddenly became agitated, and she didn't care about explaining, she got up and ran into the house.

Li Chaochao smiled carelessly, she has always respected Mama He as an elder, no matter if she is by her side nagging or not abiding by the rules, she is always a caring person, which makes her feel more comfortable in this lonely world warmth.

The heart is too cold, too hard, too hard, even Li Chaochao can't feel the beating there. Whenever she lights incense on the mat and meditates, she feels that this is the life she wants to live in peace with the world. It reminds her of Su Shi's "He Lu Zhi" The last line of the poem in ": A stick of smoke disappears or becomes cold, half a lifetime of old age and idle mind.

But it was too depressing.

Before waiting for a while, Mother He ran out of the house again, holding a box in both hands and kneeling in front of Li Chaochao.

"what is this?"

Li Chaochao took the box and asked casually, then opened the lock, and the contents inside were clear at a glance: a book and some old jewelry.

When his eyes swept over the title of the book, Li Chaochao shook his hands excitedly, "Where did this "Xiang Jing" come from?"

At this time, Mama He was already in tears, kneeling on the ground and bowed deeply, "The old slave just heard the girl mention something, and then remembered that there is a book among Wu Yiniang's belongings. I don't know if it is what the girl wanted."

"How did I not know about this before?"

"The old slave is illiterate and doesn't know what this book is." Mother He recalled, "Perhaps the girl was young and didn't remember it at that time. My aunt has always regarded this book as a treasure. It was when she was murdered and died. At the time, I did not forget to entrust the book to me..."

"Wait!" Li Chaochao raised his eyebrows and asked in a low voice, "What did you say? Who killed my aunt!"

There are few rooms in the Shuangzhu Pavilion, but the area is not small, and because it is connected to the corner gate, there is a large open space where green bamboos are planted. In the south of the Yangtze River, it snows a few times in winter, but it can't hide its arrogance.

However, in spring, the sky was still clear, but there was an evil wind blowing out of nowhere, and the clouds were densely covered with light rain.

Li Chaochao stood in front of the window, silently looking at the thin rain curtain outside the window, his face was colder than the sky, remembering that it was the same weather in the last life when he first traveled through time, she was injured on the head, it was Fifth Aunt Bai Youfu who died He stayed by the bedside to take care of her day and night, without any help.

She was only three years old at that time, but she had the memory of an adult. She clearly remembered Fifth Yiniang's exquisite facial features, which were bright and refined, always spoke softly, treated people gently, and smiled with tenderness.

Even though Bai Youfu is her cheap biological mother, she treats her very well and always dresses her up beautifully, making the concubine sisters extremely jealous.

Xu thought of the sweet scene, the corners of Li Chaochao's mouth curled up slightly, and he stroked the "Incense Classic" with his fingertips. She had already read it. She had doubted that Bai Youfu would have such a unique skill before, so her background must be not simple.

Fifth Yiniang said that she was separated from her family when she was a child, and was sold by kidnappers to the mansion as a servant. Later, she was pulled into bed by Li Yongzhuo while drunk and took over the house. During the days of fighting, I also tried to find my biological parents, but there was no result.
