The Prince's Humen's Wife

Chapter 71 The Wolf (3)
"Elder sister, I'm also trying to persuade the fourth girl to change her mind. If she wants to be admired by a wealthy family with her background and family affairs, she must know how to please a man. The so-called women are those who please themselves. Calligraphy, painting and embroidery, which ones are not made to please men. Don’t the noble ladies in the capital be reserved and noble? Why did they learn the craft of incense! It’s not just to make those men happy. Just now you also heard Oh, Mr. Tang said that the production of spices is appreciated even by the imperial concubines. Presumably those noble sons in the capital also use this item as a judgment on women. After marrying a daughter-in-law, they must brag with their friends in private. And I personally mixed some powder for him to show off!"

Lan Baonuo didn't show any shyness after saying these words, and looked at Li Manman in the face of everyone's eyes, "So I advise the fourth girl, if you want to marry Mr. Ruyi, you'd better let go of your reserve and learn This skill is always good for you."

After Li Chaochao heard her say such a long series of words, he lowered his head and smiled. When she was sister-in-law with Lan Baonuo, this girl thought very differently. She never thought that she would see a man's heart clearly at such a young age. So thorough.

She was really surprised by this, but what was even more surprising was that Director General Tang came to Jiangnan to find exclusive fragrance powder. Prince Jing wanted the noble concubine and the empresses in the palace to give him support, so he definitely wanted to please him. But don't think about watching women's bedside sex. Some people can charm the servant master and destroy a whole country.

She was thinking that in fact, she could use Prince Jing's line to open up the market in the capital, and the money would be pouring in, so what kind of man would she need at that time.

laugh!Men are all fucking clouds!No, not even floating clouds!

Li Chaochao was just thinking about it, when she heard her name faintly mentioned, Li Manman said over there: "So, the fifth girl in our family still has a foresight, she has already been one step ahead of us, and has learned a lot. The craft of mixing powder and making fragrance. Hehehe..."

Hehe, your sister, Li Chaochao looked at her calmly, isn't it funny?Will it be cold?
Sure enough, no one answered Li Manman's words, and even Lan Baonuo wanted to sarcastically, but was stopped by Lan Baoliu's eyes, "Say a few words, I don't feel ashamed."

The girls discussed in low voices. Mrs. Lan had already arranged the incense table. The incense burner, incense charcoal, ash pads, incense chopsticks, incense tweezers and incense plates were all available. The big maid handed over a porcelain incense box, She held it and brought it to Mr. Tang in person, "This is our Lan family's secret Yuhua incense recipe, please taste it."

Everyone clicked their tongues when they heard it. You must know that this Yuhua Xiangfang is the treasure of the Lan family's century-old brand. Not to mention Mrs. Lan's respectful attitude towards Mr. Tang, if it is revealed that the formula is spread, Or if Mr. Tang said something bad, it would be a sign of himself being smashed.

Li Chaochao thought it was funny to see the dumbfounded eyes beside her. She had already seen Madam Lan's intentions. If the name is removed, no one will ask her to taste it again. She will not damage her reputation. Second, even if the Yuhua fragrance is not good, Director Tang will take into account the face of the Tang family and will not say a bad word. A little praise, not to mention a sensation in the capital, will also become famous in the south of the Yangtze River.

It is precisely because there is no secret recipe that the business of the Li family's incense powder shop will collapse again and again. Li Chaochao remembers that the ancestor of the Lan family got this Yuhua fragrance prescription from an expert, and she knows its formula by heart. Madam Lan's self-confidence is justified, which is also the reason why Da Yuan is so after the incense maker.

Director Tang saluted with a smile, took the porcelain box in his hands, and then knelt down in front of the incense case without saying a word. The maid on the side held the prepared water in front of her and cleaned her hands silently. Watching her with bated breath.

The steps of tasting incense and incense are the same, but at the end there is an additional process of slowly observing the color, shape, and fragrance of the incense powder over time.

Although all the ladies present here also know a little about incense, they couldn't help being amazed when they saw Mr. Tang personally administering the Tao. After cleaning their hands, Mr. Tang put the incense burner prepared by Mrs. Lan into the incense burner that was [-]% full. Song, from the hollowed out cloud and mist incense burner in cloisonné enamel, it can be seen that Mrs. Lan attaches great importance to Director Tang. Even Li Chaochao lamented that it was a family heirloom of the Lan family, and Mrs. Lan really went all out.

It is not to say how valuable the Yunwu incense burner is, but for those who often practice the incense way, the incense ash will always stay in the incense burner, that is, the ashes are used to feed the incense burner. The longer the incense ash inside, the better the taste of the incense burner.

Tang Zongsi dug out the carbon hole with incense chopsticks in the incense burner, and then lit the incense carbon. Seeing that it turned red but did not become an open flame, he placed it in the carbon hole with incense chopsticks, and then took the incense stick to shake the surrounding charcoal. The incense ash is placed on it, and gently patted into a square altar.

The height of the incense path lies in the beauty and tranquility of its movements. When people and the fragrance environment become one, without interference from the outside world, even the people present are amazed by Mr. Tang's smooth, concise and dazzling movements.

After another incense plate was placed on the top of the square altar, Director Tang went to clean his hands again, opened the porcelain box that had not been opened at hand, took out the jade flower incense inside, cut a small slice, and placed it on the On the incense plate, after a short time, there is a fragrance overflowing, making people feel as if they are among thousands of flowers, the fragrance is refreshing and sleepy, and the charm is seductive.

However, this is not over yet, just as others are immersed in this moment, Li Chaochao is looking at Mr. Tang intently, with one hand gently supporting the flat belly of the incense burner from the bottom of the furnace, and the other hand arching it into a hollow hemisphere Gather aroma. , put it on the chest, inhale slowly and savor the fragrance.

This is the most critical step for a perfumer. The incense path has been completed before, and people can enjoy the richness of the spice while observing its beauty.

Director Tang frowned and lowered his eyes, and first observed the burning speed of Yuhuaxiang. The initial purchase seemed to slowly condense into a new smell that lingered in the banquet, intoxicating and natural.

I don't know who suddenly sighed, "It smells so good! It's so beautiful."

Everyone held their breath, and took a deep breath in the fragrance, which filled their hearts.

Director Tang smiled and said: "It's beautiful and not extravagant, it's completely natural, and the century-old fragrance really lives up to its reputation!"

"Haha... President Tang praised it absurdly. This incense is in the hands of President Tang so that it can exert its greatest effect."

Madam Lan was greatly encouraged by this compliment, she almost laughed out of her creases, as long as she worked harder, she might be able to get on the same line with Prince Jing's Mansion.

Seeing the two of them flattering each other, Li Chaochao tried his best to put on a smile. Yuhuaxiang is good, but compared to what Mr. Tang has seen before, it is definitely not the top holy product, and it may not be able to catch her eyes. The reason for saying this is, One is to give face to Mrs. Lan, and the other is that the Lan family's Yuhuaxiang has disappeared.
