After the meal, the two of them were still very busy.

Du Damei didn't want to serve her either. She left the food for Cao Laoda and ate it herself before leaving with the child.

Cao Laoda was quite filial, but he was used to being suppressed by his mother since he was a child. He was resentful and didn't have much patience when doing things.

Seeing that Cao was complaining non-stop, after finishing her lunch, she threw some leftovers to Cao and left the house.

Cao was lying on the bed, looking at the cold food beside her. She felt resentful and hateful in her heart, and kept scolding Du Damei, saying that she had no conscience.

While scolding, she peed on the bed.

She was so frightened that she shouted outside, but her daughter-in-law and son were out, and no one cared about her.

She had to soak in the stinking urine and scold them until her voice became hoarse.

After Du Wanchun and Aunt Zhou arrived home, Zhou Ruiyuan prepared the meal in advance.

After Du Wanchun hurried to finish lunch, she followed Aunt Zhou to pack the mint perfume and prepare to send it to the shop tomorrow.

Zhou's incense shop doesn't sell much incense now, but it is very popular with the second lady of the Zheng family.

The second lady bought perfume and sandalwood tower incense and gave them to her brother Zheng Zhifu.

Zheng Zhifu kept some and asked someone to give it to the third prince in the capital.

The third prince is the half-brother of the current emperor. He is an idle and idle prince who likes incense very much.

After receiving the incense from Zheng Zhifu, the third prince did not take it very seriously.

Today, the maid in the mansion accidentally took the wrong incense and lit the incense sent by Zheng Zhifu.

The third prince had just returned from the palace and was startled when he smelled the incense in the house.

He hurriedly called to the maid behind him: "What incense did you burn today?"

The little maid was startled, lowered her head, thought for a while and replied: "To answer your question, you, I burned the wrong incense. I mistook the sandalwood tower incense sent by Zheng Zhifu for the one sent by the palace."

After she finished speaking, she quickly stood up and prepared to put out the incense.

The third prince came back to his senses from his surprise and quickly reached out to stop her, "No need to put it out."

The little maid immediately retreated when she heard it, "Yes, your majesty."

The third prince walked to the incense burner, smelled it carefully, and then sat down with a decadent look on his face, his eyes full of sadness.

The maid looked at him and asked cautiously, "Prince, what's wrong with you?"

The third prince looked ahead, as if thinking of an old friend, and said slowly, "This fragrance, for a moment, is a bit like the fragrance that the queen gave me before, but unfortunately, after smelling it carefully, it doesn't look like it..."

The queen's affairs are taboos in the capital, and only the third prince dares to mention her so openly.

The little maid comforted, "Prince, the dead cannot be resurrected, so don't be sad anymore."

The third prince closed his eyes and sniffed the slowly burning sandalwood crazily, as if intoxicated, and said in a floating tone, "The dead cannot be resurrected... If I had known this, I would not have let her enter the palace..."

The little maid lowered her head and dared not speak.

The Third Prince closed his eyes slightly and said, "You said that this incense was sent by Prefect Zheng?"

The maid nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The Third Prince opened his eyes, looked at the incense and said, "Do you know where it came from?"

The maid thought for a moment and replied, "I heard that it was bought from the incense shop in Fang's Cheng'an County."

The Third Prince stood up with his hands behind his back and said, "Well, you can send a letter to Prefect Zheng for me and ask him to buy me some more incense."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The maid replied softly.

The Third Prince looked in the direction of the palace and ordered, "Remember, I want 20 kilograms."

The maid was startled and did not dare to ask any more questions. She continued to reply, "Yes, Your Majesty."
