The air inside the house is still fresh and pleasant.

Aunt Zhao sniffed, but didn't smell anything, so she said, "It's probably because my nose is not working well, so I didn't smell the fragrance."

Shen Fengxu smiled and avoided talking, but added: "My mother seemed to have sent many things to my aunt before. I think the things my mother sent were very good, and Feng Xu also wanted to see them. "

Although it was a bit unreasonable, Aunt Zhao still turned around and ordered: "Go and get what Madam sent you."

The servant girl responded and did it.

In a short while, the maid took out some scattered things from Aunt Zhao's bedroom, whether they were hairpins, earrings, or purses and scented tassels. They were all dazzling.

Although Aunt Zhao doesn't like the eldest lady, she is just a concubine after all. Naturally, she must obey the eldest lady in everything. Even if she doesn't use these things, she must put them away properly.

What's more, if it's just ordinary common things, it's not like Aunt Zhao has never seen the world in Uncle Dongning's house for many years, but the things sent by the eldest lady are all excellent, so Aunt Zhao naturally accepts them one by one.

"Sure enough, they are all good things. It shows that mother really likes my aunt." Shen Fengxu blinked his eyes, picked up a piece of incense tassel at random, put it in his hand, played with it, and praised, "This fragrance The tassel seems to be cut from cloud brocade soft satin, and it feels silky and smooth, which is very rare."

"The things the eldest lady rewards are naturally good."

Chen Fengxu played with it for a moment, then took it in his hand and smelled it, and said thoughtfully: "This aroma should be what I smelled just now."

With that said, he handed the fragrant tassel to Aunt Zhao.

Aunt Zhao reached out and took it. She also felt that the smell on this incense tassel was very unique and not like ordinary things, but she didn't know what kind of spice it was.

"Does any of you know what kind of fragrance this is?" Aunt Zhao turned around and called all the maids in the room over. She smiled softly and said, "If you can identify it, you will naturally be rewarded."

So the maids came forward to identify it one after another, but it was probably because this fragrance was not common, and even the maids could not recognize it.

"This..." A famous maid suddenly showed a troubled look, "This maid seems to recognize..."

"If you recognize it, then tell me, what is this hesitation?" Seeing this, Aunt Zhao frowned in displeasure.

Chen Fengxu calmly put the things in his hands into his sleeves, his face still calm and composed, and said: "Just say what you have to say. Even if you admit that you are wrong, my aunt will not blame you."

The maid hesitated for a moment, then suddenly knelt down and said, "I'm not sure, but my cousin used to be in the spice business, and I only know a little bit about it. This fragrance... is probably musk." .”

As soon as she finished speaking, Aunt Zhao's face suddenly darkened and she threw the scented tassel in her hand on the table.

Chen Fengxu glanced at Aunt Zhao, still with a gentle smile on her face, and said: "Musk? I have also heard that musk is extremely precious, with a strange and unique aroma. It can be called the crown of all fragrances."

The maid also looked at Aunt Zhao's face and timidly added: "It's just...the maid heard that long-term use of musk damages a woman's skin and can lead to infertility. And if musk is used during pregnancy, it will be extremely harmful." Possible miscarriage."

Aunt Zhao's beautiful face was stained with a somewhat gloomy look, but she just pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Don't talk nonsense, you can go down first." Shen Fengxu shook his head gently, turned to look at Aunt Zhao, and said warmly, "Auntie, don't be angry, it's probably because the people under the eldest lady are ignorant. , to send this kind of thing."

A look of resentment appeared on Aunt Zhao's face: "The people under her are so ignorant. I think the eldest lady doesn't like me. If the sixth girl hadn't been here today, I might have been harmed without even realizing it."

The eldest lady really doesn't like Aunt Zhao.

Or it should be said that the eldest lady doesn't like other women around Shen Yanning, let alone allow them to be pregnant with children.

In fact, Shen Yanning was surrounded by more than just two aunts. There used to be five or six aunts in the house, but each of them died inexplicably in the end. Although it was an accident, it still made people suspicious.

"When I first entered the house, there was also Aunt Mo in the house. However, less than a year after I entered the house, Aunt Mo drowned and died, and so did Aunt Liu. She was pregnant for ten months and ended up with dystocia. If she dies, both mother and child will die." Aunt Zhao clenched her fingers slightly, feeling a chill down her spine for a moment, and her heart was filled with shock and anger. "Since she was straightened up, no aunt in the family has been pregnant anymore. Any aunt who is pregnant is already dead..."

Although the status of the children of a concubine was low, the eldest lady still could not tolerate other children of a concubine in the house.

Shen Fengxu responded: "Yes..."

Jiang Rou also died at the hands of the eldest lady. In order to show her gentleness and virtuousness, and to avoid making others suspicious, the eldest lady personally took care of her and Shen Baitang, showing the virtuous and virtuous nature of the mistress of a high family.

Over the years, the eldest lady has almost dominated the whole family in Dongning Bo's house. If it weren't for several events that happened in the past, which slightly shook the eldest lady's status, Shen Fengxu would still be unable to move even today.

But in the end it doesn't hurt.

She always has the support of Yi'an Bo Mansion. Due to Jiang Rou's death, Jiang Wan must maintain the relationship between the two families as the eldest lady in Dongning Bo Mansion, so no matter what, the eldest lady will always be the eldest lady.

"I will remember what happened today." Aunt Zhao bit her lip and her eyes fell on the gold, silver and jade sent by the eldest lady, "It's just that I know that the eldest lady intends to harm me, but there is nothing I can do. You can be careful and take precautions.”

She is just Shen Yanning's concubine, how can she be compared with the eldest lady?

Even if she puts these evidences in front of Shen Yanning, Shen Yanning will not deal with the eldest lady. At most, she will scold him, and the eldest lady will just blame the servants around her. Doing so will only Exposing herself to a very dangerous situation.

Chen Fengxu smiled slightly. Aunt Zhao was not too stupid. At least she knew that she would not change the matter and publicize it, so she reminded her in a low voice: "People don't want to hurt tigers, tigers are harmful to people's hearts. Although Aunt Zhao only wants to protect herself, can she?" When the time comes, it may not be able to be saved..."

"I don't understand."

Aunt Zhao has no one around her and no power. How should she contend with the eldest lady?

Chen Fengxu seemed to pick up the incense tassel on the table casually and said, "It's a pity that such a good incense tassel contains this kind of incense. I'm afraid it won't be usable."

Hearing this, Aunt Zhao's heart moved and she seemed to understand.

"I've been here for a long time today." Chen Fengxu raised her lips and stood up, "I won't bother my aunt anymore."
