While they were talking, someone came down below to report that the maid beside the old lady had arrived in spring.
Mrs. Yao did not dare to delay and quickly invited people in.
The eldest maid Chun Chun came in carrying a tray: "Greetings to the eldest madam."
Mrs. Yao raised her hand and asked her to get up: "Why are you here at this time? Does the old lady have any orders?"
In fact, I wanted to inquire about Yao Anxin.
The eldest maid Chun Chun smiled softly, moved the tray in her hand forward, and said: "Today, the young lady took a bath at the old lady's place and got a scent. She thought it was very useful, so she specially asked the old lady for it. I thought
I want to bring it to honor the eldest lady. Originally, this thing should be delivered by the young lady in person. It’s not because the old lady likes the young lady and keeps her. So the old lady beats the little slave to deliver the thing as soon as possible.
It fulfills the filial piety of the young lady towards the eldest lady."
With that said, he opened the tray and closed the lid, revealing the contents.
The eldest maid Chun Chun introduced them one by one: "This is Poutu incense, which is what young ladies are using. These are fragrant pills, which can be used to diffuse clothes; these are essential oils, which can be applied to the body during massage and have miraculous effects.
;This is perfume, lightly dip your fingers on the mouth of the bottle, and apply it behind your ears, wrists, etc..."
"In addition to what the young lady likes, the old lady also picked out a pair of 'two-color fragrance'. Madam can try it and see if she likes it."
…
During the introduction, the maid Spring would also lift the lid and let Mrs. Yao take a whiff.
Mrs. Yao was a little confused: Didn’t the old lady not like me? Why would she give me incense?
Wait, this fragrance... seems to smell very good.
Why didn't she know that the old lady could make incense and that she could make it so well?!
Regardless of whether it is Putu incense or two-color incense, Mrs. Yao can guarantee that after using incense for so many years, she has never used such a good-smelling incense. She feels that all the incense she used before was in vain.
It's no wonder that as soon as Yao Anxin smelled such a delicious fragrance, she couldn't help but beg for it from the old lady and wanted to give her a copy.
Wait a minute, when did Sister Xin become so bold and dare to ask the old lady for something?!
Mrs. Yao's pupils widened instantly, and she couldn't believe it.
She was still in a daze and murmured to herself: "Why do I feel like I'm dreaming? Isn't this dream too real..."
"Madam, you are not dreaming, this is real!" The eldest maid Xia Tao couldn't help being excited. She tightly grabbed Madam Yao's arm.
Because just now, she thought she was dreaming and pinched her thigh hard, which instantly woke her up from the pain - this was real, this was not a dream.
"It's really not a dream?"
"No, slave, it still hurts." The eldest maid Xia Tao pointed to her thigh in embarrassment.
Mrs. Yao finally came to her senses and wanted to inquire about Yao Anxin with her maid Chun Chun, but as soon as she turned around she was gone.
"Madam, Sister Chunchun just delivered the things and left. She will go to the Second Madam later..." The eldest maid Xia Tao felt guilty because she seemed to have forgotten to send Chunchun out just now.
That was the maid next to the old lady. She was negligent for a moment, so she shouldn't have offended her, right?
"Tell me, why did the old lady suddenly give me something?" Mrs. Yao asked.
The eldest maid Xia Tao said: "No matter why, since the old lady sent it, it means that our young ladies are at least safe for now, otherwise the old lady would not let the eldest maid beside him make such a trip."
That is a maid. If she is not decent enough, she can just send a little maid away. How can a personal maid show up in person?
Even Xia Tao herself would not run out often unless it was something important.
Mrs. Yao nodded, her heart suddenly relaxed. She thought, since the old lady sent someone to send incense, it would be safe for Sister Xin to come, right?
She just hoped that Uncle Yao would come back soon, otherwise she was really afraid that something might happen to Sister Xin, and she wouldn't be able to handle it alone.
On the other side, Uncle Yao is already on his way back.
The carriage stopped at the door of an inn. Uncle Yao lifted the curtain and jumped out.
Although there were twists and turns this time, things generally went smoothly. For the first time, Uncle Yao felt that dealing with this kind of thing was actually quite interesting. It was not as "inappropriate" as he thought, and it was not as shameful to touch.
Whether it is business or not, whether it is a manor or not, in fact, no matter what it is, there is a "knowledge" in it.
Along the way, Uncle Yao was also very happy to chat with Shopkeeper Qiao, listening to his stories about business, as well as the people and things that Shopkeeper Qiao had experienced outside over the years.
Those are scenery that Uncle Yao has never experienced and never noticed.
It was like a new door had opened, allowing him to see another world.
Uncle Yao once again thanked Wen Haoze in his heart. He felt that when he returned to Yunyang City, he must thank him properly. If he hadn't lent him a "capable person" specially selected, he might not have been so good this time.
It's easy and you won't learn so much.

After the eldest maid came out of Mrs. Yao's courtyard in spring, she went straight to Mrs. Yao's courtyard.
When she saw her, Mrs. Yao Er was still a little unhappy, because she had just received the news that Yao Anhong and Yao Anling had been "detained", which almost made her angry to death.
She knew that that old woman was not a good person at all!
Helping and "teaching" is nothing but blackmail.
Mrs. Yao Er was so angry that she gritted her teeth and called her maid Qiu He several times, ordering her to arrange for a few more people and to call her back Master Yao no matter what.
If they can't find Mr. Yao, tell them not to come back.
The eldest maid entered the hospital in spring and met a wave of servants leaving anxiously: "..."
Did she come at the wrong time?
However, regardless of whether it was true or not, the maid Qiu He had already seen her and stepped forward to say hello to her.
When the eldest maid was brought into the house in spring, she clearly felt that something was wrong with the way Mrs. Yao looked at her. If she hadn't been the old lady's wife, wouldn't Mrs. Yao want to "take care of" her?
While thinking about it, the eldest maid Chun Qian bowed and saluted: "I have met the Second Madam. Good day, Second Madam."
"Ha! I can't be at ease." Mrs. Yao Er said with a cold look on her face.
The eldest maid Chun Chun stood up straight and without talking nonsense to her, she directly stated her purpose.
When she heard whether it was fragrant or not, Mrs. Yao Er felt it was ironic and detained her son and daughter. She thought that giving her some inexplicable fragrance would be able to "coax" her?
Do you really think she is a fool?
Mrs. Yao Er secretly swore in her heart that if it was Brother Hong and Sister Ling who were fine, but if a hair was missing, she would never let the old woman go.
"How dare you make a trip with just such a small amount?" Mrs. Yao Er said with a sarcastic face, "When did the Yao family become so poor? They don't give away gold or jade, but they give incense.
I know it was a tattered thing that I picked up somewhere, so I just send the person away, really thinking that everyone else is just picking up rags..."
The eldest maid Spring: "..."
After hesitating, he still followed the plan and directly opened the lid of "Shuiyuxiang" and asked Mrs. Yao Er to smell it.
