Si Haochen sat down next to Mingruo, leaving the seat opposite to Yan Zhaobai.
"Xiao Jiu'er, do you want that beauty cream? Brother, I'll go find it for you right now!" In Yan Zhaobai's view, Xiao Jiu'er has now returned to his childhood, being coquettish and bragging. He looks more sensible and weak than when he grew up.
Much cuter.
Mingruo held her cheek: "Fifth brother, do you dislike me for being ugly?"
Yan Zhaobai was startled for a moment: "Our little Jiu'er is the most beautiful girl."
"Isn't this the end?" Mingruo poked her cheek, "I'm a person who is born with beauty and it's hard to give up on yourself. I don't need any beauty cream at all!"
"..." Although the girl is a real sister, she is really beautiful. But she is so shameless when talking so boldly!
"I previously traced it from the third concubine, and found out that the balm on her hand was obtained from her cousin. Her cousin's family runs a trading company, and they deal in many goods.
We have them all." Si Haochen picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "But the source of those ointments cannot be traced. They are all the responsibility of the eldest young master of the Sun family. They are not sold in the shop. They are purchased from the eldest young master and his wife of the sun family.
Buy from anywhere.”
Knock, knock, knock, there was a knock on the door of the room: "Master, madam, I have found an empty box containing beauty cream."
Zi Su just finished making the bed and came out of the inner room. Si Haochen winked, Zi Su opened the door and brought in the small box wrapped in silk.
Mingruo took out a pair of disposable medical gloves from his 'sleeve pocket' and put them on, uncovered the silk cloth, and opened the lid of the small white jade box. The box was empty, with only a thin layer of pink ointment remaining at the bottom of the box.
Fat, a burst of fragrance hits your face.
The three people present all moved back almost at the same time. Obviously, they all felt that the fragrance was a bit overpowering. Mingruo closed the lid to block the fragrance from wafting out, but the fragrance that filled the air did not
Dispersed.
Si Haochen was sure that the smell was the same as what he had smelled in the imperial capital before, and he couldn't help but frown.
"This ointment smells... Why does it seem to have a strange smell?" Yan Zhaobai said hesitantly.
"Don't doubt that there is something wrong with your nose. If it wasn't to cover up the smell, there would be no need to add so many spices to make the fragrance kill mosquitoes." Mingruo wrapped the box in silk cloth and handed it to Zi Su, "
Just say that I smelled it and didn't like it, and let the shopkeeper get rid of the box."
"Yes." Zisu took the box and went out.
Ming Ruo took off the ball of gloves to throw them away, Yan Zhaobai stood up and opened the window for ventilation, and stood by the window.
"No matter how weird this ointment is, no matter how expensive it is, it's just a business. What kind of trouble can it cause?" Yan Zhaobai didn't understand at all why Xiao Jiuer and Prince Yun cared so much about this ointment.
"As for what kind of commotion this ointment can cause, you will only know after seeing it." Mingruo said to Yan Zhaobai, "We have to wait here until Changshan takes the road to lead us, and we will go to the place where the ointment is sold tomorrow."
"Okay." Yan Zhaobai nodded and went back to his room instead of staying here as an eyesore.
Si Haochen raised his hand and flicked Mingruo's forehead: "You are so heartless, you don't want your husband after you see your brother?"
"It's unfair. When did I stop wanting you?" Mingruo rubbed his forehead.
"You didn't invite me to go with you just now." Si Haochen snorted.
"What do you mean, if I don't invite you to come with me, I will go alone?" Mingruo made a shocked expression, "This Xunshui City is a mixed place at the junction of the Three Kingdoms. You are not afraid of throwing me on the street.
The flower photographer took a picture of me!"
Si Haochen directly took Mingruo into his arms: "As a husband, I won't let you go out alone."
"I promised to stay with me forever, but now I have to invite you to come with me, huh!" Mingruo rolled her eyes, "Sure enough - a man's mouth is a liar! Hmm..."
Si Haochen lowered his head and kissed the taunting little mouth. He couldn't explain it with words, so he had to suppress it with force!
There were not many pedestrians on the streets in the early morning. Most of them were people who got up early and went to buy vegetables and fruits in a hurry.
Ming Ruo was sitting in the carriage, looking like she hadn't woken up. Since her fifth brother was also sitting in the carriage, she didn't have the nerve to sleep on Si Haochen. She leaned against the carriage, bit by bit with her little head.
Si Haochen stretched out his hand to pull the princess over, put her little head on his shoulder and pillowed her: "Go to sleep, I'll call you when we get there."
"Oh." Mingruo stopped being pretentious and closed her eyes.
When the carriage stopped at the door of Jian Mingxuan, Si Haochen stretched out his hand to pick up the little girl.
Mingruo didn't sleep well. She felt that the carriage stopped shaking, so she opened her eyes: "Are we here?"
"Um."
Mingruo rubbed his eyes and looked outside: "Hey, are there so many people? The business is much better than in a restaurant."
From the window on Mingruo's side, you can see just opposite the restaurant, which is a quite large house. Above the black door, there are three gilt characters "Wuchen Palace" hanging. Because the plaque is brand new, it shines in the morning light.
With golden light.
I saw the dark door was closed tightly, and long queues had formed on both sides. Most of the people in the queue were well-dressed ladies, although there were maids and ladies holding umbrellas and fanning themselves.
But they are all lining up by themselves.
Mingruo and his party did not stop at the door, and went directly to the private room on the second floor of Jian Mingxuan. Mingruo ordered a pot of tea and some steamed snacks, and then opened the window. From here, the entire courtyard of Wuchen Palace could be seen.
Looking around, the servants were setting up the venue. A red carpet was laid out in the courtyard, and an incense table was displayed under the eaves. An unknown statue of a god was enshrined on the incense table, and it was covered with golden silk.
There is a low couch on the right side of the incense table, with a futon in front of it. Next to it, there is a long table, with a pile of small white jade boxes stacked on it. There are also a bunch of large boxes stacked behind it, and they should all be packed separately.
of balm.
Mingruo had eaten a whole cage of shrimp dumplings by himself and was already a little full: "The shrimps in Xunshui City are fresher than those in the Imperial Capital, and the shrimp dumplings are also more delicious."
"Yeah." Si Haochen gave Mingruo a look that said, "Bring more when you go back."
Mingruo also blinked and gave her boyfriend a 'like'!
"Ahem." Yan Zhaobai felt that he didn't need to eat anything. The dog food was already full. "Xiao Jiuer didn't eat much fish and shrimp before and didn't care. The fish and shrimp in Nanrong are the freshest and most delicious.
"
Yan Zhaobai was not surprised that Xiao Jiuer suddenly liked eating fish and shrimp. He usually got tired of eating fish and shrimp every day while stationed in Haiphong. But along the way, whenever he went to a restaurant to eat, the dishes made with fish and shrimp were all very delicious. I thought.
I guess Xiao Jiuer likes to eat it because the cook cooks it well.
"Coming, coming." Mingruo looked into the yard.
Four guards came from the backyard carrying a chariot. On the chariot sat a woman wearing a white hibiscus gauze skirt and a veil covering her face.
