Chapter 16 Fragrant Beads

Jiang Miao didn't know that she had unintentionally disturbed the pool of spring water in the hero's heart. At this time, she had already entered the Jinxiu Pavilion.

"Mrs. Jiang, why are you here today, but the sachet is ready?"

Shopkeeper Qin came up to him with a smile. Jiang Miao usually delivered goods once every three days, but he came just one day later.

"The sachet will take another two days," Jiang Miao shook her head gently.

"This time, I made some fragrant beads."

She took out two beads from the sachet. The rose fragrance was round and translucent, and the orchid fragrance was yellow and white. There was no trace of impurities in the fragrance beads. The fragrance was of the right intensity and smelled very good.

"Fragrant beads...this is actually a fragrant bead!"

Shopkeeper Qin had seen incense at her husband's house before, and it was given to the old lady by someone else, but the impurities were mottled and not as good as the one in Jiang Miao's hand.

She had long seen that Jiang Miao was capable, but her ability to make incense still surprised her. Who was this Lady Jiang? Could she be a noble person in distress?

Shopkeeper Qin's mind was filled with thoughts, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but she finally suppressed them all.

"Fragrance beads are expensive. They may not be sold in this small town. It would be great if they could be sent to the capital."

Shopkeeper Qin was worried, holding the treasure in his hand but worrying about burying it.

"The shopkeeper sells with confidence. Ordinary people can't afford it, but there are always ladies who know the goods."

Jiang Miao was not worried at all. Didn't the little lady yesterday just want to buy incense? No matter how poor a place is, there can be a few rich people.

"Hey, madam is right, I am short-sighted." Shopkeeper Qin slapped his mouth lightly, and the smile returned to his face.

"Then it's priced at twenty taels of silver each. What do you think, Mrs. Jiang?" This price is sky-high in the town, but in the capital, the cheapest incense is only ten taels, and the quality is not even as good as this fragrant pearl.

If she wasn't afraid that the high price would scare customers away, she would think that a hundred taels of silver would be enough.

"The shopkeeper's decision is fine." She just did it and left the management of the shop to professionals.

"Mrs. Jiang is open-minded," trust is the most important thing in a partnership business, and shopkeeper Qin likes Jiang Miao more and more now.

In the academy, Shen Yanqing was holding a book, but he didn't turn the pages for a long time. He stared at the sachet in front of him, picking it up and putting it down again, his eyebrows furrowed, and annoyance flashed in his eyes.

He was completely crazy. All he could think about was Jiang Miao, and he couldn't even read the book.

Shen Yanqing's heart was in a mess, and emotions he had never felt before were tugging at the tip of his heart, which was sour and astringent.

"Hey, you bought this sachet too!"

Xu Ziwen came closer and was about to touch it. He quickly pulled it into his arms, his tight lips revealing his resistance.

"Stingy, brother, even if you look at it, I won't steal it from you!" Xu Ziwen curled his lips, looking at him as if he was protecting her like a treasure.

"Yours is embroidered with patterns and looks better than mine. Which store did you buy it from? I'll ask my sister to buy one later too?"

"I didn't buy it." The sachet was placed close to her heart, and Shen Yanqing could hear the "thumping" of her heartbeat.

"I didn't buy it, was it embroidered by your wife?" Xu Ziwen thought of the woman who came to deliver the meal at noon, and felt that he had guessed the answer.

"Yes." Shen Yanqing hesitated when he heard the word "wife". The previously annoying title now felt sweet in his heart when he heard it.

"Hey!" Xu Ziwen wailed, how could his brother have such a good life? He just looks good, studies well, marries a beautiful and considerate wife, cooks and eats, all these good things have happened to him.

He showed off to him in the morning, isn't this just waiting for a slap in the face!

Shen Yanqing ignored him and continued to read books.

He will definitely pass this year's scientific examination.
