After returning to Qingxiang Garden, Qiao Ruanxiang immediately asked Zhiqiu to wash the bowl and clean the offal, and also take care of everything in the small kitchen.
She sat by the window, holding her chin in her palm, looking out at the courtyard in a daze.
She watched him drink the extinct medicine with her own eyes. The eldest son of the Su family would not have any more children.
This was what Mr. Dong had done to her first, and she was just retaliating. He couldn't blame her later.
In addition, what she said to Dong today completely dispelled her doubts about herself, making her think that she was still the same Qiao Ruanxiang whom she had manipulated.
Of course, there are also unexpected gains. Su Mo's suspicion of himself and Su Wu has intensified, and the Dong family wants to kill Mrs. Su.
Su Wu's matter is easy to solve, but Mrs. Su's matter...
He will stay in the Su Mansion for a while. Mrs. Su is the only fair and impartial person, and he will need her in the future.
Nothing can happen to her.
But I don't have enough manpower and can't keep an eye on her all the time. I can't tell the old lady clearly about my identity.
Even if he said it clearly, Mrs. Su might not believe it.
On the contrary, it will cause unnecessary suspicion, and it will be difficult to use Mrs. Su in the future.
-
There was still no movement on Wan Qinghe's side, it was eerily quiet.
There was no special news from Aunt Yuan.
It was the second roommate who suddenly sent someone a message.
It was a high-end incense tasting party in the capital, and it was said to be a thank you gift from her for sending incense.
In this fragrance tasting event, the most powerful perfumers from all over the world will attend, making and mixing fragrances on site.
Not only that, but Hu Qin, the number one luthier in Beijing, played live.
It is said that according to each fragrance, it will play the notes that match the fragrance, so that the fragrance can reach the highest artistic conception.
Therefore, those who can get the invitations are the nobles and distinguished people in the capital.
How could the second wife be willing to give such an expensive invitation to her?
Thinking back to her previous life, she also heard about this incense tasting party.
I wanted to participate, but after listening to Su Mo's sarcastic words, I learned some inside information.
Thinking of this, Qiao Ruanxiang suddenly understood.
This is the original purpose.
"Tell the second lady, thank you for her invitation. I will definitely go tomorrow."
Many perfume makers gathered together, and she happened to be able to see them.
The people in the second room left, and Qiao Ruanxiang was about to go out to the incense shop.
The incense made for Han Ling has been ready for a long time, and she is preparing another sachet.
As soon as he arrived at the courtyard gate, he saw Manager Qiao walking over in a hurry.
Whispered something.
Qiao Ruanxiang was stunned, this was unexpected.
She thought secretly for a moment and said, "Does Wan Qinghe know?"
Manager Qiao nodded.
Taking a breath, Qiao Ruanxiang pursed her lips and thought: "Then prepare more supplements in Jia Yun'er's courtyard, and add an extra twenty taels to the amount."
When Manager Qiao heard this, he looked embarrassed again.
"One more thing, the Su family's properties are getting more and more excessive. The income collected this month is less than 5,000 taels. Most of this is the income from the Su family's property in the hands of the original eldest lady, the two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments. The family property has been accounted for almost nothing.”
They went too far. Do you really think the lady didn't notice that they colluded with the corresponding manager to falsify the accounts?
Qiao Ruanxiang thought for a while and asked, "Will this money be enough for Su Mansion's daily expenses?"
"It's barely enough, but there's not much money left in the books. If there's a big event or something, it's just enough once, but it won't be enough if it's more."
She nodded and said: "That's okay, then don't worry about it. As long as the property does not suffer losses, it will be enough to manage the Su family's property, which was originally a big house, and it will be enough for the Su family's expenses."
"Can I get an extra twenty taels from Aunt Yun?"
Twenty taels doesn't seem like much, but if others find out, they have to add twenty taels. With such a large Su family, it's not a small sum.
Qiao Ruanxiang knew that Manager Qiao was worried and said, "Add it as usual. If anyone asks, just say it's a special situation."
Qiao Ruanxiang named her incense shop the fifth incense.
Because of its remote location, the store's name doesn't sound like a serious store.
In addition, it is usually closed and only opened when she comes here to make incense.
So no customers came into the store at all.
However, she didn't care, this was a place where she simply made incense and meditated.
The sachet was ready in my hand, and I wrote eight words with a pen.
Know people by smelling fragrance, know people and know country.
It was a profound sentence that she extracted from Big Brother's article.
Her handwriting is beautiful, and it falls on the sachet. The pattern of the handwriting and the sachet are particularly suitable for the scene.
She looks extremely delicate and beautiful.
"It's beautiful. I didn't expect my sister-in-law to write well."
There was a sudden sound above my head.
But the sound was like spring water flowing into the lake, clear and pleasant.
He raised his eyes and saw Su Wu's inky eyes, and his smile as pale as snow.
I wonder if I have seen his smile once. After seeing him this time, I didn't feel uncomfortable, but felt very calm.
She calmly withdrew her eyes, pointed to the chair in front of her, and motioned for him to sit down.
I thought to myself that he came at the right time, and I was waiting for him. I was also thinking about whether I could meet him today.
Just as I was thinking about it, this person appeared.
Qiao Ruanxiang took out a porcelain bottle from her arms and handed it to him.
"This is the fragrant dew that I promised my uncle. It smells like osmanthus."
Su Wu took it, holding the porcelain bottle with long knuckles. The porcelain bottle was glowing with a soft white light, making his hands fairer and more beautiful.
The owner of those hands opened the bottle cap, took a sniff, and the smile on his cheeks deepened.
The crisp voice sounded again, "Thank you, sister-in-law, I like it very much."
Looking away from his hand, Qiao Ruanxiang pursed her lips and said, "You're welcome, this is a thank you gift for you."
He thought of something again and asked curiously, "But why did I order Zhiqiu to send Xianglu to your yard a few days ago, but the servant said you were not here and still refused to accept it?"
"It's just a bottle of fragrant dew, why can't they accept it?"
Su Wu coughed slightly when he heard this, and his eyes averted a bit.
But his droopy eyelashes were well covered up by him.
He opened his mouth to explain: "This is just my habit. I am worried that my servants will take things they shouldn't, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
He couldn't say that he was doing this just to see her.
Misunderstand?
Did he know that Su Mo was secretly observing, so he deliberately refused to accept it?
But it was a mistake. If he accepted it, Su Mo would probably start a fuss on the spot.
"Yeah, too."
After Qiao Ruanxiang finished speaking, she continued to work with her head down. After writing the words on the sachet, she was about to put the scent balls.
This fragrant ball is different from the ordinary fragrant balls kneaded from fragrant powder, but is a real pearl, and the pearl is coated with a fragrant ointment made of fragrant dew.
The balm is a transparent solid wrapped in pearls. It not only looks good, but also has a long-lasting fragrance.
The only drawback is that the smell is very strong, but if it is wrapped in a sachet and released through the sachet, the fragrance is just right.
After she finished pretending, she saw that the man in front of her had not left yet, and something suddenly occurred to her.
Old Mrs. Su loved him the most. If she hadn't protected him, he might have been bullied by Su Mo and the others.
She only thought of this now.
An idea struck immediately.
