The little maids also took a sniff and said, "Madam, I smell it. The fragrance is so fragrant."

Mrs. Fang quickly looked around, "Where is this fragrance coming from?"

Seeing her asking this, Du Wanchun quickly took out the small bottle of scented dew from his arms, handed it to Madam Fang and said, "Madam, is this what you are talking about?"

Mrs. Fang took two steps forward, bent down slightly, sniffed, and immediately smiled and said, "Yes, that's it."

Du Wanchun smiled and said: "This is the fragrance my mother just made. Madam, would you like to try it?" ?.?????.???

Mrs. Fang took it with a look of joy, held it in her hand until it reached a point on her wrist, and then smelled it.

Then, she closed her eyes and gently felt the fragrance.

Du Wanchun asked her, "Madam, do you like this fragrance?"

Mrs. Fang quickly looked at her and asked, "Did you really make this fragrant dew?"

Du Wanchun nodded and said, "Yes, we did it."

Mrs. Fang showed admiration to the two of them, "It's really a good craftsmanship. The fragrant dew made is better than the tribute from the Western Regions."

Aunt Zhou was slightly stunned and quickly said modestly: "It's not that the craftsmanship is good, it's that the soil and water here are good and the flowers grown there are fragrant."

Mrs. Fang smiled and nodded, "Yes, Cheng'an County is indeed a good place."

After she finished speaking, she stared at the bottle of perfume again and again, "Can you sell me this bottle of perfume?"

A smile appeared between Du Wanchun's brows, and he said slowly: "If Madam likes it, we can give you this bottle of fragrant dew."

Mrs. Fang was a little surprised. She looked at the two plainly dressed peasant women in front of her. She put the scented dew in her sleeves and said with a smile: "We in the Fang family generally don't accept gifts for no reason. Since you Give me fragrant dew, and I will give you a small gift in return."

After finishing speaking, he called to a maid behind him: "Help me get ten taels of silver for this girl."

"Ten taels?!" Aunt Zhou was shocked.

Du Wanchun was also very surprised, "Madam, is ten taels too many?"

Mrs. Fang looked at the fragrant dew in her hand, "It's not much. A bottle of high-quality fragrant dew usually costs me thirty taels."

Du Wanchun quickly took the money and thanked Mrs. Fang: "Thank you, Mrs. Fang."

Mrs. Fang loved the fragrant dew so much that she not only gave Du Wanchun ten taels of silver, but also sent someone to give them two chickens.

Du Wanchun and Mrs. Zhou sat in the carriage with the silver and chickens for a long time without losing their minds.

"Bang Chun, wasn't it a dream just now?" Aunt Zhou looked ahead with dull eyes.

Du Wanchun put the silver in his hand into her hand, "Mom, please touch and see this silver."

Aunt Zhou lowered her head, took the silver in her hand, rubbed it carefully, suddenly came back to her senses, and exclaimed: "Wang Chun, we are so lucky today, the first bottle of fragrant dew we made was sold!"

Du Wanchun held her hand and said, "Yes, Mom, your craftsmanship is good, you don't have to worry about no one buying it."

Aunt Zhou nodded, "Let's go back quickly and make some more fragrant dew."

"Well, mother, let's pick some more flowers by the way." Du Wanchun responded with a smile.

While the two were talking, the two chickens given to them by Mrs. Fang started clucking.

Du Wanchun quickly looked down and saw the two old hens clucking their buttocks and laying two eggs.

The round egg fell at their feet.

"Ah, this old hen has laid eggs!" Aunt Zhou was so surprised that she picked up an egg and took it in her hand to carefully look at it again and again. Unexpectedly, the chicken she just got laid eggs in the carriage.

Du Wanchun bent down and picked up another egg. The egg was still warm.

"Kekeke..."

The two old hens crowed again, their heads held high, and after a while they laid two more eggs.

This made Aunt Zhou very happy. "Usually, old hens can only lay one egg a day, but these two hens can really lay two eggs in a lifetime."

Du Wanchun smiled and then reached out to touch the chicken's feathers.

The old hen raised her butt and rolled out another egg.

Aunt Zhou looked at the eggs that rolled out and couldn't help but sigh: "It's time to give birth again. Master Fang's chickens are really good at giving birth!"

Du Wanchun also looked happy, "Mom, pick up the eggs quickly!"

"Okay, Wan Chun, hold the carriage steady and I'll pick it up." Aunt Zhou was immersed in the joy of picking up eggs before she could recover from the joy of earning ten taels of silver.

When the carriage arrived at the door of her house, Aunt Zhou took a dozen eggs wrapped in clothes and returned home.

"Zhao'er, Feng'er, come out quickly, it's time to eat eggs."

They have been poor for so long and haven't eaten eggs for a long time.

Zhou Zhao trotted over and saw the round eggs. He smiled happily and said, "Mom, I'll take them to the kitchen and cook them."

Aunt Zhou took out five eggs and handed them to him, then took the rest to the small woodshed in the backyard.

Du Wanchun followed her, carried the two old hens to the backyard, and locked them up with the two skinny ducks.

Zhou Ruiyuan was lighting a fire next to the boiler. Hearing the sound, he immediately strode over.

Du Wanchun showed him the ten taels of silver in his hand, "My lord, look, what is this?"
