Chapter 16
When Yang returned to the Hou Mansion, he began to organize various gifts and personally took his daughter to various rooms, including his brother and sister-in-law, nephew and nieces. No one was left behind. Even the well-known nanny and maids gave them small gifts. It has to be said that Yang's relationship with people is really not a boast.
After two days of busyness, I finally stopped. In addition to practicing calligraphy and learning fragrance scores, I had time to go to the main courtyard to please the old lady and play with my cousins.
The second cousin Yang Lin came back from his grandfather's house. When he met the brother and sister, he was very enthusiastic and shared his own good things with him. He got along very happily with each other.
Children's feelings are always much simpler. Bu Zilan took Shuhui and the girls to play in the house. Zilan took out his treasure incense burner, opened the lid and let the girls put two pieces of charcoal on it, and then put a piece of sliver on it, which can also be replaced by mica slices. This is done to keep the fire incense so that it can be smoked and get a good smell while being smokeless.
Zilan proudly put a piece of cone incense, "This is what I made myself with my mother's incense recipe. The ones I picked are all flower petals and medicinal materials. Sister Hongxia did it, and I was responsible for moving my mouth, right?"
“Yes, that’s true.”
Hongxia smiled and covered the incense burner with a lid to prevent them from burning.
The fragrance slowly floats out, and there are many ways to combine the fragrance of flowers. It comes from your own inspiration and the incense master's ability to make fragrance, and the fragrance produced is different.
This one has a refreshing and elegant flavor from Zilan, which will smell noble and ethereal. The formula is simple and not complicated, but if you match it well, you will show your skills and talent.
Yang, his sister-in-law and the old ladies were talking in the main room. The two children were playing in the incense burner beside them. Slowly, they also smelled the shallow and elegant but not greasy fragrance that penetrated into their breath. It smelled like it was there or there, and it seemed extremely comfortable and pleasant, making people happy.
"Huh? This tastes very good. Is it your new fragrance? It's getting better and better."
The old lady turned around and took a look. The two children were lying on the soft couch and rolling and playing, laughing happily, muttering and not knowing what to say, and they were so stupid.
"I made it? Zilan asked Hongxia to make it. Is Hongxia really made it by Lan'er? You are not allowed to lie."
Yang has been very suspicious until now.
Hongxia stepped forward and replied, "I did do it all the time, but how to adjust the amount of medicine to add is indeed the lady's idea alone, and I did not lie."
"This child is really talented. This scent seems simple but knowledgeable. One point will be too thick and not ethereal enough. One point will be less layered and gradual fresh. Yueqing, you must cultivate this child well. In the future, her achievements in scenting may be above you."
The old lady is a princess, and I have never seen any good things before, so I still have this little vision.
"I also think this fragrance is particularly pleasant and makes people feel happy, just like flowers blooming but not choking. It seems that the belt is stained with fragrance, and it seems to be there and there is nothing while walking around, which feels very beautiful."
The second sister-in-law Ma commented with a smile, with an admiration on her face.
"Is it really that good? Isn't it a little too light?"
Although Yang is proud of his daughter, he is still low-key and humble.
"No, there are thousands of fragrances, and there are always preferences. Although this fragrance is simple but distinctive, it may not be bad. This fragrance is elegant and ethereal, showing its nobility, but it is light and not strong. Some people like it."
The old lady shook her head and disagreed with Yang's words. She liked this fragrance very much.
Sister Xu glanced at the two girls and said, "Actually, I think someone will like this Hexiang when you sell it. Don't you have a shop in Beijing? I think you can organize it and prepare to resume your old business."
Yang smiled and said, "I do have this intention, but I still have to take care of my children and there are other industries that need to be managed. I am afraid that I will not be busy alone, and I am afraid that I will bump into someone."
"With your father and I, who dares not bully you without being too jealous of your pole?"
The old lady really loves Yang and has been adopted and raised from birth. Yang is really close to her.
Yang thought for a moment, "I always thought that someone would help me. I wonder if my sister-in-law would be willing to help me. I will make a frying spices and settle the accounts and find someone to take care of my sister-in-law. We women make some money for makeup. If my sister-in-law dislikes the small business, she will pretend that I didn't say anything."
Yang felt that he could not eat alone, but he still had to take his sister-in-law to work together, not for how much money he made, but for future connections and relatives.
The two wives were quite surprised and a little touched and heartwarming. This sister-in-law never asked for trouble and helped them everywhere. She didn't leave any gifts when she went out and she was considerate.
This is because I am afraid that if I live in the Marquis' Mansion for a long time, I will be disliked. I want to work with us to do business and make money together, so that I will get along with each other more happily.
Zi Lan also gave her a thumbs up for her mother in her heart. There is no eternal friendship in this world, only unchanging interests. If interests are bound to many things, it will be easy to talk about.
"Well, it's cheaper for you to work with your sisters-in-laws. You're much smarter than you. It's good for you to learn more with your sisters-in-laws."
The old lady looked at her daughter with praise and agreed with her daughter's actions. This is how good she can be.
Ma glanced at his sister-in-law Xu and sought her opinions.
Xu thought about it and smiled warmly, "My sister is kind-hearted, she is a little good and never forgets us. If this happens, then we will pay some money, and if you want to do it, you can do it better.
With my sister's ability, our connections in Beijing will definitely make money. Your second sister-in-law and I agreed with you. Just focus on making perfume and leave the rest to us."
She knew that her sister-in-law's ability to make perfume was one of the best in the capital, and she was a sensational figure back then.
"I feel relieved with my sister-in-law protecting me. The first one is to use this girl's scent. I think this scent is very suitable for smoking clothes."
"You don't ask your daughter if she agrees, just make the decision to sell it."
Ma was so amused and cried that he was closer to this sister-in-law in his heart. He couldn't blame the fact that everyone liked this sister-in-law and he really knew how to be a human being.
"Lan'er, would you like to sell the incense to us? I'll buy you candy after I sell it?"
Yang slapped his daughter's little butt.
"I am willing, my aunts are so kind to me. It is my filial piety to be able to do my part. Give it a nice name."
Zilan waved his hand and felt it didn't matter. Isn't her mother making money just because their family made money? The tree in the Hou Mansion is deep, and there will be many places that can help her father and brother in the future.
The two sisters-in-law showed happy smiles and hugged Zi Lan and kissed him, "Okay, let Lan'er name him. Whatever you say you want to call him, let's use the name Lan'er."
"The fragrance of clothes."
Zilan said its original name, which was called Yilaixiang, which means what Ma said, Yilaixiang is as fragrant as a flower.
"Okay, just call this name, I think it's very appropriate."
