On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

When Mrs. Cao saw Beibei leave, she gave the maid a look and she asked everyone else to leave.

Only then did she happily hold the perfume and couldn't let it go.

"This thing is really rare, beautiful and fragrant. I have never seen such a beautiful bottle."

"Indeed, this bottle alone is probably worth a lot of money," the old woman exclaimed. "The Qian family shop has a glass bottle that is bigger than this one, but not as beautiful as this one."

"Some things can't just be judged by size," Mrs. Cao said. "Small and exquisite can better reflect the good craftsmanship."

"The fragrance is also very special, light and elegant, as if you are in a sea of ​​flowers."

The old woman sniffed and said, "Madam is absolutely right. And as the princess said, this is tailor-made for you. Not only is it unique, but the fragrance is also more suitable for you."

Madam Cao's eyes were full of smiles: "Princess, this is really thoughtful."

"I just sent so much food, and now I'm sending this big gift. How should I repay you?"

"Do you know what little brother Beibei is doing today?"

The old woman whispered, "He went to see the master first. I was listening outside. He seemed to mention something about storytelling. It was not far away, so I didn't hear it too clearly and didn't dare to get too close."

"The housekeeper should know."

"Go and call the butler."

"Yes."

The butler arrived soon. When he heard the lady asking about the purpose of Beibei's visit, he did not hide it, as it was not a major military or national matter.

Mrs. Cao listened with her eyes narrowed, stroking the pattern on the perfume bottle with her fingers.

"A bookstore, telling stories, and saying that someone might cause trouble?"

"Then I'm afraid this book is not simple," Madam Cao said to the maid, "Send a few people, the smart ones, to various storytelling venues to listen to what the book is about, and then ask the storyteller what the story is about."

"Yes."

The old woman understood and made arrangements immediately.

Madam Cao looked at the invitation on the table. The maid saw it and said with a smile, "Madam, there will be Madam Wu's flower viewing party in two days. You can spray this perfume, it will surely open the eyes of other ladies."

Madam Cao smiled lightly: "Indeed, it suits my taste."

"But where are the flowers at this time of year? What can we enjoy?"

The old woman replied, "I heard that the Wu family built a greenhouse last summer, and they moved all the flowers in the fall. After a warm winter, maybe the flowers will bloom now?"

Madam Cao seemed to be thinking, "Building a flower shed is also worth showing off? Madam Wu is that kind of person. If she has no purpose, she will not waste this money."

It is not cheap to hold a banquet, so tea and snacks are essential, and they cannot be too bad. The guests are not ordinary people, they have eaten and seen things, and some of them have picky tastes, which can be tasted at a glance.

If the time comes, you won't be able to show your face and you will be embarrassed.

The old woman chuckled: "That's right, Madam Wu has always been stingy and loves to show off. How about I go and ask around first?"

Madam Cao nodded slightly: "Okay, by the way, do you still have the snacks that the princess gave you?"

"Yes, there are two pieces of each left."

Madam Cao sighed and said sadly, "She didn't eat much, but she's almost finished? Well, you can go to Wu's house and say thank you. Take a piece of each snack and let her try it."

"Are you thinking of making a recommendation for the princess?"

"Yes, didn't the princess say that this is for us to taste? We have already found a shop and it can be opened at any time. If the Wu family uses it, let them taste it first. After a few days, I will find an excuse to hold another event and use it. There is no need to worry about not being able to make a name for myself."

"The princess's things are very good. We didn't force them to do so. Once they try them, there's no reason why they won't like them."

"In fact, we are just going with the flow and paving the way for the princess in advance. Otherwise, I really can't think of anything I can do to help the princess. I am really ashamed."

"Yes, I understand. I'll go right away."

"Wait," Madam Cao stopped her again, "Let me not say it's the princess's shop. I guess the princess wants to keep a low profile. It will definitely be managed by her subordinates. The products are good, so there's no need to mention the princess's name, lest someone say they buy it just for the princess's name."

"Yes, then the old servant said that it was a new shop you discovered and thought it was good."

"it is good."

The old woman took the order and left the house with the things.

Beibei met with the yamen runners from each group and gave each of them a few taels of silver, as well as a "coupon" for the Qian family restaurant, which could be used to dine at half price.

That was the Qian family's restaurant. Although the food was delicious, it was indeed expensive. They could just buy one or two dishes occasionally to satisfy their hunger, but they couldn't bear to have a banquet.

But with this "coupon", it's different, half price! I can't even think of such a good thing.

Everyone patted their chests and said, "Don't worry, little brother. We will start patrolling from this afternoon. Anyone who dares to cause trouble in the bookstore will be caught and given a beating first."

Beibei thanked them again and again: "Everyone has worked hard. No matter which bookstore you go to, just make sure the tea and fruits are charged to our Second Young Master's Bookstore."

"you are welcome."

They sent Beibei out of the yamen, and Beibei went back happily to report.

Huo Changhe was not there. Yan Ruyu had just had her wound examined by the secret guard and had the medicine changed, and she had not yet left the yard.

When Beibei told Yan Ruyu what had happened, she was very satisfied.

"Well done," Yan Ruyu praised. "Go and tell the owner of Qian's restaurant, send him 1,000 taels of silver, and tell him to treat any yamen runners well and not to neglect them."

"I've already gone to say hello, but the shopkeeper said he doesn't want money. The dishes you taught them last time sold very well, and the share after the New Year has not been calculated for you yet."

I've been so busy lately that Yan Ruyu almost forgot about it.

Years ago, she went to a restaurant, called the shopkeeper and the chef, and cooked a few New Year's Eve dishes in their kitchen. She also sent a batch of ingredients from the abbot's space.

It was because of the new dishes and ingredients that Qian's Restaurant not only did not close during the Chinese New Year, but was even more popular than usual. To this day, almost every table orders those dishes.

The shopkeeper was both tired and happy. He settled accounts and kept records with the accountant every day. The annual report he sent to his employer during the New Year gave him a little glory.

During the Chinese New Year, he came specially to pay New Year's greetings, brought many gifts, thanked repeatedly, and said that the dividends would be calculated every month.

Yan Ruyu thought it was too much trouble and asked him to calculate it every quarter.

Today, when Beibei went to say hello, the shopkeeper immediately seized the opportunity. There was no time for him to ask for money or even to show his courtesy.

He immediately said that he had reserved a private room for the yamen runners to use, and they could eat whenever they came.

After listening to what Beibei said, Yan Ruyu was even more satisfied. Beibei was thorough and thoughtful in his work, and he thought of everything in advance, which made her feel much less worried.

"Go and tell the accountant to raise your monthly salary by one third starting this month."

Beibei said quickly: "I have enough food and clothing. It is my blessing to be able to work for the master. Now I have more than enough."

Yan Ruyu said with a hint of meaning: "You just need to have enough food and clothes? Why don't you save money to marry a wife?"

Beibei blinked and said firmly: "Marry!"

"I'll go talk to the accountant right away!"
