Shen Li looked up and saw that it was the wife of the prefect. She stood up and took the initiative to greet him: "Madam, what do you need? I'll introduce you to someone."

The prefect's wife Lan Xueyan looked at Shen Li and said, "I have seen you before, right? You look so familiar."

Shen Li smiled politely: "Madam, you have a good memory. I have attended your banquet before with Mr. Jin Duobao."

Lan Xueyan nodded in understanding: "I remember now, it's you. Did you open this shop?"

"Yes, ma'am, whatever scent you want to buy, I'll get it for you."

"I've always used the scent of night-blooming primrose, and I want to try other scents."

Shen Li took out several scents that were currently on sale and placed them on the table: "Madam, you can sit down and try them slowly."

Lan Xueyan sat on the nearest chair, then opened the ointments one by one and smelled them a few times. Finally, she seemed a little disappointed: "I still like the smell of night-blooming primrose the best."

The maid behind her said, "Madam, I told you that there are no new scents. I bought all the scents for you before, but you picked your favorite night-blooming primrose. You shouldn't have made such a tiring trip."

Lan Xueyan turned around and glanced at her: "Too much talk."

The maid didn't dare to say a word now.

Looking at this situation, Shen Li felt that this lady should be nice to her maid: "Madam, I have one more here, why don't you try it?" After saying that, she took out a box of ointment from the cloth bag on her back and handed it to her.

Lan Xueyan took it, opened the lid and smelled it, her eyes lit up immediately: "Can I try it?"

"As you wish, ma'am."

Lan Xueyan couldn't wait to dip her finger in some ointment, rubbed it on her wrist, and sniffed it a few times: "Girl, this smells really good, but I can't tell what flower it is."

"These are two kinds of flowers, one is rose and the other is peach blossom." This was discovered by Shen Li during an experiment when she had nothing to do. She was thinking whether she could create a mixed scent of several kinds like perfume. When experimenting, she also used flowers with light fragrance. In the end, she found that only these two kinds of flowers produced a new scent. She didn't know what kind of scent it was, but it smelled good.

"No wonder I couldn't tell what kind of flower it was. It turns out it's a mixture of two kinds of flowers." Lan Xueyan sniffed it again and asked, "Miss, how much is this?"

"Madam, this is not on sale yet. It is a new product of mine. As for this box, I will give it to you. When I start selling it later, you can send someone to buy it."

"How can I do that?" Lan Xueyan said, and then looked at the maid behind her: "Take the money."

The maid hurriedly took out a silver ingot. Shen Li looked at it and thought it was at least five taels. She hurriedly said, "Really, no need, Madam. Just consider it as our fate. It's a small gift from me. It's not worth much."

Lan Xueyan smiled and said, "Your name is Shen Li, right?"

"Madam, do you know my name?"

"I just remembered that my husband mentioned you to me before. He said that you opened a perfume workshop and resettled the people in the slums. It helped him solve a problem. He even praised you for being so capable."

"That's too much praise, Mr. Prefect."

"No need to be modest. Seeing is believing. I also think you are a good girl. I will accept the ointment. When you are free, you can come to my house to play."

Shen Li nodded: "I will definitely visit you if I have the chance."

After seeing Lan Xueyan off, Shen Li sat down. She intended to make friends with the prefect's wife. Firstly, she was a nice person, and secondly, if she opened a massage parlor in the future, she would have to promote it.

Since it is aimed at women, who in this state could be more suitable than the prefect's wife?

"Ali, are you researching new products?" Li Erya asked.

"Yeah, I was just thinking about it when I had nothing to do."

"When can it be made and sold?"

"When I have time, I will go to the workshop and teach them." Shen Li suddenly thought that she could make a few bottles of perfume, and then give them to others privately. Such rare things cannot be bought, and giving them as gifts is the best gift.

Find some time to go to the workshop to study.

She stood up and wanted to tell the two that she was leaving, but she found that Li Daya was distracted by the account book. It seemed that she was worried about something.

So he walked to the counter and said, "Sister Daya, what are you thinking about?"

Li Daya smiled and said, "Nothing... nothing."

Shen Li felt more and more that she had something on her mind, and this smile was obviously a cover-up: "Sister Daya, if you have anything on your mind, you can tell me."

Li Erya sent a customer away, and then walked to the counter: "Sister, it's okay to talk to Ali. She is not a rigid person and will not laugh at you."

Li Daya closed the account book, walked to the table and sat down: "Ali, I don't mean to hide it from you, it's just a little difficult to say."

Shen Li followed and sat opposite: "Is it about feelings?"

"Ali is smart and guessed it right at once."

In fact, Shen Li felt that it was not because she was smart, but what could make a person upset was mostly emotions: "Sister Daya, do you have someone you like? Is it Uncle Fang?"

Li Daya opened her eyes wide in surprise: "How did you know?"

"Guessed." Before, her ex-husband Sun Sheng came to make trouble, and Fang Tianya saved her. At that time, Shen Li felt that the way Li Daya looked at Fang Tianya seemed a little different. After that, Fang Tianya never came to the provincial capital with them, saying that he would take care of it in the village. Later, when he moved to the provincial capital, he almost never went out.

These signs are actually not difficult to guess.

"Ali, you know, he is twenty years older than me, but I don't care. I am a divorced woman and I had planned to never marry again in my life, but I happened to meet him."

"Sister Daya, did Uncle Fang reject you?"

Li Daya smiled bitterly, "Yes, he said that he is old enough to be my father and asked me not to waste my time on him. But I can feel that he is not completely indifferent to me. It's just that because of age, he can't get over it in his heart, and he is afraid of being laughed at by the world. He is just a coward."

Shen Li naturally understood what Fang Tianya was thinking. In modern times, with such a big age gap, being together also requires courage, not to mention here: "Sister Daya, Uncle Fang had a knot in his heart before. I think he may still have someone in his heart. Why don't you not push him too hard first, let him slowly let you into his heart, and then talk about other things."

"I felt it too. Thank you, Ali, for not looking at me strangely."

"How could that be? As long as it's true love, age is not a problem."

"Yes, you are right. Age is not a problem at all. But he is avoiding me now. What do you say I should do?"
