Shen Li naturally understood the awkwardness of Old Lady Shen. She had always looked down on her and even mocked her.

Now she has been to the gates of hell, only to find out that the person who saved her is the person she has always looked down upon. It would be strange if she didn't feel complicated.

"Since you're awake, you're fine. Just take good care of yourself." After saying that, Shen Li saw the prescription on the table and picked it up: "I'll bring the medicine to you later. Remember to take it on time. If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

She knew that they probably didn't have money to buy the medicine, so they thought of sending the medicine to them. She didn't give them money rashly. If she gave too much, people would think she was taking it for granted and would keep asking for more. If she gave too little, they would think she was stingy and didn't want to pay even though she had money.

In short, no matter what, it may not please people.

So this matter still troubled her.

Old Mrs. Shen coughed a few times and said weakly, "No... Come back more often if you have nothing to do."

This time it was Shen Li's turn to feel complicated. She glanced at Old Lady Shen and nodded.

Shen Laifu also said attentively: "Shen Li, come back more often if you have nothing to do."

After getting on the carriage, Shen Li looked at Liu Dahua and said, "Mom, I thought you would stay a little longer."

"No, after all, I've been separated from them for too long, there's nothing much to say, but I want to come visit more often in the future, Ali, you..."

Shen Li knew that Liu Dahahua was afraid that she would not agree, so she smiled and said, "Mom, I have no objection. Come if you want to." Then she told her about giving the silver that she had thought of before.

"A Li is right. Uncle and Third Aunt are like that. They always find fault with everything." Shen Liang said.

"Well, that's true, but we can't really watch them starve." Liu Dahua said dejectedly.

"But mother, are we going to support them for the rest of their lives? They do nothing and have to rely on others." Shen Li actually looked down on this. If Shen Yanyan had established herself in Kyoto, she might send money back, but that was a story for later.

The problem now is that if we give them money, they will become greedy, but if we don't give them money, we can't just watch them starve to death.

"I understand, but what can I do?"

Shen Li thought for a while and said, "Mom, I'll find someone to arrange some work for them. I think cousin Shen Wang is a capable person. And there are also uncles, uncles and uncles. In this way, at least food and clothing will not be a problem."

"But your uncle is like that, can he go out and work?"

"You have to go whether you can or not, mother. After I find them, you go and talk to them. Be firm and tell them that if they don't go, they will starve to death and you can just ignore them. If all else fails, you can just say you will sever all ties with them. When you go to see them later, don't give them money. You can just take something at most."

Liu Dahua nodded: "I understand what Ali means, leave this matter to me, you need to take care of business matters, you don't need to worry about these things at home."

Shen Li nodded, sat down next to Liu Dahua, leaned his head on her shoulder, and said coquettishly: "Mom, you are so kind."

Liu Dahua patted Shen Li's head lovingly: "Mom, I can't help you with anything now. It's not like when I was in Pingjia Village, I could still do something. Now I can still handle these things at home, so don't worry."

"Now that we are not short of money at home, it is natural for mother to enjoy herself. How can we let her work? She should be like the ladies of the wealthy families in the state capital, growing flowers, going shopping, dressing up, and doing more things she likes every day."

"Yes, Ali is the most filial."

Shen Liang agreed with Shen Li's approach: "Mom, how about I go with you?"

"You're afraid that I can't be ruthless. Don't worry, I know what to do. You don't have to go. You, a junior, can't say anything."

"Well, mother, you have to be prepared for them to say some unpleasant things, especially Third Aunt." Shen Liang said.

"I know. When has she ever said anything nice? Don't worry. Mother knows them better than you."

Shen Li didn't say anything else, but thought about what to assign them to do. She would not bring them to the workshop. To put it bluntly, she didn't trust them and she would not take the risk.

With Shen Lai Fu's personality, if he worked under her, he would probably take it as a token of authority. She would not let him interfere with her business.

Now we can only arrange them to other places so that someone can keep an eye on them and let them work well with peace of mind.

But Shen Li didn't really know anyone in the provincial capital, so it seemed that she could only ask Lan Xueyan for help. Anyway, she owed so many favors, so this little bit wouldn't make a difference. If she had the chance in the future, she would repay them.

After returning home, Shen Li and Liu Xin hurried out again. They visited all the shops selling strange things and bottles and jars in the provincial capital. Surprisingly, they actually found a shop selling glass bottles.

One bottle costs thirty taels, and there are only a few in stock, only eight in total.

Shen Li bought them all.

She wanted to make some perfume for Lan Xueyan. This couldn't be considered as returning a favor, but it was definitely a good gift.

Shen Li spent a whole day in the workshop, experimenting repeatedly, and finally made three bottles of perfume with different scents, one with tea scent, one with peach scent, and one with osmanthus scent.

As long as you have the distillation equipment, it is not difficult to create tea and peach aromas. You can make them after a few repeated attempts.

In fact, if she studies it carefully, she can make a mixture of several scents. But now she is in a hurry to use it, so naturally she has no time to study it. Even if she studies it, she cannot produce it in large quantities, so let's wait and see.

Carrying three bottles of perfume, Shen Li took Liu Xin to the prefectural government.

"Miss Shen, why are you here?" Lan Xueyan said with a smile.

Hearing this address, Shen Li felt that it was not very appropriate. At her age, she was no longer a young girl here, so she smiled and said, "Madam, you are like my family, so call me Ali."

"Okay, I'll call you Ali from now on."

Shen Li was familiar with her, so he spoke directly: "Madam, I have a gift for you." After saying that, Liu Xin behind him placed three bottles of perfume on the table.

Lan Xueyan looked at the three bottles in surprise: "I know this, it's a glass bottle, but what's in it?"

Shen Li picked up a bottle, uncorked it, and handed it to her: "This is the perfume I made. It has a similar use to the ointment, but it's more fragrant than the ointment. Try it."

Lan Xueyan took it under her nose and smelled it curiously: "It really is, it smells like peach, and it smells really good. How do you use it?"

"Pour out a little bit, and apply it on your skin like a balm. But you can also apply it on clothes. Then your clothes will smell good."
