Chapter 107: Thoughts

Yan Shaoting wanted to say: "There is no good one, how can I choose?"

Old Madam Yan's chest ached from anger.

I don't know if the angry son gave him his face in front of the maid mother-in-law, or was angry that the matchmaker who made the silver sincerely practiced her dignified Mrs. Houfu.

In short, she is angry now, very angry.

Looking at the old lady's black face, Yan Shaoting smiled and beckoned his subordinates to prepare dinner, and sent someone to the Hou Mansion to invite the old ancestor.

It's just that the ancestor was used to being quiet alone, and he didn't want to run around, so he didn't come.

Yan Shaoting pursed his lips, didn't speak, ran around a fart, a long distance, and was carried by someone when he went out, and he didn't want to come.

Anyway, now that he is an unwieldy eldest grandson in front of his grandmother, he will not deliberately please others, so let her go.

During the meal, Mrs. Yan was still thinking about talking about her relatives, Yan Shaoting was a little impatient, her face was gloomy, and then she said: "Mother, I said that you don't have to worry about it, I promised you, I won't break my promise." ”

It was rare for Mrs. Yan to see her son reply so seriously, and after thinking about it carefully, she forgot about his character, so she only shut up and gave him a two-month deadline.

Two months.

Yan Shaoting thought about it, it is true that the matter will not be resolved for two months, or it will be delayed until a year later.

It seems that it is time to hurry.

After eating, Mrs. Yan chatted with her for a while, which was nothing more than how unfilial her son had been and how sad she had been over the years.

"I think of a girl, and it's very pleasant. ”

Then the conversation changed, and suddenly talked about the day when the queen summoned the merchant girl Mu Tianxiang into the palace to celebrate the birthday of the two princesses, and Mrs. Yan was favored by the protector when she was young, and she was also active like a girl for a few years, and she was very strange about those strange things. is also very fond of it, which is why every time she can come up with something good to make the two little princesses happy.

Speaking of Mu Tianxiang, Old Madam Yan obviously had a strange expression, and sighed: "Thinking that the girl is only fifteen or sixteen years old, it is a good fate to have to bear the fate of a large family by herself." Now it seems that the queen has some interest in her, and with this relationship to support, she must not be too sad to live alone in the house. ”

"Who did my mother say?" Yan Shaoting lowered her eyes and asked curiously, it was rare to see her caring for other people's girls.

Old Madam Yan glanced at Yan Shaoting in a daze, and then sighed: "Although you have just returned to Licheng, you must have heard about Mufu, that is, the new owner of Mu's Xiangfang who lives on spices, Mu Tianxiang." ”

I saw that my son was listening to me. Old Madam Yan immediately became interested: "Speaking of which, this Miss Mu still has some connections with our house." ”

Yan Shaoting pretended to be surprised.

"If you want to say that Mu Wanqiu, the former boss of Mu's Xiangfang, almost became a concubine with me. Old Madam Yan thought of what happened many years ago, and she was a little embarrassed.

"You mean, which one is the second uncle?" Yan Shaoting suddenly paused while holding the chopsticks.

Old Madam Yan was suddenly stunned for a moment, and said that she was too talkative, and said something that should not be said, and immediately changed the topic with a smile: "Look at what I am doing with this." It's getting boring and boring. ”

Yan Shaoting smiled silently and let her change the topic. Looking at her attitude towards Mu Tianxiang, it doesn't seem to be very bad.

The mother and son don't talk much, most of them are Mrs. Yan talking alone, and Yan Shaoting is listening.

Until someone came to tell him, and there was a guest in the house.

Old Madam Yan didn't know about the so-called distinguished guest, but Yan Shaoting heard it. I knew who it was, and glanced at Mrs. Yan.

"Go ahead. I, Mama Xu, just accompany me to eat. ”

In addition to family affairs, Mrs. Yan didn't seem to ask about her son's affairs.

Yan Shaoting left the house and went to the study.

The so-called distinguished guests. When I was old, I was led to the study, and at this time I was leaning on the couch cross-legged, throwing peanuts and eating and playing.

Yan Shaoting walked to the desk and sat down, not looking at the person, at least speaking lightly, with alienation in his tone: "You always come so blatantly, it's not good after all, the one above is like a mirror in his heart." ”

"Anyway, he can see it clearly whether he comes or not, so what's the matter. That person is the current second prince who ordered Jingling, he changed his posture and continued to throw peanuts to eat.

Yan Shaoting frowned, and there was a lot of resistance to his behavior. For a while, he couldn't grasp his mind of playing cards according to reason at all.

Thinking that the news of his return was also revealed by him, Yan Shaoting became more suspicious of him.

If he didn't say anything else, just said that his status as the second prince was noble, Yan Shaoting felt a headache, probably forbearance, and his tone was a little unkind when facing him: "What are you doing this time?" I remember that the Holy Lord has banned your feet!"

"Alas, there is no way, who let the queen mother be merciful, and can't see that I am trapped in the palace and lonely, so I begged my father to let me out, what, the queen just said a word, and he was exempted from three months of grounding. Jingling smiled self-deprecatingly.

Yan Shaoting looked at his expression a little helplessly, and said: "She is the queen and your queen mother, and it is also the love to intercede for you, so why should you ......?"

Recalling what happened at the beginning, Yan Shaoting always felt that Jingling hated his biological mother as a bit unreasonable.

At that time, Jingling was only sixteen or seventeen years old, which was the age of impulsiveness, because he was dissatisfied with the traitors who framed Dongliang to die in vain, and accidentally had a dispute with the saint, and spoke disrespectfully to the queen who persuaded him, and even caused the queen to have a miscarriage and could no longer have children, so he angered Shengyan, and was immediately kicked out of the palace, and he was not allowed to step into Licheng half a step without being summoned.

Jingling thought that with the emperor's temper, within three days, when the anger was gone, he would be able to summon him back to the palace, but he didn't expect that this would be more than eight years, and he felt that if it wasn't for the queen chewing the root of his tongue by the side of the saint, he would not have ended up in such a sad state.

can't go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, but only succumb to a small city that has no name, and spend these eight times depressed, which is the biggest pain in Jingling.

At this time, Jingling didn't see how painful it was, as if he was not a very serious gentleman, he glanced at Yan Shaoting and said: "Since you have returned to Licheng, take advantage of this month's time to take care of all the things you want to do, and then go to the big things with me!"

Yan Shaoting raised his eyebrows, his so-called big things were things he didn't want to do a long time ago.

Jingling really still yearns for leading troops to fight, but he never wants to jump into the mud again.

Clenched his fists, if he listened to the secret gritted teeth.

Jingling didn't know what he thought, the battle of the border eight years ago had greatly damaged the vitality of all of them.

The sun can shine into the house, Mu Tianxiang looked at the shop opposite against the light, because of the low price, and the fresh things from overseas in the shop, it really attracted a large number of people. So at this time, the situation of Mu's Xiangfang is a little depressed compared with the Lin family's shop.

She felt very bored for the past two days.

The shop's business can't be said to be bad recently, but it's not as busy as it used to be. If it goes on like this, the prospects of Mu's Xiangfang are not optimistic, their Mu's shop is connected, and it will affect the whole body, as long as there is a shop that is useless, there will be some chain reaction when it turns back, but I am afraid that there will be no way to return to heaven at that time.

Mu Tianxiang squinted slightly, and her mind was turning.

Looks like she's going to need to come up with a plan.

"Miss, you've been staring at it all morning, aren't you tired?" Yu Jin finally called Mu Tianxiang, the eldest lady wouldn't think that if she stared at it like this, the shop opposite would be stared at, right?

Of course, this is just a question in her heart, and she definitely doesn't dare to ask. I had to refill a cup of tea for Mu Tianxiang.

Mu Tianxiang sighed, feeling that Yu Jin reminded him at the right time, he was staring here all morning, it was a waste of time, and it was better to communicate with Shopkeeper Pei or Master Liu to see if there was a way to break this cold situation.

New incense is essential, but what kind of incense do you need to attract people?

Mu Tianxiang found that she had some tightness in her chest, which should be because she was nervous and anxious, so she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and decided to find someone to help her, otherwise she alone would probably add to her troubles.

Shopkeeper Pei, Master Liu, Master Zhai, Master Zhao and Master Xiao Zhang, these people in the shop she can ask for help from, now it seems that there are only these.

It can be said that the shopkeeper Pei said today that he heard that there was a draft on the hill of Linxian County, and the aroma could be smelled within ten steps, so he went to Linxian with Master Zhang in the shop early this morning.

As for Master Zhao, he originally heard that there was a strange grass, so he couldn't hold it back and wanted to grab it, but after all, he was old, and he heard that the grass was growing halfway up the mountain.

As for Master Xiao Zhao, I don't know what the reason is, I have been a little absent-minded recently, but Master Zhai has been immersed in the perfume room, and I don't know if I can make things.

Mu Tianxiang suddenly remembered the treasures left by her mother, and she was beckoning to herself, and it was useless for a long time, and she was afraid that she would be rusty.

This is also to blame myself, since the end of the Yuxiang matter, there is really little contact with the matter of spices.

She didn't know she was fit to be so lazy. calculates every day how to win other people's shops, but throws aside the most important factor.

No fragrance, how to win others.

"Yujin Luzhu, clean up, I'm going home. Mu Tianxiang made up her mind to go back and study the method of perfumery, and strive to get those new fragrances out as soon as possible.

I'm afraid I won't be able to see the shopkeeper Pei today, although the distance to Linxian is not mentioned, but the strange grass is still on the mountain, the mountain road is rugged, I'm afraid there is not a day, and I can't come back.

So if you want to see the strange fragrance, you can also wait until the evening or early tomorrow morning. (To be continued......)
