Chapter 25 Perfumery
In the blink of an eye, on the morning of the sixth day, there was finally news.
But Han Zonghao came alone.
Du Rongzhi hurriedly asked people to invite him to the side hall to speak.
Han Zonghao wore a rain-soaked robe today, looking clean, refreshing, and very handsome. Although the young man tried his best to restrain himself, his face still showed a little complacency.
He saluted Du Rongzhi respectfully, and said loudly, "Young lady, the things you ordered last time, the little ones have already inquired clearly. β
Du Rongzhi unconsciously straightened her body.
"Zhao Tong did go to the north corner earlier and bought a batch of flowers and plants...... Because of the scarcity of things, the sales of these flowers and plants are very good, especially the golden silk snow is the most - except for the six pots sent to Du Mansion, the rest were quickly sold out, and the small ones have also been checked, and they have all entered the mansions of those famous nobles, and there is nothing abnormal. He paused and continued, "But more than half a month ago, Zhao Tong bought more than ten pots of golden silk snow from the merchants of the northern corner at a high price, and this batch of goods was not sold in the shop, but all of them were shipped to the Zhao family. β
Du Rongzhi raised her eyebrows.
Merchants are the most profitable, and the exotic flowers and plants that they have bought back with great difficulty are not sold but kept for their own use...... She couldn't think of any other reason than the possibility of making a bigger profit.
"But the little neighbor's daughter is the maidservant who serves the lady of the Zhao family, according to her, it was the lady of the Zhao family who took the golden silk snow to spice up - her ancestors were in the spice business." Han Zonghao said and secretly glanced at Du Rongzhi, although there was a double-sided embroidered screen, but the girl could still be vaguely seen stroking the jade bracelet on her wrist with her half-hanging eyes, and his expression was narrow, "It's just that this thing is also a little weird...... First, the spices made of such precious flowers and plants must also be worth a lot of money, and it is impossible to keep them for private use according to the financial resources of the Zhao family, but no matter how small they inquire, they can never find out where these spices go, and they are unheard of on the market; Second, although the little ones have heard of the spices that use flowers and flowers, they have never heard of anyone who can even use rhizomes. β
Du Rongzhi finally raised her head.
Han Zonghao was unguarded Du Rongzhi suddenly looked at him, his face was slightly hot with his eyes facing each other, and he hurriedly lowered his head and took out a bag of things from his sleeve, "I think that since this thing is so strange, Xu is exactly what the young lady wants to find, so I asked the little sister next door...... Quietly took a piece from Zhao Niangzi. β
Qinghe saw Du Rongzhi nodding at him, so he took the small bag of things from Han Zonghao's hand, walked around the screen to Du Rongzhi, opened it carefully, and presented it.
Du Rongzhi took a look, and saw that there were hibiscus flowers embroidered on the handkerchief of the fragrant cake, and at first glance, it was owned by the girl, and when she looked up, she saw the young man clenching his fists crampedly, and said in her heart that it would take some trouble to get this thing......
So I took it to my nose and sniffed it, and I could faintly smell a faint jasmine fragrance, which was the same as the fragrance that Aunt Zhao often had......
Du Rongzhi asked Qinghe to take a little and light it in the incense burner.
After a while, light smoke rose from the furnace, and the sweet jasmine fragrance was faintly mixed with a hint of elegance......
Du Rongzhi smiled slightly, "You did a good job this time." β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Du Rongzhi asked Qinghe to take Han Zonghao down to receive the reward.
"Mama......" Du Rongzhi pondered for a moment, "What is my brother Zeng busy with these days?" β
is talking about Mama An's son, Du Rongzhi's brother An Yanzeng.
Mama An was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "At home." I just came back from Suzhou a few years ago, and my lord allowed him to take two days off......"
Du Rongzhi smiled, "I have to add my brother to help me." β
"What are you talking about, young lady," Mama An said solemnly, "If you have any matter, just tell him." β
@@@@@@@@
Du Rongzhi sat quietly in the room drinking tea, and Mama An stood uneasily, looking at the hourglass from time to time.
Half an hour, right......
I was thinking wildly, but I saw my son walk in from outside with a calm face.
Mama An chuckled in her heart, and before Du Rongzhi could speak, she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" β
An Yanzeng saluted Du Rongzhi, "The dog only stayed in the house for a cup of tea, and then fell to the ground and convulsed all over......"
Mama An unconsciously took a step back, and turned her head to look at Du Rongzhi a little helplessly.
Du Rongzhi took a deep breath, and the knuckles of the hand holding the teacup turned white. "How's it now, can it be saved?"
"Young lady rest assured, the doctor's treatment is very timely, and there is no major problem now-" An Yanzeng paused, "It's just that this incense is also vicious, especially for pregnant people, and it is very poisonous to pregnant people. β
Du Rongzhi sneered, "Brother is wrong, it's not spices that are poisonousβ"
An Yanzeng was stunned for a moment, but listened to Du Rongzhi's deep voice, "This incense is mixed with the essence of the rhizome of Jinsi Xue, which is originally not harmful to the human body, but the bad thing is that I asked people to put a pot of Jinsi Snow in the house before, and once the two aromas are fused, it becomes a poison that kills people without seeing blood." β
An Yanzeng looked at Du Rongzhi in some surprise, "There is such a thing?" Small ones are really unheard of. I couldn't help but be convinced, "It's also thanks to the young lady who is well-informed and has seen through Aunt Zhao's tricks." β
Du Rongzhi's heart sank, and she waved her hand and said, "Where do I know this, I also overheard such a rumor from the gardener in the house...... I met Aunt Zhao in my mother's room that day, so I fell in love. β
An Yanzeng didn't doubt him, and nodded thoughtfully, "This is the restoration of Skynet." β
"I still need to trouble my brother to run errands for me again."
"The young lady commands."
"I will repair a book, and my brother must give this letter to my father along with the rest of the spices." Du Rongzhi paused, "In addition, I also asked my brother to bring the doctor over with me to witness today's events." β
An Yanzeng arched his hand, "Don't worry, young lady, the little one understands." β
"Yes, yes, yes!" Mama An finally came back to her senses from the shock just now, "This matter can't be delayed for a moment!" As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief hatefully, and scolded, "This black-hearted and rotten slut! Madame treats her so generously, and treats her uncle as her own, this slut is still greedy enough, and dares to harm Madame and the unborn young master! You go, you hurry up! I must ask the master to seek justice for our wife! β

Say two things.
First, I applied for the Qingyun List on Tuesday...... Eh, people who often read books at the starting point should know this list, right? It is a list that does not rely on editorial arrangements, needs to apply by yourself, as long as it is reviewed in the background and passed, it can be on the list. Actually, I didn't plan to do it so early, because according to the experience of the first two books, I usually have to be rejected 1 or 2 times each time before I succeed, and I should have 7 or 80,000 words by then, which is just right, so I applied.
However, I guessed the beginning, but not the ending...... This time, I actually got through it!
So, in order to celebrate being on the green list, I will ...... tomorrow Double watch.
Still 10 o'clock, more two chapters.
The second thing, the reason why I was late today is because I was working overtime, and I couldn't take a break from that time. This is my second weekend of the month (if you don't count the weekend on my business trip), and then the next weekend...... And now I have a bad cold, and I'm not in a good mood. It felt like only the little angel's comments could soothe my grumpy heart.
Finally, thank you for the little girl's little life every day for commenting, quack.
