The spacious and elegant living room is lit with spices, light and elegant, and the spices from the Western Regions can be worth a thousand gold through the skillful hands of the perfumer.

Cheng Yun is proficient in pharmacy, she has a very sensitive nose, and she also made spices when she was poor, and she is most familiar with the blending and running-in between spices. She even used cheap and cheap ingredients to make high-quality spices, and worked with a black shop for several years to sell low-quality spices with the same fragrance but volatile but quickly for profit.

Smelling the fragrance that filled the room, she smiled slightly.

There is also a perfumer in the ancestral house, adding some harmful things to the spices, so that ordinary people can't find the fragrance different. She didn't know who she had offended, and she had been subjected to this kind of calculation that was not on the table.

Cheng Yun followed the Shen family to the ancestral house, and it was only three days.

"Is this the spice sent by my aunt?" Cheng Yun remembered that the spice she used before lunch did not taste like this.

Lily nodded: "The maid Chunliu next to Mrs. Fang sent it, and the maid thought that this was the 'three-yuan incense' that the girl liked, so she lit it." ”

There were all kinds of rouge gouache on the dressing table, Cheng Yun smelled them one by one, took a few of them together, and threw them into the incense burner.

Using spices to frame her is tantamount to sending a chicken to assassinate a tiger.

Lily was shocked, no matter how dull she was, she knew that there was something wrong with this spice, and looked at Cheng Yun in a panic, she knelt down and did not defend herself.

Cheng Yun stretched out his hand to pull her up and smiled at her: "Next time, you have to learn some." You should go to the kitchen and bring a bowl of mung bean soup to drink, otherwise it will be enough for you. ”

Lily hurriedly went out, and called two little maids to come over and guard, and then went to the kitchen to drink mung bean soup with confidence.

Cheng Yun sat on the soft couch in front of the windowsill, looking at the well-trimmed lush grass and trees outside and the carved beams and paintings on the eaves, and suddenly thought of Dong Hanyue's cheap face.

A ridiculous thought rose in her heart—

If she marries Dong Hanyue, she doesn't need to worry about the accusations brought by her ageless face, and she doesn't need to become a queen cramped in a small back house, busy with her husband and children.

Dong Hanyue knew who she was, they were from the same plane, they knew each other, they had stood at the peak of the continent together, they were all immortal legends of that plane.

He could understand her.

But marrying such an old fox, she is bound to become a pawn in his hands. Even her parents, brothers, sisters, and relatives will be his bargaining chips in the world.

Thinking about the ruthlessness and viciousness of Dong Hanyue's previous life, Cheng Yun silently sank this unrealistic idea.

Although she is smart, she can't play with intrigue and trickery, but she can't play Donghanyue, who has been immersed in this way for many years.

Cheng Yun glanced at the incense burner, and had a faint headache.

The spices sent by the eldest aunt are actually problematic, and they are still the hands of Chunliu himself, and the person who takes them over is also a lily who can be trusted. Which of these can go wrong?

Who would go to such great lengths to frame her, a cousin girl who came all the way from Bai Yujing?

This added three-element incense is not an ordinary ingredient, and if you smell too much, you will be dizzy and even lose your hair. In this ancient and backward plane, the woman's hair fell out, and she could only become a nun in the end.

Such a vicious mind.

Cheng Yun sat quietly in the room, closed his eyes slightly, and began to think about the whole thing.

She likes to do research, thinks carefully and carefully, and has some use for intrigues, peeling back the layers of cocoons, and always finds the key line.

Almond walked in quietly, saw Cheng Yun who was sitting quietly, glanced at the two little maids, and they went out lightly and closed the door by the way.

Cheng Yun opened his eyes, took the white porcelain cup of Xingyao handed over by Almond, and took a sip of the tea soup with clear color: "It's that you have talent in the tea ceremony, and this tea is brewed just right." She lowered her eyes to the small teacup and asked lightly, "Have you ever found out?"

Almond nodded, "Yes." ”

She stepped forward and whispered in Cheng Yun's ear about what she had discovered.

After finishing speaking, Almond stepped back, she cautiously glanced at Cheng Yun's face, and quickly lowered her head.

Lily made such a big mistake that she didn't even know how to intercede for Lily.

"You don't have to worry about lilies. As if seeing through Almond's thoughts, Cheng Yun smiled on his face, "After all, no one would have thought that there would be a problem with the spices handled by the eldest aunt, and the taste of the spices is too difficult to distinguish." ”

Almond quietly breathed a sigh of relief, she straightened her spine, and asked, "Do you want the maid to check more carefully?"

"No need. We're not the masters here after all, and it's not good to do too much. Cheng Yun said, "Don't tell my mother about this, do you know?"

"Yes. ”

Cheng Yun slowly sipped the tea, and after half an hour, she got up and took a book and was about to lie down on the soft couch.

Xie Jing walked in, he pulled Cheng Yun's sleeve with great energy, and said happily: "Second sister and second sister, my mother said to take us to Jinling City to play!"

Cheng Yun looked at his maid, and the little girl nodded hurriedly.

Cheng Yun got up, and the maids knocked Xie Jing out with a smile, and stepped forward to wait for Cheng Yun to change clothes and make up.

Two quarters of an hour later, the Shen family's carriage had driven out of the Shen family's ancestral house with the two children and headed for the Jinling City.

Jinling, formerly known as Jiankang, was originally the ancient capital of the former dynasty, but later because of Beidi going south, it looted and plundered, and the prosperous imperial capital was devastated. Hundreds of years have passed now, and although Jinling has not seen the war of the past, it has also declined. Compared to other places in the south of the Yangtze River, such as Yangzhou, it is far inferior.

The Shen family didn't buy any valuables, but only purchased some clay instruments slightly, and returned to the ancestral house.

Xie Jing was disappointed: "It's not as good as Bai Yujing here!"

Shen comforted him: "We will come back next year, and then my mother will take you to Yangzhou to play." ”

Cheng Yun didn't make a sound all the way, but she didn't say much on weekdays, so Shen just looked at her and didn't ask her anything.

My daughter is also older, and it doesn't hurt if I don't tell my mother about some things on my mind.

Shen believes in her daughter very much, Cheng Yun has always been calm, thinks twice about everything, and never lets her worry too much.

In fact, this is also true.

The oil wall car was walking, and Cheng Yun suddenly asked, "Mother, when will we go back to Kyoto?"

Shen Shi looked at her and said gently: "I'll go back soon, in a few days." We can't afford to spend the Midyear Festival on the road. ”

Cheng Yun nodded: "That's very good." ”

Two days is enough time for her to lay out, enough for her to return a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye.

Cheng Yun is not a good stubble, otherwise he would not have been on the throne of the continent's number one villain in his previous life.

Shen Shi felt that something was wrong with his daughter, and his eyes looked at the two second-class girls behind her, and Almond and Bai lowered their heads, but they avoided it.

She looked at her daughter again, but her daughter's face was calm, and she couldn't see that she would have something to hide in her heart, so Shen put her mind at ease, but still kept an eye on Ah Ning to pay attention to the movements of almonds and lilies.

Xie Jing looked at his mother and second sister strangely, and couldn't figure out what kind of dumb riddle they were playing, so he played with toys by himself.

Back at the Shen family's ancestral house, there was still an hour before dinner.

Cheng Yun took two maids to walk in the flower garden of the ancestral house, although it was autumn, there were many chrysanthemums of different varieties in the flower garden, as well as some precious flowers out of season. The flower garden layout of the ancestral house is not the same as the exquisite and small garden in the south of the Yangtze River, and compared with the South Garden of the British Mansion, it is more like a garden in the north, majestic and elegant.

There was a smile from the front, and Almond breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced at Lily, both of whom saw the joy in each other's eyes.

The girls were not harsh masters, they didn't even scold them, and they treated them very well. But Madame may not, if something happens to the girl, Madame will definitely deal with them severely.

Cheng Yun heard the coquettish voice of the girl in front of her, a dark light flashed in her eyes, and she walked over with the maid.

My grandmother was looking at a pear blossom snow raised in a greenhouse, this peony is a precious variety, and the condition is very beautiful, and only the top gate valve is willing to put it in the autumn wind.

The delicate girl was wearing a Teochew silk dress embroidered with birds, and she was holding her grandmother's hand and talking to her.

"Maternal grandmother. Cheng Yun calmly greeted the old lady,

Grandmother didn't seem to hear her voice, she still stared blankly at the pear blossom snow, her face was wide and wide, and the delicate girl was talking to her, and she only nodded occasionally or answered.

The delicate girl also heard Cheng Yun's voice of greeting, she glanced sideways at Cheng Yun, with smugness and contempt, she was still talking to her grandmother: "Grandmother ......"

Cheng Yun was not annoyed, she stood up straight and watched quietly for a while.

My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's disease, and her internal organs failed, and she couldn't survive for long.

As for the delicate girl, it is just a small person, and Cheng Yun is too lazy to bother with her.

The big girl beside her grandmother was a little blind, and she tugged at the delicate girl lightly, and said in a low voice: "Thirteen girls." ”

The delicate girl snorted lightly and said to her grandmother, "Grandmother, grandmother, your granddaughter greets you." ”

Grandmother's expression was still the same, but her eyes rolled, her eyes finally moved away from the pear blossom snow, and turned to look at the place where Cheng Yun was standing, but her eyes were wooden: "Yin ......"

Cheng Yun's heart trembled slightly, she thought of her mother Shen, and her mother hoped that her grandmother would be in good health......

After all, this is her mother's mother, and turning a blind eye to her mother is because of Alzheimer's disease, not her intention.

She glanced at the delicate girl, who turned his face sideways, arrogant and contemptuous.

Cheng Yun smiled in her heart, this girl is like Xie Huan, her heart is not bad.

She stepped forward and showed a gentle smile that she would only have when facing her younger brother: "Grandmother, I'm Ah Yun." Yun, did you hear that?"

As she spoke, she took her grandmother's hand, which was thin and covered with age spots, like a ghost's claw and a withered branch, and it was so cold that she could barely feel the temperature of the human body.

"Tone ...... Sister. Grandmother's hand tightened, she held Cheng Yun's little hand, her face was expressionless, and her eyes were dull and murmured, "Jiexi...... Jiexi ......"

Jiexi is the name of the Shen family.

Cheng Yun only felt a twitch in her heart, she took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "How long has my grandmother been like this?"

The big girl who pulled the sleeve of the delicate girl just now said, "It's been half a year." ”

Minor Half Year...... Not a big problem.

Cheng Yun felt a little relieved, she made up her mind to let her grandmother regain her senses, so she raised her head and asked the big girl: "Is there a pavilion nearby?" I want to help my grandmother sit down. ”

"This ......" the big girl hesitated, she looked at the delicate girl, but she didn't dare to call the shots.

Cheng Yun looked sideways at the delicate girl: "Cousin, my grandmother has been standing here for so long, let her sit and rest for a while." ”

The delicate girl's eyes were wary.

Are you going to compete with me for my grandmother's favor?

She glared at Cheng Yun, and said this in her eyes.

Cheng Yun smiled in his heart and turned his head sideways.

"Huh," the grandmother suddenly spoke, she looked at Cheng Yun, her eyes showed a little confusion, "Which child are you?"

Cheng Yun showed her a well-behaved and cute smile: "I am Jiexi's child, Ah Yun." ”

"When did Jiexi have a baby?" her grandmother murmured, her eyes gradually cleared, and she even gently touched Cheng Yun's bud, "Ah Yun is so big." ”

looked at the delicate girl again: "Jiexi, you are still so unstable even after you are married." ”

But he still mistook the glamorous girl for the Shen family.

The delicate girl opened her mouth, looked at her grandmother and asked Cheng Yun gently and lovingly, thinking of the identity of this little girl, she was silent.

She is from Bai Yujing, and she is approaching the Midyear Festival, how can she live here for a long time?

I'm confused.

Cheng Yun accompanied her grandmother in the pavilion and talked for half an hour, until the maids came to say that it was time for them to have dinner. Then he took his grandmother out of the pavilion and went to Huazhi Garden for dinner.

In the hall, several of Cheng Yun's uncles and cousins looked at their grandmother and Cheng Yunyan in amazement, and came up to say hello one by one. My grandmother responded to them one by one, her demeanor and movements were the same as before the onset of the disease, and her face was much softer and kinder.

But she still couldn't remember Shen.

Cheng Yun's face was a little pale, she accompanied her grandmother to dinner, and then returned to the room with the support of the maid, and fell asleep without even reading after bathing.

Although the power of the soul is magical, it is still more difficult to alleviate the nearly exhausted internal organs in other people's bodies.

Even if Cheng Yun has a soul that is more powerful than a legendary mage, she is not a god.

Next.

Cheng Yun could feel that the smile on Shen's face had increased a lot, and the wisp of sorrow between her eyebrows faded away, she happily squatted down and hugged Cheng Yun, and said in a low voice: "Ah Yun, Ah Yun, I'm so happy!"

Cheng Yun glanced at the smiling maids, and they immediately dispersed, leaving the quiet space for the two mothers and daughters.

"Mother. She touched Shen's soft bun and felt soft in her heart.

Close relatives.

This is a word that the lonely legendary mage of the previous life could not experience, so she can ignore all the family affection in the world.

But in this life, she has a gentle mother and a loving father.

The warmth of family affection melted the cold heart and liver of the legendary mage.

"Your grandmother is finally well!" Shen's tears flowed, and she hugged her daughter and cried silently, "I'm so happy." ”

Cheng Yun hugged Shen and comforted her in his own way.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Shen wiped away her tears, and returned to her usual solemn and calm appearance of Mrs. Qianyuanhou, if it weren't for her walnut-like eyes, no one would know that she had just cried.
