e night view was so stunning, she hurriedly applied some rouge to cover the darkness, only then did she prevent her daughter from being hit by a chair.But the Sixth Prince's fury was uncontrollable, h...Ye Qingmei nodded, "Don't worry, Yan'er, I understand."
Efficacy is the most important factor, while color and shape are used for people to choose based on their preferences. I understand this. 。
Right now, we're just practicing. Once we start selling these in a shop, everything else will be fine. The problem is finding a container like this.
"And some containers themselves are very expensive, like this one made of glass. How could you possibly take it to the outer city to sell Who could afford it"Night Wenyan then told her, "This kind of glass container isn't for selling. It's used to be kept in the shop as a prized possession." 。But these glass cups are not heavy enough now. I will ask Quán Qīngchéng to find some more beautiful and valuable ones in the palace later. 。“ Yè Qīngméi listened and laughed, “Yán’er, how do I feel that the Emperor lets you use you just like a little maid” Yè Wēn yàn denied it, “No no, I still treat that little brat as the Emperor's……” 。" What is this little brat trying to say I'm a year older than you. 。But then again, thinking about the current status of this fourth sister, she is the future empress, an equal to His Majesty the Emperor. How could the Emperor be considered a junior to her 。Ye Wen continued to speak of her incense plan: “This is something quite novel for people, so even though our shop is located in the outer city, I’m sure many wealthy families from the inner city will come to purchase it.” 。Outsiders prioritize functionality more, while insiders value both functionality and aesthetics. 。So when choosing containers, we can also choose some more expensive ones to satisfy this part of the population. 。For example, this kind of glass cup, people from the outer city can't afford it, but even those in the inner city are willing to buy it. 。She mumbled as she checked the already cooled candles, sniffed them, and then lit one. 。Ye Qingmei gazed at the candle burning in an arc-shaped container, its fragrance subtly filling the air. In just a short while, she felt the weariness of the day melt away. She even considered staying up all night to make another batch. 。I couldn't help but lower my head to look at the small print outside the container, eliminating fatigue and restoring energy. 。She thought it was really amazing! “I never thought candles could be burned in containers before, and I didn't know they could be made into other shapes either. Today I've learned so much!” 。"And those effects you mentioned, Yuer, aren't they just about the same as the medicinal wine sold at the clinic" Ye Wenyan shook her head. "There's still a big difference." 。Medicinal wine can to some extent treat illnesses, but this kind of aromatherapy candle is just a supplementary role. It's definitely much better than not using it, but if you really want to use it to treat diseases, it's not very likely. 。"That's pretty good too, at least those ladies would like this kind of thing. It's not only nice to use themselves, but it's also a face-saving gift to give away." 。"Yè Qīngméi's mind was racing, "So when we choose containers, we must consider aesthetics, even painting some patterns for someone to fire." 。Some artisans would carve their names or marks onto the things they made. We can also follow suit. 。" She kept thinking as she spoke, then asked Ye Wen: “A scent shop needs a name. If it's opened next to a jewelry shop on the outskirts of the city, why not call it Xuanmai” 。With Xuan脈 jewelry and Xuan脈 aromatherapy, you can always add "Xuan脈" to the beginning of whatever you do in the future. 。Although I don't know what Xuanmai means, Yanei, since you used these two words, there must be your own considerations. I understand all of that. 。"
Ye Wendian nodded, "Thank you sister for understanding, I do have my considerations" 。Of course, all of that is just talk for later. Right now, we should focus on practicing this skill well. Chu Lian has been busy brewing wine these past few days, and when she's done with that, she can come over and learn with us too. 。Then the two of you shouldn't take on everything yourselves, that way you'll get tired and be tied down. 。This skill is not too out of the ordinary to pass on. If you are really worried, just buy a few dead maidservants and teach them the skills. You only need to look at the quality. 。"Night Qingmei felt this plan was feasible, “Let’s do it as you said.” 。Those maidservants who were bought back also enjoyed a good life. Firstly, they had proper work to do, which was much better than serving people, and they even received silver. It was truly a blessing for whoever was chosen. 。" Remember this, whether it's this time or any time in the future, we need to be careful when hiring people. We can hire someone who isn't very skilled and teach them slowly, but their character must come first. " 。But if you think someone is malicious, you must immediately let her leave. Don't show any mercy, understand"Ye Qingmei nodded, "Don't worry, I understand." 。These days, my brother has also been looking for candidates. The clinic is short-staffed, so when I get back, I'll have him help me choose a few as well. I'll go in person to meet them, and I absolutely won't let anyone with bad intentions get in. 。The General's Mansion hasn't been idle these past few days with its civil engineering projects. Ye Wen's courtyard is being expanded, and the easternmost wall of the courtyard is also undergoing renovations. 。Ye Wen pointed to a place where someone had opened a moon gate, directly connecting to the neighboring mansion. It was simply for Ye Chu Lian's convenience in going back and forth to make wine. 。For the past few days, Ye Chuchen has been busy next door. The General's Mansion sent a lot of servants to help, and the Prince Rong's Mansion also lent a hand. Even Chi Hongfang heard that they were short-staffed and dispatched some people over. 。This girl Ye Chu Lian, don't look at her young age, and don't look at how she's been putting on that weak and pitiful act for so many years, but in reality, she's actually a very determined girl. 。Especially when it comes to doing what she likes and is good at, everything is arranged in an orderly manner, even the layout of each courtyard in the mansion is well-planned in her mind. 。Ye Wen had something to say. This mansion would be like a workshop, half for brewing wine and half for making incense. 。Since the mansion was so large, Ye Chulian simply divided it in two. She used the cool, shady area on the west side to brew wine, and kept the east side for making incense. 。The main hall was reserved for receiving guests, and several courtyards were also prepared as guest rooms. 。The entire mansion has been under renovation these days, with Ye Chulian making all the decisions. Ye Wenyan just took advantage of people's unpreparedness to throw some spirit-infused petals into a few wells. The well water became even more fragrant, and the wine brewed from it tasted better than before. 。Ye Chulian blurted out that this was simply a fairy dwelling for brewing wine, and she decisively packed all her belongings here. She wouldn't be staying at the First Rank General's Mansion anymore. 。Even she had made plans to bring her second brother over, after all they were not the Ye family's children. Before knowing this, it didn't matter, but after finding out, living together just felt wrong. 。 This idea was known to the Third Prince, who advised her: "If you say that it's convenient to brew wine here, then I won't persuade you. But your second brother can't move..." 。Although Fourth Miss is now the Empress, outwardly people support her and fear her. But in reality, many more people hope for her misfortune, even her death. 。Because for over four hundred years, no one has been able to get close to the Emperor's Throne, the Emperor has always been high above. No one can reach him, so everyone is equal. 。Now that Miss Four suddenly appeared, she pulled this lofty god down into the bustling world of mortals. 。The one who couldn't get anyone suddenly got them, then she became an outlier, everyone hated her. 。"So we must keep your second brother at home to protect you at all times!"
Ye Chulian understood, so she didn't mention letting Ye Fei Zhou move out again. She even thought that she should also move back, that way everyone would be together, and it would be easier for the second brother to protect them all.
One after another, it's easy to spread oneself thin. If someone with ill intentions can't get to her fourth sister directly, they could attack from the side and harm her. The fourth sister would definitely be worried. 。Over these past few months, Ye Chu Lian has already gotten to know her fourth elder sister's personality very well. 。Although she may appear carefree, in reality, she values her family and each member deeply. 。She was just a concubine's daughter, and even her status as a concubine was illegitimate. But the fourth elder sister had never looked down on her. 。Since the day she declared to stand with the Fourth Sister, the Fourth Sister has been protecting and helping her. 。So she herself also has to work hard and not cause trouble for the fourth elder sister. 。In the next few days, I'll have this estate tidied up and will definitely move back to the General's Residence to live. Then, I'll be able to stay by Fourth Sister's side. 。Everyone was busy, so Old Madam's watching the opera thing was left to Xiang Dong and Ali. 。Ye Qingmei's maid, Rui Zhu, followed along to learn how to make scented candles. Zhuai Er darted back and forth, taking a peek at the candle-making side one moment, then running to see if Ye Chu Lian needed help the next. She was also keeping a close eye on the expansion project in Ye Wenyan's courtyard. The little maid felt like she was busier than the steward. 。
Zhou Cheng, the steward of Ye Mansion, has been working with unprecedented responsibility these days. Ever since he was brought under Lian Shi's wing last time, he felt that all those years before were a waste. He realized that he had so much potential that had never been tapped, and that he could do so much more, becoming a more useful person.
Over these past few days, he truly tied his own fate to the First Rank General's Residence, especially to Ye Wenyan. He prioritized Ye Wenyan in everything he did, considering whether each action would benefit or harm Miss Four. 。He even became acquainted with Chi Hongfang, who came to pay his respects every day. At noon, he kept Chi Hongfang for a meal and took the opportunity to learn from him how to make Fourth Miss more satisfied and how to be of greater help to her. 。Chi Hongfang said to him, "First of all, you must get your heart right. Ask yourself if you truly support the Fourth Miss. Only after getting a definite answer can you be considered a true member." 。Let me tell you this, if the Emperor is heaven itself, then the Empress is heaven above heaven. 。Everyone listened to the Emperor, but the Emperor listened to the Empress. 。"Do you understand this relationship"
Zhou Cheng thought for a moment and nodded, "It means being afraid of the daughter-in-law!"
"That's right!" Chi Hong slapped his thigh, "That's exactly what it means!"
So you just need to understand how to serve the Empress and Imperial Concubines, then the Emperor will naturally look upon you favorably. 。Then we go back to what I told you at the beginning, which is that you must be sincere. You can't just be nice to the Empress Dowager to curry favor with her; you have to genuinely care for her. 。Even if she's no longer Empress one day, and even if she has a falling out with the Divine Emperor, you must be willing to risk angering the Divine Emperor and firmly stand by Empress' side. 。"
>lady's favoritism was also a way of keeping her in check. 。Because she knew too much, the old woman never let her out of her sight until her death. 。She couldn't escape either, following this old wom...
