My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 74 How did you know?

Xiao Hong said, "My brother is disobedient, so mother asked Xiao Hong to help take care of him. Madam wants Xiao Hong to help persuade Master Cheng and Miss Yu."

Qin Yuan nodded.

The meaning is not bad.

"Then do you know what to advise them?"

Xiao Hong said, "The guests are not the hosts. Master Cheng and Miss Yu are guests after all. If things go wrong, both the host and the guests will lose face."

Qin Yuan was surprised and said, "I didn't expect you to think of this."

Xiao Hong was not modest and said crisply, "Thank you for the compliment, Madam. It's all because of Madam Rong's good teaching. Madam, if you think Xiao Hong is good, you can ask Xiao Hong to work in Wutong Garden."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Hongye and Cuiming couldn't help laughing.

Rong Mama smiled and said, "This child has been interested in Wutong Garden since he came with me. He always said that he wanted to come to Wutong Garden to serve the Marquis and his wife, and he was thinking of ways to show up."

Qin Yuan looked at the lovely little face and said, "Then you should listen to Madam Rong and think of a way to make Cheng Ge'er and Yu Jie'er understand the truth and not make things difficult for the Marquis."

Xiao Hong nodded and said, "Okay, Madam. Xiao Hong will remember it."

Rong Mama stood up and said, "It's time for me to go back. I still have to serve the old lady for dinner."

Qin Yuan didn't stay any longer.

With two more children in the upper room, the old lady is afraid that she will be too busy to handle it, and she really needs Rong Mama and Xiaohong to help.

Rong Mama took two steps and then remembered something. She said, "Madam's scent pills are very useful. When the old lady was doing her homework, I used some. The old lady thought it was very good and praised it several times."

Qin Yuan said, "I have quite a few more here, all made by myself. If you like them, just come and get them. Ma'am, please don't be polite with me."

As he said that, he asked Hongye to quickly get the incense pills.

Then he asked, "What kind of incense does the old lady like? Ranxiangju has a full range of incense. I have some family recipes that can be used to make some. If it's hot today and the old lady has a poor appetite or trouble sleeping, I can make the right incense for her."

When Rong Mama heard this, she immediately became interested and said quickly, "I didn't expect that Madam had such a talent. The old Madam has been worried about the Marquis these days. Not only do she sleep poorly at night, but she also suffers from the heat during the day and can't rest. If Madam has a corresponding prescription, you can try it."

After thinking for a while, he added: "The old lady likes the scent of lotus, plum, and Buddha's hand. They are just some daily incense. The old lady also likes these scents very much."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Then I'll give it a try and send it over when it's ready."

Rong Mama happily took Xiao Hong away. Hong Ye asked curiously, "Can the young lady make such a fragrance?"

Qin Yuan said: "You can try."

Hongye didn't care. Qin Yuan used to make perfumes when she was at home, but she was not well-off and didn't have any good spices, so she could only use some cheap and common spices. Now that she had Ranxiangju and the Marquis had spoken, she could make more perfumes.

Cui Ming asked, "Miss, have you read the medical book left by your aunt?"

Qin Yuan knew that she was very careful and didn't intend to hide it from them, so she said, "The medical books left by my aunt are all the family medicine of my grandfather. My grandfather was a doctor in the Imperial Hospital and had some experience in medical incense. I have read the symptoms of the old lady in a medical book and there is a prescription for her."

But I didn’t learn this in this life. I learned it because I became the prime minister’s wife in my previous life.

Qin Yuan thought to herself that many people might have the same symptoms as the old lady, so it would be better to prepare some perfume pills that suit the symptoms and consign them to Ranxiangju. Shopkeeper Leng is a master in perfume making and might be able to give some suggestions.

Cui Ming couldn't help but sigh, "Young lady is really kind and elegant. It would be enough if I could be even one tenth as good as her."

Hongye said: "I don't think so. We don't need so many smart people. It's enough to have one smart lady. I just need to be obedient."

Qin Yuan laughed. Although what he said was good, Hongye was not very obedient.

She said, "Are you obedient? You don't listen to what I say, and you don't listen to what the Marquis says either. I wonder whose words are you listening to?"

Hongye became anxious and tried to pull her apart.

Cui Ming chimed in, "The Marquis asked you to call her Madam, but you always called her Miss in front of him. Madam asked you to be careful with your words, but you always talked nonsense. What did you want to say in front of Madam Rong just now?"

Hongye: "..." Fortunately, the maid came in and said, "Madam, the duck soup in the small kitchen is ready. Shall we go to the main kitchen to serve the meal now?"

Qin Yuan nodded.

The maids went to the kitchen to get the food themselves.

Hongye said, "It's a pity that the Marquis can't eat the duck soup in the small kitchen."

Qin Yuan said: "How can he still let himself be wronged?"

As long as there is money, Lord Gu, a living person, will not be unable to find a place to eat.

Hongye said, "My Lord will go to the main camp tomorrow. If you want to drink duck soup, you have to wait until ten days later when you take your turn to rest. The small kitchen may not be able to cook duck soup by then."

Qin Yuan ignored her and said, "Why hasn't Manager Lin sent the letter yet? I don't know what the news from Gu Shiqi is. Their account books should be delivered by now."

Hongye asked: "Should we send someone to ask?"

Most of the maids who come as dowry have nothing to do, so it would be nice to let them go out for a run.

If those shopkeepers still don't obey, it's not impossible to replace them.

Qin Yuan said: "Wait a little longer."

Cui Ming felt that Hong Ye was busy with nothing, but she couldn't say anything to her in front of the young lady, so she said, "Serve the young lady a good meal first. The emperor doesn't need hungry soldiers. Let's talk about everything after we have lunch and take a rest."

Hongye was already staring at the pot of duck soup in a daze at this time, and didn't care at all what Cuiming said.

Although Lord Gu was not around, Qin Yuan still asked the two maids to eat together as usual, and asked them to share any leftovers.

After a while, Hongye came back and said, "Miss, it turns out that the Marquis went to the Sixth Madam's place and tied up the two maids guarding the Seventh Madam's yard. He asked the Sixth Madam to discipline them. Several maids were punished to guard the second gate."

Qin Yuan nodded.

It turns out that this is how Lord Gu manages Gu Baozhu.

Hongye added, "I heard that the Marquis asked the Sixth Lady to watch the Seventh Miss spinning and embroidering, saying that if the Seventh Miss lost the competition at the Qiqiao Conference, she would punish the Sixth Master."

"Oh?"

Qin Yuan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why?"

Hongye said, "It is said that the Marquis does not hit women, and the Sixth Madam did not manage the Seventh Miss well, so she punished the Sixth Master."

Qin Yuan laughed and said, "Does the Marquis want to beat the Sixth Master?"

Gu Baozhu didn't look like the type of person who could sit down and embroider. The old lady became very worried when she mentioned her needlework.

Hongye also laughed.

"Miss, I also know that the pipa girl that Sixth Master likes was originally a sister of Concubine Zheng in the brothel. Concubine Zheng has only been in favor for a few months, and she is about to fall out of favor. Yesterday, she even threatened to commit suicide. In order to coax her, Sixth Master did not go boating, and was caught by the Marquis."

Cui Ming asked curiously, "How did you know?"

...

Located in the largest brothel in the north of the city - Sangjiawazi.

"How did you know?"

Lord Gu's face was as gloomy as water, and his sharp eyes stared closely at the King of Qi who was sitting across from the desk.

Since returning from Saibei, he has not seen this old childhood friend.
