After offering herself as a sacrifice, Ye Wanxi unexpectedly transmigrated back to modern times. From then on, the renowned "green tea bitch" and drama queen of the entertainment industry b...
Chapter 480 Custom-Made Perfume
Ye Wanxi was immediately captivated by the painting and couldn't put it down, but the key point was...
"How did they do that? I don't remember ever being in the same frame as him like that before."
Du Yihuan chuckled and said mysteriously, "This sister-in-law has to thank me."
"Um?"
"The sister-in-law in the picture was taken from the exclusive version of the advertisement that was released later. As for my brother... I took that picture secretly."
"Taken secretly?"
"Strictly speaking, you can't say that. I took the photos openly and honestly. Sister-in-law, you probably never noticed the way my brother looked at you so intently, did you?"
Ye Wanxi was stunned.
"I never thought I would see such a look in my brother's eyes before. But it was because I saw it that I realized for the first time that there is truth to the saying that when someone truly likes another person, their eyes cannot hide it."
Ye Wanxi felt a sweet warmth in her heart, but she was also very embarrassed to discuss such a thing in front of her parents.
"I really like this painting, thank you."
Gao Min was quite surprised by Feng's mother's sudden arrival, and couldn't help but look up at her several times during the meal.
I found that she has a great personality; she is gentle, intellectual, mature, considerate, and easy to get along with.
Most importantly, he treated Ye Wanxi, his future daughter-in-law, very well, constantly serving her food and showing concern for her well-being, without any airs.
They didn't look like they were meeting for the first time; rather, they looked like good sisters who had known each other for many years.
The weight that had been on my heart finally lifted a little.
Thankfully, Mr. Feng isn't a mama's boy, and his mother isn't the type to cause trouble. Wanxi shouldn't suffer after marrying into his family.
Ye Wanxi was completely unaware that her agent was acting like a mother hen, already planning her married life.
After the meal, Ye Wanxi's initial nervousness in front of Feng's mother dissipated considerably.
Before leaving, Ye Wanxi made sure to give everyone a return gift.
Of course, the biggest portion went to Mom.
"Auntie, these are some little things I made myself. I hope you won't mind them."
Mrs. Feng looked surprised: "Oh my, there's a gift too? Did you make it yourself? Let Auntie see what it is."
The medicine mud that Ye Wanxi gave to Feng's mother was the same one she had sold to Sister Yao before. In fact, Ye Wanxi gave a small box to each of the female customers who came today.
Feng's mother gave away three boxes, in addition to two bottles of perfume.
"This medicinal mud is something I made myself, and it works quite well for skincare. Each time, you only need to scoop out a small piece, about the size of a fingernail, soak it in water to dissolve, and then apply it to your face after it's semi-solidified. As for this perfume… I heard from you that you like lilies, so this one smells like lilies. You can try it if you like. If you don't like it…"
"I'm used to it, how could I not be used to it?" Madam Feng knew long ago that her future daughter-in-law was no ordinary person. Even if the things she brought out didn't look impressive, they must be rare and valuable items.
Even if it's not a good thing, the sentiment behind it is enough for her to appreciate.
"Thank you for the thoughtfulness, I really like this gift. However, more than the gift, I hope that next time we meet, you won't call me 'Auntie' anymore."
Ye Wanxi was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned bright red after she realized what was happening.
Madam Feng noticed the change in her expression, smiled mysteriously, and left with Du Yihuan and the others.
As soon as she got into the car after leaving Ye Wanxi’s house, Feng’s mother revealed her true colors. She couldn’t wait to take out the gift Ye Wanxi had given her and laughed heartily. Where was the gentle and dignified demeanor from before?
Du Yihuan, who was startled, was speechless. "Auntie, we're still outside. Be mindful of your image."
"I knew I was right. My little Xixi is so filial. She remembered that I like lilies and even made a custom-made perfume for me."
As she spoke, Mrs. Feng unscrewed the perfume cap and sprayed a little out.
In an instant, the fresh and lingering fragrance of lilies filled the car, and even the driver in front couldn't help but turn his head to take a look.
"This smells so good!" Du Yihuan felt refreshed and energetic after smelling the aroma.
The same goes for Feng's mother. She doesn't usually like to wear perfume, and even the most expensive perfumes make her feel uncomfortable.
She prefers growing flowers at home to wearing perfume, because no matter how much the perfume is diluted, it can never match the rich and captivating scent of real flowers.
Ye Wanxi's perfume was different. The moment the fragrance was released, Feng's mother truly thought a bouquet of fresh lilies was placed in front of her.
As the fragrance gradually fades, it loses all the cloying sweetness that comes with the aftertaste of a typical perfume, leaving one feeling a sense of loss.
Feng's mother looked the perfume bottle up and down, wanting to spray out a little more to smell the effect, but also reluctant to do so.
She only has this small bottle, and every little bit she uses is a little less, so she has to use it sparingly.
Du Yihuan sat next to her, feeling a little envious and jealous. She wanted a bottle of perfume made by her sister-in-law too.
Her eyes were undisguised, and Feng's mother noticed it immediately: "You like it?"
"……Um."
Mrs. Feng chuckled softly and tossed the bag into her hand: "Here you go."
"???"
Du Yihuan opened the bag and discovered that there was a bottle of perfume inside, and it was her favorite lavender scent.
"This, your sister-in-law gave it to me?"
"There are only the two of us here, and this isn't my taste. If it's not for you, why would it be for me?" Mrs. Feng said jokingly, trying to take it back.
Du Yihuan's expression changed slightly, and she hurriedly reached out to protect herself: "It's for me, it's for me, it's for me."
"You've got guts!"
Du Yihuan chuckled, clutching the bag: "Auntie, does that mean you'd like to give me your bottle too?"
"Don't even think about it. My sister-in-law gave it to me out of filial piety. How could I possibly give it to you?"
"...Then why did you just lecture me?"
"I'm reminding you that it's time for you to show your filial piety."
"Then I'll show my filial piety another time." Once it's in her hands, it's hers, and no one can take it away from her, not even her aunt.
Madam Feng glared at her feigned anger, then seemed to remember something and chuckled softly.
It doesn't matter that the perfume isn't hers alone; she has three other nice things, which she just checked. Everyone else only has one box.
After trying the perfume, Feng's mother became even more convinced that it must be a good product.
It's a pity that these two items are not like the previous bracelets; they can't be flaunted as much as before.
Otherwise, if someone seizes on this as a pretext and labels it a "three-no product" (product without manufacturer information, production date, or quality certification), it could easily cause trouble for their daughter-in-law, which would be a loss.
But it doesn't matter, she'll start using it when she gets home today, and once it works, she'll invite her girlfriends over for afternoon tea. She's not afraid of not having a chance to show off!
