Cen's mother hugged her daughter tightly; there was really nothing she could do, after all, this was her own daughter.

Just keep it a secret for her, what else can you do?

The little dumpling in her arms gave Xiangxiang a flirtatious wink.

See? I told you nobody knew about this.

Hou Xiangxiang nodded and smiled at Huo Xiaolong.

"You mean people in Pingyang County don't use willow branches to brush their teeth anymore? What do they use then?" the Prefect's wife asked.

"Use a toothbrush, the new one from Huaxuetang, paired with their specially formulated tooth powder. It works amazingly well; the tooth powder leaves a pleasant fragrance in your mouth after brushing."

"Huh? My mouth smells so good after brushing? I have to suffer with salt every morning, this tooth powder isn't salty, is it?"

"It's not salty at all; it's made with a fragrance blend of flowers that bloom right now in winter. It smells absolutely wonderful."

"That's a really good product. When can we start selling it in Beining?"

He Qingzhu smiled

"Beining is probably going to be in the second half of the month. I recently moved to a larger shop, but today all the ladies here can take these home to try first. I also have a few jars of Huaxuetang's new products. I am just a merchant and really don't have anything to offer. These are all I have. Please don't find them too expensive."

"Mr. He is being too modest."

"That's right, normally even if we fought tooth and nail for something from Hua Xuetang, we might not be able to get it."

"Well, if we're talking about money, how can my husband's meager earnings compare to the merchants'? Sometimes, if we don't pre-order, we don't even need the goods."

Miss He bowed slightly and said

"Thank you all for your kindness. I've just arrived in Beining and this is the first time I've met you all. If it's convenient for you, please reserve a place for me later. When Huaxuetang releases new products, we'll prioritize delivering them to you. If you need to pre-order anything, just let the shop assistant know; it won't be included in the shop's inventory."

"That's good."

"Absolutely! Ever since I started using your plum blossom cream, I feel like I can't put anything else on my face anymore."

As that lady said, Huaxuetang is a business, and what is most important in business? Money! These officials' wives really don't have as much money as merchants. Not every official is lucky enough to find a wealthy wife like a marquis's wife.

He Qingzhu's promise to them today prompted the ladies present to skip the pre-order and rush to buy. Who wouldn't want something useful? Judging from Hua Xuetang's attitude, if they didn't use it now, it would probably be even harder to buy it after it became a royal supplier.
