Chapter 50 Explanation
Pei Yian couldn't even maintain a fake smile now. Realizing this, his previous excitement undoubtedly seemed like a joke!
He felt frustrated and at the same time a little amused. Sui Niang was like a piece of unconscious wood when it came to feelings.
So, why should I be angry with her?
Sui Niang obviously did nothing wrong, and she wasn't the one who fell in love first. I just don't know when this piece of wood will finally come to her senses.
Ji Zhisui also realized later that there seemed to be something wrong in the atmosphere, as if he had said something wrong.
She began to recall that Pei Yian had mentioned Chunfeng Tower earlier, but what did he say? Ji Zhisui couldn't remember.
"Ang'er, what happened to Chunfeng Tower?" Ji Zhisui practiced the principle of asking if he didn't understand.
"Nothing, Sui Niang said earlier that she wanted to be a cosmetician?" After Pei Yian figured it out, he suppressed all his emotions, did not intend to continue talking about this matter, and began to change the subject.
"Yes! An'er, the scent of your makeup is quite nice!" Ji Zhisui did not continue to dwell on the somewhat strange atmosphere in front of her. She was an optimistic and carefree person.
Pei Yian explained the whole story: "Sui Niang, I picked up this scent of powder when Zhang Xuan and I went to Chunfeng Tower. At first, he said he wanted to treat me to a drink, but I didn't expect to go to that kind of place. I didn't touch the women there, not even a second glance at them."
After all this, he decided to explain it clearly. He didn't want this little thing to become a hidden danger between them in the future. At the same time, he also had selfish motives. He was afraid that Sui Niang would take what Grandma Zhao said to heart, so he wanted to clear himself.
"I know! I believe you!" Ji Zhisui's voice was full of trust.
She knew what kind of person Pei Yian was and didn't think he would really do anything, so she asked more questions in the beginning and responded to what Grandma Zhao said just to make the old lady stop worrying.
The way she trusted him so fully made Pei Yian's heart soften. Sui Niang believed in him, believed in his character, and believed in his feelings.
It turns out that a person's emotions can wither like a desert in an instant, or they can revive and be full of spring in the next instant.
"Sui Niang, what kind of perfume do you like?" Pei Yian pretended to ask casually. After helping Manager Wu catch the mouse and getting the reward, he planned to buy a jar of perfume as a gift for Sui Niang.
He had never given Sui Niang anything serious, so if he was going to give her something, he would definitely give her something she liked.
Ji Zhisui likes the elegant scent of cedar, the kind that can calm people's minds, similar to the scent on Pei Yian's body. Of course, she only dares to think about it in her heart, but dares not say it out loud.
"The scent of agarwood, I like the scent of agarwood." The scent of cedar and agarwood is similar, but the latter can be said openly.
"Well, how are we going to get the cosmetics that Sui Niang mentioned?" Pei Yian continued to ask.
"I haven't come up with any idea yet! I plan to go to the back mountain tomorrow to take a look." Ji Zhisui suddenly had an idea.
Before, she had been limited to making money by setting up a stall to sell food. But today, when she smelled the scent of powder on Ang'er, she remembered that there is more than one way to make money.
In her previous life, she was also a semi-handmade blogger. She loved to study various ancient products and shot many videos on the production of ancient ointments and ancient soaps.
There are a lot of raw materials on the hill behind North Street, and she might be able to get some inspiration.
"Sui Niang is so amazing!" Pei Yian looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
Facing those eyes that were smiling deeply and seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts, Ji Zhisui looked away unnaturally and said awkwardly, "No, no, I just did it before."
"Well, can I accompany Sui Niang up the mountain tomorrow?"
Ji Zhisui originally planned to go up the mountain alone, but Pei Yian asked sincerely and humbly, so she had no choice but to agree to his request.
The two of them decided to go up the mountain. Ji Zhisui wanted to stay and clean up, but Pei Yian pushed him back to the room to rest.
He was now somewhat relieved that someone who was not very smart might not even be able to see his subtle initiative.
After returning to her room, Ji Zhisui didn't think much about it. She opened her piggy bank and found about ten taels of silver in it. She went to bed contentedly.
She had been too busy recently and hadn't visited the space spiritual spring for a long time. Once she entered, she found that the spiritual spring had become much larger visibly, from the size of a bowl to the size of a pottery jar.
She began to carefully recall everything that had happened, but it was all ordinary daily life, nothing major happened.
The only change I feel is that I am getting richer and richer...
In an instant, Ji Zhisui seemed to have grasped something.
The first time I noticed something was amiss with the Spirit Spring was after I sold the recipe for silver, and the second time was after I set up a stall selling spring rolls. All of this seemed to point to one thing...
Lingquan’s changes are related to the money she earns!
It seems that she is not only making money to buy a house and open a restaurant, but even the size of this spiritual spring is related to the money she earns.
After figuring out the changes in Lingquan, Ji Zhisui became more determined to make money and become a rich woman!
Pei Yian secretly contacted Manager Wu and told him about his discovery.
When talking about the black "kou" embroidery on the thin ribbons of cloth in the Zhang's Embroidery Workshop warehouse, Shopkeeper Wu's expression changed unpredictably, with anger mixed with shock. "How could it be... How could it be... This is the unique mark of our Wu's Embroidery Workshop..."
Only the head of the Wu family knows this secret mark, which is used to prevent the goods from being swapped or smuggled away.
The Wu Embroidery Workshop has been safely rooted in Qizhou County for a hundred years. If Master Pei hadn't mentioned this today, Shopkeeper Wu would have almost forgotten this mark.
This is similar to Pei Yian's previous guess. The mouse was able to take away so many pieces of cloth without being discovered. It must have great power. At least it is not an ordinary servant.
"Manager Wu, I've already told you the news. I'll be leaving now."
"Okay." Shopkeeper Wu was in no mood to keep anyone. She just wanted to go back and look at the warehouse account book to see what went wrong.
After seeing the people off, Shopkeeper Wu hurried to the warehouse.
When the warehouse manager saw Shopkeeper Wu, he stepped forward and asked, "Shopkeeper, why did you suddenly come here today? What's going on?"
"No problem. I just happened to be passing by, so I came to take a look. You go ahead and do your thing. By the way, where is the warehouse account book? I want to see it."
The warehouse manager pointed to a cabinet and said, "They're all in that cabinet. I arranged them by date."
"Boss, why did you suddenly think of looking at the account book? In the past, wasn't this task always assigned to Boss Fang?"
Shopkeeper Wu paused as he flipped through the account book, his voice rising, "Shopkeeper Fang?"
