"Do you still have the silk flowers and spices you made for the eldest princess last year? Since Mother is here, let's make some paper flowers. Mother can also send some back to Father. They'll be perfect for the study, where they'll fill the room with a lovely fragrance. Father loves the scent of winter plum blossoms. I still have quite a few winter plum buds left from last year, which is just right."
Li Chenjiao clapped her hands and laughed.
Shen agreed, but she couldn't make paper flowers; she could only make paper flower stems. She wasn't particularly skillful; her embroidery skills had always been mediocre since childhood, and it wasn't due to any influence from her past life's memories.
Fourth Master went to Niohuru's place yesterday, but didn't go into the backyard today.
When the flowers, along with the vase, were delivered to the East Courtyard, Fourth Master had just finished discussing matters with Dai Duo in the study.
Su Peisheng carefully carried the vase into the study.
The Fourth Master was resting with his eyebrows rubbed when he heard the noise, but didn't open his eyes: "What is it?"
Su Peisheng answered in a very formal and methodical manner.

However, flowers are not a rare thing, and Li Chenjiao probably doesn't have that many ulterior motives.
Those heartless people just sent gifts to appease us, without saying anything else.
Fourth Master withdrew his hand, secretly grinding his teeth.
A gentle expression, unnoticed even by himself, flowed across his face.
After a while, the Fourth Master stood up and looked around the study with the vase in his arms.
It's easy to bump into it if you put it on the desk, and you can't see it if you put it in the outer room.
Finally, the Fourth Master went around in circles and found a suitable place to put the vase, a place that he could see from his desk.
Fourth Master sat back down at his desk with satisfaction.
Even the most tedious official duties don't seem so unpleasant anymore.
