Chapter 326 Sooner or later, you will know her purpose
Su Rui did not answer Rong Huan, as if she had not heard it, or perhaps, she did not want to continue arguing with Rong Huan on this topic.
Rong Huan didn't continue, but just looked at Su Rui deeply, as if she understood something.
"This is a new perfume powder from Fengyun Tower, personally blended by Concubine Su. It's a perfect match for the eldest princess."
As Wu Yun spoke, he took down an exquisitely carved elm box from the cabinet next to him and opened the box with his slender and powerful fingers.
The inside of the box is very exquisite. There is a bright small mirror inlaid on the lid, and there is a bristle brush underneath. The flat black lacquered wooden handle is easy to hold, and the carved twined flowers are also extremely exquisite. Only when the inner lid is opened can the white and pink scented powder inside be revealed.
However, although it was called perfume powder, everyone was only two or three steps away from it, but they didn't smell any fragrance at all.
Can this scentless thing be called perfume?
Just as he was wondering, Wu Yun picked up the brush with his fingers, dipped a little from the box, and shook it off with his hand.
A layer of white mist spread, and the fragrance spread along with it.
Very faint, very light, but smells exceptionally good.
When you first smell it, it has a fruity scent. When you smell it carefully, it has a floral scent, like lotus, gardenia, and a hint of woody scent.
This is a fragrance I have never smelled before. The men of Da Zhao also use incense powder and have their own understanding of incense. Now when they smell this fragrance, they feel surprised and excellent.
Not only suitable for women, but also for men.
In the past, people scoffed at Fengyunlou's use of male servants to attract people, thinking that it was just using male beauty to seduce women. Coupled with Su Rui's name, the business became more and more prosperous.
Now that I hear it, I realize he really has some real skills.
Everyone was distracted by the perfume powder and the changes in Fengyun Tower, and did not notice that Rong Huan's expression changed instantly the moment the perfume powder box was opened.
"Concubine Su's perfume-making skills are truly perfect." Rong Huan smiled, but her almond-shaped eyes were full of sharpness. However, the two of them were standing close to each other, and only Su Rui could see them because of the obstruction.
"Compared with the perfumer of Dongyue, it is still not enough. If one note is missing, it will not be perfect. If I am lucky enough to go to Dongyue in the future, I will definitely ask the perfumer of Dongyue for advice." Su Rui answered modestly, but there was a sharp smile in his eyes.
Only the two of them knew what was said to each other.
Rong Huan knew that Su Rui was good at using spices, so she deliberately set up a trap based on this. However, she never thought that Su Rui was so skilled that she could almost replicate the perfume on her body through indirect smell after just a few contacts.
The aroma is almost identical, with only very subtle differences, which is what Su Rui said, missing a flavor.
But Su Rui didn't know about this ingredient, or she deliberately didn't add it. It couldn't be seen from her expression, but it didn't prevent her from silently telling Rong Huan that if she wanted to replicate it, it would only be a matter of time, and sooner or later she would know her purpose.
The reason for the perfume on my body is...
"Su Rui! I finally caught him!"
Suddenly a triumphant voice sounded, and before anyone could react, a small figure jumped out.
It was obviously a little thing, but it was directed at Su Rui. Pei Yan did not actively stop it, but just protected Rong Huan and let the figure rush to Su Rui, holding Su Rui's arms tightly with both hands.
Only after the other person stood still could I see that it was a child.
It's hard to say that she could see clearly, but she could tell from the body shape that it was a child. He was wearing clothes commonly seen in nearby shops, and his face was covered with a scarf. All she could see was a pair of eyes staring at Su Rui, and he looked very angry.
Wondering where this kid came from, Su Rui pulled her hand away and said unhappily, "Who told you to come out? Let go."
"I won't let go! You're my aunt, you should stay with me!"
aunt?
Everyone was wondering where Su Rui's nephew came from.
Su Ye, who was exiled a long time ago, has never married, so how could he have such a big son? And Su Rui has no brothers or sisters except Su Ye.
Except for Zhou Yao's children...
Marquis Longfeng!
Everyone came to their senses immediately. When they saw the two people pulling, they saw that the arm in the child's sleeve was still bandaged. Wasn't it the arm of Marquis Longfeng who had escaped from the fire a few days ago?
Why call Su Rui aunt and accompany him?
But looking at his small stature, thinking that he is only less than ten years old, and thinking about his turbulent and pitiful life experience, I can understand it.
Although he had obtained a title, his parents were both dead, his adoptive mother Changning went crazy and was exiled, and Prince Long's palace was completely raided. He was alone in the huge mansion and naturally felt lonely.
Now he was almost burned to death again, and he survived only after seeing Su Rui with a little faith. Naturally, he would feel dependent on the only relative in the world.
"I have something else to do, you go back home first."
Su Rui wanted to pull her hand away, but the wolf cub held on tighter. He wrapped his arms around Su Rui's hand and said, "I won't. You lied to me. You're busy all day long, and you just don't come to see me. I don't care. I won't go back. I won't go back to the Marquis' Mansion, where there's no ghost. I don't want to go back! If you want to go back, come with me!"
As she spoke, tears of grievance began to fall. She looked like she had suffered a great injustice, and her whole body was pulled out. She said that she would not stop until she dragged Su Rui back to accompany her today.
If it were an ordinary situation, it would be fine, but in front of everyone in Dongyue, Lord Wu immediately stepped forward to persuade them.
"Stop messing around!"
Su Rui was annoyed and pulled her hand away forcefully.
Perhaps because she used too much force or because the wolf cub didn't hold on tightly enough, Su Rui pulled her hand away. The wolf cub, having lost the strength to resist, suddenly lost his balance and fell backwards, heading right towards Rong Huan.
Everyone always looked down on children, and no one expected them to bump into Rong Huan, so they all scrambled to stop them.
But everything happened too fast and the distance was too close, so the wolf cub instinctively wanted to grab Rong Huan's hand to maintain his balance.
Pei Yan took a quick step forward and grabbed the wolf cub with his hand.
The crisis was over, but Rong Huan raised her hand when the wolf cub was about to grab her hand. When she saw Pei Yan stopping her, she quickly put her hand down and covered everything with her sleeves again.
"What does Concubine Su mean by this? Do you want to attack the eldest princess?" Pei Yan grabbed the wolf cub and questioned Su Rui with a frown.
Seeing that Pei Yan had finally seized the opportunity, Lord Wu stepped forward to mediate, "It was an accident, an accident. It was all careless. Deputy Commander Pei, don't be too nervous."
"Accident?" Pei Yan snorted coldly, scanning the men in Fengyun Tower. Thinking of Yue Heyun constantly hanging out with these people, his heart had become wild and his ruthlessness intensified. "The Princess's arrival in Jinling wasn't a surprise. Jinling Street was fully guarded, except for this shop, and he..."
Pei Yan raised his hand and lifted the wolf cub up. "If someone hadn't let him in, how could he have slipped through all the defenses?"
