The perfumers who were attending the banquet had all arrived and started making incense.
The spices that the Lu family sourced were undoubtedly of the highest quality, and even with such a mixture, it was not unbearable.
Ye Lin played with the sachet in her hand, which was the one that Shen Bei'an had just prepared.
Shen Bei'an had finished making all three sachets by this time, because Gu Nan'an didn't allow him to eat desserts casually outside.
I received a beautiful antique-style thermos cup with crane patterns from Yan Yin.
Standing next to him, Ye Lin almost lost her composure. "Wait, An'an, how old are you? You're already using a thermos? What's in it?" She leaned closer to look.
Although the thermos was very beautiful, it was almost impossible to tell that it was a thermos; it was very exquisite.
But a young man who had just turned twenty was carrying around a thermos, with something inside that I don’t know what it contained, probably something to calm his nerves and nourish his body.
Shen Bei'an was very enthusiastic, "Ayan made me some things to make tea, they're delicious! Just as good as flower tea and fruit tea! Would you like some?"
Although those pills taste pretty good.
He didn't use the wrong word.
It's really delicious, with a soft and chewy pastry texture. I don't know how it's made.
Since the goal is to nourish the spirit, how did Yan Yan manage to obtain these medicinal herbs from somewhere?
I don't know if it's medicinal herbs, but I've prepared it for him. He can fill a thermos with it every day, and add water multiple times. In the evening, he can take the contents out of the thermos and add some other things to make a bath.
Anyway, it's very comfortable.
I inexplicably feel that my wife is really frugal.
Ye Lin waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no." How could someone who usually drinks ice water possibly drink something like this?
"It's delicious!" Shen Bei'an strongly recommended. "Xiao Yezi, trust me, I heard from A Yan that this is very good for your mental well-being. Don't you spend all your time on the computer? Give it a try, and if it works, I'll send you a few packets."
If it's about nourishing the mind, then Xiao Yezi, who studies computer science, definitely needs it.
She couldn't help but look at Ye Lin's thick, black hair.
Noticing Shen Bei'an's gaze, Ye Lin covered her hair and said, "No need, I'm in great spirits, and my hair is perfect!"
Having seen something, she changed the subject, "Look! The third young master of the Tang family has such a wide range of interests, he's even making perfume."
The princes of the empire mostly learn to blend spices, but few are willing to learn how to make perfumes, unless their family businesses are involved in it.
But as far as she knew, the Tang family didn't seem to have this kind of knowledge, right?
Shen Beian was not surprised at all.
It's often said that female protagonists in fantasy novels have many aliases, but some supporting female characters also have quite a few.
It feels like the female lead has some kind of hidden identity, and while the supporting female character isn't as good as the female lead, she still has one too.
Even compared to ordinary people, this is top-notch.
“That’s normal. After all, she’s a well-bred young lady carefully cultivated by the Tang family. Don’t forget, isn’t Madam Tang the daughter of a prominent family in the south? The young lady she raised is naturally exceptional,” Shen Bei’an said.
Although he didn't know much about the other families, he knew a lot about the Tang family.
There's nothing we can do; he's already read the original book.
“That’s right, I almost forgot.” Ye Lin then realized, “If we’re really talking about it, Madam Tang and Master Tang have indeed put a lot of effort into Young Master Tang, so it’s no wonder they’re unwilling to acknowledge Young Master Xie.”
It's not that I can't understand it.
Although they are related by blood, this one was raised by my side from a young age, and I know him inside and out. A lot of time and effort was spent cultivating him.
The person we just found doesn't seem to have a particularly good temper, and doesn't appear to be very willing to acknowledge their ancestry.
And look, they haven't even changed their surname yet.
People in the capital usually address him as "Young Master Xie" rather than "Second Young Master Tang".
The engagement with the Chu family has been dissolved.
Shen Bei'an was happily drinking water when Ye Lin blinked and looked over, "Beibei, is Young Master Xie competing with Young Master Tang?"
She did study computer science, that's for sure, but her eyesight has always been 5.2, which is perfect.
Shen Bei'an looked over through the hazy heat, "It should be, but what are we competing for now? Isn't there an auction later?"
At the Lu family's Fragrance Appreciation Banquet, the auction prices of perfumes or spices will be ranked, and the author and the specific feelings that the perfume or spice gives people will be noted.
In other words, the ranking of the world's perfumers will also be derived from this.
Master Banxia, who rose to fame three years ago, is an example of this.
"Who knows?" Ye Lin said, intrigued. "Beibei, do you want to go over and listen?"
She's also very interested in gossip and such.
Shen Bei'an and she exchanged a smile. They silently moved to a spot not too close, not too far, and sat down, fiddling with spices in their hands. They appeared to be chatting, but in reality…
"Sister has just returned to the capital and may not be familiar with the etiquette of this banquet," the young lady said in a gentle, clear voice, her words full of concern. "Although invitations were extended to perfumers from all over the world, sister..."
She didn't say the rest of her sentence, but looked apologetically at the girl in front of her who was slightly taller than her.
Xie Yunyu raised her hand and pinched her brows. "You still haven't cured your habit of leaving things unsaid. Isn't the First Hospital of Beijing very powerful? Besides, the fourth-generation cell repair device is now widely available. It's not like the Tang family doesn't have the money to treat you. You're still not better?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Lin silently gave a thumbs up.
pretty!
Shen Beian gestured downwards, indicating that she should continue listening.
"Sister, how...how could you say that?" Tang Ruowei seemed to find it hard to accept, her beautiful eyes misting over. "I...I was just reminding you, sister. If you don't know how to make incense, the auction will not only embarrass you, but also bring shame to the Tang family."
"Stop." Xie Yunyu raised her hand in a "stop" gesture. "First, are you even from the Lu family? The Lu family hasn't said anything yet, what are you babbling about? Second, I hadn't even done anything yet, and you came up here saying I don't know how to make incense, and you've been putting on a whole show. Third, I'm stating the facts, don't act like I bullied you and then put on this tearful act. Fourth, don't try to play the victim, and don't keep bringing up 'my Tang family.' I only acknowledge my grandfather and brother in the Tang family; you're none of my business."
Finally, Tang Ruowei, stop bothering me all the time, or you'll see.
"Now, stop blocking the way. You like to speak in a refined manner, fine, I'm a straightforward person, take it or leave it. Besides, gentlemen, even if you're not young masters from the capital, as she just said, you're all reasonable people, you should be able to see that, right?"
