The Regent Princess has run away again

It was also Xue Zhiyu's first time traveling in a carriage. She couldn't help but lift the curtain to look outside. Because of her work, she was either in the hospital or studying in the library. She rarely went out to play, let alone visit ancient buildings.

Before she could take in the sights and sounds here, the carriage had already stopped in front of an empty shop.

With the help of the maid, the two got off the carriage. Because they were in a hurry to get out, Xue Zhiyu did not bring Xiaoqiu with her this time.

"Girl Zhiyu, let's go in and take a look to see if you are satisfied with this shop."

"That's quite satisfying. I'm already very grateful to Madam for having a shop here," Xue Zhiyu said truthfully. After all, from her observations along the way, it was rare to have a shop here.

"You are such a talkative girl, don't just stand there and go in."

"Okay, ma'am."

Upon entering the shop, Xue Zhiyu didn't know much about this, so she could only check if there were any basic problems with the shop.

There were two rooms in the shop, but neither of them was small. Xue Zhiyu frowned more and more as she looked at them. She turned her head and looked at Madam Li and said, "Madam, I want to renovate these two rooms. They are a waste of space."

"Hmm? Is there something wrong?"

"If we open a clinic, if a patient needs to rest here, at most two people can rest here, but the room is too big. It's a waste of space to have a room that can accommodate ten people with only one person resting here."

Seeing her talking so eloquently, as if this was a very normal thing for her, Mrs. Li's appreciation grew even stronger. Others said that Third Miss Xue was a waste, but now in her opinion, if this girl was a waste, no one would dare to say that they were smart.

Xue Zhiyu realized belatedly that this was a shop that someone else had found for her. Wouldn't it be too much for her to say that this was not allowed and that was not allowed? She glanced at Madam Li cautiously from the corner of her eye, and she was relieved to see that she looked normal.

"Okay, let's do as you say. Just be brave and come to me if you need anything."

"Then... Madam, can you help me find the best craftsman and have him modify it according to my drawings?"

Mrs. Li couldn't help but be surprised, "You can also draw blueprints?"

"A little bit," Xue Zhiyu said as she made some small gestures.

"Alas, it seems that your mother really gave birth to a baby. I always feel that you are still hiding something from me. You should know more."

"You flatter me. It's nothing."

Madam Li really liked her more and more. As if she remembered something, she took her hand and said affectionately, "Girl Zhiyu, are you engaged?"

Xue Zhiyu thought about it and realized that the original owner had no idea of ​​being engaged to anyone, so when she heard Mrs. Li ask this, she subconsciously shook her head.

The smile on Mrs. Li's face became even wider. She really felt like she was looking at her daughter-in-law. The more she looked, the more she liked her.

"What's wrong, ma'am?"

"Ah... It's okay, it's okay. By the way, if you have finished drawing the blueprint, just ask the maid to bring it to me. I will help you take care of everything."

"This... is not good. How can I let my wife spend so much money?"

"It doesn't matter. Anyway... I like you very much, so just consider it as a gift for meeting you." Mrs. Li almost let the cat out of the bag. She couldn't help but secretly congratulate herself for reacting quickly.

"Madam, I will probably ask the maid to deliver the shop's blueprint to the general's mansion tomorrow. As for the medicinal materials, please don't bother me," Xue Zhiyu thought for a moment and decided that it would be more reassuring if she handled the medicinal materials herself.

"Well, since you have made up your mind, let's do it."

"Thank you ma'am."

The two chatted as they walked out of the shop. Xue Zhiyu had originally planned to go home, but Madam Li pulled her into a cloth shop and said she wanted to make a few clothes for her.

"Madam, it's really not necessary, you..."

"If you keep being so polite, I'll be unhappy," Madam Li pretended to be angry and frowned. Then she said to the tailor behind her, "Make a few clothes for this girl. When you're done, send them to Prime Minister Xue's residence, and then you can go to the general's residence to get the money."

"Yes, ma'am," the tailor replied, and walked up to Xue Zhiyu and bowed, "Miss, please follow me."

Xue Zhiyu had no choice but to look at Madam Li with gratitude and followed the tailor.

Because it was just measurements, it came out very quickly.

Madam Li pulled her to the jewelry store next door. No matter what Xue Zhiyu said, Madam Li packed up several sets of currently popular jewelry and forced her to accept them.

"Madam, you really don't have to buy so much for me," Xue Zhiyu looked at the beautifully packaged jewelry in her hands, feeling both moved and helpless.

"It's just a few sets of jewelry. You're about to have your coming-of-age ceremony, so you should know how to dress yourself up."

Madam Li went on to talk about some etiquette and dressing after the coming-of-age ceremony. Xue Zhiyu's eyes almost sparkled with stars. Isn't this just the so-called coming-of-age ceremony? Is it really necessary to go through so much trouble?

"It's getting late, let's go to Sixi Tower," Mrs. Li could also see that Xue Zhiyu was sleepy, and said to the maid beside her with a smile.

"Madam, the carriage is ready."

Xue Zhiyu did not refuse this time and followed Madam Li into the carriage.

Arriving at Sixi Tower, Xue Zhiyu was once again impressed by the ancient architecture. One could tell at a glance that the people who came here were either rich or noble. Compared with the shops next to it, Sixi Tower had an inexplicable sense of luxury.

As soon as he entered, the boss at the front desk, whose eyes had been calm before, suddenly lit up. He stood up and walked over to her and said in a very flattering manner, "Madam, I have always reserved your private room. Is it the same as usual today?"

"Ah."

"Okay! Waiter, hurry up and take your wife upstairs. Be careful, otherwise I will make you pay," the boss pulled one of the waiters over and turned to say viciously.

Seeing this, the waiter dared not say anything. He lowered his head and made a gesture of invitation, led the two of them to the second floor, pushed open one of the private rooms, and wiped the table very carefully, as if he wanted to wipe the corner of the table as well.

"Madam, would you like to try our specialty tea? It was recently prepared by a chef from Jiangnan. It's called Meng Hui Xiang. It's said that after drinking this tea, you will even have the fragrance in your dreams."

"Okay, let's try it."

"Okay!" Upon hearing this, the waiter stepped out and considerately closed the door.

After everyone left, Madam Li looked at Xue Zhiyu and said, "This master from Jiangnan is best at tea art, but his method of preparing tea is very different from the usual tea."

Speaking of tea, Xue Zhiyu thought of the can of rose tea she bought in the modern era, and suddenly felt a little distressed. She had only drunk it a few times before she traveled through time.

Madam Li saw her frowning and asked with concern, "Girl Zhiyu, what's wrong with you?"

"No, I was just wondering who that master was, since the lady praised him so much."

"Hahahaha, you'll know why after you try his tea."

Just as Mrs. Li finished speaking, the waiter who had just brought them up came in dragging a pot of tea and teacups. He slowly placed the pot and teacups on the table, poured tea for the two of them, and then walked out with the tray.

Xue Zhiyu looked at the light yellow tea in the cup. She smelled a sweet scent before she drank it. She couldn't help but take a sip. She didn't know much about tea, so she could only taste the sweet and tangy taste in the tea.

"How is it?" Mrs. Li also took a sip, put down the teacup and asked.

“Yes, although I don’t know what’s in this tea, but the taste leaves a lingering fragrance on my lips and teeth after drinking it. No wonder it’s called Dream Fragrance. I guess this taste will be in my dreams tonight,” Xue Zhiyu said, and then she took another sip, a hint of satisfaction on her face.

........

Madam Li took Xue Zhiyu out for a stroll for almost the entire afternoon before sending her back to the Xue residence.

Before leaving, Xue Zhiyu seemed to remember the ointment she was going to bring to Madam Li in the morning, and handed it to her from her sleeve, "Madam, this is Iron Ointment, it can heal injuries from falls, even bumps."

"Girl Zhiyu knows so many things. She can make pills and ointments. She can even be a court physician," Mrs. Li joked as she took the ointment she handed over.

"Madam, you are joking. It's not worth mentioning. How can it be compared with the imperial physicians in the palace?" Mainly because it was not made by her, and it was not produced by major pharmaceutical companies, so she felt a little guilty about the praise.

After chatting for a while, Mrs. Li got on the carriage again and left.

Xue Zhiyu watched the carriage leave, turned around and walked a few steps into the mansion, Xiaoqiu walked over quickly, she was really crying.

"Miss, you should bring me with you next time. If anything happens, how will I explain to my aunt?"

"Oh, I really can't stand you, girl. I'm fine." As if afraid that she wouldn't believe it, Xue Zhiyu turned around to prove that she was really fine.

"Oh, by the way, Miss, Madam asked me to inform you when I see you, and to gather in the front hall in the evening. Every aunt and young lady will be there tonight."

Upon hearing the news, Xue Zhiyu felt a headache. This old witch has been making trouble all day long. If it wasn't for the Hongmen Banquet, she would have been tempted to engage in a verbal battle with gossips, and she would just sit back and reap the benefits.

Humph, but she is in a good mood today, so it’s okay to play with her.

Thinking of this, Xue Zhiyu responded and walked slowly towards her bedroom. Xiaoqiu behind her looked at the young lady's expression and felt inexplicably creepy, as if someone was going to be unlucky.
