I just want to rob you of your luck

The Queen Mother looked at Lin Jiuer and saw that she was pretty and charming, with beads of sweat on her forehead.

A gentle smile appeared on his face: "Thank you for your hard work, girl. I feel much better now. I just ate two more pieces of beef. Why do I suddenly have such unbearable stomach pain?"

The old maid next to her couldn't help but say, "Queen Mother, have you forgotten? You ate two chestnut cakes before coming here, and you ate a lot of beef at the banquet just now. Isn't that bloating?"

Lin Jiuer said softly, "Queen Mother, your spleen and stomach are weak, so it is indeed not suitable for you to eat chestnut cakes. You should also pay attention to your diet in the future and try to eat less food that is difficult to digest."

The Queen Mother glanced at the old maid with dissatisfaction and said, "You are the only one who talks too much." But there was not much blame in her tone.

The emperor looked at the queen mother helplessly: "Mother, are you eating chestnut cakes again? You should take care of your body and not be so willful."

The Queen Mother showed a guilty expression: "I know, I know, I just like this, but can't I just eat it occasionally?"

Emperor Nanmo was helpless against the Queen Mother.

At this time Lu Fan also arrived, and the emperor hurriedly asked him to take the empress dowager's pulse again.

Lu Fan said, "Your Majesty, this is stomach bloating caused by improper diet, but it seems that she has recovered a lot. She just needs to drink soup and medicine for a few days and it will be fine. But you have to be extra careful with your diet in the future."

The emperor felt more relieved and asked Imperial Physician Lu to prepare the medicine.

Lin Jiuer quickly said to the old maid next to the Queen Mother: "Mammy, I will teach you the massage technique I just used. If the Queen Mother encounters such a situation in the future, you can also use this method to massage her and relieve her pain."

The old nanny gratefully agreed, and Lin Jiuer gave the empress dowager another massage. The palace maids around the empress dowager watched attentively.

After the massage, the Queen Mother was able to walk again.

She pulled Lin Jiuer and showed a loving smile on her face, and directly put the emerald green bracelet on her hand onto Lin Jiuer's hand.

Lin Jiuer quickly declined, but the Queen Mother held her hand.

"Here, I think you look kind. Come and walk around my palace when you have time."

Lin Jiuer quickly bowed with joy: "Yes, thank you Queen Mother for your kindness."

"I heard that you are the concubine of the Seventh Prince? The Seventh Prince is a blessed one."

Lin Jiuer replied respectfully: "Your Highness the Seventh Prince does not despise me for being from the common people and is willing to ask for permission to marry me as a concubine. Only then will I have the blessing of marrying into the royal family.

I am truly grateful to be able to see the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, and the Empress, who are admired and praised by all the people."

Flattery never wears out, and with just one conversation, Lin Jiuer complimented everyone present.

It was rare for them to hear such straightforward compliments, and they all thought Lin Jiuer was quite interesting.

There was a smile on his face when he looked at her.

Emperor Nanmo saw that Lin Jiuer could make the Queen Mother happy, and he looked up to her a little more.

"Since the Queen Mother likes you, you should visit her in the palace from time to time, which can also be regarded as showing filial piety to the Seventh Prince."

Lin Jiuer quickly bowed deeply and responded solemnly.

The Queen also recounted the story of Lin Jiuer treating Princess Heshun's injuries. After hearing this, the Queen Mother looked at Lin Jiuer with even more fondness.

Emperor Nanmo waved his hand and said, "There will be rewards for merit. Come, give the Seventh Prince's Mansion a hundred taels of gold, and give Concubine Lin a set of filigree gold and jade headwear."

Lin Jiuer received another reward and thanked with a smile.

He did not return to his seat until he saw the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and the Empress leave.

Hu Yunshao glared at Lin Jiuer with jealousy. Why did this woman like to show off so much?

She was afraid that others didn’t know that she knew some medical skills!

Lin Jiuer glared back at her: "Your Majesty just rewarded our Seventh Prince's Mansion with a hundred taels of gold. I earned all of this. Do you have any objections? If you have any objections, go and argue with His Majesty!"

Hu Yunshao gnashed his teeth in anger, but he didn't dare to lose his temper here. Besides, she had won the reward for the Seventh Prince's Mansion, so how could he reprimand her?

Otherwise, others would think that she has something against His Majesty.

But she felt extremely unbalanced. How could Lin Jiuer be so lucky to receive the reward from His Majesty!

Concubine Deng saw the bracelet on Lin Jiuer's arm and asked in surprise: "Concubine Lin, I remember you didn't bring the bracelet when you came?"

"Oh, this is what you're talking about? This is the reward that the Queen Mother brought to me."

When Hu Yunshao heard this, his nails dug into his flesh. Lin Jiuer actually received rewards from the Empress Dowager and the Emperor. It seemed that her medical skills were indeed amazing.

But if she killed the real Seventh Prince and found someone to replace him, that would be a different matter.

She will not give up investigating this matter. Hu Yunshao has determined that the current Seventh Prince is a fake.

The banquet was coming to an end and the guests were gradually leaving. Hu Yunshao looked at Lin Jiuer and Concubine Deng coldly.

"Go home."

She didn't want to stay here any longer, otherwise she didn't know what trouble Lin Jiuer would cause.

Concubine Deng whispered to Lin Jiuer, "I have just asked the maids to deliver those beauty creams to the nobles in the palace. I think our beauty creams will sell well this time."

Lin Jiuer nodded happily: "Let's talk about it on the way."

After getting on the carriage for the return trip, Lin Jiuer discussed the plan to open a new store with Concubine Deng.

Concubine Deng agreed with both hands: "My store is indeed too small. If I build a bigger one and renovate it well, my sales will definitely increase several times!"

"I'll leave the location selection to you. We'll still share the profits of the new store according to our previous split."

In fact, Concubine Deng has made a lot of money recently by selling beauty creams with Lin Jiuer, and she feels a little embarrassed.

"You made all the money for His Highness, how can I give you so much? I won't share the profits from the new store. I am already satisfied with the profits from the old store."

Lin Jiuer shook her head: "You have to take care of the business and sales, how can you not get a share of the profits?"

"Then give me 10%, I don't need that much money."

Finally, after the two discussed for a long time, Concubine Deng only agreed to take 20%, so Lin Jiuer stopped persuading her.

The rest of the earnings belong to her for safekeeping. In fact, Zhou Yichen doesn't spend much money now.

However, when encountering disaster relief efforts like this one, she also donated money to raise a lot of medicinal materials, so naturally the more money the better.

After the flower-viewing banquet, the sales of Concubine Deng's cosmetics shop increased several times. Many new customers received gifts at the flower-viewing banquet, tried the products and found them good, so they bought them.

Concubine Deng was very efficient. Of course, the Deng family was a big merchant family, so they quickly helped find a shop with a suitable location and price.

Lin Jiuer and Concubine Deng used the money they earned to buy the shop, and the title deed naturally fell into the hands of Lin Jiuer.

It took a week to redecorate the store. During this week, Lin Jiuer and Concubine Deng worked non-stop and asked the people in the workshop to produce a large number of beauty creams, whitening creams, blemish-lightening creams, scar-soothing creams and other products.

Lin Jiuer named the store Huanyanfang, meaning that using the products here can give you a new look.

The shop has been renovated and the new products are almost ready.

Lin Jiuer trained four newly bought maids to serve as shopping guides for the new shop.

After everyone memorized all kinds of sales tactics, Lin Jiuer finally breathed a sigh of relief with satisfaction.

Suddenly I realized that half a month had passed without me noticing.

During this period, Zhou Yichen only sent her one letter, telling her about the current situation in Yanzhou, which was indeed the same as Lin Jiuer predicted.
