A piece of Japanese incense

"Sister...and sister, I will go back now and tell mother about this and let her make the decision for you." Zhi Siqi walked over and said solemnly.

I smiled and replied, "Oh no! I said I would bring you to see a play, but instead I let you watch a joke. When you go back, you must exaggerate and tell Her Royal Highness the Princess and Daddy. You must let everyone in the world know how wronged I am." I tried to make myself look weak and helpless.

"Ok!"

Looking at his determined eyes, I smiled and said, "Wait a moment, I'll get you some hand cream."

I took out a can of essential oil and a small porcelain bottle of hand cream and handed them to him. I opened the lid of the essential oil, put a little on my fingertips, and asked the eunuch behind Zhi Siqi, "What's your name?"

Zhi Siqi glanced at the young eunuch sideways. The young eunuch raised his head and looked towards Zhi Siqi. Seeing that all eyes were on him, he knelt down in an instant and said in panic: "In reply to the young lady, this servant is Zou Guang."

"Watch carefully, every day after your son washes his hands, you should first apply hand cream on him, then apply some essential oil, rub and massage the skin around his nails until the oil dissipates and is absorbed by his fingers. Also, supervise him to drink more water and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and over time, he won't have hangnails on his hands." I said as I applied hand cream to Zhi Siqi and demonstrated to Zou Guang at the same time.

Zhi Siqi looked nervous and looked down at his feet. The blush on his face revealed his shyness and embarrassment.

"This essential oil can be used all over the body, for massage or hot compress. It is gentle and delicate when applied to the skin. It can moisturize the skin and keep it smooth and delicate. It also has a pleasant aroma and taste, which can make people feel happy, relaxed, and relieve tension. This product comes from San Sheng Tang. If Xiao Qi finds it useful, you can recommend it to your mother or more relatives and friends~"

"Oh, I see." Zhi Siqi responded.

I handed the essential oil and hand cream to Zou Guang and reminded him, "But you need to use them with caution. You can try them behind your ears or on a small part of your skin first. If you experience any adverse reactions, stop using them immediately."

Zou Guang agreed and accepted the essential oil and hand cream.

"Then, I will go back first."

I nodded and said goodbye, "Be safe and drink plenty of water!"

As they were about to walk out of the courtyard, it suddenly occurred to me that the most common people in the palace are palace maids and eunuchs, and essential oil advertisements can also be placed on them.

So I called Zou Guang, and smiled as I pulled out a golden hairpin and handed it to him: "Little Eunuch Zou has been working tirelessly day and night for many years, so you should buy a bottle of essential oil to take good care of yourself~"

"I dare not," he declined hurriedly.

We pushed each other, and I winked at Zhi Siqi, who took the golden hairpin with one hand and stuffed it into Zou Guang's arms, "It's what my sister gave you, so just accept it."

Zou Guang kowtowed in gratitude. I bowed my head, bent down and helped him up: "Father-in-law must be Daddy's man, right?"

He was horrified and knelt down again, his head buried in the ground, with the brim of his hat covering his face.

"Sister and I, Zou Guang was originally assigned to me by my father..."

"No, I didn't say anything. Father-in-law, please get up quickly."

Zou Guang stood up, still with his head down.

(I knew he was acting so guilty. This little eunuch must be the lackey that the dog father assigned to Zhi Siqi to monitor him and report his every move. Hum, I found out.)

"I just want my father-in-law to tell me in detail what he saw and heard today, especially to emphasize the hardship of my mother and I's life. It's not easy for us to earn some pocket money~"

"Yes!"

After watching them go away, I hurried back to the house. Yutuan was applying medicine to Yuyi with a cotton swab.

I ran towards Yuyi and hugged her: "My poor Yuyi baby~ You've been wronged~ Does it still hurt? Let me blow for you~"

"Hmph! The girl was just saying that our Yuyi has never been beaten since she was a child. It's really infuriating that such a big thing has been reduced to a small one!" Yutuan said in a bad tone.

"I'm fine. I just got slapped in the face. There's no need to be so pretentious. I'll be back to normal after a good night's sleep. Don't feel bad, girl." Yuyi held my hand and comforted me gently.

"Of course, this matter cannot be dismissed so hastily. Don't worry, Yuyi. I will definitely get back at you for this slap!"

"Girl! What do you need me to do?" Yu Tuan's eyes were clear but firm, and his tone was excited.

I put my head on Yuyi's knees and leaned in closer: "I need to think about this carefully. I originally wanted to use the itching powder to scare them, so that they would not act rashly and retreat when they saw difficulties. In the end, you suffered an unexpected disaster... Damn! Since someone can put stink bugs in my clothes, it means that they have some knowledge about stink bugs. Why didn't I think of this?"

"I see that Xiaohan knows so much about the camellia midge, but Miss Fang and Miss Ye seem to be completely unaware of it." Yuyi analyzed calmly.

"Could it be that Xiaohan is standing up for her master and taking revenge on our girl?" Yu Tuan asked curiously.

"I don't know. Isn't it said that Fang Juexia treats servants very badly? Besides, if Xiaohan wanted to show her loyalty, why didn't she tell her master about this?"

"If Miss Fang knew about this, then her acting skills are really great."

"From what I see, I feel that she is a brainless person. She relies on her family's noble status to bully others at will. That Ye Shi is just an empty shell who relies on the power of others."

"Yutuan, go get some silver and ask the imperial kitchen to give Ye Shi and Fang Juexia extra meals in the near future. Tell them that they were frightened by me and I apologized to them and helped them calm down. Oh, fish, shrimp, beef and mutton are indispensable, and some soup should be stewed with medicinal food: aconite, licorice, longan, astragalus..."

"Girl! If you keep talking, I'll get angry! You said you wanted to avenge Yu Yi! How can you avenge her like that? You're clearly repaying a favor!" Yu Tuan slammed the table angrily.

"You have to send flowers! Lotus flowers will do, or daffodils."

Yutuan turned his back and ignored me.

I couldn't help but laugh and explained, "These foods, if eaten too much, will cause acne. It's normal to have more acne during puberty. The main ingredient in the itching powder is cloves, which are cold flowers and counteract warm flowers like cloves. It's normal for children to have stomachaches and vomit occasionally."

"Hahaha, girl, why are you so cunning! I'm really impressed!" Yu Tuan clapped his hands and laughed.

"Girl, will we really not be discovered like this?" Yu Yi looked serious and worried.

"So, I need you to do something for me."

"What's up!"

"Spread the word that silver was dug out from Fang Juexia's pond."

"What?!" Yutuan and Yuyi said in unison.

"Hush, what are you two doing? Keep your voice down!"
