After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, Tang Qiyue first sorted out the soap that Xie Mingzhu wanted, and then asked the housekeeper of the mansion to send it to the palace gate, where Chunzhi was waiting.

Then she was about to go to the shop to take a look, but she avoided the servants and was picked up by Xie Changjin.

"What are you doing?" She was startled and couldn't help but pat the other person's shoulder, with a gleam in her eyes.

Xie Changjin looked sullen and said nothing. He kicked open the bedroom door and gently placed her on the bed.

If he carried her to another room, Tang Qiyue would have run away no matter what, but she didn't know why Xie Changjin suddenly had such a big emotional outburst.

"Say something, what are you doing? Are you angry and want to hit me?" Tang Qiyue quickly grabbed his neck and prevented him from getting up.

Xie Changjin half-knelt and looked at her, pursed his lips and said, "I won't beat you." He didn't even have time to feel heartache.

When Tang Qiyue wanted to ask more questions, she felt her trouser legs being slowly pulled up, and a pair of large hands gently stroked her knees.

"Does it hurt?"

As Xie Changjin asked the question, Tang Qiyue saw her red and swollen knees.

It was strange, how come she didn't feel any pain when she came back from the palace just now? Also, how did Xie Changjin know that her knee was swollen?

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xie Changjin thought she was in so much pain that she couldn't speak. The pain in his eyes seemed to be overflowing. He immediately found some medicine and treated her knee carefully.

Tang Qiyue stared at his actions in a daze, without stopping him. Her heart felt as sweet as if it were smeared with honey.

After treating the wound, Xie Changjin carefully helped her put down her trouser legs.

"How do you know my knee is swollen?" He was so angry just now that she thought she had done something unforgivable and that he was going to hit someone.

"I noticed you weren't walking very smoothly."

"Oh, Prince Jin is really observant." Tang Qiyue couldn't help but peck him on the cheek.

Xie Changjin curled his lips in satisfaction, "Next time a palace maid comes to invite you, just ask the emperor for two knee pads, okay? Don't be silly and hurt your knees by kneeling again."

"I know." Tang Qiyue curled her lips, "But Eunuch Fu'an came so quickly and I was worried, so I didn't notice these things this time."

After the two talked for a while, Xie Changjin rode out of the city and went to the military camp to continue training.

Just when Tang Qiyue was about to lie down to rest for a while, she saw Song Wanyu holding Zhao Bao's hand, looking anxious and hurried.

"What's wrong?" Her heart immediately tightened.

"Qiyue, why didn't you tell me such a big thing? How could our Zhaobao be bullied by some rich girl? She even complained. Did you suffer in the palace? I saw that Ah Jin was furious when he left."

Angry? Didn't she just calm him down?

Before Tang Qiyue could ask, she saw Zhaobao running over with tears in his eyes, holding onto her waist, "Mother, Zhaobao is scared."

He was still young and didn't understand much, but he knew that his mother was being bullied.

Tang Qiyue held the baby in her arms distressedly, scratched his nose and said, "Mom, it's okay, don't be afraid."

Song Wanyu also breathed a sigh of relief, "Looks like you're really okay, otherwise I would be worried to death."

"The Lu family has made a big fool of themselves today."

Tang Qiyue was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

"You don't know yet, you just came back from the palace, right? Just now, Censor Lu was fined a year's salary, and his daughter was ordered not to go out for a year and stay in the mansion to cultivate herself."

"So serious?" Tang Qiyue didn't expect that Emperor Yongqing's punishment would be so severe. Not being able to go out for a year, isn't that a bit too long?

Song Wanyu sat next to her, "It's nothing. Some people were dissatisfied with Lu Pingting earlier, because her father is the censor, no one dares to offend her. But your majesty is the emperor, and he knows everything under the emperor's rule."

"Today's punishment is a continuation of the previous one, so don't be too stressed."

Tang Qiyue didn't have any idea at all, she just sighed and said, "I know."

"The shop has only been open for two days?" Song Wanyu thought of something else, "Is the amount of bath soap enough? Do you want me to arrange two maids to help you?"

She just takes care of Zhaobao every day and never asks what Tang Qiyue is busy with.

Tang Qiyue shook her head. "It depends on the sales after the opening. If the demand is high, I will consider opening a small soap workshop in Beijing."

"It's a good idea to open a workshop. I have a lot of land here. You can choose whatever you want when the time comes." Song Wanyu said immediately, "Don't be polite with me." In order not to put pressure on Tang Qiyue's status, Song Wanyu has always called herself "I" in front of Tang Shan since she found her son. She rarely calls herself "Madam". In fact, she would rather call her "mother".

Tang Qiyue felt warm in her heart and nodded, "I'm still considering this matter. Right now I'm wondering if the soap I make will sell after the shop opens."

"It will definitely sell, trust me." Song Wanyu said seriously, "You know how much those rich ladies want a bar of soap nowadays."

"I know." After all, people were blocking the door of the shop.

"That's good to know." After saying this, Song Wanyu took Zhao Bao to visit the garden.

After seeing the two people out, Tang Qiyue closed the door and immediately went into the space. She had to count how many bars of soap she had made during this period of time.

The newly researched milk soap is 20 yuan. There is no way around it because milk is difficult to handle. The other mint and honeysuckle soaps are both 100 yuan.

There are a total of 220 bars of soap, which should be enough to sell for several days.

At this time, Tang Qiyue had never expected that the purchasing power of the people would buy out all her stock on the opening day.

She went to see the growing tomatoes again and found that after one night and half a day, the tomato branches had already produced fruits. They would probably be ripe tomorrow, and then she could make tomato sauce!

There are stars outside the window, and I have a good night's sleep.

Early in the morning, Tang Qiyue came out of the house carrying a small basket of red tomatoes, and Zhao Bao followed her happily.

Because his mother said she would make him something delicious today, so he couldn't sleep in.

Arriving at the kitchen, Tang Qiyue asked the housekeeper to bring a dozen big and good potatoes. She asked the cook in the mansion to help peel the potatoes and cut them into the long strips she wanted and put them aside for later use.

There was no starch here, so she could only take out some starch from the space, and no one else suspected it.

Song Wanyu looked at the tomato and asked, "Why are these red fruits so big? Are they new fruits?"

Tang Qiyue was surprised. Why did she remember that there were tomatoes here? But looking at Song Wanyu's surprised expression, it seemed as if she didn't recognize it at all. Could it be that she remembered it wrong?
