Fragrance Returned

One is to ask Guo to pay attention to the aroma of cloves. It is necessary to distinguish whether it is the fragrance of honey and butter or her own fragrance.

Mrs. Guo looked at the string of honey-fat fragrance on Lilac's wrist and couldn't tell whether it was the fragrance of her body or the fragrance of honey-fat fragrance.

Thinking that the Ding family is so rich, a girl can actually wear the finest honey-fat fragrant beads.

There is another task...

Guo didn't know why the man and her mother-in-law asked her to do these two things. During this period, men have a particularly bad temper and get angry if they ask more questions.

Mrs. Dong seemed to have accidentally smiled with Mrs. Xun, Mrs. Yang, and said, Uncle Ding was lucky. He found two honey-fat incense sticks in the mountains in his early years. They were both rare and top-quality. Half of them were given away and half of them were sold to my incense shop. I can’t bear to sell the jewelry and perfume, they are all for my own use.”

Mrs. Xunda smiled and said, Cousin Ding also gave my master a top-quality honey-fat fragrance pendant, which he treasures. Today the house is scented with honey-fat fragrance, right? It smells better than agarwood. My cousin-in-law gave me the honey-fat fragrance. I’m not willing to use the fragrant powder yet.”

Ding Xiang also noticed that Mrs. Guo was coming closer to smell her body.

This beaded string was polished by her grandfather with the remaining half of a stick of red nectar, and she wore it this time.

Ding Xiang said a few words to Guo and shook off her hand, then went over to hold Ding Zhen's hand and joked quietly.

Ding Zhen's face turned red. It was the first time she saw so many ladies and she felt a little frightened.

After a while, there were more and more guests.

Except for Mrs. Xun and several high-status ladies who stayed in the living room, the other female family members went to the side room to chat and laugh, and Ding Xiang also followed.

The seats in the hall are reserved for noble and older ladies.

Mrs. Dong originally wanted to hold Ding Xiang back, but seeing that Ding Xiang and Ding Zhen were happy, she let her go.

Not long after, Tao Jing and several other little girls came over to play with Ding Xiang. Ding Xiang introduced Ding Zhen to them, and the other little girls went and chatted quietly.

Who gets engaged, who gets the honor of being a concubine in the palace, who gets first place at the plum blossom banquet held next month...

Mrs. Wang's mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, and Mrs. Min's acquaintances were talking together, and Mrs. Guo also came over. She seemed to know Mrs. Zhang very well, holding her hand and calling her sister-in-law.

Mrs. Zhang knew in her heart that she was one of the bad guys who changed children, so she shook off her hand and walked away, but she pressed it against her like a dog-skin plaster.

Haiou has been told by his wife to keep an eye on Mrs. Xun San and not allow her to do anything inappropriate, especially not to get close to Sister Xiang.

But Mrs. Xun San and Mrs. Ding were talking normally, and it was hard for her to interfere.

Suddenly, the hall became more lively, and the talking and laughter became louder.

Someone said, It's Princess Dongyang and Lord Xiangxiang who are here.

Some people who wanted to make friends with Princess Dongyang went out to see her as a gift.

Zhang and Dingxiang didn't want to see Princess Dongyang the most right now, so they didn't move.

Mr. Min stood up and said with a smile, Brothers and sisters, Princess Dongyang is our cousin and a relative. Let's go see her and say hello.

Ding Xiang glanced at Min. You are not smart when you should be smart, and you are smarter than anyone else when you shouldn't be smart.

Ms. Zhang refused and said, Cousin-in-law, go ahead. I'm too timid to go.

Mrs. Min smiled and went to the hall to salute Princess Dongyang Wanfu.

The hall was already full of people, surrounded by beads and jade, piles of gold and jade, and all kinds of strong fragrances filled the whole room.

Mrs. Dong and Princess Dongyang were sitting on the Arhat bed, and Xunxiang was leaning on Princess Dongyang's arms.

Not long after Dong Yihe returned to Beijing, he was working as a casualty and had not made friends with many aristocratic families. Except for Princess Dongyang, no royal relatives came.

Among the people in the hall, the one with the highest status is Princess Dongyang. There were several old princes and heads of ladies from distinguished families, some family members of military officers, and a few family members of civil servants like Mrs. Xun.

After Mrs. Min presented the gift to Princess Dongyang, Mrs. Guo on the side smiled and said, Mrs. Ding is a relative. Why didn't she come out to see the princess as a gift?

Princess Dongyang looked a little grim.

It stands to reason that Xun Qiandai and Xun Qiansong are separated by the same belly, so the relationship between Princess Dongyang and Guo's sister-in-law should not be very close.

But before, Princess Dongyang, Xun Shi and Xun Qiansong were all members of the Gao Feng and Su families. In addition, the Guo family was the best at flattering, so the relationship between Princess Dongyang and the Guo family was actually closer than that of Mrs. Xun, who was a serious sister-in-law.

Min smiled and said honestly, The Ding family members are too scared to come.

Mrs. Dong smiled and explained, Ms. Zhang grew up in the countryside and was scared to hear the word 'princess', let alone see her in person.

Everyone laughed.

Princess Dongyang said, I am not a tiger. Isn't it scary? My mother-in-law is so honest, but that girl Dingxiang is so smart that I don't know who she followed.

The dismissive attitude made Mrs. Dong frown.

She said, Xiangxiang followed her biological grandmother. I heard from my Marquis that among the sisters in the Dong family, the eldest aunt and the third aunt are the smartest.

She made a pun, and everyone present thought she was talking about her third aunt Dong Ruyue.

Xunxiang in Princess Dongyang's arms curled her lips.

Mrs. Guo smiled very attentively and said, Mrs. Ding is also my cousin-in-law. I will go and invite her out. Her Royal Highness the Princess is gentle and virtuous, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

She quickly went to the side room and called Ding, Haha, sister-in-law, Princess Dongyang wants to see you. Don't be nervous. Although Princess Dongyang is the legitimate princess, she is the most loved by the emperor and the queen, but she is easy-going and tight.

While talking, he helped Mrs. Zhang arrange her clothes. She looked very nervous and whispered, Ouch, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...

The smell of lilac was so great that she glared at Mrs. Guo, squeezed Mrs. Zhang's hand and comforted her, Mom, this is my uncle's house. There is no need to be afraid of anyone.

Zhang was already afraid of meeting the royal family, and knowing that Ding Xiang was Dongyang's biological daughter made her feel conflicted. Seeing Guo like this made her even more afraid.

Zhang didn't want Dingxiang to follow, so Dingxiang took her hand and went together.

As soon as she reached the door of the hall, Mrs. Guo laughed in a high voice and said, Oh, Your Highness, I have invited Cousin Ding for you.

There was silence in the room, and all eyes turned to Mrs. Zhang.

Zhang had never seen this posture before, and her body was trembling a little.

She was helped by Guo to Princess Dongyang.

Princess Dongyang was wearing gorgeous palace makeup and was secretly unhappy. Mrs. Guo was really troublesome. Who wants to see this woman?

Mrs. Zhang knelt down and said with a trembling voice, I have met Her Highness the Princess.

Mrs. Guo chuckled and said, Cousin, don't be nervous, there is nothing to be nervous about.

Fake Xunxiang covered her mouth with a handkerchief and still laughed out loud. She shook her head while laughing, looking at a country bumpkin. My father and brother praised Dingxiang to the sky. How could it be better to have such an ignorant mother?

There were a few chuckles elsewhere.

Princess Dongyang looked at Mrs. Zhang up and down, frowned slightly, and said with a smile, We are all relatives, so there is no need to be nervous. Haha, with your temper, it is not easy to teach a girl like Ding Xiaoyatou.
