The Lin Family’s Third Madam Lin blushed and asked, “Is the effect of this thing really that good?”

Young Madam Wang subconsciously rubbed her sore waist and said with a red face, “Really, I’m not lying to you.”

With the Wang family’s Eldest Young Madam’s guarantee, the Lin family’s Third Young Madam was relieved. She also bought two bottles.

In just a few days, a magical essential oil from Princess Ding’an’s Liuxiang

Pavilion had spread in the courtyards of the influential families. The Liuxiang Pavilion’s essential oil was quickly sold out and there was not much of the soap left.

As a result, the madams who could not buy anything looked for Jian Qingqing. However, they could not find her, so they could only send an invitation.

Hearing this, Jian Qingqing was surprised for a moment. Were the people in the Capital so rich?

However, they had money, and she was happy to earn it.

By now, the maidservants were already very skilled in making essential oil, and their efficiency was much higher. Every day, Liuxiang Pavilion’s turnover was more than 3,000 taels.

As for perfume, she did not make much progress. Although she had already made the first successful case, she did not gain much experience. She still wasted a lot of materials when he made more later. She could only make a little bit, and it could only fill one bottle.

Jian Qingqing did not plan to sell this bottle. She had other uses for it.

She brought perfume and some essential oils and soap to the palace, planning to give them to the Empress.

However, she did not expect to see Liu Jiaojiao in the Empress’s Palace. Jian Qingqing nodded at her and Liu Jiaojiao smiled back.

When the Empress saw her, she smiled in surprise. “Qingqing has always been busy, why did you suddenly come today?”

Jian Qingqing smiled. “No matter how busy I am, I still have to come and visit the Empress. I made a new toy and specially sent it to you.”

“You’re really good at coaxing people,” the Empress teased. “I just heard from Lady Liu that you’ve opened a Liuxiang Pavilion? You’re specialized in selling essential oils? I heard that the business is quite good.”

“It’s just for fun,” Jian Qingqing said in a tender voice. “I made a bottle of perfume for you. It’s something that no one else has. Do you want to try it?”

The Empress took it, opened it, and sniffed it. She smiled and said, “It’s really not bad. It’s very fragrant. Qingqing’s hands are really skillful.”

“She’s really skillful,” Liu Jiaojiao said. “I feel much better after using the essential oil.”

Princess Anning was surprised. “Really? Qingqing, give me a bottle too! I want to go and try too!”

Jian Qingqing took out the gift box, which contained ten bottles of essential oil, and said, “I’ve prepared them for you, take them.”

The Empress took a look and smiled. “Qingqing is quite generous. Alright, you guys go and play. Children shouldn’t listen to our conversation.”

Princess Anning stuck out her tongue mischievously and pulled Liu Jiaojiao and Jian Qingqing up to run out, “Goodbye, Mother!”

They went to the pavilion in the imperial garden and sat down. Princess Anning could not wait to ask, “Qingqing, what have you been doing outside these days?”

Jian Qingqing smiled and told her what had happened these days.

Princess Anning listened with a fascinated expression. Her heart was filled with yearning for the outside of the palace. Liu Jiaojiao also listened with great interest.

After hearing this, Princess Anning said with a depressed face, “I also want to go out of the palace to play. I’ve never left the palace in my life.”

Jian Qingqing had no choice. Rules were rules. She could only comfort her,

“There isn’t much fun outside, just a lot of people..”
