Chapter 76 Attracting Butterfly Fragrance

Back at Qingzhu Xiaozhu, Shen Qiqi was still thinking about Gu Tingshu's words. She really couldn't think of what he wanted, but it couldn't be bought with money.

He already has power, and if there is anything else he wants in the world, he can only have the supreme position.

But he's not the kind of ambitious person, so there's nothing he can't buy.

"Mommy, do you think there is anything in this world that money can't buy?"

Aunt He brought a handkerchief over and wiped her face. After hearing this, she smiled and said, "The girl is young and has never been in the world. It's not surprising that she doesn't know this."

"There are countless things that money can't buy in this world. Just the word "love" can sum up countless things."

"This is the bond between us as master and servant, which cannot be bought with money."

Aunt He taught her carefully, but Shen Qiqi still seemed to understand. After listening, she thought about it carefully and said "oh" for a long time, but she still didn't understand.

Seeing the confused look in her eyes, Grandma He shook her head and laughed, "If you can't think clearly, just forget it. You will understand it when you are older."

Shen Qiqi nodded, handed over the handkerchief, and took out the storybook with her backhand.

She was so calm that she couldn't stop reading it. By the time she collected the notebook, the sun had already set.

"Girl, the eldest young master said that he can't come over for dinner tonight, so he wants you to eat more."

She felt relieved that he didn't come over to eat before, but now that he couldn't come, she felt an indescribable loss in her heart.

She responded in a low voice. She really couldn't muster any energy, and her appetite was also not good. She only ate half of the usual amount.

Nanny He brought in some pastries. She would usually eat a few pieces no matter what, but now she didn't eat any.

"Mommy, I don't have a nap today, and I want to rest now."

There's still an hour before bedtime, so I'll go to bed now. I think I'm really exhausted today.

"No one is waiting in the house, you all can go out."

She still doesn't sleep well now, so she just wakes up on her own, so why bother adding one or two more people.

"Girl, it's better to leave someone in the house to take care of you."

"No need, Mom, I want to sleep alone."

She was so persistent that Nanny He stopped trying to persuade her. She made the bed and unwrapped her clothes, then closed the window and left.

"Girl, the old slave is at the door. If anything happens, girl, just call out."

Shen Qiqi didn't want to turn off the lights when she was sleeping alone. She leaned against the bed and felt really not sleepy.

She doesn't want to think about anything now, she just wants to be in a daze by herself.

So many things happened these days, just a few months were more exciting than her previous fifteen years.

After these things, she obviously felt that she had changed a lot, but she couldn't tell exactly where she had changed.

She sat leaning against the head of the bed until her body became sore and numb, and then she felt a little sleepy.

After lying down and staring at the flickering candlelight, she gradually fell asleep.

For the next few days, Gu Tingshu left early and returned late. Shen Qiqi went to Changfeng Pavilion several times, but returned without success.

While the sun was still setting, she sat in the yard with her book in her arms, watching the golden treasures fluttering with butterflies.

There were no butterflies in the yard originally, but Jinbao Yinbao was not very happy when he saw her, so he went to find a lot of them and came back.

They don’t know where they found them, but these butterflies are as big as a palm, colorful and beautiful.

Seeing butterflies flying around but not leaving the yard, Shen Qiqi was really curious and waved Jinbao over.

"Jinbao, why don't these butterflies fly out of this yard?"

There are no boundaries here, and there aren't enough flowers. It's really strange that the butterflies don't leave.

"Girl, I have sprinkled a lot of fragrant powder in this yard, which is the most attractive to these butterflies. As long as the fragrance does not dissipate, these butterflies will not leave."

Shen Qiqi put the book on her knees and stretched out her hand, "Do you still have the powder?"

Jinbao dug into her arms a few times, took out a finger-sized bottle, and carefully poured some into her palm.

"Girl, spread the scented powder like this, then raise your hand and shake it a few times, and those butterflies will be attracted by the scent."

It's said to be a fragrant powder, but it doesn't smell too strong, just a light fragrance.

She really couldn't believe that these pollen could attract butterflies, but after waving her hands as Jinbao said, several butterflies actually flew towards her following the scent.

She put her palms up on the table, fearing to scare away the butterflies, so she froze and did not dare to move.

When Gu Tingshu came in, she was staring at the butterfly in her palm, and she didn't even notice him walking up to her.

He smelled of travel dust, and when he got closer, the smell of powder was washed away, and the butterflies flapped their wings and flew away.

Shen Qiqi looked up at him, as if she couldn't believe it. She blinked and saw that he was still there, then she pursed her lips and smiled sweetly.

"Cousin, are you done?"

"I'm going to Ningzhou tomorrow. I'll come over to stay with you today."

Shen Qiqi didn't come for several days, and when she came, she said she was going on a long trip. Shen Qiqi was really unhappy.

The raised corners of her mouth gradually flattened, and finally dropped like a capsized boat.

She took her hand away from the table and wiped it with a handkerchief.

Her happiness and anger were written all over her face, and now her entire body was filled with unhappiness.

Gu Tingshu sat down opposite her, took her handkerchief and dipped it in some tea to wipe it clean for her.

"I'll try to come back as soon as possible. If you feel bored, you can go to Yuntai Mountain to have a look."

"The flowers are blooming all over there now, and there will be countless butterflies flying. I think you will like it."

There is a large flower field deep in the valley of Yuntai Mountain, and there are hot springs in it, so flowers bloom all year round.

However, the flowers are at their peak in May and June, when there are the most butterflies and the scenery is most beautiful.

Yuntai Mountain is a long way away. If she goes out, she will definitely stay there for the night. She really doesn't want to go there just for herself.

"Let's go again if we have the opportunity in the future. My cousin has all the people, carriages and horses ready for this trip?"

"I am going to Ningzhou for a private visit. It should not be too ostentatious. The prince and I are going together."

The last time I went out with so many people, I almost died. Now there are only two of us. What will we do if we encounter gangsters again?

Shen Qiqi bit her lip, raised her eyes and looked at him again and again, but hesitated to speak.

"Just say what you want to say." Gu Tingshu put away the veil and patted her hand.

He took away another handkerchief, and I don’t know how many there were now. If he took it away again, she might have to embroider her eyes.

Shen Qiqi looked back and wrung her hands together, "Cousin, please bring more people with you."

"The journey is long and we don't know how dangerous it will be. It will be safer to bring some people with us."

"Others don't know the purpose of our trip. It will be more secretive if we don't take anyone with us."

"I knew you would be worried, so I came over to talk to you."

Having said this, what else could Shen Qiqi say, she could only respond in a dull voice.

"There are so many women in the capital, you should make friends with a few like-minded ones instead of just staying in the house every day."

Thank you for the small ticket
