006 What year is today

Jingshan, Ruyin Temple.

In the hall, a pair of young masters and servants knelt in front of the Buddha statue, with their eyes closed, hands folded, and making a wish.

This pair of master and servants are the famous Miss Lin from the Shou'an Hou family, and her personal maid.

After making the wish, the maid Xiaoqing suggested, "Miss, let's sign up."

Lin Xiuwan shook her head and didn't look at the signboard in front of her. Although for some reasons, she would come to the temple to burn incense every month, she actually didn't believe it.

After giving the incense money, the master and servant left the hall, walked to the open space outside, stood in front of a railing, and from here, you can see most of the capital. Jingsheng is very good.

The mountain wind was a little strong, Lin Xiuwan wrapped her cloak tightly and stared into the distance, not knowing what she was thinking.

The graceful figure stood in the wind, revealing an indescribable sense of loneliness.

The maid Xiaoqing, who was standing behind, saw that her lady showed such a look again, felt aroused, and hurriedly said, "Miss, did you make a wish to the Bodhisattva just now and want to find a good man as soon as possible?"

After a while, Lin Xiuwan said, "I am not as eccentric as you." But she didn't say what she made.

Seeing that she had returned to normal, Xiaoqing was delighted and said, "There are many mosquitoes in the mountains, so I'll apply some jade dew to you." As she said that, she took out a white porcelain bottle from the bag.

"The wind is so strong here, so how can there be mosquitoes."

Lin Xiuwan said, glanced at the jade dew in her hand, and felt aroused in her heart, and asked, "Last time I asked you to inquire about the origin of this jade dew, have you inquire?"

Xiaoqing said, "I've found out that Yuqinglu is the unique formula of that business. The business is the Chen family's industry."

"Which Chen family?"

"A few months ago, the wife helped you find a husband, and the second son of the Chen family whom you most like is the Chen family."

"Oh." Lin Xiuwan remembered.

Xiaoqing asked in confusion, "Miss, the Chen family is a scholarly family, and has been a Jinshi for several generations. Mr. Chen passed the provincial examination at a young age. I heard that his appearance and character are also of top quality. You didn't even meet him, so why did you reject it?"

Lin Xiuwan said, "What do you know? The ups and downs of the officialdom are the most dangerous. Mr. Chen, I heard that he is honest and has such a personality, is not suitable for being in the officialdom. If he really gets married, his future will be uncertain."

Xiaoqing suddenly said, "Oh, I thought the lady fell in love with the young master at that time."

Lin Xiuwan looked into the distance and said lightly, "In this era, how dare we women like us? Duke Shen is the head of the nobles and the founding duke, and hereditary. The young master's reputation is also good. In summary, he is the best husband I can find."

Xiaoqing has become accustomed to the way the lady speaks, so she doesn't think it's surprising.

Then he remembered something and said, "By the way, the Chen family's business has a new product in two days, saying it is called soap. It is used as perfume for cleaning the body..."

“Soap?”

Lin Xiuwan's heart was shocked and turned to look at her.

Xiaoqing was a little uneasy when the lady saw it. She didn't know what she said wrongly, so she asked in a low voice, "Yes, are there any problems?"

Lin Xiuwan withdrew her gaze, shook her head, and said in a very light voice, "Maybe I'm thinking too much."

Xiaoqing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Miss, it's time to go down the mountain. It's going to be dark later."

"Let's go."

Lin Xiuwan took a look at the capital not far away and turned around and left.

…………

A luxurious carriage was driving down the mountain.

The coachman has excellent skills. Lin Xiuwan and Xiaoqing, who are sitting in the carriage, don’t feel the big bumps.

Suddenly, she said, "Give me that jade dew."

Xiaoqing handed over the white porcelain bottle.

Lin Xiuwan pulled out the cork and leaned over and smelled it. It was clearly the smell of flower dew.

When she smelled this smell for the first time, she felt a little strange, but the name was different, and she thought that the name of Hualushui was invented in this era.

Until just now, Xiaoqing said that the business was about to start selling soap again. This made her a little concerned.

She didn't know when soap was invented in history, so she was not sure.

If only you have a cell phone, you will find it out after searching.

Lin Xiuwan couldn't help but sigh. It had been half a year since she traveled to this world, and she had barely adapted to the days when she didn't have a cell phone.

I remember that at the beginning, every morning when she woke up, she would habitually touch her phone next to her pillow. Every time she felt empty, she would wake up. It was like a nightmare.

It has been half a year, and everything in her previous life has been gone, as if it was a dream she had.

At this time, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Xiaoqing asked the driver outside, "What's wrong?"

The coachman said, "There is a car in front of him blocking the way."

Then I heard a young man shouting loudly, "Is it in the car ahead, but Miss Lin?"

The coachman scolded, "Since you know whose carriage is this, you still dare to block the way?"

Although Shou'an Hou, the uncle of the current dynasty, did not have real power, such a status was not affordable to anyone.

Xiaoqing was a little angry, thinking that someone who was not very eye-catching actually came to block his lady's carriage. He lifted the curtain and looked at it. He saw a pair of young masters and servants, who were very handsome and there was no obvious sign on the carriage, so he couldn't tell which one was from.

The young man said excitedly, "I recently made a poem and wanted Miss Lin to taste it."

Another shameless person.

Xiaoqing felt a little impatient. Since the lady's works were circulated, it was only famous that it had shocked the capital. There were many such young men who brought so-called masterpieces to let the lady see them.

Most of these people were sent away by the servants of the Marquis' Mansion. Occasionally, some of them were not easy to drive away directly, and the lady never looked at these people with a direct look.

However, I am now blocked here. Judging from this attitude, I will probably not let them leave if I don’t finish reading his lyrics.

Xiaoqing said patiently, "Miss has just blown the wind and has suffered a little cold, so it is not convenient to get off the bus. Just read it directly, the lady can hear it."

The young man immediately started to recite, "When will the bright moon come? I will ask the blue sky with wine-"

With a bang, the sound of things falling to the ground came from the carriage.

Xiaoqing was about to go back to the carriage to see what was going on, but when she saw the curtain lifted up, the lady had already walked out, staring at the boy tightly, breathing a little unsteady.

"Miss, are you okay?"

Xiaoqing had never seen such a strong emotion on the lady's face. She seemed shocked, excited, and unbelievable. Her body was trembling slightly, and she was very worried and supported her.

I heard the boy continue to recite, "I don't know what year it will be tonight in the palace in the sky."
