"You want to pay your respects to the princess?" Green Qiao was surprised.
Lin Yuansheng said, "Indeed, now that I know the princess is here, as her subject, how could I not pay my respects? I will have to trouble you to inform her."
Lü Qiao said, "Then there's no need. The princess is just out for a chat today and has no intention of meeting any minister. Besides, this elegant teahouse is for women. Even if Lord Lin or the Marquis came, they wouldn't be allowed to go inside."
If Lin Yuansheng were allowed in today, Song Pingping's women's teahouse would probably have to close down, which is obviously impossible.
Besides, Qin Yizhen didn't want to see Lin Yuansheng either.
When Lin Yuansheng heard that even Cheng Yan couldn't get into the teahouse, he didn't make any further demands. However, he glanced at Zhou Ning beside him and said, "In that case, I won't disturb the princess any longer. But since my wife is here, she should go and pay her respects to the princess and then support Miss Song."
Lüqiao added, "That's not necessary. When the princess learned that you two had arrived, she instructed me that Madam Lin is pregnant and should not wander around. Please understand, Your Highness, and let her go back to rest."
Lin Yuansheng hadn't expected Qin Yizhen to have something else to say that also stumped Zhou Ning. He frowned slightly, but since he had already been rejected, he didn't press the matter. So he said, "Then my wife and I thank Your Highness for your understanding. We will take our leave now."
He couldn't get in, and neither could Zhou Ning. There was no point in staying and pestering her any longer; it would only make Qin Yizhen dislike him even more. So, it was better to just obey and leave.
Lin Yuansheng helped Zhou Ning back onto the carriage. Before leaving, he said to Song Pingping, "Pingping, I will come to see you another day."
After saying these words, he did not wait for Song Pingping's reply, but stepped onto the carriage and entered the carriage.
The carriage slowly turned around and headed back. As Lü Qiao watched, she almost couldn't help but spit.
What a jinx! Calling someone his "brother"? Who's his sister?
Song Pingping's face was somber. She squinted as she watched the carriage disappear into the distance. A cold glint flashed in her eyes, but it only lasted a few breaths before she lowered her eyes and stared at her hands.
A person like Lin Yuansheng is probably useless in this world, except for being disgusting and scheming. Therefore, it's better to send him to hell quickly...
"Miss Song?"
"Hmm?" Song Pingping came back to her senses, looked up at Lü Qiao, and when she opened her eyes again, the coldness in her eyes was gone, leaving only normalcy.
Lü Qiao said, "Don't take this to heart. I meant what I said earlier. Since he wronged you, whether you forgive him or not is up to you. If he bothers you again, just tell me."
Lü Qiao also resented people like Lin Yuansheng, but since she was out in public, she represented the princess's face and naturally wouldn't judge someone's character. Therefore, she could only speak on the point that "whether Song Pingping forgives him or not is her own choice," indicating her willingness to stand up for Song Pingping.
Song Pingping understood and thanked her, saying, "Thank you, I understand."
If Lü Qiao hadn't come out today, she wouldn't know how to deal with those two unlucky people, Lin Yuansheng and Zhou Ning.
Letting them in is definitely not an option, but driving them away is also inappropriate.
"It's nothing, nothing at all. The princess heard they were coming and that's why she sent me out to see them. Now that they've left, I'll go and report back to the princess."
After saying these words, Lü Qiao walked away with light steps. Song Pingping was also a little exhausted and was thinking of going back to rest. However, she saw that the King of the Carriages was coming again, so she had to stop and wait in place.
There's no way around it; making money in this world is never easy. In order to give the princess a larger share of the money, she has to be extra careful!
Thinking of this, Song Pingping's smile became more genuine.
Lü Qiao returned to the courtyard with light steps and went to see Qin Yizhen.
Qin Yizhen had just finished a game of chess and asked someone to bring her water to wash her hands so she could apply some perfume. She carefully selected a lotus-scented perfume and asked someone to try it.
"Is the person gone?"
"Your Highness, they have already been sent back."
"That's good." Qin Yizhen nodded and didn't say anything more about it. She turned to talk to Lady Changting, "This perfume is very well made. The scent is light and not strong, but if you smell it closely, you can smell a faint fragrance. When the wind blows, it fills your sleeves. It's excellent."
"That's right, I'm a rough man, but I like it very much."
The maidservant beside her smiled and said, "This is a perfumed balm that the master specially commissioned to be made. If the princess and the ladies like it, then the master's efforts have not been in vain."
Song Pingping has indeed put in a lot of effort for the business of Fengya Xianju. Not to mention the elegant arrangement of the courtyard, even the snacks and tea were specially selected by her. Furthermore, the perfumes and balms were also specially made by her, and only Fengya Xianju has them.
"Madam Song has indeed gone to great lengths."
"What's a little effort compared to that? All I hope is that you ladies will enjoy it and come here often. If you ladies come often, even if it takes ten times the effort, I'll still think it's worth it."
Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.
"He's a good talker."
"The master has hired several well-mannered teachers to teach us. However, we are not very knowledgeable, so please forgive us if we do anything wrong. We would be very grateful if you could give us some pointers."
His humble and eager-to-learn words drew another round of laughter, and everyone said they would definitely point out any mistakes.
Qin Yizhen had been sitting in the elegant and secluded residence for almost two hours. She was tired from playing chess and had eaten a lot of tea and snacks. In addition, the noise from the large number of people gave her a headache.
He endured it for a long time, but finally couldn't bear it any longer and got up to leave.
"Gentlemen, I am feeling a bit tired, so I will head back now."
"The princess is leaving already?" The group had spoken quite a bit with the princess and found her to be kind and approachable, which emboldened them.
Qin Yizhen nodded: "I'm a little tired."
Hearing that she was tired, no one dared to stop her and could only watch her leave. Some people tried to get up to see her off, but she refused.
Song Pingping personally escorted Qin Yizhen out and helped her into the carriage.
As the carriage drove back, Qin Yizhen couldn't help but lean back on the soft pillow and have Lü Qiao massage her head. Finally, she said with some distress, "It's certainly more lively with more people, but it's too noisy."
She likes lively places, but she also prefers quiet. She can't stand this noise; it's too noisy, and after a while, it gives her a headache.
"If Song Pingping doesn't earn more money for me, I'll make her pay!"
Qin Yizhen had no idea that this matter would be so tiring. If she had known it would be like this, she would never have agreed to Song Pingping's request, and she would not have wanted to earn this money. She didn't need it, so why bother herself?
Seeing that she was indeed exhausted, Lüqiao felt sorry for her and was also somewhat dissatisfied with Song Pingping. She immediately chimed in, "Yes, yes, if Miss Song doesn't earn more money, this servant will give her a beating!"
