“Just by looking, if one can learn, that is also genius!” Mrs. Xia spoke like she was blowing rainbows.
“Right, sister is a genius!”
“My sister is the most amazing sister in the world!”
“Sister is invincible!”
“Sister is awesome!”
“Love sister!”
The five brothers also joined in, praising her one after another.
Xia Ningxing’s face turned red as she listened, feeling embarrassed and unworthy of such praise. She quickly interrupted them, “Alright, alright, let’s talk about serious things. Tomorrow, let’s go to the glass factory and order a batch of perfume bottles!”
To make perfume, you need containers.

The glass factory could customize these, and since there was such a factory in the city, there would be no need to go far.
Though Mrs. Xia agreed to the business venture, when it actually came time to start, she couldn’t help but sigh and said with some reservation, “Bao’er, even though I’ve agreed to the business, I don’t believe this will make money. So I will still go to work tomorrow. Your brothers will accompany you.”
In those days, three to five-year-olds were treated as if they were over ten, and those over ten were treated like adults, so Mrs. Xia felt at ease letting the brothers take Xia Ningxing with them.
“No problem.” Xia Ningxing nodded cutely, knowing that unless she truly made money, Mrs. Xia would never quit her job easily.
After finishing dinner, Xia Ningxing sat at the table, her pale little hands fished a pencil and notebook out of her backpack, and she began to draw the design for the perfume bottle.
The packaging of the perfume is also a crucial part!
It can account for up to forty percent of the customer’s attraction!
The dim, old-fashioned lightbulb gave off a weak glow, its warm, smoky-yellow light enveloping the little creature. She bit her pencil, slightly frowning, as if dissatisfied, then seemed to think of something, and her delicate features instantly burst into a smile. Her little hand moved swiftly across the paper.
Soon, a beautiful perfume bottle appeared on the paper.
Small and square, without any superfluous decoration, the bottle had a gradient purple body, luxurious yet youthful.
“Bao’er, it’s so late, hurry and sleep,” Mrs. Xia, who got up at night, saw her still sitting at the table and couldn’t help frowning, urging her, “Children need their sleep to grow; you can’t stay up late!”
“I know, mom.” Xia Ningxing had just finished drawing; she smiled at her with her pale, soft face and rubbed her slightly reddened eyes from staying up, yawned, and climbed into her little bed with tears induced from yawning.
Mrs. Xia, who had gotten up, lay down beside her, vigorously fanning with a bamboo fan, afraid that she would get too hot, her gaze filled with tenderness.
Outside the old house, frogs croaked.
Fireflies flitted around with their lanterns.
A good night’s sleep followed.
Early the next morning, Xia Ningxing and her five brothers took the design to the glass factory to order the perfume bottles.
After negotiating the price, they settled on fifty cents per bottle.
They ordered five hundred.
In about half a month, all would be delivered.
With the perfume containers secured, Xia Ningxing then brought her brothers to gather many ingredients for making perfume—various flowers, herbs, essential oils, and the like.
Being an ancient, handmade method, it required several steps to complete.
And then it needed to settle and sit still.
So by the time all the perfume bottles were delivered, the perfume still wasn’t ready.
It would take another three days.
When the three days passed, Xia Ningxing eagerly pulled her brothers to the cellar, her rosy cheeks filled with anticipation, “Brothers, the perfume is ready. Let’s go bottle it.”
“Let’s go, sister!” As soon as they heard this, the five brothers immediately dropped what they were doing, their faces alight with excitement, and pulled her to run into the cellar.
Afterward, they worked together to move ten barrels out from the cellar.
