The Prime Minister Seduced Me to have Babies!-Chapter 564: Mockery

Yun Jiao thought for a moment, "I’ll go over and check again tomorrow. If it’s truly better, there’s no need to take the decoction; just finish the powder I made."

Lin Shuo nodded.

Then Jiang Youzhi suggested, "What’s the fun in staying indoors? Why don’t the three of us go for a walk? Although there are plum blossoms here, we can’t smell their fragrance."

Yun Jiao glanced in the direction of the Princess, shook her head, and whispered, "This plum blossom banquet was organized specifically for you by the Princess. If you focus on accompanying me, wouldn’t that be letting her down? You and Brother Lin should go and do what you need to; don’t worry about me."

The Princess intentionally organized this banquet just to help Jiang Youzhi get acquainted with the aristocratic young men of the Capital City and quickly establish himself in this circle, didn’t she?

Lin Shuo laughed, "Doctor Gu truly is a clear-hearted, intelligent person."

He pulled Jiang Youzhi along, "Come on, Sanlang, let me introduce you to some friends."

Jiang Youzhi wasn’t interested in dealing with these aristocratic young men at all, nor did he wish to leave Yun Jiao alone. But as Yun Jiao said, he couldn’t let down the Princess’s good intentions.

He hesitated, wanting to leave and yet not wanting to.

Just then, Yang Ying came over, first glanced at Jiang Youzhi, then at Lin Shuo, before timidly speaking to Yun Jiao, "I’m from the Yan Family." She pointed towards where the Yang Family was, "That’s my grandaunt."

A few days ago, Yun Jiao had played cards at the same table with the Yang Family and fed the Princess together, so naturally, she recognized them.

Yang Ying said, "Those young ladies are calling you over to play."

Yun Jiao smiled at Jiang Youzhi, "Now you can feel at ease."

Lin Shuo laughed as he led Jiang Youzhi away.

Yun Jiao followed Yang Ying over to Yan Pei and the others.

As soon as she got near, a young lady with an unfriendly gaze was staring at her.

At this moment, Yan Pei came over, held her hand, and smiled, "Miss Gu doesn’t know me, does she? My name is Yan Pei."

She then pointed to the girl who had been glaring at Yun Jiao, "This is Ling Wei." She chuckled, "Speaking of which, you two are related by marriage."

"This young lady is soon to be married into the Duke Mansion."

Yun Jiao nodded politely at Ling Wei, who turned her head to the side with a disdainful snort.

Yan Pei laughed, pulling Yun Jiao to sit together with them, acting as if she was very enthusiastic.

Soon these young ladies started discussing clothing, jewelry, rouge, and fragrances, things they were interested in.

One of the young ladies said, "By the way, I finally got my hands on Qingbao Studio’s osmanthus perfume yesterday. My family’s servant went to queue early in the morning; otherwise, we wouldn’t have gotten it. I heard it’s out of stock again."

Another leaned over and sniffed around her, "No wonder, I was wondering why there’s a scent of osmanthus on you, it smells wonderful."

"We girls are still better suited to floral scents; they’re much fresher than the smoky spicy fragrances."

Yan Pei said, "Well, it’s not necessarily only the floral scents that are good. I have a bottle of sandalwood perfume at home that I find nicer than burning sandalwood itself, heavier than osmanthus, but overall wonderful."

Ling Wei lazily said, "The Empress’s Jasmine Flower Perfume is still the most pleasant, I rather like that scent."

The Empress was her grandaunt; she loved to bring up the Empress.

Yun Jiao listened to them talk, keeping silent.

Yan Pei suddenly looked at Yun Jiao with a mocking gaze, "I wonder what perfume Miss Gu uses?"

Yun Jiao hadn’t spoken yet when Ling Wei sneered, "Miss Gu probably doesn’t even know what perfume is!"
