Tonight there is no wind, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, the two people under the tree have not shown any signs of wanting to go back inside.

  The cloud-like book quietly placed a lamp and retreated again.

  It seemed like he remembered something, Qi You took out a folded paper from his pocket and handed it over.

  "What is it?" Hua Ru Chū took it over and opened it for a look. They were all names of medicines she recognized.

  Qī Yòu didn't say a word and just drank tea by himself.

  "The formula from the palace?"

  Qī Yòu nodded, "Let the reliable maids divide into two groups to fetch medicine from different pharmacies, be discreet, if you're discovered by people in the mansion, it will be troublesome."

  "Alright, Dongfei has learned a bit, I'll have someone buy the medicines in the formula in large quantities from several places and let Dongfei weigh them out according to the proportions."

  Qiu Yong really wanted to ask you how the maid by your side learned this, but the words reached the tip of her tongue and she swallowed them after a few turns. Some things are asked so clearly that they will only lead to trouble... probably doesn't want to reveal all her cards either.

  "The tea garden has already sent a message. The land deed and other things will be delivered by Qi Liang tomorrow, but for the time being, my name is written on the land deed. If you think..."

  "No, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. I just don't want to draw attention to myself, as long as I can drink new tea every year, I'm satisfied, other things, I don't care."

  It's precisely because he knew she didn't want to show her face that Qi You didn't write her name on the deed, "As long as you don't mind, no matter what, this tea garden is yours."

  Hua Ru Chun refilled the cup of tea for the person in front of her, and then filled up her own cup again. "I've said it before," she said, "as long as I can get new tea every year, that's all I need."

  "That's something nobody can take away from you."

  Hua Ru's mouth twitched, how could a tea garden be called that if it didn't have at least a few hundred tea trees? Moreover, it was given by Qi You, no matter how good the tea leaves were, they couldn't be eaten as rice. How much of it could she drink in a year? If her share was snatched away, this tea would really enter thousands of households.

  It's still far from this level now...

  Stretching lazily, Hua Ru asked with a smile, "Aren't you going to accompany Qing Liu tonight? She has sacrificed her body for you."

  "She's not doing it for me, but to vie for favor, the purpose of vying for favor is to live a better life. In those days, she was also simple and naive, but look at her now... Don't change like that."

  Using someone else's failure to warn her? This really made her speechless, Hua Ruochu smiled with restraint but proudly, "Even if I, Hua Ruochu, change one day, it won't be in that direction, Qi You, don't underestimate me too much."

  Qī Yòu wanted to say that he had never underestimated her, but the words that came out of his mouth were "It's fine this way."

  It's really boring, Hua Ru pinched her hair and stood up: "The dew is heavy at night, let's go back to the house."

  "Alright."

  One night without a word, early the next morning, the deed of the tea garden was delivered into Yun Shu's hands.

  The days when she didn't have to attend morning and evening classes, or have others attend them for her, had finally allowed Hua Ruyuchu to relax a little.

  After having breakfast, Hua Ru had just received the land deed and took a look, asking: "Are all the things done?"

  Yun Shu said while massaging her shoulders, "There are still a few left, but the manor only has one bamboo craftsman, and it's not going to speed up. Do you want me to go outside and ask for a few more bamboo craftsmen?"

  "You'd better stay in the mansion a bit more often, so as not to give others something to gossip about. Autumn, you go."

  Qiu Jin carefully arranged the pastries, smiled and said: "Miss, in my opinion, we don't need to go out to find someone. If we tell the bamboo craftsman, he should have some familiar colleagues."

  It's better this way, "You go ask him, don't forget to give some reward money."

  "Yes."

  She patted the contract and complained, "If I had known that I would have brought a few more experienced workers over here to set up a tea garden. The people here don't know how to pick tea, their method of picking is all wasteful, and it's exhausting to re-teach them."

  Miss, let me handle this matter. You're not convenient to go out frequently now. Picking tea isn't difficult, it's just a bit slow at first. There are many idle maids in the other courtyard, I'll have them go with you first, and they can teach you quickly.

  "Alright, I'll leave it up to you."

  "Yes, miss."

  At noon that day, Qi An led a few people carrying baskets from the back door into the mansion, with faint traces of mud visible.

  Let someone wait outside first, Qi'an alone entered the yard, others can't see it, but as a personal servant of the eldest young master, he can see that the eldest young master has a different attitude towards the young lady, and his respect is several points higher than before.

  "The little one has seen Mrs. Few."

  "Excuse me, is there something you'd like to instruct me about?"

  Qian stood up, his eyes cast downward, not daring to offend. "In response to Young Master's wife, the young master had someone find flowers and grasses with mosquito-repelling properties some time ago. These past few days, they finally found some. The little one brought some over for Young Master's wife to try out. If it works, the little one will go transplant more."

  Hua Ru had not expected that Qi You, without a word, would do such a thing for her. Her people hadn't even found it yet, but he had already found and sent it over. Whether it would work or not, she felt the kindness behind his actions.

  "Bring things into the yard."

  "Yes."

  Hua Ruochu got up and stood in the courtyard, watching Qi An lead someone to put a bamboo basket two steps in front of her.

  As soon as they smelled the fragrance, Hua knew that they hadn't made a mistake. At least one of them, Seven Mile Fragrance, was indeed effective in driving away mosquitoes.

  Walking up to take a closer look, apart from the Seven Mile Fragrance, she also saw Tithonia and Night-blooming Jasmine. There was another plant that emitted a refreshing fragrance, but she couldn't remember its name. Although she didn't know if it had mosquito-repelling properties, it smelled good, so she decided to grow it anyway.

  "He pointed at the Seven Mile Fragrance and the one whose name he couldn't recall, 'I don't want any others, just these two.'"

  "Yes, these two are a bit far apart, it will probably take three days to deliver, please forgive me, madam."

  "No problem, there aren't mosquitoes yet, I'm in no hurry."

  "I will take my leave as soon as possible, unless Madam has other instructions."

  Hua Ru glanced at Yun Shu and Yun Shu understood, each of them stuffed a red envelope into their hands. "Thanks for your hard work, I'll treat you all to a pot of wine."

  Qian An did not refuse, and bowed his head saying: "Thank you, Young Mistress, I will take my leave."

  She sent the person to the hospital entrance and Yun Shu returned. Curiously asked, "Miss, why did you want these two? It's not like that in the Huahouse."

  "Our yard is so big, I can plant wherever I want, of course, anything goes. This courtyard is just this small, if we mix and match, it might look good, but the mixed smell isn't necessarily pleasant." After walking around the courtyard, Hua Ruochu was thinking about where to plant something that would be both aesthetically pleasing and functional. Compared to her boudoir in the Hua residence, this place is really too small.

  Just as they were about to have dinner, Yun Shu supported her into the house and said, "Don't you plan to plant some in other places of Qi Manor too?"

  "I don't have that power, if they really need it in the future, they will bring it up themselves and ask to plant it. Isn't that better than me forcing it on them? Besides, Third Aunt is pregnant, and pregnancy is inherently unstable. If I were to do this out of kindness and something unexpected happens to her child, can you guarantee that the blame won't fall on me? In a big household like this, it's best not to get involved in idle matters. Have you forgotten what Aunt said?"

  "How could I dare to forget, it's just that I really miss the beautiful appearance of Huafu. As a servant girl, I have some experience, but I've never seen anyone's house more beautiful than Huafu. This Qi Manor can't even compare, it's so bare and plain, not even one-tenth as good as Huafu."

  "You can say this in front of me, but if you dare to say it outside, I'll cut out your tongue."

  Yun Shu stuck out her tongue and said, "Miss, I understand."
