Chapter 1327 ·Lighting Incense

The two drank a cup of tea, and the third floor was tidied up. Chang An came up to invite people, and Min Tingke and Bai Rongxuan walked down slowly.

The tables and chairs on the third floor were moved cleanly, curtains were hung on the windows, a screen embroidered with white camellias was placed in the middle, and a lounge chair was placed on each side, covered with thin soft cushions and low pillows.

Isn't this... too thoughtful?

Bai Rongxuan was extremely satisfied and wished she could lie down immediately and have a good sleep.

However, Min Tingke was still a little disgusted and said nitpickingly, "Why don't you light the incense?"

Bai Rongxuan was speechless - do you want to live such a delicate life?

Chang An asked, "What kind of incense would Mr. Liu want? If Wangjiang Tower doesn't have it, I'll have someone go back to the store to get it."

Min Tingke said, "Please order the lychee incense. The taste is moderate and not too pungent."

Chang An agreed, turned around and gave the order.

The boy from the Min family hurried back to the shop to get a box of lychee incense. When he lit the incense, Min Tingke was still a little dissatisfied, "The cushions are too thin, and they are a bit uncomfortable."

Bai Rongxuan was too lazy to pay attention to him and lay down on her own. She stretched out her limbs and felt very comfortable. If the corset hadn't been a little tight, she would have been even more comfortable. Although there was a screen in the middle, Min Tingke was beside him

, Bai Rongxuan did not dare to show any slightness, and turned her back to him specifically, for fear that he would see any clues.

Chang An quickly replaced the soft cushions.

Min Tingke asked, "Brother Zhi, do you want to change?"

Bai Rongxuan whispered, "No need."

The air exudes the fragrance of lychees, and the sweet fruity fragrance makes people feel like they are in an orchard. The breeze blows slowly from the window, and Bai Rongxuan feels sleepy, and her eyelids become heavier and heavier.

However, Min Tingke was not sleepy at all, so he asked again, "Brother Zhi, do you think this lychee smells good?"

"Hmm..." Bai Rongxuan replied vaguely, "It smells good..."

Min Tingke said, "Then do you know how this incense is made?"

Bai Rongxuan rolled her eyes at the boss in her heart - who wants to know such boring things?

Min Tingke explained patiently, "Actually, we use washed lychee shells, dry them in the sun first, then soak them in a lower concentration of rice wine overnight, then put them in a pot to dry the rice wine, and the cooked lychee shells

Sun-dry again and dry

Then grind it into powder and pass it through a fine sieve to become a fragrant powder, and then make it into incense. It seems simple, but it is really very labor-intensive, but I think it is very suitable for this time. The smell makes people feel

It feels so comfortable, and I’m happier than eating lychees.”

Bai Rongxuan smelled the fragrance of lychees and heard Min Tingke's deep voice in her ears. She was lingering on the edge of sleep, hoping that Min Tingke would shut up and keep talking, as if his voice was the best.

The lullaby makes people feel at ease and comfortable.

Min Tingke didn't get a response from Bai Rongxuan, so he couldn't help but sit upright. On the other side of the screen, he saw Bai Rongxuan with her back turned, as if she had fallen asleep.

Min Tingke smiled slightly and said, "Brother Zhi, are you asleep?"

"Hmm..." Bai Rongxuan replied in a daze.

How can a person talk to himself when he is asleep?

Min Tingke rolled his eyes and immediately became energetic. Taking advantage of Bai Rongxuan's lack of energy, he deliberately asked, "Brother Zhi, if one day Bai Xiu and I fall into the river together, who will you save first?"

Bai Rongxuan replied almost without thinking, "Save...you..."

Min Tingke was overjoyed, and the smile on his face was brighter than the sunshine outside the window. He quickly covered his mouth, fearing that he would laugh out loud, "What if I fall together with Mr. Guan?"

Bai Rongxuan said again, "Save you."

Min Tingke was happy and proud at the same time. He straightened his shoulders and looked proud. When he turned his head and caught a glimpse of Chang An who had not left, he suddenly looked embarrassed and said in a low voice with a straight face, "What are you still doing here?

"

Chang An felt extremely aggrieved.

He just wanted to wait and see if Mr. Liu had any instructions. What was wrong?

Who would have thought that they would have seen the useless scene of Mr. Liu?

He hurriedly lowered his head and ran downstairs without saying anything.

But then I thought about it again, and I felt something was wrong. There seemed to be something different between Mr. Liu and Brother Zhi...

Without the eyesore, a smile appeared on Min Tingke's face again. Bai Rongxuan could only be heard muttering, "That's not right... Uncle Liu, can't you swim? I... I can't swim, and I can't...

Can't be saved..."

If he hadn't been afraid of disturbing him, Min Tingke would have laughed out loud on the spot.

This Brother Zhi is so interesting.

Deliberately teasing him, but afraid of waking him up, Min Tingke slowly lay down, listening to Bai Rongxuan's rhythmic breathing, and slowly closed his eyes.

Bai Rongxuan slept very soundly, and when she woke up again, there were waves of gongs and drums coming from outside the window.

Bai Rongxuan rubbed her eyes, but she still didn't understand what happened.

She was the only one left on the entire third floor, and there was no sign of Min Tingke. She was even covered with a thin blanket, which was obviously brought by someone who was worried that she would catch a cold.

Bai Rongxuan was shocked and quickly sat up from the recliner.

She was about to go downstairs to find someone, but Chang An, who heard the voice, walked up quickly and said, "Master Zhi, you're awake."

Bai Rongxuan looked embarrassed and said, "Where's Uncle Six?"

Chang An said, "Foreigners have also come to watch the fun. Mr. Liu is taking care of things downstairs, and the old lady and the others have all gone upstairs and are watching a show."

Why are foreigners here too?

Do they also celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival?

Bai Rongxuan suppressed her curiosity and walked to the fourth floor to watch the show with Mrs. Min.

Although she had listened to operas with Mrs. Tang before, this was the first time she had seen opera singing on the river. The magnificent river water set off the brightly-dressed actors on the stage, which gave her a unique flavor.

Mrs. Min was afraid that she would be bored, so she asked Aunt Yi to bring a plate of fruit and put it in front of her.

Seeing how much Mrs. Min loved Bai Rongxuan, Mrs. Min couldn't help but look at her twice, but said nothing.

Min Tingke quickly walked upstairs.

Mrs. Min asked, "Have the arrangements been made for the foreigners?"

Min Tingke smiled and said, "Foreign masters are rare guests. There are countless people waiting to be entertained. There is no need for me to worry about them. I'll pass them on to the Yuan family."

Min Zhiyuan was surprised when he heard the sound, "Yuan family? When did you get so close to his family?"

Min Tingke said, "We are all making a living on the beach in Shanghai. We can't see each other when we look up. Who can stay away from the other?"

Min Zhiyuan was very dissatisfied with his rhetoric, "Haven't you always been in frequent contact with the Peng family? Xiaoliu, you are just throwing a hammer here and there. Be careful, you will end up beating the cake. You won't get any benefits, but you will have to pay for it."

You're going to get into a lot of trouble."

Min Tingke said, "What benefits can the Yuan family give me? I just don't want to give others an advantage, so I gave it to them. With the current situation of the Yuan family, foreigners may not like it, and their family may not be able to afford it.

It’s the best choice right now.”

Bai Rongxuan listened and suddenly thought of Bai Xiuyao's previous proposal.

He also wants to help him and Yuan Zheng scheme against the Jiang family with his own money.

She vaguely agreed to this matter, but never gave a confirmation. Should you take this opportunity to ask Uncle Liu for advice?

She looked at Min Tingke hesitantly.

Min Tingke happened to be looking at her, and their eyes met. Min Tingke smiled and said, "Brother Zhi, I didn't expect your snoring to be so loud. It made me unable to sleep at all."

What?

Bai Rongxuan said in shock, "Impossible! I don't snore when I sleep!"

Min Tingke deliberately teased her, "You're already asleep, so of course you don't know."
