C19 Exemption

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. After the confinement was lifted, Ye Yuning immediately went to the Garden of Peace to pay respects to the old mistress.

The Garden of Peace was as quiet as usual. The maids moved slowly and lifted the curtain to invite Ye Yuning in. Today, Ye Yuning was the first to arrive, and the others had not arrived yet. The sky had yet to brighten, and candles were lit in the room. The dim light of the candles illuminated a dark shadow, adding a sense of gloom and silence. Ye Yuning could not help but frown. She was very displeased with the environment.

Just as she was waiting quietly, a soft footstep sounded from outside the door.

The pearl curtain made a crisp sound. Ye Yuying and Ye Yujiao entered the room together. When the two of them saw Ye Yuning, they were surprised and stunned.

Immediately, Ye Yujiao's expression turned cold as she pounced towards Ye Yuning, "Ye Yuning, you slut! You caused me to be in such a state!"

Ye Yuning took a step back with a cold expression. Fei Qing had already reacted and took a step forward to block her behind.

"Eighth Sister, what are you doing? Why aren't you pulling her?" Ye Yuying cried out softly, but she did not move. Her eyes flashed with the light of watching a good show.

Ye Yuning did not say anything. She was not interested in the show that the two of them were putting on. The maids looked at each other and seemed to be about to pull Ye Yujiao, but one of them quietly stretched out his leg and kicked towards Ye Yuning.

However, before that leg could even get close to Ye Yuning, it was blocked by Fei Qing.

Ye Yuning's eyes darkened as she said, "This is the old mistress's room. Eighth Sister, you are making a fuss here. You have disturbed the old mistress. Do you want to be punished?"

Her words immediately caused everyone to pause.

Ye Yujiao reacted and said fiercely to Ye Yuning, "Just wait. One day, I will let you see!"

She had lost her innocence. Not only did she have to marry that ugly Li Changle, but she also had to lose face in front of her beloved. She would never be able to have any interaction with him in the future. This made Ye Yujiao extremely hateful.

The corner of Ye Yuning's mouth curled up slightly, and the tip of her eyebrows raised slightly. "I will be waiting."

After saying that, she no longer paid attention to her.

Ye Yuying's gaze turned back and forth between the two of them. She held a fan in her hand, covering half of her face and hiding the smile on her face.

Not long after, Nanny Jiang came out of the inner room. She ignored the tension between the three of them and waved at the servant girl at the door, "Old mistress has a headache. Go and get the ebony wood."

The servant girl quickly walked over. Only then did Nanny Jiang go up and bow to the three of them. "Miss, please return first!"

Her body was a little uncomfortable, and she said that there was no need to greet her.

"Grandmother has a headache again? How is it? Is it serious? Do you need to get a doctor?" Ye Yuying was the first to speak, showing her concern.

Nanny Jiang smiled. "Fifth Miss also knows that this is an old illness. It's not serious, so there's no need to get a doctor."

Ye Yuying stroked her chest and sighed in relief. The worry on her face slightly faded away, and she revealed a smile. "Then I won't disturb Grandmother's rest."

Usually, Ye Yuying's status should not be valued, but due to her exquisite personality and attentive attitude, she left a deep impression in the old lady's heart.

After saying that, Ye Yuying pulled Ye Yujiao and motioned for her to leave with her.

At this time, Ye Yuning, who had been silent all this time, took out a sachet from her sleeve and said, "Yuning knows that Grandmother has a headache, so I specially found an ancient formula to make a fragrance to give to Grandmother."

Nanny Jiang's gaze fell on the sachet in Ye Yuning's hand.

The small sachet was made of purple silk and gold and silver threads embroidered with the pattern of the Eight Treasures Gourd. It was so luxurious that it made people's eyes light up.

"Thank you for your trouble, Third Miss. I'll go back and report to the old lady." Nanny Jiang entered the inner room and quickly came out. She nodded at Ye Yuning and said with a smile, "Madam, please invite Third Miss in."

Ye Yuning had been studying the fragrance recipe these days. The fragrance recipe of Lady Wen was indeed unique. Ye Yuning tried to make a few pieces according to the recipe, and they were indeed much better than the ones sold in the market. No matter if it was the color, fragrance, or the burning time, they were all more outstanding.

Ye Yuning came here today naturally for a reason.

The old lady had always been cold to Lady Wen and Ye Yuning. Ye Yuning was originally impatient to please her, but for her mother, Ye Yuning still decided to give it a try. She did not expect the old lady to be nice to her and her mother. As long as she did not side with others at the critical moment.

This fragrance was her walking stone …

After coming out of the Garden of Peace, Ye Yuning's expression did not change, but Fei Qing and Fei Xiu could feel the joy in her eyes.

"Why is Miss in such a good mood?" Fei Qing opened her eyes wide and asked curiously.

Ye Yuning pursed her lips and did not say anything. She stretched out her finger and scratched Fei Qing's cheek, "You are so troublesome."

Fei Qing stuck out her tongue. She knew that this was because Miss was close to her. She smiled and went up to her, "Miss, since the madame has been released, let's go out and play? I have been locked up in the house for a long time, and I am almost moldy."

"You little girl!" Ye Yuning covered her mouth and laughed, "If you can't sit still, how will you be able to marry someone in the future? Don't tell me you are going out all day long?"

"What are you talking about?" Fei Qing stomped her feet, and her face flushed red.

Ye Yuning laughed again, and even Fei Xiu, who was usually steady, could not help but laugh softly, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore." Ye Yuning saw that Fei Qing was getting more and more embarrassed, so she said, "I heard that the seafood in the Treasure Restaurant is very good. I'll take you guys to have a taste."

The two maids were overjoyed. The three of them returned to the Delicious Fragrance Garden in a happy mood.

After changing into her usual clothes, Ye Yuning wore an apricot yellow dress with a chest length, draped a watery green veil over her shoulders, and tied her hair into a bun. She then put on a new pearl head mask and left the house.

This was the first time Ye Yuning went out alone in her life. However, with her previous life experience, she felt less nervous and more at ease.

The restaurant was filled with customers. Ye Yuning went to the second floor and ordered a large table of delicious food. After the dishes were served, Ye Yuning waved at the two maids.

"Hurry up and sit down to eat! There are so many dishes, are you planning to let me finish them all by myself?" Ye Yuning teased.

Fei Qing giggled and held the bowl and chopsticks in her hands as she sat across from Ye Yuning. Fei Xiu, on the other hand, changed the dishes that Ye Yuning liked to her and sat to the side.

Ye Yuning felt warmth in her heart because of her attentiveness. She took the initiative to pick a few dishes for the two of them. Although the three of them were master and servant, their friendship was even deeper.

After the meal, there was still a lot left. Fei Qing called over the waiter and packed the few expensive dishes into a box. "Take it back and let Bai Yi and the others taste it."

Ye Yuning did not comment and paid the money before the three of them walked out of the restaurant.

The food was carried by the driver. Ye Yuning pointed to the street not far away and asked, "I remember that the dowry shop of my mother is on this street?"

Fei Xiu nodded and replied, "That Han Lan Fragrance is it. Miss probably doesn't know, but the spices sold in Madam's shop are famous all over the place! Any daughter with some wealth would come here to buy fragrances."

Hearing this, Ye Yuning smiled.

The Wen Family was famous for making fragrances. She was not surprised that the Han Lan Fragrance was doing well. However, she wondered if her mother knew about the box of books on making fragrances.

With a thought, Ye Yuning said, "May I know if my mother is in the shop? Let's go take a look. If she is, we can go back to the mansion together."

Fei Xiu and Ye Yuning naturally had no objections. They nodded and followed Ye Yuning to the market.
