Lovable Beauty Chapter 1.2

Dianyue temple's jade water really was famous though so Xie Lanyin didn't doubt Yingge. She lazily leaned on the headboard and closed her eyes as she waited for her two maid servants to serve her. When Sangzhi came closer with the water, Xie Lanyin took the cloth and placed it on her face, the hot water dispelling away her sleepiness.

She sighed lightly and through the cloth said, "Yingge, help me ma.s.sage my legs. We walked the whole day yesterday and they're sore to death now."

Her voice is pleasant to the ear so even when she was complaining, those who heard her felt sympathetic. Yingge's heart pained and bent over to ma.s.sage her miss' legs immediately, from the thigh to the bottom of her feet in an experienced manner. Sangzhi had already been used to her miss' delicateness so she helped her miss wipe her face and hands. Then, she went and took two boxes of creams that were bright and colourful to her miss.

The refres.h.i.+ng smell of roses floated in the air as Xie Lanyin used her index finger to dot the cream on her forehead and cheeks. She contentedly said as she ma.s.saged her face, "This time's 'lovable beauty' cream sent by third cousin is definitely better than the last. Just smell it, even when it's put on the face, it's comfortable. I'm planning to only use this in the future so I'll tell my cousin in a bit."

Yingge immediately laughed and said, "Third gentleman has always doted on miss. Miss just has to say that she likes it and third gentleman definitely won't sell it to anyone else."

Madam gave birth to four daughters without a single son and uncle on that side in contrast, gave birth to four sons who all went into commerce. Oldest gentleman specialised in silks and furs, second gentleman specialised in ancient pottery, third gentleman loved makeup and creams, fourth gentleman specialised in tea. When all four gentleman started their business, the Jiang family's position in Xianxia became even more steady as the number one business group. Every business man praised their sons and hoped they would work with the Jiang family.

Third gentleman Jiang Huaizhou was older than miss by five years and they were born on the same day, 10th of the 10th. Because of this, the third gentleman especially dotes on his female cousin. Every time he made a new product, he'd let her try it out first and if she liked it, it would be made for her personal use. Just based on this point alone, numerous girls from all of Hangzhou were extremely jealous of miss. So they tried all sorts of methods to flatter her, hoping that she'd let them try some of the good creams …

It was a shame that the third gentleman had such a flirtatious nature, otherwise he really would be a good match for miss …

Thinking of the third gentleman's handsome and gentle appearance, Yingge silently lamented …

Xie Lanyin saw her maid servant's expression change and poked her forehead, "Stop thinking nonsense and go outside to see if madam has come back yet."

She had cousins on her father's side but they weren't close. So it was a good thing that her maternal uncle had four cousins. Her maternal uncle and aunt loved her as if she were their own so she treated her cousins as if they were her biological brothers. She didn't feel a drop of love that exceeded familial ties for them so as long as her third cousin treated her well, who cares about how many women he's had?

Watching Yingge's back, Xie Lanyin humphed, "I think Yingge's thinking about love too much. When we go back to Hangzhou, I'll pick a husband for her."

Sangzhi knew that the miss was joking so she laughed as she put away the cream boxes, "Miss would be too reluctant to part with Yingge. Once Yingge leaves, who will dote and cajole miss?"

Xie Lanyin's lip corners twitched and glanced outside, "Is it cold today? I want to wear that pink cherry blossom gown."

Sangzhi hurried to persuade her, "Miss, it's better to wear something thicker. Even though it's only barely March, it's fairly cold here. If miss wears so little, madam will definitely punish us when she sees." Scared that the miss would be angry, she continued hurriedly, "When we reach Xian, then we can wear it. It'd be even better because when we go shopping, then they can see how nice our material is from Hangzhou. If we go out now, there are so many mountains and trees that if it gets scratched, then we'll both feel hurt for our clothes."

Xie Lanyin pondered for a moment and then decided to change, "Okay, change to the one embroidered with b.u.t.terflies and flowers."

They were both new clothes but thankfully, that outfit was a bit thicker. Sangzhi nodded and went to retrieve it.
