Chapter 1371: Chapter 990: Poison Doctor Unrivaled 51 (five thousand) Part 2
In ancient times, women needed to tie their hair into buns, and in order for the buns to stay in place, hair oil was required. Although the scent of hair oil was pleasant, it was very absorbent of dust and dirt, making it troublesome to clean. However, when tying hair buns, hair oil was indispensable. As it couldn’t be changed, they started by reducing greasiness and focusing on cleansing and maintenance.
As Shui Yixuan gradually understood, he came to more or less comprehend his fiancée’s independent thoughts.
With such a clever and capable mind, it would truly be a waste to stay hidden away as a young wife. He even had a premonition that the Shui Clan’s influence would reach new heights with this young wife joining them!
Because Jiang Xue had been tricked by Beiming Yi, she planned to give them a grand gift at his and Murong Ya’s wedding.
Regarding the sister who was eight months younger than her, Jiang Xue had no impression, but those she did remember had already wed after the Bai Family fell apart. She had not paid attention to whom they married and did not intend to go as part of the bridal escort, especially after the Old Emperor’s previous antics. She even considered not returning to Beijing.
Given that she was not far from the Holy Dynasty and was now the Young Master’s Wife of the Shui Clan, although not yet married, as someone from the Jianghu community, she was not bound by formalities and could attend Beiming Yi’s wedding as a family member.
When she inquired when she could return to Beijing, Shui Yixuan felt a bit apprehensive: "What are you planning?"
The excitement in Jiang Xue’s eyes made him inexplicably want to light a candle for someone.
"He made us suffer so much. Isn’t it reasonable for me to give him a big gift in return?"
"No, this is a major wedding establishing diplomatic ties between two countries; you mustn’t mess around. Moreover, I’ve heard that the Holy Dynasty Emperor’s health isn’t as good as your father’s. If something goes wrong after the wedding, the Crown Prince might be appointed. Even though Beiming Yi’s actions were inconsiderate, we’ll have plenty of opportunities to settle scores later. Just don’t get involved now."
Jiang Xue glared with almond eyes: "How can that be? Although they say a gentleman’s revenge is not late even after ten years, I’m a lady! I refuse to abide by such stupid rules. I will have my revenge; if I don’t, I won’t feel satisfied. I’ll never get over it. Damn it, dare to bully me? He’s clearly treating us like fools, tui, so shameless, two million gold taels! How long has the Shui Clan been saving to gather that much?"
Jiang Xue’s expression was too genuine, and she didn’t plan to listen to any of his advice, so all he could do was look at his wife and foolishly ask.
"How do you plan on getting revenge?"
Jiang Xue mischievously blinked, "I’ve already started my revenge. Uh, no, to be exact, my revenge has been gradually enveloping him. Hahaha, I’m really looking forward to the outcome. Just as he schemed against me, I’ll make him regret it immensely!"

Considering the actual distance Blue Moon had to travel to the Holy Dynasty, the princess bride had to set out at least a month in advance. This time, Prince Ling and the Crown Prince would escort the bride together. Murong Han hasn’t returned to Beijing and doesn’t plan to undertake this task as he’s been dealing with numerous matters and has already spent half a year on the island.
Jiang Xue’s cosmetics business, thanks to vigorous promotion by the Shui Clan, has now received an order of fifty thousand taels from the Holy Dynasty Capital.
Her shop has opened, and the girls and women hired to make the products were from the Shui Clan’s labor force, all under indentures, ensuring no leakage of the secret formula. Additionally, Jiang Xue paid close attention to confidentiality. The production line was divided into rooms for processing. Each person was familiar only with their specific procedure and knew nothing about the others, significantly reducing the chances of a leak.
Before Beiming Yi’s wedding, which would take place at the end of October, Jiang Xue followed Shui Yixuan to the glass factory in Nanyue. After repeated communication and some experimentation with top craftsmen, although they had just figured out the basics, and the finished products were small, not transparent but green, the first step is always the hardest. With the first step taken, how could they not figure out a way to make larger pieces of glass?
People say ancient wisdom is quite remarkable. Despite Jiang Xue’s limited memory, whenever she recalls something, she would send a carrier pigeon to consult Shui Yixuan. Whenever he had free time, he would come to Liuyang to see her. From October to mid-November, they had traveled to Nanyue more than twice.
Initially, Shui Yixuan did not want her to go, but this girl was too eager, willing to forsake the crucial period of glass research to rush back to the Holy Dynasty to attend Beiming Yi’s wedding.
