Chapter 1295: Chapter 1295: Impressive Skills

The children who had eaten their fill were easiest to amuse.

As soon as Su Yunjin made an attempt, the little fellow in the duchess’s arms faced her and laughed out loud, the cheerful laughter making anyone listening feel good inside.

Remembering she still had the sachet and cloth tiger her second sister had made for her, Su Yunjin quickly took these two items out from the cloth bag at her waist.

The cloth tiger was to entertain the child, while the sachet was given to the duchess.

"What exquisitely delicate sachets and toys!" The duchess, fixating on the sachet Su Yunjin handed her, and the toy in her hands, was full of surprise—Su Ningxiu’s needlework was excellent.

Though not comparable to the embroideresses at the Imperial Palace, they were by no means inferior. Whether it was the sachet or the cloth tiger, both were beautifully made. Having seen all sorts of valuable gifts, the duchess was no longer impressed by costly items, but was exceptionally pleased with the cloth tiger and sachet that Su Yunjin had brought out.

Compared to those expensive gifts, these were much more refreshing. Assuming that Su Yunjin had made these items, the duchess said with a smile, "Little sister, you truly are talented. Not only is your medical skill so profound, but your needlework is also quite remarkable." Caressing the sachet in her hand, the duchess liked it more and more.

Su Yunjin used the cloth tiger to play with the kid, whose shiny, large eyes were fixed on the cloth tiger. Initially uncertain of what it was, the little one did not reach for it.

After staring for a while, the child then tried to grab with his little hands. Su Yunjin handed the cloth tiger to the boy and shook her head with a smile at the duchess. "Your Highness, I must confess that neither the sachet nor the cloth tiger was made by me."

Both the sachet and cloth tiger were the achievements of her second sister, and Su Yunjin could not bring herself to take credit for her sister’s work in front of the duchess. If it was not hers, then it was not.

The duchess’s eyes flickered with surprise upon hearing Su Yunjin speak this way. After a pause, she continued to inquire from Su Yunjin.

"Madam Su, if you did not make the sachet and cloth tiger, then who did?" The little one in her arms began gnawing on the cloth tiger.

After the duchess asked, seeing her son chewing on the cloth tiger, she couldn’t help but laugh yet also feel speechless. She hurriedly pulled the cloth tiger out of her son’s mouth.

The result was the child protested. As the duchess pulled away the cloth tiger, the little one thought someone was taking his food and burst into loud crying.

The duchess felt sorry for her son, quickly patting his back to soothe him while, on the other side, Su Yunjin told her, "Your Highness, the sachet and cloth tiger were actually made by my second sister, Su Ningxiu. Her needlework is quite good. Seeing how delicate the cloth tigers she made for my brother were, I thought of asking her to make one for the Little Prince to play with."

"Madam Su, who would have thought your second sister had such excellent needlework skills?" Children are easy to soothe, and with a little comforting from the duchess, the noisy little one quickly became quiet.

"My second sister has the best needlework in our family. Compared to her, the pieces I make are barely presentable."

Speaking of her own needlework, Su Yunjin felt somewhat embarrassed.

"By the way, Your Highness, I had my second sister place specially chosen herbs in the sachet. The herbs inside have calming and invigorating properties. When you go to sleep at night, you can place the sachet underneath your pillow. It will help you sleep."

Right when the duchess first held the sachet, she sensed a unique fragrance distinct from any sachet she had used before. Now, with Su Yunjin’s explanation, the duchess suddenly understood. No wonder she found the scent unusual; the sachet contained a special blend of aromatics specifically arranged by Su Yunjin.
