Chapter 55: Annual Salary of 5,000 Taels(2)

It's okay not to look closely, but after looking closely, she found that Liu'er's right cheek seemed to be a little red and swollen?

Because Liu Er has a thicker blush on both cheeks, she can't tell that the right cheek is redder than the left. But Liu Er's original face shape was very small, a standard inverted triangle face shape, and at this time, the right cheek was significantly higher than the left, and no matter how thick the makeup was, it couldn't be hidden. Looking at this appearance, Liu Er seemed to have been slapped half a day ago, and her hand was not light.

She understood all at once. I see, no wonder Chen Jiao'er didn't bring Liu Er and Ping'er to her room this morning. I don't know why Chen Jiao'er is so angry in the morning...... Oh, no, is it just because she didn't sleep well yesterday, and when she got up early, she blamed Liu Er and Ping'er for not changing her into a thick quilt early, and beat the two of them without saying a word?

She raised an eyebrow. Chen Jiao'er's temper has made Liu Er and Ping'er bitter, especially Ping'er. Now Chen Jiao'er only brought Liu'er, and she hasn't seen Ping'er yet, I'm afraid that Ping'er is more seriously injured, and she can't see anyone with heavy makeup.

At this time, noticing her scrambling gaze, Chen Jiao'er flashed her body and blocked in front of Liu Er, telling her that she could no longer continue to explore.

She only sighed in her heart: Why bother? Since you want to get angry in the morning, it is better for Chen Jiao'er to wake up Liu Er and Ping'er last night and change the quilt for her. What do you say, I can't bear to disturb the two maids who are already asleep. I really don't understand Chen Jiaoer's awkward young lady's temper.

It just so happened that at this time, Mrs. Lan finally arrived. Ying Hao didn't say anything, but Chen Jiaoer was the first to attack, and sneered: "Sister Lan's makeup is so exquisite. ”

She no longer paid attention to Liu Er's side, and instead looked at Lan Niangzi.

Lan Niangzi originally liked to wear heavy makeup, but now she has changed her temperament, and if you look closely, you can see the traces of makeup, but she is thinly applied to the foundation, the eyebrows are darkened, and the lip color is light and does not seem to be dotted at all. But she saw that not only did Lan Niangzi not only not point her lips, but also covered her lips with foundation, which was also ruddy, so that the lip color appeared lighter. In general, Lan Niangzi's makeup is very suitable for her, different from the gaudy and vulgar on weekdays, but now she has a little bit of Lin Daiyu's sick appearance like Xizi wins three points, so it doesn't make people feel pitiful.

"Say hello to the master, sister concubine, sister side concubine and two sisters, Lan'er is late, and I hope that the master will forgive me. Lan Niangzi ignored Chen Jiao'er's sarcasm, her body moved lightly, and she blessed her body in the direction of Ying Hao and her, and her body was still shaking when she got up. The maid behind her helped her in time as if she had been prepared.

This girl is not another person, she has never looked up, and the scar on her forehead has already caught sight. She remembered that this maid's name was Qingzhi.

Lan Niangzi also brought Qingzhi and a maid.

Ying Hao looked at Qingzhi's appearance and asked, "Why is Lan'er a little unwell?"

Lan Niangzi frowned slightly, still leaning on Qingzhi's hand, but she made a chuckling expression, and responded to Hao in a shallow tone: "Master Lao is worried, Lan'er is fine." It's just that I've been stuffy in the house for the past few days, and I don't feel that it's getting cold outside, and I still covered it with a thin quilt last night, and I didn't sleep well. Out of the way. ”

This reason has already been used by Chen Jiaoer first. However, Lan Niangzi said it at this time, and there was nothing wrong with it. looked at her eyes and glanced at Ying Hao silently, and there was even a hint of complaining that her master had not been in her house for a long time, causing her to be lonely and unable to sleep.

"Then why don't you add more clothes?" Regardless of whether Ying Hao understood the resentment in Lan Niangzi's eyes, he was considerate, "At night, we have to go to the lover's lake to watch the fireworks, and the lake is even colder at night, your clothes are inevitably a little thin, so let's go back and add another one." Don't worry, we'll wait for you. ”

Lan Niangzi said: "The concubine is already wearing three clothes, so there is no need to add more, right? ”

"Have you cleared it again?" Ying Hao heard that Lan Niangzi was already wearing three clothes, and looked at Lan Niangzi carefully with some surprise.

She was also surprised, and looked, Lan Niangzi's clothes were swaying, looking empty, and she seemed to be thinner than the last time they met. There are really three layers of clothes on her body, but the outermost layer is a tulle shirt, which is okay to say that it is decorative, and it is also considered one? But this is cold and warm for herself, even if she is wearing two shirts, she also adds one, it should not be cold.

Lan Niangzi responded to Hao: "The concubine's appetite has been a little lost recently, and she has indeed lost some of it. ”

At this time, Qing Zhi, who had been keeping her head down, actually said in a low voice: "The master has not come to the master's courtyard for a long time, and the master thinks of the master and can't swallow it......"

"Qingzhi!" Lan Niangzi drank Qingzhi, and Qingzhi closed her mouth halfway through speaking, but what Ying Hao should know had already been said.

Hey, she understood, Lan Niangzi was in harmony with Qingzhi, in order to ask Ying Hao to go to her courtyard more. Although she saw that Lan Niangzi's bleak face was fake, and it was all made by makeup, it was true that her body was thin and thin. As for whether he really couldn't eat because he missed Ying Hao, or deliberately ate less, he was ready to let Ying Hao notice it sooner or later, so he could sing such a play. In the end, the culprit is Ying Hao, who has no heart and liver, and made the beautiful girl suffer. If she is Ying Hao, she should go to Lan Niangzi's house tonight to "make amends".

She didn't think there was anything wrong with the "bitter meat trick" played by Lan Niangzi and Qing Zhi. They have never harmed others, but they are concubines, and they always have to think of ways to make themselves stand out from the many wives and concubines. Actually pitiful. She only felt some sympathy, and at the same time, she was faintly more determined that she didn't want to become like this.

Over there, Chen Jiaoer also understood it, but she couldn't tolerate it. First, she was late for her own careful decoration, and she couldn't get used to seeing Lan Niangzi come later than her. took a closer look, and found that Lan Niangzi deliberately put on makeup and pretended to be Xizi, which was the most annoying thing and really caused the master to feel a little distressed. Then she tried her best to decorate herself a lot of energy, didn't she do useless work? Master is going to take everyone out to play, and Lan Niangzi is not afraid of sweeping the interest of the master like this!

Chen Jiao'er felt a lot of resentment in her heart, but she made a smile on her face, and took the initiative to care about Lan Niangzi and said: "Look, my sister has really lost a lot." Fortunately, after a while, the master will take us to Moxianglou for dinner, and my sister will eat more. My sister has an extra shirt here, and if my sister feels cold later, I want to ask my sister for it. ”

"Alas, thank you, sister. Lan Niangzi was unexpectedly interjected by Chen Jiao'er, and before Ying Hao could say anything more, Qingzhi quietly pulled her sleeves behind her back, and then made a smile to thank Chen Jiao'er.
