That night, the wife told the master what had happened. The old man was shocked, angry, sad, and helpless. But there is no better way.

On the second day, the lord explained the official affairs of the yamen, returned home early, and summoned Shu'e to see him. Shu E has been in the house for a few years, and she has always rarely seen the master, and occasionally she saw her in a hurry, and she just followed everyone to say goodbye. At this time, she knew that the old man was her own maternal uncle, and she couldn't help but think of the sentence "Seeing your uncle is like seeing your mother", and she felt a lot of closeness in her heart.

After Wan Fu saluted, he also looked at the master carefully while he was looking at himself. Maybe it's because of the busy government affairs, or maybe it's because I just heard about this incident and was overly worried, but under the elegant and upright appearance of the old man, there is a tiredness that can't be hidden. Shu'e thought of her mother again for a while, this is the brother who grew up with her mother, just like Rannuo who grew up with Shuyan. Thinking of the loneliness of his life, when he saw his relatives at this time, he couldn't help but have some tears in his eyes.

The old man Cao Xi looked at Shu E carefully, she and Shuyan's mouth and nose were somewhat similar, but her face was thinner and more childish. It's not like a lady, she always has such a proud look on her face, and her eyes are always cold and guarded, just like her mother. However, I have seen her mother's most gentle and graceful expression, her warm smile like a spring breeze, her loving look when she was a mother, her rich and sincere attachment, her deep and undetectable loneliness, and Shuyan, I have rarely seen her, she has other looks besides cold arrogance.

Alas...... The old man sighed, pity the maid in front of him, the scar on the right eye, so that the eyelids are somewhat involved, just when she first came in, she hung her head, only felt that the mouth and nose were similar to the girl, at this moment look at her eyebrows and eyes, spring mountain dripping green, autumn water gaze, if not for the scar on the face, these apricot eyes must be beautiful and extraordinary, but fortunately there is a scar, so as not to make people feel that her eyes are too different from Shuyan's eyes. However, these eyes ...... Alas...... The old man sighed and shook his head.

"What, sir, don't you say this girl can't do it?" Mrs. sent Lilac to the third young master early in the morning, and sent clothes and jewelry to Shu'e, as well as incense powder and rouge, so that she could dress up well. Shu E only waited for Lilac to leave before starting to prepare.

She lit the candlestick and gently roasted it, toasted the scar softly, and gently pasted it. This is the glue made by the grandfather with shelled centipedes, deer tendons, rhinoceros horns and other things, and it also has a name, called deer rhinoceros glue. If you want some color, just soften it and pick up a little rouge, and it will become red and bright, like a new injury.

I remember that when my grandfather asked her to modify it and lied that she was injured, she had half a jar of glue, and my grandfather picked it up with chopsticks, roasted it with fire, and spread it on his fingers little by little, making such a scar the thickness of a little finger, before it was pasted on Shu E's face. Grandpa once said the boiling method of this glue, and also said that this jar of glue helped him a lot, but he didn't tell Shu'e anything.

Shu'e has a white complexion, as long as she no longer rubs the yellow-brown powder that her grandfather made for her with marigolds, sophora, and gardenias, she is already extremely fair, but she still uses the yellow powder and the powder given by her wife to gluttony, and applies a light layer. He put on the clothes that his wife had given her—though she was afraid that they would be too conspicuous and suspicious, so she gave them only clothes of bright colors.

After dressing up, Mrs. looked at it and thought it was very appropriate, so she let her go to learn some etiquette from Sister-in-law He, for fear that she would fall short in the future. At this time, the wife shook her head when she saw the master, and she became anxious.

The old man was silent, just thinking in his heart, it is indeed very appropriate to dress up like this. I think that although the father-in-law in the palace has come, seen me, and made a painting and sent it to the palace for the queen mother to select, but when he saw the scar on his face, he didn't care about the reason for interrogation, at most he checked his chastity, but he wouldn't check her appearance carefully. "That's good, you just need someone to teach her etiquette again, and how the Queen Mother and the Holy One will answer when they ask."

"Then you shook your head and sighed for no reason, isn't it enough that I have been frightened for days?" The wife was disgusted.

The old man smiled, and said to Shu E: "Very good, child, you have made a contribution to the house this time, and you will come back ......."

"Then I will reward her." The wife was afraid that the old man would promise something difficult, so she grabbed the conversation and asked Shu'e to go down first. "The maid I will bring into the palace in the future, I will ask the housekeeper to buy it today." As soon as Shu'e walked out of the door, she heard her wife say that she would buy a maid, and thought that her wife was afraid of revealing secrets, so be careful, in fact, it would be easier to reveal it.

"Buying a maid?" The old man's tone was mocking with nonchalant.

"Yes, the maid in the house followed, didn't she want to know the way?" Mrs. is justified.

The old man was silent for a long time, thinking that he did not want to answer such a simple question as his wife. However, he still opened his mouth: "The maid in the house, when you come back, you still have to be on an errand in the house, you don't dare to make a noise, if you buy four more people to come back and enter the palace, whether you release Lu or stay in the house, there are four more people who know." Shu E walked away slowly, the old man is the real clever person.
