24.Chapter 24
Seeing the pattern and style of the jade pendant and the long and delicate plum blossom strings, An Jin's face changed greatly. She immediately recognized that this was her third sister, Ruan Anzheng's personal jade pendant, each of their sisters had one, although it was cut on a piece of jade, but the patterns and winds were different.
Baizhu saw An Jin's rapidly changing face when he saw Yu Pei, but he didn't seem to see anything, he still lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and seriously picked up the brocade box and put it in front of An Jin, and then retreated behind Doctor Fu to stand still. Doctor Fu also didn't seem to see Anjin's abnormality, and got up with a light smile and said goodbye.
After they left, An Jin grabbed the jade pendant, and after confirming that it was really Ruan Anji's jade pendant a few times, his heart was like falling into a well, seven up and eight down, not knowing the depth. She didn't know if something happened to her third sister, why the personal jade pendant fell into Xiao Ye's hands, and she didn't know what Xiao Ye meant by sending the jade pendant to herself.
Could it be that he wants to say that his third sister is in his hands, and he wants to obey his arrangement and let him torture? An Jin shuddered, mother, this is really impossible to live.
An Jin's good mood after hearing about what happened in the Hou Mansion was all gone, and he almost felt that the sunny sky was shrouded in a layer of haze.
Fortunately, at dinner, An Geun heard a good news, which made her heart settle down a little, at least she had some clue about how to clear the current fog.
Because Zhao said to the sisters at dinner that he would take a few of them to participate in the begging meeting three days later, so that they could prepare for their lives. Especially An Jin, she has to rest for a few days, and only when all the red marks on her face and body are gone, can she take her to participate, otherwise she can only stay at home by herself.
According to the unwritten rules of the beggar club, unmarried girls between the ages of 14 and 16 usually participate in the competition, while those under the age of 14 are usually accompanied by their parents and elders to participate in the banquet and gain a long experience. In fact, there is an age limit for the competition, and there is no blind date, compared to the age of 14 to 16, many high-quality products have already been engaged, and those who are thirteen years old and below are the vast blind date market.
An Jin returned to the room and carefully observed her red mark in the mirror, she didn't care about it, but now she has to fade quickly, she must participate in this begging party, and find a chance to meet Ruan Anzheng and ask clearly.
Just when An Jin was thinking of various methods and rejecting them one by one, Bai Jian came to visit, carrying a small wooden basket woven of wicker in his hand, covered with ...... Grass? She was also followed by a little girl who had been sent by the Zhao family to serve Doctor Fu before, holding a small porcelain vase in her hand, just like holding a peerless treasure.
Bai Xuan put down the basket and said to An Jin: "Miss Seven, this is your medicine today, you can wait for two quarters of an hour when the medicine is warm before drinking." However, do not remove this branch and leaf before drinking, this medicine also needs to be warmed by this branch and leaf to be more effective. โ
An Jin's maids all stared at Mu Lan curiously, as if they felt that it was really a very high person, only An Jin felt that it was a good god, or that the master always needed more complicated procedures to prove that the medicine was brilliant and unique?
Here, Bai Xuan took a small porcelain vase from the hand of the little girl ring behind him, handed it to An Jin, and said: "The doctor said that Miss Seven must participate in the begging party in three days, but Miss's rash mark may affect Miss, so Miss Zhi cannot participate, so at the same time, he asked the maid to send this beautiful jade beauty cream." The doctor said that after applying this beauty cream, the rash marks would disappear in two days. โ
Jade beauty cream? Hearing this, An Jin took the plain-looking small porcelain bottle with disbelief, and uncorked it under the happy eyes of the maids, and suddenly a strange smell filled the room. When I looked at it, the bottle was a black mush.
Jade beauty cream? Or is it more reasonable to call it black mud? An Jin looked at Baizhu with a little suspicion, this is bullying her for not knowing! She remembered that she had seen Meiyu beauty cream from Sister Minmi, and she heard that it was given to her by the concubine, so she only got half a bottle. Not to mention that the bottle is exquisite, it is also fragrant when opened, and the things are crystal clear.
Bai Xuan obviously guessed what An Jin was thinking, and said with a smile: "Miss Seven, you must have seen the beautiful jade beauty cream that we Lingnan paid tribute to the imperial court?" The color and smell are indeed different from the one in your hand, but in fact, our doctor is the most authentic jade beauty cream in Lingnan. The tribute to the imperial court is the finished product after many procedures, although the color is clear and lovely, the smell is sweet, but the effect is really discounted. โ
An Jinmu was noncommittal, and when he looked at Baizhu carefully with his eyes, he couldn't see why. After sending Baizhu away, An Geun instructed Xue Qing to pour out the medicine in the wooden bowl, while he fiddled with the ointment in his hand.
Xue Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "Miss, if you're worried, why don't you let the maid drink this medicine for a few days to see the effect?" "If this medicine really works, wouldn't it be a waste?
An Geun shook her head, "Go and raise flowers." "How can anyone want to poison someone and give you a bowl of โกโก directly? Most of them are slowly given to you to eat, and after eating for a year and a half, you will accidentally rot your lungs, and then you will rot your liver or something after another year, and when you are so rotten that there is nothing, you also say that your own physique is not good. It's better to touch less.
But do you want to use this black beauty cream? She was ruthless, but she still picked some out and applied them on her arms and wrists, which were cool and cool, no stinging, very good, not sulfuric acid. An Jin's heart was half relieved, and she put some more on her arm, ready to see if it worked the next morning.
So the next day, An Jin asked Zhao for leave, and did not go to ask for good morning or breakfast. After the Zhao family finished handling the affairs of the house, they were not at ease, so they took several of An Geun's sisters into An Geun's freehand residence. They were all worried about whether the rash had worsened after Anjin returned home yesterday and the tiring travel.
Entering An Geun's Freehand Residence, they looked at An Geun as if they had seen a ghost - An Geun's face was covered with a thick layer of black mud at this time, and her body was crawling with black mud spots, which looked even more terrifying.
An Jin hurriedly waved his hand, first calmed them, and then ordered Biluo to explain to them.
But it was Anjin who washed the black mud on his arm when he got up in the morning, not only did he not have any allergic symptoms at all, but the skin that had been coated with black mud was simply blown and broken, and it was crystal clear. Doctor Fu is really modest, the red mark or something, I can't see it at all, and when I see it, I think An Jin's skin is too good, and the wind is blowing.
So An Jin was ruthless, and rubbed all the bottle of mud on his face, and if he didn't have enough on his body, he ordered Xue Ya to go to the yard next door to ask for another bottle, but this time he didn't want to use it all, but he rubbed it in the place where there was a medical mark.
The Zhao family and Ruan Antan Ruan Anmei were a little frightened, this can't work, she/their daughter/sister turned around and peeled it out, don't become a red-faced monster, only Ruan Antong didn't have the heart to think it was very funny, and wanted to ask An Jin for the black mud, An Jin didn't give it, it was a miracle medicine or โกโก can't give it.
It turns out that Zhao's and Ruan Antan's worries are superfluous, when An Jin appears in front of them at dinner, her skin is better than snow, and her complexion is compelling, of course, this should be the psychological effect caused by many factors, including the contrast with when there are rash marks, and the contrast when covered in black mud and so on.
At that time, Dr. Fu was carefully trimming the orchids in the yard with scissors in his hand, and there was an identical small porcelain vase on the small table next to her.
Bai Zhu looked at the orchid in Doctor Fu's hand and asked, "Doctor, why didn't you listen to the world and give this bottle of beauty cream to Miss Ruan Qi?" Do you like Miss Seven very much? โ
Doctor Fu didn't raise his head and said, "That's a fool, he doesn't really hate Miss Ruan Qi, what do you do to make people annoyed by doing these boring things." There is no harm in this bottle of beauty cream, but it is extremely itchy, which has only provoked Miss Seven's disgust, and it will not be remedied in the future, so I am helping him. โ
Baizhu pouted, a little incredulous: "No, it won't be, right?" He will never ......"
Doctor Fu threw the scissors in his hand, walked to the room, and said, "The sun has set, and it's a little dim. Hmph, is there anything important to think about, just in case? Even if it's not interesting, what's the point of playing tricks on a little girl. โ
But no matter what the process was, after this incident, Dr. Fu received an unprecedented welcome in Ruan's mansion, and every day Zhao and her sisters would go to her to talk, talk about beauty scriptures, and ask for small recipes or something. In fact, Dr. Fu can fully understand the official dialect, and even An Geun doubts that she can speak, but it is just because she doesn't want to speak the official dialect with an accent, affect the image, and put on a show.
An Jin solved the red seal, and on the third morning, he happily set off with his mother Zhao and Ruan Anmei and Ruan Antong to go to the begging meeting. Ruan Antan has already been engaged, and she will get married at the end of the year, and she has already won enough money in the first two years, so she is too lazy to join in the fun, so she stays at home to take care of housework and does not participate.
accompanied by Ruan Anshu, the sixth lady of the big house. Ruan Anshu is a few months younger than Ruan Antong, and she is also eleven years old, and her biological mother, Aunt Liu, used to be the old lady's personal big girl, and she still has some face in front of the old lady. This time, the eldest lady was sick, and the two sisters-in-law were pregnant, but the old lady specially instructed the Zhao family to let her take Ruan Anshu to participate in the begging party, and also gave her a look at each other.
But it's not a good idea. Ruan Anshu has a well-behaved temperament and a beautiful appearance, but standing beside the three sisters Ruan Anmei, Ruan Antong and Ruan Anjian, who have their own merits, they are as pale as white water, even if they are wearing a pink leno skirt embroidered with gold threads, and they have a pink diamond comb given by their grandmother on their heads.
Zhao caught a glimpse of the pink diamond comb and snorted very disdainfully, which made the little girl who was very eye-catching really tremble. Seeing this, Ruan Anmei stepped forward and squeezed her hand, coaxing her to smile shyly.
