Chapter 2: Unrecognizable
Rong's mother returned home, Song Lingyue had already made breakfast, saw her come back, hurriedly walked out of the house, took the basket in her hand, handed a towel, and asked her to wipe the sweat on her forehead.
Rong Ma wiped her forehead, followed Song Lingyue into the house, and said mysteriously: "Miss, I met a medicine seller in the market today, saying that it is an ancestral secret recipe that can cure scars, and I bought a pack for you, maybe it can cure the scars on your face!" ”
Song Lingyue didn't care much about the scar on her face, but she didn't expect Rong's mother to be quite attentive, she lifted the bowl of food on the table, and said with a smile: "Actually, I don't care too much, I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money to cure, so don't bother." ”
Rong's mother was not happy, "How can you do it, you are so young, you are already beautiful, how can you not protect your face well." ”
I was afraid that if I said this seriously, it would make Song Lingyue sad, so she softened her tone and said: "In this world, it is not easy for women to survive, and they must take care of themselves." ”
Song Lingyue didn't want to live up to Rong's mother's hard work, so she nodded with a smile, "Okay, then I'll give it a try, maybe it's useful!" ”
Xia Mansion, Mu Xue got up early in the morning, didn't see Xia Yeqing's figure, there was no trace of him sleeping next to him, and he didn't notice anything unusual on his body, he couldn't help but feel lost, and at the same time blamed himself, he shouldn't have drunk too much wine last night, he was disappointed, and the newlywed didn't stay overnight.
Chun Tao knocked on the door outside, saying that the uncle was waiting for her to go to the main courtyard to greet the old lady, Mu Xue didn't dare to delay, hurriedly washed, changed into a festive cheongsam, and followed Chun Tao downstairs.
Xia Yeqing stood at the staircase on the first floor and waited for her, the first time he asked for peace after the wedding, he wore a royal blue begonia embroidered gown, a delicate and white face, and added a touch of elegance to the cold temperament, and was even more handsome and extraordinary.
"Xue'er, you are very beautiful today, and the red color really sets off your snow-white skin." Xia Yeqing praised, and a very gentlemanly stretched out his hand and helped her down the stairs.
Mu Xue's face flushed with two blushes, he was so gentle and considerate, he definitely didn't mean to treat her coldly last night, he wanted to ask him about last night, but in this way, he left it all behind, but there was a little more sweetness in his heart, she really didn't marry the wrong person.
The two newcomers followed everyone to say goodbye, and gave tea to the old lady and the old lady, and Xia Yeqing introduced the family to Mu Xue one by one, and the family knew each other and re-accepted the new Mrs. Xia.
The old lady and the old lady's attitude towards Mu Xue was naturally different from that towards Song Lingyue, not only did they pack a large amount of red envelopes, but also left them alone for breakfast, and even the other rooms didn't dare to say anything, after all, the status of the Mu family was there, even if it was not as good as the Xia family, it was not something they could comment on, so they naturally didn't dare to offend.
After eating, Xia Yeqing sent Mu Xue back to the East Courtyard, under the pretext that the customs still had urgent affairs waiting for him to deal with, he took Adjutant Zhang out of the mansion, even if Mu Xue was not happy, he did not dare to stop him from handling official business, so he had to stay at home alone.
The eldest lady knew that her son had married his wife again, so she ran out of the bamboo house early in the morning, holding the leftover wedding cakes from last night in both hands, and ran into the east courtyard happily.
At the wedding yesterday, the old lady was afraid that she would cause trouble, so she didn't let her attend, and she didn't let her go this morning, she couldn't wait for a long time, although she was delirious, her son married his daughter-in-law and still understood, this was a big deal, she had to go and see.
Mu Xue was directing her subordinates to place the ornaments she brought in the living room, and the eldest lady rushed in without a clue, saw her new daughter-in-law at a glance, handed her the wedding cake in her hand, and said with a smile: "I specially left it for you to eat delicious." ”
Mu Xue didn't know the eldest lady, seeing that she was dressed well, but her tone was like a child of a few years old, she glanced at what she said was delicious, the two wedding cakes had been crumbled into a ball by her, and the slag fell on the carpet, frowned, covered her nose with a handkerchief, and said with a disgusted face: "Which room are you the wife in, why did you break in indiscriminately?" ”
The maid of the bamboo house chased after him, and when he saw that the eldest lady was making trouble, he was afraid that the new lady would be dissatisfied, so he stepped forward to hold the eldest lady left and right, and said to Mu Xue flatteringly: "Madam, this is the eldest lady, the uncle's mother, that is, your mother-in-law, the eldest lady is not very clear, don't be like her." ”
"Big lady!" Mu Xue was very surprised, "How could she be like this?" ”
She only heard rumors from outside, saying that Xia Yeqing's mother was born in everyone, and she had been to the United States, and her health had not been good in the past few years, so she didn't leave home, but she didn't know that she had such a problem, no wonder she didn't attend the wedding yesterday.
The servant nodded, not explaining too much, but said, "The time for the eldest lady to take the medicine is almost coming, so let's invite her back first." "Forcibly pulling the eldest lady to withdraw.
The eldest lady had a little temper, twisted her body and refused to go out, stretched her hand forward hard, screaming in her mouth, insisting on handing the wedding cake to Mu Xue.
Mu Xue was taken aback by her like this, subconsciously took a step back, and waved her hand in disgust, "Take the eldest lady out quickly, I still have to be busy setting things up, I can't take care of her." ”
The eldest lady glanced at her in confusion and pouted her lips dissatisfiedly, "It's not good, she's not good, it's better for Xiaoyue!" I want Satsuki! Shouting Xiaoyue in his mouth, he raised his hand and threw the crumbs of the wedding cake at Mu Xue.
Mu Xue exclaimed in fright, hurriedly stepped back, her high heels were crooked, and she fell to the ground, covered in a body of cake dregs, embarrassed.
"Oops! Big lady, this is your daughter-in-law, how can you do this! Come back with us! The servant snorted softly, grabbed the eldest lady tightly, and dragged her out.
The eldest lady struggled with her body, and when she walked out of the door, she didn't forget to turn around and mutter, "It's not good, I don't want her, I want Xiaoyue, what about Xiaoyue?" Where did you hide her? ”
The servant saw that she was starting to go crazy again, shook her head helplessly, and couldn't move lightly, and even coaxed her to take her out of the east courtyard.
Chun Tao heard the movement and ran into the living room, and when she saw Mu Xue squatting on the ground, she knew that the eldest lady was in trouble again, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, and coaxed her with kind words: "Madam, the eldest lady is not like this on weekdays, don't be angry." ”
Mu Xue's aggrieved eyes were red, her mother-in-law was obviously a madman, but Xia Yeqing didn't say a word about it, so that she suffered such grievances in public, it seems that she hasn't treated her as a family yet, and she can't deal with a madman, she can't complain, this family is really too much.
"In the future, keep the door tight, and don't let the eldest lady break in." Mu Xue hatefully ordered, got up and dusted off the slag on her clothes, and went up to the second floor angrily.
Chun Tao shook her head, this Mrs. Xia is really a pampered eldest lady, she can't stand any grievances, compared to Song Lingyue's attitude towards the eldest lady, she is really too far behind.
The medicine seller carefully told Rong's mother that the powder should be mixed with warm water, and then evenly applied to the face, and after a sleep, it would be effective the next day.
Song Lingyue followed the method said by Rong's mother, washed properly after dinner, mixed the powder, applied it to her face, and went to bed.
At first, I didn't feel anything, but then I felt that my face was hot, but it wasn't very uncomfortable, the smell of the powder was still very good, and it seemed to have a hypnotic effect, Song Lingyue sniffed and sniffed, and fell asleep.
When she woke up the next morning, Song Lingyue felt a hot pain on her face, reached out and touched it, and felt that her face was slimy and seemed to be bloody, so she hurriedly got up and looked in the mirror.
In the mirror was a bloody face, like a candle had been roasted, the flesh was still rolling, the mouth was covered with thick water, and the face was rotten beyond recognition, very terrifying.
"Ahh Song Lingyue screamed, fainted with fear from her face.
Rong's mother heard the movement and ran into her room, and when she saw Song Lingyue's appearance on the ground, her heart contracted violently in fright, her eyes were dark, and she almost fainted, and it took a long time to calm down, and she rushed out of the house in a hurry, shouting for help everywhere, if Song Lingyue's face was ruined, she didn't want to live.
