Ginkgo looked at Ling Xi's still red and swollen face in the room, and was a little puzzled, it had been almost half a month, and Ling Xi had used Dr. Xu's herbs every once in a while, allowing herself to sway around in the rain with such an ugly face, except for making Jiang Shuangxue anxious, it didn't seem to have any effect.

"Miss, it's almost enough, Aunt Leng was so frightened by you, she didn't dare to go out of the gate of Yilan Courtyard for several days, for fear of bumping into you, but Mrs. was in a hurry, Dr. Xu said that you are allergic to mosaic leaves, and Mrs. didn't care much, but it's been half a month, and your face hasn't improved yet, I'm afraid that Mrs. will ask the imperial doctor to come back to see you, and then you won't be able to play this trick." Ginkgo said with some concern.

"Aunt Leng is really so scared that she doesn't dare to go out?"

"That's not it, since that day Ling Fu sneakily at the door of our listening to Yuzhai, he glanced at you from a distance, your red and swollen face is afraid that he is scared a lot, I don't know what he said in Yilan Courtyard, Aunt Leng won't go out much, let alone see you, even if it is listening to Yuzhai and other people, Aunt Leng is hiding far away, as if she is afraid that she will have something to do with listening to Yuzhai."

"Finally, the hardships of these days have not been in vain, Aunt Leng is fine as long as her heart is weak, it is estimated that there will be no more moths in Yilan Courtyard recently, but Dr. Xu's herb still can't be stopped." A mysterious smile leaked from Ling Xi's face.

"Second Miss, you are so happy with a swollen face every day."

Ginkgo looked at Ling Xi puzzled, Ling Xi's face was indeed too uncomfortable, and if the care was not good and left a scar, it would be a big loss, and suddenly Ginkgo seemed to think of something. "Are you afraid that Aunt Leng will know that you are pretending to be sick?"

"Don't worry, if Aunt Leng suspected that I was pretending to be sick, she would have come to listen to Yuzhai to find out the truth, and now she is so scared that she doesn't dare to go out, it is estimated that she really believes that I am poisoned, and I am convinced that I don't know about her poisoning, I think they are probably lucky, thinking that Dr. Xu does not dare to say that I am poisoned, after all, Dr. Xu has been checking our pulse for many years, and the poison is from my cousin, how can a doctor dare to say lightly about the poisoning of this Miss Houfu Compound."

"Aunt Leng is smart, how much we have suffered from her, and Ling Fu, that is a personal essence, Second Miss, are you worried that they will doubt us, so you don't dare to stop this herb?"

"I don't think so, if things have to fail, Aunt Leng can't get out of it and because of Dr. Xu's selfishness, between this matter and the matter, Aunt Leng should prefer to believe the latter, because this is the best for her. It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the main thing is that Aunt Leng's flustered heart can be more stable, and Ling Fu is the same, smart people sometimes become stupid because of expectations. Or that they are not as smart as we imagined, but they are used to listening to Yuzhai and have never thought of dealing with Yilan Courtyard, so Aunt Leng has become such a powerful person in our memory. ”

"Miss, then why do you continue to use Dr. Xu's herbs?"

Ginkgo was even more confused, if it weren't for confusing Leng Qiuye, what kind of medicine was Ling Xi selling in this gourd? Ginkgo seemed to see from Ling Xi's confident face that she had other plans.

Ling Xi looked at the mirror, she picked up the white veil on the table and gestured it on her face, although her red, swollen and ugly face was indeed a little terrifying, but for her, this was exactly the effect she wanted.

Ling Xi looked out the window, it seemed that the maids were drying the books in the study, and suddenly Ling Xi saw a few paintings, and she immediately ran out of the house.

"Is this the calligraphy and painting in my brother's study?" Ling Xi picked up one of the calligraphy and paintings and looked at it carefully.

"Yes, Second Miss." A maid said, and after saying that, the maid hurried to get other books to dry.

"Miss, what's wrong with this painting?"

"It's nothing, a good painting will have a good story." After speaking, a strange smile leaked from Ling Xi's face.

"Ginkgo, has my brother returned home?"

"The eldest young master is in the Tai Academy, it seems that he has a lecture today, and it is estimated that he will not come back."

"Then you have to make a hard trip, go to the Tai Academy and tell my brother, and ask him to invite the young master of the Zhan family to the mansion for a gathering."

....................................................................................................................................................

Zhan Yu stood in front of the door of the Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion, today I don't know how, Ling Zhu invited him to come over the house, it stands to reason that the Zhan family is a wealthy family, and he will naturally not have a deep friendship with the concubine, but because the Pingyuan Marquis has no son-in-law, Ling Zhu, the eldest son of the concubine, entered Taixue, and Ling Zhu and Zhan Zhu became classmates.

Although Zhan Zhu and Ling Zhu are at most nodding friends in Tai Academy on weekdays, after all, Zhan Meng has a marriage contract with Ling Xi, the young lady of Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, and Ling Zhu opened his mouth to invite him to come over, and he is not easy to postpone, so he will come to the appointment today.

Zhan Zhu looked up and saw that Ling Zhu was already waiting for him in front of the Hou Mansion, and after Ling Zhu and Zhan Yu exchanged a few words, they welcomed Zhan Zhu into the Hou Mansion, and in Ling Zhu's study, Ling Zhu and Zhan Zhu were still discussing yesterday's Taixue lecture. To be honest, Ling Zhu is one of the few people in the Tai Academy who has some knowledge. If Ling Zhu wasn't a concubine, Zhan Yu actually wanted to have a good relationship with Ling Zhu.

Suddenly, Ling Xi slowly walked into Ling Zhu's study, she was holding a painting in her hand, and after entering the house and seeing Zhan Yu, she stopped and said slightly loudly in the outhouse: "It turns out that my brother has a guest here." ”

Zhan Yu looked back, only to see Ling Xi standing at the door of the outer study from afar, and suddenly he felt that something was wrong, after all, it was in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, if he was in the same room with his female dependents, how could he attract gossip, especially the son of a saint family, he would be charged with not being polite.

"Brother Ling Zhu, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first, and I'll come back to visit another day." After saying that, Zhan Yu was about to walk to the door.

"Brother Zhan doesn't have to mind, this is my second sister, and I also have a marriage contract with you, you will get married next year, and it is not rude to meet in my house."

Ling Zhu seemed to understand Zhan Chao's thoughts, and he deliberately said that Ling Xi and Zhan Chao had a marriage contract, so that Zhan Chao would not care too much about the number of etiquette.

When Zhan was puzzled, it turned out that the woman in the outhouse was Ling Xi, the woman who was married to him. Recently, it has been rumored in Yicheng that she is an ugly-looking person. Although Zhan Chao was born in the house of a saint and is not the kind of person who covets women, he can't help but be curious, what does his future daughter-in-law look like, is she really an ugly monster?

Zhan Yu also stopped, he began to look at Ling Xi standing in the outhouse from a distance, only to see Ling Xi wearing a green Dai Luo skirt, with green silk hanging down on his shoulders, judging from the appearance, at least Ling Xi, who has an even figure, does not seem to be as bad as rumored. However, Ling Xi's face was covered by a white veil, and Zhan Xuan couldn't really see her appearance at all.

"Brother Zhan, I suddenly remembered that I still have a celebrity notebook, which I happened to appreciate with you today, you are waiting for me here, I will come immediately." After speaking, Ling Zhu left the study quickly, and before leaving, he didn't forget to give Ling Xi a signaling look.

Zhan Yu felt even more inappropriate, after all, he and Ling Xi were not married yet, and the lonely men and widows were under the same roof, and there were some melons and plums. It stands to reason that he should walk out of the study immediately, but his curious heart is constantly beating, the Ling Xi in front of him is the woman who will accompany him for life in the future, he really wants to know what Ling Xi looks like, he knows that if he misses this opportunity, he can only see Ling Xi's appearance at the wedding, he is a little uneasy, or worried.

"Mr. Zhan, I have a painting here, I originally wanted to find my brother to give me some guidance, or Mr. Zhan would like to give me a mention or two."

Ling Xi slowly walked to Zhan Yu's side, she slowly spread out the painting in her hand, and a majestic landscape painting was presented in front of them, Zhan Yu took a closer look, and couldn't help but smile, this painting is his second uncle's masterpiece Zhan Yan, it seems that this Miss Yan of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion is interested in coming to this study.

Zhan Yu didn't expect Ling Xi to be so bold and dare to take the initiative to see his fiancé, and Ling Xi deliberately approached him a little bit on purpose, it was obvious that they were not in line with the etiquette law now. Zhan Yu took a few steps back in a bit of a panic, he deliberately distanced himself from Ling Xi, but as soon as he thought of the recent rumors about Ling Xi's appearance in Yicheng, he couldn't help but take the initiative to take a few steps closer to Ling Xi.

"The author of this painting is extremely bold in using ink, and the smudging technique is also extremely clever, I am afraid that it is from the hand of a famous artist."

Ling Xi was concentrating on appreciating this painting, but he was confused but absent-minded, he didn't listen to Ling Xi's words at all, all he cared about was what kind of dignity was under the white veil on Ling Xi's face.

"Well, this painting is a painting of my second uncle when he was young, I didn't expect Miss Ling to know how to paint very well." Zhan said perfunctorily, he didn't break Ling Xi, anyway, he also wanted to see Ling Xi's appearance.

"I just often hear my brother talk about painting, so I just know a little bit about it. I didn't expect this to be a painting by Master Zhanyan, but my appreciation ability was so poor that I didn't even see it. ”

Ling Xi also began to make difficulties, this exhibition was too conformist, he actually stood motionless beside her, trying to find a chance to push with him, and there was no chance to tear off his white veil, which was difficult.

"Miss Ling, you're polite, my second uncle was more frivolous when he was young, and his paintings at that time were rarely signed, Miss Ling couldn't see it, it's normal"

"It seems that Gongzi Zhan is also very good at painting, so it is better to give me some advice."

After saying that, Ling Xi deliberately approached Zhan Chao again, she pretended to stumble and didn't stand firm, and she was about to fall to the ground, Zhan Chao hurriedly stepped forward to help her, Ling Xi saw that the opportunity had come, and as soon as she pulled with Zhan Chao, she tore off the white veil on her face.

Ling Xi's red and swollen face immediately met Zhan Xi's eyes, Zhan Wei was indeed frightened by Ling Xi's face, he hurriedly let go of the arm that was still supporting Ling Xi just now, he stood motionless in surprise.

Ling Xi saw Zhan Tong's expression, it seemed that Zhan Qi was as she wished, and was completely stupid by her ugly face, this Zhan Qian was afraid that there were ten thousand people in his heart who were unwilling to marry her, Ling Xi's big eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.
