Chapter 149: Visitation
Inside the wings.
Xiao Mannong sat in front of the bronze mirror and carefully looked at his face and makeup, then turned his head and asked the maid beside him: "Qiuzhu, is this princess good-looking?"
Qiu Zhu stood beside Xiao Mannong, and said with a courteous smile: "Princess, of course you are very good-looking, you are the most beautiful person I have ever seen."
After hearing this, the corners of Xiao Mannong's mouth rose, picked up a piece of jewelry in the dressing box, and said, "I've rewarded you." ”
Qiu Zhu was overjoyed, took the jewelry with a smile on his face, and said, "Princess Xie!" By the way, princess, there is still one last medicine left for you that Doctor Hu has developed, and the smell on your body can completely disappear after you finish eating, and the slave will go and bring it to you. ”
Qiu Zhu found a medicine bottle, poured a pill, and gave it to Xiao Mannong.
"Princess." A maid's voice sounded outside the door.
"Enter."
The maid lowered her head and walked in quickly, "See the princess." ”
Xiao Mannong got up, glanced at the maid, and said lightly, "What's the matter?"
"Princess, the housewife of the Guan family and the old lady of the Guan family ask to meet." The maid lowered her head and said resignedly.
Xiao Mannong raised his eyes, his eyes revealing doubts. What are the housewives of the Guan family and the old lady of the Guan family doing when they come to find this princess? Doctor Hu had just finished detoxifying the toxins in the princess's body on the front foot, and the two of them came to the princess on the back foot. But since they came, the princess went to see what they were up to.
Xiao Mannong thought about it, and replied, "Then let them in." ”
"Yes."
After the maid retreated, after a while, Xiao Yingan came to the door with the old lady of the Guan family in her arms.
"Meet the princess."
"The old man greets the princess."
Duan Yingan and the old lady of the Guan family said at the same time.
"Come in, it's hot outside the door, come in and have a cup of tea to relieve the heat." Xiao Mannong got up and walked outside the door, saying with a smile that he greeted Duan Yingan and the old lady of the Guan family.
The old lady of the Guan family laughed a few kindly, and while letting Duan Yingan support her, she held Xiao Mannong's hand and said with a smile: "The princess hasn't seen her for a long time, and she is a lot more beautiful!"
After hearing this, Xiao Mannong smiled, and said with a crooked corner of his eyes: "How can there be?" The old lady is afraid that she is mistaken, but Mrs. Guan, I haven't come to talk to this princess for a long time, I haven't seen you for a long time, Mrs. Guan's skin is a lot more delicate, and I must tell this princess how you maintain it another day. ”
Duan Ying'an heard Xiao Mannong mention himself, so he laughed a few times and said, "It's not that I've been busy lately, so I don't have time to visit you, princess, look, didn't I come?" I also brought an apology gift to the princess. ”
Duan Yingan said with a smile on her face, but secretly thought in her heart, this Xiao Mannong was secretly saying that I didn't come to visit her during her poisoning. I've heard that when she was poisoned, she emitted a foul smell that even the maid didn't dare to approach.
Duan Ying'an smiled without smiling, called the maid next to her and brought the gift she had prepared, handed it to Xiao Mannong, and said with a smile: "Princess, look, this is the beauty cream that I and Yilang have prepared for you, apply it to your face, it will make your skin moisturized, delicate and fair!" The princess sits down, and I'll paint it on you. ”
Xiao Man was overjoyed, sat down, and Ren Duan Yingan applied beauty cream to her face. After absorbing it, Duan Yingan pretended to be surprised and said, "Ah, princess, do you see that your face is getting better and better?"
After hearing this, Xiao Mannong hurriedly ordered Qiu Zhu to bring her a bronze mirror, looked left and right, and said with a smile: "This is really, this princess thanks Mrs. Guan and Ling Lang for their beauty cream."
Old Madam Guan and Duan Yingan looked at each other for a while, and praised Xiao Mannong vigorously, Xiao Mannong was happy when she listened, although she knew that this was Duan Yingan and Old Madam Guan's sycophancy, but they were still very useful.
After Duan Ying'an and Mrs. Guan left, Xiao Mannong hurriedly ordered Qiu Zhu to close the door, and then carefully looked at himself in the bronze mirror again, and said happily: "Qiu Zhu, has this princess's face really become better?"
Qiu Zhu picked up the comb, combed Xiao Mannong's long hair, and said with a smile: "The princess herself is good-looking, and now she is wearing beauty cream, which is even more icing on the cake."
After Xiao Mannong heard this, he was even happier. She suddenly thought of something, quickly stood up, walked around the room, and then said to Qiuzhu: "Qiuzhu, hurry up and show this princess, is my dress good-looking, is this makeup exquisite?"
Qiu Zhu was puzzled, and then suddenly realized, hid his face and said with a smile: "The princess is going to find the sixth master, right?"
Xiao Mannong chattered, his face was dyed with a touch of red, and said, "Don't make fun of Princess Ben, hurry up and help me take a look."
Qiu Zhu looked around Xiao Mannong and said, "Princess, it's very beautiful, there's nothing missing."
"That's good, go to the kitchen and get the sixth brother's favorite pastry, go quickly."
"Yes." After a while, Qiu Zhu brought several pots of pastries and put them in the lunch box, and then Xiao Mannong and Qiu Zhu took the pastries to Guan Annan and Luo Xueshen's courtyard.
When she arrived outside the courtyard gate, Xiao Mannong asked Qiu Zhu to confirm her dress, and then after making sure that she walked to the courtyard gate and said softly, "Sixth brother? Are you there? I'm here to bring you pastries. ”
The courtyard was silent.
Xiao Mannong frowned, isn't the sixth brother here? At this moment, a sweeping maid came, Xiao Mannong stopped her and asked, "Where did the sixth brother go?"
The maid said: "The slave doesn't know, it seems that the sixth master has gone out."
Xiao Mannong was lost for a while, and walked back with his head bowed all the way.
Kanfu.
Duan Yingan was drinking tea with Guan Yilang in the garden, and after Duan Yingan chatted with Guan Yilang for a while, he suddenly asked, "Yilang, I heard that the princess is already well."
Guan Yilang raised his head and asked, "Which princess?"
Duan Yingan said: "It's the one who was poisoned and then emitted a stench all over his body."
Guan Yilang stood up from the tea table, walked to a cluster of flowers, picked one, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said with a sloppy face: "What does that matter to me?"
When Duan Yingan heard this, she was unhappy in her heart, and hurriedly said, "Why is this none of your business?"
Duan Yingan stepped forward, snatched the flower in Guan Yilang's hand, threw it on the ground, and then said: "I just went to the princess with the old lady, and then gave the princess a bottle of beauty cream in your name, you go to the princess in a few days to take a look, pass by the princess's eyes, please the princess, maybe the princess will take a fancy to you, and then you will become the princess's concubine!" The princess is the emperor's favorite sister, and if you become a concubine, it will be infinitely beautiful, and even my Guanfu will be stained! ”
The more Duan Yingan spoke, the more excited she became, she seemed to have imagined her future in the future, and the prestige of the Guan Mansion had also risen to a higher level.
After Guan Yilang heard this, the collapse on his face disappeared, and in his mind, a delicate girl was smiling, with a pair of bright big eyes, a tall nose and a small mouth, and the clothes on her body looked even better under her beautiful face.
Guan Yilang thought, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
Duan Yingan saw Guan Yilang's appearance, thought that he had agreed to his proposal, and was about to speak, when he heard Guan Yilang say to her: "Mother, let's forget about this matter."
As he spoke, he turned and left the garden.
