Chapter 35 Riding a Tiger Is Difficult
The atmosphere in the room was a little weird, Feng Yao felt a little uncomfortable, but Mrs. Ran just lay on the bed without saying a word, most of her facial features were covered, only the eyes and forehead were exposed, but those eyes were always staring at Feng Yao's body, she didn't speak, she didn't lose her temper, she just stared like that, staring stupidly for a long time.
"That...... Mrs. Ran, I know it's all our fault for making you what you are now. It's a little too late to ask for your forgiveness now, if you want to punish or scold, even if you open your mouth, I, Xiao Fengyao, will definitely not have the slightest ambiguity! However, Madam Ran, with all due respect, you must not be too sad because of this face now. In my experience, this is an allergy, and it will get better in a few days. I can guarantee it! It's just that if you want to punish me, it's not that your face is not worth a heavy punishment, it's just that we have just arrived in the capital for a few days, and we haven't done much business, and we really can't get it out if we punish too much! As for the two hundred taels of gold you gave me, I'm really sorry, it's not that I don't want to give it, it's just that because of Du Shifan's urgency at that time, I was in too much hurry to bring it. Feng Yao lowered her head in the direction of Du Yuexian, she had sold rouge gouache for so many years, it was the first time she had encountered such a thing, it would have been okay if she had been an ordinary person, but when she ran into this rich lady, Feng Yao only thought that she was unlucky.
"I don't want the gold!" Du Yuexian's cold words startled Feng Yao, she raised her head to meet Du Yuexian's gaze and asked worriedly, "Huh?" What the...... What do you mean? ”
"It's not interesting, I mean I don't need you to return the two hundred taels of gold. Du Yuexian got up slowly, she was wearing a light middle coat that seemed to be faintly visible to the flesh, the goose-yellow tulle swayed back and forth with her graceful posture, she walked in front of Feng Yao with gentle steps, a strong aroma made Feng Yao want to sneeze, she rubbed her nose twice or held back.
"No...... Got it? Feng Yao couldn't believe his ears.
"I think your condensation ointment is very good, the gold is the money to buy this ointment, since I have received something, how can I return the silver? If this spreads, what will happen to me Du Yuexian in the capital? A beam of fierce gaze shot at Feng Yao, and she couldn't help but shudder.
"Yes...... Your ......" Feng Yao's mind was thinking rapidly, this Mrs. Ran in front of her didn't want money, then there must be something else, otherwise she wouldn't have asked Du Shifan to find herself, let alone let everyone on the left and right retreat! But obviously, this is far more difficult for her to explain than to return the gold and silver! But she Feng Yao has just arrived, not to mention that she has no foundation in the capital, even if she has, it is impossible to compare with the lady Ran in front of her! So what could she do on her own? "What does Mrs. Ran mean?" Feng Yao asked cautiously.
"I don't mean anything, it's just that you're selling rouge powder, and that's exactly what I need. To tell you the truth, I have used a lot of rouge in the capital, even if it is something from Linglong Pavilion, I don't know how much I have used. People outside say that I have a good way to maintain it, but I know my own problems. To be honest, I don't have any eternal youth, nor do I have any skin like cream, I just hope I can live like a normal person. Du Yuexian's cold eyes spewed out a nameless fire, and Feng Yao was startled, "Live like a normal person?" This is too funny, right, on a day when she seems to be windy and rainy, and she said that she wants to live like a normal person? But also, her life is not something that ordinary normal people can live. ”
Du Yuexian seemed to see Feng Yao's doubts, she stood upright in front of Feng Yao, one hand gently lifted Feng Yao's chin, so that her eyes were facing her face, and the other hand unveiled the veil on her face. Feng Yao just looked at it and lowered her head suddenly, her hand gently rubbing the placket twice.
"Right...... I'm sorry...... If Madame is not wrong with your previous gelatin, I can probably assume that Madame may have caused it due to the allergy to the newly added geranium. Feng Yao was a little unbearable.
"Geranium ......," Du Yuexian muttered in a low voice.
"Yes, it's this thing, this is not very common in normal times, but my father added it because he thought it would be better for the skin. Maybe it's this thing that is called Madame's face......" Feng Yao looked at Du Yuexian's face covered with red spots again, which really made her kind heart full of guilt and self-blame.
"My face...... You think I'm ugly with these spots, don't you? Du Yuexian smiled contemptuously, her hand stroked her face gently, maybe it was a little itchy, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly.
"Huh? …… No...... This one...... Madame, don't worry, this will be fine soon......" Feng Yao was busy explaining.
"Actually, I don't think these things are so hateful, after all, like you said, they don't stay on my face for long, so I have nothing to worry about! But what if that's the case? Du Yuexian's fingers were lightly picked at the corners of her mouth, and a piece of skin was completely torn off by her, Feng Yao watched all this she did in amazement, unexpectedly, there was no scene of blood flowing, but a scar the size of a little finger was across her eyes. Although the scar is not big, it is on the face, and compared to those red spots, this one is even more speechless!
"Madam, what are you ......?"
"This is an old scar from many years ago, and for so many years, I have been trying to remove it in various ways, but unfortunately, nothing has worked. Strangely, I used the gel you sent me in the morning, and although I quickly grew these spots, the strange thing is that the scar seems to have faded a little, at least, it is not as bright as before, you say, should I be happy or sad? Du Yuexian stared at Feng Yao, with a terrifying smile in her eyes, Feng Yao took two steps back, she only felt that this woman was a little crazy.
"Madame...... This is...... Maybe it's because of this skin cream...... Feng Yao didn't know how to explain it, she didn't know that this skin cream had this effect, and she didn't know that this Mrs. Ran had such a scar! She now asks herself, is she blaming or praising her?
"That's right, it's this cream! I haven't changed the slightest bit in my attempts over the years, but this thing, I only used it once, and I felt the magic ......" Du Yuexian smiled at the corner of her mouth, but Feng Yao felt cold.
"Yes...... But your nephew didn't say ......"
"I can't hide it, this scar of mine is rarely known in the entire mansion, and that Du Shifan naturally doesn't know it!" Du Yuexian's tone was low and depressed, and Feng Yao trembled when he heard it. She gasped, and she couldn't stop complaining in her heart, "Since this scar is so private, Mrs. Ran just keeps it a secret herself, why do you want to tell her?" This famous Mrs. Ran has such a scar on her face, and she is known to such a nobody! Will her fate in the future be a dead end? ”
"I don't say it's because there's a reason why I can't say it, but now, I think this skin cream of yours might be able to make it disappear......" Du Yuexian stared at Feng Yao again.
"Since Madame thinks so, you might as well ...... You can also try. Feng Yao felt that his scalp was a little numb.
"Of course I want to try, but these spots on my face are also visible to the world...... The government has already invited Lang Zhong, and he also said that these are allergies of mine and will be fine soon, but if I want to continue to treat my scars with this cream, it is impossible to make these spots disappear so quickly......"
Feng Yao was simply confused by Du Yuexian's words, what did she mean? Do rich people talk like this? Can't you just be more blunt?
"So, I have to invite you here......" Du Yuexian's hand was on Feng Yao's shoulder, and she asked excitedly, "What can I help Mrs. Ran?" ”
"You can help me a lot! One, you can continue to provide me with cream, and second, you can also treat my scars as a shield! Du Yuexian put one hand on Feng Yao's shoulder, and there was a smile on her face.
"What?" Feng Yao was taken aback, this Mrs. Ran is really open-minded, she can say such a naked word?
"I know that this may have wronged you, but I will make it up to you somewhere else...... For example, silver...... Gold ......"
"Is this a deal?" Feng Yao asked.
"Sort of!" Du Yuexian nodded.
"How much gold can I get?" Feng Yao asked.
"It depends on your performance, and more importantly, on how well I recover from this scar." Du Yuexian touched her scar without concealment.
"And what do I have to give?" Feng Yao's heart was getting hard little by little.
"You are responsible for the spots on my face. Of course, you know, I don't mean to make them disappear...... In the meantime, you have to stay in the house! ”
"You're calling me to carry the black cauldron?!" Feng Yaodao.
"One thousand taels of silver!" Du Yuexian stretched out a finger.
"You also saw your maid's attitude just now, and your nephew, they are going to eat me like you now, if I can't tell you to get better as soon as possible, they ......"
"Two thousand taels of silver!" Du Yuexian stretched out two fingers.
"This ...... It's nothing to be scolded by them, but are you sure I won't be in any danger to my life? What if they band together to kill me? "Feng Yao is embarrassed.
