Xiaolian walked into Shi Qingqian's house with her newly made spring clothes, and saw her squatting on the ground, grinding something with a stone mortar.

"Miss, you've been tossing around for days, what are you doing?" Xiaolian leaned over curiously, and saw a few bunches of yellow-green weeds scattered on the ground, so she picked up a bunch and looked at it carefully, "Miss, what is this?" ”

Shi Qingqian watched Xiaolian's movements, and saw that she was about to break the blades of grass, so he hurriedly reached over to block her movements, "Don't break it!" ”

Seeing Shi Qingqian's serious expression, Xiaolian was startled, "Miss, what is this?" ”

She took the weed off Xiaolian's hand with her hand wrapped in white yarn, and was especially careful not to let herself touch the back of Xiaolian's hand, Shi Qingqian smiled, "This thing, called Five Clouds, is dried and used in medicine, which can clear away heat and dissolve phlegm, relieve cough and asthma, but ...... If it touches the milky white liquid inside it...... It can make the skin red and even ulcerate! ”

"Huh?" When Xiaolian heard this, she exhaled in fright.

When Shi Qingqian saw Xiaolian reflect like this, he thought she was very cute, so he deliberately scared her and said: "There are those over there, it is a big scorpion grass, the scientific name is big nettle, and the main medicinal treatment is cough, but if it is swept by a poisonous beard, what ...... on your body" said, pointing to Xiaolian's smooth neck, and his tone suddenly increased, "But it's going to be covered with red rashes, and the itch is unbearable!" ”

"Miss!" Xiaolian screamed and ran away, not forgetting to drag Shi Qingqian, "Such a dangerous thing, what is Miss still grinding it for!" Slaves and maids just throw them out! ”

"Hey, don't, don't," Shi Qingqian hurriedly stopped the flamboyant Xiaolian, "If you throw this away, the wicked person will not get the retribution she deserves." ”

Hearing this, Xiaolian quieted down and asked with puzzlement, "Miss...... The slave didn't understand. ”

Shi Qingqian smiled comfortingly, "You'll understand in a few days, Xiaolian, have you bought what I asked you to buy?" ”

Xiaolian pouted and nodded, and took out a delicate white jade bottle from her arms, "Xiaolian ran to several rouge shops before she found something that matched Miss's heart, just such a small bottle, it was worth fifty taels of silver...... The boss said that it was only this bottle, and the slave maid brought it back. ”

Shi Qingqian looked at the jade bottle in Xiaolian's hand, and she lifted the lid of the bottle, revealing the alabaster inside that was as transparent as mutton fat jade. "Okay, let's take it and melt it through the hot water."

"Huh? This ......" Xiaolian was puzzled, "The store said that this alabaster is very precious, and it can be used to wipe the face to make the face look like a newborn baby, why did you return it......"

Shi Qingqian continued to bow his head and grind the stone mortar in his hand, and did not look at Xiaolian, "What I gave to 'good sister', I naturally have to add some of my own thoughts." ”

Just as Xiaolian nodded her head in understanding, Xue Ying came in with a large bag of things.

A few days ago, Shi Yuan relieved Xue Ying's punishment, and today she was called out by Shi Qingqian to look for something, and after looking for most of the day, she came back.

As soon as he entered the door, Xue Ying shouted as if he was invited: "Miss! I've found everything you've asked me for! ”

"Ying'er, what do you have in your pocket?" Xiaolian curiously leaned over to check, but saw that there were all treasures and pearls in her pocket, and the style and value were very different.

"Miss, do you see if there is a suitable one?" Xue Ying spread things out on the table.

When the two saw Xiaolian's puzzled face, Xue Ying explained with a smile: "In another half a month, it will be the art fair, and Miss asked me to find some dusty cleaning in the warehouse, and I want to distribute it to the three young ladies of the Hou Mansion." ”

"I see, the young lady's alabaster is also going to be distributed to them?" Xiaolian pursed her lips, "Why do you have to give such a valuable thing to them......

At this time, Shi Qingqian had already divided two sets of jewelry, "This set is Shi Peng's, this set is Shi Zhenxiang's, Xiaolian, you go and put it on the plate, tomorrow's alabaster will be ready, and call them all over to divide them in time." ”

Shi Qingqian is naturally not the kind of fool who can repay grievances with virtue, and she will not simply go to see the moves, she has already planned and set the moment of counterattack at the competition.

At the art fair, Shi Shu Ning was determined to participate, so he mixed the juice of five clouds and large nettles into the alabaster that wiped his face. Although the two can fight poison with poison, there will always be a toxic erosion after long-term use, and she has already calculated the time, and when the toxicity attacks, it is around the time of the competition.

Early the next morning, Shi Qingqian called the two young ladies in the house. Shi Shuning excused his mother's ill health and did not come. This is also in line with her temperament, and she has always avoided all kinds of disputes in the house in the past.

It's hard to guarantee that she won't do anything secretly.

Although Shi Peng and Shi Zhenxiang each secretly had their own careful thoughts, after all, it was Miss Yan's face, and they had to give it.

Shi Zhenxiang is as dignified as ever. Shi Peng hadn't seen her for a few days, and she was wearing a plain dress as if she was a little cleaner, and the expression on her face at this time seemed to separate herself from others, and her posture was even more arrogant than Shi Shuning.

Seeing her so self-controlled, Shi Qingqian wanted to lose his face, "The fourth sister is dressed in plain clothes and doesn't use powder, why does she look a lot thinner, so lifeless, but how can I participate in the art competition?" ”

Shi Peng's face was pale, he had been holding the shelf for a long time, and she was said to be 'emaciated' and 'lifeless', and she couldn't help but be angry, and her tone was also provocative, "I'm like this, my sister who happened to be in the province thought I was going to compete with you for scenery." ”

It's a good one, Shi Qing said in his heart. It was Shi Peng who was racking her brains to fight with her, but she was told that she was like a villain.

But she still happily accepted Shi Peng's self-surrender identity, and said happily: "The fourth sister can have this thought, and we have saved a lot of trouble before." ”

Shi Peng's face darkened and he no longer argued.

Shi Qingqian waved his hand and asked Xiaolian and Xue Ying to bring up the prepared things, "The four of us are sisters, and the competition is coming, so I naturally have to say something," he said, motioning for the two to divide the things between the two. "The fourth sister and the fifth sister move around a lot, and the things given to the fifth sister have to be handed over by the fourth sister."

Shi Peng looked at the jewelry on her plate, and only felt that Shi Qingqian was fooling her, really when she hadn't seen anything good, but she wanted to let her anger come out through Shi Shu's hair, and asked angrily: "Why did the fourth sister just give the fifth sister a bottle?" I am wronged for my fifth sister. ”

"The fifth sister tastes elegant, I am only afraid that the jewelry I choose will not match her mind, so I gave the alabaster that the fifth princess gave me to the fifth sister." Shi Qingqian was afraid that Shi Shuning would be suspicious, so he put his tone as gently as possible, "Although the two sisters don't have this precious alabaster cream, they also have a good rouge ......"

"Sister, thank you for your kindness." Shi Zhenxiang smiled softly, and seemed to cherish the tray to the little maid to accept.

Shi Qingqian didn't want to spend more time with them, so he sent the two back after sending the things.

As soon as Shi Peng returned to his side yard, he angrily swept the tray on the table to the ground in one fell swoop. "Even such a precious alabaster was given to Shi Shuning, but Shi Qingqian used this kind of rag to fool me!"

Zhu Qing was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, and the whole person trembled, "Fourth Miss, don't be angry, beware of being angry......"

Shi Peng's hideous face gradually soothed, a gloomy light appeared in his eyes, and even his voice became gloomy, "Didn't Shi Qingqian say that I wasn't angry, this alabaster came at the right time......"

"Miss, do you want to ......," Zhuqing asked tentatively.

"Shi Shu condenses her natural beauty, so borrow this precious alabaster for me."
