Chapter 31: The Uninvited Guest (Revised)
Early the next morning, Gan Peilin washed and dressed up as usual and changed into a set of bright clothes.
In the spring, those older women especially like to see their girls dressed brightly. It seems that they can compete with the beauty of the branches.
"Miss likes elegant colors the most, but lately the old lady has always asked people to send some bright colors." Crispy Core looked at the young lady in front of him, and his cheeks were slightly red: "But our young lady is the most outstanding beauty in this house, and she looks good in anything." ”
"Isn't it?" Liu Rumei took the stubble and walked in with a drooping face. "It's so nice to be young, when I was a girl, I also liked such delicate and bright colors."
"Mrs. Sixth, what's wrong?" Gan Peilin saw that her face was not good, so he asked the crispy core to serve tea. "You're in your prime now, and you're in your best shape. I don't lose to a young girl at all. ”
"It's sweet in your mouth." Liu Rumei smiled reluctantly, and lowered the corners of her mouth in displeasure. "The old lady has only been back for the past two days, and you don't see how much I have been wronged. Not to mention anything else, the subordinates of the Mansion don't take our mother and son seriously. I took Yu Ze to greet her, and Yu Ze played greedily and knocked down a pot of spring flowers in the yard, which is good, and the minions all over the yard rushed to clean up the pot of flowers, and no one checked how Yu Ze was. Isn't my panzer as important as a pot of flowers? ”
Gan Peilin took the tea cup from the crispy core and brought it to Liu Rumei's hand: "Take a sip of tea and dissipate your anger." Grandmother is getting older, and it is inevitable that she will have some temper. The people who served her were also old servants who were familiar with her habits, and I thought that there was some extraordinary significance to coming to that pot of flowers. ”
"No matter how ...... it is," Liu Rumei wanted to say, no matter how meaningful the flowers are, they are not more important than children. But when the words came to her lips, she swallowed again. "That's it, she doesn't like us, we don't go to her to be an eyesore."
At this time, a few little girls came in with trays, and two delicate round bowls were placed on each tray.
"Miss, this is the rouge gouache sent by the old lady." Chunyan, the servant standing in front, saluted, and then explained obediently: "It is said to be the most popular color in the imperial city, so you can change it." ”
"Grandmother is really attentive." Gan Peilin stroked his face: "It just so happens that I haven't powdered yet, can my aunt choose a box for me?" ”
Liu Rumei nodded slightly, walked over and looked at everything: "This box of hibiscus powder made up by Rong Jing is good." The powder is delicate and fragrant and intoxicating. Your complexion is already fair, and you look good in this designated white and red. It's hard for the old lady to think about you, and give you the best in everything. ”
"Crispy core, go and bring the box of jasmine cloud powder in my makeup." Gan Peilin picked up the bowl of hibiscus powder and handed it to Liu Rumei. "Since you like it, take it back and use it slowly."
"Me?" Liu Rumei didn't want it much: "This is given to you by the old lady." ”
"What's the difference between mine and yours." The corners of Gan Peilin's lips curled slightly.
Liu Rumei was more comfortable at this time, and took it with a smile: "After all, you still think about me." ”
At this time, the crispy core had already taken the jasmine cloud net powder, and used the densest Linghu short hair to puff some as usual. "Miss, the slave is dusting you."
"Okay." Gan Peilin sat down gently, and powdered her by the crispy core. Then he smiled and told the servants in the room to retreat.
As soon as the person went out, her face changed. "Crisp core, go check it out."
"Yes." The crispy core will understand, and he will withdraw neatly.
"How?" Liu Rumei felt that something was wrong, and asked with some curiosity.
Gan Peilin smiled: "You'll know later." ”
It was a moment of effort, and the crispy core returned: "Everything is as the eldest lady expected, that fox really showed its tail!" ”
