Chapter Ninety-Nine: Turning Decay into Magic
The light veil brushed his cheeks, and Zhongli couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, while Atina gasped.
But the people below couldn't help it for a long time, and sighed with a sigh of "Wow......".
Zhongli couldn't help but reach out and rub his forehead, smiled bitterly and looked at the group of people outside a little helplessly, and explained lightly, "It's just that I'm allergic, this young lady has an extraordinary appearance, everyone will know after a while." ”
Everyone looked at Zhongli, some believed, some didn't, some stood outside at this time waiting for Zhongli to make a fool of himself, and some wanted to see how Zhongli could turn decay into magic and turn this girl into a fairy.
And Xiao Yuanyuan also bit his lip, and looked at Zhongli with round eyes a little timidly, his little face flushed.
And the little guy next to him looked at his young lady unwillingly, "Miss, you can't do this, you have to know your identity, if someone knows, how good is this?" Besides, you were made like this in their house before, how can you continue to trust them? What if something happens to you? How are we going to explain it to the master? ”
The other party knelt down directly towards Xiao Yuanyuan and opened his mouth crying.
Zhongli snorted coldly, glanced at the other party disdainfully, sneered, and said unhappily, "Hmph, what a capable little guy, he can actually influence your master's thoughts, if our family had such a thing, we would have been killed a long time ago!" ”
When Xiao Yuanyuan heard this, he immediately looked at Zhongli with a red face, and after gritting his teeth, he closed his eyes and waved his hand at the little guy, and said angrily, "Why are you still stunned?" Why don't you step down? Are you the master or am I the master? ”
The little guy gritted his teeth and glared at Zhongli with some resentment, but he didn't dare to speak, so he could only hide in the corner next to him and come out as a protector, in fact, he was ready, as long as Zhongli couldn't cure the master, he would report to the official immediately.
"Atina, now go get me some leeks and eggs." Zhong Lizai looked at the other party's cheeks carefully, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, okay, okay, not the most serious.
Not to mention Atina, even the onlookers outside couldn't help but ask, "What can leeks and eggs do?" ”
"Yes, yes, we eat a lot! Is this a cure? ”
……
Everyone was very happy to discuss what you said, but they ignored Zhongli and Xiao Yuanyuan inside.
Atina had been in the Zhong family for so long, and she had already known Zhongli's use of many home remedies, and when she heard this, she immediately smiled and happily went out to look for something, but before she went out, she saw someone enthusiast handing it over, "I have eggs and leeks here, is it enough?" An aunt outside happened to buy something, and handed it over with a smile.
Zhongli nodded gratefully at the other party, and then began to peel the leek boy carefully and give it to Atina to wash and mash, while he knocked the egg open and poured out the egg white.
Xiao Yuanyuan's face had been wiped clean by the other party at this time, Zhongli mixed leeks and egg whites together, and then took a handkerchief and gently smeared these on the other party's cheeks, Xiao Yuanyuan looked at Zhongli who was close at hand, and couldn't help but blushed and stretched out his hand to Artina, his voice was as thin as a gnat. "Zhong Gongzi, why don't you let this young lady get it for me?"
Zhongli was stunned for a moment, then handed the thing to Atina, and then stood by with his arms in his arms and waited, about ten minutes later, Atina's voice came with some surprise, "It's not itchy, my face is not itchy!" ”
She was a little happy and wanted to cheer, but was stopped by Atina and asked to apply it a little longer. The crowd that was already in a commotion and wanted to leave fell silent after hearing this sentence, after all, it is everyone's nature to watch the excitement, and besides, take a good look and see if they can see this kind of thing in the future, they can also operate.
About half an hour later, Atina found Zhongli's homemade cotton mask in the peach blossom makeup, dipped her in liquid and pasted it on her face, and after another quarter of an hour, Zhongli asked Atina to remove the mask from Xiao Yuanyuan's face, and then wiped it with a handkerchief, and everyone exclaimed again.
Xiao Yuanyuan's eyes widened, looked at this, looked at that, and asked a little anxiously, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? She reached out and touched her cheek, which was still bumpy and small, and she couldn't help but cry.
She knew that this kind of disease brought out of the mother's womb, such simple things would not work.
"What Zhong Gongzi said is true, Miss is really born beautiful!"
"Yes, yes, it's from the capital, it's so beautiful!"
……
What's the situation?
Xiao Yuanyuan raised his eyes suddenly, looked towards Zhongli, and then looked at Atina who was looking at him with a smile next to him, and couldn't help but blush and ask, "Is there a mirror?" ”
Zhongli pointed to the things on the ground with a smile, and couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head, "Probably, no!" ”
Xiao Yuanyuan looked at the broken glass products on the ground, and couldn't help but feel blue and white for a while, looking at the other party biting his lip and being speechless, it was all her own fault, she obviously couldn't touch rouge gouache since she was born, but she couldn't help but come in, but who knows, she became like this again.
She knew she was wrong, but she was angry in the end, so she was desperate to let the little guy do anything here, she thought about it, took out a few silver tickets from her pocket and handed them to Zhongli. "I know there may not be a way to cover your losses, but please accept it."
Zhongli laughed, pushed her silver ticket back, and looked at everyone, "Today, Peach Blossom Makeup can be regarded as giving up a small shop and earning a reputation, I hope everyone will come to cheer more in the future." She turned her head to look at Xiao Yuanyuan, "You can take back the silver ticket, if you really feel sorry for it, why don't you invite us to Hui Bafang for a meal, how about it?" ”
The people who were watching the excitement outside immediately laughed when they heard this, but they just looked at Zhongli with kindness in their eyes.
And when Xiao Yuanyuan heard the words "Hui Bafang", his eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, yes!" She had long heard of the name of Hui Bafang, but there was no one in the capital. It's just that she didn't know that Hui Bafang was the same as this peach blossom makeup, it was Zhongli's small shop.
The shopkeeper had already known the news that Zhongli was coming, and had prepared a private room and light meals early for them to use as soon as they entered.
"Miss, please be seated." After entering the box, Zhongli said politely like a gentleman.
Xiao Yuanyuan nodded and sat down dignifiedly.
After Xiao Yuanyuan sat down, Zhongli sat down in his place, and beckoned Atina to sit down.
"These are all famous dishes from all directions, I hope to get into the eyes of the young lady." Zhongli was generous and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly, which made Xiao Yuanyuan's impression of her a little better, but he was even more curious about the relationship between him and Atina.
Her big eyes turned back and forth on Atina and Zhongli, and she wanted to ask, but when she thought of her actions today, she couldn't help but shake her head at the other party with a red face, "The second son is polite." Saying that, she picked up the chopsticks and ate them, but after only one bite, she saw her eyes light up and gave a thumbs up to the shopkeeper next to her, "Hui Bafang is really extraordinary, delicious, delicious!" But shopkeeper, don't wait here, just a few of us can come by ourselves. ”
Atina couldn't help but smile at the other party, and turned her eyes to look at Zhongli, only to see him hook the corners of his lips and raise his chin towards the shopkeeper.
Xiao Yuanyuan saw this scene coldly, and looked at Zhong Li with some surprise, "Do Zhong Gongzi and the shopkeeper know each other?" "Otherwise, why would the other party be so respectful? Moreover, she hasn't heard of any big officials surnamed Zhong here!
Atina couldn't hold back any longer, snorted and laughed, shook her head at the other party, and hooked the corners of her lips, "It's not just acquaintance, Hui Bafang is still Zhong Gongzi's!" ”
Xiao Yuanyuan couldn't help but exclaim, his eyes widened, and he looked at Zhongli in disbelief.
While they were eating, Zhao Yiyan was sitting in the study, staring at the glass beads in his hand in a daze.
This was given to him by Zhongli at the beginning, but he didn't expect that the relationship between them would become like this now, and he didn't expect that he would have that kind of thought about him, it's ......
"General, what do you plan to do about the Zhong family?" The old butler stood hunched over the doorway and asked in a low voice.
"Leave it alone." Zhao Yiyan put away the glass beads in his hand, waved to the old housekeeper, and said, "You go down." ”
The old housekeeper's heart moved slightly, and he answered yes, and after walking to the door, he suddenly remembered something important, and hurriedly said: "Lord Wang, Miss Xiao and Zhong Ergongzi are now in the eight directions, do you want to go over to meet?" ”
Zhao Yiyan raised his head for unknown reasons, his brows furrowed, but when he heard that there was a woman and Zhongli together, he unconsciously felt a little pantothenic acid in his heart, "Who is Miss Xiao?" ”
The old butler almost didn't fall, he was already ready for the dowry, but he didn't expect that he didn't even know who he was going to marry. But I don't blame the prince, if he hadn't found someone to check, I really didn't know that this noble girl in the capital had the courage to sneak out of the capital by herself and look at her husband.
"Back to the prince, Miss Xiao is the noble lady of the capital given to you by the emperor, and she is also the object we are going to greet this time." The old butler explained.
Zhao Yiyan frowned, and was silent for a moment before looking at him puzzled. "When did she come here?" So do I still need to pick it up? There is no need to give the dowry at all, the hirer is a wife and a concubine, this time the emperor should not say anything, right? He sneered, he was really sleepy and came to deliver a pillow, what did he want!
But when he thought that woman was now with Zhongli, his expression sank again, and he looked at the old butler coldly, "When did they get together?" Or did the two know each other in the first place? After a pause, he groaned and asked, "Zhongli, do you know her identity?" ”
