Peony went to the kitchen and soon returned, holding a small bag of white powder.

"Miss, this is the last point in the kitchen, and this crystal cake is only a summer snack that the kitchen will make, so I haven't purchased white jelly." Peony said as she put the bag on the table.

Qing Qian breathed a sigh of relief, if she ran out of money, she would have to go out and buy it, which would be a lot more troublesome, but what she was most worried about was not this, but the kitchen didn't give it, after all, what was sent from the kitchen when she was locked up.

"You were the only one in the kitchen when you went to get this?" Qing Qian asked, fiddling with the aloe vera on the windowsill.

Peony scratched her head and said, "It seems that there is still a frown, but she is stewing medicine for the second lady, and she is guarding the medicine jar." ”

Qing Qian nodded, and didn't think much about it, who could have imagined what she would do with the white jelly used to make crystal cakes.

Even the peony is confused, isn't it that the young lady wants to eat crystal cake in this winter? If so, just tell the kitchen to do it.

But when the young lady told her to close the door of the yard, she took off all the thick fleshy stems around the aloe vera, and carefully removed a thin layer of skin on the outside of the aloe vera, leaving only a small piece of transparent flesh.

In the past, the young lady used aloe vera juice to mix it directly with honey and rub it on the wound on her back, but this is the first time I have seen her treat the pulp in this way.

"Go, boil water." She asked the peony to boil the water, then took out the honey and mixed it with water before putting it aside.

When she had finished boiling the water, Qing Qian took the enamel bottle from the table, poured hot water into it, and let it sit for a while until the temperature cooled down before soaking the aloe vera in the bottle. Then she took the pestle and dish of the medicine, mashed the freshly soaked aloe vera little bit, filtered it several times in a row with two layers of gauze, and finally added some honey and white jelly mixed with warm water.

As long as you leave it like this for a while, the aloe vera paste is considered ready.

Qingqian snorted, although this thing is not difficult to make, but it is still quite troublesome, that is, the link of mashing aloe vera, which makes her tired arms sore.

She asked Peony to vacate a box of rouge gouache, and after a while, she poured aloe vera paste into it.

But she had just rested against the soft collapse for a while when she saw a coquettish laugh outside.

Qingqian was stunned, and quickly got up and asked Peony to put away the things on the table, but it was too late, Gu Qinglian had already stepped into the courtyard with a frown.

Because the old lady withdrew the grounding order, the two grandmothers had already returned to the courtyard early this morning, and all the remaining maids had been kicked out, and no one reported even if someone came in the courtyard.

It was a problem, she didn't think about it at all, and her whole mind was spent in this aloe vera cream this afternoon.

She strode to the front of the table, and covered the things on the table behind her with a wide skirt before saying softly, "The second sister is actually free to come and see me today." ”

When Gu Qinglian came in, she had already seen Qingqian standing in front of the table quite quickly, and she was secretly a little suspicious in her heart, originally she had just heard that Peony went to the kitchen to get some white jelly, but she was just curious and wanted to come over to take a look, but she didn't expect to see her in such a hurry.

She wanted to know what Qing Qian was hiding behind her.

Seeing her eyes looking straight over, she pouted and said, "Sister, don't tell me that I came here because I was curious that my maid went to the kitchen." ”

I didn't expect her to say it so bluntly, Gu Qinglian took out a small jar from behind her and said: "Sister thinks about it too much, this is the flower dew that my sister buried in the soil last year, and I happened to open a few jars today, and I specially sent a jar to my sister, and the tea leaves I gave to my sister yesterday can be soaked in this water, which has a different taste." ”

It's flower dew and tea again, just like when she went to the old lady's yard for two days in a row, Gu Qinglian came to join her for two days in a row, which must have ulterior motives.

"In a few days it will be the birthday of the concubine Niangniang, I heard that the concubine Niangniang likes to eat some light food, my sister might as well send this flower dew, the concubine Niangniang will definitely be happy." Qing Qian looked at the new and pale celadon jar, no matter how he looked at it, it was not just dug out of the ground.

Gu Qinglian squinted and smiled: "My sister just has this intention, but I don't know what my sister will give?" It should be the glaze red peony pattern vase. ”

Glaze red entwined peony pattern vase? What is this? She was a little confused, and she didn't plan to send a vase or anything like that, not to mention that she didn't even know she had it.

Gu Qinglian was slightly surprised, Qingqian was a little strange, shouldn't she be the one who was surprised? She had never heard of this messy vase, and she looked at what Gu Qinglian said with great confidence, as if she was determined that she would give this thing.

She smiled and said, "I haven't made up my mind, I don't know what to send when the time comes, why don't you give my sister some advice?" ”

"I don't dare to point out," Gu Qinglian fiddled with the tassel hanging from her waist and said, "I heard that the concubine has been missing one or two pieces of gold and silver jewelry recently, so my sister might as well send some jewelry over, or that vase is not bad, my sister will definitely be happy to send it to the concubine." ”

"Thank you, sister." Qingqian just asked casually, and she didn't think that Gu Qinglian would tell her honestly.

This is completely the opposite of what Zhou told her, will the concubine still lack jewelry? Even if it is missing, the emperor wants to send it, what does it matter to her.

However, the topic shifted and shifted, Gu Qinglian kept staring at her behind her, wondering what she was doing, her eyes involuntarily looked at the windowsill, only to see the smooth aloe vera, and her eyes couldn't help but turn.

"My sister's aloe vera is really good."

Qing Qian laughed dryly, and all the remaining leaves had become the contents of the small box behind him!

Ignoring her words, she saw that Gu Qinglian had already leaned over here, and accidentally kicked on the pear blossom wooden chair next to her. This heavy chair directly made her stumble, her face was half darkened, Gu Qinglian was one step ahead of her, and she was the only one who was closest to her, which obviously wanted her to help her.

After all, it is her own yard, if it is spread that the second lady falls here for three long and two short, I am afraid that she will not be able to eat and walk around. She simply stretched out her leg from under her skirt and kicked it into the pear blossom wooden chair.

Miss Gu Er is a smart master, how could she trip over a chair, she just kicked the chair lightly and pretended to fall, so that Qing Qian could move her position, but this idea was very good, Qing Qian couldn't stand still and watch her fall, but what she didn't calculate was that Qing Qian would suddenly kick on the other side of the chair.

She only felt a pain in her ankle, and immediately threw herself into Qing Qian's arms, and Qing Qian also fell backwards, and almost all of the whole person fell on the table, and even all the people with the table were overturned to the ground.

Qing Qian felt as if his whole body was falling apart, the two maids were standing far away, and before the two of them could react, something had already happened.

The two of them immediately came over to help their young lady, Qing Qian looked particularly embarrassed when she was pressed underneath, and the originally good Luo skirt was cut out of a few cuts.

"It's my sister who didn't pay attention, I'm really sorry for my sister." Gu Qinglian was supported by her cheeks, with two teardrops on her face, looking pitiful.

I don't know if it's because of the pain in my ankle or if I'm apologizing.

Qingqian's face was a little pale, Gu Qinglian was not at ease when she fell, her elbow was directly fixed on her stomach, and it was estimated that it was already purple.

The table overturned, thinking that they couldn't see anything, Qingqian was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he noticed a round box at the foot of the frown.

Aloe vera cream!

The aloe vera paste in the box had become viscous, and Gu Qinglian naturally noticed that the things under her feet also smelled a strong fragrance of aloe vera, but she didn't think of what this thing was used for, but what did Sister Yan want to hide this thing for?

She hurriedly retreated, and helped her all the way back to the yard.

Gu Qinglian was strange, what was there to hide in such a mess of mushy things, aloe vera and white jelly, at most it was just aloe vera crystal cake.

It's just that the rouge gouache box attracted her attention, and she remembered the effect of aloe vera she said before, which was somewhat similar to the alabaster sold outside, could it be ......

She thought about it for a moment and let her go out on the street.

Gu Qinglian's hand was really not light, and after the people left, Peony helped her to the bed, lifted her clothes, and her waist was already purple, which was quite conspicuous compared to the delicate and fair skin around her.

She grinned in pain, she just kicked the wooden chair forward a little, thinking that Gu Qinglian should not lean forward again, but she didn't expect Gu Qinglian to be determined to know what was behind her.

However, Gu Qinglian kicked on the wooden chair and felt uncomfortable.

Seeing that her master's waist was purple, Peony quickly found safflower oil from the medicine box under the bed and rubbed it for her, and lay on the bed and hummed: "I knew that I would clean up my things first, but in the future, I still have to avoid the people in Bibo Courtyard, but I'm afraid this aloe vera paste can't be used." ”

The maid in her yard just went to the kitchen to get the white jelly, and Gu Qinglian took the maid over to test it, this aloe vera paste is not difficult to make, and it will basically be done after looking at it, she is only afraid that Gu Qinglian will take out something exactly the same as her on the concubine's birthday.

Peony didn't understand, this girl is a tendon, and she didn't come to explain it to her, not to mention that this aloe vera paste is not something that anyone can use, if you are allergic, your whole face will swell into a bun.

So as for the birthday gift, let her think about it again, but she won't use the so-called glaze red vase.
