Chapter 394: Cool
The night is slightly cool.
After Madame Chi finished bathing, she put on a tulle and walked out from behind the screen.
She had a light veil over her face, and she didn't take it off even when she was bathing.
She walked over to the bronze mirror, took off her veil, and prepared to apply the ointment.
The night was dark, and she didn't notice that the ointment had been changed, but as soon as the ointment was picked up, her brow furrowed.
Su Jin's ointment was picked up on the fingertips, giving people a feeling of coolness.
But this ointment does not.
Although Mrs. Chi is not favored, she has a very sensitive sense.
She looked at it carefully, sniffed it again, and her face became ugly.
The little maid magpie saw the expression on her face through the bronze mirror.
She came over and asked, "Ma'am, what's wrong?" ”
Madame Chi threw the ointment on the table, and she closed her eyes to prevent the maid from seeing the anger in her eyes.
The little girl's brows tightened.
In the past few days, Madame has been in a good mood.
Especially today, after she said that the scars on Madame's face had faded, Madame's eyebrows and eyes were a little more smiling.
All thanks to the ointment of the grandmother.
How could the lady throw the ointment on the table?
Mrs. Chi couldn't speak, and she couldn't explain to the little maid, but the little maid could guess that there must be something wrong with the ointment.
But in Qingqiu Garden, there are only a few of them, and no one else comes.
Thinking of Mother Li's attitude during the day, the little maid was suspicious, could it be that Mother Li secretly changed the ointment?
The little maid picked up the ointment and said, "The slave maid went to find Mother Li!" ”
She turned to leave, but Mrs. Chi reached out to stop her and shook her head at her.
Catch the traitor and catch the double, catch the thief and take the stolen goods.
Li's mother was not injured and didn't need ointment, she stole the ointment for someone else, the ointment was not in her hands, and no one took it, she flatly denied it, and they couldn't help her.
The little maid also knew that if it was really Mother Li's doing, she would not admit it.
"But without the ointment, what will happen to Madame's face?" The little girl said urgently.
Mrs. Chi touched the scars on her face, her eyes darkened.
She shook her head and told the maid to step down.
The next day, Su Jin went to Qihetang as usual to greet the old lady.
She didn't stay long before she retired.
Walking all the way from the shade of the trees, in the distance, I saw a little maid squatting on the ground and drawing circles.
"It's like a magpie," Apricot said.
Hearing the voice, the little maid looked over here, and saw that it was Su Jin and Xing'er, so she hurriedly threw the wooden stick in her hand and walked over quickly.
Xing'er saw it and said, "Why don't you serve Mrs. Chi in the courtyard and be in a daze there?" ”
The magpie looked left and right and said, "The ointment that the young grandmother gave to my wife was stolen and changed. ”
As she spoke, she took out the ointment and showed it to Su Jin.
Su Jin took the ointment, opened it and sniffed it, and his eyes became cold.
This ointment is also used to remove scars, but the effect is average, and there is no need to apply it at all.
Xing'er said angrily, "Do you know who changed it?" ”
"It should be Mother Li, I was going to ask Mother Li last night, but Mrs. won't let me go," the magpie said.
"I'm going to sue the eldest young master, and Madame won't let me, so I sneaked out."
Those who are maids must listen to their masters.
If she is not allowed to find the eldest young master, she will not look for it.
But Madame didn't say that you weren't allowed to look for the young grandmother.
Such a good ointment was stolen and replaced with a box of bad ointment, and the more the little girl thought about it, the more unconvinced she became.
It's okay to ask for it, although I won't give it, but what's the matter with such a trick?
The two maids were angry, and Su Jin was even more angry.
The ointment was made by her with Dongzhu, and a box of ointment used eight Dongzhu, and the effect can be imagined.
was stolen like this, and Su Jinqi was in pain in his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys.
If Mrs. Chi doesn't pursue this account, she will also pursue it to the end.
"Your lady did the right thing, she didn't catch the handle, and she stabbed it out directly, but she scared the snake," Su Jin said.
"You go back first, and I will send Xing'er to send the ointment to your master."
The little maid nodded again and again.
After taking the ointment from Su Jin's hand, the little maid turned around and went back to Qingqiu Garden.
Watching the magpie walk away, Xing'er couldn't help but say, "Why is there a lot of annoying people everywhere in the Zhenguo Mansion." ”
There are so many people in Qingyun Mountain, and I haven't seen anyone with unclean hands and feet.
There are only three people in Qingqiu Garden, and there are also sellers seeking glory.
After returning to Agarwood Xuan, Su Jin went directly to the backyard.
It takes a lot of effort to make a scar cream.
This busyness is busy from the morning until the sun sets.
Xie Jingchen came back from the Criminal Department and was going to have dinner with Su Jin, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Su Jin go.
He came to the bamboo house, and when he saw the ointment, he said, "How can you make the scar ointment?" ”
"Don't mention it, the ointment for Mrs. Chi was stolen," Su Jin said.
Xie Jingchen's brows tightened.
Su Jin packed the ointment and handed it to Xing'er.
When Apricot took the ointment, her eyes were shining.
Carrying the baggage, Xing'er went to Qingqiu Garden.
The baggage is filled with a flower chicken made of apricots, and there are three.
After eating the flower chicken four or five times in a row, Su Jin was a little tired.
Before making it, Apricot felt that she could eat a whole.
When it's done, half of them are barely there.
In the past two days, Xing'er doesn't want to eat called flower chicken anymore, and she is tired of eating, so she will lose a favorite delicacy in the future.
So to make more copies, the apricots were all sent to Qingqiu Garden.
In the gazebo, the magpie was nibbling on chicken legs, and she ate so quickly that she choked.
Xing'er hurriedly poured tea for her, "You eat slowly, don't choke." ”
The magpie poured a sip of tea, beat his chest, and said after a while, "I want to eat quickly, otherwise Mother Li will come back in a while, and there will be no share for me, she can eat a whole flower chicken at a time." ”
If it had been before, she would definitely keep most of it for Li's mother.
Now that she knows that Li's mother is begging for help, the magpie has no good impression of her at all, so she is not willing to give her what she eats.
As he spoke, he heard footsteps.
Xing'er glanced at it and saw Mother Li coming in, she sniffed and said, "I can smell the fragrance of flower chickens from afar." ”
The magpie quickly reached out to grab the other half of the chicken, and the apricot grabbed her hand.
The magpie looked at her.
"Look at me," Apricot whispered.
The magpie retracted his hand.
Xing'er took out a small jade tube from the bag, and she quickly sprinkled the powder on half of the chicken.
Mother Li put down the copper basin in her hand and walked over.
Mother Li's eyes stared at the flower chicken, and said, "Why doesn't the apricot girl eat it?" ”
"I just ate a lot, and this half is just for you," Xing'er said.
Mother Li smiled and planned to stretch out her hand.
Xing'er changed her words, "I'm a little hungry again now, I'll eat another chicken leg." ”
As she spoke, Apricot pulled the chicken leg off.
You should know that the best part of the chicken is the chicken thigh.
Mother Li was a little distressed, but she didn't say anything, after all, this is called a flower chicken sent by Xing'er.
She hurriedly served it, afraid that if she didn't eat it quickly, it would be all gone in a while.
The magpie looked at the apricot with admiration in her eyes.
After Xing'er finished nibbling on the chicken legs and left, Li's mother began to have a stomachache and ran to the toilet one by one.
Half a life is almost gone.
When the magpie saw her again, she was startled by Li's mother's pale face.
Mrs. Li took the ointment, turned her head and saw Li's mother, and her hands shook in fright.
Bang.
The ointment fell to the ground.
The porcelain box was torn apart, and the ointment was sprinkled everywhere.
Through the veil, Mother Li felt that Mrs. Chi's face was blue.
Mother Li hurriedly admitted her mistake, Mrs. Chi wanted to scold, but she couldn't scold anyone.
Magpie persuaded, "Don't be angry, Madam, Mother Li didn't mean to scare you, fortunately, there is still a box of ointment sent by Grandma Da Shao, and it can be used for a while." ”
The magpie went to bring another box of ointment, and Mrs. Chi applied the ointment to the mirror, while the magpie cleaned up the broken porcelain bottles and ointment that had fallen on the floor.
Looking at the ointment, Mother Li's eyes flashed.
