Chapter 94: Strange Smell
The little รท said โ Net], the โ little รท said โ Net],
Mrs. Zhou fainted angrily because of the farce at the door of her house, and Mrs. Zhou was so anxious that she hurriedly invited the most famous old doctor in the capital to pour decoction while applying needles, and only then did she turn the corner.
After this incident, Lord Zhou was extremely disappointed in his wife, but he wanted to be embarrassed, and it was not good for him to make a move to divorce his wife, so he could only endure his diaphragm and ignore her.
Zhou Zhen knelt in front of his grandmother's door all night, his body and bones were not yet complete, and on the second day, his face was very ugly, and Gu Yulin's mother and daughter, who were going to visit him, were shocked.
Zhou's love for this nephew is very much, and he can't help but complain about his brother at the moment, "I also heard about what happened yesterday, it was completely that cheap hoof who took the initiative to calculate, and it has nothing to do with Zhen'er, the eldest brother asked him to kneel outside the door of his mother's room, there are really three long and two short, don't you regret it?" โ
The corners of his mouth were pursed into a line, and Lord Zhou gritted his teeth and said, "That unfilial son hooked up with a prostitute and committed adultery, and he didn't care about the face of the Zhou family at all, I think he can be more sober with his head kneeling, so don't get up!" โ
Hearing this, Zhou couldn't help but sneer.
"Big brother, you have to take a look at yourself before you say Zhen'er, otherwise you don't stand upright and don't set a good example for your juniors, how can you complain that the child is not successful?" Seeing that the man's face shook and he was obviously angry, Zhou hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this first, you and your sister-in-law hurry up and prepare the dowry, and go straight to the Fuguo Marquis Mansion to propose marriage, with Zhen'er's reputation, it is really not easy to get married, it is better to make do with Liansheng." โ
Gu Yulin sat beside her mother, with a hint of hesitation on her beautiful face, "Mother, my cousin went to the Fuguo Marquis Mansion before, and the Xue family didn't even let him in, if he went again, people wouldn't agree." โ
"How could you disagree? Liansheng is a straw bale, and that face is not very good, if he doesn't have a good uncle, he must still be rolling in the mud of Jingyang, how can he be worthy of Zhen'er? I didn't expect my daughter to pour cold water, and Zhou's well-maintained face showed a little unhappiness.
Gu Yulin lowered her eyes and spoke quickly, "You also know in your heart that Liansheng's identity is not bad, in this case, how could she marry her cousin?" The kiln sisters of Goolan have all come to the door! โ
Hearing the sound of the mother and daughter arguing, the blue tendons on the forehead of Lord Zhou burst out, and he reached out and slapped the table fiercely.
"Say no more! The unfilial son has been abolished, in case I offend the auxiliary marquis again, how should I gain a foothold in the court in the future? โ
Zhou wanted to say something more, but his daughter pulled his arm hard, and finally he could only reluctantly shut up.
------
Since Haitang went to Zhou's house to make trouble, Zhou Zhen never appeared in front of Xue Su again, and the latter was worried at first, thinking that the hypocrite was playing some tricks, but after a long time, he was sure that he was really dead and did not plan to entangle Liansheng anymore.
Hearing this, Xue Su was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut, and even the amount of food increased a lot compared to before. Chunlan and Qiuju watched from the side, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
On this day, Xue Su took Liansheng directly to Yan Ruyu, walking on the bustling main street, and the cries were endless.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared directly ahead. The man is long, his face is like a crown of jade, and he is wearing a green robe with a light color, which is the nightmare of Xue Su's previous life - Wang Youqing.
Calculating the time, the autumn season is approaching, and it is not strange that the surname Wang appeared in the capital. But as soon as she saw this person, she was in a state of reluctance, and she couldn't wait to step forward and slap his ears hard to relieve the hatred in her heart.
Wang Youqing didn't see Xue Su, and there were two women beside him. One of them is handsome, holding a milk doll less than one year old in his arms, and his figure is plumper compared to others, it is Xue Yue; And the other one who covered his face with a hat must be Wei Yuying, who was disfigured by the snow skin dew.
The past and present lives are really different.
The surname Wang married a flat wife, and one of them was still the daughter of the magistrate, even if he had a good chest and could be the champion of high school, this kind of married husband could not become Princess Jinyue's concubine. As a result, he can only enter the Hanlin Academy as an editor, and if he wants to grasp the real power, he is afraid that he will not succeed in ten or twenty years.
People say that a husband can't be without power for a day, and Wang Youqing also has a bit of arrogance, but it's a pity that this person is deep in thought, and he can do anything pickled in order to climb up, and there is no bottom line at all. Do you want to say that he is really completely ruthless to Xue Su? Not necessarily, it's just that Zhuang Yuanlang can't have half a stain on his body, besides, he is still the sweetheart of the princess, how can he have a relationship with other women?
It was precisely because he put his interests first that Xue Su's mother and son were buried under the wheels, suffered a lot, and finally both died.
Things that had happened before kept coming back to mind, and the woman's pretty face seemed to be frosty, without a hint of a smile.
Walking into Yan Ruyu quickly, the maid standing behind the counter is also discerning, and she dares to say a few jokes on weekdays.
I don't know what's going on, as soon as I entered the door, Xue Su smelled a smell of patina in front of his nose, although the smell was not obvious, but it had been circling in the house, even if the doors and windows were all opened, and the breeze blew in, it did not blow the stench away.
The right eyelid suddenly jumped twice, she walked to the wooden shelf where the grease was placed, only to feel that the pungent smell was even stronger, and picked up a box of elephant bile ointment, as soon as she opened the lid, the woman couldn't help frowning, her face was flushed, and she asked sharply:
"Who moved the grease on the wooden shelf?"
The decoction and ointment in the private hall were all prepared by Xue Su herself, and the people would only help her deal with the raw materials, and they didn't know the content of the secret recipe. The finished things are sent back to the store, even in the hottest summer weather, they can keep it from going bad for half a month, and now that only one day has passed, this whole box of grease is wrong, which is really strange.
The maids in the hall were all shocked and shook their heads in unison.
"Madam, the wooden box was sent yesterday, and it has been placed here all along, and no one has moved it."
Xue Su didn't believe this at all. Since she was reborn, her sense of smell is much sharper than that of ordinary people, and this like bile ointment must have been tampered with, and whatever is mixed in it is not a good thing for the time being.
Who hated her so much and wanted to ruin Yan Ruyu, who she had single-handedly run?
If Cheng Sanniang was still in the Beauty Workshop, she would have a motive to attack her, but the woman seemed to have evaporated out of thin air, and she never appeared in front of anyone again, and even the private hall in the Beauty Workshop was closed, so Xue Su didn't have a clue, and her face became more and more gloomy.
Suddenly, a gust of incense poured in. Xue Su looked up and found that it was Princess Jinyue who brought her subordinates to the store.
"Boss, I used your elephant bile cream last time, I only felt that the skin was a lot smoother, and after returning home, I applied a layer of grease ointment, and the effect was more obvious." When she spoke, Jin Yue's gorgeous face had an obvious smile on her face, obviously very satisfied with the things in the private hall.
An idea suddenly appeared in his mind, Xue Su raised his head, looked fixedly at the noble golden branches and jade leaves in front of him, and then lowered his eyes to look at the wooden box full of elephant bile ointment, and couldn't help pursing his lips.
Could it be that someone learned that the princess had returned to the private mansion and resorted to such a method to frame her? If the grease really disfigured Jinyue, just like Wei Yuying at the beginning, even if Chu Qinghe protected her, she was afraid that she would not end well.
Thinking of this, Xue Su couldn't help but feel excited, and hurriedly spoke:
"Miss, I'm afraid today's elephant bile ointment is useless, the little woman just opened the box to check it, and found that the taste of the ointment was wrong, I think it was too hot, and suddenly there was a problem, this kind of defective private restaurant will definitely not be sold to guests, and must be burned." Her face was full of apologies, and her attitude was not deferential.
Hearing this, Jin Yue was a little unhappy in her heart.
You must know that although she is a princess, she can't go out of the palace often, so she finally came to the private pavilion, and the Xue family was unwilling to receive her, which is really bold!
Seeing the woman's tense complexion, Xue Su explained stiffly, "Miss's skin is delicate, the most sensitive, usually a little bit of fat powder will sting, if you really use this box of deteriorated grease cream, the cheeks will be full of red rashes, and it will not fade in a few months." โ
Hearing this, Princess Jinyue suddenly remembered Chen Yunsheng's face, her plump body stiffened, she grinded her teeth, waved her hand and said, "That's it, since the elephant bile ointment can't be used, then Miss Ben won't do a massage today." โ
As she spoke, she looked at the woman from top to bottom with a pair of phoenix eyes, and when she saw Xue Su's slightly bulging lower abdomen, she couldn't help but feel a little surprised in her heart.
It is said that when an ordinary woman is pregnant, there will be a lot of spots on her cheeks, and even the skin and flesh will become rough and dull, even the concubines in the palace are no exception, and I don't know how the Xue family maintains them, the skin is tender and seems to be able to pinch out the water, and if you look closely, you can't see the slightest flaw, which is really enviable.
Xue Su didn't know what Princess Jinyue thought, she thought that her face was stained, so she hurriedly rubbed the back of her hand, rubbing the piece of skin and flesh slightly red, as if she had rubbed rouge.
"Boss, tell me, how to take care of your skin on weekdays, my cousin is also pregnant, but she has a lot of spots, because of this stubble, she complains to me a lot." Jin Yue said something as if it was true or false.
"The little woman runs Yan Ruyu, and the things used must be in the shop, Qibai ointment has the effect of lightening spots and whitening, with elephant bile ointment, do a massage every few days, the skin will naturally become more and more tender, but pregnant women should not be contaminated with too much grease, and it is not too late to do maintenance after the confinement."
This remark is completely Xue Su's nonsense, in her previous life, she had a big belly, the skin on her face was poor, and her waist was as thick as a bucket, but fortunately, she drank Yangliulu later, and then she slowly lost weight. During that time, she didn't dare to look in the mirror, and now she can still maintain this white and tender appearance, probably because of the peach wood beads integrated into her body.
