"Mother..." Wu Sheyue looked directly into Jiang Qingxue's eyes with tears in her eyes.
"How could this happen?" Jiang Qingxue sighed with great sadness, "Lixiang has grown this peach blossom moss, why don't you... Hey, there are still too many flowers in the house. It's time to shovel some away. There haven't been any in previous years. What's going on here? How come you guys are going to the Hundred Flowers Banquet this time..."
Wu Sheyue cried: "Am I the same as my fourth sister? I heard yesterday that she also..."
"They're almost the same, but... you look more serious!" Jiang Qingxue looked worriedly, looking at Wu Sheyue's face carefully without blinking, but her mind was already changing.
Come to think of it, Wu Sheyue is a girl who has never seen any good things. She must have been wearing her mask morning and night to cause such serious problems. What she saw in front of her eyes was a disgusting rash, but she felt very comfortable in her heart. It was really not in vain that she used the best materials and hired the best craftsmen, so that Yin Qiuming's face could continue to look bad... It's really worth it.
"Then what should I do!" Wu Sheyue's tears fell, covering her face and crying sadly, "I also made a picture frame myself, hoping to frame it and compete with the government at the Hundred Flowers Banquet. It's a light thing, but now...how can I see anyone?"
Jiang Qingxue's eyes followed Wu Sheyue's hands and saw that the picture frame she was carving just now was extremely beautiful. What is carved on it is a peacock and a hundred flowers. Every fine hair of the peacock feathers is clear and lifelike. The flowers coiled around are in various shapes and shapes, and none of them are similar.
Jiang Qingxue frowned slightly. Not to mention what Wu Sheyue was able to paint, the craftsmanship that this boudoir woman had never mastered was different when it came to the Hundred Flowers Banquet. Fortunately... Jiang Qingxue actually felt a sense of calamity in her heart. The feeling of the rest of life.
She looked at the picture frame and felt a little excited. This craftsmanship was only as good as Yin Qiu Ming's! What did Yin Qiuming teach her in the past few years
Jiang Qingxue suddenly patted Wu Sheyue's shoulder and said comfortingly: "The doctor said that this rash will be fine if you don't touch the pollen, and it will go away on its own. There are still a few days, so don't worry, just keep doing it. It will be fine by then.”
"Really? If it doesn't get better..."
"Don't worry, it will heal slowly at best. How can it not be cured? Sigh..." Jiang Qingxue sighed, turned around and waved her hand to Hongye to come over with something, "Your grandmother also said that she was afraid that all of you sisters have this problem, called The doctor prepared some tonic and came over. The medicine hasn't been delivered yet, and you've developed a rash too. You'd better drink it, it will be more or less useful."
On the red leaf tray was a small medicine jar covered with red velvet to keep it warm. Jiang Qingxue personally held the medicine jar over with both hands and opened the lid, letting out a strong medicinal fragrance.
"It's too bitter, Yue'er, let it go before drinking." Wu Sheyue looked sad, then winked at Ning'er and whispered, "Go, get me some candied fruit."
The corners of Jiang Qingxue's mouth twitched, saying that it was really good to switch from frugality to luxury. This girl had only recovered a few days ago, but she had learned how to drink medicine with preserves to be so squeamish. She stood up and stroked the pleats on her skirt and said, "I have to give a copy to that girl Yin'er to prevent you sisters from getting rashes. Just relax and take good care of yourself, but don't think too much about it." . Just do whatever you have to do, don’t delay the congratulatory gifts at the Hundred Flowers Banquet.”
"Yes..." Wu Sheyue lowered her eyes. She wanted to give the concubine a medicine and she wanted the wife of the Prime Minister to deliver it in person? He was obviously looking for an excuse to see if she had been tricked.
Jiang Qingxue didn't stay long, hurriedly explained a few words, and soon led Hongye away. The medicine jar was placed on the table, and Ning'er took it and poured it out very consciously.
After they left, Wu Sheyue stopped polishing the frame. She stood the frame next to the table leg and poured a cup of tea. The bronze mirror on the table clearly reflected her rash-covered face.
Ning'er came back with the empty medicine jar and asked, "Miss, would you like to wash your face? It looks weird."
"Let's leave it like this for now. Maybe they will come over and see if I continue to have rashes. It's good not to let others see my face."
Ning'er lowered her head and looked at the medicine jar and said: "I heard from the doctor that this rash will disappear on its own. There are still five days before the Hundred Flowers Banquet. If the medicine powder is only in the head and face, the fourth lady will be heartbroken and stop dressing up. The rash is so... It will disappear in a few days, isn’t it true that Madam’s work has been in vain?”
"Just watch, Wu Lixiang can't get better because of Jiang Qingxue. Ask someone to wash the medicine jar to prevent the smell of medicine from drifting in." Wu Sheyue lamented, "It's a pity that other ingredients are added to the good medicinal materials. It's really a waste." "
Ning'er responded, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity and continued to ask: "But why are the eldest and second young ladies okay? Aren't the girls who chose them chosen themselves? The eldest lady is top-notch in everything. You should make a good move. How did the second lady avoid it?"
"It's not difficult. Wu Jinghua has had several incidents before, and she has been grounded one after another. You see, she has been very well-behaved recently, and she doesn't mess with me anymore. She went to Wu Liuyun, and was the second one to get something. It should be Wu Lixiang. It’s very easy to specially match Wu Lixiang with a style she likes. Anyway, there’s nothing wrong with Wu Yin’er, so it’s better to avoid it.”
"Hey, luckily Ning'er is just a maid." People's hearts are really complicated.
—
At ten o'clock in the evening, Wu Liuyun also brought Yingtao over. Wu Sheyue was still sitting in the same position as before, seemingly not moving all day, and was polishing the frame while crying.
She covered her face with a white veil, but it still couldn't cover the red pimple on her forehead. When she saw Wu Liuyun coming in, she quickly put down the things in her hands, stood up while stroking her tears, and said, "What are you doing here..."
This was the first time she had met in private with Wu Liuyun and Jiang Ying since they had a big fight.
As soon as Wu Liuyun entered the door, she saw what was in Wu Sheyue's hand. She glanced at the picture frame and said absently and a little indifferently: "My mother asked me to come and see you."
Wu Sheyue seemed to want to choke a few words, but in the end she held it back and just said "Sit down." Then casually put the picture frame aside.
Wu Liuyun sat down and followed the frame with his eyes, still showing an irreplaceable arrogance on his face.
Cherry took a step forward and placed a stack of books on the desk.
Wu Sheyue frowned and said, "What does this mean?"
"Although your rash hasn't gone away yet, you still have to learn what you need to learn. This palace is no different from other places. There are some things that grandma can't teach you." Wu Liuyun said casually, putting the pile of books in front of her. With a push, he looked like someone who had come before. (To be continued)
