Chapter 13 But the water is cold

The boy who followed Lu Zhu to get the medicine had already gone back, and Bei Sheng happened to run into him when he returned to Qing Ai Garden.

Beisheng said: "I don't know your name yet."

The boy bowed slightly and said, "In reply to the second girl, my name is Chang Yue."

Beisheng asked again: "Is your relationship with Guangxin still close?"

Chang Yue's hand holding the medicine box was trembling slightly, "It's not really close. Guang Xin takes care of the eldest girl closely, and the little guy only does menial work in the courtyard."

Chang Yue looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a delicate and pale face, and nasty frostbite on the backs of his knuckles and hands. He only wore a single shirt in the cold weather, which shows that Nanyin usually doesn't care about the people in his hospital. favor.

Beisheng said: "You were also frightened today. When you go back, take care of Guang Xin quietly. I will also make some soup and send it over. The medicine in your hand is also very effective for frostbite. Remember to go to Lu Zhu to get it after you use it."

Chang Yue's nose felt sour, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, "The villain thanks the second girl, the villain thanks the second girl!"

"Get up, it's cold on the ground. It's such a cold day and you have to stay up all night. Remember to go to the kitchen to ask for a bowl of ginger soup. I will also give advice to mother and prepare warm clothes for you."

Chang Yue kowtowed twice on the ground again, "Thank you, Miss Second!"

Beisheng bypassed Chang Yue and returned to Qing Ai Garden.

Wan Yue prepared the bath water, and after removing her clothes, Bei Sheng lay in the hot tub with her eyes closed.

His whole body was white, except for a few streaks of blood on his face that were dazzling.

Wan Yue endured it again and again, and finally asked: "Girl, you have medicine to reward the young man in the eldest lady's courtyard, why don't you treat your face?"

Bei Sheng said lazily: "These small injuries heal quickly. I want them to stay on my face for a long time so that my parents can remember what my sister did to me every day."

"But the girl's appearance is the most important thing. I heard from Aunt Ye that Princess Boling's birthday is coming soon. Madam wants to take the two girls to the banquet together. If the girl's face has always been bad..."

Princess Boling? Bei Sheng opened his eyes slightly.

In the previous life, Princess Boling selected concubines for the prince, leaving some girls from aristocratic families to learn to be popular in the palace. In the end, King Leping rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor, Princess Boling disappeared, and all the girls in the palace were taken to heaven. Prison and bury Prince Xiao Xun...

In the mist, Bei Sheng couldn't help but shudder, and he suddenly got goosebumps all over his body. It seems that the blood energy of Tianlao has not dissipated, and the spicy and bitter taste of the poisonous wine still leaves an aftertaste on the tip of the tongue...

"What's wrong, girl? But the water is cold?" Wan Yue put her hand into the bucket and tried it. The water temperature was not cold, but still very hot.

Bei Sheng calmed down and said softly: "Princess Boling's birthday is still nearly half a month away. By then, the wounds on my face will be healed. Tomorrow, I will have Lu Zhu wrap up the tonic for me once a day. When the potion is boiled, bring it to me to drink, and bring those lotions as well."

In order to maintain a better complexion, Beisheng specially mixed tonics and some cosmeceuticals for himself.

After using these cosmeceuticals for a long time, without using rouge and gouache, my eyebrows can become dark without paint, lips can become red without smearing, and skin can become white without paint.

Drinking those tonics for ten days and a half will make your face radiant and rosy.

Are you still worried that you won't be able to maintain good health before Princess Boling's birthday? It was enough for her to get rid of the country atmosphere.

"Also, let Luzhu take better care of Guangxin. He is a slave born at home. I can't bear it when my sister beat him like that." Beisheng closed his eyes again and picked up a red one from the water. Take it to the tip of your nose and smell it.

Women all love the fragrance of flowers, and would put flower petals in the tub to remove body odor when bathing. However, Beisheng asked Wanyue to cook a medicinal soup of dogwood and orange peel and pour the medicine residue into the tub.

Everyone has the fragrance of flowers, but she is the only one with the fragrance of medicine. Wouldn't it be more unique?

Wanyue gently wiped Beisheng's long arms with a wet handkerchief, and complained softly: "The girl is so kind, she even wants to save the slaves in the eldest girl's courtyard. She also has to answer some questions for the eldest girl, but fortunately Yan Qing thought of some ways and could vaguely see the general words on the question paper. Otherwise, it was a piece of waste paper. The eldest girl was clearly teasing the second girl. There was no answer in the question paper. When Mr. Lang asked, the eldest girl was also in trouble. Why should the second girl bother? Take over this hard job?" "I am also trying to save poor Guangxin, or else let my sister beat him to death?"

Wan Yue sighed softly, "Although the eldest girl was not as kind to the slaves as the second girl, she was not cruel or harsh. I don't know why she has become like this now?"

Beisheng knew very well why it had become like this.

With the addition of Beisheng to Duke An's residence, Nanyin was no longer the only daughter, and her parents' love for their son was split in two. Naturally, she felt that she was not taken seriously in this family, so she became jealous and angry.

Yan Qing placed the re-copied test questions on Bei Sheng's desk. In Bei Sheng's opinion, the test questions Lang Zhuo gave Nanyin were simpler than his own.

Discussing the affairs of the family, the country, and the world is difficult for a politician, but it is not difficult for a boudoir's daughter. There is no need for imperial examinations or court reports. She only needs to answer the questions based on her own psychology.

And her own question paper, which she wrote with great effort and guessed Langzhuo's mind, was thrown into the brazier.

Beisheng woke up a little after nine o'clock the next day, and Yan Qing sent the question paper he answered last night to Qinghuaju. After drinking the tonic, I went to Mei Xiangju to treat me to breakfast.

Maybe they can go ice fishing. Nanyin smiled a little more at Beisheng today. At least in front of Xu Zhaoting and his wife, the two sisters were harmonious.

Nanyin also apologized to Xu Zhaoting and Mrs. Yun, saying that he was reckless yesterday.

Xu Zhaoting didn't want to be too harsh on his daughter, so he stroked his beard twice and asked leisurely: "Which one of you sisters will play chess with me?"

"I'll accompany daddy." Nanyin volunteered.

Mrs. Yun smiled and said to Beisheng, "Do you know how to play chess?"

Beisheng shook his head, "No."

"Then I'll teach you how to play. Let's play something simpler first. Do you know how to play backgammon?"

"Okay, daughter listens to her mother."

As soon as the two chessboards were set up, Ye Zhi came in, "Master, Madam, Prince Zhao is here."

Nanyin's eyes lit up, "Is King Leping here too?"

Ye Zhi said: "No, only Prince Zhao is alone."

Nanyin turned her head quickly, "Dad, let's play chess!"

Zhao Shu was the only one here, and she was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Xu Zhaoting wanted the fun of playing chess to dissipate and asked coldly: "Why is he here so early? Marquis Gao Yang didn't give him breakfast?"

Ye Zhi looked at Bei Sheng with an unpredictable expression, "Prince Zhao said he came to see the second girl."

Mrs. Yun looked at Bei Sheng and was about to speak. Bei Sheng smiled and said softly: "Mother, then I will go out to see him."

Then he said to Ye Zhi: "Invite the young Marquis to Nuange, I will go there right away."

When Bei Sheng came out of the main room, Zhao Shu was walking in, and the two met each other.
