Wonderful Puppet

Chapter 116 The Prince's Invitation

Because Lei Geer was born prematurely, the three baptisms were not done, so people were sent to Yu's natal family, Zhen Ning, Zhen Yan and several close relatives to give red eggs.

On the third day, Zhen Ning sent someone to bring some precious medicinal materials, and Zhen Yan came to the door in person.

After coming out of Qinglianju, he nestled in the Ningshou Hall to talk with the old lady.

"Grandmother, don't worry, I think Lei Ge'er has a lot of strength in breastfeeding, and he will grow fat for nothing."

The old lady nodded: "That's not true. The safety of mother and child is already blessed by the Buddha. It's just that Lei Ge'er is weak and can't stand the trouble. If we don't do the three baptisms, the Yu family may have some ideas in their hearts."

Zhen Ning thoughtfully beat the old lady's leg: "I think Madam Yu is quite kind-hearted, and besides, she really loves Brother Lei, so don't worry about it, just wait for the full moon to handle it properly."

"Second sister, you can't be stingy as a second aunt when the time comes." Zhen Miao sat aside and said with a smile.

Zhen Yan gave her a white look: "I know you are rich and powerful, but you still show off, are you asking for a beating?"

While talking and laughing, A Silk came in and reported that Mrs. Yu had brought her two daughters-in-law over.

The old lady hurriedly let people in.

Zhen Miao quietly looked at it.

Madam Yu seemed to be about the same age as Madam Jiang, her eyes were big and bright, probably because she was worried about Yu Shi, the eyes were bloodshot.

The two young women following her, one wore an alizarin blue skirt with a pair of emerald pendants that swayed as she walked, making her look gentle and dignified; the other wore a double-breasted bamboo pattern skirt. The top shirt is paired with a pomegranate skirt, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, which is actually somewhat heroic.

Greeting to each other, A silk offered tea and snacks.

Madam Yu took a sip of tea first, and couldn't help praising: "Good tea, why does it have an indescribable fragrance?"

The old lady smiled: "A few days ago, the fifth girl and the sixth girl picked the dewdrops from the lotus petals, saved a jar of water and brought them here."

"But Mrs. Li's twin daughters? The last time I saw them were two children, but now they are so elegant."

"What Fengya. The little girl is just playing around." The old lady said disapprovingly.

The young woman with bushy eyebrows and big eyes sitting under Madam Yu frowned imperceptibly.

Zhen Yan saw it and smiled slightly.

Madam Yu took another piece of osmanthus cake and took a bite, "This cake is even more special. Not only is it richer in flavor than the usual osmanthus cake, but it's not so sweet. I wonder which dim sum shop it is from?"

The old lady smiled smugly this time, and glanced at Zhen Miao: "My fourth girl likes to tinker with these things, and she knows I don't like too sweet things, so she made them specially to make Madam Yu laugh."

If you say that you just saw the ceremony.Madam Yu's compliments to Zhen Miao and the two were just a polite way of communicating with women, but now they are a little more sincere: "The granddaughters of the old lady are better than Lan Xinhui, and the juniors are really envious."

The old lady was polite again, knowing that it was impossible for Mrs. Yu to dismiss Zhen Miao and her just for the sake of greeting.

After returning to the Bisha closet, Zhen Miao immediately hugged Zhen Yan's arm: "Second Sister, I miss you so much."

Seeing her childish behavior, Zhen Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Fourth sister, you're so old just now, why are you still acting like a child? You even hurt your foot, you have to carry it on your back when you go in and out."

"Second sister has grown up after only a few months of marriage?" Zhen Miao resentfully let go.

Zhen Yan blushed.Then he straightened his face: "Let me ask you, sister-in-law gave birth in July, what happened?"

Although Yu's nausea was severe in the first three months, the doctor consulted regularly.The pregnancy is extremely safe, and it's a good thing to be born prematurely. If you want to say that there is nothing wrong with it.She doesn't believe it.

Zhen Miao didn't hide from her, and told everything including Jiang Zhu's finding of the earring.

Zhen Yan patted the coffee table angrily.

The lid of the pink tea Gu jumped a few times, making a crisp sound.

"It must be related to Zhen Jing."

Zhen Miao shook her head: "Third sister has long been detained in the aunt's yard, even if she wanted to, she was powerless."

Zhen Yan pursed her lips, her eyes fell on the glass fish tank on the window sill.

A few colorful fish were swimming happily, but they just swam to the edge of the fish tank, and then swam back before hitting the wall. Obviously, it was the experience gained from hitting the wall many times.

Even this fish without intelligence knows not to do useless work.

Zhen Yan raised the corners of her lips and smiled ironically.

"Fourth sister, I only said that it was related to Zhen Jing, not that it must be her."

Zhen Miao opened her eyes wide, feeling a little dazed.

Zhen Yan sighed in her heart.

She is a silly girl, what will she do when she comes to the Duke of Zhen's mansion in the future!

"Fourth sister, you have been ignoring someone."

"Who?"

Zhen Yan remained silent, dipped her finger in the tea, and wrote the word "Lan" on the coffee table.

Zhen Miao stared at the word "Lan" for a long time, and suddenly realized: "Aunt Lan?"

Zhen Yan almost vomited blood: "Fourth sister, can you react more slowly?"

Zhen Miao smiled embarrassedly: "Second Sister, I never thought that an aunt like her would be so capable, why did you think of her all of a sudden? Normally, I don't think of someone like her."

"Fourth sister, you didn't take your concubine seriously just because you easily let go of Aunt Wan's affairs back then?"

"That's not true, it's just that Aunt Lan is very low-key on weekdays. I don't even have much impression of her appearance, and my uncle said a few days ago that she is also sick."

Zhen Yan sneered: "Fourth Sister, remember, this concubine said she was a bastard, but she was nothing worth mentioning, but if something bad happened, she could bite someone hard. This Lan Auntie is quite a character, except Dafang, who would easily think of this person? This is her strength!"

"Second sister, you are even stronger." Zhen Miao looked at Zhen Yan adoringly.

Zhen Yan sneered: "It's not that I'm good, it's just that the matter of the red embroidery thread reminded me. Now that I think about it, it might have been done by Zhen Jing, or by Aunt Lan! The result I saw, I don't know. It’s not necessarily true!”

Zhen Miao silently refilled a cup of tea for Zhen Yan.

Zhen Yan picked it up to drink, and taught Zhen Miao patiently: "Sometimes when you look at one thing, you don't just look at this one thing, but you have to look at it from front to back, from left to back. You don't need to talk about front and back, left and right. Well, for example, if you guess that someone is most likely to do this, then you have to list all the people related to him and think about it. Maybe you will have a new idea."

Zhen Miao nodded receptively.

"Just wait and see. Since you have the earrings of your little girl as proof, my aunt is not a vegetarian, and the result will be available within two days. Aunt Lan, I am afraid that she was mistaken by her cleverness this time."

Zhen Yan is a married woman, so it's not easy to stay for too long, the two sisters went to Wen's place to talk with her for half an afternoon, and then went back home.

Zhen Miao nestled in the green gauze cupboard, a little disconsolate.

She is really not good at these things, what a rush!

Feeling depressed, she fell asleep, and when she woke up, Aluan cleaned her face.He took a comb: "Girl, the maid will comb your hair."

Zhen Miao hopped on one foot and sat in front of the vanity mirror, her sleepy eyes suddenly widened, staring at the few red pimples on her forehead.

A Luan noticed it, and said comfortingly: "Girl, don't worry, you might be on fire."

Zhen Miao squinted her eyes as she looked at the obstructive acne.

A Luan persuaded again: "Girl, eat less meat and spicy food, and eat more light food."

Zhen Miao almost burst into tears.

Hey, is this consolation? This is purely stabbing her in the heart!

It was boring enough.You can't eat meat, you can't eat spicy food, so what's the fun of living!

In fact, at their age, it is quite normal for them to have acne on their faces.It's just that the maids have little oil and water in the first place, and the girls all cherish their appearance, no one like Zhen Miao is not taboo, so naturally it's much better.

Although Zhen Miao didn't pay much attention to appearance.But these pimples are a bit of an eyesore, and once they start to appear, they will look like weeds in the future.One after another, there is no end to cutting.

Thinking of having a pimple-faced face from now on, Zhen Miao's whole body is going to be bad.

She's a woman too!

But if she only eats bland food from now on, it will really kill her. After thinking about it, she thought of the skin whitening recipe taught by Concubine Zhen.

Concubine Zhen made it clear that if she insists on using this prescription, it will not only make the skin smoother than snow, but also smooth as satin. In a word, whoever uses it will know.

Thinking about how troublesome and prodigal that prescription was, Zhen Miao thought about it and finally settled down with a slap on the table.

Trouble is trouble, anyway, she can accept combing her hair two thousand times a day, isn't it just a bath in a different pattern!

As for money, she is now in a time of abundance, and she is not short of money.

Once the decision was made, Zhen Miao took a pen and wrote down the various ingredients needed for the recipe for people to buy, but each ingredient had to be in the same amount, so as not to miss out on the recipe.

Bai Shao was left to handle the matter, and before it was time for dinner, he had already bought all of them.

Zhen Miao's feet could not touch the water yet, so she asked her to carefully put away all the herbs.

Early the next morning, a letter was delivered from the front yard.

Zhen Miao saw Luo Tianzheng's signature, and remembering to ask him, she quickly opened it to read.

After reading it, he pouted helplessly.

This man didn't say anything useful, he just asked her to meet at Yiranju.

Yiranju is a well-known tea house in the capital city. You can't enter unless you are rich or honored. Because it is clean and safe, some female relatives will go there to drink tea occasionally.

With these incidents happening in the mansion, Zhen Miao wanted to go out to get some air, but her feet couldn't go anywhere.

Besides, they don't seem to know each other that well, so it's really embarrassing to go on a date or something.

I wrote a reply letter, telling the other party that she had injured her foot and couldn't go out. If you have anything to say, just write back to her directly.

But I waited and waited, but I didn't get a reply.

Zhen Miao gritted her teeth angrily, and even missed a bowl of dinner.

Wash properly, it's getting late.

"Girl, maidservant, go and turn off the lamp." Qing Ge walked to the candlestick and was about to blow the lamp when she heard a knock on the window.

Zhen Miao, who was only wearing her underwear, was taken aback.

Seeing that there was no trace of panic on Qing Ge's face, she picked up the wick scissors placed next to the candlestick and rushed towards the window. (To be continued..)
