Chapter 405 Xiangling's Birthday
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Xu was already dazzled.

Xiangling even asked her to take a closer look, and the lady seemed to be used to it. Seeing Mrs. Xu approaching her, she graciously showed her, and even offered to help with sales.

"Let me tell you, the things from Mrs. Qin's place are really good, even the empress of today is using them. Look at my skin, isn't it smooth and shiny?"

Mrs. Xu nodded: "It is indeed smooth and shiny."

The woman smiled and said: "Buy it, buy it, all the women in the capital are using it. I'll tell you secretly, there are some old men who are also secretly using it."

Having said this, the woman laughed even more happily.

Xiangling didn't expose it, saying that this person was her sister-in-law, but lowered her voice and said, "Sister-in-law, just lie here, just close your eyes and enjoy it."

She lay on a soft couch as Xiangling said, and Xiangling ordered the maid to bring water to wash her hands, and then washed her face and massaged herself.

After some operations, and the sister-in-law was tired from running all the way before, she fell asleep after pressing and pressing.

Everyone here has long been used to it, because their massage techniques are extremely comfortable, and there are often noble ladies who fall asleep while receiving maintenance.

So when Mrs. Xu woke up and was about to feel sorry for falling asleep accidentally, Xiangling smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you didn't fall asleep alone, it's okay. Now sister-in-law's face has been fixed I've washed it for you too, and I'll ask someone to show you a mirror now."

One sentence resolved Mrs. Xu's embarrassment. The maid brought the mirror, and Mrs. Xu couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the radiant face in the mirror.

"Is this really me? The skin not only looks delicate, but also feels slippery."

"Of course it's you."

Xiangling put down the mirror, and then said to her: "I have other makeup tools here, sister-in-law, let me put on makeup for you, and when we go home later, brother will be happy to see it."

She nodded, and Xiangling took the box and carefully dressed her up.

In addition to trimming her eyebrows and applying lip balm, she also put flowers on her forehead.

"These are all the makeup looks popular among women in Beijing recently. They look like they have put on makeup, but they don't seem to have put on makeup. It's fresh and natural, and it's more suitable for the scorching summer."

After putting on the makeup, Mrs. Xu's makeup was no longer as old-fashioned as before, but as fresh as a pair of young girls, even with a touch of playfulness.

The maidservant next to her also praised at this time: "Madam's make-up is so pretty."

Such praise made Mrs. Xu a little overwhelmed.

She even asked a little guilty: "Is it really okay for me to go back dressed like this?"

"Of course, sister-in-law, you listen to me. There's no need to follow so many rules. It's a place to relax when you get home."

When the two of them went back again, Master Xu and Qin Laiwang were gone.

Only after listening to the servant girl at home did they know that both of them were left in the palace by the emperor.

As soon as the words were spoken here, someone from the palace sent over to convey the news: "You two ladies, there is no need to prepare dinner. The empress said that you are invited to have a small gathering in the palace."

In fact, Xiangling had already guessed that this would be the result. After looking at Mrs. Xu, she said to Mr. Fu, who was passing on the message: "Thank you, Mr. Fu. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Fu. We will pack up and go later." .”

After speaking, she also took a piece of silver to pass away.

The palace banquet in the palace is not very luxurious.

Qin Zhiyi advocates frugality, so she doesn't cook too many dishes. Could it be some dishes that she selected that everyone likes to eat.

No one else attended the dinner, except for Mrs. Xu and his wife Xiangling, followed by Grandma and her children.

Madam Xu saw Qin Zhiyi's swollen belly the first time she saw her.

Asking her to look at her stomach, Qin Zhiyi was not polite, and simply waved at her.

Mrs. Xu understood what she meant and approached slowly.

Qin Zhiyi smiled and said: "I haven't seen you for many years, Mrs. Xu is still the same as before. No, it should be said that she looks better than before."

"Especially this makeup, and this skin, really beautiful."

Mrs. Xu's cheeks were flushed by her praise.

After all, when she entered the palace just now, she sat next to Mr. Xu under the gesture of the maid, and saw her husband also look at her with his eyes.

That look of not taking her eyes off had already caused her heart to twitch like a deer.

Now that the queen empress praises her like that, she is really pretty.

"The Empress is awsome. The good makeup is all thanks to Xiangling. As for the skin, it's because of the facial massage done at Ruyizhai."

Qin Zhiyi smiled, the reason why the mask has such a great effect is not only the moisturizing and hydrating properties of the pearl powder, but also because of their good foundation.

So he said unceremoniously: "It's also because Mrs. Xu is pretty."

Mrs. Xu didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while, so she could only ask softly: "Your Majesty, this belly..."

"More than four months."

She admitted it openly, and Mrs. Xu hurriedly said congratulations.

Fortunately, the banquet officially started at this time, and the maids brought the dishes one after another. Everyone sat neatly, and she was no exception.

Everyone enjoyed the meal.

After coming out of the palace, Mrs. Xu held Xiangling's hand and said softly, "Xiangling, because your elder brother and I are going back to Xu's residence."

She didn't continue what she said, but Xiangling lowered her eyes at this moment: "I won't go back. Presumably, you have heard about what happened last time. I have already severed relations with them."

Speaking of this, she was afraid that sister-in-law would feel uncomfortable, so she added: "Don't worry, they just severed ties with me, sister-in-law, what should you do? After you go to Xu's mansion tomorrow, you will move to a new house someday. Come visit."

Mrs. Xu pondered for a moment, then nodded: "That's fine."

After the two came out of the palace, they quickly boarded the sedan chair.

The days passed extremely peacefully, but it also explained what time flies like an arrow.

In the blink of an eye, Xiangling's birthday has arrived.

After Qin Zhiyi asked, he learned that Laiwang had already prepared the items on the list, so he had to admit that this guy was really considerate.

And the whole Xu Mansion was much more lively than before. Although the banquet was only for his own family, the house was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the faces of the maids and servants were full of joy.

After Qin Zhi realized that Xiangling had come out to greet her in person, looking at Xiangling's face brimming with happiness, it was not difficult to guess her joy.

"aunt."

Xiangling yelled with a smile, Qin Zhiyi had asked someone to bring in the birthday present.

"You take these little things first, Auntie doesn't have any other good things."

Just as he was talking, Laiwang also came out of the house, and when he saw her, he was about to salute her immediately.

Qin Zhiyi supported him: "They are all from my own family, what are you doing so hard for?"

Xiangling also said at this time: "Yes, let's all go in first, don't let aunt wait outside the door anymore."
