Hand Medicine Fragrance

Chapter 13 Spring Dew
Hearing that the girl from the Chai family paid a large sum of money from the Yun family, she spent a lot of money. The matchmaker gathered all the little girls in the yard with a big smile on her face, "Stand up! Show your spirits! Come on, if you can be picked by this lady, it will be a great blessing for you! This lady is a well-known good person in Fangcheng, her father..."

"Okay." Chai Sujin interrupted the matchmaker, and walked forward.

The little girls lined up neatly in four rows, and there were about ten people in each row.

She walked by one by one, and the little girls squatted down to salute attentively, and whispered expectantly: "Hello, Miss!"

But when she passed by the little girl on the farthest side of the third row, the little girl stood still and didn't look up.His face was almost buried in his chest, his hands were hanging in front of him, his fingers were tightly hooked together, as if he was very nervous.

"What's your name?" Chai Sujin asked.

The girl was taken aback for a moment, raised her head slightly, saw the hem of Chai Sujin's clogs, and then looked around to confirm that she was asking herself, "My servant, I used to be called Chunlu... Please, please give me a name..."

"This girl is not good. Miss, you are looking at other girls. There are so many good girls! Look at this!" The matchmaker hurried forward and said.

Chai Sujin raised her eyebrows, "Not good? What's not good?"

"This girl is lazy and greedy, and she was sold after stealing from the master's house!" The prostitute approached Chai Sujin and whispered.

"I didn't!" Chun Lu raised her head fiercely, stared at the matchmaker fiercely, and panted slightly, "I didn't steal anything!"

No wonder this girl kept her head down. On her fair little face, there was a scab of knife marks, and the bloody streaks hanging on her face were very frightening.

"Ouch! Who told you to look up? Did you scare the young lady? Get out, I won't call you in the future, and you won't be allowed to come out!" The matchmaker pushed Chunlu.

"Wait a minute." Chai Sujin looked at her face, maybe it was the same pity that made her feel compassionate, "What do you know?"

Chunlu glanced at Chai Sujin in surprise, shook off the matchmaker, gave a blessing, and said eagerly: "My maid can do all kinds of work, such as washing, cooking, and sweeping the yard! This maid can cook well! This maid didn't steal anything, and I can't do anything." Don't be lazy, please buy a maid!"

Her posture in saluting is good, and her small face is especially delicate if the knife marks are removed.

"Miss Chai, think about it carefully. Have you seen the injury on her face? It was done by her previous master before he sold her out!" The prostitute smiled sinisterly, "It shows that she made a mistake. Not small."

"It can be done like this, it can be seen that her previous master was vicious and narrow-minded." Chai Sujin paused, "Who was her previous master?"

"It's the second wife of the Yang family's gold shop!" The prostitute snorted.

The words Yangjia Jinpu were like a thunderbolt, which made Chai Sujin froze.

Brother Xuan, who was standing not far away, let out a low growl and clenched his fists as if being stabbed.

The matchmaker was taken aback, and then remembered the festival between the Chai family brothers and sisters and the Yang family, "He...he..." She glanced at Brother Xuan in horror, lest he would go crazy here if he was stimulated.

"Go, go! Change someone!" The prostitute pushed Chunlu away.

"I want her." Chai Sujin pointed at Chunlu and said.

The toothmaid was surprised, but Chunlu was full of surprise. She pushed the toothmaid away and knelt down towards Chai Sujin, "Thank you miss, thank you master!"

Chai Sujin took over Chunlu's prostitution contract from the prostitute, and only then did she understand why the prostitute was unwilling to sell Chunlu to her.

It turned out that Chunlu was sold by the master's family because of the injury on her face and because of theft, and her value was more than three times lower than that of other maids.

She didn't care about the amount of money, the purity and firmness in this servant girl's eyes made her feel kind.

After paying the money and taking the deed of prostitution, the Chai family siblings took Chunlu home.

When Brother Xuan looked at Chunlu, his fists were clenched all the time, and his two thick ink-dyed eyebrows were tightly wrinkled together, his whole body was tense, making one look nervous.

"She was also victimized by the Yang family, just like us." Chai Sujin looked at Brother Xuan and said slowly.

Brother Xuan took a deep breath, nodded heavily, and then gradually loosened his fist.

The nervous Chunlu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Chai Sujin looked at her and asked: "The second wife of the Yang family is Yang Huizhi's wife, right? Why did she scratch your face?"

Chunlu said embarrassingly: "Second Madam wronged my maidservant... wronged my maidservant to seduce the second master of the Yang family, but the maidservant didn't! The maidservant can swear to God! Second Madam Yang didn't believe it. Face, sell your maidservant cheaply."

"Is it because Yang Huizhi wants to take your house?" Chai Sujin said indifferently.

Chunlu was taken aback, "How did miss know?"

Chai Sujin snorted coldly, "It's hard to change your nature. Yang Huizhi is lustful and dared to humiliate my mother in the street. If you don't avenge this revenge, you are not worthy of being a child!"

"But the Yang family is rich and powerful..." Chunlu also had resentment in her eyes, but more of it was helplessness.

Chai Sujin looked at Chunlu's scratched face, and said firmly and calmly: "No matter how difficult it is, there will always be a way. I will heal your face first, and then we will take revenge."

Chunlu's eyes widened, "My face? Can it be cured?"

Chai Sujin raised her finger and pointed at her own face, "My face is naturally like this, and it can be cured, let alone yours is caused by man-made?"

Chunlu was so excited beyond words when she heard this, she bent her knees, "Thank you so much, miss!"

With Chunlu, the Chai family, which had become messy after the Ji family left, became orderly again.

The stove was on fire again, and the whole house felt a bit more like home.

Chunlu is really capable and diligent. While boiling hot water in the kitchen, she sweeps the garden path.After the hot water was boiled, all the rooms were wiped again.Like a spinning top that can't stop, although he is busy, he is full of smiles.

Seeing Chai Sujin who was dispensing medicine and making ointment in the room, she worked harder.

As soon as it was time for dinner, the Chai family smelled fragrant, and the strong smell of food drew out the gluttons in people's stomachs.

With Chunlu taking care of the housework, Chai Sujin, who was preoccupied with preparing the ointment, couldn't help but look up from the pile of medicinal materials and look longingly.

Brother Xuan was just poking his head at the door, as if he wanted to call her, but he was afraid of disturbing her.

"Brother Xuan, did Wen Zhao come back after buying some food?" Chai Sujin put down the herbs in his hand and asked, rubbing Hungry Bian's stomach.

Brother Xuan smiled and shook his head, "Sister, come quickly, Chunlu has finished the meal!"

When Chai Sujin came to the front hall, Chunlu had already put the food on the table.

Four dishes, one soup and one meal, all the dishes were bought by Wenzhao two days ago, and some of them were already wilted in the kitchen.None of the three of them knew how to cook, so even the ready dishes could only be left to sit.

However, in Chunlu's hands, the common dishes can be transformed into so many tricks. The dishes are obviously simple, but they are full of fragrance, which makes people's index fingers twitch.

Even the skins of vegetables, melons and fruits that should be thrown away have been turned into decorative carvings in Chunlu's hands. This skill is comparable to that of an imperial chef in the palace.

Chai Sujin nodded to Chunlu in surprise, "I really found a treasure!"

Chunlu lowered her head shyly, her face was slightly red, if her cheeks hadn't been scratched, this shy look would have been too beautiful to behold.

Chai Sujin sighed regretfully, "I will fix your face as soon as possible."

"Thank you, Miss, I'm not in a hurry." Chun Lu rubbed her hands, "You and Young Master, can you still eat the food if you try it?"

"What delicious food did you buy and eat alone behind my back?" Ma Wenzhao's voice came from the door.

Chunlu was startled, and looked up in amazement.

Ma Wenzhao had already carried the food box and strode inside.

Seeing the dishes on the table, looking at the siblings and the sudden spring dew at home, he smiled slightly, "Let me guess, this meal doesn't look like something bought from outside."

Chunlu hurriedly buried her head in her chest, not daring to speak.

"Chunlu made it, isn't the craftsmanship good?" Chai Sujin smiled.

Ma Wenzhao sized Chunlu up and down, and asked sharply, "This carving technique is not owned by the people. Who are you?"
