Long Song Fenghua: The Demon Queen Confused the King's Heart

Chapter 36 Sandalwood Powder
In Mu's residence, there has never been a young lady who lived as humble as her.

Her biological mother, Aunt Shi, was originally of mediocre aptitude and could not be favored. After giving birth to such a young lady with an even more unpleasant appearance, she completely lost Mu Wenze's favor.

In recent years, the Mu family has never treated their mother and daughter badly in terms of food and clothing, but as long as they are exceptional things, which ones have not been picked by others, and no one wants the rest, so that their mother and daughter can get their turn?
Recalling the days in Mu's residence these years, Mu Xiurong only felt a sour smell, which kept rising.

If she could choose, she really didn't want to live such an inconspicuous life anymore!

What's more, the few of their sisters are about to reach the age of marriage. The other sisters are either born without status, or beautiful, charming, and at worst, they are Xiaojiabiyu who attracts love and affection.

But she is the only one...with no identity, no appearance, if she can't make another fight and find someone to rely on before then, wouldn't her future be to be a concubine for the bastards from small families? ! ?
Thinking of this, Mu Xiurong tensed every inch of her body, and an indescribable jealousy immediately bound her tightly.

She doesn't want to live like that!Why can't she have what others can have! ?
Could it be that she will live her whole life like a bug in the corner?Mur Xiurong gritted her teeth secretly, she didn't want to live like this, she wanted to fly to a branch, she wanted to find a real support!
Once, the trace of struggle that was still lingering in her eyes has disappeared without a sound.All that remained was a trace of deep jealousy.

Why didn't she know that Mu Changge was innocent, but so what! ?If people are not for themselves, heaven and earth will perish!
Suppressing the trace of jealousy in her eyes, Mur Xiurong slightly moved the corners of her mouth, and continued to act nonchalantly, but that trace of a sneering smile hung between her brows, which could not dissipate no matter what.

The next day, early in the morning.

Mu Changge, who had finished washing and changing, just sat down at the table, and after a while, Bizhu came in with breakfast.

Seeing that Bizhu's expression was a little off, Mu Changge said to the other servants in the same room: "It's enough that Bizhu is here to serve you, you guys should go out first."

After all the servants had retreated, Bizhu lowered her voice, "Miss, you don't know yet, I just heard some women say that Miss San probably won't be able to go to Zhuangzi."

Mu Changge had just scooped up a spoonful of hot porridge when he heard this and paused, "Did the old lady change her mind?"

"It is said that the third lady is ill and can't even get out of bed. Last night, a doctor was invited overnight, and even the old lady was alarmed."

Mu Changge frowned, Mu Baozheng's illness was too timely.He was going to Zhuangzi the next day, and he fell ill the first day. It was not difficult to figure out what was going on with this illness.

Picking up a steamed bun and putting it in front of Mu Changge, Bizhu was still wondering, "Tell me, why did Third Miss suddenly fall ill?"

Bizhu, a girl, is sometimes too naive in her thoughts.Mu Changge smiled, there is no need to be curious about why Mu Baozheng fell ill suddenly.

There is a lady, with her ability, let the doctor fabricate the fact that Mu Baozheng was ill, so simple that it is as easy as pie.The doctors all said that she was really sick, so who and what could be done to find out if she was really sick?

After being stunned for a moment, Bizhu finally understood, "Miss is still smart, why can't this servant never think of it. Then...Miss, do you think the old lady will know?"

"Of course I know." Mu Changge saw what Bizhu wanted to ask at a glance, "But even if she knew, she would never drive her to Zhuangzi again."

In the hearts of the old man and the old lady, how to bring the Mu family back to the glorious status of their ancestors is the most important thing.

The old lady will never be soft-hearted when she wants to deal with anyone in private, but on the bright side, she must always put protecting the face of the entire Mu family in the first place.

Such a scandal before has already been a disgrace to the Mu family, but now if there is another farce caused by Miss Yi pretending to be sick, just for the sake of not learning the rules, it will only make the Mu family lose face even more.

Therefore, no matter how well the old lady knew it, she would definitely retreat for the sake of the Mu family.

Bizhu was still a little upset in her heart, but there was no trace of annoyance on Mu Changge's face, and he was calm.

"The future is long, there is nothing to worry about." Mu Changge swallowed a mouthful of warm porridge without haste. The matter of Mu Baozheng seemed to be a foregone conclusion. With this in mind, it must be time for Mu Xiurong to arrive.

There was no deviation in Mu Changge's assumption. After she had eaten breakfast, she just spit out the tea she rinsed her mouth with, when she saw the maid outside, leading Mu Xiurong into the house.

Really unable to hold back anymore, a thin cold light appeared in Mu Changge's eyes.

"Why did Sixth Sister come so early in the morning?" Mu Changge smiled gently, and when he raised his eyes, he had already concealed the chill.

Mu Xiurong held a can of things in her hand, and gently placed it in front of Mu Changge's eyes.

"Yesterday I went to the old lady and mentioned that I would go to the ancestral hall to copy scriptures with my second sister. The old lady agreed very much and gave us two such things."

Mu Xiurong raised her hand and opened the jar very carefully. Just by smelling it, Mu Changge knew what was in it.

This quiet and peaceful fragrance can only be found in the fine sandalwood powder kept by the old lady.

"The old lady said, this is a solemn matter. Those who copy scriptures must start fasting and bathing three days in advance. After bathing, they can't use those ordinary incense powders, no matter how expensive they are, in front of the Bodhisattva. Frivolous, you can only use this sandalwood powder on your body."

Mu Xiurong looked at Mu Changge, seeming to be very frank, "The old lady asked me to divide into two, but you are the older sister, how can I, as the younger sister, surpass the second elder sister to make the decision. So this jar of sandalwood powder, I'll bring them all, and the second sister will divide them by herself."

These words are very flattering, but what Mu Xiurong thinks in her heart is definitely not because of respecting Mu Changge.It was this jar of sandalwood powder that had to be made by Mu Changge.

Only in this way, she will be able to make Mu Changge dumb and eat coptis afterwards!At that time... the corners of Mur Xiurong's mouth couldn't help moving, and she almost couldn't help laughing.

Mu Changge raised his eyebrows, a slight smile swayed from the corner of his mouth, called Bizhu, asked her to fetch an empty jar, and said, "Sixth sister respects me so much, I don't know how to repay her." gone."

"I also suddenly remembered, it seems that I have never given you anything, how about I give you a big gift in three or two days?"

After three or two days, I'm afraid that by then, it will be unknown whether you will still have the life to give this great gift.Mu Xiurong chewed this vicious sentence three or five times in his mouth, and when he spit it out again, it turned into an extremely honest and well-behaved sentence.

"Second sister, please don't say that. It's enough for my own sisters to have some kindness, and they don't need to be as polite as outsiders."

"My sister, then you don't have to be polite to me." Mu Changge laughed, his eyes narrowed into two gentle arcs, and only such a gentle and watery expression can hide the bottom of the water. A ray of sharpness was so obscured that no one could even notice it.

Holding the jar, Mu Changge held a small silver spoon and made two portions. Finally, he placed the silver spoon on the edge of the porcelain jar and knocked it. A layer of fine powder immediately fell on the table. Like a thin layer of mist.

"The old lady's face powder is so good that I can't say anything." Mu Changge gently wiped the table with his fingertips, "It's thin and light, and the fragrance is just right."

Mur Xiurong's eyes turned secretly, but she still had a stupid look on her face, "Second sister said yes, it must be good, and I don't understand these things. However, I have heard people say that in this face powder, If it is mixed with anything else, it will change color when it touches the silver."

"What are you talking about?" Mu Changge squeezed the veil, wiped the silver spoon carefully, and wiped off the layer of fine powder. The silver spoon is still as bright as new. "The fragrance powder given by the old lady must be The top ones are good, how can there be anything mixed in."

After holding a can of sandalwood powder that was given out, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, Mu Xiurong left Qiancui Courtyard.

On the table, the remaining can of sandalwood powder, the lid has not been closed, and the faint fragrance gradually wafted away.

"Miss, should this servant put it away?" Bi Zhu asked, this time the thing was incense powder, and she also saw it with her own eyes, it was poured out by her own lady spoon by spoon, and she used a silver spoon, which she had never seen before. The silver spoon changed color. In this thing, it may not be able to be tampered with.

Mu Changge waved his hand, "Don't be in a hurry, just put it here for a while, the sandalwood powder in the old lady's room is always the best, save it for us to fumigate the room first, no Right?"

After talking to Bizhu, Mu Changge picked up a little bit with his fingertips, rubbed it gently on the back of his hand, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it. The aroma of sandalwood always has a kind of tranquility and elegance.

Amidst the elegant sandalwood, the chill in Mu Changge's eyes gradually deepened, and in an instant, it condensed into a thin layer of ice.

A sneer of sarcasm climbed the corner of her lips.

Does something that can kill people have to be poisoned?

If she hadn't kept the memories of her previous life, and hadn't been on guard against Mur Xiurong, she must have lost at least half her life on this jar of face powder in a few days!

This sandalwood powder is indeed good, so good that it can't be better, even in Mu Mansion, except for the old lady, other people may not be qualified to use it.

It is a top-notch face powder, and it is the old lady's heart.

However, for Mu Changge today, it is simply wishful thinking to use such a superficial method to blind her eyes!
