Treating the face

After Su Xiaomu sent Mrs. Hou away, he happily went back to find Gu Jingcheng.

She told him about her encounter with Mrs. Hou Ye, and also told him that she was going to treat Mrs. Hou Ye's face tomorrow.

"I'm really lucky. I thought there was something wrong with her face at the beginning. After confirming it later, I found out that I can indeed cure it. Gu Jingcheng, you don't know how smart I was when I talked to Mrs. Hou Ye just now. That's called a

Take it step by step and you will win."

Su Xiaomu raised her chin proudly and continued to move forward happily: "I will wait at home for them to pick me up tomorrow. I am happy today and I will make breakfast for you tomorrow morning."

It goes without saying that when people are happy, they like to go into the kitchen and move around.

After she comes back from the Hou Mansion tomorrow, she will stop by the market to buy some fresh vegetables.

Come back and cook a delicious meal for Gu Jingcheng.

"You are indeed powerful. There are few women in this world who have as many abilities as you. But even so, you should be careful when you go to the Marquis Mansion tomorrow. If anything happens, send someone to Shangguan Mansion to talk to me."

Gu Jingcheng always knew that Su Xiaomu was capable, but he still couldn't help but worry about her.

He looked at Su Xiaomu with gentle and caring eyes. If he waited a little longer, he would be able to use his power to protect Su Xiaomu when he gradually became stronger.

By then, even in the capital, Su Xiaomu will be able to do what she likes freely without having to look at other people's faces.

"Okay, but I haven't asked you yet how are you these days in Shangguan Mansion? Does Lord Shangguan often remind you of your homework and criticize your articles?"

After all, he is the former prince's young master, so he can be regarded as the prince's tutor.

Gu Jingcheng studied in his house, and he was lucky to be able to get his advice on academic matters.

"It's not often, just occasionally. After all, I'm just a young student. If Lord Shangguan takes me too seriously, I'm afraid I'll make others jealous. But now it's very good. He will occasionally help me.

Find some papers to write on, and I will be as sure of success as you are in taking the exams in the coming days."

Gu Jingcheng knew what was going on in the imperial examination. Everything was ready now, all he needed was the east wind.

The two talked all the way and returned to the yard happily.

Su Xiaomu planned to cook porridge tomorrow, so she soaked the rice one night in advance.

She got up very early the next day, partly because she wanted to make breakfast for Gu Jingcheng, and partly because she wanted to get up and pack her things.

Su Xiaomu ate two big, soft meat buns in one go. After Gu Jingcheng finished drinking and eating the buns, she packed some more for him to eat at Shangguan Mansion.

Of course there are also some pastries. Gu Jingcheng said that he was not used to eating Shangguanfu's food. Before, he would always leave some to go home and eat separately.

It didn't matter if Su Xiaomu wasn't in the capital before, but now he lived with him, and it was before the imperial examination. Of course, it was impossible to see that Gu Jingcheng was hungry, so he made some cakes for him temporarily and promised him to eat one at night.

Well done.

Gu Jingcheng liked to eat Su Xiaomu's cooking and asked her several times what she wanted to eat for dinner before going out.

People came to Wudinghou Mansion very quickly. Su Xiaomu had just finished cleaning the kitchen when someone knocked on the door.

She took the facial treatment items she had prepared in the morning and got into the carriage with the maid who came to pick her up.

This maid is not the one who was pinched last night, but she looks younger and more beautiful.

"I wonder what I call my lady?"

As soon as the carriage moved, the little maid took the initiative to talk to Su Xiaomu.

She looks young, with big eyes and a round face. She is very easy to get along with at first sight, making it easy for people to feel close to her.

"Just call me Madam Su. It's my first time to go to the Hou Mansion. I wonder if you can tell me some things I need to pay attention to in the Hou Mansion?"

Su Xiaomu very wisely took out a purse from her waist and put it into the little maid's hand, with a rather embarrassed look on her face.

"To be honest with you, girl, I never had the opportunity to go to a wealthy family like the Hou Mansion before, so now I'm pounding in my heart. If I hadn't been lucky enough to have the chance to help my wife with treatment this time, I don't know how many years it would have taken for her to be cured.

There is such an opportunity.”

When talking to people in high positions, the important thing is to put yourself down and put others up.

Although the person in front of him is only a young maid, but if she can be sent to pick him up, she must not be a fuel-efficient lamp.

Such a kind face will inevitably be matched with a careful heart.

"Madam, you're welcome. Our Marquis and his wife are the kindest. What other rules does the Marquis's house have? As long as the lady can really cure our wife's face as you said, our wife will still be grateful.

.”

The little girl had a young face and looked ignorant, but she collected money very quickly. She put her purse in her sleeves and took the initiative to get closer to Su Xiaomu, and her smile became bright.

The carriage swayed and it didn't take long to arrive at Wudinghou Mansion.

The little maid led Su Xiaomu into the house. After walking through countless gardens and crossing many covered bridges, Su Xiaomu saw Mrs. Marquis in an exquisite courtyard.

Probably because she was in her own yard today, Mrs. Houye did not wear a veil on her face, but exposed her long face directly to the air.

The yard is very large, with many precious flowers, plants and trees growing there, and there are also some that are blooming and bearing fruit.

But even though they all exuded a fragrant aroma, Su Xiaomu still smelled the rancid smell coming from Mrs. Hou Ye's face.

It was a very indescribable smell, as if something was smelly and stuffy in the hot weather.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Is what you're holding in your hand the thing you need to treat my face?"

Mrs. Houye saw Su Xiaomu and waved her over.

"The daughter of the common people has met Madam. It is indeed me who is going to treat Madam's face. I wonder if I can take a closer look at Madam's face?"

Although Su Xiaomu has only been in the capital for a very short time, he has learned some rules and etiquette.

She greeted Mrs. Marquis according to the salute method in her memory, and put the medicine box she brought on the table in her slightly surprised eyes.

"If Madam agrees, I can treat Madam's face right now."

Su Xiaomu spoke sincerely, as if he was doing everything for the good of Mr. Hou and his wife.

The wife wanted her face to heal as soon as possible, so of course she would not refuse at this moment.

She nodded and allowed Su Xiaomu to get closer.

"As long as you can cure my face as you said, I will definitely reward you greatly."

Su Xiaomu is now Madam Hou's only life-saving straw. She almost puts all her hopes on Su Xiaomu alone.

There's nothing she can do about it, her face got worse again this morning.

Originally, there were only a few small areas of the face that were ulcerated, but today, the entire left side of the face was connected together, and the pieces were rotten next to each other.
