427. Chapter 427 Retching a mouthful of blood [427]
Xia Zhenai turned her eyes sideways, looked at the jade box in her hand, frowned, took it over and looked at it exploratively: "What is this?"
This jade box is very delicately made.
One look at it and you can tell it's worth a lot.
Zhong Qing flipped through the impurities casually, shrugged and said, "I don't know, it seems to be aromatherapy or something, I didn't look carefully."
Xia Zhenai was suspicious: "Then how did you get it?"
"It was a gift from someone else." Zhong Qing responded casually.
"Someone else gave it to you, and you asked me to give it to Haoxuan?" Xia Zhenai handed the jade box back to her: "That's embarrassing of you! Let's forget it. I appreciate your kindness."
Zhong Qing said angrily: "If you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, how will my eldest cousin know."
Xia Zhenai rolled her eyes at her: "I don't want to give him other people's things!" It's not like she didn't have to give it to him, it seemed so insincere, it would be better not to give it to him.
Zhong Qing curled her lips, then looked at the jade box carefully, fumbled for a while, but somehow, she suddenly opened the lid.
What's inside is exactly what Zhong Qing said, like a paste like aromatherapy.
There is also a faint and elegant fragrance coming to your nose.
"It smells good!" Zhong Qing handed it to Xia Zhenai, "Zhenai, smell it and see."
Xia Zhenai lowered her head slightly, smelled it, and immediately frowned, feeling that the scent was too familiar.
I don't know where I've smelled it.
"What's wrong? Don't you like the smell?" Zhong Qing took it over again and smelled it carefully: "I think I like this scent very much."
The elegant and refreshing fragrance is refreshing.
"If you like it, you can take it back yourself!" Xia Zhenai said disapprovingly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and the maid's voice came immediately: "Madam, the old lady said, the soup is ready. Do you want to bring it up, or do you want to go downstairs?"
Hearing the maid's words, Xia Zhenai sighed helplessly: "I'd better go downstairs."
Zhongqing smiled happily and said: "Zhenai, my grandma is good to you. Fortunately, such a 'good thing' is not my turn."
Xia Zhenai glanced at her with contempt: "You are the only one who talks too much! You are so envious, why don't you stay for dinner?"
"Forget it." Zhongqing put the jade box back into her bag, helped Xia Zhenai stand up, and said with a smile on her face: "I have an appointment tonight."
"A date with a boyfriend?!" Xia Zhenai joked.
"Oh..." Zhongqing's cheeks turned slightly red: "I won't tell you."
Seeing Zhong Qing's embarrassed look, Xia Zhenai just smiled and stopped teasing her.
Walking downstairs, Zhongqing said hello to the old lady Leng and planned to leave.
Old lady Leng came out of the kitchen: "Zhongqing, aren't you going to have dinner?"
Zhongqing waved her hands and walked outside the house.
"Grandma, Zhongqing has made an appointment with her boyfriend, so let her go."
Old Mrs. Leng ignored her and greeted Xia Zhenai: "Zhenai, sit down quickly and have some soup first. When Haoxuan comes back, you can have dinner."
Looking at the dark medicinal soup in front of her, Xia Zhenai suddenly began to worry.
Looking at Xia Zhenai sitting there motionless, Mrs. Leng asked suspiciously: "What's wrong? Doesn't it taste good?"
"No..." Xia Zhenai smiled, picked up the spoon, and took a sip. Suddenly, she felt a tightness in her chest, and a warmth surged into her heart.
Xia Zhenai's throat felt hot, and she retched without warning and a mouthful of blood came out! Xia Zhenai turned her eyes sideways, looked at the jade box in her hand, frowned, took it over and looked at it exploratively: "What is this?"
