Chapter 22: Exploring the Pine Garden at Night

"Second Miss, you can't do that!" Man Xi was so scared that she knelt and crawled forward two steps to hug Feng Yuheng's legs. But as soon as she raised her hands, she remembered the onychomycosis on her fingers, and her hands froze in mid-air.

Neither rising nor falling.

Feng Yuheng changed her previous attitude and suddenly took both of Manxi's hands and raised them in front of her.

"Second Miss." Manxi wanted to withdraw her hand, but found that she couldn't.

"Don't move, let me see."

She was full of joy, shame and fear. Her nails had been like this for more than half a year. In order to prevent others from finding out, she had to get up in the middle of the night and apply cinnabar. During the day, she also did some light work that did not touch water, so she hid it like this.

For a long time now...

"Manxi." Feng Yuheng studied her nails, "You know what my grandfather used to do, right?"

Manxi was stunned and nodded subconsciously, "Listen, I heard about it." The entire Feng Mansion knew about the Yao family.

"Well. I have been close to my grandfather since I was a child. I read a lot of medical books and learned a lot of medical theory. I was young and curious at that time, and I searched for a lot of various folk remedies. If I said that you have onychomycosis, I would

It can be cured, do you believe it?"

The happiness turned to stone in an instant. Sometimes happiness comes too suddenly and it is easy to be overwhelmed. This girl opened her mouth wide, opening and closing her upper and lower lips for a long time, but she didn't make any sound.

Feng Yuheng slapped her hard on the shoulder, and then she woke up. Manxi exclaimed: "Really?"

"Fake." She threw her hands away and leaned back in her chair, "Where did you say before? Oh, yes, I'm going to report it to my mother and grandmother."

"Second Miss!" Manxi's heart was rising and falling. Sometimes it fell back into her stomach, and sometimes it rose to her throat. "Second Miss, please spare this slave! Please help Second Miss, please help Second Miss."

!”

Feng Yuheng shook her head, "You are a first-class maid beside your mother. Even if you want to save your life, you have to ask your mother to save you. I am just an unpopular concubine. How can I save you?"

Manxi is also smart. She understood what Feng Yuheng said. If she wants to save her status and life, she must understand the situation at hand. Although the eldest lady is the master, she is not a safe master. Even though she is

A first-class maid is punished from time to time. It can range from being deducted from the monthly schedule to being beaten with a stick. If given a choice, no one would want to follow a master like that. What's more, she now has such a lever in Feng Yuheng's hands. If

If I don't express my position quickly, I'm afraid I will be kicked out of Feng Mansion tonight.

Thinking of this, Manxi no longer hesitated, took two steps back and knelt down again, and kowtowed to Feng Yuheng seriously: "The slave recognizes his master, one of the reasons is that he was assigned by the government and has no choice.

The second reason is to be kind to yourself, and this is your choice as a slave. As long as the second lady can cure the slave's onychomycosis, the slave is willing to obey the second lady's orders."

Very good. Feng Yuheng nodded, "Raise your head." She met her happy eyes and looked at each other.

Manxi felt that the second young lady's eyes were full of inquiry, as if she wanted to see through the person. Even her subtle thoughts could not escape the other person's eyes.

After a while, Feng Yu Heng withdrew her probing gaze and asked Man Xi, "If you have any other requests, please tell me."

Yes, Manxi still had something on her mind, she could see it. When people lie or think, their pupils will shrink at a special frequency. The skills learned from the officers in the Marine Corps are not for nothing.

Manxi was also a cheerful person. After hearing her question, she said, "Please Miss Second, please save my mother."

"Your mother?" Feng Yuheng understood, "Your mother also has onychomycosis."

"Yes." Manxi cried and said: "My mother's disease is more serious than mine. It has been for more than three years. She has it not only on her hands but also on her feet. She used to work in the government, but then she got this strange disease.

The housekeeper found out and was kicked out. Please help the second lady to save my mother."

So that’s it.

"I can help you treat this onychomycosis, but it won't be effective in a day or two."

"My slave understands." Manxi wiped away her tears, "From now on, the second young lady will just give orders. This slave will never reveal any flaws in front of others, and the news from the eldest lady will be passed on in time.

It’s a joke, even if the second lady doesn’t give treatment, people have discovered her problem. How can she be disobedient?

"Okay." She motioned Manxi to get up, looked at her nails again, reached into her sleeves, and took out a small bottle of nail polish from the drawer of the pharmacy. "Come sit here, and I'll help you get through these two days.

When I get a foothold in Feng Mansion, I will think about treating you."

Whether it can cure the disease or not is another matter later. Manxi felt that the thing that the second lady applied to her was much better than her Koudan! The second lady also said that this thing is not afraid of water, and it can be applied at least once and it will last.

Seven days, and the color is prettier than Codan. With this, she doesn’t have to get up secretly in the middle of the night every day.

Therefore, people's hearts do not necessarily have to be bought with money. If you want to win over someone, the most important thing is to know what they need most.

After applying the nail polish, Feng Yuheng called Grandma Sun in to change the water in the bathtub. Manxi remembered that she had tested the water temperature with her hands before, and now that the second lady was so cautious, she thought that this disease could be passed on to others.

Manxi became more and more frightened as she thought about it, hoping that she could recover from her strange illness as soon as possible.

Feng Yuheng took a bath by herself without letting Man Xi wait on her, leaving Man Xi beside her to tell her the purpose of Shen's sending the three of them here, as well as some secrets about Feng Mansion that she knew.

As she expected, the Feng family really wanted to get rid of her halfway and change the position of the ninth prince's concubine to Feng Chenyu. Feng Jinyuan suddenly changed his mind this morning, which made Ms. Shen start to panic. But Feng Jinyuan

There was no breakthrough there, so Shen could only regulate Liuyuan to ensure the interests of her daughter.

After taking a bath, Manxi came over with a new set of clothes.

"This is a gift from the servants in the mansion. Each of the three masters has a set. There are also inner clothes. It's getting late, so Miss can just change into the inner clothes." Manxi said as she opened the inner clothes and prepared to give them to her.

Feng Yuheng wears it.

Feng Yuheng put on her underwear and looked at another gauze skirt. The water-red gauze material looked good, but when she touched it, it was as hard as a blade and the material was as rough as sandpaper. Wearing such a skirt on her body,

It would be strange if the skin is not worn out.

"Who brought the clothes?" she asked.

Manxi replied: "It's Nanny Li. The servants and the treasure hall are only required to be responsible for personally serving the second lady. All the things dealing with the princess are done by Nanny Li." She also touched the gauze skirt.

, then frowned, "Why are you so hard?"

"An old servant, even if she is Shen's nanny, she has no right to make her own decisions. It's obviously Shen who is setting me up."

Manxi was worried: "What should I do? If I go to the public school again to spend money separately, I will definitely be discovered by the eldest lady."

She waved her hand and said, "It's okay. Don't tell anyone else yet. I have my own ideas about this matter."

Manxi nodded, picked up the empty basin and poured out the used bath water again and again.

After the girl finished her troubles, Feng Yuheng finally had some time alone.

Even though she has survival experience in the 21st century, she has to admit that the amount of information she received when she returned to Feng Mansion was too great.

The complicated interpersonal relationships and all kinds of so-called relatives in this house opened her eyes. Although she accepted Manxi as a girl, the word safety was still far away from her. There was no so-called open struggle in this place, except for the brainless Feng.

Except for Fendai, all of them are masters of Yin people.

She admits that she has never been afraid of the open sword, but she has not practiced using hidden arrows for many years.

It seemed that she had to practice hard, but there was something in her heart that she couldn't let go of. Why did Feng Jinyuan suddenly change her mind?

Looking out the window, it seems that in the dead of night, I must take a stroll inside the Feng Mansion.

The night trip to Feng Mansion was possible because of the package of old clothes Feng Fendai sent me.

Although most of the clothes a few years ago were too short, fortunately, in the past few years, I didn’t eat well in the mountain village and my nutrition couldn’t keep up, so my small body didn’t grow too much, so I could still wear it if I made do. It’s better than wearing it.

The sandpaper-like skirt was too strong, and she didn't want to put on the dirty clothes she wore during the day just after taking a shower.

Feng Yuheng decided to walk around the house tomorrow wearing her old clothes. She couldn't always let others come to her door to trouble her. She also had to take the initiative and cause some discomfort to those who had nothing to do.

At three o'clock, a thin figure drifted out of Liuyuan.

Relying on the memories from the day, I followed the original path back to the main hall of Peony Courtyard.

In Feng Mansion late at night, there was no hustle and bustle during the day. Except for the rustling sound caused by the cool wind in late summer blowing through the branches and leaves, everything was deserted.

Her target was Feng Jinyuan's study, but she was not familiar with Feng Mansion, and her calves were short. When she finally reached the study, she was already panting from exhaustion. Feng Yuheng immediately decided to exercise

The matter of physical fitness is on the agenda.

Feng Jinyuan's study room is located in the Pine Garden. The garden is truly worthy of its name, with a faint scent of pine everywhere. But after understanding Feng Jinyuan's personality, I feel that he is not worthy of Song. He is full of flowers.

The pine trees in the garden did not improve his style much, but the rosin was tainted with the desire for profit.

When Feng Yuheng entered the courtyard, she could faintly see that the candle lamps were still burning in the building surrounded by pines and cypresses, and there were shadows of people moving from time to time. She knew that she had made the right bet.

It had been predicted that Feng Jinyuan would not go to bed early tonight. What happened during the day was extremely sudden. The authenticity of the whispers needed to be further investigated. After all this time, it would not be too early to get the news.

I didn't dare to walk into the courtyard easily. The study room of a wealthy family could not be without any defense. It was definitely not a wise move to enter hastily.

The weather in late summer was changeable, and suddenly dark clouds covered the moon. Feng Yuheng took advantage of the darkness of night and hid behind a rockery.

Looking around, apart from the dwarf pines, there are also many tall cypresses.

She weighed her physical condition. It was obviously unrealistic to use external force to climb and shuttle like in her previous life. What's more, if Feng Yuheng was as alert as she was, how could she miss the pieces of clothes that were faintly visible between tall and tall people?
