Zhong Yi looked at Qing'er's pale face and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"
Qing'er sniffed and said, "I'm afraid of sleeping alone."
"Come in quickly." After Zhong Yi let her in, he closed the door and asked, "Why are you scared?"
"My uncle just told a ghost story." Qing'er hugged her quilt and looked at Zhong Yi and said, "I'm scared to sleep alone in the room."
Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Then let's squeeze in and sleep together tonight."
Tang Yaoyao sat up from the bed, looked at her, and said disdainfully: "Xiao Qing'er, you are still as timid as before."
Qing'er hugged the quilt and squeezed to the foot of the bed. She felt a little calmer and whispered: "The ghost stories told by my uncle are very scary..."
Tang Yaoyao curled her lips and said, "I haven't heard any ghost stories. Please tell me and listen."
With two people accompanying her, Qing'er was no longer afraid. She thought about it and said: "Once upon a time, in a wealthy family, there was a little maid named Zhen'er. She was very good at martial arts and had very long legs.
It’s also very beautiful…”
"Later, Zhen'er turned into a ghost. Every night at midnight, she would crawl out of the mirror and scratch the faces of those beautiful women with hairpins..."
Tang Yaoyao glanced at the direction of the mirror in the room, curled her lips, and said, "Isn't this scary? The mirror is so small, how could she crawl out of it? And isn't she very skilled in martial arts? How could she..."
"I'm going to have a drink of water." She got off the bed, walked to the table and drank some water. When she came back, she placed the mirror on the dressing table on the table.
…
The ghost stories in this world are simply too outdated. Some of them are even mysterious stories. Add monsters and the like, and two or three sentences can form a ghost story...
This kind of story can't create a scary atmosphere, and it doesn't feel like it at all.
So after telling Qing'er an adapted version of "Midnight Princess" last night, Tangning had a whim and reviewed "The Ring" and "The Grudge" again.
This caused him to stay awake for most of the night, and when he woke up in the morning, he had two dark circles under his eyes.
When I was having breakfast, I realized that he was not the only one with dark circles under his eyes.
Zhong Mingli went out early in the morning. Chen Yuxian looked at the three people at the dinner table who were listless and haggard with big dark circles under their eyes. Then he looked at Qing'er standing behind Zhong Yi and couldn't help but ask: "You four
What did you do last night?"
Tang Yaoyao glanced at Tang Ning with a cannibalistic look, then turned to look at Chen Yuxian and said, "I talked to Xiao Yi very late last night and didn't get a good rest..."
Chen Yuxian asked: "What about Qing'er?"
Qing'er immediately replied: "Last night, I slept with the young lady and sister Yaoyao."
Chen Yuxian looked at Tang Ning again and asked, "Where is Ning'er?"
"I didn't sleep with them." Tangning hurriedly explained: "I didn't sleep well either."
Chen Yuxian looked at Zhong Yi and Tang Yaoyao and said, "You have to go to bed early and get up early on weekdays. Look at how you look now. If you continue like this, you will soon have wrinkles and dark spots under your eyes..."
Tang Ning took a bite of fried cucumber with eggs and said casually: "Dark circles can be eliminated with hard-boiled eggs. It will take about seven days to see results. It can replenish skin, whiten and fight wrinkles, just use cucumber..."
brush!
Four pairs of eyes looked at him.
Zhong Yi, Tang Yaoyao, Qing'er, that's all... Even his mother-in-law looked at him with such fiery eyes, Tangning couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart.
The eyes were lethal. With eyes locked from four directions, Tang Ning couldn't hold on for long.
He put down his chopsticks and stood up: "I, I'm full, and there's something else I need to do..."
"stop!"
Tangning, who had never seen her mother-in-law speak like this before, couldn't help but tremble.
Chen Yuxian also realized that his voice just now was a bit loud, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He looked at Tang Ning and said softly: "If there is anything you need to do, don't be in a hurry. Ning'er, please sit down first..."
She looked at Tang Ning and asked casually, "Ning'er just said, what happened to the cucumbers and eggs..."
Using hard-boiled eggs to eliminate dark circles, speed up blood circulation, and help skin metabolism is a common sense that is almost universally known in later generations.
As for green melon, it is also known as cucumber.
This is a vegetable that can be both eaten and used.
When Tang Ning was in college, there was a female classmate who would go to the supermarket to buy fresh cucumbers every night...
Cut into thin slices and apply on face.
Although he has never seen it with his own eyes, he has seen it countless times in movies and TV series.
They didn't expect that "whitening, anti-wrinkle, hydrating and beautifying" would be so attractive to them. Tangning thought about it and said, "I forgot to read it in that book before..."
This is an excuse he has tried every time, and he can use this excuse for the rest of his life. Anyway, it is Tang Yaoyao's fault.
He thought for a while and then said: "It seems to be a medical book. The book says that eating more fresh and tender cucumbers can keep you in shape. Cut the fresh and tender cucumbers into thin slices and stick them on your face to replenish water and eliminate the effects of diarrhea.
Wrinkles make the skin firmer...that's all I remember."
Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "Why did you read all kinds of books before?"
Tang Ning said: "Walking around the world, I have many skills that are not overwhelming, and I have a wide range of interests. Maybe I will use them at some point..."
No one asked him any more questions, but the plate of cucumber and scrambled eggs that had barely been touched just now was completely eaten in a short period of time.
Chen Yuxian seemed very happy and served Tang Ning several dishes. Zhong Yi lowered her head, wondering what she was thinking.
Tang Yaoyao glanced at him and made a mental note.
Although many of what he said and did were incredible, so far, he has been right.
He said to drink more hot water.
He said the hot water bladder could relieve the pain.
He can also let the white paper write on its own.
He dared to put his hand into the "oil pan".
So he should also be able to make himself more beautiful.
Although she is pretty enough, who doesn't want to become more beautiful?
It's just that he is a grown man, but he actually knows how to relieve the pain, how to whiten and nourish the face, eliminate wrinkles, and he can also write such lingering poems about boudoir...
Miss Xiaoru and his childhood sweetheart have been together for so many years, and they have lived under the same roof for so many years, but it seems that nothing has happened between the two of them.
He and Xiaoyi have been married for two months, and he has always kept a distance from her, who is both talented and beautiful, without any overstep.
He still can't get up in the morning...
"Huh……"
As if she had thought of something, Tang Yaoyao looked at Tang Ning with a strange expression on her face, and she couldn't help but shudder.
Tang Ning didn't know why, but the way Tang Yaojing looked at him made his skin crawl.
He was going to Sujia Village in a while, so he finished eating and left. When he walked to the yard, a maid happened to come over and said, "Uncle, there is a girl outside looking for you..."
"Girl..." Tangning's heart trembled. Could it be another love debt this guy owed outside?
At the door of Zhong Mansion, the concierge looked at the woman he had seen yesterday and said, "Girl, don't stand outside. Go inside and wait."
Su Ru smiled and shook her head and said, "No need, I'll wait here for him to come out."
The porter shook his head and stepped back.
Su Shan stood not far behind him, looked up at the wealthy family in front of him, and murmured: "Is the magistrate's house so big..."
…
As soon as Tangning walked out of the Zhong Mansion, she saw Su Ru standing aside.
"Why are you here..." Tangning walked over quickly, looked at the man again, frowned and said, "Uncle Third, Xiaoru needs to recuperate, why did you let her come..."
"I..." The man stretched his neck, opened his mouth, and then retracted.
"Brother Xiao Ning, don't blame Third Uncle. I asked him to accompany me here." Su Ru came over, took out a small purse from her sleeve, put it into his hand, and said, "You are in the city.
It’s not like in the village. If you take the money, you can put it to good use..."
Tang Ning looked at her, sighed for a long time, and said softly: "You came here early in the morning just to give me money?"
"I'm here to deliver cloth to the cloth shop. They gave me another dollar increase today." Su Ru smiled and said, "Go back quickly. I'll see you again in a few days..."
Tangning put the purse into her hand again and said, "You're here now, so don't go back."
He looked at Peng Chen, who was walking towards him, and asked, "Is it done?"
Peng Chen handed over some pieces of paper and said, "All the places are here, you just need to choose one."
Peng Chen was very fast. What was written on it was all the information about nearby houses, such as size, location, etc. Tangning looked at it, picked one with a suitable location, and said, "That's it."
