Stunning at Every Step: Sheng Chong Ghost Princess

Chapter 164
After speaking, Mingyue left Rongqing hall, walked back to the academy along Changchun Garden, and couldn't help yawning.When I returned to my room in the academy, I saw that the lights were on again, and Chu Ziyan sat in her room waiting for a long time.

Chu Ziyan asked, "Where did you go?"

"Go...to take a shower."

Knowing that she went to Rongqing Hall, he didn't expose her, but just put down the book in his hand and said to her: "Come here."

She walked over and sat down on the other side of the low table on the couch: "Why aren't you asleep?"

Chu Ziyan picked up a porcelain bottle on the table and opened it. There was a green ointment inside. He dipped a cotton swab in the ointment to signal her.

Mingyue moved her face closer.

Chu Ziyan's cotton swab touched her mouth and stopped: "Why are you smirking, how do you apply the medicine like this?"

Mingyue closed her mouth.

Chu Ziyan supported her chin with one hand, and lightly applied medicine with the other hand. She would be considerate of girls, but she didn't care about her own injuries.

"Already ugly, it's even uglier after being beaten like this."

"How ugly am I?" she protested.

Chu Ziyan could only take the cotton swab away, and reapply it after she finished protesting. Seeing his careful appearance, she felt happy again.

There was a smile on her brows, and his heart softened.

Mingyue really hopes that the days to come will be so peaceful.

In the next few days, people and animals were indeed safe and peaceful.

The new year is coming in a few days, and Jinling is beginning to smell like a new year.

The 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, commonly known as Xiaonian, is the day when the Stove Lord goes to heaven.

On the twelfth and fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, Tanchen swept the house, and every household in the entire Yanwang Mansion and even the entire Jinling was cleaned.

On the 55th day of the twelfth lunar month, grind the mill to make tofu.

On the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, pigs are slaughtered to cut the meat of the new year.

On the 27th of the twelfth lunar month, it’s time to slaughter the New Year’s chicken, go to the big market, and do New Year’s goods.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, decals are made of cakes and steamed buns.In some homes, peach blossoms are hung in front of the house and behind the house, and some are pasted with red paper to avoid evil spirits.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, I went to the grave to ask the ancestors to make a big offering. On this day, Chu Ziyan followed the Emperor Chu to the ancestor's imperial tomb to worship.

Although this custom has been heard in modern times, it has not been implemented as thoroughly as the people here.

And in this short period of time, Ye Shi also repaired the house almost, and even put on window grilles and hung red lanterns in a decent way.Of course, this kind of quick repair has to be fueled by silver.

Fortunately, this house has changed from the gloomy and desolate place before to a real mansion.

Ji Zexi was still living in Jinling, and Fu Ruoshui knew that Ji Zexi beat Mingyue that night, and scolded him the next day and wanted to drive him away.Fortunately, Mingyue and Yeshi dissuaded her, but she used this as an excuse and refused to go back to Yueshan no matter what.

If she didn't go back, Ji Zexi certainly wouldn't go back either, so this "night house" had another resident.

In fact, the Yueshan faction already had a small stronghold in Jinling, and they knew Fu Ruoshui's whereabouts well, otherwise, how could Ji Zexi have found the address of their new house in one go?

As a result, quite a few people came to Yezhai to escape, and the courtyard seemed to be gaining popularity, and today there were disciples from the Yueshan sect, but Yeshi left Ji Zexi and the others to sneak out to play with Mingyue.Fu Ruoshui felt awkward being with his senior brother and ran out.

On the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, the streets are bustling with people coming and going in the Jinling Long Street, the southeast and northwest markets, and the business of the cloth shop is also very good. Adults and children will buy a new set of clothes for the New Year.

The three of Mingyue passed by a stall selling rouge and gouache, Fu Ruoshui stopped immediately, and Mingyue followed her to pick things up.

The eyes of the two were quite the same, and they took a bead flower at the same time, the bead flower was in the shape of a white flower and a white butterfly.

"Mingyue wants to buy this?" Seeing that Mingyue liked it quite a bit, Fu Ruoshui was somewhat different, "Could it be... Which girl are you going to give it to?"

In fact, she thinks it looks pretty, but she can't wear it now: "Well, it's really for a girl."

Fu Ruoshui's face changed, and his chest felt tight: "You, do you really have someone you like?"

She did have someone she liked, and Mingyue looked at her with a smile and silent acquiescence, which made Fu Ruoshui feel even more uncomfortable.

"Could it be that you like...Miss Ni Xiang?"

The most beautiful woman around Mingyue is Ni Xiang, and Mingyue treated Ni Xiang very well before.

Mingyue didn't answer.

The vendor put the bead flower hairpin in a box and handed it over, saying: "Master, you have a good eye. This hairpin is the best gift for the girl you like. The bead flower hairpin on it is the style that the empress in the palace likes."

"Yeah, I think it looks good too." Mingyue gave the money and took the box.

Fu Ruoshui's expression turned extremely ugly: "Zhao Mingyue, you..."

"Okay, it's just a hairpin. Seeing how anxious you are, here, I'll give it to you." Mingyue generously handed the box to her, "New Year's gift."

Fu Ruoshui's heart that fell to the bottom of the valley quickly flew to the clouds, very flattered: "You, the person you want to send is me?"

"Who else can I give it to if I don't give it to you?" And is she going to take her love and give it to someone else?
Fu Ruoshui's mood went up and down because of Mingyue's agitation: "Zhao Mingyue, you've also learned how to bully people at Night Ten Club!"

How could she bully her?
Mingyue laughed and said, "I'm just kidding you, or I'll buy you another rouge? Which one do you like?"

Ye Shi picked out the reddest one: "This one, it's red enough, what a woman."

"Tacky!" Fu Ruoshui didn't like this bright red thing.

Mingyue glanced at the rouges of various colors and said, and opened a shell-shaped rouge box: "This peach red is good, it matches Ruoshui's complexion very well."

She put it in front of her nose and smelled it again: "And the smell is very weak, take a look, do you like it?"

Fu Ruoshui was surprised that Mingyue had the same preferences as hers: "How do you know I like this color?"

"Your skin is fair and your lip color is good. It will look good if you use a lighter color to complement the color."

Fu Ruoshui blushed from the praise, and muttered softly, "You still look at the color of my lips all day..."

"what?"

"It's nothing!" Fu Ruoshui's face was redder than rouge, but seeing Mingyue's proficiency in picking up girls' things, she couldn't help asking, "Do you often buy things for girls?"

"Not very often." She doesn't have many friends, but shopping is frequent.

Women's shopping is not about whether they need it or not, but about whether they have it or not. They want to try everything they don't have, and they may not always use it when they buy it. She just bought a bunch of useless things.

Look at Fu Ruoshui's contemptuous eyes.

Mingyue smiled: "I only bought it for you, does it count as often?"

"Cheating, I don't know how many girls have been cheated at such a young age."

"The conscience of heaven and earth!" Zhao Mingyue picked out the rouge, and then chose a face powder and asked Fu Ruoshui, "Does this smell good?" She fanned Fu Ruoshui with her hand.

Fu Ruoshui shook her head: "I don't really like it."

"Then change to an orchid-scented one." She changed another one and smelled it again, "How is it?"

"It smells good."

Mingyue tapped on her wrist, but Fu Ruoshui didn't know why, so Mingyue said: "It's good if there is no smell of this powder, so rub it on the pulsating place, such as the wrist or under the ear, and the effect will be enough."

"How do you know so many things that even the girl's family doesn't know?"

"Because... I used to have a sister."

Ye Shi leaned over: "How long did it take you to pick out the rouge and gouache? Zhao Mingyue, I admire your patience in shopping with women."

"Don't you spend more time with women?" Mingyue emphasized on the word "to accompany", which made Ye Shi unable to refute and laughed, and then said brazenly: "That's because I last!"

It's really... There is no way to compare with him.

Not enough Mingyue saw a familiar person at this time, Duan Hong, the servant of Zhongshu, came out of the clothing store with a young woman who was about 20 years old.

Judging by his caring appearance, it must be his newlywed wife. Although they don't hold hands with each other on the street, the two look at each other, and it can be seen that it is the honeymoon period.

That little lady was also very good-looking, at least ten years younger than Duan Hong.

"Husband, I want to go to the piano store to have a look at the piano, okay?"

"Okay, it's up to you."

The two of them entered the piano shop.

Ye Shi also looked at the piano store, but his eyes were different from Mingyue's. He saw a woman in a red dress and a veil, and said with bright eyes:
"Oh, Qiongzhi."

where?

Mingyue also immediately searched for beauties, big and small, on the street.

Ye Shi said: "The woman in red who entered the piano store."

I can only see the graceful back.

Ye Shi: "It's a rare opportunity to meet her."

"Ye Shi, you go alone..." Before Fu Ruoshui finished protesting, Ye Shi had already pulled Mingyue towards Qin.

In fact, I can't see anything special, and I can't see any devil figure if I wear thick clothes in winter.Her face was covered with a veil, only a pair of red phoenix eyes were exposed, but her eyebrows were full of charm, especially there was a tear mole under the corner of her eye, which made her charming eyes a bit more like an actor's desolation.

She was picking out the violin, and her fingers were so beautiful that it made people's eyes shine.

Avalokitesvara palmistry, people are not fat, but the fingers are round and slender, probably this is an example of catkins.

Fingers like shaving onion root caressed the guqin placed in the piano store, adjusted the tuning column, and then moved it.Mingyue couldn't hear any big difference, but the owner of the piano shop suddenly turned around to look at her, and then walked over with a smile.

"Young lady is an expert. This is the palace qin, and the range of playing is wide and heavy."

Qiongzhi didn't say anything, and switched from the Weiqin to the same Yangqin.

This piano shop is very big, and she likes every instrument here, but she is not very satisfied with every instrument.The boss saw that she was an expert and kindly recommended her.

Beside Qiongzhi, a girl wearing a pink jacket and skirt, about sixteen or seventeen years old, said: "Boss, your tail piano sound is not precise enough, and the sound of the dulcimer is not as bright as our lady expected. This guzheng... oh."

"My little girl, our piano store is the largest in Jinling. If you can't pick out something you're satisfied with, there won't be any better ones."

"Sigh." The little girl shook her head again, "If you want to play the violin with ease and ease, what our lady is looking for is not the best violin, but the most convenient violin."

"That girl is called Haitang." Ye Shi said.
