After receiving recognition, Pu Yue softened her attitude, raised her chin and walked into Shen Ruoyan's house with proud steps.

Shen Ruoyan lived in an ordinary guest room with very simple decoration. Pu Yue glanced around the room, and finally landed on the bronze mirror and a pile of bottles and cans on the table.

Shen Ruoyan secretly said something bad.

I left in a hurry this morning and didn't have time to put away my disguise.

Just when Shen Ruoyan wanted to distract Pu Yue's attention, Pu Yue walked straight over.

Picking up a small jar on the table, Pu Yue teased disdainfully: "I didn't expect you, a country bumpkin, to know how to discipline yourself.

With so many things, why can't you dress yourself up more beautifully? "

As Pu Yue spoke, he re-examined Shen Ruoyan from top to bottom, and finally let out a contemptuous laugh.

Shen Ruoyan also smiled along with her.

He didn't mind Pu Yue's ridicule at all.

She knows very well what kind of person she is, and let outsiders evaluate her however they want.

"It's not until I met you, Miss, that I discovered that women can be so delicate." Shen Ruoyan said, taking the small jar from Pu Yue's hand very naturally, and gestured to her face twice. Explained, "I secretly imitated your appearance and wanted to make myself look better.

These things are all messed up by myself.

It seems that I still haven’t learned the essence of the eldest lady, making you laugh. "

Seeing Shen Ruoyan being so frank, Pu Yue became a little embarrassed.

Under Shen Ruoyan's admiring gaze, Pu Yue's cheeks flushed slightly and she said shyly: "Oh, I'm very generous.

If you want to learn from me, just ask me directly.

Why are you trying so secretly on your own? "

Shen Ruoyan just breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Pu Yue's attention was diverted by her.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Pu Yue turned around, picked up a small porcelain box on the table again, and asked, "By the way, what is in it?"

Shen Ruoyan had no time to stop her.

Pu Yue opened a small porcelain box very quickly.

After seeing what was inside clearly, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Hey, what's inside?"

By coincidence, what Pu Yue opened was the cream specially prepared by Shen Ruoyan to darken her skin tone.

Based on constant exploration, Shen Ruoyan ground the silver charcoal into fine powder, added patchouli, spikenard, beeswax and oil. After mixing evenly, she could apply it on her face to create a natural tan, making her look like she was born with it. Same.

Pu Yue glanced at the black paste in the porcelain box doubtfully, then glanced at Shen Ruoyan's dark face a few times, narrowed her eyes, and asked, "Could the things in this box be..."

Shen Ruoyan was afraid that she would catch the clue, so she quickly stopped Pu Yue's words, "This is a special plaster from my hometown."

"Plaster?" Pu Yue's tone was full of doubts, "What is this plaster used for?"

Shen Ruoyan's mind was spinning rapidly. If Pu Yue found out that she was deliberately acting ugly, she would not be able to tolerate him, and might kick Shen Ruoyan out in anger.

Then how could she continue to contact Lu Yan?

Now she must give Pu Yue a reasonable explanation.

"This plaster..." Shen Ruoyan forced out an awkward smile, "Of course it has a very important function..."

Pu Yue asked impatiently: "Why are you so hesitant to speak?

If I ask you what this plaster is for, just answer me directly. Why are you talking so much nonsense? "

Most people in the north have straightforward personalities, and Pu Yue is even more impatient.

After saying that, he scooped it out of the porcelain box with his fingers, smeared it on the back of his hand, and curiously leaned over to smell it.

Shen Ruoyan knew that if she couldn't explain clearly, it would definitely arouse Pu Yue's suspicion.

"This ointment..." Shen Ruoyan suddenly had an idea and said, "This is an anti-frostbite ointment from my hometown.

The elders in the family knew that I was coming to the north this time, so they personally prepared this plaster for me and told me to apply it on my face every day to prevent frostbite from the cold north wind. "

After hearing this, Pu Yue made sure not to put down the porcelain box immediately, but still asked happily: "What are the ingredients in this ointment?

Will there be any harm if applied to the skin? "

Shen Ruoyan had no choice but to pick out a few and said, "These are ordinary items and will not cause any harm to the skin.

only……"

Shen Ruoyan thought for a moment before continuing: "After applying this plaster, your original skin will look darker."

Pu Yue clasped her fingers, held the porcelain box firmly in her palm, and said, "That's good!

I want this plaster. "

"If you are worried about frostbitten skin, one of the goods I sold to the Lord City Lord last time was a better antifreeze cream.

That facial balm contains natural flower oil, which not only has a floral fragrance, but also has a nourishing effect on the skin. "Shen Ruoyan pointed to the plaster in Pu Yue's hand, "It's hundreds of times better than this kind of plaster. "

"Hmph, let me just say you are a bumpkin!" Pu Yue put the porcelain bottle directly into her pocket and folded her hands on her chest, "Miss, I am in a good mood today, let me tell you something nice.

As the saying goes, things are rare.

The northern border has wind and snow all year round, and there are few sunny days. People here generally have fair skin.

Don't be so sentimental. I guess Master Lewu looked at you differently just now because of your dark face. "

Pu Yue pointed to her face triumphantly again, "I'm much prettier than you. As long as you make me darker, I will definitely be liked by Lord Lewu."

After saying that, Pu Yue ran out happily without waiting for Shen Ruoyan to speak.

After a jar of facial ointment was inexplicably taken away, Shen Ruoyan shook her head helplessly.

However, what matters most to her right now is:

Find a way to contact Lu Yan again!

When he thought that Lu Yan clearly recognized him, he still pretended not to know him.

Shen Ruoyan was so angry that she bit her teeth secretly.

She wanted to see how long Lu Yan could keep pretending?

That night, Shen Ruoyan bribed the guard with a few taels of silver, and quietly slipped into the residence Pu Tuo had arranged for Lu Yan with a bowl of hot porridge she cooked.

Compared with Shen Ruoyan's single room, Lu Yan's residence was obviously much more luxurious. At a glance, there was no end in sight.

Seeing that there was no one in the hall, Shen Ruoyan put the food box she brought on the table and walked towards the room inside.

The surroundings were very quiet. Shen Ruoyan looked at several rooms and found that they were all empty, not even a single person could be seen.

strange!

She specifically asked others, and they said Lu Yan didn't leave after he came in.

Why can't I find anyone else?

Shen Ruoyan thought about it again and again, and pushed open a heavy wooden door that led to nowhere.

A stream of water vapor mixed with the fragrance came to my face.
