Chapter 166 Buddha's Ear

Mrs. Du Ye smiled and said, "Last time I said that your sister Yu would surpass her father, and it turned out to be true. Shulan, you are in for a treat."

"Ha..." Old Madam Jiang smiled happily, "If my sister Yu cooks in the future and makes something delicious, I'll send someone to deliver it to you."

"And me!" Mrs. Mu was fed up when she saw that she was left behind.

"Of course, how can we miss you."

Only then did Du Ye turn her head and look at Madam Mu carefully. "Yuqing, you are so radiant! This girl Yu is such a great doctor. If the princess hadn't sent a message, I wouldn't have known that this girl knew medicine. Shulan kept it a secret."

"Sister Ye, I'm not the one hiding this from you. Youya and the others are the ones hiding this from me. If you hadn't come to the villa, I would have been in the dark. I always thought Meng Guangde was treating me because my eye disease would be cured within three months, but it turns out that Sister Yu changed the eye mask prescription the day she returned to Beijing. Sister Yu gave me acupuncture every day while I was still asleep. Tell me, I slept really soundly."

"Your sister Yu wants to give you a surprise. Where is she? Bring her here so I can see her. I think she must look more like Wanwan."

"Sister Ye," said Madam Mu, "Let's see her at lunch. The child looks a little weak and was exhausted from cooking yesterday. Let her get some more sleep. As for her appearance, we haven't seen Miss Yu's true face yet. It will take some time before we can see it."

Du Ye was puzzled, "Why is this?"

Feng Yingying said, "The three of them encountered bandits on their way to Beijing, and Sister Yu accidentally injured her face... but it won't leave a scar and will heal well. She'll be able to take off her mask soon."

Upon hearing this, Du Ye glanced at Nanny Gui. No wonder she thought her words were a bit strange that day.

It turned out that no one in the entire Jiang family had ever seen Song Yu's true face.

"Will it really not leave scars? That's my face."

"Sister Yu knows medicine and loves beauty, so she definitely won't leave herself with scars."

"Cousin, are you awake?"

Song Yu subconsciously touched his face when he heard this.

"Don't worry, young lady. I just applied medicine to you."

Song Yu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately Bai Lan woke up early.

Song Yu looked at Jiang Shiyun, who was holding her little face and looking at her, and asked, "When did you come?"

"I've been here for a quarter of an hour, waiting for you to have lunch together."

"Is Madam Du here?"

"Here you are. Madam Du is also a kind and amiable old lady. After tasting the cakes you made, she praised you highly and is anxious to meet you. She will definitely like you when she meets you. Oh, by the way, she has five grandchildren, three from the first wife and two from the second wife. The third son of the first wife, Du Zhixu, is very handsome. His appearance is only slightly inferior to that of Brother Mu. He is as gentle as jade, has a good temper and personality, is good at business, and is only seventeen years old."

Song Yu was very surprised. Why did Cousin Yun mention the third son of the Du family for no reason?

"Do you like the third son of the Du family?"

"Yeah, I like the third brother of the Du family. He dotes on his sisters. It is said that every time he comes back from outside, he brings beautiful and novel things, and he gives them all to his sister Du Zhihuan. Sometimes when he sees me, I can also get a small item or two. The jade fan in my room was given by him."

Song Yu said as she changed her clothes in front of the mirror, "You wouldn't mention your boyfriend in front of me for no reason, would you?"

Jiang Shiyun grinned, "It is said that Madam Du is most worried about his marriage. He hasn't got a husband yet. You go meet Madam Du later and behave well. If Madam Du likes you, and Grandmother is here too, she might be able to arrange a marriage for you."

Bai Lan:!!!

Song Yu was startled, "Then I won't go over for dinner."

She is not even fourteen yet, and she has to be eighteen to get married!

Even if she wanted to get married, her father wouldn't let her get married unless she was old enough!

"No, everyone is waiting for you." Jiang Shiyun was anxious and quickly walked over to pull Song Yu. "Mrs. Du didn't mean that. It was my own idea."

"Stop imagining this! You just said that all the young masters of the Du family favor Du Zhihuan. So you and Cousin Meng don't like her?"

"right!"

"That's it. I can't marry into the Du family even if I want to. By the way, when you're planning a marriage, if you have a younger sister and her brother spoils her without a bottom line, you can't marry her. Otherwise, if you have a conflict with your sister-in-law, your husband won't help you and will make you suffer."

Jiang Shiyun was surprised, "How did you know?"

"I've seen a lot of things like this in the countryside. You can be right by listening to me. Let's go and find the princess and have dinner together at Ruxi Palace."

Old Madam Du looked towards the entrance of Ruxi Palace from time to time.

She didn't know why she was so curious about Song Yu, whom she had never met before?

Upon seeing this, Madam Mu quickly asked Nanny Xiu to go and take a look.

When Nanny Xiu walked out of the hall, she saw Mu Chuqing, Song Yu, and Jiang Shiyun coming towards her.

"Madam, Miss Song and the others are here."

Du Ye quickly turned her head to look at the door again. A moment later, Mu Chuqing walked in first.

Du Ye looked directly at Song Yu behind her.

She was wearing a beautiful peony mask, with a cool and noble temperament, a full forehead, a square chin, and fair skin. Even though she was wearing a mask, one could tell that she had a good-looking face.

Seeing this, Mrs. Du's lips unconsciously curled up slightly. When Song Yu approached and her eyes fell on Song Yu's ears, she was stunned.

This girl actually had a pair of Buddha ears like Henian's.

"Grandma." Mu Chuqing bowed to Old Madam Mu and pulled Song Yu in front of Du Ye.

"Madam Du, this is Miss Song, Song Yu."

Song Yu hurriedly bowed and saluted, "Song Yu greets Madam Du."

"Miss Song, there's no need to be so polite."

Du Ye hurriedly stepped forward and held her elbows to help her up, her eyes quickly glancing at Song Yu's right earlobe.

Song Yu stood up and looked up at Du Ye.

What Cousin Yun said was indeed true. Old Madam Du was also a kind and amiable old lady.

She looks a bit more amiable than my grandmother, Mrs. Mu.

Looking closely at Song Yu, Mrs. Du saw at a glance that there was ointment on Song Yu's right eye socket, and she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.

The child injured his face at that time and it must have been very painful. He really suffered.

"Miss Song, I've tasted the cakes you made and they're delicious. I didn't expect you to be so talented in cooking. You're truly a young talent."

Song Yu said, "I'm very happy that Madam Du likes me. When I cook next time, I'll make a few extra portions and send them to you and Madam Mu."

"Ha...Okay, okay, I'm waiting. You three sisters, please sit down and have your meal."

Mu Chuqing became familiar with Song Yu and pulled Jiang Shiyun to sit with Song Yu for dinner.

While eating, Mrs. Du would look up at Song Yu from time to time.

This child has good eating manners, which always gives her a sense of familiarity.

Feng Yingying frowned slightly when she saw this. Mrs. Du looking at Sister Yu like that would make Sister Yu feel pressured.

I have a hunch that it’s not a good thing for Sister Yu to be targeted by Old Madam Du.

Song Yu and the other two were unwilling to stay with their elders, so they quickly finished their meal and left Ruxi Palace.

The three elderly sisters had no energy to chat together after lunch, so they were escorted back to their respective rooms by their respective people to take a nap.

Before Madam Jiang went to sleep, Feng Yingying said, "Madam Du seems to have a crush on our sister Yu. If she talks to you about getting engaged, you must not agree."

Madam Jiang said, "Don't worry. This matter depends on Sister Yu's wishes. Ming En and Wan Wan are the ones who make the decision. I, a blind old woman, will not get involved."

"Also, Madam Mu wants to tell you about this, but you can't agree to it. She is desperate and wants to send a living woman to Prince Mu's room."

Madam Jiang said, "She won't do anything rash. Sister Yu is her savior. The princess won't allow Madam Mu to be so foolish... To be honest, Prince Mu's current situation is quite worrying. Okay, let's stop talking. You should go take a nap too."

Du Ye lay on the bed with her eyes closed, her mind full of Song Yu.

After lying there for half an hour without falling asleep, he asked, "Old lady, what's wrong with you?"

"Madam Qiao, did you see the Song family girl's Buddha ears just now?"

"I saw her. She looks exactly like the old Marquis and the Marquis. If you didn't know her, you would think she was the daughter of our Marquis' Mansion."

Du Ye said, "Indeed, I just saw that the Song family girl also has a black spot on her right earlobe. Can people who are not related by blood have the same ear?"

"Yes, there are only a few styles of ears. The abbot of Huguo Temple has Buddha ears, but they are not as good-looking as our Marquis's. They are a little bit inferior. Miss Song's earlobes are thicker and whiter than our Marquis's."

Upon hearing this, Du Yeshi remembered that her son's complexion seemed a little yellow. "Get up early tomorrow to fetch some spring water. Get a few buckets and bring it back for Henian to wash his face. If he doesn't take care of his skin, it will turn dark and ugly... Henian won't be as fair and lovely as he was when he was young when he's old."

"Before the Marquis went to the border, his skin seemed to be as white as Miss Song's."

When Mrs. Du heard this, she remembered that Du Zhihuan was not very white when she was in swaddling clothes, and her skin became whiter when she grew up. Henian was white and tender when he was born.

Alas, Huanhuan takes after her mother.

"By the way, old lady, you often have chest tightness and dizziness, and you can't find out what's wrong. Why don't you ask Miss Song to take a look at you?"
