Chapter 653: Reveal Your True Face
Xiao Nuobao couldn't help but feel excited. Just for this rare battle, the workshop deserved to make a fortune!
At this time, Feng Miao saw his sister and ran over.
"Hey, what do you think? These are the rules that Fifth Brother came up with when he couldn't sleep at night. They are quite impressive, aren't they?" He put his hands on his hips and waited for compliments.
Xiao Nuobao poked under his eyes and realized that Fifth Brother really had dark circles under his eyes.
"Yeah, Fifth Brother is amazing! If you don't sleep every day in the future, the good ideas you come up with will definitely make our workshop rich enough to rival a country!" Xiao Nuobao has a sweet mouth and shouted around Feng Miao with a smile.
Feng Miao loves to listen to his sister coaxing him. He couldn't help but blush and feel very happy in his heart.
At this time, hearing this familiar and crisp voice, Dawen and Xiaowu thought they had misheard and hurriedly poked their heads out of the house.
When their eyes fell on the little fat girl's face and confirmed that it was really the princess, their eyes burst into strong joy!
"Princess, can you get up? What time does it happen? I'll get you a chair!" Dawen hurried out, his voice full of excitement.
Xiaowu ran over and knelt on the ground, "Princess, this is great, otherwise we heard that you were sick, we were really afraid that we would never see you again!"
After saying that, he was extremely nervous again, and hurriedly welcomed Xiao Nuobao into the house to sit, and looked for a palm-leaf fan everywhere, fearing that the princess would be tired and hot.
Seeing that the two brothers were about to cry, Xiao Nuobao was moved, and based on trust, he told them the truth.
"What? So you have never been sick?" Xiao Wu was so happy that he almost jumped three feet high.
"Now we have nothing to worry about! The village chief must know about it. Why didn't they tell us earlier? I was worried for several nights and even went to the temple to ask for three or four amulets for you."
As he said that, Xiao Wu reached into his pocket and really took out a handful of small embroidered bags with tassels and amulet paper inside.
Xiao Nuobao looked down and her eyes suddenly curved into crescents.
Although the amulet was not useful, she received the kindness and felt very warm in her heart!
The village chief and Old Li had just come over from the field. Hearing the sound, the two old men sighed and looked like "old ginger is still spicy".
"If I had told you earlier, who knows if you youngsters would be unable to keep it to yourself and tell others the secret of my sweetheart." Old Li snorted.
Anyway, for the sake of sweetheart, he can't make any mistakes. This is the stability of the old man!
The village chief did not hide it. He grabbed the smoke pot and banged it on Xiao Wu's head twice. "I have to make you worry and go through more things. It's all a test of your character."
Seeing that Xiao Wu was about to cry with his head covered, Xiao Nuobao smiled and realized that the village chief and his grandfather had unknowingly treated the people from Beihe County as their original fellow villagers. There was warmth in the brutal teachings.
She was very happy in her heart.
This is how life should be lived.
The atmosphere in Xiaoliu Village was getting closer to that of Daliu Village. The warmth and happiness she had in the village before was like a warm breeze, wrapping her up again...
Xiao Nuobao was holding the amulet with a giggle. She remembered something serious and grabbed Dawen and Xiaowu to tell them.
"Right, let's get back to the point."
"From now on, our workshop will be our bread and butter, so we can't let outsiders learn from it. We have to keep it a secret and be on guard against outsiders approaching. Don't let this job be taken away, okay?" Xiao Pangya said, carefully lowering her voice.
It was as if if she wasn't careful, these words would be blown away by the wind and heard by outsiders.
When Dawen and Xiaowu heard this, they quickly agreed with a serious look on their faces.
"Don't worry, Princess. Madam Xiao has given me the job of patrolling. I will patrol once every hour and I will definitely not miss a day." Da Wen responded calmly. "
My brother is in charge of patrolling, and I am in charge of guarding. With the two of us here, let alone a living person, even if it is a fly that wants to enter the manor, I will have to rip off its wings!" Xiao Wu also patted his chest.
Xiao Nuobao felt relieved after hearing this. After pulling the hook with each of them, she went to the workshop to continue strolling.
In the next few days, she did the same thing, and from time to time she disguised herself as a "little scarecrow" and stayed in the manor for a while.
Although the weather was hot, the people in Xiaoliu Village were immersed in the joy of working and earning money. Even the sweat from the heat brought with it the sweetness of life.
Cuicui now had an extra job.
She helped in the water shop during the day, and in the evening she had to sort out the number and names of people who went to work every day in the workshop so that they could pay their wages.
Although she was busier than before, she could write and calculate now, and her wallet was fatter than before. She was more confident in walking in the capital, and she was no longer a young girl who had just arrived in Beijing.
Widow Gu was relieved now, and began to wait for Ali to come back so that she could go back to Daliu Village.
As for Doctor Wu, he was lucky. Now countless eyes were staring at the Jiang family. In order to make the trick real, he had to take his medicine box to the Jiang Mansion every day and eat until his mouth was picky.
Soon, three days passed, and now everyone in the capital knew what happened to Xiao Nuobao.
And who pushed the princess and what the purpose was, it became the most frequently discussed topic on the streets.
Seeing that the atmosphere was almost tense, Xiao Nuobao touched her fleshy little chin and finally decided to close the net!
So, she called the whole family and Doctor Wu into the house together, and each of them gave a few instructions and told her plan.
After listening to Xiao Pangya's words, the eyes of the Jiang family were brighter than the sun, and they couldn't wait to expose all the ugly things done by the two Li family in public!
However, before taking action, Xiao Nuobao thought of another person.
"Mother," she said crisply, "Go to the storehouse and pick out a set of expensive jewelry. Have Madam Zheng send it to Madam Pei, saying that it's to thank her for visiting us a few days ago."
"And Master Wu, if you have any good tonic medicine, give some to her as well. We might be able to use it on the day of the banquet!" Little Nuobao narrowed his eyes.
Mrs. Feng and Doctor Wu agreed in unison.
It's not difficult.
Soon, a set of red coral and gold-inlaid bracelets, hairpins, and two bags of the best donkey-hide gelatin and ginseng paste were sent to the Pei Mansion...
...
After doing all this.
Following the idea of her daughter, Feng suddenly sent out invitations to invite all officials and their families in the capital to the banquet, even those who they had no contact with on weekdays!
As for the reason, the Jiang family only told outsiders that the princess had always been a bad person, and according to the customs of the north, they wanted to hold a lively banquet, not for anything else, just to boost the mood.
But in fact, of course, they wanted to stage a big show, so they deliberately invited these spectators to witness how much the Jiang family had been calculated! When
everyone received the invitation, they thought that the Jiang family had no choice, and they couldn't help but feel pity and worry about the little princess.
So all those who had no official business agreed to bring their families with them.
As for the Li Mansion.
Li Qingping and Aunt Wang were even more delighted!
"I was thinking of asking the old man to take you to the Jiang family to meet them under the pretext of visiting the princess. I didn't expect the opportunity to come now. The Jiang family is holding a banquet, and it's only natural that we can go." After reading the invitation, Aunt Wang was so happy that her face was full of fat.
Li Qingping was also very happy, and hurried back to the house to pick out the new clothes she had made this year.
But these two people had no idea that the more they laughed now, the more miserable they would cry later...
Li Hutu was originally skeptical and felt that it was inconvenient for him to take his daughter to the Jiang family because of the previous incident.
But the invitation was delivered by Fenghu himself, and Fenghu was smiling at the time, and he clearly asked him to bring more family members to make it lively.
So Li Hutu hesitated and still brought his daughter and concubines.
Soon, the day of the banquet arrived!
In the morning, just after the hour of Chen, people came to the Jiang Mansion one after another, showing how much attention everyone paid.
Li Qingping was so excited that she only slept for half the night. When it was light, she got up quickly to dress up and was among the first guests to arrive.
In order to make room for everyone, the Jiang family set up the banquet in the backyard.
The seats were arranged in the shape of a Chinese character "回", from the back garden to the pavilion, with a stone bridge in the middle. The area was large enough to accommodate hundreds of people.
The seats for the Li family members were arranged in the middle, which was the most eye-catching place.
After Li Qingping sat down happily in a water-green dress and a pink velvet hairpin,
Feng's eyes turned cold and shot over like a sharp arrow!
Li Qiqiao also rubbed her hands vigorously, her eyes flashing with anger. She tried to suppress her impulse to hit Li Qingping.
"I really don't know how Miss Li can have the nerve to do so. She did so many things behind our family's back and wanted to harm our Nuobao. Now she can sit there without any shame. Did her conscience come from her mother's womb when she was born?" Li Qiqiao's chest rose and fell violently, and she couldn't help but curse in a low voice.
Feng didn't want others to notice, so she restrained her expression and said, "It doesn't matter. Let her be proud for a while. Anyway, today, I must tear off her face and expose her true face in front of all the dignitaries in Beijing!"
Not long after, the guests gradually arrived.
Madam Wu and the others were all dressed very simply, after all, the princess was still sick on the surface.
But when they passed the middle seat and saw Li Qingping's gorgeous dress, she and several other ladies frowned.
This girl really doesn't know the seriousness of the matter!
After everyone was seated, Feng came out from behind the screen, holding a handkerchief and rubbing her eyes until they were red.
Many of the women present came forward to comfort her.
"Madam Jiang, don't be sad, the princess will be safe."
"Yes, our princess is blessed by heaven."
After Feng pretended to be polite, she told them to leave them alone and eat and drink as if it were a normal banquet.
Everyone thought she was generous and decent, and couldn't help but sigh even more, how could such a good Jiang family suffer such a disaster.
At this time, Madam Bai looked around and muttered to the people around her.
"I heard that the Jiang family has been using Doctor Wu, who is a miracle doctor, but eggs cannot be put in one basket. Now that he has no other options, the Jiang family should look for other doctors."
Someone couldn't help but agree, "Yes, each doctor has his own strengths. When I was giving birth, I found a doctor who was good at treating internal diseases, but I was almost delayed. Later I found out that he didn't know anything about women's diseases. Maybe this miracle doctor Wu is also... If you don't understand something, why don't we recommend a few doctors to the Jiang family? "
Li Qiqiao saw the opportunity, pursed her lips, and immediately interrupted, "What you don't know is that our Doctor Wu knows internal diseases and can understand the tendons and bones. Even if the doctors in the Yu Hospital are added together, they will be surpassed by him. He is definitely an almighty doctor. There is no need to doubt it."
In fact, it's not that people don't believe in Doctor Wu's ability.
It's just that people eat a variety of grains and have complicated diseases. Even the most powerful doctors may not be able to take care of all. Finding a few more is just for the sake of safety.
But Li Qiqiao's words were so exaggerated that it made people suspicious. Is this Doctor Wu really that powerful?
At this time, Li Qingping also raised her head curiously and looked at Doctor Wu.
But soon, her sight fell on Sun Chunxue again. After seeing the woman with yellow spots on her face and a thick body, she couldn't help but pursed her lips in disdain. At
this moment, Doctor Wu also stood up, pretending to be proud.
Anyway, in order to vent his anger for the good boy, he would sacrifice a little bit of his image, which was nothing.
"Humph, someone doubts my ability?" He strode to the middle, stroked his beard and snorted, "The prosthesis I made can go around the Jiang Mansion when connected. You can go to the palace to ask, which doctor has this ability?"
The tone was a bit crazy, but some of the noble ladies who had been addicted to his ointment couldn't help but nod secretly.
At this time, Doctor Wu narrowed his eyes, and suddenly looked at Mrs. Bai's face, stepped forward and stared at her hands, "Look at your forehead, your palm is red, and the thenares are purple. In addition to excessive liver fire, you must also have bile stasis. But why do you feel bitter in your mouth every morning when you wake up?"
Mrs. Bai was suddenly called, and her eyes were startled.
"This... How do you know? Indeed, when I get up in the morning recently, my mouth is bitter every time I move. I thought it was because I drank too much tea at night, and I never told anyone about it." Mrs. Bai subconsciously smacked her lips. Doctor
Wu hummed confidently, "Look, smell, ask, and feel". Some diseases can actually be diagnosed by "looking", which is a piece of cake for him.
Then, he stared at the other two women, pointing out that one of them was anemic and often felt short and dizzy, while the other had a hot stomach and could not eat.
Several people were called one after another,
and all of them were diagnosed with the right symptoms. Some of them even didn't take it seriously, let alone consult a doctor!
At this moment, all the guests were attracted, and their eyes turned from suspicion to admiration when they looked at Doctor Wu!
It seems that this miracle doctor is really not fake.
At this moment, Doctor Wu suddenly turned around and stared at Li Qingping's face again.
He looked at her twice and frowned fiercely, "Oh, why does this girl look so strange! The center of her face is pale and gray, which is caused by the loss of qi and blood, abdominal congestion, and depression. I wonder if you can let me feel your pulse and find out the cause as soon as possible. This can't be delayed."
Hearing this, Li Hutu was extremely nervous and hurriedly stood up to ask the miracle doctor for help.
But Li Qingping's face turned pale. She hid her wrists behind her body and stared nervously, "No, no need. I'm in good health. I won't bother the doctor."
After all, her body was not good enough for others to find out the truth.
But the Jiang family wanted her to reveal the truth, so how could they let her escape easily?
So in front of everyone, Li Qiqiao came over and said with a fake smile, "Miss Li, don't worry. You don't have to be afraid of asking about your illness. You are the daughter of the princess's tutor, so we are so concerned." "
But you are so resistant now. Isn't it because you are not afraid of seeing a doctor, but because you think the doctor hired by my Jiang family is not good enough and you can't trust our family?" She deliberately provoked again.
Li Qingping was stunned for a moment. She shook her head hurriedly. Of course, she didn't mean that, and she was even more afraid of making the Jiang family unhappy.
However, while she was stunned, Li Qiqiao suddenly grabbed her arm and put a piece of cloth on it.
Before Li Qingping could react and struggle, Doctor Wu saw the opportunity and quickly put his hand over!
