After Wei Che left, the group continued practicing.
After all, it is something used on the face, and for the sake of their reputation, they cannot make any mistakes.
It was getting late and the dew was heavy. Everything was quiet, but the backyard of Wei's house was brightly lit with candles.
Strands of cold wind blew through the carved window lattices, gently touching the candlelight in the house, causing the swaying light and shadow to dance freely on the wall.
Su Huaiyue was concentrating on pouring the last handful of pearl powder into the porcelain bowl. The jade pestle in her hand slowly crushed the pearl powder like fine sand, making a fine and pleasant sound in the quiet night.
The cuffs of the women in the Wei family were all stained with medicine stains of varying shades.
On the table, the rice paper on which Wei Ersao had written was curled up by the wind, and the ink had dried up.
[Ding! Congratulations to the master for successfully teaching and accepting the teachings. Reward: 200 bottles of Scar Relief Cream!]
The system prompt sounded in Su Huaiyue's sea of consciousness.
The corners of Su Huaiyue's lips rose slightly, revealing a barely noticeable smile. This system is quite considerate.
"Third sister-in-law, I'm afraid your dosage of holly seeds is wrong." Wei Yunrou suddenly reached out and pressed Wei Third sister-in-law's wrist, "Just now, eldest sister-in-law clearly said three grams would be enough."
She stared closely at the porcelain spoon in Wei Sansao's hand.
When Wei San's wife heard this, her hand shook violently, and the brown and yellow powder in the porcelain spoon fell out.
A trace of panic and tension flashed across her face, and her eyes revealed a hint of annoyance.
Seeing this, Su Huaiyue gently put down the jade pestle in her hand and said gently and patiently: "Yun Rou is right, this holly seed is very strong, and a little more will burn the skin. But..."
She paused slightly, took Wei Sansao's hand, and gently ran her fingertips over the red burn marks on the back of her hand. The delicate touch seemed to carry a hint of warmth.
"Third sister-in-law's hands are good material for testing medicine."
Everyone then noticed that the back of Wei Sansao's hand, which was originally as white as snow, was now covered with densely packed tiny red marks.
These red marks are the marks left by steam from working in the kitchen every day.
At this moment, Su Huaiyue took out the scar-removing cream and applied a light blue paste on her. A magical thing happened. The red marks were fading at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She was delighted. She didn't expect that this thing would be so useful. She would study it carefully when she had time. If she could sell it in a beauty shop, she would make a lot of money.
"Sister-in-law, what is this? It actually has such magical effects." Everyone was amazed by the paste. Sister-in-law Wei couldn't help but ask because she wanted to learn.
"This thing is called Scar Relief Cream. I don't need to tell you how effective it is."
"This is a really good thing. If I sell it, I should be able to fetch quite a bit of silver."
Mrs. Wei's thoughts coincided with hers. "Indeed, but it's better to have a limited quantity of this stuff. If too much is produced at once and everyone has it, then it won't be worth much."
"Okay, let's stop here for today. It's already very late. Everyone should go back and rest. We still have to go to the shop tomorrow to make preparations for the opening." Su Huaiyue asked everyone to put away their things.
The day after tomorrow, Wei Yunrou gathered the maids in the beauty shop for final training before opening, so she must clean up the place tomorrow.
Everyone knew that tomorrow's work would be quite heavy, so they said goodbye to Su Huaiyue and left.
Just as they left, the sound of porcelain breaking suddenly came from the east wing.
The sound was crisp and abrupt, breaking the tranquility of the night.
The housekeeper rushed into Su Huaiyue's room in a panic, his hair disheveled like weeds, his face full of fear and anxiety.
"Miss Su, something bad has happened! The old lady coughed up blood and fainted!" His voice trembled, filled with endless worry and fear.
When Su Huaiyue heard the news, her face darkened instantly. She lifted her skirt and ran away quickly, her steps hurried and flustered.
Why would he suddenly cough up blood for no reason?
When Su Huaiyue rushed to the east wing, he saw that the old lady's face was pale, her lips were bloodless, and she was lying motionless on the bed, with a few spots of scarlet on her chest.
"Grandma!" Su Huaiyue exclaimed and hurried forward to take her pulse.
This pulse... why is it so weak and chaotic? It feels like an invisible force is wreaking havoc in the heart.
Su Huaiyue's heart sank. It seemed that the old lady's condition was far more serious than he had imagined.
Suddenly I remembered that there seemed to be the heart-nourishing pills that the system rewarded me last time in my space. I hope they can work.
She hurriedly took out the Yangxin Pills from the space and fed them to the old lady.
After a while, the old lady's complexion improved slightly and her breathing became more stable.
"What on earth is going on?" Su Huaiyue looked at the maid who was serving nervously beside her.
The maid's name was Cui Shuang, and she was specially hired by Su Huaiyue.
They were often busy running around outside and were afraid that they would not have time to take care of Old Madam Wei, so they specially found two maids to take care of other things in the house, cooperate with the housekeeper, and take good care of the old lady.
Cui Shuang was the one who took care of the old lady in her room every night.
The maid was trembling with fear, her voice trembling: "I don't know either. I only heard the old lady say that her chest felt tight, and then she started coughing up blood, and then she fainted."
Su Huaiyue frowned. Although the old lady had some minor ailments on a daily basis, they were not so serious suddenly.
Could it be that he had been overworked before, or was there something on his mind?
Just as he was thinking about it, Wei Che and the women of the Wei family heard the news and hurried over.
Wei Che looked at Madam Wei with heavy eyes, and suddenly felt his throat a little dry.
I don’t know when my grandmother became so old.
Mingming was still very angry when he just left the capital.
"Sister-in-law, can grandma's condition get better?" Wei Yunrou is the youngest and has never experienced such a thing. Her eyes were red from crying and she asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, grandma will be fine with me here."
Su Huaiyue's tone was firm, and his eyes showed unquestionable confidence.
With Su Huaiyue's words, everyone felt a little relieved.
Su Huaiyue looked at the crowd of people standing around the bed behind him, "You should go back and have a good rest first. It's useless to be here and you can't help much. It's just asking for trouble. You still have things to do tomorrow. I'll just take care of it here by myself."
"But..." Wei Yunrou was still worried.
Seeing Wei Che was about to say something, Su Huaiyue interrupted him, "It's okay, you don't know any medical skills, even if grandma is uncomfortable, you can't solve the actual problem. Listen to me, go back first, if there is any other situation, I will let Cui Shuang call you."
Su Huaiyue stayed by the old lady's bedside all night, keeping a close eye on her condition.
Cui Shuang didn't know why Madam Wei suddenly coughed up blood, and she stayed here with Su Huaiyue trembling with fear, not daring to sleep.
Cuishuang looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, and the tears on her face had not yet dried.
