Chapter 106 Mid-Autumn Family Feast



"Kangtai!"

"Young Master, I know I was wrong, but I really don't know how to do women's makeup!" Kang Tai immediately knelt down in shame and begged for forgiveness when he saw that Fu Hanlai was angry and embarrassed.

He really doesn't know how!

In the end, Fu Hanlai had to wipe it off again. As he clumsily tried to clean it up himself, Jiang Xuelin couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Do you want me to help you? Or you could ask Green Ivy to help you this time."

Fu Hanlai paused, then turned to look at Jiang Xuelin, who was smiling, and asked, "You think you can do it?"

To be honest, I'm not used to girls getting close to me.

However, Jiang Xuelin is an exception, after all, he has fought with Jiang Xuelin countless times.

"Don't look down on me, of course I can do it." It's just not as good as the green ivy.

To prove that she could do it, Jiang Xuelin decided to take the stage herself.

She took out a clean, soft handkerchief, dampened it with water, and wiped away the pearl powder around Fu Hanlai's eyes. Then she dried the water with a dry handkerchief before carefully helping Fu Hanlai with his treatment.

For convenience, Fu Hanlai had already turned around to face Jiang Xuelin, watching as she carefully and gently applied the white pearl powder evenly and lightly around Fu Hanlai's eyes.

This was a delicate task; if done poorly, it wouldn't achieve the desired concealing effect. Jiang Xuelin bent down, carefully and attentively applying makeup to Fu Hanlai. Fu Hanlai, looking at that bright and flamboyant face and the seriousness in her eyes, couldn't help but be taken aback.

I noticed Jiang Xuelin's beauty mark under her eye again.

That beauty mark under my eye is such a nuisance!

It's easy for people to stare at it if you're not careful. It's just a beauty mark under the eye, what's so interesting about it?

Tsk!

However, as time went by, Jiang Xuelin noticed that Fu Hanlai's skin seemed a little off.

Is it a little red?

Jiang Xue stopped, took a step back, and used her fingers to lift Fu Hanlai's chin, making him lift his face slightly. She looked him up, down, left, and right, and finally confirmed that it was not an illusion; he was indeed red.

Moreover, it's becoming increasingly popular.

Is it hot?

The weather is indeed nice today, but even so, it's still the early morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the temperature isn't high. Yet Fu Hanlai's face is so red. Could it be... that he's getting a fever?

"Fu Ashou, why are you so hot? Your face is all red. Is something wrong?"

Although he seemed alright, Jiang Xuelin remembered that Fu Ashou's health wasn't very good; he had a congenital ailment, and she was genuinely worried about him getting sick.

Fu Hanlai couldn't help but want to touch his face, but he held back in the end, maintaining a serious and upright expression. "It's nothing. I was probably worried about catching a cold this morning, so I wore too many clothes. I'll take one off later. You can continue. We need to finish quickly so we can go to pay our respects to my mother and then go to the palace together."

There's no time to lose.

He couldn't very well say that Jiang Xuelin was too close and he couldn't help but feel nervous, could he?

Of course, seeing Jiang Xuelin's obvious worry, Fu Hanlai felt his face getting even hotter.

"...It's okay, we'll go out in a bit, it won't be hot anymore."

Jiang Xuelin raised an eyebrow, and after confirming that Fu Hanlai was in good spirits and was not sick or feverish, she didn't say anything more and continued to use pearl powder to cover up Fu Hanlai's dark circles.

Once everything was ready, Jiang Xuelin stood up straight with a sense of accomplishment, looked at Fu Hanlai's face, and thought that if you ignored his personality, Fu Hanlai was actually quite good-looking just by his face.

"Okay, are you satisfied now?"

Fu Hanlai immediately turned to look at himself in the bronze mirror. Apart from his face being a little red, everything else was fine, and the dark circles under his eyes were almost invisible.

I never expected Jiang Xuelin to have this skill.

"Alright, alright, let's go find Mother and the others. They must be getting impatient."

Once he was sure there were no problems, Fu Hanlai quickly jumped up and strode outside.

Jiang Xuelin followed, followed by Kang Tai and Green Ivy.

Kangtai and Luoluo exchanged a glance, their expressions conveying a meaning that neither Jiang Xuelin nor Fu Hanlai could understand.

Prince Ping and Princess Ping were already prepared and were sitting there chatting and laughing, waiting for the two children to come over.

As for the previous reprimand, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so let's not bring up those unpleasant things.

"Lin'er, is your hand feeling any better?"

After the two paid their respects, Princess Ping called Jiang Xuelin over and asked her questions.

She had already heard that when the two of them went to the Jing'an Marquis's residence yesterday, Jiang Xuelin's hand was slapped by the Jing'an Marquis's wife.

They were all swollen from the injections, which is why I asked that question.

"Thank you for your concern, Mother. After returning, I used some ice to apply cold compresses, and the swelling has gone down now."

It's okay if the swelling doesn't go down; it's just that my hand is swollen, nothing serious!

Seeing this, Princess Ping felt a little relieved, thinking that the Lady of Jing'an Marquis was still sensible and knew that she was going to the palace to attend a family banquet today, so she did not go too far.

“You’ve gotten into some trouble recently. When you get to the palace, someone might ask you about it. You don’t need to pay them any attention.”

Princess Ping was somewhat worried, so she gave some instructions.

As for who caused the trouble, it was naturally the Third Prince's faction.

Now that the Third Prince's faction almost hates Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai to death, Princess Ping is naturally a little worried. If the two sides weren't sitting together, Princess Ping would wish she could keep the other three by her side.

Not only were the two younger ones restless, but King Ping was the same!

Thinking of this, Princess Ping also felt a little tired.

Oh, what a tragedy.

After tidying up for a while, the family boarded the carriage to go to the palace.

Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai were in complete agreement; they immediately started taking a nap after getting into the carriage. Unfortunately, the Prince Ping's residence was very close to the palace, so the two of them were unable to rest for long.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and many members of the imperial family will be going to the palace. After arriving at the palace gate, Jiang Xuelin got off the carriage and followed Princess Ping to her side, acting as a dutiful daughter-in-law.

Princess Ping glared at Fu Hanlai, signaling him to tone it down today, and then took Jiang Xuelin to the Empress's palace.

As the Crown Prince's biological mother, the Empress had a very good impression of Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin because they ruined the Third Prince's plans.

Although the Jing'an Marquis's mansion did not accept her offer, it also rejected the Third Prince and even brought some things out into the open.

After sitting in the Empress's palace for a while, a palace maid came in to report that the Imperial Concubine had come to pay her respects with the Third Prince and his daughter-in-law, Fei Qing.

The Empress was slightly moved, but instead of refusing, she agreed.

It's important to know that the relationships between the Third Prince and the Fei family's daughter, and between the Prince of Ping's heir and Jiang Xuelin, are truly complicated and difficult to unravel.

Fei Qing followed behind the Third Prince. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Jiang Xuelin, and her eyes lit up almost immediately. Unfortunately, the Imperial Concubine, who disliked Jiang Xuelin extremely, was there, so she dared not move for the time being.

Jiang Xuelin nodded to Fei Qing, then looked away.

Fei Qing was stunned.
