Chapter 162 We Are on the Same Side
Lu Shiyin snorted, "I don't need it. Zhao Shuning just used her sect's unique Ice Skin Jade Dew Cream on me. My face will be healed in less than a month."
Xiao Baozhu frowned slightly. "Zhao Shuning has a bad character and is not trustworthy. Especially the medicine she gave you, you can't use it carelessly. If your face gets rotten, you won't even have a place to cry."
Lu Shiyin's heart skipped a beat, but when she thought that Zhao Shuning had the ability to take care of Xiao Wanzhen's health, the balance in her heart tilted.
"If she's not trustworthy, are you trustworthy enough for me? Who knows if there's anything wrong with the medicine you gave her, huh?"
After hearing this, Xiao Baozhu was so angry that she immediately took the medicine back.
"You are so ungrateful! I'd rather throw this medicine away than give it to you!"
Xiao Baozhu turned to leave, then turned back, angrily saying, "I know exactly what you're thinking, but I advise you to take a break. Not to mention that your face is ruined and you can't run for the election, even if you had a chance, my Sixth Brother wouldn't look down on you. He already has someone in mind!"
Lu Shiyin's expression suddenly changed. "Who is that person?"
Xiao Baozhu blurted out: "Of course it's my sister Ran..."
After she finished speaking, she realized that she had said something wrong and covered her mouth.
Two people told her about this within one day. Even if Lu Shiyin had a little doubt, she had completely given up hope.
She cursed angrily, "Shameless slut!"
Xiao Baozhu immediately defended her son, "Who are you scolding?"
"I will scold anyone who shamelessly seduces others!"
Xiao Baozhu's face was filled with indignation. "It's clearly Sister Ran that Sixth Prince has his eye on. He even invited her to join him for a spring outing tomorrow, right on the moat, on the Furong Boat of the Jingchun Boat. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself. But don't humiliate yourself when you do."
After saying this, Xiao Baozhu turned around and left angrily. Lu Shiyin was so angry that she threw a set of teacups hard.
She was just worried that she couldn't find an opportunity to take action against that bitch Lu Zhiran. If that's the case, just wait and see tomorrow!
Xiao Baozhu left the Lu Mansion and went to see Lu Zhiran without stopping, repeating what she had said.
"Well, I guess I didn't say anything wrong or missed anything, right?"
"No, you performed very well and made the key messages clear."
Xiao Baozhu patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. "That's great! I was afraid I'd be exposed. Have you made all the arrangements? Is tomorrow's plan feasible?"
"Everything is ready, only the east wind is lacking. Whether it will succeed or not will depend on tomorrow."
Xiao Baozhu is not the type to worry about things that may happen out of nothing. She has done what she should do and will not worry about anything else.
She thought of something and felt a little angry.
"That Lu Shiyin is really ungrateful. I hesitated for a long time before I was willing to give her the plaster that Ah Sheng gave me, but she would rather believe Zhao Shuning than me. Ha, I want to see if Zhao Shuning can cure her face!"
When Lu Zhiran heard this, her eyes moved.
"What medicine did Zhao Shuning give her?"
"It seems to be called something like Ice Skin and Jade Bone Cream."
Lu Zhiran corrected, "Is it the Ice Jade Dew Cream?"
Xiao Baozhu slapped her forehead and said, "Yes, it's the Ice Skin Jade Dew Cream. How did you know? Have you heard of this medicine? Can it really heal scars?"
Lu Zhiran nodded, "Yes, if you use the medicine regularly, the injured area will recover as before. If you use it on your entire face, it will make your skin look ten times more beautiful."
Xiao Baozhu's eyes widened in shock. "Is it really that effective? I didn't expect Zhao Shuning to actually have such abilities."
A hint of coldness flashed across Lu Zhiran's face. "But she certainly didn't tell Miss Lu that this medicine has a fatal problem."
"What?"
"Long-term use may cause infertility."
In his previous life, Zhao Shuning took out this medicine and presented it to Concubine Li. At that time, she did not hide the disadvantages of this medicine.
Concubine Li no longer needed to give birth to secure her position, so she used this medicine for the sake of beauty.
In just one month, she looked several years younger.
Afterwards, this medicine became popular among the elderly ladies in Beijing. Zhao Shuning's reputation as a miracle doctor became more solid, and he made a lot of money from this medicine.
Xiao Baozhu gasped in shock.
"She, she is so bold!"
Every time, her boldness always refreshes her cognition.
"She has always been bold and reckless, and will do anything to achieve her goals."
Otherwise, she would not have earned her current status and position.
Xiao Baozhu said indignantly, "Should we expose her then?"
Countless ways of setting up a counterattack flashed through Lu Zhiran's mind, but he never thought of exposing her at this time.
The evil consequences have not yet occurred. How can we make her receive the punishment she deserves by exposing it now?
What's more, given Zhao Shuning's cunningness, she also has many ways to defend herself.
However, if that happened, Lu Shiyin would also become a chess piece in her plan. Her hands were already stained with blood, so she didn't care about having one more.
But, would Xiao Baozhu think that she and Zhao Shuning are both evil people who will do anything to achieve their goals?
While Lu Zhiran was considering how to start the conversation, Xiao Baozhu patted her head first.
"Look at my stupid brain, I'm talking nonsense again. What's the point of exposing it now? Zhao Shuning will definitely clear himself of all charges. Let's just pretend we don't know. Once the poison has taken hold, I'll go tell Lu Shiyin about it. I'm not afraid she won't believe me."
Lu Zhiran was a little surprised. "Do you think that what we did is as insidious as what Zhao Shuning did?"
Xiao Baozhu said shamelessly, "If others frame us, that's insidious. If we plot against them, that's justified and they deserve it!"
Lu Zhiran couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "What if I were to kill people and set fire to things for no reason?"
Xiao Baozhu patted her chest and said, "Sister Ran, we are on the same side. If you kill people and set fires, I will destroy the bodies for you."
Lu Zhiran was just joking, but after hearing her unhesitating words, his heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then there was an indescribable warmth.
In front of her true friends, she doesn't need to hide her true appearance, nor does she need to have unnecessary worries.
Because friends will stand by you unconditionally.
Xiao Baozhu seems simple, but she grew up in the harem after all, and is not a real naive person.
She understands one thing: even if you don't provoke others, if you block their way, they will not let you go.
In this case, excessive kindness is useless and may even backfire on oneself.
"I warned her before, but she didn't believe me. Even if I told her the medicine was problematic, she wouldn't necessarily believe me. Instead, she might even suspect I had ulterior motives. Why should I do something so thankless?"
Lu Zhiran looked at Xiao Baozhu and felt that she seemed to have grown a lot.
Sure enough, if you do more things, you will gain experience.
Her time at Jinxiufang was not in vain.
