Chapter 1318: Coming to the Door

Practicing, of course, was to compete with the girls from these rich families in advance.

Based on the current information, Brother Shao’s family should be either rich or noble. She did not know if they were easy to get along with.

If there was someone difficult to deal with, wouldn’t she have to get used to it first?

Shao Qingyuan raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding.

However, even if Gu Yundong told him not to care about this matter, when Imperial Physician Cui came to visit or invited him to their cabin, Shao Qingyuan still refused.

Imperial Physician Cui felt that it was a pity at first, but after a few more times, he became dissatisfied with Shao Qingyuan. He felt that if a young man started to be arrogant and rude without taking his senior seriously, he would probably not be able to go far in the future.

As for Gu Yundong, she deliberately did not go to the small kitchen from before and changed to another place to continue cooking.

As a result, she did not see Miss Cui for two days.

On the third day, Miss Cui could not hold back and knocked on Gu Yundong’s cabin door.

As soon as the door opened, she looked inside.

Miss Cui’s eyes were filled with disappointment and relief when she didn’t see Shao Qingyuan.

Gu Yundong stood at the door and saw her expression clearly. “Miss Cui, why are you here?”

“Mrs…. Shao.” Cui Lan took a deep breath and looked at Gu Yundong. “Last time, you asked me for rouge ointment, but I didn’t see you in the small kitchen. There were many girls who bought rouge ointment these two days. I only have two boxes on hand, so I came to ask you if you still want it.”

Gu Yundong blinked. After a moment, she came to a realization. She slapped her forehead and said, “Look at me. I forgot about this that day. When I carried the food box back to my room, my husband happened to be talking to me about something. Once he started talking, it was endless. Didn’t I forget about this? When I thought about it later, it was already the next day. I thought that it would be fine. It wouldn’t be good to look for him again.”

Cui Lan said, “Really? Then why did Mrs. Shao change the kitchen these two days?”

“Sigh, it’s all because of my husband. Recently, he’s become more and more picky. He said that the food I cooked two days ago always had the smell of medicine, and he ate as if he was drinking medicine. I thought that it was because Miss Cui was brewing medicine at the side? That’s why I changed the kitchen.”

Cui Lan was speechless. She actually had a good reason?

Gu Yundong tilted her head. “I don’t want Miss Cui’s rouge ointment. My husband doesn’t like me to put too much makeup on my face. I have to let you down.”

Cui Lan clenched her fists slightly. This woman kept calling him husband, as if others did not know that their relationship was great.

However, there was a saying that went, the more a woman lacked something, the more she cared about it, and the more she would show off.

She kept mentioning how Shao Qingyuan doted on her and loved her. Wasn’t it because she wasn’t confident?

She narrowed her eyes and sized up Gu Yundong. She had thought that this was an ignorant village woman, but now it seemed that she had some tricks up her sleeve.

It was just that these methods were not presentable and she could only show off.

Cui Lan knew that she was not as eloquent as Gu Yundong, but her brain was better than hers.

“Since Mrs. Shao doesn’t want it, I’ll take it back.”

As expected, she simply put away the rouge cream and turned around to leave.

Gu Yundong stood at the door of the cabin and watched her leave with a smile.

Only when Cui Lan had completely disappeared did she turn around and prepare to close the cabin door.

Unexpectedly, two people happened to walk over from the corridor in front. As they walked, they turned their heads to look in Cui Lan’s direction.
