Chapter 223 Eyes Get Bigger
Chapter 223 Eyes Get Bigger
The woman was so angry that she raised her hand and swung it at her. Yu Jiuer leaned back and dodged it easily. At the same time, she said with a playful smile: "Don't be angry, sister! With your looks, if you dress up a little, it will be easy for you to capture a man, right?"
"Do I need you to tell me that?" The woman was a little exasperated.
Yu Jiuer added: "It's a pity that you have single eyelids. Your eyes look small and dull. When you smile, they almost become a slit. The most important thing is that there are rumors among the people that women with single eyelids are reincarnated foxes and are restless... Sister, don't get angry first. I can make your eyes look bigger. Do you want to try it?"
"What did you say? Say it again!"
Yu Jiuer repeated what she said again.
The woman hesitated for a moment and looked her up and down suspiciously.
The maid beside the woman leaned close to her ear and said, "Miss, why don't you let her try? If it doesn't work, we won't lose anything! Just treat it as a way to kill time!"
The woman said angrily, "I'll let you try. If you can't make my eyes bigger and try to escape... then you're dead!"
Yu Jiuer raised her hand and swore: "I promise that my decision will astonish all of you. If it fails, I will let you do whatever you want and I won't say a word!"
"Why are you so kind to help me? Are you hoping that I will let you go? I advise you not to have such wishful thinking. I don't have the right to do so, and I won't help you escape." The woman was not blinded by her rationality.
Yu Jiuer said innocently, "How could I be so stupid as to think you could let me go? Now that it has come to this, I just want to beg my sister to let me live a better life!"
"If you don't do anything weird, no one will bother you for the time being!" The woman looked proud and asked anxiously what she was most concerned about, "How can you help me make my eyes bigger?"
Yu Jiuer said confidently: "It is impossible to enlarge your eyes, but I can use makeup to make your eyes look bright and lively, as if you are a different person!"
"Really?" This really made her happy.
"It's truer than gold! But sister needs to go to Linglong Pavilion to buy a set of 'Qingyu' cosmetics and skin care products. Only the 'Qingyu' there can achieve this effect!" Yu Jiuer continued to set a trap for her.
The woman smiled and said, "That's not difficult. I'll ask the maid to buy it right away. Just wait!"
She was about to leave when Yu Jiuer asked again, "Sister, may I know your name?"
"Just call me Shuang'er!"
"Okay, Sister Shuang'er!" Yu Jiuer took the opportunity to make a request, "Could you please, Sister Shuang'er, change me to a more comfortable room? I promise to be obedient!!"
Shuang'er pondered for a moment, walked out of the door and said to the guards on both sides: "Lock her in the west wing! She can't escape even if she is left out in the cold! The master didn't stipulate that she must be locked up in the woodshed, right?"
The two people at the door seemed to be hesitating.
Yu Jiuer couldn't wait to stick her head out of the door and said to the two men, "Two big brothers, I promise to cooperate with you in your work. Can you also be kind and let me live a more comfortable life?"
The two men at the door paused. Aren't prisoners usually supposed to stay in the woodshed?
Yu Jiuer showed a pitiful expression, and smiled bitterly at them, "It's still cold in the spring, and I don't even have a bed to stay here. I'm weak and will get sick, and it will be difficult for you to report to me, right? Are you afraid that a weak woman like me will run away?"
Only then did they move her to the west wing with cold faces.
Yu Jiuer took the opportunity to take a quick look at the surroundings.
This should be a place like a mountain villa. There are lush trees, carved railings and painted buildings, and every scene seems to be carefully taken care of by someone.
Such a place is not something that ordinary people can have.
But this place looks very big, and she doesn’t even know the direction of the gate. It seems difficult to escape!
Not long after Yu Jiuer finished eating and lay down in the west wing, Shuang'er came to her with "Qingyu" in her hand.
Yu Jiuer roughly estimated the time. It was about three or four hours from the time Shuang'er left.
Given Shuang'er's eagerness to become beautiful, she would have sent her maid to Linglong Pavilion to buy Qingyu as soon as she returned.
That being said, this place is only a little over an hour away from Linglong Pavilion.
She is still within the capital!
Maybe the other party felt that the most dangerous person was the safest, so he did not pull her out of the capital; or maybe it was difficult for him to leave the city, and he was afraid of being discovered by Jun Mo on the way, so he directly chose a nearby place and did not dare to act rashly for the time being?
The only person who can own such a large manor in the capital must be a royal relative.
The one who kidnapped her was a member of the royal family!
After this analysis, Yu Jiuer could roughly guess who had captured her.
Who else could it be except the eldest prince or the fifth prince?
It’s impossible for the Third Prince to snatch someone away from his own mother, right?
While Yu Jiuer was putting makeup on Shuang'er, she continued to ask questions: "Sister Shuang'er, you must have lived here for a long time, right? This place looks quite old!"
“Almost ten years!”
"It's been ten years and I can't even have a child. I've really wronged you!" Yu Jiuer started to get close to her, "It's not easy for us women!"
"Who says it's not?"
"But I see it's quite quiet here. It's such a big place, and you only have two or three maids around you, plus a few maids doing cleaning outside. It's almost deserted. Aren't you lonely?" After asking, Yu Jiuer looked at Shuang'er cautiously with a sympathetic expression.
Shuang'er chuckled: "It used to be quite lively, but because of your arrival, this place has been cleared out! I have nowhere to go, so the master agreed to let me stay here!"
Seeing that her tone had softened, Yu Jiuer asked tentatively, "Who is your master..."
"Concubine Yu, don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask, lest the trust that we have just established disappear completely!" Shuang'er immediately became alert.
Yu Jiuer chuckled and said, "In fact, even if you didn't say it, I could probably guess that our prince only has a few opponents. Your master has done it, is there anyone else he wants to frame?"
"Don't worry about that! You will never get any news about the master from me! If you obey me, I will make your life better. Otherwise..."
"My dear sister, I am wrong, isn't it okay? I am a talkative person and I like to chat whenever I have nothing to do. If I say something I shouldn't say, please forgive me!"
The topic ended there. Neither of them spoke. Only the sound of Yu Jiuer putting on makeup could be heard.
Not long after, Yu Jiuer pushed the mirror in front of her: "The makeup is done! Look, has it changed?"
Most of the mirrors used by wealthy families in the Dadong Dynasty were glass mirrors that were smuggled in from the Western Regions and sold. They were similar to modern mirrors and could see very clearly.
