After running with the ball, he criticized the villain and his hair grew old overnight.

The madam swayed onto the stage and said, "I'll be here soon. My lords, just wait."

"Bang!" Someone took a tea cup and smashed it on the stage. The madam screamed and ran away in fright.

The audience in the audience burst into chaos, "Mei Xiang! Mei Xiang!"

Yu Youyou blocked her ears, the sound was too loud, and wanted to stay away from them and walk to the second floor.

The madam asked eagerly, "What's going on? Mei Xiang's chain slipped at the critical moment. She is going to destroy our Zuixiang Tower. Is she okay?"

"It's not healed yet. Mom, please wait a moment." The maid's voice was shaking when she spoke, and the madam realized something was wrong and hurried to Mei Xiang's house.

When he saw Mei Xiang, who was dressed up, she was still sitting slowly in front of the mirror, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you agree that the performance will start at dusk? It's already dark, why don't you go out?"

Mei Xiang turned to look at her, and the madam was so frightened that she exclaimed, "What's wrong with your face?"

I saw that Mei Xiang's face was covered with red rashes, and she was completely changed beyond recognition.

Mei Xiang shook her head, her face full of panic, "Mom, I don't know. It's been like this since I woke up this morning. I thought it would get better slowly, but I didn't tell you, but the rashes on my face are getting more and more."

Seeing this, the madam slapped her thigh and said, "It's over, it's over, it's over for today."

Mei Xiang was also panicked, "Mom, I'm afraid it's not disfigured, right?"

The madam was about to burst into tears, "Hey, your disfigurement is not a big deal. If you offend those dignitaries outside, who will take care of it?"

"Then what should I do now? How can I go out to meet people like this?"

"It's over, it's over." The madam kept saying these two words.

"It's all over today. You collected so much money but you can't show up on time. What should I do?"

Mei Xiang was also very anxious, "No amount of makeup can cover the rash on my face, so there's nothing I can do."

"Otherwise, Mom, I'll go dancing with my veil on."

"No, what if they ask for the veil to be unveiled? We can't fool them. If they are discovered, it will be over." The old madam turned around anxiously, knowing that if Mei Xiang did not appear, he would not be able to stabilize those people.

"Mom, what happened? Why hasn't Mei Xiang come on stage? Those people are about to demolish Zuixiang Tower." A confused voice sounded outside the door.

The person who came here was Tao Hong, the former oiran. She was considered an old man in the most fragrant building. However, she and Mei Xiang didn't deal with each other very much on weekdays. The madam's eyes lit up and she said, "I think you can let Tao Hong go for you."

"No." Mei Xiang said, she didn't want to take advantage of her.

"Sister Taohong has never learned that part of my dance. Besides, our bodies are too different. Others will tell at a glance that she is fake. I'm afraid it won't end at that time."

"Then what should I do? You guys have to tell me." The old bustard was so anxious that he almost cried, waving the handkerchief back and forth in his hand.

Taohua agreed, "I think mom's method is okay. Mei Xiang is not the time to argue. If she doesn't go out to stabilize them, they might just break in. Anyway, I'm wearing a veil and thick clothes. Who would recognize me?" come out."

Mei Xiang sneered, "Sister Taohong, you are considered an old man in the building. You should know what it is to deceive powerful people."

"I'm saving you now, Mei Xiang, why are you talking?"

The madam interrupted the two of them, "Okay, okay, stop arguing. I'll go take a look. If it doesn't work, let Taohong do it."

Mei Xiang covered her face and looked at Tao Hong, "I didn't know that beast was harming me behind my back. If I knew, I would never spare her."

Taohong glanced at her, looking frightened, "I'm afraid you ate something you shouldn't have eaten. You'd be scared to death if you went out with this face."

Mei Xiang felt unhappy, but there was nothing she could do about it. Tao Hong covered her mouth with her hands, as if it would be contagious to her. Mei Xiang was very unhappy, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Taohong: "I'm going to prepare. Don't worry, I'm using your name and I won't show my face."

Mei Xiang gritted her teeth. Of course she knew that she would not show her face. She knew exactly what Tao Hong was planning. When she really went up, she was afraid that she would directly ruin her reputation and make people laugh. This was not the case. most severe.

What she wants is her position as the oiran. When she lost to the oiran competition, Taohong always hated her and disobeyed her. Now she wants to overthrow her.

Mei Xiang knew how difficult it would be for an outdated courtesan to live in this building. What should she do?

Suddenly a head appeared outside the door, "Maybe I can help you."

"Who are you?" Mei Xiang quickly covered her face.

"I came to see you perform, but you seem to have encountered a problem."

"How do you want to help me?" Mei Xiang looked at the man who came in warily. The man had picturesque features and a naughty smile on his lips, making him look like a pretty boy.

"I can help you deal with the rash on your face so that you can successfully perform on stage."

"What is your purpose?" Mei Xiang took the time to ask.

Yu Youyou made a money gesture, "Of course this is what I want."

Mei Xiang hesitated, "Are you really not going to lie to me?"

Yu Youyou was speechless, "Is there any benefit in lying to you to confront me?"

Mei Xiang hesitated, but Yu Youyou told the truth, "I can help you cover the rash on your face, just half a cup of tea."

Mei Xiang thought for a while and said, "Okay, then help me, and I will give you one hundred taels of silver."

"I want five hundred taels."

"You are so open-mouthed, it's simply ridiculous."

Yu Youyou raised her eyebrows, "Miss Mei Xiang, I don't need to tell you how much dividends you can get from a performance today. One person has to pay twenty taels for admission. There are about a hundred people outside, not counting those dignitaries. reward."

"If you think about it again, if you can't perform on stage today, the loss will not be as simple as five hundred taels."

Mei Xiang's face turned pale. This person actually knew so much. She thought for a while and said, "I promise you."

Yu Youyou: "Deal."

"Xiaolan, go and tell mom, I can be on stage in just half a cup of tea." Mei Xiang shouted to the door.

Yu Youyou started to put makeup on her. Time was tight, so her speed increased. She always took out boxes of various cosmetics from her arms.

Women love beauty. Obviously, the box is the same as hers, and the ones she uses are the same. Moreover, her tools are more beautiful than hers, and she has a lot of eyebrow pencils.

Mei Xiang was a little curious, "Are these all rouge and gouache?"

Yu Youyou patted her face with the powder puff in her hand, "Yes, it may cause some damage to your skin after applying makeup. I suggest you see a doctor as soon as possible after the performance."

Mei Xiang looked at his face so close. After all, she was a man and felt a little uncomfortable. She looked at her applying various smears on her face. Her eyes were completely attracted to her face. Only then did she realize that her eyelashes were very long and did not look like one. The man's eyes fell on her earlobe, and she was stunned, "Who are you?"
