Chapter 22: Orange-colored Lipstick
"Stop!"
I thought that the two daughters of the Ministry of Rites were going to fight in front of everyone like this, but they were stopped by a low female voice.
The crowd turned their heads and looked in the direction from which the voice had come.
I saw a woman dressed in red, carrying the corners of her skirt, slowly walking forward.
There was a little more determination in her eyebrows, and she didn't look as gentle as an ordinary woman, but a little bit of a man's pride.
"The county lord. ”
"The county lord. ”
The crowd saluted.
Even Lu Caimeng had to take two steps back and curtsy to the woman.
Needless to say, this is today's protagonist - Lord Cheng Yan.
It's just that she is really different from what Lu Yunxi imagined.
Cheng Yan walked through the crowd, walked to the three of them, glanced at Lu Caimeng, and didn't pay attention to it, only stared at Li Er, waved her hand lightly, and said in a low voice, "Li Er, are you okay?"
Hearing this, not only Lu Caimeng, but also Lu Yunxi turned his head in surprise and stared at Li Er's side face.
One is the high-ranking county lord, and the other is Li'er, a famous prostitute in the capital, how could the two of them meet?
Li Er was stared at by everyone, a little uncomfortable, only curtsy and bowed, "Thank you for your concern, Li Er is fine." ”
"Sister of the county lord?" Lu Caimeng opened her mouth, pointed at Li Er, and then looked at Cheng Yan.
Cheng Yan smiled lightly, "Li Er and I hit it off at first sight, today is my honored guest who I warmly invited, not the person you call "entertaining", Li Er is my Cheng Yan's sister." If anyone of you deliberately humiliates because of Li Er's identity, you don't have to wait for the door of my county lord's mansion in the future. ”
After speaking, Cheng Yan turned her head and glanced at Lu Caimeng.
At this moment, where did Lu Caimeng dare to make a mistake, he only shook his eyes and stared at Li Er in surprise.
Seeing Cheng Yan staring at herself, she could only purse the corners of her lips, droop her head, and salute Cheng Yan reluctantly, "It's me who is rude, and I ask the county lord to forgive me." ”
Cheng Yan didn't pay any attention to Lu Caimeng, only stared at Lu Yunxi, and smiled slightly, "This girl is a righteous person, thank you for standing up for Li'er." ”
"The county lord is polite. Lu Yunxi said Wanfu, "I just can't get used to seeing someone act so recklessly based on their identity." In the final analysis, this person does not rely on the word identity to distinguish between high and low. ”
Cheng Yan looked at Lu Yunxi with interest and nodded, "It's a straight one, I like it." ”
Li Er also raised her head and glanced at Lu Yunxi, "Since this girl is Si Gongzi's friend, how can she be a bad person?"
Fang Cai Li'er kept her head down, but she didn't pay attention.
Her lip grease has already been rubbed by Lu Caimeng, and some of it has been smeared on her face.
Seeing this, Lu Yunxi hurriedly took out a handkerchief, handed it to Li Er, pointed to her cheek, and made a wiping motion.
Cheng Yan can order the maid behind her to take Li'er down to make up.
"The county lord. "How could Lu Yunxi miss such a good opportunity?
She rolled her eyes and immediately stepped forward, "Can you let me take Miss Li'er to make up?"
"You?" Cheng Yan looked at Lu Yunxi in confusion.
Seeing that this girl is also a fine dress, I didn't expect to be so enthusiastic about Li'er.
Lu Yunxi nodded hurriedly, and said secretly in her heart: Fortunately, today she knew that Si Tingyan was also going to the banquet, and she deliberately brought her latest mouth grease with her, wanting him to see if there was anything that could be improved.
How can I think that I can encounter such a good opportunity!
Li Er is a famous prostitute in the capital, and she has to show up every day to see those sons.
If she can apply her own lipstick, she will not worry about having no sales in the capital in the future, and maybe she can sell it as far as Jiangnan.
Seeing Lu Yunxi's situation, Cheng Yan couldn't refuse, so she only nodded and told the girl to take the two of them down.
Others may not be able to see Lu Yunxi's mind clearly, but Si Tingyan can see it clearly.
It seems that this Lu Yunxi is afraid that Li Er's idea has been hit.
Thinking about it, he closed his eyes slightly, staring at Lu Yunxi's back, and couldn't help but smile slightly.
In less than a stick of incense, Li Er and Lu Yunxi finally got it in order and returned to the front yard.
Li Er put on a hat again, and the tulle hung in front of her, blocking her face.
"Li'er, since I've already met you, I might as well go to the veil. Seeing this, Cheng Yan waved her hand and told her to take off the veil.
Li Er agreed, turned her head sideways, and glanced at Lu Yunxi.
Seeing that Lu Yunxi nodded at her cushion with a happy look, Li Er slowly took off her veil.
When everyone saw it clearly, they couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
saw that Li'er's lip grease had changed color.
The lips that were still bright red were as fresh as two oranges at the moment, but there was a hint of redness in the fair complexion.
"This is?" Rao is Cheng Yan, a person who didn't dress up in the past, was also surprised when she saw that color.
She looked at Li'er in surprise and waited for Li'er to give an explanation.
Li Er turned sideways and looked at Lu Yunxi.
"Return to the county lord. Lu Yunxi took a step forward, "Miss Li'er didn't follow the lipstick, I see that the girl's complexion is cold, and the blood vessels behind her ears are blue, at first glance there is a sense of alienation, if you dot orange to embellish, it will be more warm." This orange-colored lipstick is a color that I have just developed, and it can naturally highlight the original red face for girls with white complexion, and I saw that Miss Li Er was very suitable, so I simply asked her to give it a try. ”
Lu Yunxi recalled the time when she was a blogger, and the cold white skin couldn't put down this orange lipstick, and the complementary color of the lip color and skin tone would make people's temperament more outstanding.
When everyone heard this, their eyes were focused on Li Er's cheeks.
"Don't say it, this is the color of the lipstick, and Miss Li'er looks even more beautiful. ”
"yes. In the past, I only thought that Miss Li'er was beautiful, but now that she has changed her lipstick to another color, she naturally has a little more girlish feeling. ”
......
There was a lot of discussion for a while.
Lu Caimeng heard it clearly, was annoyed in his heart, and snorted.
She thought that her voice was already very low, but she didn't want to be caught by Cheng Yan.
"Miss Lu Er, but you have something to say?" Cheng Yan stared at Lu Caimeng's face and asked dissatisfiedly.
Hearing this, Lu Caimeng sighed, stood up in a panic, and looked at Cheng Yan.
She glanced at Li'er, her throat moved lightly, "Back to the county lord, the courtiers think that this orange-colored lipstick is beautiful, but my daughters in the capital have always used red lipstick." If you don't come out of the cabinet, most of them use pink lipstick. This orange color is really new. If it is not used properly, I am afraid that it will make people think that the ladies of the official eunuchs and nobles look "charming". The implication is still to belittle Li'er's low birth.
Lu Yunxi didn't look over, stared at Lu Caimeng, and laughed lightly, "Second sister is right." This person has a personal temperament, and naturally has their own suitable color. Like Miss Li'er, her skin is like cream, and she can naturally control any color. If you change to the second sister's posture, the orange color is afraid that it is not suitable, but you can try the color next to it. ”
As he spoke, Lu Yunxi had already raised his hand to take a cloth bag from Qing'er's hand and spread it out on the small square table on one side.
