Chapter 380: Nail Art
The Queen Mother thought for a while, and then said: "Didn't you say that the girl you made a mistake about before was locked up in the firewood room in the backyard......?
When the Queen Mother thought of the despicable means that Mother Shen used against the wrong girl, she also felt a little ashamed: "Forget it, in the future, don't use this method to deal with those girls who are like flowers and jade, let's be gentle, just use some drugs to knock her down, and then find someone to tie them up, lock them up in a room, and let the big guys see it, and that's it." β
Shen's mother was stunned for a moment, and she was busy.
But he said in his heart: "Queen Mother, is your method considered gentle? Isn't it also coercion?"
The Queen Mother finally said: "As for Wen Yan, the granddaughter of Wen Xiang, the mourning family looks very good, she knows the general situation, her appearance is good, her temperament is gentle and virtuous, and she can definitely afford to take on the heavy responsibility of the crown princess, but she is not surnamed Gu, it's a pity! However, it is still good to be the side concubine of the prince......

Gu Zhirong didn't expect that she would lead this first
In the three groups, so many people signed up at once, and there were more than ten or twenty of them. After a serious look, Gu Zhirong understood.
The status of these people is not high, not the daughters of those high-ranking officials who are in the first, second and third grades, they are all the daughters of officials below the prefect of the fifth rank, and some of them are still from the seventh rank or from the seventh rank. Gu Zhirong couldn't help but smile a little bitterly, it seemed that the cooking profession was really abandoned by those noble ladies who regarded themselves as high. But if it weren't for the ladies in the kitchen, what would the ladies and ladies eat? Don't you have to starve to death?
Gu Zhirong smiled self-deprecatingly, gathered everyone together, and was about to say something, when he heard a sound of footsteps from behind, a clear and pleasant, extremely comfortable sounding voice sounded, and the sound was steady. But it's so soft that people can't help but want to get close.
As soon as he heard this, Gu Zhirong's mood suddenly improved. What she didn't expect was. The granddaughter of a dignified member of the imperial court also came to cheer her on, so she happily turned around and greeted Wen Yan who came over: "Sister Wen Yan, why are you here?"
Speaking of this Wen Yan, Gu Zhirong rarely had contact with her. It was only at that time at the Heroes Meeting. She said a few words for herself in front of the prince, which made her deeply impressed, and it turned out that this Wenyan girl was also a good-hearted girl.
"What, aren't I welcome to join your third group?" Wen Yan asked with a smile.
Gu Zhirong hurriedly said: "Of course welcome, since someone takes the initiative to come to the door, how can there be any reason to refuse the door? β
Wen Yan said modestly: "I have eaten the noodles made by the Gu family's sister, they are really delicious." I've never tasted anything so delicious. So, I'm here to help my sister. Just make a move, just don't add to the chaos, my sister doesn't dislike me. β
Gu Zhirong hurriedly said, "Sister Wen is humble. β
Mu Jin on the side whispered to Lu Shui standing beside her: "This Wen girl is really modest, when it comes to this cooking skill, who doesn't know that there is a famous imperial chef at the end of her mother's maiden family, and when the first emperor was in power, he liked to eat the dishes made by so many chefs in the imperial kitchen. Because of this, her mother's maiden family had a smooth journey and kept her grandfather in the position of Xiangguo. Of course, this literary appearance is really talented and learned, and the eyes of the first emperor are not something that can be mixed with fish-eyed pearls. But after that, I heard that Wen Xiang's line is particularly interested in cooking, and even the ladies in the boudoir must learn it in case of emergency, so ah, Miss Wen said that she wants to give our young lady a hand, which is really modest. β
Only then did Lu Shui suddenly realize: "It's no wonder. I'm just wondering, why the granddaughter of a good first-grade official wants to be crowded with the daughters of those sixth- and seventh-grade officials, and wants to join our group, not to have a good relationship with our young lady, but to show off her cooking skills. β
Mu Jin hurriedly stopped: "You can't say that, no matter what, in the capital, Miss Wen is the best person for our young lady, do you remember, when you were in the Heroes Club, the prince wanted to embarrass our young lady, or did this Miss Wen speak out to dissuade it?" β
Lu Shui pouted: "Anyway, I just think that this Wen girl will not be so kind to help our young lady." β
At that end, Gu Zhirong had already met Wen Yan, and Wen Yan pointed to the dozens of people behind him: "Sister Gu family, I brought these people here, they are all interested in cooking, and they are also happy to come to the kitchen to help." β
Gu Zhirong took a serious look at these dozens of people, and she recognized them, these are not the daughters of those sixth- and seventh-grade petty officials, they are basically third- and fourth-grade, and there is one who is delicate and cute, and she is still Shang Xiang, the daughter of Shang'an, the second-rank military department of the DPRK.
When Gu Zhirong looked at Shang Xiang, he couldn't help but feel funny. The daughter of this second-class member looks like a delicate lady at first glance, her ten fingers are slender and do not touch the spring water, her fingernails are also very long, and she has a beautiful nail on it, which is very beautiful. Wouldn't it be a pity to have such beautiful hands to help pick vegetables, chop wood, make fires, cook and the like?
At least those ten manicures are a pity!
Seeing Gu Zhirong looking at her hand and pointing to God, Shang Xiang thought that the nails she depicted were too beautiful and attracted Gu Zhirong's attention, of course, the purpose of her nail art was to attract everyone's attention.
Now, when someone finally noticed her beautiful nails, Shang Xiang suddenly became excited, spread out all her ten fingers, looked at Gu Zhirong with a smile and said, "Sister Gu, do you see that my nails are very beautiful? β
Gu Zhirong nodded approvingly: "Sister Shang's nails are really beautiful. β
She glanced at everyone casually, and saw that the other people's nails were only painted with dancΓ΄me, and there was no pattern, which looked much more monotonous. She remembered that nail art was a product of generations, but she didn't expect that she could see it in this era, so she said casually: "Sister Shang, these nails are so beautiful, who taught you?"
Shang Xiang said proudly: "Of course it's Cen Guifei." The last time I entered the palace, I happened to see Cen Guifei coming over, and her nails were beautifully drawn, so I asked her for advice. I didn't expect Cen Guifei to be so easy to talk to, and she passed on this set of secrets to me without much excuse. β
"You mean Cen Guifei......" Gu Zhirong's eyes widened in disbelief, if she hadn't really seen a modern nail art actually appear in front of her, she would really have doubted that she was dreaming.
In his previous life, he was also one of the avid lovers of nail art, and he also retouched his nails beautifully. In this era, there was no nail polish, so the girls who loved beauty in the Jokhang Kingdom used the fur of the antelope to rub the nails to make them shiny, and then used some corrosive flowers, such as the flowers and leaves of impatiens, to be mashed in a small bowl, and a small amount of alum was added, so that they could be used to dye their nails. Stained nails are strong and durable and won't fade for months. However, if you want to make a beautiful pattern, it will take a certain amount of work. Therefore, Gu Zhirong was extremely surprised that the incomparable concubine in the back garden of the deep palace would actually know such a modern nail art method. (To be continued.) )
